Chapter 1734: Clear Revelation (II)

After performing numerous calculations, Lu Jiangxian had even obtained a few scant details about this Immortal Artifact.

The [Azure Attainment Primordial Heart Instrument]... belonged to an ancient Immortal Lord. It can cause those who calculate to miscalculate and those who investigate to overlook...

Strangely, however, Lu Jiangxian could not detect the presence of any such Immortal Artifact on the lake!

Does it not exist, or does this Immortal Artifact reside outside the great void, with its mystic functioning without passing through the great void... If neither is true, then the damaged Profound Mirror itself must be at the Dao Embryo Realm, placing it on the same level as an Immortal Artifact and preventing them from sensing each other...

Yet Lu Jiangxian's inability to sense it meant that many of the lake's secrets might already be known to the demon foxes. Qingyu Qian had even specifically cultivated [Morning Listening] to monitor the movements of mortals around the lake. The demon king claimed he had never used it, but if nothing restrained him, how could he possibly have refrained?

Mount Dali is a remnant of the Origin Mansion, which means it is an arrangement of that Mansion Lord. Both the [Azure Attainment Primordial Heart Instrument] and Qingyu Qian were left behind to protect me through those earliest years... The [Laurel-Derived Profound Light] is also the key to preventing Moongaze Lake's secrets from leaking everywhere. Otherwise, with a True Monarch presiding over Moongaze Lake, I would be unable to do anything...

Although he had never seen the [Laurel-Derived Profound Light], he had encountered something extremely similar, the [Golden Crow Transmutation Profound Light].

That light currently resided within an immortal formation beneath the sea, where it served to anchor the formation. Its power was so immense that even a True Monarch could not withstand it. This was the very formation where Li Jiangqun had secretly conferred with the other cultivators years ago!

In other words, there is more than one such immortal formation, meaning there is also a corresponding Supreme Yin immortal formation... The reason Xuan'an can still influence the affairs of the world despite his poor condition... must be this [Laurel-Derived Profound Light]...

Either this formation lies within the Origin Mansion's [Donghua Heaven], or the secret realm where the foxes hide is itself this immortal formation. Only then could it remain concealed within the great void. It appears that must be the case...

As for Xuan'an... Lu Jiangxian had not actually been entirely unaware of him!

When Wanlin Heaven had descended, the [Great Expansion Heavenly Plain Scripture] had stirred numerous influences that then descended from the heavens and spread throughout the world. Lu Jiangxian had seized the opportunity to arrange a contingency, openly presenting Li Suining as his revealed piece and using the power of the [Great Expansion Heavenly Plain Scripture] to exert influence without concealment.

However, precisely because the scheme was laid bare, a power descended from the heavens to investigate carefully when the reborn Li Suining displayed abnormalities in his memories. Lu Jiangxian had already been lying in wait, eager to discover which faction was monitoring the lake, and caught it in the act!

Only then did Lu Jiangxian become completely certain that an existence beyond the Purple Mansion Realm truly stood behind the fox tribe!

Although the aura had vanished almost as soon as it appeared, Lu Jiangxian was no longer what he once was. He had even personally performed deductions with the [Great Expansion Heavenly Plain Scripture], and recognized at a glance that the aura belonged to the [Heaven-Governing] Dao, causing his expression to turn rather peculiar...

The aura possessed an extremely high inherent rank, yet it seemed to be suppressed by something and was severely constrained. Had the [Great Expansion Heavenly Plain Scripture] not belonged to an Order of the [Heaven-Governing] Dao, allowing Lu Jiangxian to leverage that connection and intercept the aura, it would likely have dispersed like smoke before he could capture it.

This gave rise to a quiet conjecture in Lu Jiangxian's heart, Is Xuan'an simply too weak... or is he not the true master of the Immortal Artifact and likewise unable to escape the influence of the [Azure Attainment Primordial Heart Instrument]?! If it is the latter, our present position would afford us far more initiative!

Regardless of which possibility was true, the foxes had contributed immensely to the Li Family's safe development thus far. Now that Lu Jiangxian knew they possessed an immortal formation and an Immortal Artifact, he did not act rashly and silently noted the matter.

For now, I should observe how the situation develops and wait for Li Zhouwei and Chi Buzi to perfect their divine abilities and gain access to higher-level secrets... Once I clearly understand these people's origins and backgrounds... Ideally, I should wait until Li Zhouwei overcomes this tribulation, and I cross the most important threshold myself, before considering the matter further.

His attention shifted back to Fuxun in the secret chamber.

If I do not send this thing away quickly, how could Li Quewan dare enter seclusion on this island? With her current Dao conduct, she should be ready to enter seclusion within five or six years at most... Five or six years... Li Zhouwei should emerge from seclusion at least once by then. Sigh... I will simply have to spare some attention to watch over the island in the meantime.

Lu Jiangxian was not surprised that Li Quewan's cultivation speed was increasing. If a secret technique were an extremely difficult examination, then she had already spent decades studying its answers.

They spread the time required to cultivate secret techniques across the earlier years of cultivation, while the Dao theories studied during those years assist in raising cultivation and overcoming various bottlenecks... This is likely how those Golden Core Dao lineages cultivate...

This method of cultivation was somewhat slower in the early stages, but offered nothing but benefits later on. However, the profound Dao arts it required were closely tied to Purple Mansion Realm secret techniques, and only factions overseen by True Monarchs could possibly assemble a complete set.

It was precisely because studying profound Dao arts in advance greatly aided the breakthrough to the Purple Mansion Realm that Lu Jiangxian, having tasted the benefits, had hurriedly selected the [Lesser Yin Profound Monarch Water-Fire Record] for Li Jiangchun. This would not only delay the appearance of his name in the Sword Gate's records and give him more time to develop, but also prepare him for the Purple Mansion Realm!

This art could not compare to the [Profound Shamanic Spells], but it had still been carefully prepared. When the time came, even if Li Jiangchun could not cultivate secret techniques as quickly as Li Quewan, he would still far surpass Li Jiangqian.

The [Sunken Fragrance] he cultivates may belong to the Three Yin, but Lesser Yin contains abundant Yang, so cultivating in a land of Bright Yang is not particularly disadvantageous. Moreover, [Sunken Fragrance] lies at the confluence of [Lesser Yin] and [Pure Essence] and possesses the property of elevating cultivation.

Thanks to Li Suining's interference, Li Ximing was not injured and did not provoke the Pure Victory Dao. If he saves me some trouble and truly goes to the Peacock Sea to obtain a spirit herb like [Hidden Clarity Mystic Dew], which perfectly matches Jiangchun's foundation, I will have one less thing to worry about.

Furthermore, with this change and the addition of a portion of Purple Essence, Li Ximing has finally mastered [Radiance Under Heaven]. In the worst of my deductions, it took him five attempts to succeed...

Although Lu Jiangxian did not know much about the Lesser Yin Fruition Attainment, he had carefully considered his decision to choose the path of Lesser Yin. The Profound Blade given to Chi Buzi back then had consumed part of Shaohui's divine ability cultivation, but most of it had remained in Lu Jiangxian's hands. As long as an opportunity arose to bestow it and have Li Ximing refine it into a pill, combining it with [Hidden Clarity Mystic Dew] would make Li Jiangchun's cultivation speed before and after reaching Purple Mansion Realm truly astonishing.

The cultivation technique he practices has the potential to reach the sixth-grade after my modifications, but he does not have a single secret technique. That will be another major undertaking!

He groaned inwardly as he pulled several more cultivation techniques and spell arts from the pile on his desk, all of which his deductions indicated the Li Family would obtain through exchanges. He sent them to Dangjiang for urgent modification so that he would not be the only one working.
