Chapter 506: Heavenly Secret Tower
The Immortal Palace is a tough opponent, but it is ultimately just an obstacle encountered in achieving the goal of world peace.
If the world were to fall into chaos just to get rid of the Immortal Palace, it would be a loss.
Li Yanmo could roughly guess why Emperor Yu suddenly staged a drama of the Military Sect taking over the Confucian Sect. It was nothing more than to put pressure on the Immortal Palace and increase the intensity so that the Immortal Palace would have to jump out and take action.
This method did blow up the Immortal Palace, but it also caused quite a bit of turmoil. The Military School was the sword of the Dayu Dynasty, while the Confucian School was the whip of the Dayu Dynasty, lashing out at the court and the emperor, letting the people know that the Dayu Dynasty would never go astray, not to mention that there were many famous Confucian scholars in the Confucian School.
The people of Dayu were the most affected by the takeover of the Confucian school by the military school. Many scholars even took to the streets to protest and harshly criticize Emperor Yu for this move.
But the reality is that the contemporary Emperor Yu was a well-known sage emperor before he let the military school take over the Confucian school. He also studied in the Confucian school when he was a prince. Those great Confucian scholars would bring up the contemporary Emperor Yu every time they taught their students, so when those scholars criticized him, they would beat their chests and stamp their feet, shouting that they were confused.
Li Yanmo also understood why Emperor Yu did not revoke his order. The Immortal Palace was only severely damaged, not destroyed. The show had to go on, but it was not a good idea to keep going like this.
"About this matter... I'm not very clear about it. In fact, this matter has caused quite a controversy in the court. Many people think that it has gone a bit too far," Mo Changzai scratched his face.
His status in Dayu was not low, second only to the six ministers, but his position was so low that he seldom returned to the court. Even though he could get the news first, some details were only known to those present.
Li Yanmo pinched his chin and paced back and forth. After walking a few circles, he asked, "What is Emperor Yu doing now?"
"On the surface, he is still in charge of Baidi City, but secretly he has gone to the Eight Wastelands."
Li Yanmo breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Judging from the fact that he went out to kill the monster in secret, Emperor Yu is still the same Emperor Yu.
"But... he seemed to have had a fight with Marquis Bahuang? According to people familiar with the matter, it seemed that Marquis Bahuang was the first to start the fight, shouting that he should have been shot on the wall back then, and then Emperor Yu seemed to have said... even if he was shot on the wall, he would help him scrape it off and pour it in... something like that," Mo Changzai scratched his face with a subtle expression.
Li Yanmo was completely relieved and left with satisfaction.
When Zhuge Moer returned to the Spirit Beast Garden, the Tianji Tower had already been built. Generally speaking, it was no different from the one built by Nuyao, but if you looked closely, you could still find many small flaws that were inevitable during the actual construction. But as the Tianji Tower was started and self-checked and adjusted, those small flaws were filled.
Zhuge Moer, the designer, rubbed his hands excitedly.
"How do you plan to test it?" Li Yanmo was also a little curious.
Although what Nuyao built was also the Tianji Tower and it could move, it looked like a small model, and Nuyao herself was also tinkering with it. Zhuge Moer's was the real finished product.
"Then how about testing whether this spirit stone is facing up or down when it falls?" Zhuge Moer's eyes turned and he took out a spirit stone from his arms, "Master, do you want to make a bet with me? I bet that the result deduced by the Heavenly Secret Tower is correct."
"Okay," Li Yanmo put his hands on his hips, looking very interested.
"good--"
Zhuge Moer raised his hand and slapped the Tianji Tower. Soon a strange wave came from the Tianji Tower. Zhuge Moer curled the corners of his mouth slightly, took out a piece of paper, wrote the answer on it, and hid it in his pocket.
Li Yanmo raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to signal Zhuge Moer that he could throw it away.
Zhuge Moer threw the spirit stone up with a "hey".
Li Yanmo stared at the spirit stone spinning in the air and concentrated his spiritual energy in his eyes. Time slowed down at this moment. In this situation, Li Yanmo could easily predict the state of the spirit stone falling.
But this is too simple. There are only three possible results: heads, tails, and vertical with a low probability.
Li Yanmo's eyes lit up red, and the moment the spirit stone was about to fall to the ground, he used his thermal light eyes to blast it.
"...Master, aren't you cheating?" Zhuge Moer couldn't help but complain.
"It's hard to predict what will happen," Li Yanmo snorted, "So what's the result?"
Zhuge Moer slowly took out the note, hesitated for a few seconds and then quickly opened it. The note clearly stated that Li Yanmo had used the thermal eye to blow up the spirit stone.
Li Yanmo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but seeing Zhuge Moer so proud, he felt a little embarrassed, "What if I didn't blow up the spirit stone?"
"Then the note must have written a different answer," Zhuge Moer stuck out her tongue, "The Tianji Tower also said that Sister Cheng will come to you crying later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Yuejie arrived, but her face was cold and calm, as if she had reached the legendary state of still water.
But as soon as she arrived in front of Li Yanmo, Cheng Yuejie collapsed, covering her face and started crying.
"Li, Sect Master Li, I can't hold on any longer. The super sect has decided to hold a demon-killing ceremony, and they have been nominating me to be the host!"
Li Yanmo was silent for a while, then raised his hand and patted Cheng Yuejie on the shoulder. Cheng Yuejie's eyes lit up as if she saw hope.
"Xiao Cheng, how about you hold on a little longer?"
Cheng Yuejie finally left crying.
Li Yanmo pinched his chin and walked around Tianxu Tower a few times without saying a word.
Zhuge Moer saw at a glance that Li Yanmo still didn't believe that the Tianji Tower had such magical functions, and said unhappily, "Master, this Tianji Tower is very scientific and logical!"
"Can you please introduce this?"
"Master! I was introducing it to you before! But you fell asleep!" Upon hearing this, Zhuge Moer stomped his feet in anger. However, after stomping his feet, Zhuge Moer still tried hard to think about how to make Li Yanmo think that the Tianji Tower is actually very scientific.
If the principle was explained directly, Li Yanmo would probably start yawning again.
"Master, do you know how bats, which have almost no vision, catch insects?"
Li Yanmo suddenly understood, "I understand."
Zhuge Moer's nose was almost crooked with anger. "The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is everywhere. Any slight change in the world will cause waves of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and those waves have their own directions. The direction produced by the waves' mutual influence is the so-called heaven's secret. The farther away, the smaller the amplitude of the waves, and the more difficult it is to predict."
"The Tianji Tower can release spiritual energy covering an area by burning spiritual stones. This spiritual energy will make the waves obvious."
"The more spirit stones you invest, the more waves you can capture, and the farther away you can get. Through the special algorithm of the Tianji Pavilion, you can calculate the so-called future."
"But... everything in the world is connected. Even a butterfly flapping its wings on the other side of the world can affect the trend here."
"If we ignore the impact of this tiny butterfly, the results of the calculations may be very different."
"The coverage of a Tianji Tower is limited, so we can only keep burning spirit stones to ensure that we don't miss any waves."
