Chapter 143: Chapter 101: Finding a Needle in a Haystack

Bei Mingxin thought to himself, "And this Divine Formless Jade, it originated from our Law Enforcement Hall thirty thousand seven thousand years ago."

The Yin Shen Palace frowned.

This is all a secret of the Main Sect.

He was somewhat puzzled about why Bei Mingxin was telling him, why he wanted his help; why not just get help from Ren Zhongyuan?

"Please, Lord, enlighten me."

Bei Mingxin sighed and said, "Let me clarify for you, when our Main Sect first acquired... the opportunity, there was a change in the starry sky, and many divine stones and metals fell from the heavens, you know of this, right?"

"Yes, over the years, there have been occasional drops from the starry sky."

"Yes, but what you don’t know is, among them was also the Divine Formless Jade, the kind without any attributes, usable by anyone, a high-level divine thing."

Bei Mingxin continued, "Back then, we didn’t have heavenly fortune or national luck, so these things were all enshrined at the Main Altar to absorb mortal fortune."

"Then later, one piece fell into the hands of a certain lord, achieving an unparalleled reputation at the time. But this time, he failed to resurrect, his divine soul was stripped, and his divine consciousness avatar perished, leading the Divine Formless Jade, originally one with his divine sense, to become an ownerless object."

"At the moment the divine consciousness avatar perished, after the Divine Formless Jade became ownerless, it randomly broke off and transmitted who knows where."

Bei Mingxin looked speechless.

"So the Main Altar came to us at the Law Enforcement Hall, because this piece of Divine Formless Jade was originally enshrined in our Law Enforcement Hall, but it’s already been thirty thousand seven thousand years, even if we were the ones enshrining it, how much sensing can we have now?"

"We mobilized the divine power in the Law Enforcement Hall to search, expanded entirely, and could only provide a rough location."

The Yin Shen Palace said, "A rough location?"

"Correct, within three thousand miles of White Cloud Continent."

Bei Mingxin smiled wryly.

"How big is this thing?"

"It shouldn’t be larger than a fingertip."

"Is there any way to pinpoint the location? Or sense it?"

"No! No way at all; if there was, would I be looking for you?"

The Yin Shen Palace held his forehead, knowing not what to say.

Searching for something the size of a fingertip within three thousand miles of White Cloud Continent.

This is even harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

And it’s unknown if it’s on the surface or underground.

This just makes it more difficult.

(Perhaps some don’t understand what three thousand miles in radius means, let me explain to everyone, converting three thousand miles in radius is one million seven hundred thousand square kilometers. As everyone knows, our country’s total square kilometers. This gives you an idea, right?)

Seeing the expression on the Yin Shen Palace, Bei Mingxin was also a bit helpless.

He knew the difficulty of this matter.

Moreover, his younger apprentice had just offended the Yin Shen Palace.

If it weren’t for coming by chance today, it would probably be the day of the Yixin Sect’s rebellion today.

This timing was quite unlucky.

And now, he needed the help of the Yin Shen Palace... plus, Ren Zhongyuan was the one he supported...

Bei Mingxin was indeed quite awkward.

But the Yin Shen Palace, although initially frustrated, felt completely reversed now.

His face was full of worry as if about to hang himself, yet he felt at ease inside.

You need me?

Then isn’t this matter easy to handle?

Leaving aside whether or not your request could succeed... but this attitude is enough for me to leverage for several months.

The Yin Shen Palace appeared very distressed, very vexed, but in reality, he was already contemplating clearing out Ren Zhongyuan and his faction.

Bei Mingxin had said, the relationship between the two families wasn’t at that level.

But how could the Yin Shen Palace believe that?

Outwardly, he betrayed no doubt, but internally, his vigilance was even higher than before Bei Mingxin came!

The killing intent was even stronger!

Ren Zhongyuan must certainly die!

But before the Cultivating Gu to become a God Plan, he cannot die.

However, his subordinates should be devoured one by one!

In extending the time, slicing slowly, this would actually be more beneficial for control.

As he pondered, he also spoke in a contemplative tone, "What does Lord Bei need us to do?"

Bei Mingxin said, "As far as I know, this lord’s divine consciousness avatar was sent out upon the journey to the Martial Arts Academy entrance trials. Hence, it is conjectured that this lord’s divine consciousness avatar was extinguished before Baiyun Martial Academy’s new students reached a stage where they could take missions, which means, it was extinguished within Baiyun Martial Academy."

"At that time, the lord’s divine sense was in chaos, and uncontrollable, so only the divine consciousness avatar had some thought; therefore, the Divine Formless Jade must have been randomly transmitted then."

"From this, it is concluded, it may be within Baiyun Martial Academy, or possibly anywhere within White Cloud Continent; this scope is paramount."

The Yin Shen Palace silently nodded.

"However, caution is needed because the last remnant of the divine consciousness avatar died violently, so... when searching for the Divine Formless Jade, there cannot be any high-level killing aura, otherwise this jade itself will randomly transmit away!"

Bei Mingxin said.

The Yin Shen Palace was completely frustrated: "Lord Bei, how... how do we search like this?"

Bei Mingxin spread his hands: "So, I also don’t know."

The Yin Shen Palace grimaced: "Then what shape is this Divine Formless Jade?"

Bei Mingxin spread his hands once more: "This I do not know either, no one knows!"

The Yin Shen Palace: "..."

Bei Mingxin had a bitter expression on his face: "So, I would like to ask Yin Sect Leader for more assistance."

The Yin Shen Palace waved his hands repeatedly: "Lord Bei, you purely came to torment me with this, how can it be found? It cannot be sensed, no idea what it looks like, doesn’t know where it landed, just within a three thousand mile radius of White Cloud Continent, Lord Bei, you shouldn’t be unaware of how vast a three thousand mile radius is, right?"

He frowned and put on a strained face: "Even if we are finding a needle in a haystack, we at least know it’s a needle and what it looks like; with this jade, even what its size is unknown, this is harder than finding a needle in a haystack!"

"How to find it?"

Bei Mingxin was also helpless.

If there was a choice, he wouldn’t have come to the Yin Shen Palace.

Simply offering a favor.

But this matter was a dead task pressed by the Main Sect.

"Anyway, we must strive anyhow."

Bei Mingxin said, "Everyone knows, Yin Sect Leader has significant influence within White Cloud Continent, and also has high-level inside connections, finding these things isn’t difficult."

The Yin Shen Palace grimaced: "My White Cloud Continent division was just wiped clean by Baiyun Martial Academy and the Guardian Hall... just now, Ren Zhongyuan came to trouble me, isn’t it because of this?"

"..."

Bei Mingxin clenched his teeth.

How did everything come together so precisely?

"There are still shops below."

Bei Mingxin kept persuading: "Yin Sect Leader, this is a major matter for our Main Sect, once found, Yin Sect Leader will be certain to receive great merit! And I, Bei Mingxin, in this kind of matter, will not cut corners."

"The key is, this Divine Formless Jade must be found as soon as possible, if a certain amount of time passes without finding it, if someone combines it with a divine thought, it will be like a stone sinking into the sea, never to be retrieved!"

The Yin Shen Palace finally nodded with furrowed brows in agreement: "Lord Bei, I can only say we will mobilize all forces to search, but whether we can find it, I cannot be sure."

"In this matter, it also requires the Night Demon and the Bright Three Saints Heavenly God, among their forces in White Cloud Continent, to search together."

"I’ve already approached those four families; you are the last one."

Bei Mingxin sighed in his heart.

If they could do it, would he need to seek out the Yin Shen Palace?

Precisely because they couldn’t find it.

Moreover, whatever trouble these sects caused in White Cloud Continent, they would seek help from the Yin Shen Palace.

How could it be the same?

"Fine. Our Yixin Sect will give it all."

The Yin Shen Palace agreed, then said solemnly: "Lord Bei, I have only one request."

"Please go ahead."

Bei Mingxin’s face turned somber, ready for an exploitation.

Because he knew what the request of the Yin Shen Palace would be.

"Our Yixin Sect’s internal affairs, should anything happen in the future..."

In a somber tone, the Yin Shen Palace said: "I hope Lord Bei can remain impartial."

Bei Mingxin immediately agreed: "As long as Ren Zhongyuan’s life is spared, Bei Mingxin will be deeply grateful!"

"It’s a deal!"

...

"Mu Gongfeng, deliver the order."

Immediately, the Yin Shen Palace gave the order.

All members of the Yixin Sect near the White Cloud Continent, were collectively given the same order.

Purchase all ancient jades the size of a fingertip.

All stores, unified to purchase, and also watch for hidden messages, synchronously.

At the same time, message their insiders at Baiyun Martial Academy, secretly observe within the academy for such ancient jades, and report immediately if found.

Within the academy, all with Communication Jade Plates were also given this order.

The Yin Shen Palace was also careful to leave a fallback plan.

This action made Bei Mingxin’s eyes light up.

"Once found, it will still need Lord Bei’s identification."

"Of course."

Bei Mingxin appeared frustrated: "I am the Law Enforcement Altar Master; besides me, no one can recognize this jade, it requires my Law Enforcement Altar Master’s seal to authenticate... sigh, this is why I had to come."

Bei Mingxin’s sigh was truly filled with mixed emotions.

The Yin Shen Palace also sighed: "But after this, these lines must be rebuilt."

Bei Mingxin also realized this point and said, "The Guardian might not discover it."

The Yin Shen Palace chuckled lightly: "Has Lord Bei dealt less with the Guardian? Or, do you not want to acknowledge this favor?"

Bei Mingxin sighed: "I misspoke."

The Yin Shen Palace had a grave expression: "For the great cause of the Divine Sect, our Yixin Sect... sigh!"

He sighed on the surface.

But inside, he didn’t care much.

Because orders conveyed by Mu Lin Yuan were directed at the sub-branch stores originally under White Cloud Continent Division, concerning these people, the Yin Shen Palace wouldn’t grieve if they perished.

The Night Demon wants them? Hmph... wait until you see how you’re going to rebuild.

Now, how can any of those factions be preserved just because of one Night Demon?

Once this round is done, it should basically be purged, let the Guardian clean them up.

Exchanging such people for a significant favor from Bei Mingxin; worthwhile!

...

Fang Che also received this order.

He then stared with wide eyes: "What does this mean?"
