Going to the main hall of the palace, Qin Cheng found Yan Wangshu.

The night was as cool as water, and a graceful lady dressed in palace attire was sitting behind the railing of a high pavilion in the palace, playing the piano under the moonlight.

The moonlight is beautiful and the music of the piano is melodious.

Qin Cheng stood in the distance and paused carefully for a moment. Although he didn't understand the music very well, he could still tell that the sound of the piano was either high-pitched and passionate, or low-pitched and melodious, giving people a feeling of complacency and confusion.

"The palace master is good at playing the piano. It's not just some music that is so moving."

After the song was played, Qin Cheng came over and spoke slowly.

"It's just local music from Qingzhou." Yan Wangshu smiled slightly.

"My mind suddenly came to this, so I couldn't help but play a song to make you laugh. I'll wait for a while."

"No, I don't have anything important to do, and Palace Master Yan is worried about the Ascending Heaven Society?" Qin Cheng said.

"Well, the Heaven Ascension Meeting is about to begin. This will affect the next two thousand years of Gyeongju. I am the Lord of the First Palace in front of others and cannot show it, but it is natural to feel uneasy in my heart."

Qin Cheng nodded.

Although Yan Wangshu is young, now that he has become the controller of a state, he must shoulder the heavy responsibility of Gyeongju.

On the surface, it is natural to have no ripples in the ancient well and not be surprised by changes.

But how could it be possible if there were no inner thoughts?

"Neither Elder Sun nor Qin Xue know the palace master's mood," Qin Cheng said.

"How can I let them see that you are an outsider monk, so I don't care about this." Yan Wangshu smiled and said.

"You came to me in the middle of the night, maybe you have something to do."

He called the maid and served Qin Cheng tea, and the two of them sat leaning on the railing.

"Yes, I really want to know more about the Ascending Heaven Society, mainly the dangerous aspects." Qin Cheng said seriously.

At the dinner, Xing Yu's threat was not taken seriously, but Qin Cheng remembered what the other party said about the Climbing Heaven Meeting.

Only then did I realize that I had only a vague understanding of the Climbing Heaven Society before, and I didn’t understand it well at all.

"What did Xing Yu tell you?"

Yan Wangshu Bingxue was smart and reacted quickly.

"He should have said that climbing to heaven will be extremely dangerous, with thorns and thorns on every step."

"That's right, so I want to know what's really dangerous, or is he lying to me," Qin Cheng said.

"What he said is right, but I can't tell you." Yan Wangshu said.

"Why?" Qin Cheng was stunned.

"Because I don't know what dangers there are specifically."

As soon as Yan Wangshu said these words, Qin Cheng suddenly stared.

"Palace Master Yan, are you trying to make me happy?"

As the lord of the first palace, he doesn’t even know the specific situation of ascending to heaven?

What will happen when the monks from Gyeongju fall?

"I'm not kidding you. The location of the Climbing Heaven Club is not just a dangerous place. Its situation is very complicated." Yan Wangshu said seriously.

"Since you want to understand, I can also tell you from the beginning. First, you need to know what the Climbing Heaven Club is about."

"The Ascension Society was founded by the venerable man who saved the human monks back then, but its purpose is not just to bring opportunities and benefits to the human monks."

"The opportunities within the Ascension Society are only a small part of it. Its existence, to a greater extent, maintains the stability of the entire continent, including humans and monsters."

"This is also the basis for the mainland to maintain peace for many years since the war between the human monks and the demon clan, and no major battles have occurred again."

"Qin Cheng, have you ever wondered why all the major forces in Jiuzhou Continent are willing to obey the instructions of Xingchen Palace? Xingchen Palace selflessly cultivates monks and does not hinder their departure and choice. Why?"

"Also, why are there no battles over resources and territory between the Jiuzhou Continent, and why there has never been a war between the Jiuzhou Continent and the Monster Clan."

"Want to hear the details."

Qin Cheng frowned slightly, realizing that what Yan Wangshu said had already touched upon the core of Jiuzhou Continent.

"It's all because of the existence of the Climbing Heaven Society." Yan Wangshu's beautiful eyes were bright.

"What do monks need most? It's not pills or exercises, but spiritual energy and spiritual stones. All the spiritual stones in Jiuzhou Continent, as well as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, are all controlled by the Venerable, or the rules left by the Venerable.

.”

"The Heaven Ascension Meeting every two thousand years determines how many spiritual stones and spiritual ores the five demon clans and Kyushu can control in the future. It also provides the cultivation resources for the survival of Kyushu Star Palace."

"Therefore, Jiuzhou Star Palace does not need to compete with major forces for resources, nor does it need to restrict or even restrict the actions of disciples like sects do, and tie them down."

"This is one of the reasons why the Star Palace has a transcendent status, because instead of competing for interests, every two thousand years, it can unite the monks from all over the state to participate in the competition at the Heaven Ascension Meeting. This is a cohesion that no big force has.

"

"But what if some forces are really capable of replacing the Star Palace?" Qin Cheng said.

"This kind of thing will not happen, because when it can really be replaced, it will become the new Star Palace, or be destroyed by the other eight states. When a rule is feasible and can bring stability to the cultivation world,

No one wants to break it easily." Yan Wangshu said confidently.

"This is probably the reason why Longzhou, despite being so powerful, only dares to develop its power in private, but cannot launch attacks and invade other states." Qin Cheng said thoughtfully.

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

"In addition, there is another reason, that is it."

Yan Wangshu turned her hand over, and wisps of faint bright brilliance emerged from her hand. Then the brilliance condensed, and gradually condensed on her palm, forming a white crystal stone with sharp edges and corners that reflected the blurred brilliance.

After the crystal appeared, Qin Cheng felt the void around him begin to tremble slightly, as if the crystal, which was about the size of a palm, contained endless power.

He had a feeling that the mysterious Chengdu of this crystal stone far surpassed the fifth-grade immortal weapon in his hand, and could not even be compared with it.

"This thing is..."

Looking at the crystal, Qin Cheng's pupils shrank slightly.

"This thing is called the Star Crystal."

Yan Wangshu's voice was a little higher, and there was a hint of awe and dignity.

"This is a symbol that represents the highest power of a state. The person who owns it is the real controller and guardian of Gyeongju."

"It is like a key that controls all the spiritual stone resources in Gyeongju. It is the real key to the treasure house."

"At the same time, this object also represents Qingzhou in the Heaven Climbing Conference. Because of the existence of these star crystals, there is nothing that Longzhou can do no matter how much it desires the power of other states."

After Yan Wangshu finished speaking, he waved his hand again, and the star crystal disappeared.

"This thing was originally cut by the Venerable from a crystal stone. Now there are fourteen copies in total, which are in the hands of our Nine Provinces Palace Master and the five Demon Emperors."
