After hearing Zhaoyang Jianzun's well-considered words, Yan Qing was not at all surprised by his decision.

In the original plot, Zhaoyang Sword Master was also a member of the Soul-Forging Immortal Ladder.

Others all say that the ruthless sword cultivators are the most cold-blooded and heartless, but after this incident, they have changed a lot.

The world is ruthless, but people are affectionate.

But now, Yan Qing looked at Zhaoyang Jianzun's serious expression and slowly shook his head.

Zhaoyang Jianzun thought Yan Qing didn't agree with him using his soul to repair the ladder, so he said firmly: "Uncle Master, I am willing to do this. Besides, I am the most suitable candidate now, right?"

The Soul-Forged Immortal Ladder, it goes without saying that the soul and spirit will be destroyed, there is no reincarnation, and no afterlife.

There are certainly other Mahayana cultivators in the world of cultivation, but how many of them are willing to devote hundreds of years of dedicated practice to achieve this result?

Yan Qing knew that Zhaoyang Jianzun had misunderstood her meaning, so she said in a low voice: "The Immortal Ladder cannot be repaired by the soul of a Mahayana cultivator alone."

At this point, Yan Qing paused, facing the cold eyes of Zhaoyang Sword Master before continuing: "If you want to reopen the road to heaven, you must have four willing Mahayana cultivators to repair the ladder. The strength of one person is ultimately a drop in the bucket."

There were originally five, but Yan Qing thought of the Wang technique that she had already used to forge the Soul-Forged Immortal Ladder before she came to this small world, so she subtracted one.

After hearing these words, Zhaoyang Jianzun's aura became a little stagnant. When he first heard about it, he thought that all he wanted was the soul of a Mahayana cultivator.

but

I didn't expect it would take four.

There are very few Mahayana cultivators in Canglan. Even if you look at the entire cultivation world, there are only a handful of Mahayana cultivators who show up, and they are all scattered among various realms. On the surface, they all maintain a delicate balance.

As for those hiding in the dark, Zhaoyang Sword Master could not find any trace of them, just like his master, Venerable Chao Ran, who had no trace at all and even he could not find any trace of them.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to gather four Mahayana monks who are willing to sacrifice themselves.

So, this time, Zhaoyang Sword Master fell silent for a rare time, thinking in his heart how to break the situation.

Yan Qing naturally knew about the concerns of Zhaoyang Sword Master. In the original work, there were two cultivators from Canglan, Wangshu and Zhaoyang, and a Demon Master Zhan Yun who was in seclusion in the Demon Realm. One of the remaining two was the Demon King who sat in the Demon Realm, and the last one was the Ghost King in the Ghost Realm.

The fact that the two behind him were willing to sacrifice themselves was also related to the top and bottom protagonists. Zhaoyang Jianzun alone could not convince them.

After a long while, Zhaoyang Sword Master seemed to have made up his mind, and said firmly: "Although I cannot influence other people's decisions, I will never regret this matter even if I die."

Even though he faced failure in the end due to insufficient numbers, Zhaoyang Jianzun still firmly believed that there were countless geniuses in Canglan, and after he sacrificed himself, there would definitely be a second Mahayana cultivator who was willing to sacrifice himself to pave the way for future generations within three hundred years.

As long as time goes on, there will always be some powerful monks who are willing to risk their lives to pave the way for those unknown younger generations.

The only thing that worries Zhaoyang Jianzun is that by then all the cultivators on the Soul Forging Immortal Ladder will be from Canglan, and the balance between Canglan and the other races will be broken. If the demons counterattack, or the monsters interfere, the situation of the human cultivators will be in danger.

He didn't want the tragic scene that happened by the Ruoshui River to happen again.

Thinking of this, Zhaoyang Sword Master suddenly remembered the rumor that the Master of Tianji Pavilion could know everything in the world with just one divination.

But the thought of asking Yan Qing to help him calculate his future life only flashed through his mind before being suppressed by Zhaoyang Sword Master.

He couldn't ask for too much more.

Moreover, Zhaoyang Sword Master would not forget that when he first met Yan Qing, the Five-Colored Brocade had not yet been triggered.

When he suddenly saw Yan Qing's blindfolded eyes, he mistakenly thought that it was one of the five disadvantages and three shortcomings caused by prying into the secrets of heaven, one of the backlashes. If you know too much, you will always lose something as a price.

He thought Yan Qing had lost both eyes.

However, after the eyes of the five-colored brocade were triggered, Zhaoyang Sword Master knew that he was wrong.

But even if Yan Qing's eyes were not covered with white silk because of the backlash, Zhaoyang Sword Master could not ask Yan Qing to spy on the future again.

Just because Venerable Ling Wei was willing to let him call him Uncle Master didn't mean that he could make more demands by relying on their relationship with him.

While Zhaoyang was thinking over and over again, Yan Qing spoke again: "The most urgent task is not to use the soul as a sacrifice to repair the ladder."

Zhaoyang Jianzun was stunned, and all his thoughts came back to him. He raised his eyes and waited quietly for the young man's next words.

"In order to repair the ladder, in addition to the soul of a Mahayana cultivator, one more thing is needed."

"Asking the Heaven Stone."

Zhaoyang Sword Master frowned and asked, "Asking the Heavenly Stone?"

He had never heard of this thing.

Yan Qing nodded: "The cracks where the ladder collapsed need to be filled with the Heavenly Questioning Stone. The Heavenly Questioning Stone is the source of all worlds, not a real stone. Its shape is ever-changing, and it is not easy to find it."

As Yan Qing spoke, he turned his palm upwards, and a thing emitting black energy was suspended above it.

Zhaoyang Sword Master's eyes followed suit, and after feeling the powerful energy contained within, he couldn't help but frown even tighter. This thing didn't feel like a good thing to him.

But he knew that the only thing Yan Qing would take out at this moment was the Heavenly Stone.

As expected, the next moment, Zhaoyang Sword Master heard Yan Qingdan speak in a calm voice: "This is when I passed through the ghost domain a few years ago, I happened to encounter a secret realm. I had a premonition that there would be something I was looking for in the secret realm. Later, I saw this Heavenly Questioning Stone in the deepest part of the secret realm."

Zhaoyang Sword Master's eyes darkened. He was silent for a while before finally expressing his hesitation: "Forgive me for being so presumptuous, but this thing gives me a feeling that is too cold and sinister..."

Is it really possible to repair space cracks?

Yan Qing understood what Master Zhaoyang Sword meant, and she felt a little helpless.

Indeed, the thing in her hand was emitting black gas, and both its appearance and the energy inside did not give people the feeling that it was a good thing, so it was normal for others to question it.

But this thing really is the Heavenly Questioning Stone. It is only affected by the environment in the ghost realm that its original form becomes so sinister.

As for the remaining few Heavenly Questioning Stones, they were also affected by the boundary environment, and their shapes and energies were also different. Perhaps they looked even less like good things than the one in her hand, and it would be more difficult to find them.

These seemingly bad energies inside the Heavenly Questioning Stones can only unleash their full power, repair cracks and stabilize the ladder to heaven when all the Heavenly Questioning Stones are gathered together and their forces are blended with each other.
