The sky dome, or the celestial sphere barrier, is the most complicated thing Luo Yan has ever seen.
The bamboo slips given by the Wanxiang Immortal, which record the "method of repairing the sky", are essentially Nuwa's analysis and understanding of the celestial barrier.
According to the records in the bamboo slips, the sky seems to be a derivative of some kind of Tao, so it is absolutely impossible to use the Sky-Repairing Stone to simulate the celestial barrier. It would be considered good if it could reach one percent.
But even if it is only one percent, its complexity has already exceeded other formations that Luo Yan has seen - the large formation in the Guixu Palace in the past seems to be very similar to the records in the bamboo slips, both of which are the type of multi-dimensional compression.
After reading it carefully for a while, Luo Yan understood why the Immortal Wanxiang gave the bamboo slips to him.
Because the comprehension required to study this method is so high, only I, who have the ability to understand a thousand things after hearing one thing, am the best candidate to help the Wanxiang Immortal create a small sky shield for Penglai.
Of course, the idea of Wanxiang Immortal is too petty. How can my power be reflected by merely protecting the Penglai Island?
Why don't I take this fragment of the Sky-Repairing Stone, collect other fragments of the Sky-Repairing Stone at the same time, and finally piece them together into a complete Sky-Repairing Stone, and then repair the sky, wouldn't that be beautiful?
Luo Yan made up his mind, but he didn't plan to tell the Immortal Wanxiang. Instead, he planned to give him a surprise in the future.
The reason is very simple: If you say you want to repair the sky, will people believe you?
The Sky-Bulding Stone was divided into six parts, and the Orthodox side only took half of it, while Luo Yan currently only knew of the fifth one, with one still missing.
In other words, even if Luo Yan could speak eloquently and persuade everyone to cooperate sincerely, he still couldn't fix the leak in the sky - why would the immortals believe that you are repairing the sky, and not for other reasons, plotting to get the fragments of the sky-repairing stone in everyone's hands?
What's even more troublesome is that Luo Yan has no way of convincing everyone to cooperate sincerely because he can't explain how he knew the origins of the other fragments of the Bu Tian Stone.
How did you know that the Immortal Chisong also had a piece of the Heaven-Repairing Stone? Oh, you are the elder Chang Geng in Kunlun Sect, and you are quite trusted by the Immortal Chisong, so you know that Kunlun also has a piece of the stone... What, you are Qiu Changtian?
It can only be said that from the moment he ambushed into the major sects, he no longer had the chance to confess and be lenient.
Luo Yan silently read the bamboo slips, rolled them up solemnly, and returned them to the Wanxiang Immortal, saying:
"I will go back and study it carefully... By the way, what kind of rare thing is that fragment of the Heaven-Repairing Stone? I dare to ask you to take a look at it."
"Of course it's fine." Wanxiang Immortal said with a smile, "If the protective sky dome is compared to a formation, then the fragments of the sky-repairing stone are the weapon to suppress the formation. How can we ask people to study the formation but not show them the weapon to suppress the formation?"
He spread out his robe sleeves and opened a hole in the secret room, then took Luo Yan in.
"I see." Kunlun Jing was thoughtful. "There is such a small cave... The design is really exquisite, quite interesting."
"What do you mean?" Luo Yan asked hurriedly.
"You know the unique skill of 'Magic Power in the Sleeve', right?" Kunlun Jing said slowly, "To practice the Magic Power in the Sleeve, you must start from moving the cave. You have to be able to send and receive spatial fluctuations freely with just a move of your hands and feet, then you can barely get started."
"Therefore, a small cave is needed to practice the method of transportation. If you have not practiced the magic skill in your sleeve, you will never be able to open this cave from the outside world. No wonder the Wanxiang Immortal put the things here."
Luo Yan followed the Immortal Wanxiang through the cave and saw what seemed to be the interior of a tent.
There were cloth curtains on all sides, and many things were placed messily on the ground, including flying swords, magic weapons, elixirs, and all kinds of materials.
Luo Yan turned a blind eye to all this and just watched Wanxiang Immortal rummaging through the garbage dump.
"A Jing, scan his picking techniques for me!"
"No need." Kunlun Jing said, "There are no traps in this garbage dump. He is just looking for something... just like an old man in the countryside rummaging through a garbage dump."
"Let's scan and record it." Luo Yan firmly believed that the Wanxiang Immortal would not be defenseless, there must be a trap here!
"Here it is." Wanxiang Immortal finally took out a small wooden box, handed it to Luo Yan and said, "This is the fragment of the Heaven-Repairing Stone."
Luo Yan took the wooden box calmly, opened it, and saw a piece of the Sky-Bulding Stone inside. It was about the same size as the pendant on the dragon fox's neck, but it was sharper and longer.
For a moment, Luo Yan had the urge to ask A Jing to teleport him away immediately, but reason prevailed in the end - he had already robbed Penglai and alerted other orthodox sects, so he didn't want the fragments of Kunlun Shushan's Sky-Bulding Stone?
He calmly returned the wooden box to the Wanxiang Immortal and asked doubtfully:
“Is this really not just an ordinary piece of stone?”
"Of course not." Wanxiang Immortal said with a smile, "In its unactivated state, if you use your spiritual sense to scan it directly, it is indeed no different from an ordinary stone."
He stretched out two fingers, pinched the fragment of the Sky-Burn Stone, and drew a circle in the air.
Luo Yan immediately noticed that the space inside the circle seemed to have undergone some changes, as if it was isolated from the outside world.
"The great way is simple, that's what it means." The Wanxiang Immortal put the Heaven-Repairing Stone back into the box and said, "It is the condensation of a certain way, with a restrained divine light and no frills."
"It's really sad that such a rare object cannot completely repair the sky." Luo Yan sighed.
"Everything has its own lifespan, just like the sun rises and sets." Wanxiang Immortal stroked his beard and smiled, "How can there be something that is immortal? This is true for cultivators, and it is also true for the world."
"As long as I can preserve the Taoist tradition of Penglai Yuqing Temple as much as possible while I am still in this world, I will be satisfied."
"I will definitely live up to the immortal's trust." Luo Yan said solemnly.
The Wanxiang Immortal casually placed the wooden box containing the Sky-Repairing Stone on the shelf next to him, and then took Luo Yan away from the cave.
"Although I cannot take the method of casting the sky dome that I taught you earlier with you, you have the ability to understand a thousand things after hearing them once, so I think you have memorized them all." Wanxiang Immortal instructed, "In addition to your daily lessons, spend more time to comprehend the principles behind them. This will also be of great benefit to your understanding of the great Dao."
"Junior will remember this." Luo Yan said respectfully.
After leaving the secret room where the Wanxiang Immortal was, Luo Yan hurriedly asked Kunlun Mirror:
"Have all the spatial coordinates been located?"
"It cannot be located." Kunlun Mirror replied, "That cave is a folded space. It cannot be entered by teleportation. It must be opened by the magic of the sleeve magic."
"What is folded space?"
"Folding space is..."
"Forget it." Luo Yan said impatiently, "So if I want to seize the fragments of Penglai's Heaven-Repairing Stone, I have to learn the magic of the sleeve magic?"
