Master of the Xuanyin Sect of Mount Shu

Chapter 67: Which Palace Should It Land In?

The sky was clear and cloudless.

Above them was a bright and dazzling sun, and below them was a surging sea. The black dragon flew swiftly, enveloped in wisps of clouds.

Guan Minghui sat atop the black dragon's head, toying with the ancient jade bottle in his hand.

The Dragon Sparrow Ring was still on the neck of the neck. This treasure had been completely sealed. Although it had not been refined again and could not be used, the Taiyi Hunyuan Ancestor could no longer take it back.

"I've said it before, the magical treasures in Mount Shu are like women. If they're not yours, and you try to chase after them, you'll die."

Guan Minghui was in a very good mood.

Last night, he sat on the dragon head and carefully calculated that if the Taiyi Hunyuan Ancestor still refused to give up and chased after him to take the bottle back, he would really die.

It's just that he didn't die by his own hand.

Guan Minghui also calculated his future whereabouts. Staying in the Central Plains would be extremely unlucky, as he would be squeezed and strangled by the Emei and Wutai sects.

Although the two factions will not join forces, they will both try to figure out his hiding place and then organize people to hunt him down.

He can only stay for a very short time.

He knew where most of the treasures in the Shushan world were buried, but either he couldn't get them or they were useless to him.

The most powerful items, such as the Nine Doubts Cauldron and the Haotian Mirror, are still in the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum in Qiaoshan. They are hidden inside the Primordial Qi Divine Crossbow. Unless you have the Great Evolution Divine Talisman that Li Jingxu spent forty-nine days refining, going in is certain death!

In addition, Guang Chengzi has a lower volume of the Dan Shu (Alchemy Book) and the Jiutian Yuanyang Ruler. However, the Dan Shu is written in tadpole script, which is incomprehensible even to those who possess it. Even the two elders of Songshan cannot understand it, and the Long-Browed True Man can only translate a part of it. The annotations and translations in the upper volume are required. The Jiutian Yuanyang Ruler also requires the nine-character mantra from the upper volume to be activated and refined.

The remaining side manual and the Soul-Stabilizing and Body-Refining Pill were completely useless to him.

In the Taihang Mountains, there is the Hanxu Immortal Abode left by Lü Dongbin, which contains two alchemical scriptures and two precious swords. He has already cultivated his golden elixir using the Xuan Yin Great Method, so the alchemical scriptures are useless to him, and the Qing Suo Sword is much better than those two flying swords.

Besides, the Taihang Mountains are right next to the Wutai Mountains. If he goes to search for treasure, he will definitely be caught up by the Wutai Sect in no time.

There is a Panluo Immortal Abode in Iron Knife Gorge, which is also involved in the karma of Lu Yu, one of the Two Elders of the Great Wilderness.

In Yanhu Lake of Yandang Mountain, there is a Yu Ding, a powerful treasure left by Yu the Great when he was controlling the floods. The divine Gun there can also be collected on the Xuan Yin Ju Shou Banner.

However, Shen Gun had already obtained the Yu Ding while lurking underwater, and relying on the terrain, he remained hidden and could not be dealt with in a short time.

As for the Nanming Li Huo Sword, I already have the Qing Suo, so I don't really need it. Besides, that sword is in the Great Snow Mountain, surrounded by a large group of top-level monks and nuns. It was fine when it went there, but it probably won't come back.

The others also have their own difficulties, high risks, and little benefit to themselves.

What will truly be useful for my future enlightenment is probably the Mysterious Yin Chain left by the Holy Maiden at the bottom of the Water Palace in the Illusionary Wave Pool, but I can't go there now. With my current strength, I can't break the Five Escape Restrictions inside. Besides, the Illusionary Wave Pool is in Yunnan.

For him, places like Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Chongqing are absolutely off-limits.

The treasures in Mount Shu are mostly predetermined by fate, destined to belong to certain individuals. They cannot be obtained hastily; one must make a careful plan before attempting to acquire them. Rashly pursuing them will only lead to death!
The immediate priority is to leave the Central Plains as soon as possible.

If you go to the East China Sea, you will encounter an extremely powerful enemy. The Zhen Palace in the East is countered by the Seven Killings Star, which corresponds to the Broken Army Star. It is also accompanied by the Death Order God General. Going east will lead to certain death.

He deduced that the other person was short, very old, male, without a hat or shoes, and dressed in yellow, so he was certain it was Li Jingxu.

If you head north, you'll encounter a group from the Emei Sect heading to Wuding Island to seek medicine. Qi Shuming has lost an arm, and the Emei Sect needs to find Wuding Island to obtain a miraculous medicine to reattach it.

Even if they don't encounter each other directly, as long as he goes there, the divination will show that this enemy is in the North Sea, so he can kill him on the way and take back the Green Chain Sword.

The only places left to go are the west and the south.

However, once he removed the other parts of Ziyun Palace, when the Taiyi Hunyuan Ancestor calculated the whereabouts of the Azure Mirage Bottle, he could decipher from the divination that it was Gu Chen who took the bottle.

His ability to become someone else's secret will be exposed, which won't cause any immediate harm, but this method will help him avoid many calamities in the future.

He can not only transform into Sanfeng, but also into Lu Min, Ku Tie, Hua Yaosong... In the future, as more and more people are on the banner, the number of people he can transform into will also increase.

If things are exposed prematurely, many minor setbacks will turn into major, unavoidable ones.

The art of divination is like a chain reaction; a single variable can trigger a chain of other variables, turning a lucky hexagram into an unlucky one, and a minor misfortune into a major one.

What seems like a minor change now might develop into a major catastrophic change in the future, and then backfire on you!
Even someone as powerful as Li Jingxu wouldn't dare to touch it lightly!

According to the divination, Guan Minghui believes that at this critical juncture, going to Ziyun Palace is the only auspicious option.

Going there, you can obtain resources such as Tianyi True Water, and you can also use the terrain to resist the pursuers of the Wutai Sect.

Conversely, if he doesn't go, Chu Feng will soon emerge from seclusion, leading Hui Zhu, Jin Xunu, and others to search for him and avenge his sister.

The treasures belonging to Chu Feng and the others were retrieved from the Lianshan Treasure Vault on Moon Island with the help of the two elders of Songshan, and they have a deep connection with the Emei Sect.

At the same time, they have a good relationship with Xu Feiniang. If the matter of the demon corpse transforming into three phoenixes to steal treasures from the Wutai Sect is exposed, they will also join forces with the Wutai Sect.

By then, they will be able to mingle between the two factions, gaining double support, and hunt down Guan Minghui all over the world. Guan Minghui will not be killed by them, but he will be constantly harassed by them, unable to refine anything, until he reaches a dead end.

Only by going now can all the problems be solved.

It's like playing chess. At this critical juncture, the whole board is a dead end, except for this one spot which is alive.

As long as he can evade this wave of pursuit and survive for several years until the second sword duel approaches, when both factions are fully prepared for war and have no energy to deal with him, he can come out and do what he wants.

Therefore, he flew away from the Central Plains yesterday and headed straight for the Purple Cloud Palace.

While still far from Ziyun Palace, they suddenly saw black mist churning and roaring on a reef ahead, indicating that someone was engaged in a magical battle.

If it were anything else, it wouldn't be so bad, but the opponent was clearly using the Xuan Yin Shen Sha, and there were many black wisps in the black aura, which swayed and twisted like venomous snakes and insects.

Good heavens, this is the authentic Xuan Yin Great Art!

Well, its strength isn't very strong. The black wisps are at most at the third level, and their quality varies greatly. The total number is only a little over a hundred. The Xuan Yin evil energy is also not condensed and thick enough, far from reaching the level of the Xuan Yin Divine Curtain.

This should be a junior member of our sect.

The one casting the spell was indeed a black-clad youth, about seventeen or eighteen years old. He pointed to a black sword with his left hand and held a small banner in his right hand, constantly urging black silk threads to wrap around the target like spider silk.

The one he trapped was a boy in blue robes, about fifteen or sixteen years old, who wielded a wooden sword and used a wooden talisman to emit blue light to protect himself.

Clearly, the young man in blue was in a passive and defensive position. His wooden sword had been corrupted by the black evil spirits, and his protective blue aura was also entangled by black evil threads. It wouldn't be long before he was captured by his opponent.

Guan Minghui remembered that Gu Chen had five junior brothers. When he was killed in Mangcang Mountain, two of them ran away as soon as they saw that things were not going well. One was called Baiyu Shenmo Yan Shi and the other was called Baigu Zhenren He Ju. This black-clothed boy should be one of their disciples.

The black dragon flew at an extremely fast speed and arrived nearby in an instant.

Guan Minghui reached out and grabbed the large mass of black evil energy, along with the black evil threads within it, from a distance. It shrank to the size of an egg and landed in his palm.

The boy in black was dumbfounded. He hurriedly waved the small banner, made hand seals and chanted incantations to summon the evil energy and black silk back, but it was of no use.

He shouted angrily, "Who are you? Why did you disrupt my magic?"

The other boy in blue robes escaped and immediately leaped into the air on his sword. Despite his young age, he had mastered the art of becoming one with his sword, transforming into a streak of blue light as he flew south.

Guan Minghui extended a finger and shot out a seven-turn black silk thread, which wrapped around the boy and his sword. The boy exerted his strength several times, causing the sword light to surge and fly away rapidly, but he was still pulled back like a kite.

"Did I say you could leave? All of you, stand here properly while I ask you questions." Guan Minghui first asked the black-clad youth, "Whose sect are you from? Why are you fighting him here?"

The boy saw the black, grayish-white thread shot out from his hand, thinner than a strand of hair. His eyes lit up, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Junior Cui Shu greets senior. My master is the Hundred Desires God of the Golden Star Gorge, whose name is Shang Yan Xia Shi. This nephew greets my grandmaster uncle and kowtows to him!"

As expected, he was Yan Shi's apprentice. This child was so clever that he guessed his identity right away, which surprised Guan Minghui.

However, I remember that in the original novel, Cui Shu was supposed to be a disciple of the Whale Rider of the South China Sea. How did he become Yan Shi's disciple?

What is your relationship with the whale rider?

Cui Shu was taken aback: "I've heard of him. He's a rogue cultivator from Snow Wave Island in the South China Sea, but I've never met him."

It turns out that Cui Shu originally wanted to become the master of the Whale Rider. The Whale Rider and Cui Haike were close friends. Cui Haike was trapped in Mangcang Mountain for more than 20 years by Guan Minghui. The Whale Rider's visit to his friend changed, which resulted in him not being able to find Cui Shu. Instead, the child was taken away by Yan Shi, who happened to be out.

Guan Minghui asked Cui Shu to stand up and asked him how his master was doing. Cui Shu answered truthfully.

Yan Shi was so terrified by the Long-Browed Immortal that he dared not return to the Central Plains and instead hid in the underwater cave in the South China Sea to cultivate.

He found five ghosts who had died nearly a thousand years ago in a shipwreck at the bottom of the cave. He used magic to transform them into the Five Elements Corpse Demons, but he had not yet succeeded and was not confident enough to go out easily.

Seeing that they had recognized each other as relatives, the young man in blue beside them knew he was doomed, so he cursed loudly, "You evil heretics, you will be punished by heaven sooner or later..."

Upon hearing the words "divine punishment," Cui Shu's expression changed. His grandmaster had died because of this, and his master, Yan Shi, couldn't stand those two words the most.

Guan Minghui didn't seem to care much and asked him, "What's your name, and who are you from?"

"I will never change my name or surname, my name is Ha Yan!" The boy was bound by black silk threads and could not struggle. He felt that he was about to die. He was angry and anxious, and tears welled up in his eyes. "My master is the Heavenly Fool of Copper Coconut Island. He is the most protective of his own. He will definitely kill you to avenge me!"

"Oh, so you're Master Tianchi's disciple. What were you fighting about?"

Cui Shu said, "I found a Dragon Pearl Immortal Herb here, and he's trying to steal it."

Ha Yan denied it: "I clearly found that immortal herb, but it wasn't ripe at the time. I had to leave because of something, so I set up a small spirit wood array..." "Just because you set up an array doesn't mean it's yours. Why don't you go to the Central Plains, set up an array on Mount Emei, and tell them that this mountain belongs to you! It's clear that I waited here for three more days for it to ripen."

"Alright, alright," Guan Minghui interrupted their argument and said to Cui Shu, "It's just a Dragon Pearl Grass, give it to him."

Cui Shu was filled with disappointment. He had thought that with his senior uncle's arrival, he could easily obtain the spiritual herb he had been guarding for three days. However, he did not expect his senior uncle to side with outsiders.

"Give it to him!" Guan Minghui's voice deepened.

Cui Shu dared not disobey, so he took out the immortal herb and threw it to Hayan. Hayan caught it and was stunned, unable to believe it was real.

"Let's go quickly."

Hayan wiped away his tears, bowed to Guan Minghui, and then flew away on his sword.

"He's quite polite." After he flew away, Guan Minghui told Cui Shu, "If you kill him, his master, Tianchi Shangren, will definitely not let it go. Your master might kill you and send your head and soul to appease the old man's anger."

Cui Shu stared in disbelief: "My master... impossible, my master isn't afraid of anyone."

"Do you understand your master better, or do I?"

In Guan Minghui's memory, Yan Shi was also ruthless, but he was also good at weighing the pros and cons. Tianchi Shangren had already cultivated an immortal body and possessed great magical power, so he was no match for him.

For such a trivial matter, Cui Shu has provoked such a powerful enemy, proving that this disciple is useless and only brings harm; it would be better to kill him...

Of course, it's not Yan Shi's fault. Back then, the Heavenly Lust Cult Master taught his disciples in this way, and Gu Chen and his fellow disciples also inherited this tradition. Otherwise, the Divine Eye Heavenly Venerable wouldn't be like that.

"Alright, isn't it because the dark and malevolent energy is corroding your body that you need to use the Dragon Pearl Immortal Herb to cleanse and maintain your health? Your senior uncle will give you something good."

Guan Minghui took out the ten-thousand-year-old warm jade, channeled his inner energy into it, and the warm jade emitted light, from which dripped a drop of silver liquid wrapped in purplish-red luster.

"Open your mouth!"

Cui Shu opened his mouth as instructed, and Guan Minghui flicked the droplet into his mouth.

"This is called Xuan Yang Taiyi Yuan Jing. Taiyi Yuan Jing is rare to begin with, but this is a hundred times better. Just one drop can transform you completely, and your physical body will show no signs of aging or decay even after sixty years."

Cui Shu swallowed the drop of liquid and felt a warm sensation throughout his body. The yin and filth that had been entangled in his internal organs were swept away. Overjoyed, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed again: "Nephew thanks Uncle-Master! Thank you, Uncle-Master!"

Guan Minghui smiled and told him to get up. He chatted briefly with him about Yan Shi's situation, and finally took out a five-turn Xuan Yin Gathering Beast Banner and handed it to him: "Nice to meet you. This is a gift for you."

Only Gu Chen knew the Xuan Yin Gathering Beast Technique. Yan Shi had coveted it for many years and often mentioned it to his disciple, always sighing with regret. Cui Shu, holding the treasure his master had dreamed of, was so happy he almost fainted.

He asked Guan Minghui to go to Jinshixia, but Guan Minghui refused, saying, "I still have a calamity to deal with. I'll go find your master after I've passed it."

Although Yan Shi is Gu Chen's junior brother, he can only fight when things are going well. If you want to get him involved in dealing with Emei and Wutai, he'll run away faster than a dog once things are going badly.

However, his magical power is not weak after all. There are no unsuitable people, only unsuitable places. If needed in the future, he can still be of some use if used in the right place.

Guan Minghui gave Cui Shu a drop of Xuan Yang Taiyi Yuan Jing, along with a Xuan Yin Ju Shou Banner, enough to make Yan Shi drool. However, he couldn't get it for the time being, nor could he find his senior brother's whereabouts. He could only think about it day and night, his heart aching with longing. He hoped that when he appeared in front of him again to ask him for a favor, he would do his best to help him.

He then patted the dragon's horns, causing the black dragon to take flight and continue its journey.

Upon reaching the sea area above Ziyun Palace, he used magic to part the waterways, rode a dragon into the sea, and descended more than ten thousand feet to the depths of the ocean.

The Purple Cloud Palace was built inside the eye of the sea. Ever since Jin Xunu rescued Erfeng from Mangcang Mountain, Chufeng used magic to activate the water array in the eye of the sea, completely sealing it off and hiding the Purple Cloud Palace.

This water formation was set up by Tianyi Jinmu, the builder of Ziyun Palace. It was constructed using the continuous essence of Gui water from the depths of the ocean, and its power is very strong.

Guan Minghui first took out the Xuan Yin Gathering Beast Banner, rolled it around his body, and transformed into the appearance of three phoenixes. Then he cast a spell to open the portal and enter the water array.

After passing through the sea eye and traveling about fifty miles further, you will see a magnificent underwater palace, adorned with pearls and jade, shining brightly against the dark seabed.

Before arriving at Ziyun Palace, a spirit beast, a dragon-like creature, swam over first. It seemed to sense that its master was a stranger, but it couldn't tell if the creature was real or not.

Guan Minghui pinched its nose, called the black dragon over to get acquainted with it, and instructed it to take the black dragon to play in the coral jungle.

Upon entering Ziyun Palace, Jin Xunu, Erfeng, and Huizhu were all extremely shocked to see him: Wasn't Sanfeng dead?
The three people gathered around and looked him up and down, wondering if it was a returning soul or a demonic illusion.

After confirming that it was a real person, Erfeng rushed over and hugged her, crying loudly.

Huizhu still couldn't believe it: "We calculated your fortune, and the divination showed that you have already suffered a calamity."

"You're now assuming that Second Sister is also dead? I also died once, but I escaped death by a hair's breadth and was tainted by the aura of death. Although I didn't become a demon corpse, I was somewhere between half-dead and half-alive."

Guan Minghui took out the speech he had prepared on the way, which was roughly the same as what he had said to the Wutai Sect. He then added the story of going to Wutai Mountain to ask for help and snatching a treasure from the other party.

Of course, all of this was said in Sanfeng's voice. Sanfeng herself is selfish, stubborn, greedy, ruthless, and even rude, she can still cause trouble. No matter what happens, she can always shift the blame onto the other party.

In the original novel, upon seeing Lu Rongbo ascend to immortality, she was able to directly use magic sand to bring her down and forcibly bring her back to the palace to serve. This time, snatching a bottle from her is quite in line with her personality.

Huizhu and Jinxu were shocked upon hearing this: "The Wutai Sect is one of the two strongest sword immortal sects in the Central Plains. How could you dare to rob them of their things when the Fairy Wanmiao from the palace came here a few years ago?"

Guan Minghui had also thought it through. Knowing that Huizhu admired Buddhism and Jin Xunu favored Emei, he said, "You don't know, this time it's quite lively in the Central Plains. The Emei Sect and the Wutai Sect are having a sword fight!"
The Grandmaster Hunyuan of the Wutai Sect severed the arm of Master Miaoyi of the Emei Sect. Who was Master Miaoyi? He was the grand-disciple of Master Lianshan, the one who helped us retrieve the treasure from Moon Island.
Didn't the two elders of Mount Song instruct us that if the Emei Sect ever needs their help, we should remember their kindness and do our best to assist them? I'm doing this to repay the favor the Emei Sect has done..."

Upon hearing this, Jin Xunu perked up: "That's right, that's right, the two seniors from Songshan did indeed say that!"

Huizhu nodded repeatedly.

The two of them firmly sided with the Emei Sect. Xu Feiniang visited them several times, often saying that the Emei Sect was arrogant and domineering, and trying to persuade them to stand on the side of the Wutai Sect. She said that if they encountered anyone from the Emei Sect in the future, they should kill them without mercy.

Jin Xunu and Huizhu remembered the instructions of the two elders of Songshan and were annoyed by Xu Feiniang. However, Sanfeng and Dongxiu were on good terms with Xu Feiniang, and Wanmiao Fairy was very capable. Over time, even Chufeng and Erfeng felt that the Wutai Sect was good and the Emei Sect was bad. They could not persuade her and could only worry helplessly.

This time, Sanfeng has changed her mind after returning from the Central Plains and wants to stand on the side of the Emei Sect to deal with the Wutai Sect. It's like the sun has risen in the west.

But the two were still very happy.

There was also a struggle for power within Ziyun Palace. In the original story, the two factions wavered between each other. Sanfeng and others deliberately befriended the Wutai Sect, while Huizhu and Jinxunu secretly aided the Emei Sect. In the end, the two factions were torn apart, and all of them except Chufeng and Huizhu were killed.

Erfeng has become a demon corpse, and for the past few months she has been using the blood of sea beasts to maintain her human form in order to prevent herself from turning into a zombie.

Guan Minghui then taught her some cultivation methods of the Xuan Yin Great Law: "When I escaped from the demon corpse, I obtained a tattered Taoist book, which was probably hidden by those people he enslaved. It should be able to neutralize the poison of your demon corpse."

Erfeng was overjoyed to receive the cultivation technique. Being rather simple-minded, she didn't doubt the fact that her "younger sister" had given it to her and immediately took it back to begin cultivating.

Guan Minghui calculated that the Wutai faction would arrive soon, and the palace would have to work together to resist them.

Returning to the Coral Pavilion where Sanfeng once lived, Guan Minghui first used magic to seal the main gate, then unveiled the Xuan Yin Banner and returned to his original appearance.

As he admired the scenery, he walked further in, pondering how to use the Ziyun Palace to create a large pit and bury whoever came.

The Wutai faction came and buried the Wutai faction.

The Emei Sect came and buried the Emei Sect.

Meanwhile, in the Hunyuan Cave of Mount Wutai, the Taiyi Hunyuan Ancestor was using a divination board to calculate the innate divine numbers and the whereabouts of the Azure Mirage Bottle.

This time, a complete set of calculation tools was used, which yielded a wealth of information and made the results much clearer.

The Azure Mirage Bottle has now been taken to the south, to the bottom of the sea. The divination cloud is at the bottom of the water, which corresponds to the Purple Cloud Palace.

In front of all the immortals, Sanfeng openly stole his Azure Mirage Bottle. He had to get his revenge, because this was an even worse slap in the face than when he was slapped by the demon corpse before.

Although Gu Chen killed many of his disciples, they were all ruthless and well-known figures whose strength was obvious to all.

On that day, out of the hundreds of sword immortals on Zhongtai Mountain, no more than ten were able to fight the demon corpse alone without being killed. Although the Wutai Sect lost face, it was not as much of a disgrace.

But what is Sanfeng? And what is Ziyun Palace? How dare a rogue cultivator from overseas openly rob the Wutai Sect from the jaws of death!
If Wutai Mountain hadn't destroyed Gu Chen, all the immortals in the world would have said that the demon corpse was too ferocious and that the Wutai Sect wasn't strong enough to destroy him.

However, if the Ziyun Palace is not destroyed as soon as possible, the Wutai Sect will truly lose face and become a laughing stock. Its fortune will also decline, which will be very detrimental to the future development and inheritance of the sect.

According to Xu Feiniang, the Ziyun Palace contains golden courtyards and jade pillars, various pearls and treasures, ancient corals arranged like a forest, thousand-year-old pearls piled up like mountains, and a great many spiritual herbs and immortal plants.

If we can seize it and turn it into a separate residence, the strength of the Wutai Sect will be further enhanced.

At the end of the Song Dynasty, the Wutai Sect took a fancy to an iron fortress in the Tianshan Mountains and wanted to turn it into a separate residence, hoping that the people inside would voluntarily hand it over. However, the Three Elders of Changbai set a trap to ruin the plan, and unrelated scoundrels such as Yue Yun and Deng Bagu also interfered, resulting in the death of several disciples, the destruction of several treasures, and a fruitless return.

With this latest victory in the sword duel, and no one standing in their way, they have a good chance of seizing the Purple Cloud Palace.

However, Ziyun Palace is hidden deep underwater, making it extremely difficult to attack and enter.

The Taiyi Hunyuan Ancestor also pointed out that if he couldn't take down Ziyun Palace quickly, the Emei forces might still send people to help him.

Nine times out of ten, they are still those two most hated dwarfs from Mount Song!
His initial thought was to personally lead the team, using the ferocity of a lion hunting a rabbit, to swiftly kill everyone in the Purple Cloud Palace and seize the Immortal Abode.

However, the divination results show that the fortune of the Wutai Sect will decrease rather than increase, which will directly lead to the failure of the second sword duel!
"Bang!" The Taiyi Hunyuan Ancestor repeatedly calculated, but no matter how he calculated, things didn't go smoothly. Behind every slightly auspicious choice lay a lurking omen of great misfortune.

By the end, his head was throbbing with pain, and in a fit of frustration, he smashed the tea table he usually drank tea on with a single slap.

After calming down, I returned to the divination board to observe and contemplate:
"It's as if there's a hidden variable that affects every choice I make. This variable keeps changing with my choices, and I can't even calculate how much it's biased. Which palace should my innate deity fall into for the best luck?"
