374: Locking in the divine treasure, all laws trembled.

Inside the quiet room, the space was as viscous as water.

Those two ancient beast-skin maps slowly rotated in mid-air, chasing each other like two entangled primordial swimming dragons.

The patterns of mountains and rivers on their surfaces seemed to come alive at this moment, emitting wisps of mysterious dao rhyme invisible to the naked eye.

Time and space underwent slight distortion and folding around them.

Qing Xuzi took just one look and felt his Divine Soul spin with dizziness.

As if about to be sucked into that profound dao rhyme, he hurriedly looked away, his heart filled with horror.

Such power from mere resonance!

Shen Yuanmo, however, turned a blind eye to this.

He sat cross-legged, his eyes slowly closing.

In the next moment, a monstrous wave surged within his Sea of Consciousness!

[Insight into Origin] activated!

[Perfect Deduction] activated!

Buzz—!

Shen Yuanmo's Divine Sense, like an invisible net, instantly enveloped the two constantly resonating divine treasury keys.

He didn't try to comprehend the Laws of time and space contained within the keys themselves; that would be no different from searching for a needle in a haystack.

What he was about to do was crazier and more direct!

Using the two keys as spatio-temporal markers!

Using his own Divine Soul as the deduction chessboard!

Reverse-deducing the independent Divine Treasury world hidden by Dao Lord Zixiao within the endless turbulence of time and space!

Within Shen Yuanmo's Sea of Consciousness, the entire world vanished.

Replacing it was a chessboard vaster than a galaxy and hundreds of millions of times more complex than the Great Dao!

On the chessboard, every line was a Law.

Every intersection was a spatio-temporal coordinate.

Countless points of light flickered on the chessboard, each representing a possibility, a world fragment hidden in the cracks of time and space.

And those two divine treasury keys transformed into two streams of light.

On this infinite chessboard, they shuttled frantically in a mysterious and unpredictable trajectory!

What Shen Yuanmo had to do was capture their trajectory at every moment of their resonance and intersection.

Eliminating hundreds of millions of wrong coordinates to finally lock onto the only correct destination!

Outside the flying boat, Qing Xuzi stood guard at the secret room's door in horror.

He could clearly feel a fluctuation of Divine Sense coming from the quiet room that made his heart leap in fear!

That fluctuation was as vast as an abyss and as deep as a prison!

At times, he felt the space around him being stretched and twisted by an invisible force, as if it would shatter in the next second.

At other times, he felt the flow of time become sluggish, as if a single thought of his had lasted for a hundred years.

"This... what exactly is Elder Shen doing?"

Qing Xuzi's face paled; he didn't dare to interrupt and could only guess in horror.

This terrifying influence on the Laws of time and space had already exceeded the scope of the Void Return Realm!

He could only attribute this to the power of those two divine treasury keys, unable to imagine the truth.

The source of all this was simply Shen Yuanmo performing a crazy deduction!

One day.

Two days.

Five days.

Time passed quickly.

Inside the flying boat's quiet room, Shen Yuanmo's face had turned pale, his lips parched and bloodless.

In his Sea of Consciousness, the deduction on the galaxy chessboard had entered a fever pitch.

Hundreds of millions of spatio-temporal coordinates and Law lines frantically intertwined, collided, and were annihilated!

The consumption of Divine Sense reached an unprecedented and terrifying level!

A tearing pain came from the depths of his Divine Soul, as if countless invisible hands were trying to tear his consciousness into pieces!

This was a sign that the Heaven-Defying Comprehension talent was operating at its limit!

Even with his Divine Sense strength comparable to the Middle Stage Void Return Realm, he felt bouts of dizziness, and his Divine Soul Origin vibrated violently.

But he still gritted his teeth, his eyes tightly shut.

He threw every last bit of his mind into the deduction trajectory that was about to converge!

Still a bit more!

Just a little bit left!

The seventh day, night.

Just as Shen Yuanmo felt his Divine Soul was about to reach its limit and shatter!

Buzz—!!!

On the chessboard of the Sea of Consciousness, the two streams of light that had been entangled for seven days and seven nights finally had their trajectories perfectly overlap after endless shuttling and collisions!

Like a sharp sword, they instantly pierced through layers of mist, pointing to a spatio-temporal coordinate deep within the chessboard burning with endless purple thunder!

Found it!

Deduction, success!

In the quiet room, Shen Yuanmo suddenly opened his eyes!

"Phew—"

A breath of turbid air that had been pent up for seven days and seven nights was exhaled long and hard from his mouth.

Eerily, this turbid air did not dissipate; instead, it contained wisps of shattered spatio-temporal dao rhyme.

It actually left a tiny black spatial crack in the flying boat's sturdy secret room!

Shen Yuanmo's eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was weary to the extreme.

But deep within that weariness burned a light of excitement and brilliance that was hot to the extreme!

It's done!

Zixiao Divine Treasury!

It was located at the border of the Eastern Region and Southern Separation, deep within a forbidden spatio-temporal storm zone called the God Burying Thunder Sea!

That was a forbidden zone for life, a desperate land that even Hedao Realm great powers didn't dare to set foot in easily!

Furthermore, through the deduction of the keys' resonance cycle, Shen Yuanmo also calculated a crucial piece of information.

One month later!

The entrance to the Divine Treasury would have an extremely brief, once-in-ten-thousand-years stable period!

If they missed this point in time, who knew how many years it would take before they could enter again!

...A few days later, the Nine Heavens Star Shuttle sliced through the sky and landed smoothly on the main peak of the Wanfa Immortal Sect.

Shen Yuanmo didn't stay for a moment, not even paying attention to the extremely reverent gazes of the surrounding Disciples, and walked straight toward the Sect's main hall.

Qing Xuzi followed closely behind; he could feel that after Elder Shen had been in seclusion for seven days.

Although the aura on his body was somewhat weak, that invisible majesty was even more unfathomable than before.

The Sect's Main Hall.

Having received the news, Sect Master Myriad Laws Daoist's figure had already appeared on the main seat of the hall via a projection from a huge dharma mirror.

He was a lean-faced middle-aged Daoist wearing a Wanfa Daoist robe.

His aura was as deep as the sea; he was indeed a top great power of the Late Void Returning Stage.

"Elder Shen, you've worked hard on this trip." Myriad Laws Daoist saw Shen Yuanmo and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

News of that earth-shattering battle outside Tianfeng City had long since been transmitted back to the Sect through various channels.

The entire upper echelon of the Wanfa Immortal Sect had been plunged into immense shock and wild joy because of it.

However, the words Shen Yuanmo spoke next caused the smile on the face of this Late Void Returning Stage Sect Master to instantly freeze.

"Sect Master."

Shen Yuanmo's tone was calm and direct.

"I have found the location of the Zixiao Divine Treasury; the treasury will open in one month."

"I need the Sect to provide a top-tier flying boat capable of resisting spatio-temporal storms, as well as all information regarding the God Burying Thunder Sea, the more detailed the better."

As his voice fell.

The entire magnificent hall fell into a dead silence.

Myriad Laws Daoist, this Void Returning Great Expert who had ruled the Wanfa Immortal Sect for thousands of years.

Qing Xuzi, this Void Return Elder who had lived for over ten thousand years.

Both of them, at this moment, were completely speechless!

Their eyes widened, as if they were Mortals who had seen a ghost, staring fixedly at Shen Yuanmo, their minds completely blank!

Wh... What!

Found it?

Just with those two keys, after seven days of seclusion, he deduced the location of the Divine Treasury!

This... how is this possible?!

This completely exceeded the scope of their understanding!

In the common knowledge of the cultivation world, the role of a divine treasury key is that of a key!

The holder can only passively wait for the Divine Treasury to open, and the key will guide the way on its own!

From ancient times to the present, it has never been heard of someone being able to use a key to actively deduce the spatio-temporal coordinates of a Divine Treasury!

After a brief moment of daze, Myriad Laws Daoist took a sharp breath.

He instantly realized the incalculable and terrifying value behind this matter!

This meant they would have absolute initiative!

They could lay out their plans in advance and seize the Opportunity while everyone else was still in the dark!

"No problem!"

Myriad Laws Daoist almost roared it out, his projected figure fluctuating violently due to excitement.

"The void crossing divine boat, the one with the strongest defense and the fastest speed in the Sect's treasury, is at Elder Shen's disposal! I will immediately have someone send all ancient records and sea charts regarding the God Burying Thunder Sea to your Immortal Cave!"

Meanwhile.

In the deepest part of the Wanfa Immortal Sect, within that Secret Realm surrounded by starlight.

The Grand Elder of the Hedao Realm, Daoist Xinghe, who was in seclusion, was once again disturbed.

When Myriad Laws Daoist conveyed Shen Yuanmo's request and the sentence "I have found the location of the Zixiao Divine Treasury" to him exactly as it was.

This old monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years fell into a long silence.

The starlight in the Secret Realm seemed to stagnate because of his mood.

After a long time.

An old voice containing supreme majesty resounded in Myriad Laws Daoist's mind.

"Use the power of the entire Sect to assist him!"

"This is an Opportunity for our Wanfa Immortal Sect that hasn't appeared in ten thousand years!"

At this moment, Shen Yuanmo's status in the Wanfa Immortal Sect once again underwent a world-shaking change.

If defeating Jian Wuya before had made him a top Guest Elder relied upon and courted by the Sect.

Then now, with this mysterious and unfathomable deduction ability.

He had truly become a giant-level figure capable of influencing the future direction of the entire Sect!

And just as the Wanfa Immortal Sect was putting all its effort into preparing for the upcoming Divine Treasury trip.

A piece of news completely ignited the entire Eastern Region's cultivation world.

The five Great Void Return experts of the Taiyi Sword Sect deployed at Tianfeng City, laying down the Taiyi Immortal Slaying Sword Formation that could slay those at the Hedao Realm, to surround and kill the new Guest Elder of the Wanfa Immortal Sect, Shen Yuanmo.

The formation was broken, and people were injured!

Sect Master Jian Wuya's Dao Heart was damaged, he was publicly called out, and he returned in a wretched state!

The entire Eastern Region was completely silenced!
