Chapter 535 - 535 Memory (2)
535 Memory (2)
“No wonder, when Brother Chen told me that Zhang Siyun’s grandmaster was one of the four deacons, he said that the other party wasn’t a person who played favorites. With such a Palace Master, such actions would not be permitted.”
Xu Qing fell into deep thought. After experiencing these small matters again and again, he had unknowingly gained a preliminary understanding of the Sword Holding Palace.
At the same time, he thought of what the painting old man had said.
“The god’s clone is imprisoned in the depths of the Prison Department!”
Xu Qing shook his head. He felt that it was enough for him to know about this matter. It wasn’t something he could investigate and verify.
Hence, he buried this matter in his mind and closed his eyes to sense the Fifth Heavenly Palace.
His Fifth Heavenly Palace was about to take shape. According to his judgment, it would complete its materialization in about five to six days.
“The further it goes, the slower the materialization speed will be.”
Hence, Xu Qing had been thinking about whether he should put in his life-bound mosasaur…
He felt that the first four Heavenly Palaces were not bad. Compared to them, the mosasaur was a little ordinary.
The formation of the Heavenly Palace’s golden core could be achieved not only by integrating external objects, but also by one’s own cultivation art. Xu Qing pondered about the potential outcome of fusing an emperor-level cultivation art with the Heavenly Palace.
In theory, this was possible but Xu Qing lacked some information. Hence, after some thought, he braced himself and took out the voice transmission jade slip to transmit his voice to Purple Mystic Fairy.
“Senior, are you there?”
“No.” Purple Mystic Fairy’s voice rang out from the jade slip almost instantly.
Xu Qing fell silent and there was no further reply from the jade slip.
He could tell that Purple Mystic Fairy’s tone wasn’t right. He didn’t know when he had provoked the other party, so he sent a voice transmission to Lord Fifth to ask about the integration of an emperor-level cultivation art into the Heavenly Palace.
“Ah? Didn’t Purple Mystic Fairy tell you? Before we came to the county capital, your master had communicated with her about fusing your emperor-level cultivation art as a golden core.”
“A few days ago, I even saw Senior Zi Xuan inviting some of her good friends to the sect and asking about something similar. After all, every emperor-level cultivation art is different and the method of integration is also particular. She even specially visited the three great sects and paid some price to go to their Scripture Pavilion to research.”
“If you carelessly fuse it, although it won’t be harmful, it won’t succeed.”
Xu Qing fell silent. He didn’t know that Zi Xuan had done so many things for him and waves of emotions rose in his mind. Hence, he picked up the jade slip and transmitted his voice to Zi Xuan.
“Senior…”
“Mm, who are you?” Zi Xuan’s voice rang out from the jade slip.
“Xu Qing…”
“Oh, it’s that Xu Qing who chose to stay in the Sword Pavilion and never returned in order to avoid me?”
Xu Qing didn’t know how to reply and could only speak softly.
“I heard from Lord Fifth… Thank you, Senior!”
A light snort rang out from the jade slip.
“Your Fifth Heavenly Palace is about to take shape, right? Come see me on the day it takes shape. Oh right, I like to eat the osmanthus cake from the south of the city.”
“Alright.” Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. He hurriedly kept the jade slip and made a mental note of the osmanthus cake.
“I have to find an opportunity to repay Purple Mystic Fairy in the future.” Xu Qing wasn’t good at expressing his emotions. Hence, he took out the bamboo slip and carved Zi Xuan’s name on the other side. The records there were all people who had done him a favor.
“Also, I have to hurry up with my military contributions.” Xu Qing frowned slightly when he thought of his military contributions.
After becoming a Pawn, he had a clearer understanding of obtaining military contributions. Normally speaking, as a Pawn, he would have a fixed military contribution every month.
It wasn’t much, and he was too far from his target. If he wanted to obtain more, he had to go out and complete missions.
However, even the missions didn’t give much. Those missions with more rewards were usually team missions or Nascent Soul missions.
However, in the end, with this accumulation, there would be a day when he reached the required number. Hence, he planned to complete all kinds of missions near the county capital in the following days.
After making this decision, Xu Qing closed his eyes and began to meditate.
Time flowed by. When dawn was about to arrive, Xu Qing suddenly opened his eyes.
“I seem to have forgotten something…” Xu Qing frowned and pondered. A moment later, his eyes narrowed.
“The Palace Master asked me if I really suppressed D132.”
Xu Qing mumbled. He felt that something was amiss with this sentence. What was most amiss was how he felt that his memory was so bad that he almost forgot it after he returned.
“That’s not right!” Xu Qing abruptly lifted his head. He was very confident in his memories. He shouldn’t have forgotten such a thing.
“When did my memory start to be bad?” A look of contemplation appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. After recalling his experiences, his eyes gradually narrowed.
“I’ll only unknowingly forget the memories related to D132. I won’t forget anything else.”
“And this situation also started when I became the guardian of D132!”
Xu Qing’s mind shook.
He suddenly thought of something the previous guardian, the old man who sharpened his blade, had said to him that day.
“When you think you’ve discovered everything, there’s actually more waiting for you.”
Xu Qing fell silent. After a long time, he mumbled with a cold gaze.
“I was affected by D132.”
At that moment, it was dawn outside.
However, there wasn’t much bright sunlight. The sky was gray and rain fell.
This was the rainy season in the county capital and it would last for several months.
Xu Qing stood up and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. He pushed open the Sword Pavilion’s door and walked toward the Prison Department amidst the wind and rain.
The instant he stepped into the Prison Department, he transmitted his thoughts to the Diamond Sect’s ancestor and shadow at the same time.
