Chapter 487: The Innate Celestial Furnace and the Innate Celestial Furnace p2
Garden of Heavenly Harmony.
“If I guessed correctly, his disappearance is probably related to the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow that sealed the Primordial Witch.”
The moment Yao Meng entered the courtyard, her vast spiritual sense instantly enveloped the entire area, but she didn’t find any trace of Mu Zhian.
Any cultivator who had set foot in the Garden of Heavenly Harmony would leave behind some trace detectable by her spiritual sense.
But now, she couldn’t find any trace of Mu Zhian in the entire Garden of Heavenly Harmony.
Everything related to him in his room had vanished, not even a wisp of Spiritual Energy remained.
“Why is the Heavenly Dao so wary of him?” Gong Lianyue asked softly.
“Setting aside his other secrets for now, just the Heavenly Court seats that can bestow Transcendence upon others… this power alone is enough to make the Heavenly Dao wary.”
Yao Meng silently scanned the empty courtyard: “The Heavenly Dao is the aggregate consciousness of all living beings. Anyone who might threaten the stability of the Nine Provinces will be eliminated by it from the shadows.”
Dao Integration Realm experts were still bound by the rules of heaven and earth, but Transcendence Realm experts had completely escaped them.
And if Mu Zhian was willing, he could even create nine Transcendence Realm experts.
How could the Heavenly Dao not be wary?
“But his destiny is clearly shielded, how did the Heavenly Dao discover him?” Gong Lianyue voiced the doubt in her heart.
It was precisely because Mu Zhian’s destiny was shielded that the Heavenly Dao hadn’t realized his true identity in the past.
But this time, the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow precisely locked onto Mu Zhian, why?
Yao Meng gently shook her head.
She didn’t know the reason and wasn’t in the mood to think about it now.
After all, her little man was gone after she just stepped out for a bit.
“I’ll use Time Regression to try and rewind time to a day ago.”
Yao Meng looked around the courtyard: “Although I’m not very confident, with your help, we can definitely save him before he’s attacked.”
Gong Lianyue nodded silently.
Then, she frowned slightly, staring into Yao Meng’s eyes: “What if we can’t save him even after rewinding time?”
She had the answer in her heart, but wanted to hear the Jade Empress’s response.
Yao Meng looked back, her green eyes filled with breathtaking charm, a captivating smile blooming on her face: “If he’s gone, what use do I have for this world?”
Drip…
Drip…
Raindrops froze in mid-air, then, as if rewinding strangely, the rainwater returned to the sky from the ground.
Time began to regress.
…
Rain poured down outside the courtyard.
At some unknown time, a soft white light faintly appeared in their vision. Gong Lianyue reacted almost immediately, summoning the Bronze Sword. The sword, seemingly containing myriad Sword Intents, clashed against the soft white light.
The moment Yao Meng raised her hand, a gentle Spiritual Energy enveloped Mu Zhian, pulling him out of the courtyard.
“Yao Meng? Didn’t you go find Qian’er—”
Just as Mu Zhian turned and saw Yao Meng, about to speak, the woman suddenly hugged him tightly, as if wanting to confirm his existence.
This warm and soft touch made Mu Zhian momentarily dazed and confused.
What’s going on…?
Weng!
Just as he thought of this, a sharp buzzing sound suddenly came from beside his ear. Mu Zhian abruptly looked up and saw the Bronze Sword in mid-air intercepting the white light.
“The Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow?”
Mu Zhian looked at the white light, his pupils contracting. A scene of himself enveloped by the Origin Arrow’s light suddenly flashed through his mind.
What was that scene just now… Why could I see my own future?
Just as this thought flashed through Mu Zhian’s mind, a green lotus beside him shot towards the sky, enveloping the Origin Arrow, which was already suppressed by the Bronze Sword.
The next moment, the World-Purifying Green Lotus completely sealed the arrow containing a wisp of the Heavenly Dao’s will.
Gong Lianyue slowly floated down from mid-air. Before Mu Zhian could speak, she pulled him into her embrace.
Not as big as Ruoxi’s, but definitely very soft… Mu Zhian noticed their unusual expressions and asked, “What’s wrong with you two?”
Yao Meng, unusually, didn’t separate Gong Lianyue and Mu Zhian, but just silently glanced at him and said, “Let’s go to Dexin Garden first and talk slowly.”
…
Hearing what had happened earlier, a look of understanding finally appeared on Mu Zhian’s face.
No wonder Yao Meng and Ruoxi looked like that just now. It turned out he had actually ‘disappeared’ for a moment.
Ye Lingxuan tightly held Mu Zhian’s arm. The proud young lady was usually reserved and didn’t like showing her ‘dependent’ side in front of her sister. However, from the moment Mu Zhian stepped into Dexin Garden, she clung to his arm and refused to let go.
Ye Qian also clung tightly to Mu Zhian’s other arm. Although she had only forgotten him for a moment, she was still scared.
She was afraid that one day, she would completely forget Mu Zhian’s existence again, just like today.
“Mu Lang, what are you thinking?”
Bai Ruoxi looked at the young man sitting in the hall, holding a teacup, seemingly lost in thought, and asked in a soft voice.
Mu Zhian frowned in thought: “I’m just wondering, why did that wisp of power overflowing from the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow after its seal loosened target me first, instead of sealing the Primordial Witch?”
Hearing this, a thoughtful look also appeared in their eyes.
Indeed, the Primordial Witch’s strength was a mystery, but for the Heavenly Dao to damage its own origin to seal her, it was undoubtedly an extremely dangerous existence.
So the question was… Why didn’t the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow choose to seal the Primordial Witch with all its might after its seal loosened, but attacked Mu Zhian instead?
In this silence, after an unknown amount of time, Mu Zhian looked at the rain outside and slightly collected his thoughts.
No matter how he deduced, without enough information, there wouldn’t be a conclusion. Instead of thinking about this, it was better to find some time to interrogate Gu Buxing and investigate whether there was someone behind him.
Just then, Mu Zhian suddenly noticed Yao Meng staring intently at him. Her usually calm eyes now held a complex look.
“What’s wrong? Why do you keep staring at me?” Mu Zhian asked.
“The thought of personally sending my beloved to another woman… This feeling is truly strange,” Yao Meng said faintly.
Mu Zhian was stunned. Ye Lingxuan, Ye Qian, and even Bai Ruoxi subconsciously looked at Yao Meng.
After a brief silence, Mu Zhian broke the awkward silence: “What do you mean…?”
“Luo Tan has taken an interest in you, wanting to use the Spiritual Energy from the Innate Celestial Furnace to attempt Transcendence.”
Yao Meng placed the invitation sent by Luo Tan on the table.
“Similarly, you also need her Innate Celestial Furnace for your Dao Comprehension.”
