As the name implied, the central hub room was the pivotal location of the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
The secret chamber was circular, its walls shimmering with starlight. In the center stood a round table of white jade. Stacked upon the table was an intricate model, akin to a sand table, depicting the complete picture of the Imperial Court Blessed Land.
Not only the mountains and rivers, but the central Sacred Palace, and even the various small towers within the blessed land were clearly visible.
“I’m back here again,” the will of Mo Yao sighed in his mind.
Fang Yuan ignored her, merely casting his gaze towards the white jade table.
Since entering the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, he first used the Visitor Token to reach an upper-tier clearance and enter the Secret Archive Pavilion. He then refined the Visitor Stop Stele, found the Glazed Crystal Tower Master Token, and used it to enter the central hub room.
However, because of the Earth Hill Inheritance, he chose to temporarily suspend his conquest of the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building and refined the Disaster Beckoning Immortal Gu.
Overall, the Earth Hill Inheritance had its advantages and disadvantages.
Although Fang Yuan obtained an Immortal Gu, its effect was special—it harmed the user to benefit others.
Furthermore, Mo Yao’s Will had infiltrated his mind, becoming a heavy burden that was hard to shake off, bringing severe internal strife. But one had to admit that Mo Yao’s guidance over the past few days had greatly benefited him. Setting aside her insights on the Refinement Path, just the killer moves like the Six-Armed Heavenly Corpse King and Inkification, as well as the improved recipe for the Di Kui Corpse Gu, were incredibly valuable!
Besides this, there was another huge benefit.
That was her immense usefulness to Fang Yuan’s schemes regarding the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
After all, Mo Yao was a Refinement Path Grandmaster deeply studied in the Tower. Having infiltrated the Imperial Court Blessed Land back then, she was the legendary figure who created the flaw and established the Earth Hill Inheritance!
Fang Yuan had memories of his past life, recordings of the Central Continent Gu Immortals storming the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, precious first-hand information from the Lang Ya land spirit, and now Mo Yao as a powerful helper as well.
This time, he was brimming with confidence.
But then, his gaze paused slightly, and he let out a surprised gasp.
He clearly remembered. Originally, the sand table was covered in a layer of viscous black liquid. The liquid formed a leaking vortex, slowly pouring into a hole in the sand table.
This hole was none other than the location of the Earth Hill Inheritance.
But now, the ink on the sand table had vanished, and the spot corresponding to the Earth Hill had fully recovered, without a trace of the leak.
This scene felt like a heavy blow to Fang Yuan’s confidence.
His heart stirred. Just as he was making a guess, Mo Yao’s Will in his mind understood his thoughts and chuckled lightly. “Gain implies loss, little brother. Now that you have taken the Earth Hill Inheritance, the might of the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building must have already restored that former flaw. Since the hole in the Earth Hill is gone, a small tower must have been rebuilt in its place.”
“Without the flaw, how can I refine the Glazed Crystal Tower Master Token into a One Corner Tower Master Token?” Fang Yuan asked for guidance.
“If there is no flaw, just create a new one.” Mo Yao smiled proudly. “Why do you think I taught you the Refinement Path killer move Inkification? You should have guessed it already. That’s right, the black liquid covering the sand table back then was caused by the Inkification killer move.”
“If there is no flaw, just create one?” Mo Yao’s words fully displayed the bearing of a Refinement Path Grandmaster, causing Fang Yuan to raise an eyebrow.
Easier said than done, but how exactly could one create a flaw?
At least Fang Yuan, a Refinement Path Master, did not have this ability.
Mo Yao continued, “Flaws cannot be created just anywhere. Picking recklessly will only awaken the slumbering Giant Sun’s Will. If the Will awakens, we will all die without a place to be buried. Fortunately, the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building has weathered the vicissitudes of time. Its original perfection is no more, and time has carved out various flaws. Back then, I chose the Earth Hill precisely because it had the greatest flaw.”
“I see.” Fang Yuan nodded, secretly overjoyed.
Mo Yao’s Will was like water without a source. To find the flaws and cracks, she would have to do a lot of thinking, which would consume her greatly.
However, Mo Yao did not let Fang Yuan have his way. Instead, she said, “Little brother, follow my instructions. Probe the sand table with your mind, and I will tell you the operational secrets of the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, helping you find the flaws and cracks.”
“Alright.” Fang Yuan’s gaze flickered.
This move by Mo Yao did not surprise him.
She cherished herself; she didn’t need to do the thinking herself. Fang Yuan could just take this golden opportunity to learn by stealing her knowledge, deepening his understanding of the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
The Eighty-Eight True Yang Building was extraordinarily profound. When Fang Yuan probed the sand table with his mind, it was like a small boat placed in a vast ocean, feeling boundless and unfathomably deep. Every single corner and edge was worthy of his deep thought and learning.
At that moment, he felt profoundly small, utterly amazed.
Following Mo Yao’s guidance, Fang Yuan found a total of fifty-four flaws, of which thirteen were major, forming cracks that could rival the one at the Earth Hill.
This result made Mo Yao sigh with deep emotion. “Time flies. So many years have passed. Even the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building cannot escape the erosion of the long river of time. Thinking back, I only found thirty-eight flaws and six cracks back then.”
She paused for a moment, then continued to instruct Fang Yuan. “Little brother, next, you can use the killer move Inkification to refine these cracks.”
