Chapter 542 Tianxuan: 'Some things should be said openly and honestly...'

"If the Jitian method can be set up so easily, why did King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang, have to do something to change the fate of King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fa, before he died?" At the end, Donghuang Taiyi's magnetic middle-aged voice revealed a hint of sarcasm.

"I see."

Even though what Donghuang Taiyi said had not been confirmed, Duke Chu Nan subconsciously believed it to a certain extent, because it was the most reasonable explanation.

"What will happen to the person who sets up the formation?"

After a pause, Lord Chu Nan asked.

Donghuang Taiyi's words were filled with helplessness: "I don't know what exactly will happen to me. But at least my life span will be exhausted and I will die. If my luck is worse, I will be sent to the eighteen levels of hell and never be reborn!"

hiss!
'Eighteen levels of hell!'

This world is also the earliest setting from Tianxuan's Primordial Desolation. In the Primordial Desolation setting, the time of the heaven, the underworld, and the human world is not equal. One day in heaven is one year on earth, one day in heaven is one year on earth; one day in the human world is one year on earth, and one day in the human world is one year in the underworld.

The Eighteen Hells are not divided into high and low levels. The more levels one is thrown into, the longer one will suffer, according to one's sins in life! Although Chu Nangong knew that Donghuang Taiyi said this just to scare him, he still felt a little terrified when he thought of the various punishments in the Eighteen Hells.

At that moment, Lord Chu Nan fell into an unprecedented silence. Donghuang Taiyi and Shan Gui, who were sitting at the top, looked down at Lord Chu Nan's ever-changing expression.

After a long time, the fear, worry, anger and other emotions on Chu Nangong's face disappeared in an instant, turning into a normal state of indifference. With a slight flip of his right hand, an ancient copper box, seemingly ordinary but actually containing endless history, appeared in his palm.

When Lord Chu Nan took out the copper box, Donghuang Taiyi's attention was attracted by it. He recognized at a glance that the copper box in Lord Chu Nan's hand was one of the seven copper boxes he had dreamed of, and it was not a fake.

"Bring me the Heaven-Defying Method!"

Lord Chu Nan took out the copper box, stared at the scroll in the mountain ghost's hand, and said in a firm tone.

“Lord Chu Nan, you are so courageous.” Donghuang Taiyi uttered words of admiration from under his mask, “You knew that once you used the Great Method of Jitian, not only would you lose your life, but you might even be sent to the eighteenth level of hell after death, yet you still insisted!”

"I haven't even fully understood what's going on when I'm alive, so why should I care about what happens after I die?" Facing Donghuang Taiyi's words that were both admiring and mocking, Lord Chu Nan said in a deep voice.

"This is a great thing to say."

Donghuang Taiyi thought about it and agreed with Lord Chu Nan's point of view.

Following Donghuang Taiyi's words, the mountain ghost, who had been prepared, threw the scroll in his hand without hesitation. The scroll recording the essence of the Great Law of the Heaven drew a nearly perfect arc in the sky and fell directly towards Lord Chu Nan. Lord Chu Nan raised his head and looked at the scroll falling towards him. In an instant, his eyes could only accommodate this thing.

The Chu expert threw the copper box in his hand without hesitation and threw it towards Donghuang Taiyi on the high platform. The moment he threw the copper box, Chu Nangong's short body soared into the air, and with a nimble speed that perfectly contradicted his body, he grabbed the flying scroll in the air.

In a flash, in the eyes of Chu Nangong, the scroll that embodied the hope of Chu's restoration fell into his hands. Then, Chu Nangong, who entered Luoshengtang alone, shot towards the palace gate like an arrow. Although the footsteps were dangerous and would end in pieces if he was not careful, the speed of this Chu sage was incredibly fast. Within one hundredth of a breath, he reached the half-open palace door. With a flip, he broke through the palace door and left.

Snapped!
Until Lord Chu Nan fled, Donghuang Taifang grabbed the copper box and a crisp sound was heard. "Want to run?"

Since joining the Yin-Yang family, she has been particularly valued by Donghuang Taiyi. In recent years, Shan Gui, who has replaced Yan Fei and become the heir of the Yin-Yang family, saw Chu Nangong escaping with the essence of the Jiaotian Dafa, and her cherry lips curled up, a bloodthirsty look appeared on her delicate face, and she subconsciously wanted to catch up with him while speaking murderously.

"No need."

Donghuang Taiyi spoke to stop the mountain ghost.

The mountain ghost was startled, and looked at Donghuang Taiyi in confusion: "Sir Donghuang, why did you let him go?"

"Transaction," Donghuang Taiyi waved his sleeves, took the fusion that originally belonged to the Chu State into his sleeves, and hid it on his body, "What matters is credibility! Although the Jitian Dafa can defy fate, it also needs to conform to certain trends of heaven and earth. Now, the empire is stable. Even if Lord Chu Nan defies fate for Xiang Shaoyu, at best he can only give Xiang Shaoyu a hegemon fate. It is impossible for him to establish a new dynasty!"

"Really?" Shan Gui was reserved about Donghuang Taiyi's point of view.

"Your Excellency Donghuang, there is only one copper box left. How do you plan to get it?" After a pause, the mountain ghost said meaningfully.

The last copper box, which also belongs to the empire, is the most difficult to obtain.

After hearing the mountain ghost's words, Donghuang Taiyi, who was covered in a black robe, did not react at all, because everything about him was covered by the black robe, mask, and gloves, and it was impossible to determine from his expression what kind of emotional fluctuations the mountain ghost's words had caused him. However, the mountain ghost was sure that this Lord Donghuang had woken up from his ecstasy and returned to the world.

It was because the black robe stopped shaking, and it stuck to Donghuang Taiyi's body like a piece of underwear.

"If you can't think of a solution, why not ask the Lord of the East and the Moon God to take action?" After a while, seeing that Donghuang Taiyi did not respond, the mountain ghost said, "First, the two ladies are the concubines of the Wushuang Lord who has the greatest hope of becoming the crown prince of the empire; second, they have an irreconcilable feud with the empire. They have enjoyed wealth and glory in the empire for many years. Have they really forgotten their own names?"

"Hmph!" When the mountain ghost said this, Donghuang Taiyi let out an unhappy snort under his mask.

………………

Tianxuan Temple.

"Sir, it's getting dark. Where do you plan to rest tonight?"

Xiao Yu was wearing a pink skirt, and her three thousand soft and shiny black hair was casually draped over her shoulders. When the cold wind blew, her hair danced, looking elegant. A pair of jade legs wrapped in a light green skirt came to Tianxuan with small steps. The moment her beautiful eyes like black gemstones fell on Tianxuan, she was filled with endless emotions.

"Let's go to Yan Fei." Tian Xuan looked indifferent, stood up from the wooden chair, and walked out. "It's been so long, some things should be put to rest openly and honestly."

Tianxuan left his bookish study and walked in the quiet corridor. As he approached Yanfei's residence, an ambiguous look appeared on Tianxuan's face and he spoke slowly.
