Chapter 257: Chapter 253: The Seventh Pillar of the Sky-reaching Pillar_3
“Qing Yun pays his respects to Grandfather!” Qing Yun respectfully knelt and kowtowed. It was his first time meeting his grandfather, and he could not omit the proper formalities.
The senior members did not disturb them, simply watching on with smiles.
With Qing Yun present, Emperor Qing, the Perfect Immortal Emperor, naturally belonged to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect as well.
Before long, Emperor Qing, accompanied by his family, approached Li Cheng. He bowed deeply and said, “Li, my friend, you have saved my family. Words cannot express our gratitude. Should you ever have need of the Qing Family, do not hesitate to command us.”
“You are too kind, Senior Emperor Qing!” Li Cheng clasped his hands and chuckled, “Your family hasn’t seen each other for many years, take your time to catch up.”
Emperor Qing, holding his fists, led Qingxuan and the others away towards the distance.
Li Cheng turned toward the senior members, “What’s going on today? Why are all of you here waiting?”
The Seventh Elder cracked a smile, “It was the Sect Master’s command. He said that a great joy was upon us and instructed us to put aside our tasks and come to the Eighteenth Peak.”
“Indeed, the Sect Master was very secretive about it.” The Seventeenth Elder chimed in.
Li Cheng turned to Bai Xian. Could it be what Mu Xingzhi had mentioned, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture?
It probably was, for there wasn’t any other significant joyous matter aside from that.
Meeting Li Cheng’s gaze, Bai Xian laughed, “Guest Li, rest assured, the hundred years’ term I promised will be based on the time of the mundane world of the Kunlun Realm and not calculated using the cleverness of Seven Mystery Tower’s time.”
Li Cheng smiled, addressing the senior members, “Indeed, there is a joyous matter. The Wordless Sect is lending us the Wordless Heavenly Scripture to comprehend for a hundred years. Esteemed members, I leave the specific arrangements to you.”
Within the Heavenly book, countless types of cultivation techniques and secret skills were stored, all of which were comprehended from the Wordless Heavenly Scripture by predecessors. For successors to obtain them was not difficult.
The difficulty lay in relying on the Wordless Heavenly Scripture to comprehend one’s own cultivation techniques and secret skills, which required a tremendous accumulation of experience to achieve.
“One of the Ten Great Heavenly Books, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture? Haha, I told you so! The Sect Master’s Heaven Secret Technique is extraordinary. When he speaks of a great joy, he is certainly not wrong!” the Seventh Elder laughed heartily.
“You go ahead with your business; I’m going to see the Ancestor Master.”
As Li Cheng spoke, his figure already appeared on the Heaven Secret Peak.
“You deliberately revealed that tripod, yet it surprisingly didn’t attract the attention of the people from the Immortal Court, which is somewhat unexpected.” Tianji Zi’s voice rang out as soon as Li Cheng landed.
Li Cheng chuckled, “Perhaps it’s because of those eight thousand people I killed in the past.”
Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys sometimes does make sense.
Tianji Zi nodded, “I have predicted that the Heaven Secret Technique of the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor is shrouded in obscurity with a very mysterious origin. But the more it is so, the more it indicates that someone is trying to cover something up.”
Li Cheng showed surprise, he hadn’t yet spoken and the Ancestor Master already knew why he had come!
“The first to cultivate the Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture was the Ten Thousand Aspects Evil Monarch, a figure from twenty million years ago. The lifespan of an Immortal Emperor can reach over a hundred million years, thus I suspect that the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor is actually the Ten Thousand Aspects Evil Monarch.”
“But that’s not the crucial point. No matter how strong the Ten Thousand Aspects Evil Monarch is, there will always be someone stronger. The key is the Judge Pen!”
As Tianji Zi spoke, his gaze shifted toward Li Cheng, “I have predicted that you took the Judge Pen, and the people at the Immortal Court surely must have been able to predict this as well. This item contains the complete power of two types of Law, and the Immortal Court must already be growing restless!”
Li Cheng pondered for a moment, then nodded, “No matter, if someone’s Law field is stronger than mine, I’ll break it with the Judge Pen. If their Law field isn’t as strong as mine, I can suppress them with ease.”
While speaking, Li Cheng’s brows gradually furrowed, a bad premonition welling up inside.
