"Me?"

The woman hidden beneath the Sword Weapon Waterfall appeared obviously surprised.

"Do you still remember the day we became Dao companions?"

Xie Xuanyi chuckled lightly and said, "We left Da Sui Sword Palace together and found a place with mountains and waterfalls."

"Of course, I remember."

The woman frowned and said, "That day was supposed to be a grand celebration, yet you neglected me... What did I do wrong?"

"You played your part well."

Xie Xuanyi said, "It's just a pity that speaking too much inevitably reveals flaws."

The woman silently recalled the conversation from five years ago, suddenly freezing in place.

["I met the Zen Master once, and the River of Destiny is currently in a chaotic state... Someone is manipulating the river, altering cause and effect. I suspect this Divine Travel World has already been tampered with."]

["You mean... the cause and effect here have been modified by the Paperman Sect?"]

The memory froze at this point.

So that's it, the woman sighed softly, indeed speaking too much can lead to mistakes.

"My junior sister's Divine Soul is weak; during that conversation at the North Sea Bottom, she didn't have a chance to hear clearly."

Xie Xuanyi said lightly, "Even if she knew someone was interfering with the River of Destiny... how could she directly conclude it was the work of the 'Paper Taoist'?"

"Do you know? The thing I hate most is Sword Cultivators."

The woman's clothes fluttered in the wind as she quietly said, "Even the tiniest trace of a clue can be found by Sword Cultivators. Based on just this one sentence, did you deduce it was me?"

"It's unnecessary, this one sentence."

Xie Xuanyi smiled and said, "Haven't we met many times already? You understand me; I don't need evidence to act, I rely on intuition."

"..."

The woman had nothing to say.

Because Xie Xuanyi indeed was like this; if it were Chen Jingxuan, he would always gather some evidence and clues, but Xie Xuanyi didn't need to. He did many things based on intuition, and his intuition was always precise and never wrong.

"Fine, I admit... you guessed very accurately, almost entirely right."

The woman smiled and said, "But so what? What can you do?"

This sentence sounded somewhat shameless.

But the reality was such... Lu Yuzhen's situation was even more unscrupulous than he said.

The Paperman Technique has already spread throughout this Divine Travel World.

Emperor Chu, King Yanle, and the higher-ups of Northern County all became members of the "Paperman Sect." The reason why the entire Da Chu Dynasty was so "peaceful" was because an invisible White Paper Barrier had long enveloped it.

Relying on repeated "shuttle retrospection."

Lu Yuzhen had already become the ruler of this world.

Not to mention Xie Xuanyi now was only Yin God; even if he were Yang God... then what?

"The Paperman Sect disappeared entirely overnight in South Border, and even though you can shuttle in the River of Destiny with the [Daoist Brush], what about those 'people' under you?"

Xie Xuanyi did not answer this question but spoke instead to himself, "Although Divine Travel has no realm requirement, there are still other restrictions... with Jiang Miaoyin's Yin God Peak Divine Soul, she couldn't withstand the soul thought erosion of this Divine Travel World..."

Even myself.

Traveling through the Divine Travel World for five years, I'm about to be "assimilated."

Lu Yuzhen has many important "chess pieces" under him.

Jing San, Mo Si, Chi Wu, Qin Liu, Xiao Qi, Xiang Ba, Dao Jiu.

These people wouldn't simply be "refined" out of thin air, right?

Lu Yuzhen and White Ghost Red Immortal are fundamentally different; since he chose to establish the Paperman Sect and house these Treasures, nurturing their Transformation and Awakening... he wouldn't easily sacrifice them.

"Since your guesses are spot on, why not keep guessing?"

The woman spoke leisurely, not in a hurry.

"It's not a hard guess."

Xie Xuanyi said, "Treasure Transformation and Awakening is much more difficult than Great Demons, the Heavenly Dao is fair, and these Transformed Treasures' 'Divine Souls' are countless times stronger than mortals'."

In the Beihai Tomb, those Treasures have endured hundreds to thousands of years of wear and tear.

Mortals cannot endure loneliness.

But for these Transformed Treasures... loneliness doesn't count for much.

From this perspective.

These Treasures are almost the best candidates for "Divine Travel," given their Divine Soul's strength, they don't have to worry about their souls being unable to endure the passage of time and thus rotting into assimilation, losing their "self"... after all, in most unaltered cause and effect lines, their "self" is merely a lifeless object without a Divine Sea.

"You nurturing these Treasures must have been intending to use them as 'Anchor Points,' right?"

Xie Xuanyi said, "One Treasure anchors one Divine Travel World. Transformed Treasures don't have to worry about the erosion of time; they're devoted to you, and even if your true form isn't in this time-space, they can still control the situation for you and cast the Paperman Technique."

"Heh... haha..."

The woman across the Sword Weapon Waterfall suddenly laughed softly. However, this laughter was no longer light, but carried a hint of gloominess.

"With this understanding, what I need to do becomes simple."

Xie Xuanyi said unhurriedly, "Lu Yuzhen, if you lose the Anchor Points, you would find returning to this world very challenging, right? Such a nearly perfect Da Chu Dynasty would require countless Divine Travels, countless cause and effect alterations..."

"Speaking of Anchor Points, shouldn't you be more worried about yourself?"

The woman replied quietly, "If you lose the Anchor Points, you'll be trapped here forever... do you want to become another 'Xiao Yaozi'?"

These words seemed to hold a lot of meaning.

Xie Xuanyi sharply caught the anomaly in her tone.

After thinking for a moment, Xie Xuanyi's eyes shone brightly, and he spoke coldly, "You are the [Longevity Pool] in the Pure White Mountain?"

Thinking carefully, it made total sense.

Even though Lu Yuzhen could use the [Daoist Brush] to shuttle the River of Destiny, he was tangled with the Zen Master; considering many restrictions, his true form likely couldn't take care of this realm.
