Chapter 233: Words are the law, and the mouth is the law
Back to the time when Xunzi decided to leave with the Master, Gongsun Ce decided to keep some cards for Xunzi, so he rushed back to Xianyang to start refining a one-time special alchemical creation.
Sitting in the secret room, Gongsun Ce just found it very interesting. It was quite rare for a disciple to prepare a trump card for his master.
In his right hand, he tightly grasped a Basilisk snake bone. The snake bone was as white as jade, but it was one of the hardest materials in the world.
Gongsun Ce took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and felt the coolness emanating from the snake bones.
Suddenly, a raging fire burned on his right hand. The flame was orange-red and emitted a hot breath.
Gongsun Ce held the snake bone tightly, placed it in the flame and began to calcine it.
The flame seemed to have its own spirit, jumping and spinning around the snake bones, constantly refining the impurities in the snake bones.
A solemn look appeared on Gongsun Ce's face. He knew that this step was crucial. If he failed, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
As the flames refined it, the snake bones gradually became crystal clear and emitted a faint light.
Upon seeing this, Gongsun Ce drew a circle in the air with his left hand, and then a huge black sun slowly emerged.
The black sun seemed to have life, emitting a powerful suction force that distorted the surrounding air.
Gongsun Ce carefully controlled the black sun and slowly pushed it towards the snake bone.
The moment the black sun came into contact with the snake bone, a powerful energy burst out, making the surrounding air buzz.
Gongsun Ce gritted his teeth and tried his best to control the energy.
Gradually, the black sun began to condense and turned into a thin beam of light that penetrated into the snake bones.
Under the tempering of the snake bone flame, it gradually turned into a jade bead, with a miniature black sun faintly visible inside the jade bead.
Gongsun Ce looked at the jade beads in front of him, his heart full of anticipation.
However, just when he thought he had succeeded in refining it, the snake bone suddenly cracked, and a crack quickly spread.
Gongsun Ce's face changed, and he thought to himself that something was wrong. He quickly drew a circle and used the Reverse Heavenly Origin to summon the Eye of the Void, swallowing the jade bead that was about to break and the black sun power inside it.
Gongsun Ce’s brows were furrowed.
He understood that his previous attempt had failed, as the jade beads made solely from the bones of the Basilisk snake could not fully contain the power of the Black Sun.
He pondered for a moment and decided to find a special medium to contain this power.
At this moment, he thought of his own blood. The power of the Word Spirit originally relied on dragon blood, so his blood might be able to become a medium to contain the power of the Black Sun.
Gongsun Ce took out another Basilisk snake bone and began to refine it again.
This time, he added a drop of his own blood during the refining process.
Under the refinement of the flames, the blood gradually merged with the snake bones, emitting an even more dazzling light.
Gongsun Ce prayed secretly in his heart, hoping that this time he would succeed.
However, the moment the jade bead took shape, it cracked again.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Gongsun Ce's eyes, but he did not give up.
He realized that it might be because his blood was not pure enough.
So he cut his wrist and took out a ball of blood.
Under the candlelight, the blood appeared a crystal clear red, like a ruby.
Gongsun Ce placed the blood in his palm and began to burn and refine it.
As the flame refined it, the blood gradually became extremely pure, and finally turned into three drops of blood as pure as jade.
Gongsun Ce carefully sealed the three drops of blood into three basilisk snake bones respectively.
This time, when Gongsun Ce sealed the black sun into the snake bone, at the moment the jade bead took shape, it did not crack again, but emitted a soft light.
Gongsun Ce looked at the jade bead in his hand, his heart filled with joy. He knew that he had finally succeeded.
He gently stroked the jade bead, feeling the miniature black sun looming in it.
The black sun seemed to have life, jumping and spinning at his fingertips, emitting powerful energy.
The next moment, Gongsun Ce once again drew a circle with one hand to summon a black sun. This black sun slowly entered the newly refined jade bead and merged with the already stable miniature black sun in the jade bead.
This created a double black sun, fulfilling Gongsun Ce's idea. After the double black suns merged, the jade bead showed no signs of breaking.
Gongsun Ce realized that with the refined dragon blood as a base, the jade beads had a high limit on the power of the spirit words.
Therefore, for the second jade bead, Gongsun Ce chose to seal in the whirlwind created by the quadruple Word Spirit, the Eye of the Wind King. At the same time, the three unique powers of wind, cloud, rain and indeterminacy were also sealed in it.
Once the second jade bead is activated, the first thing that happens is the four pupils of the Wind King, followed by the three ultimate powers of wind, cloud, rain and uncertainty, which are created with the power of the pupils of the Wind King as the core.
As for the third jade bead, Gongsun Ce pondered for a moment and activated the third blood burst.
With the blessing of the third blood burst, Gongsun Ce successfully added the power of Word Spirit·Hypnosis and Word Spirit·Black Sun into the flame tornado formed by Word Spirit·Fire and Word Spirit·Eye of the Wind King.
Gongsun Ce sincerely hoped that Xunzi would not need these things. After all, once these things were used, it would mean that Xunzi was in danger.
Therefore, when Gongsun Ce felt that Xunzi only used one jade bead, he felt relieved.
In the world of Ever Night, Xunzi looked at Haotian who had calmed down temporarily and was stunned. This was not like what should happen under the heaven's rule.
The next moment, the Master's clone grabbed Xunzi's arm and took Xunzi around the human world for several circles.
Just after the Master and Xunzi left, two indifferent eyes appeared in the sky again, but they closed again after finding no trace of Xunzi.
At this point, the world of Haotian was shaken, because Haotian was cowardly for the first time. He did not continue to send down divine punishment to kill Xunzi, nor did he continue to pursue Xunzi.
Even when facing the attack of the black sun left by Gongsun Ce, Haotian would choose to temporarily avoid the attack. This was the first time that Haotian's faith could withstand the impact.
At the same time, Jiu Tian Xuan Nu, whose power was being taken away by Hao Tian Tian Nu, suddenly reacted.
"Is this the aura of martial arts reaching the state of unity between man and nature? How is it possible?"
The disbelief of Lady Jiu Tian made Hao Tian confirm Xun Zi's identity, but also made Hao Tian a little furious.
In her opinion, this was the Master inviting a wolf into the house. Once other people found Chang Ye's world, it would undoubtedly be shaky.
However, Haotian never expected that it was actually the world that was playing the peach picking activity at the beginning that allowed the Master to leave the Ever Night world and go to the outside world.
At this moment in the Qin world, Gongsun Ce is teaching Bei Mingzi and Xiao Meng how to enter the Jiang Ye world.
Just as Gongsun Ce expected, Bei Mingzi was very suitable for this method of practice.
Compared to the gradual progress of martial arts training, the training methods in the Ever Night world can actually be realized in one day, and then the realm will rise steadily.
The Master's eldest disciple Li Manman was enlightened at the age of thirteen and reached the state of no doubt at the age of thirty. However, he was able to enter Dongxuan in three months. On the evening of the day he entered Dongxuan, he observed the dusk clouds and entered the state of knowing destiny.
Then three days later he broke through to the sixth realm of the Wuju realm. This could be described as a gradual accumulation of experience, or it could be a sudden enlightenment.
Telekinesis is something that requires a very high state of mind, but Bei Mingzi's state of mind is already very high, so it is not difficult for him to practice it.
It's just that Bei Mingzi has been practicing in a conventional way for a long time, and his practice of the methods of the Ever Night world is also progressing steadily. His progress in practice is very slow, and he remains in the initial stage.
Even Xiao Meng has entered the realm of perception, but Xiao Meng can forget about breaking through in a short period of time.
Gongsun Ce observed Bei Mingzi's aura and gained a new understanding of the realm of initial acquaintance.
There are a total of seventeen acupoints in Qihai Snow Mountain. The initial level of awareness is to sense the Yuan force of heaven and earth, and use the power of thought to guide the Yuan force to flow through the acupoints.
In other words, the initial stage of understanding is not only about the power of thoughts and the elemental force of heaven and earth, but more importantly, it is about understanding oneself.
By analogy, the second level of perception is to clearly perceive the Yuanli and begin to try to use the Yuanli.
The third realm of no doubt means having a full understanding of oneself, one’s energy and one’s mental power.
Only those who have reached the fourth realm, Dongxuan, have truly entered the ranks of practitioners and can begin to use their telekinesis to mobilize their energy and unleash incredible power.
At the same time, if you want to break through this realm, you must find your natal object and the way forward.
Sword Master, Talisman Master and Mind Master are the three major professions for job transfer in the Dongxuan Realm.
A swordsman can control a flying sword, so the swordsman’s natal object is the sword.
The talisman master's natal object is the talisman. By drawing the first talisman, one can enter the Dongxuan realm. By drawing a divine talisman as his natal talisman, one can break through the fifth realm, the Zhiming realm, and be called a divine talisman master.
It is difficult to say what the master's natal object is. As long as anything in the world is in harmony with itself, it can be used as the master's natal object.
The fifth realm is knowing destiny, which is the peak that ordinary people can reach. The peak of the realm of knowing destiny is equivalent to the late stage of grandmaster.
The sixth realm of all kinds of things is half a step towards the unity of man and nature.
It seems that the first three realms should not exist at all, but existence is reasonable, so these three realms must be mysterious.
It’s just that Gongsun Ce has already reached the realm of no distance, so he can only further improve his perception by observing Bei Mingzi.
Two months later, the end of the year was approaching, and Bei Mingzi was still in the initial acquaintance realm. He was in no hurry to break through, and Gongsun Ce could also watch without any hurry.
However, thanks to Bei Mingzi, Gongsun Ce is about to reach the extraordinary realm.
Gongsun Ce chose the profession of talisman master, and his natal talisman was naturally a magical talisman made of dragon characters - the word "dragon".
The requirement of the talisman master is to draw the talisman quickly, and the vital energy must flow quickly along the strokes of the talisman to form a talisman.
Therefore, most of the talismans in the Evernight world have simple strokes.
For example, Yan Se's character "井" and Ning Que's later inspirational character "人" have simple strokes and are completed in one stroke. They can quickly condense vital energy and are extremely powerful.
Moreover, different understandings of words will also lead to different effects of the talisman.
The character "井" is composed of two characters "二". In Yan Se's view, the character "二" can crush down like a giant iron pillar.
Therefore, the character "two" can suppress others and block the energy of heaven and earth, but there are gaps on the left and right of the character "two", which is not perfect.
Thus the character “井” was born, with a person located in the “口” at the center of the character, just like a person trapped in a dry well, crying out to the sky and the earth for help but no one can help.
This is a pictographic divine symbol, which gives special power to the characters according to their image. The "人" character that Ning Que drew at the end is a pictographic divine symbol, which mobilizes the power of the human world.
At this time Gongsun Ce stretched out his right hand, turned his right hand gently, and then drew the character "龙" in dragon script on his right hand.
The talisman drawn by Gongsun Ce at this moment is equivalent to a symbolic talisman. This talisman allows Gongsun Ce to easily evolve the power of wind and fire and materialize the spirit.
Therefore, the character "dragon" represents all the power of Gongsun Ce's dragon bloodline, which means that Gongsun Ce can break free from the constraints of dragon bloodline and then use the power of words.
Moreover, as Gongsun Ce becomes stronger, the power of the talisman will gradually become stronger, from using the Word Spirit to controlling the power represented by the Word Spirit - the power of wind, fire and spirit.
However, the power of the talisman is currently not as strong as the power of the word spirit, because Gongsun Ce has not yet unlocked the Dragon King's exclusive word spirit among the dragon clan's words.
Zhulong, the king of bronze and fire, Shiva's Karma Dance, the king of earth and mountains, Guixu, the king of ocean and water, and Indra's Wrath, the king of sky and wind.
These word spirits are called the world-destroying word spirits or god-level word spirits. Only by extracting these word spirits can Gongsun Ce be close to mastering the power that the dragon bloodline can bring.
Word Spirit·Evolution
In order to extract new Word Spirits as quickly as possible, Gongsun Ce had been using Tianyan with all his might during the period of meditation with Xiao Meng and Bei Mingzi.
This will improve the proficiency of Tianyan and then draw new words.
However, even if you get the chance to draw a Word Spirit, whether you can draw the Dragon King’s exclusive Word Spirit is still a matter of probability.
It is New Year's Eve again, and Gongsun Ce's proficiency in Word Spirit·Tian Yan has been successfully maxed out, which also means that Gongsun Ce can draw new Word Spirits.
Gongsun Ce glanced around and then rubbed Xiaomeng's head.
"what are you doing?"
"Take advantage of your luck. White-haired people seem to have good luck."
Gongsun Ce was met with Xiao Meng's contempt, then he smiled slightly and began to draw new words.
The dragon clan has many word spirits, with a total of 118 types made into a sequence list, and there are many word spirits that have names but are difficult to be included in the word spirit sequence list.
Because these words are difficult to rank, it may be because there are too few users, or it may be because the specific effects of the words are unclear.
Dragon language is a difficult native language for mixed-bloods. They can understand it and read it, but they don’t know how to use it.
Because the grammar of Longwen has been lost, and the extended meaning of some parts of Longwen is unclear.
This results in the hybrids being able to use basically only one kind of spiritual language and being unable to communicate through dragon script.
For the dragon clan, dragon script is their native language with a very clear meaning. They can create new words through permutations and combinations, but not all words are useful.
So theoretically, the number of Word Spirits is so large that it is difficult to count, so Gongsun Ce has had good luck in drawing Word Spirits along the way.
As Gongsun Ce drew out the words with his mind, a new line of text appeared on the system panel in front of him.

Number of Word Spirit Extractions: 0
The glaring words "Shadow Emperor" made Gongsun Ce realize that his bloodline at this moment had reached an extremely high level, a bloodline that surpassed the definition of S-level.
The bloodline level is between the second generation and the first generation Dragon King.
In other words, before Xia Mi completely transformed into a dragon, her bloodline was not as high as Gongsun Ce's.
Gongsun Ce opened his mouth and the sound that came out of his mouth was dragon language. According to Gongsun Ce's current understanding of dragon language, it was a very simple word - death.
Before the Word Spirit·Judgment Field opened, Gongsun Ce quickly used his unlimited magical power to leave the small bamboo forest in Taiyi Mountain.
The next moment, Gongsun Ce’s figure appeared in the endless yellow sand.
At this time, the field of Word Spirit·Judgment opened. The yellow sand was a dead thing, and the field of judgment could not kill the yellow sand, so a wave of fire was set off above the yellow sand.
This wave of fire is unique in that it can burn directly on the yellow sand without the need for any combustible materials.
After the fire wave faded, the large area of yellow sand under Gongsun Ce's feet had turned into crystals.
Gongsun Ce now understood the mechanism of judgment. Objects that cannot be killed will change their form.
In the realm of judgment, tables and chairs will be smashed, water will be frozen, and yellow sand will be burned...
This is the death power of judgment, the power to obliterate all existence.
This ability comes from the White King. It is extremely powerful, but also difficult to control.
Gongsun Ce could only choose not to speak for the time being. He could feel that if he opened his mouth at this moment, the Word Spirit·Judgment would inevitably be activated uncontrollably.
Wherever he went, there were deaths. Gongsun Ce didn't want to see this scene.
Given Gongsun Ce some time, he would be able to suppress this power and easily control the opening and closing of Word Spirit·Judgment.
Gongsun Ce picked up the crystals on the ground and began to perform simple processing.
The New Year is approaching, and Gongsun Ce is preparing to give some small gifts to the young women in his backyard as a token of his thoughtfulness.
After making a bunch of small ornaments, Gongsun Ce took a step back to Taiyi Mountain, picked up Xiao Meng without saying a word, and then took another step back to Taiwei Mansion.
When Bei Mingzi opened his eyes, he found that Gongsun Ce was gone, and Xiao Meng was gone too. However, he did not care too much. After so many years, he was used to spending the New Year alone.
Xiao Meng's eyes blurred and the next moment she found herself in the Taiwei Mansion, which made her a little confused.
"Why did you bring me here? To spend the New Year with you?"
Gongsun Ce glanced at Xiao Meng without saying anything, but continued to carry Xiao Meng to the backyard of the Taiwei Mansion.
It hasn't snowed yet this year, which shows that the snow will come later this year.
Therefore, Gongsun Ce's own family banquet was held in the yard. Gongsun Yan took Mi Lian to run around the yard, and Mi Lian also had a smile on her face.
Judging from the time, Mi Lian's sister Mi Xin was about to be born. Changping Jun probably didn't expect that he made a bet with Tian Yi just to have a son, but in the end he had a daughter.
"Where did you kidnap this little girl from, young master?"
Yan Lingji noticed that Xiao Meng was struggling in Gongsun Ce's arms, and teased her a few times, but got no response from Gongsun Ce.
Gongsun Ce pointed to his lips and waved his hand.
Seeing the concern and panic gradually appearing in Yan Lingji's eyes, Gongsun Ce waved his hand, and the sand on the ground gradually formed a paragraph:
There is a small problem with my power, so I can't speak for the time being, small matter. This little girl is called Xiaomeng, a Taoist disciple, and I brought her back to have some fun.
The concern in Yan Lingji's eyes remained the same, but the panic had subsided.
Yan Lingji stepped forward and took Gongsun Ce's arm, squeezing Xiao Meng's living space.
"How long will it take for the little master to recover?"
Gongsun Ce shook his head, and the sand on the ground changed again, forming a piece of text: I don’t know, maybe a few months, maybe a year or two.
"Ah? It takes so long. Then will it affect other aspects, such as..."
Gongsun Ce looked at Yan Lingji with a sudden helplessness in his eyes. Yan Lingji was indeed an experienced driver. At this speed, he almost couldn't keep up.
Gongsun Ce thought for a moment and put Xiao Meng down, then he used his free hand to write the character "dragon" in the air.
The next moment, Gongsun Ce's spiritual essence turned into sound and was transmitted directly into Yan Lingji's ears.
"Except for not being able to speak, there is no impact at all."
"Then I feel relieved. After all, the young master has a lot of sisters at home."
"Come on, help me introduce Xiao Meng to everyone."
"Hehe, okay."
Yan Lingji leaned almost completely in Gongsun Ce's arms, allowing her to get closer to Gongsun Ce.
After a happy gathering, Gongsun Ce decided to solve the problem of Word Spirit·Judgment as soon as possible, so he had to find a place where few people go, or simply go to the world of Ever Night.
To put it cruelly, everyone in the world of Jiang Ye has nothing to do with Gongsun Ce, and he really has no concerns about anyone dying if he opens his mouth.
After thinking about it, Gongsun Ce decided to go to the Jiang Ye world to take a look. In addition, Gongsun Ce was also a little curious. The Qin world did not seem to have some of the concerns that the Jiang Ye world had.
After the Haotian incident, the vitality of the Evernight world was lost rapidly, and soon it became difficult to practice in the Evernight world.
Is this a flaw of the Ever Night world itself, or is this Haotian's final revenge?
Gongsun Ce came to Zhangtai Palace, and Ying Zheng was handling government affairs as usual.
"Mr. Gongsun, what is the purpose of your visit today?"
Gongsun Ce hooked his finger, and then a piece of bamboo paper floated in front of Ying Zheng. Under Gongsun Ce's control, the fountain pen in Ying Zheng's hand left a passage of words on the bamboo paper:
I have a little problem with my practice, and I need to go to a deserted place to retreat for a year or two, so I am leaving today. I hope that after I leave, Tongming Academy will have been completed and Wei State will have been conquered.
Ying Zheng glanced at Gongsun Ce, and nodded after a moment's silence. Although he was used to asking Gongsun when he was in doubt, even if Gongsun Ce went into seclusion for a year or two, everything in Daqin could continue in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Gongsun, please have a good rest. When Mr. Gongsun comes out of retreat, everything will be settled. Tongming Academy will flourish, and Wei will be included in the territory of our Great Qin."
