Chapter 342 Dayi
Chapter 342 Dayi
Dayi, the most prosperous place in the human realm, was once the site of the Human Emperor Palace. After the founding of the Xia Dynasty, it served as its capital.
However, the Human Emperor Palace has been in seclusion for nearly three hundred years and has completely faded from the worldly sight. The practitioners have become more and more secluded from the world. Although there are still practitioners walking in the world, there are far fewer of them compared to the past.
For mortals, the most irresistible force in the world is time, wear and decay, which are always with us.
The Great Xia Dynasty no longer had the peace and tranquility it had when it was first established, and beneath the prosperity of this great city lay an unstoppable corruption.
A woman in black sat on the roof of a loft in the city, looking at the city below, swinging her legs, with a measuring stick across her knees, and holding the purchased cakes in her hands, savoring them in small bites.
The taste is a bit average and it’s not as good as its reputation suggests. This is Nu Qing’s evaluation.
The breeze blew by, her clothes fluttered, the small gourd and jade book on her waist made clear sounds like bells, and a strange color flashed faintly in her eyes.
An invisible rhyme of Tao naturally spread out, cleansing the heaven and earth, making the place where he was located clear and fresh, and sweeping away all the dullness.
Nv Qing looked at this prosperous capital city and frowned, not satisfied.
It was rumored to be the most prosperous capital city, but she didn't like the atmosphere here. It was mixed with foul air, even worse than a cemetery.
The "Heavenly Law" and "Ghost Law" on her waist flashed with a faint light. From Nu Qing's perspective, there were many people here who were not evil spirits but were worse than evil spirits. Looking at the most noble palace complex, she did not see any nobility in them, and underneath the grandeur there were traces of decay.
"Looking at this state, it's possible that in another one or two hundred years, the luck will be gone."
But this matter had nothing to do with her. Nv Qing shook her head and threw away all the distracting thoughts in her mind. After all, she was also a person from outside the world. She was in the mundane world, but not ordinary.
The young woman listened to the voices of people from all directions and filtered out the things that did not interest her. Finally, she heard something that interested her. A name appeared in the rumors in the streets.
Yang Jian.
There were turmoil from time to time in the Great Xia Dynasty. When the world was not at peace, evil spirits would breed and cause chaos.
Nv Qing captured the information in the rumors. In these rumors, Yang Jian suddenly appeared in the world, slew demons and eliminated evil, and became famous. He fought against the Six Saints of Meishan alone and defeated them, and recruited them for his own use. The rumors made it seem like a miraculous thing.
She didn't know who this Yang Jian was, but a man who claimed to be her senior brother told her that this man might come to find her and borrow the River Map and Luo Shu from her, so she came to this dayi.
As a disciple of the Saint's Great Sect, Yang Jian's secrets are obscured by the fortune of the Saint's Great Sect and are difficult to discern.
The many magical weapons in Nv Qing's hands were indeed powerful, but her cultivation was not enough now, and the ruler did not obey her and was unwilling to help her, so she was helpless.
Of course, the young woman had no intention of actively looking for the other party. According to what the senior brother she had never met said, there was no need to care and she could just wait for the other party to come to her.
If the other party is asking for something, the help you offer in a hurry may become cheap and not worth it.
If she wanted to, she could test the younger generation a little, as long as she could help him in the end.
Nu Qing deeply agreed with what the senior brother said, which was exactly what she wanted. Anyway, she didn't know anything about the sect, so it was right to listen to the senior brother. Even if he was wrong, it was not her fault. She was just listening to the senior brother's advice.
"Ruler, are you awake?"
Nv Qing raised her hand and knocked on the measuring ruler again, but there was no reaction from the ruler.
How stingy, the young woman thought to herself.
She just asked it to help more, but the ruler started playing dead and ignored her ever since, which made her wonder if the ruler's spiritual power had dissipated.
Fortunately, that didn't happen, because after she "accidentally" dropped the ruler, she found it back by herself, but she was struck by lightning a few times.
Seeing that the measuring ruler was pretending to be dead as usual, Nv Qing shook her head, put it into her sleeve, clapped her hands, stood up, and then disappeared from here. There was no trace left. Only a few birds continued to peck at some broken cakes, making "chirping" sounds from time to time, which were dissipated in the wind.
……
Meishan is a place famous in the area.
It’s not because Meishan is some extraordinary blessed land, but because there are several powerful beings occupying Meishan, known as the Six Saints of Meishan. They have profound cultivation and great magical powers. Ordinary sects dare not provoke them. They are truly six people in the Taiyi realm, so who dares to underestimate them?
Of course, the Six Saints of Meishan have always been very sensible and are not ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.
Although he is the king of the mountain, he rarely acts recklessly.
The more advanced one's cultivation is, the more one knows how deep the water in the wilderness is.
At this time, Yang Jian was in Meishan, sitting on the top of the mountain, pondering the axe in his hand.
Yang Jian picked up the axe and swung it. It was as heavy as a mountain and its sharpness seemed to be able to cut through anything.
Compared to when he first borrowed the axe, he is now able to unleash the power of this magic weapon to a certain extent.
The entire axe seems to be made of polished jade. It combines simplicity and ruggedness with exquisite elegance. It is engraved with natural patterns and has no other characteristics except being sharp.
If there is any difference between it and ordinary magic weapons, it is that this mountain-splitting axe has a rich power of merit and is closely connected with luck. It can exert a certain amount of power. It does not depend on how high the cultivation level of the person holding the mountain-splitting axe is, but on how much luck he can control and the great momentum he has.
What Yang Jian didn't know was that the mountain-splitting axe had this characteristic not by accident.
This was because when Yu first got the Mountain-Splitting Axe, his own cultivation was not enough. Xuandu was worried that Yu would come again to disturb his cultivation, so he made some adjustments to allow the Mountain-Splitting Axe to leverage its power and unleash a power far beyond Yu's own strength.
Yang Jian put down the Axe and frowned in thought. Now he had barely gained the recognition of the Axe, but he had no clues about the two people he was looking for.
The former great wizard Yi was indeed once the king of Shangqiu, but at the same time he retired to the Human Emperor Palace, the Great Xia Dynasty was established, and Yi also left Shangqiu at that time.
Because of her wife Chang'e, she would appear in the Palace of the Human Emperor from time to time, but most of the time she was not in the Palace of the Human Emperor, but wandering in the wild, or even possibly not in the human realm at all. There were rumors in the Palace of the Human Emperor before that Yi took Chang'e to Uttarakuru, saying that they were going hunting.
As for the other female youth, the Human Emperor Palace and the Meishan brothers did help him collect some information, but the whereabouts of this uncle-master were also erratic. Looking at her whereabouts, he always felt that she seemed to be running around aimlessly, and he had no idea where she would appear next time.
Yang Jian was full of distress and kept telling himself not to be impatient, but seeing the time passing, every moment of delay was a torment.
