Chapter 173 Aka! Tianyan Sect! Ling Suwen!

Upon hearing this, Chen Qian was deeply moved.

He walked up to his wives and concubines who did not have tokens, embraced them one by one, and showered them with tender affection.

The whole process was extremely heartwarming.

Although Chen Qian didn't say anything more, he had already made his stance clear.

Although the maids Heying, Fengyin, and Jixue didn't get a share, they all looked at Qingman and Ziyao with envy.

They also wanted to become the young master's concubines, but unfortunately they were all too young. They would have to be raised for at least another two or three years before they reached the age of marriageable age.

It's too early to think about these things now.

I should try to increase my cultivation level further so that I can be of more help to the young master in family affairs.

As for having children for the young master, that can only be considered when he reaches the appropriate age.

After comforting his wives and concubines, Chen Qian pricked his fingertip, squeezed out a drop of blood, and let it fall into the center of the top-grade token.

The blood was instantly absorbed, and the token's light intensified slightly.

Chen Qian immediately felt that his connection with the stone mirror and the spirit of the artifact had become closer, and communication seemed to be much smoother.

It was as if a single thought could control the entire situation.

Su Yueshang, Chen Yunyi, and Chen Yunxi also followed instructions and dripped their blood onto the token to acknowledge its ownership.

Soon, the tokens in their hands also lit up, perfectly blending with their aura.

"Husband, how do I use this token?"

Feeling the strange connection transmitted through the token, Chen Yunxi asked first.

Chen Qian narrowed his eyes and focused his divine sense into the token. Ripples appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, and the phantom of the token emerged.

With a thought, the phantom images of three other level-one tokens lit up in his mind, surrounding the token holder like stars.

A few breaths later, Chen Qian had completely figured out how to use and control the token.

It has three main functions!

Chen Qian opened his eyes wide and spoke in a loud and powerful voice.

"Firstly, telepathic communication!"

"No matter where you are, as long as you are not in a forbidden array of level three or above, or in some spiritually isolated areas or otherworldly secret realms, you can use the token to communicate with each other using your divine sense!"

"A single thought is all it takes to communicate with each other!"

"Come on, Yue Chang, let's try it."

Chen Qian locked his divine sense onto Su Yueshang's token and sent a thought to her: "Yueshang, can you hear me?"

Almost simultaneously, the token in Su Yueshang's hand felt slightly warm, and Chen Qian's familiar and clear voice rang out directly in her mind without any hindrance!

Su Yueshang's beautiful eyes lit up, and she immediately replied, "My lord, I heard you very clearly!"

Next, Chen Qian tried to connect Chen Yunyi and Chen Yunxi at the same time and created a small "group chat".

The three women were pleasantly surprised to find that they could not only communicate directly with Chen Qian, but also have clear spiritual communication with each other through the tokens!
This completely overturned their understanding of communication methods.

It should be noted that Su Yueshang and Chen Qian already possessed high-level sensing talismans. Even as a Core Formation True Person, she had never heard of a sensing talisman that could allow one-to-many communication.

"Secondly, observe the soul and trace its path!"

After they became familiar with the communication function, Chen Qian continued.

"Simply inject a wisp of a cultivator's or demon beast's magic power, blood energy, or divine soul into the token."

"The token can guide the location of a target within a hundred miles and sense its general direction within a thousand miles."

Chen Qian gestured and selected the quiet Ji Xue as the target, "Xiao Xue, circulate your magic power and release a trace of your aura."

Ji Xue happily did as she was told, and a pure wind-attribute sword aura spread out in the void.

Chen Qian easily detected the sword energy and infused it into the command token.

He then used the connection between the tokens to "share" this sword energy with three other level-one tokens.

"Now try to lock onto Xiaoxue's aura."

Chen Qian said to Chen Yunyi and the other two women.

The three goddesses focused their thoughts into their respective tokens and indeed sensed a pale blue arrow pointing to a location not far from them.

It was clearly the location where Jixue was.

"As long as the target's aura is captured, the token will continuously guide its location within a hundred miles of the target. The closer the distance, the clearer the sensing will be."

As Chen Qian explained, he moved Ji Xue to various locations in the Wheel of Fate.

Because the distance was not far, the sensory arrow in the token indicated the location with exceptional sensitivity and unerring accuracy.

The traces have been found over a hundred miles, and the mystery is truly astounding!
The women exclaimed in admiration once again.

This was, of course, because Chen Qian used his authority over the world to project these images into the consciousness of the women, allowing those without tokens to view them clearly.

The women felt as if they were watching a holographic video, instantly experiencing the immersive feeling of being there.

Thirdly, to monitor and understand the profound!

Chen Qian's tone became somewhat solemn.

"This feature is the most powerful, but it is also the most limited."

"The holder of the token can use it to connect their divine sense to the core perception of the Soul Observation and Breath Finding Mirror."

"Currently, we can monitor the situation within a radius of thirty miles centered on the body of the mirror, including mountains, rivers, vegetation, the flow of spiritual energy, and the presence of living beings... we can perceive all of these!"

"Due to the incomplete nature of the spirit treasure itself, the insufficient spirituality of the artifact spirit, and the fact that the spiritual veins of the Destiny Wheel Realm are only of the second-tier middle grade, the scope of this monitoring is not very large."

"But if this treasure were at its peak, situated on a top-tier spiritual vein dojo, and even had countless high-grade spirit stones invested in it, it's unimaginable how vast an area it could monitor!"

"Perhaps, the idea that nothing can be hidden under surveillance for thousands of miles is not just empty talk."

The women watched the images Chen Qian projected into their minds, which depicted the various scenes within a thirty-mile radius of Taichu Peak, and they all gasped in astonishment.

This is what it means to have a "celestial perspective"!
Everything within the reach of divine thought is revealed in perfect detail!

It's even clearer than my own divine sense!
Its power is limitless, used for vigilance, reconnaissance, and exploration!

Su Yueshang had the highest cultivation level, yet she felt it the most deeply.

Because she had painstakingly cultivated to the early stage of Core Formation, her current spiritual strength was only less than five miles.

This incomplete spiritual treasure, relying solely on a mid-grade second-tier spiritual vein, was many times larger than the area she had explored.

“Of course,” Chen Qian changed the subject, “this function consumes a huge amount of spiritual energy! It cannot be used as a regular method.”

"Therefore, this monitoring function should not be activated lightly unless absolutely necessary!"

Upon hearing this, all the women nodded solemnly.

They understood that using any means beyond their capabilities would inevitably come at a price.

"This token is also a divine soul treasure. Once the holder recognizes it as their master, they can completely refine it. After success, they can store it in their sea of ​​consciousness, which can stabilize their divine soul and defend against divine soul attacks."

Then, Chen Qian looked at Chen Yunxi and said, "Yunxi, this is a rare treasure that can be refined regardless of cultivation level. It may take you a long time to fully refine it. Take your time, don't rush, but you must persevere and complete it."

"This is a great reassurance; I can feel more at ease when I'm not by your side."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yunxi looked at Chen Qian with bright eyes and assured him, "I understand, my husband, I will persevere."

“Okay. Once I have a little more money, the others will have some too,” Chen Qian said to the women.

"I understand, my husband."

While there is a limit to the number of Level 1 tokens, you can refine as many Level 2 tokens as you want.

From now on, he will have every woman he has.

The time limit of the second-level token has little impact; the biggest difference from the first-level token is that the monitoring function cannot be activated.

Finally, Chen Qian approached the spirit at the center of the treasure mirror, gently ran his fingers across its body, and said with a smile, "We need to give you a name!"

"Since you keep stammering when you speak, I'll call you Aka! How about that?"

As someone who's terrible at naming things, Chen Qian wouldn't normally take on this kind of task willingly. He's only saying it now because he's in a good mood and wants to crack a joke.

did not expect……

The little spirit's empty eyes began to flicker violently.

Then, the little artifact spirit's voice echoed in Chen Qian's mind: "Yes... Master..."

“Aka is here... ready to... receive... orders at any time…”

Chen Qian: "...!?"

Could it be that the name Aka is really that good?

What happened? It struck a nerve with this little spirit.

Although his speech is still a bit halting, his reactions are not slow at all!
……

……

……

Central Plains Continent, Tianyan Sect, Celestial Phenomenon Hall.

How far is this place from Dongyuan? I don't know. But it's certainly more than a billion miles away.

The Celestial Hall is not suspended above a solitary peak amidst a sea of ​​clouds, but rather the entire complex of halls is situated on the formless yet vast and unpredictable "celestial orbits".

The palace is built on a foundation of jade that has been warmed for millions of years and has the bones of star-refined gold. The walls are decorated with the veins of the stars in the sky, and the eaves are hung with the precious armillary sphere, which slowly rotates, demonstrating the mysteries of the primordial universe.

The space inside the hall seemed to extend infinitely, with the dome projecting a flowing starry sky and a frozen miniature of the Milky Way beneath one's feet.

This is the core and important place of the Tianyan Sect, the hub for deducing the Heavenly Dao and understanding the Five Continents.

At this moment, in the center of the hall, a massive star track instrument constructed from billions of glittering star diamonds suddenly emitted a deep hum!

The ritual features countless points of light, each representing a specific soul, cause and effect, or power.

One of the points of light—representing a certain power—went out without warning!
Immediately afterwards, the eight secondary stars surrounding it, representing first-level authority, were also wiped away as if by an invisible hand, successively dimming and falling silent.

A few breaths later, an old man dressed in a plain white Taoist robe, whose face seemed to be shrouded in the mists of time, appeared silently beside the star track instrument.

His gaze fell on the extinguished stars, and a fleeting look of surprise and shock crossed his deep eyes.

"Has the power of judgment been extinguished?"

His voice was soft, yet it resonated subtly in the hall. "Not destroyed, not sealed... but completely replaced. Is the original mark being erased?"

He stretched out his finger and gently touched the spot of the desolate star. Profound golden runes appeared at his fingertip, attempting to trace the severed causal line.

However, as soon as the rune touched that void, it trembled violently, as if it were being repelled and interfered with by a power different from the origin of this world, and finally shattered and dissipated silently.

"Is nothingness...chaos...not within the evolution of celestial secrets?"

A look of seriousness appeared between the old man's brows.

"interesting."

A barely perceptible smile appeared on the corners of his mouth, a smile born of curiosity and the joy of discovering unknown mysteries.

The next moment, his thoughts spread silently.

Tianyan Sect, Xuanji Pavilion.

The interior space of the pavilion resembled a fragment of a separate, secret realm.

There were no jade, gold, wood, or rare treasures, only a huge ancient chessboard floating in the void.

The chessboard is crisscrossed, with chess pieces in some squares. These pieces are no ordinary objects; they are formed from the light of stars.

At that moment, several chess pieces, each emitting a different aura and a unique light, lit up, like stars being illuminated.

A glass-like chess piece trembled slightly, conveying the message: "The core imprint of the power of judgment has been annihilated, and the cause and effect have been severed. It is neither destroyed nor sealed, but the origin has been replaced. The secrets of heaven are chaotic and difficult to trace. It is only known that the root is located in Dongyuan Continent."

After a brief silence.

A chess piece, its entire body shrouded in purple mist, was the first to send out its thoughts: "The original body of the Mirror has been missing for a long time. The replacement of its source means that someone has reshaped the Mirror's spirit? How is that possible?"

A chess piece, gleaming with a sharp silver light, transmitted its thoughts: "The power of judgment is the foundation of our sect. How can we allow outsiders to meddle with it? Now that it has changed, whether it is activated or reshaped, it is still a possession of our sect. We should send someone to retrieve it, investigate the cause, and teach the villains a lesson!"

A gentle, warm chess piece emanated a soft thought: "Please be patient, everyone. I have already divined that although there has been a backlash, there has also been some gain."

"Firstly, this action was not maliciously directed against our sect;"

"Secondly, the new master's fate is unusual and unpredictable."

"Thirdly, our clan's fortune seems to be somewhat... compatible and mutually beneficial?"

Upon hearing this, the chessboard was instantly abuzz with activity, almost like a sudden whirlwind.

The Heavenly Evolution Sect is one of the leaders of the human race in this world. How magnificent is its fortune?
The synergy between their energies is considered normal; they are already considered outstanding among people, the cream of the crop of humanity.

Just like the entities that the chess pieces represent.

Even though these people have already stood at the pinnacle of this world, they dare not presume to claim that they can advance together with the sect!
This is simply unbelievable!
The chess piece, sharp as a silver blade, held a chilling intent: "Whether it's an opportunity or a calamity, it must be investigated thoroughly."

The Purple Qi Chess Piece concluded: "The power of judgment concerns the inheritance and must be investigated. I intend to send an outstanding disciple there. This is not a campaign, but rather an attempt to trace, observe, and verify the secrets of heaven."

Wenrun Qizi immediately replied, "My deductions indicate that if we send the true disciple Ling Suwen there, whether to find the subject of the divination or to unravel the mystery of heaven, the final result will be extremely auspicious."

After a moment of silence, the glass chess piece conveyed its approval: "Approved! Suwen possesses exceptional talent and a resilient character. She is endowed with the Qingnang Dao Body and the Heavenly Mandate Mysterious Heart, and has great fortune. She can turn misfortune into good fortune and danger into auspiciousness. She is truly favored by Heaven. She is worthy of this task."

"good!"

Ziqi Chess finally made the decision: "Order the true disciple Ling Suwen to go to Dongyuan Prefecture. This trip will be a trial for her to enter the mortal world, temper her Dao heart, and prove her destiny. The sect will open an inter-prefecture teleportation for her to shorten the journey."

The decision has been made, and the brilliance of the chess pieces is fading.

In the Tianyan Sect's Suyin Hall, the causal thread representing "Ling Suwen's journey to Dongyuan Prefecture" was lit up, thus drawing out a thread that transcends time and space, pointing to the place shrouded in chaotic mist.

Chen Qian, by sheer luck, avoided being exposed prematurely.

Because he had taken the Soul Observation Mirror into the Primordial Destiny Wheel Realm.

If it had been placed openly in Qianlong Mountain, the Tianyan Sect would probably have already figured out most of the basic situation of Qianlong Mountain and the Chen family.
