Chapter 4, The Authentic Divination (II)

However, he smiled warmly on his face, and that feeling did not seem to care about the fatigue.

This is somewhat similar to the current online videos, but this type of video is more authentic and more suitable for discussing confidential matters

Under the heavens, all things are one

This statement is indeed too vague, making it impossible to seek its true meaning

Just after the hour of the Rat, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in Chen Zhi's room

However, you must remember that matters of destiny have always been elusive and intangible, impossible to grasp, yet forever inescapable

Upon seeing that smile, Chen Zhi was certain that this face would forever be his friend

However, I remind you that what you most want to know may not necessarily be what you must know

You are the most curious, yet also the most timid

Are you clear on this point

From now on, I shall be your diviner

Xuanlin will employ a spell of distant communication to project his image from the distant Changbai Mountain, appearing as an illusion before Chen Zhi to engage in conversation with him

The divine has been informed

What method can be used to defeat the Queen of the Underworld three years later? Please point me to a path to victory

The incantations of shamanism are quite strange, sounding unsettling and even chilling to the bone

Xuanlin's voice was soft, and a hint of a familiar smile appeared on that perfect face

But in the end, his cold, rational mind prevailed over the pursuit of the wind

Each word feels drenched in blood, evoking the most primal instincts of beastliness

However, the masked Xuanlin ahead appeared so unfamiliar. After he finished speaking, he suddenly froze, like a lifeless corpse, his arm falling down with a thud.

In the darkness where five fingers could not be seen, the light gradually enlarged, slowly taking on a human form, and finally appeared clearly before Chen Zhi.

You must tread the path of your ancestors, imitating what they gained and what they lost

After Xuanlin finished speaking, he slowly lowered his head and put on the mask

The curtains around are loosely drawn, the window is open, and the night breeze has blown in

I will answer your questions and also guide you

My question is

In a tranquil world, time always passes so swiftly. Chen Zhi has been guarding the Hall of Destiny, having experienced 99 days of quietude.

Xuanlin's face bore many burn marks, and his appearance was extremely haggard. The recent divination ceremony had clearly left him mentally and physically exhausted

You can only ask one question. The divine suggests that you choose the most urgent question, as some issues will resolve themselves as you follow your destiny. Knowing too early may not necessarily be a good thing

Understood

What one is unwilling to say is precisely that which cannot be spoken

Xuan Lin sat there cold and indifferent, raising a hand and pointing directly at Chen Zhi, slowly speaking in extremely primitive Huaxia divine script

On this day, the long-awaited day of the first compensation finally arrived

What the heavens are willing to reveal is what can be revealed

Once a question is posed from your mouth, it cannot be changed

At the moment he put on that silver-white mask

Chen Zhi gently waved his hand, the window closed, and the thick curtains were immediately drawn shut, plunging the room into utter darkness

What does it mean ... ... , a sense of doubt immediately arose in Chen Zhi's mind, but he did not voice his question

At this moment, Xuanlin's aura behind him resembled an unfathomable black hole, vast and profound, instilling a sense of awe that deterred any attempt at desecration

At that moment, he removed his mask, revealing his true face

The illegitimate son of the Jiang family, with a status disparity.

At that moment, Chen Zhi suddenly felt a strange sensation, as if the true Xuanlin had vanished, leaving behind something unknown behind that mask

You must never question the secrets of heaven, nor press for answers, nor pursue the matter to its roots

Every aspect of his body is flawless, and every detail of his face is impeccable. His eyes sparkle with a radiance unique to the divine.

And his body instantly collapsed to the ground, as if he had suddenly died of a heart attack

Then, Xuanlin's body began to twist in a strange manner, starting to perform a peculiar dance on the spot

Chen Zhi sat opposite him, remaining still and unperturbed, simply gazing quietly at Xuan Lin

After a long period of time, Xuan Lin finally came to a standstill, yet he did not remove his mask; instead, he gazed at Chen Zhi with his masked face

In an instant, an infinite brilliance of blue and white light erupted from him, illuminating the dark room like a ghostly flame

Then the brightness, ethereal and elusive, resembles a soul emerging from the darkness, yet it carries a captivating sense of pressure

The items under the Changbai Mountain are associated with the three deities, holding significant value.

Are you satisfied with the results of the first divination

If one wishes to rebel against authority, one must defeat the lord of Fengdu beneath Changbai Mountain

After Xuanlin finished speaking, he slowly closed his eyes, waiting for Chen Zhi's response

He wore a multicolored crown on his head, long gauntlets on his fingers, and held a golden ritual drum, sitting upright before Chen Zhi

But please remember, when I don the mask, what I convey to you is the secret of heaven

I know, you have many choices!" Xuan Lin said softly

According to their previous agreement, Chen Zhi no longer needs to meet Xuan Lin at Changbai Mountain

If you feel confused, I, as your friend, can offer you a few pointers

Xuanlin's eyes sparkled with a dazzling brilliance, and his voice was as calm as the water in the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain

This dance is quite peculiar, as if the body has no bones at all. It resembles a boneless skin, slowly stretching and twisting in place

The agreed time was at the end of the Zi hour, and during the Zi hour, Chen Zhi had already been waiting in his room

Chen Zhi stared at Xuan Lin for a long time, during which all his curiosity was desperately struggling

Meanwhile, a strange chanting sound came through the mask, emanating from Xuanlin's mouth

Let's get started

The night sky in early summer is very quiet, with a multitude of stars shining brightly, resembling a cluster of eyes quietly watching him

The meaning of those words is incomprehensible to Chen Zhi, yet they evoke a primitive sense of rawness, as if one were consuming flesh and blood.

Alright, Chief Chen, now please tell me, what would you like to inquire about through divination

How is it

Chen Zhi answered with great certainty and then sat upright in front of Xuan Lin

After the sealing of the divine, everything has truly changed

Suddenly, an ancient flavor of the Jurchen shamanism came rushing towards me, a feeling that was both mysterious and even chilling

After a while, Xuan Lin moved slightly and then sat up again

At this moment, the attire worn by Xuanlin is exceedingly extravagant, representing the most primitive shamanistic garments. The fur is skillfully crafted, adorned with vibrant and striking colors, and is embellished with an abundance of pearls and agates, reminiscent of the divine garments found in the Qing Dynasty court, exuding an air of opulence

This includes a question you most want to know
