Chapter 1281: Chapter 483: Sky Dome White Jade City_2

"Alright then..."

Zhou Xuan took out his pocket watch and checked the time. It was already 2:56 AM.

"Wait for another four minutes to make it a round number."

Zhou Xuan didn’t particularly believe in auspicious times, but his mild compulsion required him to start major tasks on the hour.

Time ticked away,

And four minutes passed in an instant.

When the hands pointed to the hour, Zhou Xuan lifted his palm and summoned the "Will Heavenly Book."

After the reconstruction of Mingjiang Prefecture today, the remaining Human Desire Power was stored within this Heavenly Book.

The more Wish Power contained in the book, the whiter it became.

At that moment, the Heavenly Book was like a lump of white cream, so richly white that it almost seemed to be flowing.

Zhou Xuan cast a glance at Sister Cui.

Sister Cui stood in the mountain hollow, raised her arms, and her body transformed into a four-tailed giant fox, with countless golden scriptures appearing on her snow-white fur.

Those scriptures, once gilded, looked like golden fireflies ready to flutter away.

And within Xie Family’s Cave, the earth started to break, showing irregular ravines,

A pill furnace more magnificent than the mountain itself rose from the ground under Sister Cui’s Fourth Realm Earth Law,

Such grandeur left Little Brain forgetting about the "meals" in the Secret Realm. It continuously exclaimed, "Beautiful, so beautiful, it would be a shame not to portray this stunning scene."

It darted through the sand and stones, just to capture the most magnificent view.

From a distance, Yun Ziliang watched, his mouth shaped into an "O," unable to close for a long time.

As a Dragon Seeking Heavenly Master, he spent his days and nights leveraging mountain and earth forces. However, no matter how skilled he was at borrowing, it was still just borrowing.

Sister Cui’s Earth Law, however, was commanding—commanding the mountains and the earth to obey her will.

He couldn’t help but wonder, if Earth Law can command myriad mountains, why can’t a Dragon Seeking Heavenly Master command instead of borrowing?

"Why can’t I command! I should be able to command, the world’s Dragon Force, I can command, the mountains and the earth shall all listen to my command."

Yun Ziliang’s Dragon Seeking Sensing Sect cultivates an innate domineering spirit.

While he was having this spiritual insight, Li Changxun, standing beside him, placed one hand on Yun Ziliang’s heavenly spirit cover and the other on his jaw. Then, with a forceful twist of both hands, he made Lao Yun forcibly shut his mouth.

"Oh my, my old teeth." Yun Ziliang winced in pain, glaring at Li Changxun: "What are you doing?"

"Master Ancestor, the wind is strong here, with flying sand and stones. I was afraid you’d gulp down sand with your mouth open so wide."

"..." Yun Ziliang.

Zhou Xuan couldn’t help but laugh and said to Li Changxun, "Li Shanzu, although your actions were rough, there was a hint of filial piety, but your knock nearly took away Lao Yun’s opportunity for advancement."

"..." Yun Ziliang was speechless a second time.

His two moments of speechlessness, however, were for two different reasons.

Towards Li Changxun, Yun Ziliang always felt this grand-disciple acted without thinking—filial but somewhat... somewhat ludicrous.

Towards Zhou Xuan, Yun Ziliang was always surprised by Zhou Xuan’s insight. He felt Zhou’s bright eyes were always wandering, observing every move in this world.

Even if a needle were to fall from the sky, the Mr. of Mingjiang Prefecture would notice it sharply and clearly.

"Xuanzi, do you know I had an epiphany watching Sister Cui’s flying sand and stones?"

Yun Ziliang asked.

"I not only know, but I also know what you’re realizing."

Zhou Xuan walked with his hands behind his back, as relaxed as a retired cadre strolling through the park.

Yun Ziliang hurriedly asked, "Then tell me, what am I realizing?"

"Lao Yun, you must be wondering why a Dragon Seeking Heavenly Master can only borrow mountains and waters, and why they can’t command like Sister Cui does."

Zhou Xuan hit the nail on the head, making Yun Ziliang’s scalp tingle. He paused and said, "Xuanzi, oh Xuanzi, are you a demon? Do you know everything I think?" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Lao Yun, don’t forget, I’m also from the Dragon Seeking Sensing Sect, and I’ve learned all the nine layers of techniques of this Tangkou."

Zhou Xuan said, "The thought you just had, I also have, but I feel it’s somewhat of a wrong path, so I forcibly interrupted my thoughts."

"This I don’t understand. Commanding the mountains and waters, how can that be a wrong path for us Dragon Seeking Heavenly Masters?"

Yun Ziliang immediately asked.

Li Changxun echoed, like performing a double act, "Exactly, exactly, why is it that only the Law can command, but not a Dragon Seeking Heavenly Master? How is that fair?"

The questioning from Yun and Li was less of a challenge, more of a discussion, airing their incomprehension and waiting for Zhou Xuan’s explanation.

Zhou Xuan turned to Yun Ziliang: "Lao Yun, if I’m not mistaken, you want to use your domineering spirit to command the mountains and waters."

"Exactly."

Yun Ziliang said, "Our Dragon Seeking Sensing Sect disciples are inherently domineering. We use this to suppress Dragon Force, and with it, forcibly borrow mountain, earth, and water forces."

"The problem lies in this domineering approach, and in my opinion, this domineering line is indeed a wrong path."

Zhou Xuan said, "I didn’t realize this before, but after listening to Bai Lu and the Engineer’s explanations, I learned that the mountains and rivers of Jing Country are inherently spiritual, not just dead terrain, akin to people with innate spirituality. Lao Yun... you... hey, why are you all gathering around?"
