The Age Of Doom: I Can Deduce Countless Ages Of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 8: Dao Treasury Pavilion

Qingxiao Sect is located on the Xianshan Five Xuan Mountains, which has five peaks. The five peaks are situated in the east, west, south, north, and center, respectively. The five peaks are named Ziting, Dengzhu, Shangling, Wanliu, and Yuming.

And the Dao Treasury Pavilion is located on the southern peak, Dengzhu Peak.

Following the route from his memory, Zhang Qingyuan rode the wind through the sea of clouds and headed straight for Dengzhu Peak.

Although he had resolved the drawbacks of the declining spiritual energy of the Dharma with the help of the Longevity Epidemic this time, his cultivation level had indeed dropped.

With his current peak cultivation level in the Epidemic Qi Realm, his speed while riding the wind was not as fast as before.

If he were still at the Soul Formation stage, Zhang Qingyuan could cross the sea of clouds and reach Dengzhu Peak with just a thought.

But unfortunately, now he could only fly slowly.

After a quarter of an hour.

Zhang Qingyuan saw a flash of red light appearing in the sea of clouds, and his face immediately lit up, accelerating his speed while riding the wind.

Countless purple palaces and yellow mansions emerged from the sea of clouds, reaching straight into the sky. The sunlight scattered on the mountains emitted a purple-red divine radiance. Even though they had lost their spiritual energy, the former immortal mountain still retained a trace of immortality.

Zhang Qingyuan accelerated his speed while riding the wind and landed on Dengzhu Peak.

As one of the five major peaks of Qingxiao Sect, Dengzhu Peak had many disciples. In Zhang Qingyuan's memory, flying swords were constantly seen on Dengzhu Peak, and powerful cultivators often escaped by transforming into rainbows.

But now...

Zhang Qingyuan stood on the stairs leading to the Dao Treasury Pavilion, looking at the dilapidated buildings covered in weeds and devoid of immortality, and couldn't help but sigh.

After the arrival of the Dharma era, some disciples secretly took away everything they could take, even the glazed tiles and walls of the palaces on the mountain.

He stepped on the white jade stairs that had lost their spiritual energy, and he could hear the creaking sound as he stepped on them.

Zhang Qingyuan looked down and saw that the surface of the white jade stairs was already covered with cracks.

The material that had lost its spiritual energy had also become fragile.

Step by step, Zhang Qingyuan walked up the white jade stairs, and the appearance of the Dao Treasury Pavilion also emerged.

A magnificent purple-gold building appeared from the top of the stairs.

Zhang Qingyuan stepped onto the top floor of the stairs, and at this moment, the entire appearance of the building entered his sight.

The once radiant purple-gold building had become extremely plain, with the vermilion door half-closed. Many golden nails had been pried off.

Seeing the pitiful state of the Dao Treasury Pavilion, Zhang Qingyuan could only pray silently, hoping that there would still be something he could deduce inside.

Zhang Qingyuan pushed open the vermilion door and walked into the Dao Treasury Pavilion.

As soon as he opened the door, thick dust flew everywhere.

Zhang Qingyuan covered his nose and waved his robe, using the wind to disperse the dust.

He saw the interior of the Dao Treasury Pavilion and frowned.

The originally neat bookshelves were now crooked, and there were broken jade slips scattered all over the floor. Occasionally, he could see some intact jade slips.

There were even traces of spell attacks left on the floor and desks in the pavilion.

"What a bunch of bandits!"

Zhang Qingyuan couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Since the arrival of the Dharma era, order had collapsed, and many disciples had evil thoughts in their hearts. They took away everything that could be taken.

These things on the ground were all unimportant cultivation techniques.

Zhang Qingyuan could only pray silently in his heart now, hoping that there would still be some cultivation techniques he could deduce here.

Instead of searching from the outside, Zhang Qingyuan first went upstairs to the attic.

The Hundred Herbs Scripture showed white.

Based on his experience playing games in his previous life, Zhang Qingyuan guessed that it might be a grading of quality.

Would using higher-level cultivation techniques allow him to deduce more things?

Having tasted the sweetness of deduction, Zhang Qingyuan's speed in going upstairs increased slightly.

However, when he looked at the mess upstairs and the destroyed storage platform for advanced cultivation techniques, his expression became visibly unpleasant.

Zhang Qingyuan searched the upstairs repeatedly and confirmed that there was nothing left. He couldn't help but curse in his heart.

In the future, if he sees these traitors, make sure to sew his head onto his butt!

Zhang Qingyuan grumbled as he returned to the first floor.

The first floor mostly stored low-level cultivation techniques and some records of immortal realms.

Now Zhang Qingyuan had no choice but to see if there were any remaining cultivation techniques that he could deduce.

His gaze kept scanning the ground, searching for intact jade slips.

After about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Qingyuan's gaze finally landed on a faint white light.

[Basic Refining Art (White)]

[Possible deduction directions: Cyber Immortal Era, Mechanical Immortal Era]

Upon seeing this information, Zhang Qingyuan's eyes immediately lit up.

He quickly walked over and picked up the jade slip.

Cyber Immortal Era, Mechanical Immortal Era...

This time, there were actually two options!

A glimmer of excitement appeared in Zhang Qingyuan's eyes.

This meant that the scope of deduction was not limited to the Biochemical Immortal Era, but also included other eras.

But which era should he choose now?

Zhang Qingyuan knew from the Hundred Herbs Classic, which could only be deduced once, that he could only deduce something once.

But he didn't know if the same rule applied to this instance.

As Zhang Qingyuan's thoughts flickered, his attention returned to the options in front of him.

[Cyber Immortal Era]

[Mechanical Immortal Era]

Both of these eras were unfamiliar territories for Zhang Qingyuan, just like the Biochemical Era.

However, Zhang Qingyuan did know the meanings of Cyber and Mechanical.

Cyber referred to cybernetics, advanced technology, virtual space, and so on, while Mechanical was much more straightforward, referring to certain special structural tools.

Both belonged to the field of technology, but one focused more on the spiritual aspect, while the other focused more on reality.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Qingyuan chose the Cyber Immortal Era.

"Confirm deduction!"

Zhang Qingyuan silently recited.

The content on the panel began to change.

[Start deducing the Cyber Immortal Era]

[Current deduction progress: 0/100]

At this moment, the jade slip in his hand emitted white mist, similar to last time, but this time the mist contained faint purple patterns.

Just like last time, those purple patterns climbed up his cheeks.

In front of Zhang Qingyuan's eyes appeared a picture similar to the Biochemical Immortal Era.

On the deduction diagram of the Cyber Immortal Era, a strange-tech statue composed of purple crystal pipes and red metal decorations floated at the top, with its electronic eyes overlooking a cube-like space.

The cube space kept rotating, and each rotation revealed new projections.

And the picture wasn't over yet!

On the left and right of the purple statue, two crystal heads in cyan and black appeared, and at this moment, the cube projected different images towards both sides.

The three crystal heads of different colors were connected to the purple statue's body by golden chains, forming a tripartite unity!

"What do these deduction diagrams represent?"

Zhang Qingyuan stared carefully at the deduction diagram in front of him, not wanting to miss any details.

He could feel that these things were important!
