Chapter 812: Chapter 680: Pillar God Armament [Requesting Subscription, Requesting Monthly Ticket]

The ritual and everything else were just a decoy, or rather a switch to activate the operation.

The other party had a divine thought paper man avatar within them, and although they could not maintain constant contact with him, it possessed the intelligence of an ordinary person. The external extension of the Dao Fruit from the human skin leather instrument allowed the avatars to also complete the exchange operation.

"Your servant understands how to proceed!" Ice Frost, despite being severely weakened, humbly replied, as if he weren’t the one who was injured.

Wang Zijia pondered for a moment, then flipped his hand and took out a large bottle containing basic pills infused with demon seeding. He inserted a divine thought into each pill and said,

"As for the issue of contact, if you have any messages you want to send over and I have not yet used the Pillar God’s Eye to establish cross-realm contact with you,"

"just repeat the information you wish to convey to the pill, then have one of your subordinates consume a pill. Send him over as an undercover agent, and you needn’t worry about the rest."

"Understood, my lord!" Ice Frost took the pills and respectfully replied.

Wang Zijia nodded, gave a few more instructions, and then let him go.

Zhu Qi had been watching the entire time, without saying a word.

After leaving Ice Frost behind, Wang Zijia did not leave immediately.

Instead, he discreetly followed and escorted him to a wilderness in the East Wilderness, teeming with demons.

Watching Ice Frost disappear beneath a cliff, Wang Zijia quietly retreated.

"Aren’t we going to check it out? That must be their cross-realm headquarters," Zhu Qi asked, unable to hold back her curiosity.

Wang Zijia shook his head and said, "There’s no need. Whatever Ice Frost sees, I can see."

"There’s a Heavenly Immortal-level Mad God behind this group of people. I’m not yet in a condition to confront them directly; it’s better to be cautious."

"What do we do now? The witches from the Witch Realm are clearly targeting you, Master," Zhu Qi said.

Although unaware of the full story, following him for half a day gave her a rough idea of the situation.

Wang Zijia smiled, a dangerous glint in his eyes, and said, "It’s good that they’re focused on me. Aren’t the monks from the Taiching Palace worried about how to regain their honor?"

"Master, are you saying..." Zhu Qi’s eyes lit up.

"Of course, we’re going to visit the high-ranking individuals from the Three Sects and request a Heavenly Immortal to join the hunt. We can’t just take on a Heavenly Immortal ourselves," Wang Zijia replied with a smile.

"Are you sure, I mean, the work you’ve done on him, it won’t be detected, will it?" Zhu Qi asked worriedly.

"I’m not questioning your abilities, Master, I’m just concerned that if it’s detected and they turn our strategy against us, even if we avoid the danger, we won’t be able to escape the pursuit of the Three Sects afterward. That would be troublesome."

"Don’t worry, no one... at least currently in the Witch Realm and the whole East Wilderness, can spot any issues," Wang Zijia replied confidently.

"When do we visit them? Now?" Zhu Qi asked cautiously.

Wang Zijia shook his head, looked up to gauge the time, and said, "I still have two experiments to conduct first, and it’s already evening, which isn’t suitable."

"Besides, with Ice Frost taking the information back, if Lord of Thunder really wants to capture me alive, he’ll have to wait a few days no matter what. So there’s no rush, we’ll visit them tomorrow. Let’s call it a day today!"

As they spoke, the two had returned to Sanyuan City.

After discussing more affairs, Zhu Qi respectfully bowed to Wang Zijia before turning to leave.

...

After seeing Zhu Qi off, Wang Zijia didn’t stop his actions; indeed, he had a very important experiment to conduct.

Not staying in Wenlan Courtyard, he quietly returned to the Yu Family Courtyard in the East Suburb.

As soon as he landed, Yu Guangyun arrived in haste and bowed to Wang Zijia, saying, "Master, did you summon me?"

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "I need to take you somewhere to conduct a relatively safe test."

"Of course, it’s only theoretically safe. If you’re unsure, you can bring someone else."

"Alright, Master, is there anything I need to prepare?" Yu Guangyun didn’t hesitate and agreed immediately.

He had received too many favors from Wang Zijia these days. Opportunities like this were rare, and he couldn’t let this one slip away.

Anxious to build a closer relationship, he would follow even if the experiment was not entirely safe, as long as it wasn’t certain death.

Only someone who had lived a solitary cultivation life for two thousand five hundred years would know how precious these recent opportunities have been!

The chance to advance from a Yuanshen Cultivator as if in a dream was too good to be true.

Even the relationship with that Senior Sister alone was worth him going to great lengths to curry favor.

"So, do you agree?" Wang Zijia asked.

"Yes, Master, just tell me what you need, and I’ll do it!" Yu Guangyun responded.

Wang Zijia nodded, without saying more, and with a wave of his hand, Yu Guangyun was sealed into a page. Wang Zijia took it with him and vanished from the room.

...

In the small courtyard below the Immortal Bone Mountain Range in the Immortal Bone Forbidden Land, Wang Zijia emerged.

He first activated the Illusion Formation of the small courtyard to isolate it from the outside world.

He then spent some effort sorting out the Five Elements within the courtyard, bringing the chaotic mana back to tranquility.

Because the peculiar Heavenly Tao invasion in the courtyard had already been absorbed, the contamination was gone. With Wang Zijia’s current abilities, sorting out a small courtyard was not too difficult.

In a short time, the small courtyard built with chaotic crystals became an ordinary small courtyard no longer so conspicuous. It wouldn’t be an issue the moment it was sensed.

After making some checks, Wang Zijia released Yu Guangyun.

"Master? Where is this?" Yu Guangyun felt dazed for a moment and, upon realizing that he was in a different world, asked somewhat bewildered.

"You don’t need to worry about such things." Wang Zijia said as she flipped her hand and produced a peculiar looking Eyeball Wand, "Try to establish a mental connection with it and don’t concern yourself with anything else."

"This is..." Yu Guangyun looked at the Staff, paused, and then said, "The weapon of that foreign demoness?"

Wang Zijia’s battle with the Golden-haired Goddess had been witnessed by the entire city, so naturally, the Staff was memorable to many.

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "This is a Seventh-grade Immortal-class Biological Weapon. I’ve checked it carefully and confirmed that there aren’t any dangers."

"But it’s still something from beyond our realm, and it’s quite different from the Biological Weapons produced by the Shen Hong Refining Tool School, so I needed to examine it carefully."

As she spoke, Wang Zijia handed the Staff to him and cautioned, "Be careful, although there should be no danger in theory, we can’t completely exclude a very small possibility."

With Wang Zijia’s explanation, Yu Guangyun understood the reasoning and no longer asked where the Staff came from. He directly received the Staff and asked, "What do I need to do, Master?"

"Reach out with your divine thought, cover the eyeball, and you should be able to receive some information. Then follow the Staff’s guidance to establish a connection with the synapses of that eyeball," explained Wang Zijia.

Upon hearing this, Yu Guangyun nodded and asked, "Shall I begin?"

Wang Zijia nodded too, her expression turning quite solemn.

...

After receiving Wang Zijia’s affirmation, Yu Guangyun carefully reached out with his divine thought, extending his awareness towards the eyeball at the tip of the Staff.

As his awareness reached out, the peculiar eyeball seemed to come to life. Its camera-like pupil turned directly towards Yu Guangyun.

At the same time, because the Staff appeared to be ownerless, both Wang Zijia and Yu Guangyun sensed synapses-like blood vessels extending from behind the eyeball.

They shone like fluorescent silk threads, gently flickering and swaying.

Yu Guangyun quickly understood, and condensed his own divine thought into threads, intertwining them with those fluorescent silk threads extending from the eyeball.

"Hmm!"

In just an instant, Yu Guangyun stiffened.

His eyes blazed with Spiritual Light as if countless stars and worlds were passing through his vision.

His entire being undulated with fluctuations, and he involuntarily began to float while holding the Staff.

"Eh?"

Between the link of the eyeball, Wang Zijia noticed that Yu Guangyun seemed to have a slight inclination to forcefully break through with the eyeball as the carrier.

Wang Zijia merely glanced and didn’t take the opportunity to do anything.

With her current storage of Spiritual Medicine Lead, she could make Yu Guangyun break through to Crossing Tribulation whenever she wished, so this was not considered a real opportunity.

Besides, she couldn’t possibly let him use the eyeball as his Innate life magic treasure.

What she truly cared about was whether there was an issue with this eyeball.

Name: Yu Guangyun

Cultivation: Late Phase Primordial Spirit

Dao Cultivation: Two thousand years (20 billion/20 billion)

Spiritual Roots: Wood Spirit Root (Top grade 30 million/50 million)

Infant God Talent: Peeling

Magic Origin Trait: Soul Paralysis

Cultivation Method: Poison Spirit Inheritance Chapter (Crossing Tribulation Volume)

Tao Law: ...

Status: Biological weapon connection in progress

Available Value: 10.9 billion

Biological weapon connection: Connected by a special Seventh-grade Immortal Artifact, barely possessing the power of Crossing Tribulation. This Immortal Treasure, due to its special structure, puts a great stress on the body and consumes a lot of Mind. The target has not yet constructed a Dao Body or perfected Dao Consistency, and prolonged blessings will have an irreversible impact on the body, forcing it onto a path of virtual and real Dao Consistency.

...

Wang Zijia examined Yu Guangyun for a long while, even scanning with various Light Spots Weights, and having confirmed there were no issues, she finally exhaled in relief.

It seems she was too cautious—the Staff should be fine.

On reflection, that made sense; after several eons had passed and the Corpse turned into a utensil that had been used as a treasure by various monks for so long, it would have revived already if it could.

After all, if it truly could be revived, then the remnants of the Witch Realm would have probably shown some sign or response to encourage those belonging to the divine when they took action, giving them some hope.

The reason why this was turned into a utensil was precisely because those divine beings, despite their best efforts, couldn’t find any possibility of reviving the so-called Pillar God. It was only when the new gods seized the ’opportunity’ that they crafted the Pillar God’s weaponry.

This allowed the so-called Pillar God to accompany them in another form.

...

"How do you feel?" Wang Zijia looked at Yu Guangyun and asked.

Yu Guangyun’s face was somewhat flushed as he said, "I feel incredible, I’ve never felt this powerful before. If I had higher cultivation myself, it might even give me the combat power of an Earth Immortal!"

"This Biological Armor method of refining tools is truly novel, and I feel that it is very suitable for creating inheritance magical tools. It allows one to quickly possess corresponding combat power while not greatly affecting the cultivator’s subsequent Cultivation."
