Chapter 378 The Spiritual Mirror is also moving
"What is that?"
"etc……"
"I saw..."
"I have comprehended the Heavenly Book, I have comprehended the Heavenly Book!"
In the outer courtyard of Tianshu Academy, on the enlightenment platform.
As a burst of breath spread out, a freshman who had just entered the outer courtyard opened his eyes, looked up to the sky and howled with trembling hands.
This young man from Zhongzhou is named Zhang Jue. He was admitted to the hospital because of his elder brother's military merits, and his spirit has just been awakened.
Although his cultivation level was extremely low, his talent was still quite good. Even without the blessing of spirit stones, he still successfully crossed the threshold of the lower three realms. He was much better than many people who were admitted because of military merit.
But even so, he still seemed like a marginal figure in the outer courtyard where many children from aristocratic families gathered.
But who knew that at this moment, he actually sensed the heavenly book.
However, just as he was overjoyed, a young man from a noble family named Zhang Shilong who was in front of Zhang Jue on the left suddenly shook his body, and Taoist patterns appeared all over his body.
Following closely behind was a student named Ding Chen, who also had a brilliant light from his forehead to the top of his head.
Seeing this scene, many students from the outer courtyard who were also in the enlightenment field opened their eyes and showed horror.
The news of three people being enlightened at once exploded instantly in the outer courtyard of Tianshu Academy.
Soon, countless teachers from the teaching academy flew over.
When they saw those disciples crying with joy, their cheeks wet with tears, their hearts trembled, and then they looked at the Dao rhyme that had not yet dissipated, and a look of ecstasy welled up on their faces.
"Have you truly comprehended the Heavenly Book?"
"Yes, this is how it works to comprehend the Heavenly Book. You'll be surrounded by the Dao Rhythm, which lasts for about half a cup of tea!"
"After four years, finally someone has sensed the Heavenly Book again, and there are three of them!"
Among the excited teachers, Ding Ang, who had taught Chu He, Ma Zhiyuan, who had taught Lu Qingqiu, and Wu Kai, who had taught Du Zhu, had the most difficult to control expressions.
Because the three people in front of them were all recruited into the hospital by them, and among them, Ding Chen was Ding Ang’s nephew.
For four years, they have seen Cao Jinsong rise step by step because of Ji You's presence, and now he has become an elder. Although they don't say it, they have actually been feeling complicated and unspeakable in their hearts for a long time.
And now that they finally saw a genius appear under their seats, the excitement they felt was naturally difficult to explain to others.
But this joy did not last long, because when Ding Ang, Ma Zhiyuan and Wu Kai asked them to comprehend the Heavenly Book and practice cultivation immediately, nothing happened.
There was no skylight, no rhyme of Tao, and everything seemed as if it had never happened.
"What's going on?"
"I... I can't sense it..."
“???”
As Zhang Jue's face froze with excitement, the three people's expressions changed, and they turned to look at Zhang Shilong.
The two of them slowly opened their eyes, and their faces suddenly turned pale.
Inside the Purple Bamboo Zen Temple, countless inner court disciples who looked up were filled with confusion and astonishment.
Their perception of the Heavenly Book was clearer than that of the people in the outer courtyard, especially since many of these people had established contact with the Heavenly Book earlier.
But before they could find the reason, the different aura that their spiritual consciousness sensed had receded like the tide.
At this time, Ji You, who was standing in the Heavenly Book Hall, waved his hand to send the Heavenly Book back. At the same time, he held his breath and restrained his spiritual thoughts, cutting off the resonance between him and the Heavenly Book.
Tsundere's guess was correct, the Night Watchman could indeed control the Heavenly Book.
Perhaps this is why I am so close to the origin of the holy weapon.
However, he didn't know whether this kind of control had caused any unusual movement, thus waking up the people outside.
Just as Yan Shuyi said, the holy weapon is the greatest power in this world. Once it changes hands, it will bring bloodshed. Now, in addition to Lingjian Mountain, there are three other families in Shengjing with insatiable greed. It is not excessive to be cautious.
However, as the sky darkened and the wind and waves subsided, Ji You, who was planning to leave, was slightly stunned.
Because he found that the connection he felt when he came into contact with the Heavenly Book itself did not disappear because he blocked the induction with the Heavenly Book.
Instead, as the roar of the wind and the skylight faded and the senses of the outside world faded, the connection became clearer.
After a moment of hesitation, Ji You's mind moved slightly.
He saw another ray of fairy light appearing and disappearing in front of the Heavenly Book Hall, spreading in front of him like a fan, but the source was no longer under the glazed dome that was sparkling with colorful skylight.
Boom boom boom——
The pure white Heavenly Book Hall is huge and spacious, like an echoing valley.
The footsteps coming from inside were reflected between the walls and the dome, gradually becoming fainter.
At this time, Ji You came to the outside of the Heavenly Book Hall and observed the surroundings for a long time. Fortunately, he did not see the scene of cultivators all over the mountain heading towards the Heavenly Book Academy, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
Being able to control the Heavenly Book is a good thing for him, because he originally wanted to turn the Heavenly Book Academy into a copy. However, if this matter were to be spread out, it might become a bad thing.
Because no matter what Tianshuyuan thinks, the three major immortal sects currently in Shengjing will definitely take action against them. They will not allow people like themselves to have the authority to sit at the same table with them.
He withdrew his gaze and then walked down the mountain, but did not notice the bamboo courtyard behind the Heavenly Book Hall.
The fence gate of the yard was originally closed, but it was now open.
You Yingqiu, who had been in seclusion, stood in front of the fence gate, watching him go down the mountain. Her eyes became deep, like the galaxy under the dark night.
Turning the valley——
In front of the main hall of the Wuliu Commercial House, a cuckoo was singing non-stop on the tall Chinese toon tree.
At that time, the sun was warm and the breeze was gentle. The cold and arrogant little master Jian sat upright with his eyes lowered, holding the tiger-head shoes in his hands and imitating the walking posture on his legs.
Her small shoes tapped on her knees as she walked, and the copper bells tied at the back made soft rings from time to time, making her eyes even more sparkling.
However, as she was walking, she heard the sound of a door opening from the front yard, so she unfolded a ray of light in her hand and quickly put the tiger-head shoes into the storage gourd. Her eyes instantly became as cold as a raging snowstorm.
At this time, Ji You had already walked out of the door.
All the way from Mount Ni to here, he had been pondering the relationship between the Night Watchmen, the Heavenly Book, the Master, and the Immortal Sect. He even added speculations about the ruins and the night, trying to connect the information he had obtained in the past with the answers he had recently received.
When piecing together cause and effect, he seemed to be able to sense the traces of a history spanning a century.
But for some reason, those traces seemed to be just superficial impressions in his perception, and he could not touch the core.
This feeling is just like watching those celebrity gossip hot searches in the previous life. Divorce, cheating, there are always a lot of topics for people to indulge in, but you subconsciously feel that those are things that are very far away from you, and you have no way of knowing the whole picture, as if there is a barrier blocking you.
At this time, Yan Shu also raised his head and watched the dog thief slowly walk towards him.
Just as she was about to speak, Xiao Jianzhu was picked up by him by the legs, and she involuntarily stretched out her arms to hug his neck.
She didn't know if it was because their relationship was public, but she found that the disciples of Xiaoxiaotian Academy liked to hug her in recent days.
After entering the house, Ji You placed it in front of the tea table.
He was planning to tell her what happened at Tianshuyuan just now, but the information in his mind was a bit messy and he didn't know where to start.
Although Yan Shuyi liked to call him a stranger, she actually knew him very well, both in terms of expression and thoughts. Seeing him thoughtful when he entered the room, she knew that he must have received more than just the promise about Danzong from Zuo Qiuyang.
"Tried?"
"Um."
"how?"
"As you expected, I did receive a response from the Heavenly Book and took control for a moment."
Upon hearing the answer, Yan Shuyi's eyelashes trembled slightly.
Having been in a high position for many years, she has developed the ability to remain calm in the face of any situation, except when Ji You came in and out, she felt a little uneasy.
But when he heard the dog thief say that he really was in control of the Heavenly Book, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the young master Jian.
It was her bold guess that the Night's Watch might be able to wield the Hallows, but this guess actually went against logic, because the Hallows should not recognize their masters at will.
But she didn't expect that this sudden guess would become a reality after trying it.
After a long silence, the Little Master Jian spoke calmly, "I didn't expect that a disciple from the small Tianshu Academy like you could be so capable. If Fang Ruoyao, Zhao Yunyue, Qiu Hanyue, He Lingxiu, Yu Shiliu, Zhang Yao, Xu Fenglian, Gao..., Yu... they knew about this, they would probably regret it to death."
Ji You was slightly stunned after hearing this: "Who are the ones behind?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a few scattered memories flashed through his mind. He remembered that the following people were all women who had sent him marriage proposals during the Tiandao Conference or when he killed Chu Xianxian and woke up.
But even he couldn't remember those names, he didn't expect Yan Shuyi to remember them so clearly.
The key point is that when they submitted the marriage proposal, this arrogant guy from his family was still in Lingjian Mountain and was not by her side at all.
For a moment, his evaluation of the young judge's vinegar spirit increased a few points.
Yan Shuyi hadn't expected that he couldn't even remember the woman who had sent him the marriage proposal. Squinting her eyes slightly, she immediately changed the subject: "Tell me about the process."
“There’s no process.”
"?"
"I've only had experience with you and Yuan Caiwei."
"I'm talking about the process of you taking control of the Heavenly Book!" Yan Shuyi's face instantly frightened, and he said with a fierce sword in his eyes.
Ji You was slightly stunned, thinking what was so good about this process.
However, since his wife wanted to hear it, he still told her the whole story in detail, how he left Zuo Qiuyang, went straight to Tianshu Peak, and then saw Tianshu and left again.
"You mean to say that you took control of the Heavenly Book without even refining it and bending its will to its will?"
“There’s no such process.”
"How could this be..."
A trace of confusion flashed across Yan Shuyi's eyes.
Because even she, the little master of Lingjian Mountain who was chosen as a master by her own initiative, took an extremely long time to become in harmony with the origin of Lingjian.
If Ji You had never come into contact with the Heavenly Book itself before, even if he was not repelled by the power of origin, he would be extremely lucky to be able to activate the Heavenly Book a little bit, let alone take control of it.
Thinking of this, Yan Shuyi stretched out his right hand and spread out his white jade fingers.
A beam of fairy light slowly bloomed from his hand, and then a stone mirror slowly emerged in the fairy light.
This is the spiritual mirror of Lingjian Mountain. Even though Ji You and Yan Shuyi have been close friends for a long time, this is the first time he has seen this mirror so closely.
Simple and vicissitudes of life, this mirror carries a rich atmosphere, majestic and surging.
As it completely appeared, Yan Shuyi waved his right hand and drew a ray of golden light from it.
This is the original power of Lingjian. She was surprised by the process of Ji You controlling the Heavenly Book, but what she heard was biased after all, and details could be easily overlooked, so she planned to see with her own eyes how the original power of the holy weapon reacted to Ji You.
Ji You knew what she meant, so he stretched out his finger towards the source.
But at this moment, before the source of origin touched his fingertips, the spiritual mirror in Yan Shuyi's hand suddenly trembled, and then suddenly moved towards Ji You.
The young master was startled for a moment, and sat up straight in an instant, and saw his son Jianzi starting to wander and circle between them, getting closer to each other.
A hint of surprise flashed across Ji You's eyes, and then he gently stretched out his hand, and saw the mirror fall into his palm.
Not only can he control the Heavenly Book, he can even control the Spirit Mirror.
The holy artifacts come from the way of heaven and have the same original power, but each holy artifact has its own will and is independent of each other and not shared.
This is also the reason why, although the thousand-year-old family has seized the original power and blocked the source of power with the help of the Heavenly Dao Sacrifice, it cannot directly seize them.
But her bastard took control of the Heavenly Book and then her Spiritual Mirror...
"Why is this happening?"
"I don't know."
Yan Shuyi murmured, revealing a doubt he had never had before.
Seeing this, Ji You couldn't help but look at her beautiful face: "Is it because..."
"?"
The young judge was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood what he was saying, so he punched him with a bang, and his cheeks suddenly turned rosy.
At that time, among the seven major immortal sects, except for the deceased head of the Tianshu Academy, the others all had many wives and concubines, and it was also unheard of that a couple could share a sacred artifact. If that were the case, the world would have been in chaos long ago.
But if this is not the reason, how can we explain that Ji You can control the sacred artifacts of two sects?
The two people looked at each other, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something in common.
"Is it Master Chen?"
"I was thinking of him, too. If it's true, as you said, that he and the Night Watchman named Cui Lang are connected by life and death, then he is the only one who can touch the sacred artifacts of the two sects."
Yan Shuyi pondered for a long time before raising his eyes. "They must have tampered with the sacred artifacts, creating a connection between them. Void Mountain must be their work. This also relates to Master Chen's plan, which ties everything together."
Ji You looked at the spiritual mirror in his hand and suddenly said, "Are you afraid that I won't return it to you?"
"Then you take charge of Lingjian Mountain for me, and I'll go enjoy the mountains and rivers."
"You wish."
Ji You cut off the connection with his mind, and gently pushed the mirror into Yan Shuyi's hands.
The young master of the mirror raised his proud eyes, then put the spirit mirror back into the skylight in his palm, and then fell into thought.
When she saw that Lingjian was controlled by Ji You, her first reaction was extreme surprise. She really didn't think that the other party might take the weapon and leave.
But now thinking about it, this possibility does exist.
She has been in charge of Lingjian Mountain for so many years, and has always been praised by the outside world for her foresight. Some people also know that she can control Lingjian Mountain step by step in a peaceful and bloodless manner, and she definitely does not rely solely on Lingjian. Logically speaking, she should not be without vigilance.
The young master narrowed his eyes slightly and found that sometimes he seemed to be really in love.
However, thinking about what he said about my tsundere ghost being in danger and then jumping into the Tiandao altar, she felt that it was not completely unreasonable for her to not be alert.
Ji You was also thinking at this time, and he was thinking about Master Chen and Cui Lang.
Putting aside what they were planning, let's just talk about the Void Mountain where the Great Dao of the Heavens flows. Is that really something they can do...
Although the light and aura emitted by the Heavenly Book were locked in the Heavenly Book Hall, the discussions among the disciples in the courtyard did not stop.
Especially the fact that someone suddenly comprehended the Heavenly Book and then failed attracted countless attention.
Master You was in seclusion, so why would the Heavenly Book be awakened?
They knew that there must be some unusual movement in the Heavenly Book, so they were filled with anxiety.
After all, the Heavenly Book is the foundation of the Heavenly Academy. If there are any unusual changes, who knows whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. Especially since so many bad things have happened recently, everyone has been on edge and feeling quite suspicious.
But soon, the anxiety subsided.
Because You Yingqiu appeared on the mountain, walked along the mountain, and visited the inner courtyard and outer courtyard.
"So the headmaster has come out of seclusion, no wonder..."
"I told you, how could there be any problem with the Heavenly Book?"
"The headmaster has been in seclusion for half a year. I wonder how far he is from reaching the Immortal Realm..."
"It must be not far away!"
In the Zizhu Zen Temple, everyone was talking about it, and their originally uneasy hearts suddenly felt relieved.
But only He Lingxiu, Shi Junhao, Chai Ze and others, looking at the new master traveling in the mountains, felt that this incident was extremely coincidental, and that the appearance of Master You was very deliberate.
People came and went from the south and the east, and the Tianshu Academy quickly returned to peace.
On the cliff of Yunwu Mountain, Zuo Qiuyang, Chai Ze, Lu Fengchuan and Fei She arrived one after another and looked at their junior sister who had become the headmaster.
"I was wondering why the Heavenly Book was moving so strangely. It turns out that Junior Sister has temporarily come out of seclusion. Has she mastered the Heavenly Secret Technique?"
"I was only a hair's breadth away from uncovering the secrets of Heaven, so I accidentally activated the Heavenly Book."
"I see."
Listening to the conversation between You Yingqiu and Chai Ze, Zuo Qiuyang couldn't help but look sideways slightly.
This was not because he did not believe what his junior sister said, but because what happened today reminded him of the summer more than five years ago.
Not long after the new students entered the school, Ji You suddenly sensed the Heavenly Book, and it was the Heavenly Book that came to them on its own initiative. They were very surprised at the time, but they met their master who happened to come out of seclusion on the mountain.
The master was also standing in the position of the junior sister at that time, and said that it was because he summoned the heavenly book that the student from the outer courtyard accidentally took advantage of the situation.
As he stared, Zuo Qiuyang noticed You Yingqiu turned around and glanced at him. The two of them looked at each other in silence, but there was a tacit understanding between them for a moment...
Night slowly falls, and stars twinkle on the top of Mount Ni.
You Yingqiu bid farewell to his four senior brothers, went up to the Heavenly Book Hall alone, and looked at the glazed dome in the hall.
Five years passed in a flash for a cultivator. This was a subjective feeling, but objectively speaking, everything was changing imperceptibly. Now she had taken over her master's identity and became the headmaster. She also suddenly understood why her master covered up for Ji You that night five years ago.
Because Ji You is not able to comprehend the Heavenly Book, but can control it.
Just imagine, if the master had not covered it up, Ji You's understanding of the wonders of the Heavenly Book would have definitely attracted investigation, and the matter might have been exposed long ago.
By then, the Taoist tradition of Tianshuyuan will collapse, and Ji You will most likely be killed.
After all, it is a holy weapon. Who wouldn't want to know the secret of how he controls the heavenly book?
So, five years later, she made the same choice as her master.
But why can Ji You control the Heavenly Book?
The statement that the Tianshu Academy's lineage has a legacy of the Night Watchmen is actually not accurate.
Because to be truly precise, the entire Tianshu Academy should be the inheritance of the Night Watch.
Because according to Master, Tianshu Academy has been a school with two saints since a thousand years ago, one is the headmaster and the other is the night watchman.
But no matter whether they are the headmaster or the night watchman, they must all be disciples of the previous generation of night watchmen, and have guarded the night with the night watchmen in their childhood, and their Taoist heart must be seen by the heavens.
Naturally, the Night's Watch can also hold the Book of Heaven.
But before leaving, Master said that Ji You was not a Night Watchman and had not received his true inheritance, so he should not be able to control the Heavenly Book.
She believed that her master would not play such boring word games with her on such matters.
Therefore, Ji You’s ability to control the Heavenly Book has nothing to do with the Night Watchmen.
Then why can he control the heavenly book?
At this moment, You Yingqiu suddenly remembered the day in Qiling when she followed her master to Ningcheng County and met Ji You, who was still an outer courtyard disciple, and asked him to use the Heavenly Book. Endless confusion flashed in her eyes.
Whoosh whoosh——
The night wind howled.
Just as You Yingqiu fell into deep thought, a roar suddenly came from the Heavenly Book Hall again, and then there was a flash of light from the sky, as if the Heavenly Book was in control again.
Seeing this scene, You Yingqiu suddenly turned around and saw a figure standing by the clear lake in the distance, with his head held high.
Just as his gaze was about to shoot, the man suddenly stood up, rushed into the darkness with a roar, and disappeared into the distance.
You Yingqiu reacted quickly and waved his hand violently, but failed to stop the person. He only intercepted a breath from the night.
That was not Ji You's aura, but it was the same as Ji You's aura, surging, powerful and youthful, but it was extremely unfamiliar to her.
