Chapter 191 The Supervisor's Methods, A Surprise from Changqing Temple
Qin Tianjian.

The imperial carriage stopped at the entrance of the Imperial Observatory, surrounded by a group of imperial guards.

The supervisor came out to greet the emperor, his expression calm and composed, showing neither sorrow nor joy.

"This old minister pays his respects to Your Majesty."

"The supervisor, please rise."

Emperor Yuanchu said in a deep voice, and then walked straight in to the top floor of the Imperial Observatory.

Seeing Emperor Yuanchu in this state, the supervisor did not show any surprise, as if he had expected this to happen.

After the two sat down, the supervisor personally served Emperor Yuanchu a cup of spiritual tea and tentatively asked him a question.

"I wonder what brings His Majesty here in person today?"

"What is it? Hmph—with your divination skills, can't you figure it out?"

Emperor Yuanchu was still angry and snorted coldly.

The supervisor smiled without saying a word, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, and said, "Please enlighten us, Your Majesty."

Seeing this, Emperor Yuanchu sneered, inwardly cursing the supervisor as a cunning old fox who pretended to be ignorant in front of him.

"Lu Wushuang's tragic death was the work of the Ten Great Dao Courts. I request the Supervisor to assist me in deducing the identities of the candidates for the Invincible Body of the Ten Great Dao Courts."

Upon hearing Emperor Yuanchu's request, the supervisor sighed, his brow furrowed, and offered his advice:
"Your Majesty, is this really necessary?"

"If the Ten Great Courts can do it on the first day of the month, why can't I do it on the fifteenth?"

"Since they dared to attack my people, do they really think I wouldn't dare to touch them if I didn't teach them a lesson?"

Buzz!
A terrifying aura erupted from the Yuan Chu Emperor.

The power of this energy was so terrifying that even the void itself seemed unable to withstand it, emitting mournful cries.

Seeing this, the supervisor sighed and lowered his head in submission.

"It is not difficult to deduce the candidates for the invincible bodies of the ten Dao Courts."

"However, the Ten Great Dao Courts also have experts skilled in the art of celestial secrets. Your humble servant can only succeed once by taking them by surprise."

"Once the Ten Great Dao Courts discover this, they will certainly take precautions, making it much more difficult to take action next time."

"Your Majesty, are you sure you want to seize this opportunity?"

"There may not be just one candidate among the ten Dao Courts; the real candidate may not have appeared yet."

"Just do as I say."

Seeing that Emperor Yuanchu had made up his mind, the supervisor stopped trying to persuade him and said with his hands clasped:

"Your Majesty, I will now perform the divination. However, the divination will take some time. Please have some tea to calm your anger."

As he spoke, the Imperial Observatory pointed his finger, and countless starlight descended from the sky, falling into the Imperial Observatory.

As the supervisor moved his ten fingers in rapid succession, countless starlight danced on his fingertips, resembling a nebula array.

This is Zi Wei Dou Shu, one of the four great celestial secrets of China.

While the supervisor was deducing the secrets of heaven, Emperor Yuanchu picked up his teacup and took a sip of the spiritual tea.

Upon tasting the spiritual tea, an icy chill immediately rushed straight to the top of the head.

Even the anger in Emperor Yuanchu's heart was somewhat extinguished by this chill.

Emperor Yuanchu looked down and recognized the spiritual tea brewed by the supervisor as the one he had secretly kept—the once-in-a-millennium spiritual tea, Yuechan Lingyin Tea.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Yuanchu immediately understood the supervisor's plan.

"This month, the Zen Lingyin Temple has a remarkable effect on calming the mind and quelling inner demons."

“A few years ago, I issued an edict ordering you to bring it out and drink with me, but you defied the edict and hid from me for several months.”

"What? You actually took it out on your own today? That's strange!"

Emperor Yuanchu said jokingly, his tone tinged with a hint of mockery.

Seeing that the supervisor did not respond and was still using Ziwei Doushu to deduce the secrets of heaven, Emperor Yuanchu snorted coldly.

"No need to pretend anymore."

"You've even misused Zi Wei Dou Shu, what can you possibly deduce?"

"Let's abandon the idea of ​​deduce the candidates for the Ten Invincible Bodies of the Dao Court."

Upon hearing these words from Emperor Yuanchu, the starlight emanating from the Supervisor dimmed instantly, losing its previous mystery and wonder.

The Imperial Advisor stopped his Zi Wei Dou Shu (a form of divination) and respectfully said to Emperor Yuan Chu, "Your Majesty, please don't wrong this old minister."

"This old minister just now exerted all his strength to help Your Majesty deduce the secrets of heaven."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yuanchu chuckled.

"You old fox."

"No need to explain!"

"I understand your thoughts. Just now, I was indeed a bit flustered and confused."

"Now is definitely not the time to take action against the Ten Great Dao Courts."

"Your Majesty is wise."

The supervisor bowed and said, letting out a long sigh of relief.

His efforts in bringing out his treasured Yuechan Lingyin Temple, which he had kept for many years, finally convinced Emperor Yuanchu.

"Director, today you shall pretend that I never came to the Imperial Observatory and continue with the previous arrangements."

"The secrets of heaven will be concealed again during the final test."

"When the time comes, I will definitely teach the Ten Great Dao Courts a lesson."

Even the First Emperor of Yuan would resort to underhanded tactics.

He had originally planned to use underhanded tactics during the final exam, but he didn't expect that the Ten Great Dao Courts would be even more ruthless and kill Lu Wushuang ahead of time.

Therefore, even if the final test plan succeeds, the invincible body will not belong to him.

but……

No one can cultivate an invincible body, which is something that Emperor Yuanchu can accept.

"Old minister, obey your order!"

……

In a dimly lit, quiet room.

"Uncle-Master, is that old man, the Supervisor, deducing the identity of our sect's Invincible Body?"

The one who spoke was the sect leader of the Qiankun Sect, True Lord Taixu.

As for the old man in the Taoist robe beside him, he was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Qiankun Sect—Master Jiuchen.

For this battle for the invincible body, Master Jiuchen secretly entered Jade Capital City, keeping it a secret from everyone.

Even Emperor Yuanchu and the Supervisor did not notice his arrival.

Master Jiuchen sensed the secrets of heaven and shook his head:
"no!"

Upon hearing this, True Lord Taixu frowned deeply, forming a deep "川" shape, and fell into deep thought.

"Lu Wushuang is dead, and Emperor Yuanchu has no chance of winning. How can he still hold back?"

"Hmph—what a coward!"

Taixu Zhenjun seemed dissatisfied, his eyes filled with cold starlight, their gleam sharp and piercing.

"Sect Master, be careful. Given Emperor Yuanchu's personality, he probably won't let this go easily," True Person Jiuchen warned.

"Don't worry, Uncle-Master, I know what I'm doing." True Monarch Taixu nodded slightly; he had never underestimated Emperor Yuanchu.

Compared to the weak former emperor and the crude Emperor Li, Emperor Yuanchu was a great ruler.

How could he underestimate such a person?

"Please, Uncle Master, sense the secrets of heaven to prevent the Primordial Emperor from making a move in secret," Taixu Zhenjun instructed.

……

Wangfu.

Fang Heng was entertaining Xuanqing Daoist, who had come to visit late at night.

"Master, what brings you here tonight?"

Xuanqing Daoist took a sip of spiritual tea, put down the teacup, and slowly spoke, his tone tinged with excitement and joy.

"Heng'er, I have good news to tell you."

"What good news?" Fang Heng asked, curious about what could have made Xuanqing Daoist come to see him overnight.

"The Azure Heaven Realm has opened." Xuanqing Daoist spoke, revealing news that greatly surprised Fang Heng. The Azure Heaven Realm is a secret realm of the Changqing Temple.

Within the secret realm, there are numerous spirit trees, and wood-attribute natural treasures are as plentiful as hairs on a cow.

At the same time, the Azure Heaven Realm is also key to cultivating the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method.

The Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method is the Evergreen Temple's most treasured secret alchemical technique, involving the power of time.

Plant the elixir in a spiritual tree, and use the tree's vitality to accelerate the elixir's formation.

Performing the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Technique once is equivalent to cultivating an elixir for a thousand years.

As for the price...

The spirit tree bore the entire cost.

Each time the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Technique is used, the vitality of the spiritual tree is damaged, requiring a long period of recovery before it can be used a second time.

Therefore, the quality of the spiritual wood directly determines the frequency of performing the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Technique.

The Azure Forest Realm is rich in spiritual trees, which naturally became the key for the cultivators of the Evergreen Temple to cultivate the Evergreen Elixir Planting Method.

"Before the Azure Sky Realm opens, our sect leader will teach you all the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method," Xuanqing Daoist continued.

Fang Heng nodded slightly, then asked, "Master, when will the Azure Heaven Realm open?"

"Three days later!"

"It was originally scheduled to open in two months."

"But some time ago, for some unknown reason, the earth veins in the Azure Forest Realm stirred, causing the secret realm to open ahead of schedule."

"The timeframe is a bit tight this time, and I'm afraid there won't be much time to prepare."

"Which spirit tree you can choose depends entirely on your luck."

Xuanqing Daoist sighed, seemingly lamenting Fang Heng's bad luck.

However, Fang Heng didn't care at all.

Spirit Wood?

Both Tao Yao and Luo Qing possess the potential to reach the twelfth rank.

For Fang Heng, even if he gained nothing in the Azure Forest Realm, he could simply suffer in Peach Blossom again.

Moreover, Fang Heng also has the Heavenly Dew Golden Fruit that is currently being consecrated, so he is not lacking in high-quality spirit wood.

Therefore, he didn't care whether he gained anything in the Azure Heaven Realm.

On the contrary, the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method, a divine ability of alchemy, attracted Fang Heng even more.

After all, this secret method of alchemy involves the power of time.

Anything that involves the power of time, whether it's a cultivation technique or a supernatural ability, represents the pinnacle of Chinese heritage.

Three days later.

Changqing Temple, main hall.

Today, the main hall is filled with many disciples, including many who usually remain in seclusion.

Fang Heng sat cross-legged on a yellow futon, closing his eyes to rest.

A short while later, a commotion arose at the entrance of the main hall.

Fang Heng slightly raised his eyelids and saw several familiar figures.

Seven Killings Pavilion!
Why are people from the Seven Killings Pavilion here?

Among the leaders of the Seven Kill Pavilion were Xue Duanhong, Ye Liuyun, and other disciples of the Seven Kill Pavilion whom Fang Heng had rescued in the secret realm.

As for the leader, Fang Heng had never seen him before, but he figured it must be Bai Xuanfeng, the eldest disciple of Daoist Jueying.

Bai Xuanfeng had a smile on his face, a warm and gentle smile, seemingly sunny, but Fang Heng always felt that the other party's smile was a bit fake, as if he was wearing a mask, which did not leave a good impression on him.

Just as Fang Heng was sizing up Bai Xuanfeng, a beautiful figure walked over, accompanied by a fragrant breeze.

"Junior Brother Fang, it's been a long time."

Her beautiful figure exhaled softly, and a deep surprise welled up in her eyes, almost tangible.

"Senior Sister Xue, it's been a long time!" Fang Heng nodded slightly, sensing Xue Duanhong's feelings for him.

"Today, the master will impart the methods of alchemy. Your Seven Killings Pavilion has come here, could it be...?"

Xue Duanhong nodded slightly and said in a soft breath, "Thank you for your unparalleled benevolence, Abbot Changqingzi, for allowing us disciples of the Seven Killings Pavilion to listen in."

“Even the Azure Heaven Realm allows us to enter.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Heng instantly understood.

It seems that Changqing Temple and Qisha Pavilion made a deal, which led to this situation.

As for what price the Seven Kill Pavilion paid?
Fang Heng didn't think much of it. Given the close relationship between the two families, he figured Changqingzi wouldn't deliberately harm the Seven Kill Pavilion.

Seeing Xue Duanhong and Fang Heng exchanging pleasantries, the surrounding disciples would occasionally cast envious glances their way.

It seems to be saying, "If I were a prince, I would surely have beautiful women throwing themselves at me."

Bai Xuanfeng narrowed his eyes as he watched Xue Duanhong and Fang Heng being intimate, seemingly lost in thought, his pupils flashing with strange light.

"When did Junior Sister Xue become so familiar with the princes of the royal family?" Bai Xuanfeng asked a disciple beside him.

The disciple hesitated for a moment before recounting what had happened at the Heavenly Sword Palace that day.

After listening, Bai Xuanfeng smiled faintly:
"I see!"

"A hero saves the beauty, no wonder Junior Sister Xue is so fond of this Ninth Prince."

"Perhaps it won't be long before our Seven Kill Pavilion has another imperial concubine."

Upon hearing Bai Xuanfeng's words, the disciple standing nearby quickly lowered his head, pretending that he hadn't heard anything.

How could he dare to get involved in the open and covert struggles between the senior brothers and sisters?

Before long, Changqingzi, dressed in the robes of a sect leader, arrived in the main hall.

Today, Changqingzi was dressed formally, unlike his usual casual attire. His face carried a hint of authority, giving him the air of a sect leader.

With a flick of his whisk, Changqingzi's voice, amplified by his magical power, spread outwards, ensuring that every cultivator in the hall could hear it clearly.

But if there were other people present, they would surely be horrified to discover it.

Outsiders can't hear anything.

Changqingzi's control over his magical power was so exquisite that he could make his voice reach the ears of everyone else precisely, while ensuring that no one else could hear a single word.

"The Qi sinks to the Xuanpin and enters the Azure Sky, the spiritual root is deeply planted and the hundred meridians are purified..."

Listening to the incantation of the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method, Fang Heng seemed to be deep in thought and suddenly entered a state of enlightenment.

Fang Heng, who had already grasped the essence of the Morning Dew Sword, was not without a foundation in the Dao of Time.

When he heard the specific cultivation method of the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Technique, a multitude of inspirations flooded his mind, seemingly filling it completely.

Fang Heng entered a state of enlightenment, forgetting himself and the world around him, completely forgetting that he was in the main hall of Changqing Temple.

After an unknown amount of time, a mysterious fluctuation rippled out from Fang Heng's dantian.

It was as if a huge rock had fallen into the calm lake, creating ripples.

These ripples immediately startled Changqingzi, who was preaching.

Chang Qingzi's voice faltered, and the words he was about to say seemed to be stuck in his throat by an invisible giant hand, and he could no longer speak.

His pupils contracted sharply, and a storm raged in his heart.

He forced himself to calm down and barely managed to control his expression, preventing himself from losing his composure in front of all the disciples.

"This is... the fluctuation of the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Technique..."

"This……"

"I remember that in the past thousand years, the fastest person to cultivate the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method was this little girl, Xiao Luoyu."

"It took Xiao Luoyu a full half month to even get the basics of the Evergreen Elixir Planting Method."

"I've only taught him halfway, and Fang Heng has already become a disciple?"

"This child truly deserves to be called the true dragon of this temple!"

"In the past ten thousand years, he is the only disciple who has mastered the Evergreen Elixir Cultivation Method before entering the Azure Forest Realm."

"This talent..."

Changqingzi sighed with emotion. He never expected that the disciple he had accepted by his junior brother because he didn't want to offend Consort Ning would become a true dragon in the sect.

Xiao Luoyu, Lin Yichen, and even my disciples are far less talented than Fang Heng.

How unpredictable things are!
