Chapter 301 – Great Weitian Dragon

Chapter 301 – Great Weitian Dragon

Chi Xiaoyao hesitated and said, "This..."

Doctor Dong said, "The main responsibility of the Tower Master is to protect the members of the Tower. Although he is still young, his responsibility remains. We should leave first, for our own protection."

Chi Xiaoyao reluctantly said, "Sir, let's take Lao Zongzi with us first."

Because Jing Zhao was tightly bound by Su Yun with the Immortal Binding Rope, his face was not visible on ordinary days, so Chi Xiaoyao called him Lao Zongzi.

Doctor Dong said, "It's too late. When I killed Jin Tianying and Fang Jianqiu, I used immortal techniques. The power of the spells cannot be concealed, and it will definitely alarm the experts in the Imperial Palace. Lao Zongzi is bound by the Tower Master there, like a prisoner. Even if someone catches him, they will most likely release him."

The two of them quickly flew away, and from a distance, they saw beams of light flying towards the Medical God Palace.

Chi Xiaoyao felt a chill in her heart, knowing that it was impossible to take Jing Zhao away.

There were many experts in the Imperial Palace, including Yu Daoyuan, the Grand Master of the Great Qin Kingdom, who had reached the Yuandao realm and was known as the Sword of the Divine Emperor!

If they alarmed Yu Daoyuan, they would definitely not be able to escape!

"It was my negligence this time. I should have thought that my old friend would covet my body."

They quickly left the Imperial Palace and the Star City. Doctor Dong said, "I didn't expect that I didn't cure Lao Zongzi's illness, but instead implicated him and the Tower Master. Now they can only deal with the situation themselves, and we will continue to search for the next old friend."

Chi Xiaoyao worriedly asked, "Can Junior Brother Su and Lao Zongzi escape?"

Doctor Dong said, "It's hard to say for Lao Zongzi, but Su Tower Master is the Tower Master of our Tower of Heaven. He will definitely be able to turn the danger into safety."

Chi Xiaoyao glanced at him and thought, "The teacher's confidence in him is even stronger than mine..."

There was chaos in the Medical God Palace in the Imperial Palace. Someone shouted, "Something big has happened! The Tai Dou of the Medical God Palace, Fang Jianqiu, was killed by thieves!"

Another person shouted, "Jin Tianying, the number one medical expert in the Great Qin Kingdom and the master of the Divine Sword, was also killed!"

Inside and outside the Medical God Palace, it was in chaos. The palace masters of the Imperial Palace immediately rushed over and ordered a thorough investigation. After a while, someone reported, "It was an old friend of Fang Tai Dou, a visitor named Dong, who killed Fang Tai Dou and Jin Shen Dao! That Dong person has fled with a demon woman named Chi and their whereabouts are unknown! There is also a disciple named Zhang San, who is also a thief disciple of the Dong family, and now he has become the eldest senior brother of the Medical God Palace and has gone to the Heavenly Court to pay respects."

"What is happening to the Medical God Palace? How could it be taken by that Zhang San as the eldest senior brother?"

The palace masters of the Imperial Palace couldn't help but be angry. They ordered the capture of Su Yun, but a teacher from the Imperial Palace reported, "The scholars have already been sent to the Heavenly Court. Without the summoning of the Divine Emperor, no one can enter."

"Can this matter be reported to the Divine Emperor?"

"A trivial worldly matter, troubling the Divine Emperor, who can afford the blame?"

The palace masters could only helplessly say, "Wait until Zhang San returns, then capture him and interrogate him properly. We must catch the thief named Dong!"

They ordered someone to draw portraits of Doctor Dong and Chi Xiaoyao and sent them to the National Teacher's Mansion. The National Teacher's Mansion distributed them to the various counties of the Great Qin Kingdom, wanted for Doctor Dong and Chi Xiaoyao.

The scholars of the Medical God Palace searched the residences of the three people and finally discovered Jing Zhao, who was placed in a corner of the wall by Su Yun. Those scholars didn't know how dangerous it was and played with the Immortal Binding Rope wrapped around Jing Zhao's head, but they couldn't untie it because the Immortal Binding Rope had been refined by Su Yun.

After playing with it for a while, they accidentally revealed the silver needle suppressed under the rope.

One scholar said, "There is another accomplice here! An old man who is still a thief at his old age!"

Another scholar laughed and said, "If he is an accomplice, how could he be bound so tightly? This person is most likely their prisoner. Oh, there is a needle on his head. Let me pull it out and take a look." After speaking, he grabbed the silver needle and pulled it up.

"This needle is so long!"

The two scholars were amazed. They saw that the silver needle was more than two feet long, and it was still there. They were both astonished, "This needle is probably inserted from the top of the head to the end of the tailbone!"

"You're wrong."

The old man under the rope suddenly spoke, "It was inserted from the Baihui point on top of my head, through the first cervical vertebra, all the way down to the tip of my coccyx. This is the main needle."

The two scholars were shocked. They saw the silver needle suddenly break free from their control, spinning and falling out. They heard the old man under the rope say, "The auxiliary needle is inserted into my spiritual essence, immobilizing my six senses, making me unable to see, hear, touch, smell, taste, or have any awareness."

Whoosh!

The silver needle flew out from the top of the old man's head. The two scholars were shocked and quickly stepped back. One scholar said, "Fortunately, he is bound and unable to move..."

Jing Zhao muttered to himself, and the Immortal Binding Rope automatically fell off, turning into a golden dragon flying around him, and then turned into a belt, coiling around his waist.

Jing Zhao had a tall and majestic physique, with a hint of dignity. He said, "You don't need to worry. I am the former Lord of the Fire Cloud Cave in the Yuan Shuo Holy Land. Take me to meet the Palace Master of your Imperial Palace, and I will explain to him."The two scholars from the Medical God Palace were intimidated by his authority, and seeing his dignified appearance, they said, "Elder, please follow us."

The two led the way, guiding him out of the Medical God Palace. One of the scholars said, "Elder, do you recognize Zhang San? Zhang San's accomplice has committed a crime and killed..."

"Hmph, mistress!" Jing Zhao angrily said.

The two were puzzled, "Mistress? What mistress?"

At that moment, Jing Zhao grabbed the heads of the two scholars and knocked them heavily, causing them to faint. Jing Zhao's body burst into flames as he shouted, "Mistress!" After speaking, he left angrily.

"In this world, there really exists the Heavenly Court!" Su Yun stood among the disciples of the Emperor's Palace, extremely astonished.

Not far away was Yu Shuangyun, staring at him intently. Yu Shuangyun had been staring at him for a long time.

This woman was the senior sister of the Emperor's Palace, with extraordinary skills. Her swordsmanship had reached the edge of the Divine Emperor's Sword Art. She challenged Su Yun in the Martial Saint Pavilion of the Sword Pavilion and was killed by Su Yun with the Immortal Sword, slaying the Demon Dragon, and entering the Heavenly Court.

Although she lost to Su Yun, his Divine Emperor's Sword Art was truly stunning.

However, Su Yun had disguised himself as Zhang San and infiltrated the team of disciples who were going to the Heavenly Court to meet the God King and the Divine Emperor. This immediately caught the attention of Yu Shuangyun. She stared at him fixedly, as if a flower had bloomed on his face.

Feeling uncomfortable under her gaze, Su Yun touched the mole under his left eye and wondered, "Doesn't my disguise look convincing? I made myself shorter and darker, and I even added a mole under my left eye that almost ruins my appearance. How can she still recognize me?"

Yu Shuangyun walked towards him.

Su Yun pretended not to see her and continued to look up at the Heavenly Gate.

Indeed, the road to the Heavenly Court to meet the God King and the Divine Emperor was a Heavenly Gate!

This Heavenly Gate was over ten zhang tall and had various divine and demonic imprints on it. It bore some resemblance to the Heavenly Gate in Tianmen Town and the Heavenly Gate in the Ghost Market.

Standing in front of this Heavenly Gate in the Emperor's Palace, Su Yun thought he had returned to Yuanshuo Tian Market!

However, as a native of Tianmen Town, Su Yun was very familiar with the Heavenly Gate. Coupled with the imprints of Tianmen Town in his eyes, he immediately noticed many differences between this Heavenly Gate in the Emperor's Palace and the real Heavenly Gate.

The Heavenly Gate in Tianmen Town and the Heavenly Gate in the Ghost Market had ninety-six divine and demonic imprints, but the Heavenly Gate in the Emperor's Palace had made significant changes. Although it had fewer types of divine and demonic beings than the real Heavenly Gate, it had more in quantity, with a total of one hundred and eight divine and demonic beings, appearing more complex!

Comparing it with the real Heavenly Gate, Su Yun's doubts grew stronger.

"Who came to Yuanshuo and studied the Heavenly Gate, creating this Heavenly Gate in the Western Region?"

His eyes twitched as he thought, "He made changes based on the Heavenly Gate. If I record these changes, I can also create a similar Heavenly Gate..."

"Lord Su!" Yu Shuangyun approached him and suddenly said.

Su Yun turned to look at her, surprised, "Who are you, miss? Who is Su Gezhu? Please don't insult me."

Yu Shuangyun sneered, "Su Yun, Lord Su, don't deny it. Is disguising yourself like this an insult to me as a blind person?"

Su Yun honestly said, "Miss, I am Zhang San, Zhang as in the bow, and San as in one, two, three, four. I just entered the school..."

At this moment, many teachers from the Emperor's Palace surrounding the Heavenly Gate activated their true essence and injected it into the Heavenly Gate. Various imprints on the Heavenly Gate gradually lit up.

Su Yun quickly memorized the changes in the imprints on the Heavenly Gate, and Yu Shuangyun sneered, "Anyone in this world who wants to do bad things will use the name Zhang San. Zhang San is the person who does the most bad things in this world! By using the name Zhang San, you must be planning to do something bad in my Emperor's Palace!"

Su Yun blushed, "Miss, please don't make baseless accusations..."

"Baseless accusations?"

Yu Shuangyun sneered, "With me watching you, you won't be able to do anything bad!"

The imprints of the Heavenly Gate on the door frame were activated, moving around on the door like living creatures. Suddenly, divine light surged from the door, forming a light curtain inside the door.

The disciples lined up neatly and entered the light curtain one after another. A teacher from the Emperor's Palace shouted, "Entering the Heavenly Court, you can visit the various palaces and observe the divine and demonic beings. But your main goal on this trip is to meet the Divine Emperor and observe his heroic appearance. Don't lose sight of your goal!"

This time, there were only twenty disciples entering the Heavenly Court. Soon, it was Su Yun's turn, and he took one last look at the Heavenly Gate before walking into the light curtain.

Yu Shuangyun also entered, saying behind him, "With me here..."

Layers of light curtains surged, permeating their bodies, entering the Spirit Realm, and engulfing their souls.

When the light curtains receded, they appeared in another world. Someone shouted, "Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon! It's the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon God!"Looking ahead, Yu Shuangyun saw the heavenly palace, with its thousands of halls and countless pavilions, towering and immense. The beautifully carved beams and painted rafters were a sight to behold. The closest to them was the Great Weitian Dragon Palace. The palace doors were wide open, with the Great Weitian Dragon God seated within. The divine dragon coiled around its body, its physical form ferocious. Red ribbons fluttered behind it, filled with a wild sense of power.

Beside him, the voices of all beings chanting mixed together, creating a resounding sound that never ceased.

"He possesses the power of a Yuan Daoist!"

Yu Shuangyun felt a shiver pass through her spirit, and she couldn't help but want to kneel down. "But the pressure of the spirit is even stronger, making one want to bow down in worship!"

Already, many scholars were unable to resist the divine pressure and knelt down to worship the Great Weitian Dragon God. The Dragon God then stood up, the divine dragon coiling around its body, walking through the crowd of scholars, with the rune marks on its body flickering uncertainly.

Yu Shuangyun, suppressing the urge to kneel, suddenly saw "Zhang San" squatting on the ground, acting suspiciously.

Yu Shuangyun sneered and quietly approached him from behind, thinking, "I wonder what kind of scheme you're plotting!"

She looked down and saw "Zhang San" drawing a circle on the ground, inside which was a wooden box. Suddenly, the box disappeared, and the next moment, it reappeared.

"Zhang San, what are you doing?" Yu Shuangyun demanded.

Su Yun looked up, his expression mysterious. "I'm testing whether this is the spirit world or the real world. If the heavenly court is the spirit world, then we might have entered someone's spirit world. Whether this spirit world is within his body or created by him, we can test it out in the simplest way."

"Nonsense, this is the real heavenly court, the dwelling place of the gods, not some spirit world! You're speaking blasphemy! You're not behaving like a scholar!"

Yu Shuangyun scolded him, but her curiosity was piqued. She squatted across from him, asking skeptically, "How do you test it?"

"It's simple. If we're in the real world, I can take out a physical object from my spirit world, like the wooden box of the Tongtian Pavilion Master."

Yu Shuangyun blinked, grabbed the collar of his robe, and demanded, "You have the key to the Tongtian Pavilion, and you still claim you're not Master Su?"

Su Yun glanced at her chest, which was bulging due to her kneeling position, pushed her hand away, averted his gaze, then sneakily glanced again, continuing, "Pull up your collar, you're distracting me."

Yu Shuangyun looked down and noticed her somewhat exposed chest due to her kneeling position. She pulled down her collar and laughed, "Go on."

Su Yun's eyes sparkled as he reluctantly averted his gaze, "If this is the real world, we can move the key of the Tongtian Pavilion from the spirit world in one step, just by passing through our own spirit world. If this is the spirit world, then it would take two steps. Moving it out of my spirit world and into this spirit world."

His gaze returned to her, "An extra step means there's a slight change in time."

Yu Shuangyun asked curiously, "So what result did you get?"

Su Yun shook his head, "The clock of the Tongtian Pavilion Master can only measure time to the smallest unit of 'hu', it can't measure more precise and minute time. I plan to divide the clock of the Tongtian Pavilion Master into 360 scales. This scale is smaller than 'hu', I call it 'wei'."

Yu Shuangyun watched as a small clock appeared in front of him, showing the eighth ring, with 360 scales on the ring. The texture of the inner wall of the clock was constantly evolving, and the gears were gradually increasing.

Finally, the eighth ring began to rotate, 360 times faster than the seventh ring. With her eyesight, she couldn't see how many scales it moved in an instant!

Su Yun sent the wooden box away and then took it out again, his face slightly changing.

Yu Shuangyun asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Did you calculate the result?"

Su Yun nodded, his face serious, "There's an extra 'wei' of time. So, this place is..."

Yu Shuangyun felt as if a tsunami was raging in her mind, her head spinning, she murmured, "This is the spirit world... none of this is real..."
