The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 573 Chai Xun
The "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar" was obtained by Zhao Chen from Chai Danping, a direct descendant of the Chai family. After being identified by the "collector" ability he had experienced in advance, it was confirmed to be the natal magic weapon of "Xian De Zhenren" Chai Xun...

But since knowing that Chai Xun was promoted to the "Shengxuan" True Lord with the help of the "All Stars Association", Zhao Chen has some new guesses about the result of this "identification":

Generally speaking, the master's magic weapon will be upgraded with the master's realm. Since the "Xian De Qin Tian Li" is still at the magic weapon level, it means that when it separated from Chai Xun and existed independently, the other party was still only at the "Dong Xuan" realm.

Well... the Chai family's martial arts rely heavily on blood inheritance. Perhaps at the moment of promotion to "Shengxuan", the real Chai Xun no longer existed. It is hard to say what the person after the promotion is specifically like, but judging from the fact that he still has his heart set on Lord Moyun, it is likely that Chai Xun's spirit is still dominant.

While all kinds of thoughts were running through his mind, Zhao Chen looked around and found himself as if in a world of "oil painting", with mottled oil paint all around and only stars shining in the distance.

The "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar" flying in the air was emitting starlight at this moment, creating a path leading to the depths of the scroll among the mottled colors.

"'Xian De Qin Tian Calendar' is the real 'token' to open Chai Xun's ruins. We shouldn't encounter too much danger if we follow it..." Zhao Chen hesitated for only a moment before deciding to follow this magic weapon to see what the situation was.

Anyway, he has "Xingcha" as a backup, and the person who controls his destiny behind the scenes will not let him die easily.

After all, once he dies, all his previous investment will be wasted.

I don’t know how long I walked, maybe just a moment, maybe many years. Anyway, there is no concept of “time” in this abstract dream... In short, when Zhao Chen felt that he should have reached the end, a huge canvas appeared on the road paved by the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar".

A palace is outlined on the canvas with simple lines, and the palace gate is painted very realistically, as if it can really be pushed open.

"I have seen this palace painting before in the 'Bagua Mingguang Mirror'... It is the fourth of five paintings. It seems that I am on the 'right' path."

Seeing this, Zhao Chen made up his mind, and without any hesitation, he pushed the door on the canvas with his hand.

The door then slowly opened, but it was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen.

After Zhao Chen observed with his "Dongxu Eyes" for a few seconds, he saw that the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar" had disappeared into the darkness, so he immediately stepped forward and followed and entered it.

The next moment, the scene around him changed rapidly, and a magnificent palace hall appeared before his eyes.

Using his spiritual sense to survey the surrounding scene, Zhao Chen's first feeling was that it looked familiar. After thinking about it for a moment, he remembered where the source of the familiarity came from.

"This place is very similar to the main hall of the imperial palace in Luoyue City... I have restarted in that 'strange domain' countless times, and I will never make a mistake.

"Well, I remember that after the city was polluted, it was Master Moyun who destroyed it himself. Why did Chai Xun arrange it like this?"

Zhao Chen frowned slightly, feeling that the secret of Luoyue City might be more complicated than he had imagined.

"That's right... Luoyue City is related to the layout of the Taoist master of Danding Xianzong, Taihe Daojun. How could it be simple? I still don't know why Taihe Daojun drove the Taihe Ding to attack the Blood Moon that night.

"In addition, the Bodhisattva behind Fei Meng also issued me an unlimited time task, asking me to find the 'key' that can lead to Luoyue City from more than 8,000 years ago.

“It is unknown where the ‘key’ is now, but according to the dream of the old man surnamed Chai that Lin Feng and Chu Yunmo saw, the ‘door’ leading to ‘Historical-Luoyue City’ is most likely in this relic.

"This is definitely not a coincidence. It must be a targeted arrangement by Chai Xun and Master Moyun."

As his thoughts turned, Zhao Chen saw the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar" "float" to the sky above the throne at the end of the palace by itself, and then "stopped".

Wow…

The pages of the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar" quickly turned, and finally a purple page was revealed, pointing at the throne.

Then, a ray of light was cast from the pages of the book and gathered into a man who looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He was wearing a crimson purple robe, and he looked heroic, handsome and casual.

This person sat on the throne, looking down at Zhao Chen standing in the hall, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile:
"You are the descendant of 'Moyun', and your previous experiences have a great causal connection with her. Your fate has long been entangled with her. You also hold my 'Xian De Qin Tian Calendar', so you are the right person... Huh?"

As he was talking, he suddenly let out a light "Huh", and looked at Zhao Chen carefully for a few more times, and said in surprise: "Your fate is connected with the 'Promised Ship'...'Candidate'?

"Well, although the consequences of being entangled with the fate of the 'Candidate' are unpredictable, 'Moyun' has no better choice."

Zhao Chen was somewhat confused by his monologue, but he still "politely" waited for him to finish talking before interrupting, "Senior... is it 'Xian De Zhenjun' in person?"

Projected out from the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar" and muttered what he had just said, Zhao Chen was 70% to 80% sure that this person was Chai Xun.

The man on the throne was slightly startled by Zhao Chen's question, and then he said in a kind tone: "You can call me 'Xian De Zhenren' or 'Zi Wei Zhenjun', but the name 'Xian De Zhenjun' has never existed."

As expected... Generally speaking, a Taoist name will not change after being promoted from "Dongxuan" to "Shengxuan", unless he is no longer pure...

Besides, "Ziwei"? This is the title of the Grand Master of All Things, the Emperor of All Golden Immortals, who is supported by all the stars. Can you, a "Shengxuan" who has achieved it with so much difficulty, bear it? Aren't you afraid of backlash? Those evil people in the "All Stars Society" gave you this title, and I'm afraid they didn't have good intentions!

Oh, you've been killed by the backlash? That's fine.

Zhao Chen complained in his heart, but on the surface he bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to 'Ziwei Zhenjun'. I wonder what you meant by what you just said?"

He paused, then said, "Oh, by the way, a divine thought from the 'Happy Bodhisattva' used you in the dream to enter here... Her purpose is unknown, so please take precautions."

In fact, Zhao Chen had some guesses about what Chai Xun said, but since the other party was so easy to talk to, he simply asked what was going on.

Of course, it is also appropriate to give some praise to the "Happy Bodhisattva" as well.

"Haha..." Chai Xun laughed and said playfully, "In fact, I am just an illusion left in the dream.

"The real me must have perished in that place a long time ago."

Then he turned his head, as if he was looking at something from a distance, and said in a sarcastic tone, "Since the 'Lian Du Bodhisattva' took advantage of the situation, he will never be able to get here." Are you also a phantom in the dream? Didn't you come out of the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar"? Zhao Chen knew that Chai Xun's original body had fallen, so he only thought that the person in front of him was a split spirit or thought that the other party had arranged in advance in the "Xian De Qin Tian Calendar".

As if he had seen through Zhao Chen's thoughts, Chai Xun patiently explained, "If I really had my divine consciousness or my spiritual power remaining, it wouldn't be called death, because it would be very easy to 'come back to life' through them...

"What you see here is just my magical power, the remnant of my strength.

“You should know that the fundamental magical power of my Chai family, ‘The Stars Turn’, can record and store the magical powers encountered, and ‘return’ them back at the right time… and I here, in essence, am actually a ‘magic power’, and I just returned it with the ‘Stars Turn’ contained in the ‘Xian De Qin Tian Calendar’.

"Well, your act of bringing the 'Xian De Qin Tian Calendar' into this place is what triggers the condition for 'return'."

So that’s how it is…so the “Xian De Qin Tian Calendar” is the real “token” of this relic!
However, as Zhao Chen suddenly understood, he had a new question: "What about you who married the mind of 'Lian Du Bodhisattva'...?"

"That is also a magical power that contains part of my power and memory, but it was preserved by the horn of the 'Five-Power God'. However, when I recorded this magical power, I was already the 'True Lord Ziwei'. I was more obsessed with Mo Yun, and my possessiveness towards her became more paranoid. This is why the 'Lian Du Bodhisattva' took advantage of it... Heh!"

Chai Xun sneered at this point and continued, "But no matter who I was then or who I am now, I can never make 'Lian Du Bodhisattva' fulfill his wish!"

Hearing this, Zhao Chen's previous guess seemed to be confirmed, and he hurriedly asked, "Could it be that 'Lian Du Bodhisattva' wants the body of 'Mo Yun Zhenjun'?"

When he looked into the eyes of "Mu Zirong", he had seen the scene where Chai Xun witnessed the fall of Master Mo Yun from the sky. Although Master Mo Yun had no breath at that time, his body was still intact.

"Yes, she got so many people, including you, the descendant of Mo Yun, to 'witness' her, not just to give me a beautiful dream. Her biggest goal is naturally to 'turn the false into the true' and try to eliminate the calamity when occupying Mo Yun's body.

"For the Huanxi lineage, this is a fortune second only to the remains of the great bodhisattvas.

"Unfortunately, although the palace she was taken to had most of my legacy, it did not have the real Mo Yun." After Chai Xun confirmed Zhao Chen's guess, he stretched out his hand and a scroll flew from the shelf in the corner of the palace and fell into his hand.

The scroll then unfolded, and Zhao Chen's spiritual sense easily recognized that the scene shown in the painting was Luoyue City.

This is the "gate" leading to Luoyue City eight thousand years ago!
"It seems you recognized it. This is the 'door' that corresponds to 'history'.

"After Mo Yun was defeated by that person, he actually still had a glimmer of hope, but I couldn't grasp it, and I didn't have the time to grasp it...

"Fortunately, Mo Yun had prepared a backup plan thousands of years ago, so I forcibly killed a 'candidate' who used me as a human calamity... well, that is, the 'Five-way God', and used his special relationship with the 'Ship of Promise' to send Mo Yun's body into the 'Falling Moon City' in the mist of history.

“Reliable history is set and cannot be changed, but before the ‘fog of history’ dissipates, everything is possible!
"That is where Mo Yun's glimmer of hope lies...

"What's more, when Mo Yun destroyed Luoyue City, he seemed to have arranged some means in advance."

As Chai Xun told Zhao Chen about his and Lord Moyun's plan, Zhao Chen's heart was also in turmoil.

Was the body of "Moyun Zhenjun" sent into the "historical fog" of Luoyue City? Or was it the murdered "Wutong Shen" who was used?
"True Lord Moyun" really is a man who thinks ten steps ahead before he takes one step. He is so calculating!
Could it be that the previous dispute between Taihe Daojun and "Blood Moon" was also related to this?

Zhao Chen pondered for a few seconds and simply asked directly.

But Chai Xun shook his head and said, "I am just a magical power. I cannot and should not carry the knowledge about the back-up plan of the Demon Cloud...

“So I don’t know.”

Don't know? If you don't know this, you still expect me to enter "history" and help you revive Mo Yun?

Although Chai Xun did not say it explicitly, Zhao Chen had roughly guessed his purpose.

"Haha..." Chai Xun laughed heartily again, "You look just like Mo Yun back then, with so many thoughts in your mind. But you guessed one thing wrong."

"What?" Zhao Chen frowned again.

"That is, I don't intend to entrust you with anything, but just give the right thing to the right person at the right time.

"As for the rest, it all depends on whether Mo Yun can take this opportunity to survive the catastrophe..."

"Of course, you need to note that this is only my opinion at this moment. If it were me who was more obsessed then, it would be hard to say."

At this point, he paused for a few seconds, and while throwing the painting in his hand to Zhao Chen, he stopped talking about this topic and said, "However, since your actions are beneficial to Mo Yun, I will still pay you some rewards."

Zhao Chen subconsciously took the painting, or the "door", knowing in his heart that he really could not get around this matter. After all, the Bodhisattva's mission was there. Even if it was said to be "unlimited time", could he really never do it?
What's more, he had received so many benefits from "True Lord Moyun", and even incorporated her cave and Taoist tradition... He would have to pay for this karma sooner or later!

In fact, if Lord Moyun could really be resurrected, Zhao Chen would actually feel relieved and at ease.

"Let's put the reward aside for now. Do you know where the key to this 'door' is?" Zhao Chen asked after putting away the picture.

"That 'key'... after sending the magic cloud into history and sealing this relic, I threw the key away on purpose, and now I don't know where it landed... But with the map, and with the guidance of fate, you should be able to find it in a year or two." Chai Xun replied, "I was in a very bad state at the time, and I didn't know when I might be controlled by the evil spirits of the 'Star Society'. Naturally, I would not put everything that could lead to that history in one place... It would be best if even I didn't know where it was."

I see... Speaking of which, the reason you were hunted by the "Star Society" was because you stole their "credentials" for boarding the ship...

By the way, where is the complete “All Things in the Universe” that serves as the “certificate”?
Since he thought of that thing, Zhao Chen asked this question.

"Of course I sent it into 'History'... Otherwise, no matter how well this relic of the Heart Realm was hidden, it would have been found by the 'All Stars Society' long ago!" Chai Xun answered casually.

"Do you understand the complete 'Senluo Wanxiang'?"
