Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Grandpa Wang’s Historical Notes

In principle, in the world of immortal cultivation, history should not have any discontinuities.

After all, for those old monsters crossing tribulations, living for tens of thousands of years is not difficult; they themselves are living history, unless they are in seclusion all the time or suffer from senility.

But because of that battle which nearly shattered the Four Continents.

Those old things basically all died.

The Wenyuan Pavilion in the Imperial City of Dongqi also turned to ashes in a great fire.

And in the chaotic era after the troubled times, the Hundred Demons Sect rose to power, leaving poison lingering to this day.

The history from the Primordial era and before the founding of Dongqi became fragmented.

Once the Six Sects reorganized the order of the East Continent, they finally found the time to start dealing with other matters.

But the problem arises here.

History is the victor’s toy, and the victors before were the Immortal Dynasty of Dongqi.

So what was enshrined in the Wenyuan Pavilion back then was the official history, whatever was written there was correct.

If you questioned it, that was definitely your problem.

You were disloyal.

Please come with us, the Brocade Dragon Guard, for a visit, there’s a seat waiting for you in the Heavenly Prison.

But now that Dongqi is gone, there are quite a few new victors.

The Six Righteous Sects each have their own understanding and views on those fragmentary histories.

Although they are not as domineering as the Immortal Dynasty of Dongqi, their attitudes are very stubborn.

And the Celestial Sect, because they were established earlier than the other sects and are somewhat stronger, have the hardest stance.

They put the most gold on their own faces.

For example, they claim writing was invented by the sages of the Celestial Sect, the current fashion regulations of the Human Race were improved by the Celestial Sect, and in the battle back then, the Celestial Sect contributed the most effort...

Regarding these viewpoints, naturally, the history enthusiasts from the other five sects are not convinced.

For example, Elder Wang, who loves to read books and compile stories.

For example, those Purple-robed Heavenly Masters from Dragon Tiger Mountain who love to wander around and practice Dragon Seeking and Acupoint Pointing.

One of their major hobbies is to find all kinds of evidence to slap the face of the Celestial Sect.

Of course, both sides are just playing with words, and no one really gets into conflicts because of these things.

Zhang Ze does not care about those amusing actions of the Celestial Sect; what he cares about is the matter of the Celestial Sect’s Saintess Opening Ten Thousand Laws.

If it’s true, then his operational space is very large.

After all, the rolling Yangtze River has said, the great trend of the world is to unite after long separation, and to separate after long unity.

If the Saintess can Open Ten Thousand Laws, there’s no reason Zhang Ze can’t unify those Ten Thousand Laws back.

Zhang Ze skillfully took out the good tea his Grandpa Wang had hidden away and brewed himself a strong cup.

The tea was set aside to cool first, while Zhang Ze opened the booklet and started reading from the first page.

After finishing, Zhang Ze discovered something incredible.

"Wow, this is explosive."

According to Wang’s research and his exchanges with fellow Daoists.

Regarding the matter of the Saintess Opening Ten Thousand Laws, the Celestial Sect was not bluffing.

It’s true.

But there are some doubts about the identity of that Saintess...

She might not have originated from the Celestial Sect.

This information came from three Purple-robed Heavenly Masters of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Two men and one woman, led by a man with the surname Hu, these three seem to have a rather problematic fate, basically causing trouble wherever they go.

But in terms of the business of tomb raiding and excavation, no one across the Four Continents can surpass this trio.

Recently, they excavated an ancient grotto heaven near Central Continent in Diannan County of East Continent.

The time when the grotto heaven formed can be traced back to before the establishment of the Celestial Sect.

And certain events recorded on the jade scroll found in that grotto heaven do not match at all with the history of the Celestial Sect’s founding.

Especially regarding the extraordinary Saintess’s life.

There’s a significant discrepancy.

However, Elder Wang’s notes do not detail this.

Zhang Ze snapped the notebook shut.

He thought it was enough to listen to such matters, and the task of slapping the Celestial Sect’s face should be left to the trio.

Zhang Ze had bigger things to do.

Zhang Ze wanted to reverse engineer the merging of the Beast Taming Sect’s and Sword Sect’s Heart Methods.

Since all systems of techniques in the world stem from the same origin, as long as he reverses the process, he should be able to find the common origin of the two sects’ Heart Methods.

The Beast Taming Technique of the Beast Taming Sect can aid a Spirit Beast in cultivation so that its progress keeps up with the Imperial Lord.

But there is no rule that beasts cannot control humans, allowing human cultivation to keep pace with the beast...

The Sword Sect nourishes the pill with the sword, and the pill builds Sword Intent, complementing each other.

And there’s no rule that a beast cannot act as a sword...

Let humans raise beasts, and beasts control humans...

By merging the Heart Methods of both sects, having humans and beasts cultivate together, upgrading each other, leveraging the advantage like stepping with the left foot on the right, wouldn’t cultivation speed increase?

The Thousand Mechanism Cultivator’s obsession with research leaves no time for cultivation, and this problem would naturally be solved...

Humans are easy to handle, they’re everywhere.

But dealing with beasts is tricky.

Spirit Beasts and Demon Beasts are both troublesome.

Spirit Beasts are hard to raise, which is the secret of the Beast Taming Sect.

Demon Beasts cannot be tamed.

But it seems there is one thing that might work.

That is, Stone Pill...

Although Zhang Ze didn’t know how he did it at the time, the Stone Pill can connect with a cultivator’s origin.

This relationship is closer than that between a Beast Taming Sect cultivator and a Spirit Beast.

And the riddle of Pill of Yin and Yang, Stone Pill isn’t a demon, Stone Pill as a cage also gave Zhang Ze a reminder.

Previously, even including his well-read brother-in-law, everyone thought the bodies of the Demon Race transformed into Stone Pill after death.

But after meeting Li and interacting with the Ling Liu family, Zhang Ze discovered that both Li and Ling Liu mentioned the same thing.

The process of entering the Stone Pill was identical for them both.

Initially, they both saw a speck of light in the chaos.

After entering the light, they fell into slumber again, and upon awakening, they found themselves inside a Stone Pill.

According to the Ling family’s five sisters, who reverted from Demon Race back to Stone Pill.

During the reversal process, the Stone Pill first appeared within the array.

Then their Divine Souls entered into it.

So, the Stone Pill was actually an empty shell before the Divine Souls of the Demon Race entered...

The type of beast manifesting in the Stone Pill, whether good or evil, might be possible to influence...

As long as you can consistently replicate the case of Zhang Ze and Li.

When paired with a brand-new Heart Method.

Wouldn’t the Thousand Mechanism Cultivator become invincible?

Although this act is quite like drawing cards, very Xenoblade Chronicles-like.

Zhang Ze believes he is on the right path.

The Stone Pill problem can be solved together by everyone.

But reverse engineering the Heart Method is something only Zhang Ze can do.

The current Heart Methods were tried and tested through many generations of cultivators, blood spitting, and fire walking.

Improperly cultivating Heart Methods could lead to the loss of cultivation at best and instant death at worst...

Like driving backward, naturally, one must slowly and methodically work their way back.

And Zhang Ze is very good at taking risks.

Previously, developing cultivation techniques and deconstructing array talismans has given Zhang Ze a wealth of experience in taking risks.

Many things can only find the right direction through constant trial and error.

Zhang Ze always thought such a useful trial space was a bit too wasted just for skimming off system rewards.

Time to do something more fulfilling.

For example, paving the way for Thousand Mechanism Cultivators.

How boring it is to have longevity alone, elevating together is more fun.

After organizing Elder Wang’s desk and drinking the cold tea dry, Zhang Ze left the Library Pavilion.

Visiting the Martial Arts Hall for the first time in a while, he found a meditation mat, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.

"..."

But after five seconds, Zhang Ze opened his eyes again.

"Wait, aren’t five thousand exchange points enough?"

"I remembered the Heart Method wasn’t priced like this."

"When did it increase in price?"
