Chapter 813 Vague Speculation
Yunxi accepted the jade slip, thanked Xunkun, and returned to her own courtyard.

After meeting at the City Lord's Mansion that day, Yunxi privately asked Xun Kun to inquire about the origin of the treasure of the Moon Sect, the second largest sect in the Demon Realm. Xun Kun was a little surprised at the time:
"I heard that the Moon Sect's most treasured artifact was stolen by an evil cultivator. As a result, the Moon Sect's leader, Yin Yue, cleansed the entire sect. Not only did he find the evil cultivator who infiltrated, but he also found spies planted by other sects and families in the Demon Realm. The matter caused quite a stir, and it seems that in the end, the most treasured artifact was not recovered."

What is the connection between the Moon Gate's most prized treasure and the events in the Ghost Realm?

Xun Kun felt that Yun Xi must have a reason for asking these questions, so he asked her directly.

Yunxi thought for a moment and then said:

"Based on Fellow Daoist Qianmei's description, Cao Yi and I both believe that the 'black hole' that appeared in the Ghost Realm might be a teleportation channel, but the operator is an evil cultivator. After taking away the high-level ghost cultivator, they only need to close the channel to leave no trace."

However, these are all my guesses. According to information I obtained from 'informers', the Moon Gate's most treasured artifact is a Time Gate. Entering it can increase cultivation time without increasing bone age, which is why it is so sought after.

I have some questions about the origin of this treasure of the sect, and I feel that the Moon Gate is hiding something. But that's understandable, since it involves the sect's secrets and some trump cards can't be easily revealed.

Moreover, when I was in the Demon Realm, I heard that the city lord's mansion in Ji Yun City had lost a secret treasure. It was rumored to be a teleportation scroll that could travel ten thousand miles, but some people who knew the inside story said that what the city lord lost was a spatial teleportation portal.

Although Ji Yuncheng was under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Demon Palace, after the item was lost, City Lord Ji sought help from the Moon Gate, saying that Sect Master Yin Yue owed him a favor, which was why he came to them for help. Afterwards, City Lord Ji's daughter, Ji Yaya, joined forces with three disciples of the Moon Gate to track down the lost treasure.

Finally, Yunxi simply handed Xun Kun a jade slip containing a record of what had happened, letting him read it himself. Of course, the part about her was slightly modified.

Xun Kun quickly read through the contents of the jade slip and realized that Yun Xi's speculation was not entirely without reason or basis. Especially since these events all occurred before the incident in the Ghost Realm, he had reason to suspect that the evil cultivators began to set up traps in the Ghost Realm after stealing the secret treasure. He estimated that the previous incidents were probably small-scale and therefore did not attract the attention of the Ghost Realm.

However, to nurture the soul of an evil god that has been dormant for countless millennia, they must need a great deal of soul power, which is why the commotion grew bigger and bigger, eventually attracting the attention of powerful beings in the Ghost Realm. If the evil cultivators make good use of these two secret treasures, they can indeed achieve the current effect.

Xun Kun handed the jade slip back to Yun Xi and said:

"If your information is accurate, then there is a high possibility that the evil cultivators used the Demonic Sect's secret treasures to ambush the ghost cultivators. I will have the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Palace search for relevant information."

"Thank you very much."

However, when Xun Kun said goodbye to Yun Xi, he hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Ranxi, you used your status as a guest elder of the Heavenly Demon Palace to interfere in this matter. Given your style, you certainly wouldn't just stand by and watch the evil cultivators succeed. Didn't you do anything?"

Although it was a question, Xun Kun's gaze at Yun Xi made him certain that she had secretly taken action.

Yunxi smiled and said:

"Buddha said: Don't say it!"

Xun Kun understood immediately after hearing this. He realized he had asked a redundant question, so he nodded and left, as if they understood each other perfectly.

Xun Kun was quick; he received a reply three days after sending the message. Ren Tianning also learned of Xun Kun's actions, but she couldn't immediately figure out why he was trying to find out the origin of the Moon Gate's treasure. Today, seeing Xun Kun give the message jade slip to Ran Xi, she guessed that he was helping Ran Xi gather information, which made her amber eyes deepen.

After reading the message jade slip sent by Xun Kun, Yun Xi frowned. Although the information was more accurate, it did not prove her speculation.

"Cao Yi, take a look at the information Xun Kun has gathered."

Yunxi handed the jade slip to Cao Yi and fell into deep thought. Could her speculation be wrong? But it shouldn't be. Both "little crescents" clearly reacted that night. Unfortunately, the "black hole" never appeared again after that, otherwise she could have verified it.

After reading the message jade slip, Cao Yi said:

"Your Excellency, your speculation may be accurate. The Moon Gate's most treasured artifact is indeed the 'Gate of Time and Space.' However, this artifact is too powerful, as it can influence the future by altering the past, allowing its holder to defy fate."

That's why the ascended ancestor of the Moon Gate split this mystical treasure into two independent gates: one is the Gate of Time, and the other is the Gate of Space. When the ancestor ascended, he took the Gate of Space with him and left the Gate of Time in the sect. This not only saved the Moon Gate from disaster but also gave the sect something to rely on.

However, it now seems that the patriarch of the other spatial gate, the Moon Gate, may not have taken it with him. Perhaps it was just a smokescreen, intended to give the Moon Gate a trump card, allowing the two gates to merge again at a crucial moment, which would bring unexpected results for the Moon Gate.

Yunxi nodded in agreement, and Cao Yi continued:
"If that's the case, then it's probably not just one door that was stolen from the Moon Gate. And if the evil cultivators have both doors in their hands, they certainly won't just make the commotion they're in now; their actions will likely be much bigger."

Yunxi thought Cao Yi's analysis made a lot of sense, because she knew very well that both doors were now in her space, and the evil cultivators hadn't managed to get either of them, yet they were still able to cause trouble in the Ghost Realm. This was something worth pondering. She sent Xun Kun to gather information, just to find out if the Moon Gate had a third door.

Now that it seems the Moon Gate doesn't have a third gate, she really can't guess how the evil cultivator can come and go freely in the Ghost Realm.

Yunxi was still unwilling to give up, and finally asked Cao Yi for the array plate that could intercept auras. She intercepted a wisp of aura from each of the two "little crescent moons" and sent it into the array plate. If an aura similar to that of the two doors appeared, the array plate would definitely react, and she would then act accordingly.

In another courtyard, Ren Tianning was also talking to Xun Kun about the Moon Gate.

"Xun Kun, Ran Xi asked you about the Moon Sect's most treasured artifact. Why don't you just ask me, the Holy Maiden, directly?"

Xun Kun paused for a moment before saying:

"Ranxi said that this was just a vague speculation of hers and had not been confirmed yet, so she privately inquired with me about the Moon Gate's treasure."

Ren Tianning raised an eyebrow and said:

"My ancestor who ascended to the Immortal Realm had a very close relationship with the ancestor of the Moon Gate. When I was very young, I did hear my elders talk about the Moon Gate's treasure. That treasure brought a lot of trouble to the Moon Gate, which is why their ancestor divided the treasure into three when he ascended."

"Divided into three? Wasn't it split into two doors?"

Xun Kun unsurprisingly grasped the key point.

"Nature is divided into three: the door, the key of time, and the key of space."
