Chapter 1582 7: Treasure in Hand, Chen Xuan and Yue Girl
The Boundary Repair Pen trembled continuously in front of Yu Tianqing, and rows of ancient texts flashed quickly in the void.
[...Ruan Chang willingly faced death, and after being ordered to die by the foolish king.]
...
[Jun Yichen broke through three realms in one day, advancing from a Great Divine Ability Practitioner directly to the Life and Death Domain Realm, intending to slay the Evil Concubine and advise the king at the risk of death.]
[Two days later, perished in the Jidao Palace.]
...
[The Demon Queen and the foolish king issued a secret order: to kill all those in the know and force the Historian to erase all unofficial histories, revising the Chronicle.]
...
Yu Tianqing and Zhao Xing watched the words written by the Boundary Repair Pen, their faces involuntarily darkening.
"What's wrong with you?" Jing Yan asked, puzzled, "The Boundary Repair Pen has been brought out, why do you still look so gloomy?"
Yu Tianqing effortlessly obtained the Boundary Repair Pen, and any tests of memory or will seemed ineffective before him.
After obtaining it, the Boundary Repair Pen automatically formed words in the void.
Zhao Xing and Yu Tianqing understood it immediately, although the translation might not be perfect, they grasped the gist of it.
However, the information obtained was not very pleasant.
"What the Boundary Repair Pen writes will inevitably happen, so when Jun Yichen and Ruan Chang die, the city will undergo a cleansing," Zhao Xing said.
Jing Yan said, "Haven't we just acquired the Boundary Repair Pen? Can we not leave now?"
Zhao Xing replied, "Acquiring the Boundary Repair Pen only helps us understand future developments. We three are not historians, so we cannot use the Boundary Repair Pen."
"We don't know when the battle involving Jun Yichen occurred, nor when powerful spirits will come to cleanse."
"In any case, we're likely to be in great danger next, so we must act quickly."
Zhao Xing stood up, looking to the other side.
"Tianqing, now that you have the Boundary Repair Pen, although you cannot use it, you can hold it, which means you can enter and exit the Preaching Palace and Taishi Palace."
"Let's quickly retrieve those two treasures."
"Alright." Yu Tianqing didn't waste any words and started to act immediately.
The three of them quickly headed towards the other two palaces.
The Boundary Repair Pen continued to write and sketch.
Zhao Xing kept a keen eye on it.
Because it could write about upcoming events, any anomalies could be detected in advance.
"There's no time to call for help now; we can only rely on ourselves to find an exit," Zhao Xing thought to himself. "The cleansing is about to happen; even if we offend Star Fire, it's a distant solution for a near problem."
With Yu Tianqing leading the way, the three quickly entered the Taishi Palace and obtained the Taishi Crown.
Immediately afterward, Yu Tianqing put on the Taishi Crown and headed to the Preaching Palace.
"Boom~"
The removal of the Preaching Book seemed to shake the heavens and the earth.
Zhao Xing watched the Boundary Repair Pen.
Lines appeared in the void: [Ruan Chang was beheaded at the Purgatory Fire Execution Ground, a powerful Dao Origin triggered a tumult in the heavens and earth, seemingly mourning this Chief Teacher.]
[All cultivators' realms were affected as a result.]
...
"With the Preaching Book moved, these Book Puppets' combat power has also weakened," Zhao Xing observed the aimlessly drifting Book Puppets outside the palace.
"The symbiotic puppets, which were originally in the Small Divine Power Realm, have decreased by two minor realms, now only at the Late Second Realm."
"Unfortunately, I cannot use it." Yu Tianqing lamented a bit.
Of the three treasures, only the Taishi Crown could be worn by him, providing protection.
But the Boundary Repair Pen and the Preaching Book were unusable for him.
The two Daoist Soldiers were profession-exclusive; without developing a [history book], they couldn't be used, only observed.
"It's already quite something," Zhao Xing said, "Moving them at least weakened the Book Puppets' strength."
"The Taishi Crown can ensure our handling of various Divine Power Arrays in the Transmission Realm; Jing Yan and I no longer have to worry about losing our memories. Ordinary Book Puppets won't even see us."
With the Seven Luo Taishi Crown, their situation improved significantly.
To the Book Puppets, they acted as if they had fallen under a spell of 'unseen and unheard,' treating Zhao Xing and the others as nonexistent.
"Now, all we can do is wait for the Boundary Repair Pen to push the plot forward, to see where the tomb owner left the exit and the way out... let's leave the Imperial Palace first!"
Zhao Xing and the others quickly left the Imperial Palace.
And just after they left, not long after,
Two groups of people appeared inside the Imperial Palace.
"Swish~ Swish~"
Two Great Divine Power practitioners, one clad in silver battle armor, holding a fiery red sword, his skin as red as if constantly illuminated by the solar origin.
Chen Xuan, another Great Divine Power Realm Martial Artist of Star Fire.
The other was a long-haired woman in a black and white magic robe with distinctive purple and blue heterochromatic eyes.
Her codename was Yue Girl, a Great Divine Power Realm practitioner on the Soul Path.
"Yue Girl, what's the situation?"
"Bai Yang is dead." Yue Girl closed her eyes to sense.
"We attracted many Book Puppets by coming in, creating a relatively safe exploration path for him. He still died?" Chen Xuan took a sharp breath. "This place is too sinister."
"Activate the backup plan." Yue Girl didn't hesitate for even a second, "I'll lead the team, you follow my command."
"Yes." Chen Xuan nodded.
"There's a spirit riot outside the Imperial Palace, you are to lead people to not hinder the invasion by the Hanluo Army and various spirits." Yue Girl ordered: "I will go inside to search for the Historian's three treasures until I say we can withdraw."
"Understood." Chen Xuan nodded in agreement.
Two teams of roughly over forty people began to act separately.
Yue Girl went to search for the Historian's three treasures, while Chen Xuan acted as the rear support.
...
"Hiss, so many Book Puppets." Jing Yan observed the spirits above and below, swarming like tides, spread throughout the city like ants.
