Chapter 2321: Seeking Daotian

can just stay with Brother Fang Yu for now," Zhao ZiNan said a little dejectedly."Little wind chime." Fang Yu recalled something and looked to the side."I'm here, master." Xiaofengling replied."You go..."It's me." Dao Tian's expression didn't change much as he said, "I left a wisp of my will here, just to wait for you, or... Fang Yu's arrival."

"...Junior brother..." A flicker of surprise crossed Dao Chen's face at the time.

"At that time, I had no news of you at all, so I didn't think it was possible for you to appear in the Void Realm." Daochen beside Fangyu explained.

"Master, I..."

Dao Chen at that time obviously saw Dao Tian, and seemed extremely excited, for a moment he couldn't say anything.

"Daochen, take this copper plate."

Daotian flipped his right hand over, and a glimmer of light appeared in his palm, revealing a copper plate.

That copper plate was precisely the one now in Fang Yu's hands!

But at that time, Daochen didn't directly reach out to take the copper plate. Instead, he asked with doubt, "Master, what is this copper plate"

"Within it lies a great secret. If you can decipher it, you'll gain immense power," Dao Tian looked at Dao Chen and said, "But remember, this copper plate must not leave the Xu Yuan Realm. If you fail to unravel its mysteries and wish to leave the Xu Yuan Realm... then, leave the copper plate behind. Do not take it out of the Xu Yuan Realm!"

When he said this, Dao Tian's tone was incredibly serious.

At that time, Daochen was still dumbfounded, and he hadn't taken the copper piece yet.

"Master, then me..."

When Dao Chen raised his head again, wanting to speak with Dao Tian, the figure of Dao Tian sitting cross-legged in front of him… just vanished!

Only the copper plate remained, shimmering with a faint glow, suspended in mid-air.

"Master!"

At that time, Daochen stood up and looked around, releasing his divine sense as well.

But, there were no discoveries.

Finally, he could only turn his gaze back to the copper plate and reach out to take it.

"Whoosh!"

Then, the surrounding scenery returned to its original form within the pavilion.

Standing beside Fang Yu, Daochen frowned and said, "This is the scene at that time. I still find it strange to this day."

What he just saw should be Dao Chen's memory from that time.

But in the memory, Master Dao Tian...from beginning to end, not a single superfluous word, his tone cold and hard, at the same time expressionless.

After many years of ascension, to meet his own disciple again... it shouldn't be this expression and tone.

According to Fang Yu's understanding of Dao Tian, even in a dangerous situation, it wouldn't be this way.

At that time, Tao Tian's state, tone of speech and expression were all normal.

"It's indeed strange, Master didn't even greet you before handing you this copper plate…" Fang Yu frowned and said, "Then he vanished, as if completing a task, with no emotion whatsoever."

“His state, does it resemble... a puppet” Daochen looked at Fang Yu, narrowing his eyes and asking.

Daochen's words made Fangyu realize...indeed!

Dao Tian's performance from beginning to end, just like a puppet without its own consciousness!

“However, at that time, I could clearly sense my master’s presence. That presence was immutable and unique. I just replayed the memory for you; I couldn't simulate the aura he had at that time…” Daochen continued, “This is also why I’m certain it’s his will left behind.”

"If this is truly the Master's will, then why does he have such an expression" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes, his brows furrowed.

"Junior brother, please take another look at the situation of Master's will."

At this time, Daochen spoke again.

With a flick of his right hand, the phantom image of Da Tian, which he had seen before, materialized in front of him.

Compared to the dim environment before, it is now much clearer.

Meditating, eyes open.

His face was pale, his eyes bloodshot. His clothes... were also ragged.

And on the hands he revealed, one could see clear scars, and not just one, but many.

As for Dao Tian's face... Compared to the will he possessed when on Earth, it was much older and more weathered.

Upon seeing this, Fang Yu's heart skipped a beat.

He suddenly remembered his past self-divination.

In that divination, he saw Daotian, Daocen, and Lin Batian.

At that time, Dao Tian was already withered and aged. His feet were shackled, a blade pierced through his chest, and he had already died...

...Combining Dao Chen's observations of the Heavenly Dao...

Fang Yu's heart clenched.

Could it be... that Master... really got into some trouble!

Fang Yu's eyes turned cold, and his breathing became a little quick.

"Junior brother, I felt the same way you did back then." Daochin patted Fang Yu on the shoulder and said, "But the clues left by Master are too scarce. Besides that copper tablet, there's nothing else."

"So, I began to study the copper tablet as my master instructed, spending a great deal of time and effort."

"However, the results weren't good... I still haven't been able to crack its secrets."

"What next" Fang Yu asked.

"At that time, I already had the strength to leave the Xu Yuan realm," Dao Chen said slowly. "But in order to decipher the secrets in the copper plate, I stayed here for a while longer, but...I was still clueless."

"But the state of Master's will is what truly concerns me."

After much deliberation, I decided to leave the copper plate behind and depart from the Xyphon Realm...to seek out my master.

"Senior brother, are you sure Master is no longer within the Xüyuán Realm" Fang Yu asked.

"I can't be sure, but I think it's highly unlikely he's within the Xiyuan Realm. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left behind the copper tablet," Daochen said.

Indeed, the copper sheet cannot leave the Void Realm...

“Junior brother, I don't know the exact time now, but since you see me and have obtained that copper piece, I think… perhaps this is fate's arrangement.” Daochen placed his hand on Fangyu's shoulder, facing him directly, and said, “Our three disciples have each obtained a copper piece, but neither my master nor I could decipher the mystery within. So, there's only you left.”

Fang Yu picked up the copper plate in his hand, his eyes flickering.

"What secrets lie within the copper plate, I'm not sure. But I tend to believe... that the secrets inside involve an extremely ancient lineage," Daochen said. "As for why I can't take the copper plate out of the Xu Yuan realm... I don't understand this point at all, but I trust my master's warnings."

"I also want to go find my master." Fang Yu held the copper plate in his hand and said.

"I understand how you feel. Everything depends on what you, junior brother, think is best," Daochen said with a gentle smile. "If you can unravel the mystery within the copper plate, then that would be ideal. If it proves too difficult, then leave the copper plate behind and go seek out Master."

"Junior brother, I have a feeling that one day... all three of us disciples will meet again," Dao Chen said, "Then we can have a good chat."'ve already guessed his thoughts, why not just kill him" Fang Yu asked curiously. "This Han Dingtian is truly not a good person.""... I owe him my life." Yuan Wang replied."Oh, I see." Fang Yu nodded...
