Chapter 750 - 267: Borrowing Fortune Secret Skill
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhan’s expression first showed a moment of surprise, and then his face turned solemn.
If the Zifu Elder of Celestial Sandalwood Mountain were to truly descend to the land of Yangnao, it wouldn’t be surprising if they took the opportunity to avenge the Yin Tiger Demon King and attack the Shen Family.
It is the Purple Mansion, after all.
Though it achieved the Purple Mansion through taking shortcuts, it’s still not comparable to a Golden Core cultivator.
"Senior Brother, what should we do now?"
After some contemplation, Xu Zhan spoke solemnly.
Shen Chongming stood with his hands behind his back, silently gazing at the distant sky. After pondering for a long time, he said, "I heard that Third Uncle went to Danzhou earlier to discuss support with the Cyan Ruo Sword House."
"How is the situation now?"
Xu Zhan slightly shook his head.
He was aware of this matter, but he wasn’t very clear about the specific response from the Cyan Ruo Sword House.
"Let’s wait a bit longer. If it comes to it, I’ll find a way to make a trip to Danzhou."
Sighing softly, Shen Chongming spoke in a deep voice.
Third Uncle Shen Wen’an is in seclusion, and it’s unclear when he will come out. If it becomes urgent, he will have to take the risk, hoping that Luo Tianxing guarding the boundary will give him some face.
The spirit of Celestial Aromatic Mountain has just begun to manifest strange phenomena and should take some time to fully transform.
And during this period, Feng Xi of Celestial Sandalwood Mountain shouldn’t come to Yangnao Land prematurely.
After all, her existence is a secret to other Southern Border forces, and Celestial Sandalwood Mountain would definitely keep her as a trump card, not deploying her until a critical moment.
Xu Zhan nodded and then said, "In that case, Senior Brother, take care of matters at home first. I must hurry back to comprehend the insights on the Impeccable Golden Body, hoping to gain some breakthroughs before the battle erupts."
Without mastering the Impeccable Golden Body, he himself remains a troublesome source.
Shen Chongming lowered his head slightly, "Do not enter a dead-end seclusion; given the current situation, new changes could occur at any time."
After nodding again, Xu Zhan clasped his hands and left the old residence.
Courtyard beneath the mountain.
In the secret room, Shen Wen’an sat cross-legged, his entire body exuding an extremely peculiar aura.
This aura carried both the chilling nature of the Underworld and an exalted, divine-like majesty, evoking a sense of authoritative dignity.
Under the influence of this aura, the Sword Intent within him surged autonomously.
The Sword Intent intertwined with this divine-like aura, presenting a complex and mysterious peculiar state.
The originally cyan Sword Intent Cyan Lotus was manifesting around him, but its color shifted continually between purple-black and cyan.
Shen Wen’an kept his eyes tightly closed, his brows slightly furrowed, clearly facing a perplexing dilemma.
Within the Dantian, his Divine Sense, shaped into a body, sat cross-legged inside.
Before it lay the Lifebound Flying Sword transformed into a Golden Core Sword Pill, emanating a warm, immortal golden light.
Strangely, beneath this Golden Core Sword Pill, a purple array covering nearly a third of the Dantian’s size rotated slowly.
The array’s patterns were intricate, and its emitted purple glow merged with the Sword Pill’s immortal golden light, creating a noble purple-gold hue.
This purple array was exactly the Rune Mark previously imprinted on the Three-inch Dragon Soul Magical Sword.
After the Dragon Soul Magical Sword absorbed all the power from the Yin General of the Underworld, the incomplete Rune Mark was completed.
At the start of his seclusion, his Divine Sense entered the Dantian and saw the completed Rune Mark slowly peeling off the Lifebound Flying Sword, forming this peculiar array within the Dantian.
Over several days, Shen Wen’an meticulously studied it for a long time, but due to his limited understanding of Array Dao, he couldn’t ascertain what this array truly was.
For now, he could only vaguely feel that his Golden Core Sword Pill, nourished by this array, was undergoing some gradual transformation.
This transformation’s specific manifestation was his new comprehension of space.
Initially, Shen Wen’an did not know that this strange sensation from the purple array was related to space.
It was only when he inadvertently recalled seeing the two Yin Envoys of the Underworld silently traverse to Yangnao Land using the Void Escape Shuttle during Shen Chongming’s breakthrough, that an epiphany struck, revealing that this strange sensation was indeed a spatial comprehension.
With this discovery, Shen Wen’an vaguely guessed that the purple array within his Dantian, containing Underworld power, might be a valuable aid in understanding the power of laws.
And this law might just be the Space Law.
Regarding laws, he had previously witnessed such when visiting Huaisang to retrieve the Black Tripod with Luo Tianxing.
Luo Tianxing’s miraculous technique of Shrinking Inches, traversing thousands of miles in an instant, was an application of the power of laws.
When cultivators achieve the Immortal Golden Core, they can actually begin to simply wield the power of laws.
For instance, people like Hong Ye from Jianan Temple frequently employed the power of cause and effect to plot against the Shen family.
According to Shen Wen’an, realms can also be considered a form of law, potentially seen as a nascent form of laws.
As to whether this hypothesis is correct, he can’t verify it and would have to consult high-level experts when the opportunity arises.
Unable to fathom the purple array’s mysteries, his Divine Sense slowly receded from the Dantian.
Opening his eyes, after some pondering, Shen Wen’an lightly waved his hand.
In a flash of light, the enormous Cyan Yuan Sword Nurturing Gourd suddenly appeared before him.
Gazing at the Cyan Yuan Sword Nurturing Gourd flickering with cyan light before him, his expression was somewhat odd.
Ever since it absorbed the Broken Sword from the Crane Demon, this Cyan Yuan Sword Nurturing Gourd seemed to have undergone some slight changes.
Having held the Cyan Yuan Sword Nurturing Gourd for decades, it had never previously shown any signs of spiritual charm, appearing much like an ordinary gourd.
