Chapter 1580 7: Treasure in Hand, Chen Xuan and the Yue Girl (12,000) Part 4
The twelve arch bridges flew back onto Jing Yan's body, and the view around them gradually faded.
They saw the outside of the palace once again.
The three set out again to search for the Historical Officer's Three Treasures.
"Mr. Zhao, I seem to have found the place." Yu Tianqing suddenly looked in a certain direction.
"What did you see?" Zhao Xing asked.
"A book, it has a black cover, with thirty-six Sun Stars on the front and seventy-two Taiyin Stars on the back."
"I can't see through what's inside the cover, there's a strong force blocking my investigation."
"However, many rays of light are coming out of it, some entering the sky, others entering the ground."
"It should be the Preaching Book, undoubtedly," Zhao Xing said, "It's the foundational system of the entire Transmission Realm, all spells, such as Book Puppets, memory modification, being unseen and unheard, chaotic divine skills, their core source all come from it."
"It's like the core cabin in the Boundary Boat, by taking it, we can reduce the danger factor of the entire Transmission Realm."
"Mr. Zhao, what level is it?" Jing Yan asked.
"It should be the Sun Daoist," Zhao Xing pondered, "If it's the Boundary of Chronicles, then it needs the support of the Original Divine Weapon level."
"Sun Daoist?!" Jing Yan's face showed greed.
"Brother Yu, can you see where the Taishi Crown is?" Zhao Xing asked.
"A crown?" Yu Tianqing said, "I've seen many crowns, various styles, not sure which one is the Taishi Crown."
"The apex is crowned with Sun Stars, surrounded by twelve celestial bodies, with light transmitting in sequence, symbolizing time and light."
"The crown is square-shaped, embroidered with the Dharma Eye on the front, and the left and right crown bands go past the ears over the shoulders, to adjust sight and hearing."
"It's the Taishi Crown of the Yueluo Ancient Country, it should also have jade ornaments adorning the sides of the crown bands, collectively called Luo. The Historian should be equipped with seven Luo."
"Specifically what the pattern is, there are many theories, probably there are these eighty-nine shapes for the Luo apparatus," Zhao Xing waved his hand and illustrated the shapes of the Luo apparatus he was familiar with.
After Yu Tianqing finished looking, he began gazing into the distance again, and in his eyes, those palaces gradually faded, leaving only crowns floating in the air.
"Mr. Zhao, according to your method of searching, ultimately there are these three palaces displaying Taishi Crowns that are identical, all at the seven Luo level."
Zhao Xing said helplessly, "The tomb owner is confusing sight and hearing, probably only one is the genuine item."
"Choosing one out of three is still not easy," Jing Yan didn't care, "We can just take three trips and I'll send the Mechanical Puppets in."
"Then go ahead and try," Zhao Xing said, not thinking it would be that easy.
Jing Yan confirmed the direction with Yu Tianqing, then dispatched three Mechanical Puppets towards the three ancient palaces.
However, as his mechanical puppets flew to the palace square, they encountered the Book Puppets blocking the way.
The bluish bricks on the square suddenly came alive, gathering from the ground into three thousand Book Puppets.
Each Book Puppet had the strength of the Small Divine Power Realm, and all possessed the function of 'Twin Book Puppets.'
Jing Yan wanted to test the depth, controlling three Mechanical Puppets in battle.
"Boom!"
One of the close combat puppets, wielding a spear, charged directly at the Book Puppet's weak spot—the navel.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang~"
Continuous thrusts, amid phantoms seemed to roar like a beast resembling a rhinoceros, carrying the frenzied impact force of the Giant Sun Origin, diverted the Book Puppet's broadsword.
"Poof~"
A glow pierced through, penetrating the Book Puppet.
"Jing Yan's Origin Dispel and advanced combat technique optimization are truly strong," Yu Tianqing praised, "Even those deployed aren't from the Twelve Wandering Gods, and their combat strength is still this robust."
Advanced combat skills are the combat instincts and techniques of the Mechanical Puppets.
Optimization is further enhancing the upper limit of the Mechanical Puppets.
Origin Dispel is also a classic secret technique among Imperial Mechanics, capable of weakening the opponent's origin power.
Yu Tianqing only knew advanced combat techniques could be optimized after meeting Jing Yan, and the exquisite combat skill of Origin Dispel was heard for the first time.
"The combat skills are good but not very useful," Zhao Xing shook his head, "All are symbiotic puppets, the more enemies are fought, the stronger they get, by the time only the last one remains, the combat strength becomes unimaginable."
"Moreover, he can't extinguish many."
Before the words finished, Jing Yan's mechanical puppet was shattered, turning into a pile of components.
Yet it had killed seven Book Puppets, which was quite decent.
"They can't be managed," Jing Yan shook his head, "Can't extinguish them simultaneously, these Book Puppets grow stronger as they fight."
"Don't look at me," Zhao Xing shook his head, "Even my Giant Sun Avatar cannot possibly handle a thousand Third Realm Book Puppets simultaneously."
The Tao Domain Realm tomb isn't that easy to open; even if the Historian's tomb isn't aimed at killing, it's not something a small divine power user can easily crack.
"Don't you know a lot?" Jing Yan asked.
"Knowing is useless if the hard conditions can't be met, what can be done."
"The method to obtain the Taishi Crown is right there, eliminating a thousand Book Puppets in one stroke will get you through."
"The problem is, even if we combine the three of us, we don't have that strength."
Zhao Xing soon judged that the three of them couldn't pass this level.
"Let's first see where the Boundary Repair Pen is, and what the breakthrough requirements are," Zhao Xing said, "Don't bother looking at the Preaching Book, without the Taishi Crown and Boundary Repair Pen, the challenge will only be stronger."
Yu Tianqing said, "The Boundary Repair Pen is in the twenty-ninth curved dome palace from the east."
"It's been moving constantly, as if writing something in the void as paper."
"With every movement, countless words emit along with the light."
Zhao Xing nodded, "Jing Yan, you're up."
His Giant Sun Avatar shouldn't be the vanguard at this moment, doing exploration work.
It's better left to Jing Yan, the reliable mechanic of the Daoist Soldier Sect.
