Chapter 566: Chapter 347: Supreme Treasure Acquired, Now the Gate Opens

"Fellow Daoist, keep this well; within the Celestial Capital, you may roam freely. If anyone troubles you, call my name, and I will come to aid you!"

Finally, He added:

"It only works within the Celestial Capital—outside the Celestial Capital or into the Netherworld, I cannot go nor can I assist you."

With His words concluded, Zhang Fusheng cradled the Heavenly Mirror in his arms, watching as Xuanqing Daoist took a step back into the Six Paths Prison,

the entire Six Paths Prison receded back into the void, and that majestic figure began to fade, about to vanish.

"Master Uncle—or perhaps Master Older Cousin!"

A youthful voice suddenly rang out, piercing the Celestial Vault, causing those in the testing ground, both men and gods, to turn their gaze,

and it was the True Spirit of the ancient realm, controlled by Kong Shentong, who called out.

The majestic figure paused, turned its head, gazed at Nezha’s True Spirit, and sighed softly:

"Little Nezha, your past mistakes were too grave; the Master has expelled you from Jade Void. Given this, why should you call me Master Uncle?"

"The path ahead is yours to walk; the Jade Void lineage has severed all ties with you."

Having said that, the majestic figure vanished completely, leaving Nezha’s True Spirit with an uncertain mood.

The testing ground, as well as the entire Floating Imperial City and the Celestial Capital below, fell into a deathly silence.

Countless eyes, cautiously or apprehensively, fell upon the youth in hemp robe.

The youth in hemp robe only held the Heavenly Mirror, furrowed his brow, deep in thought.

He pondered the matters of the Jade Void Palace, considered the implications of Nezha being expelled from its lineage, and questioned the Palace of Douluo—

a strand of his consciousness had already hidden within Shen Baobao’s Divine Realm, entering the Palace of Douluo.

But the issue is...

It seems to be ’stuck’.

Shen Baobao and the other two were apparently stuck at the threshold of the Palace of Douluo—or more accurately, becoming slow and sluggish,

and every second at the palace’s gate equals several hours outside. If not for his two consciousnesses calling each other and comparing notes, it would be impossible to realize...

In other words, the flow of time in the Palace of Douluo appears to be somewhat abnormal.

As thoughts turned, he finally calmed his mind.

Zhang Fusheng silently stored the Heavenly Mirror into the Divine Realm, then glanced around, speaking cheerfully:

"Why are you all still staring at me? What? Do you wish to have a serious discussion with my fellow Daoist Xuanqing?"

As his light words fell,

the gods scattered like birds and beasts, each fleeing faster than the last, even those ten notable disciples dared not linger and fled in all directions.

The vast testing ground instantly became desolate, leaving only the Cui Family members and numerous researchers.

Zhang Fusheng glanced at a familiar figure among the researchers—Zhang Xiaoxi. He naturally wouldn’t reveal himself now, merely tossing four Celestial Pills,

setting aside one to give to Ruan Yutu, speaking peacefully:

"This is a good thing; take it, it might assist you in Ascension to God."

Ruan Yutu cradled the Celestial Pill and bowed to Zhang Fusheng:

"Thank you, elder brother."

"Why thank me? It’s rightfully yours."

Zhang Fusheng shook his head, speaking with indifference, then turned his gaze to the stupefied Cui Family members:

"Why are you still standing there? Since we came to the Floating Island, no need to return today... Which family’s buildings or mansions did you fancy? Let’s go live there."

Cui Wending, Cui Wenda, and others exchanged glances, with three question marks appearing on the elder’s forehead:

"Huh???"

.........

Two hours later.

The sun had set, the round moon was rising, but not yet at midnight.

"Quickly, hurry up!"

Outside the Kong Family courtyard, Zhang Fusheng shouted loudly, and each Kong Family member wore a look as if they’d eaten dung, silently moving out of the courtyard.

This was the ancestral land of the Kong Family among the ten prestigious families, located at the core of the Floating Imperial City, sprawling in size, surrounded by tall buildings; this place had ancient-styled courtyards,

with even a small lake and pavilion in the lake within the courtyard.

"Quickly! We’re rushing to move in!"

Zhang Fusheng shouted again, and when each Kong Family member, with grim faces, moved out of the courtyard, leaving the place empty,

only then did Zhang Fusheng lead the frightened Cui Family members to move in.

"There are many rooms inside here, everyone can just find a place to stay."

He spoke cheerfully:

"Anyway, within the Celestial Capital, no one dares to trouble us; today we stay at the Kong Family, tomorrow at the Meng Family... Besides, that Little Dragon Man’s home seems nice too."

Cui Liuduo’s lips trembled, wanting to say something but ultimately staying silent,

while beside him, the elder wore a bitter smile:

"What you’re doing... will surely make the Cui Family enemies everywhere..."

"What is there to fear?" Zhang Fusheng chuckled and pointed at the Celestial Vault: "With the Six Paths Prison pressing from above, can they trouble us?"

The elder replied with a wry smile:

"But, didn’t He also say? He can’t step out of the Celestial Capital..."

Zhang Fusheng waved his hand nonchalantly:

"It doesn’t matter; after all, your Cui Family has rebellious intentions. When you secure one of the ten notable seats and gain benefits, aren’t you planning to make Qinghe Province independent?"

This statement was terrifying to the elder, almost rushing forward to cover Zhang Fusheng’s mouth—

Is such a matter something to announce openly in public?

Cui Liuduo’s complexion changed slightly, evidently unaware of the Cui Family’s rebellious plans, while also puzzled—what does ’your Cui Family’ mean?

This guy, though of a different surname, is also one of the Cui Family, no?

Though... this guy is indeed too mysterious, too strange.

After pondering, Cui Liuduo couldn’t resist softly asking:

"How exactly did you become friends with that great Commissioner? And when did you visit the Six Paths Prison?"

Zhang Fusheng only smiled warmly and said:

"Guess?"

Cui Liuduo was speechless.

After a moment of silence, several people entered the Kong Family courtyard together, Zhang Fusheng casually chose a main house, and before entering, he instructed:

"Tonight, I want to sequester myself, my soul entering the Six Paths Prison to have a tea ceremony and discuss the Dao with my fellow Daoist Xuanqing; regardless of anything, do not disturb me."

The elder gulped and immediately responded.

After nodding to Ruan Yutu, Zhang Fusheng entered the main house, closed the door, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

He patiently awaited midnight. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

The flow of time in the Palace of Douluo was extremely slow; even now, Shen Baobao was still performing the ’entering the door’ action,

and the Heavenly Mirror and Celestial Pill were temporarily not to be explored—midnight was approaching.

Zhang Fusheng waited quietly like this.

Time flowed gradually, and a minute before midnight, he quietly slipped into his own Divine Realm, entered the Eight Sceneries Palace,

and stood before the Now Gate.
