"Your Highness, what is this?"
Xun Zi picked up the paper on the table, his face full of confusion.
However, this item was smooth and snow-white. He just didn't know what it was used for.
In the current era, records relied on bamboo slips and cloth. However, the cost of cloth was expensive. Even wealthy families could not use cloth as paper. It was fine to use it occasionally, so bamboo slips were the mainstream.
However, with the birth of Xuan paper, this situation would definitely be broken!
"Xuan paper!"
"Xuan paper? What is this?"
Xun Zi couldn't help but feel puzzled. He carefully examined the Xuan paper in front of him and reached out to touch it.
"This Xuan paper is as smooth as jade. It is somewhat similar to cloth…"
Wait a minute!
Cloth!
Xun Zi immediately stood up excitedly." Your Highness, could it be that this Xuan paper is…"
For a moment, he did not dare to be firm in his thoughts.
If that was really the case, then the matter of the scholarly faction joining the State of Qin had to be carefully considered.
"Xuan paper has the same function as bamboo slips. It is used to write records. Moreover, the cost of Xuan paper is extremely low, and it can be used in large quantities!”
"A small piece of Xuan paper can completely record the things recorded in a bamboo scroll. Moreover, it's easy to carry and store, and can also be bound into a book!”
As the sound of Celestial Emperor Ying's voice faded, Xun Zi was completely stunned.
The ancients often used the phrase "learned and rich" to describe a knowledgeable person.
And the ancient five-cart-sized bamboo slips were only so much in the future.
"Alright! This way, there would definitely be more scholars in the world!”
"The scholarly faction should prosper!"
Xun Zi held the Xuan paper in his hands happily. Even Beiming Zi refused to take a look.
"I say, old man, you are too stingy. Didn't His Highness say that this thing is very easy to create?”
Beiming Zi's old face could not help but darken. Why was Xun Zi so stingy?
However, his heart was also greatly shaken. He was naturally clear about the meaning behind the paper. He could not imagine how many more secrets were hidden by Celestial Emperor Ying.
"Senior Xun Zi, Xuan paper is just one of them. I have something else that can replace manual labor and mass-produce books!”
Before he could even digest the tremors caused by the Xuan paper, Heavenly Emperor Ying threw out another heavy bomb!
"This…"
Xun Zi was completely speechless.
These two items alone were already shocking enough. Now that they were added together, they undoubtedly maximized the effects of these two items.
"Senior Xun Zi, as long as the scholarly faction is willing to join the State of Qin, I can hand these two things over to the scholarly faction to manage. Otherwise, I can only find someone else!”
Celestial Emperor Ying wasn't worried that the scholarly faction would reject him.
If these two items were released, it would be a fatal temptation to any sect, no matter which one it was.
The birth of Xuan paper and printing was enough for it to enter the annals of history and be widely sung. It was inevitable that it would rise.
If the scholarly faction lost this opportunity, then Celestial Emperor Ying would find someone else to replace them.
With these two things, he could completely rebuild his own scholarly faction!
Xun Zi raised his head and said solemnly," Your Highness, can you give me a day?”
Perhaps he was worried that Celestial Emperor Ying would refuse, Xun Zi continued," Your Highness, don't worry. I will convince the others no matter what!”
Xun Zi had a strong premonition that if he rejected Celestial Emperor Ying's offer, the scholarly faction would also be destroyed. Thus, he didn't dare to be careless.
"Good!"
Heavenly Emperor Ying nodded. With the scholarly faction joining in, some things would become much more convenient.
However, he wouldn't let go of some black sheep.
Beiming Zi who was standing at the side had no choice but to admit that Celestial Emperor Ying's conditions were indeed irresistible.
This made him even more curious. What conditions would Celestial Thearch Ying offer to pull the Daoists?
Thinking of this, Beiming Zi couldn't help but look forward to it.
"Your Highness, this old man is now more and more eager to see just how many secrets Your Highness is hiding.”
Celestial Thearch Ying smiled mysteriously," Then I will show Senior what the Celestial Sword is!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire world seemed to have frozen.
A terrifying sword intent emanated from Celestial Emperor Ying's body. As devas, Xun Zi and Beiming Zi felt their hair stand on end as an indescribable terror enveloped their hearts.
All of a sudden, Celestial Emperor Ying's body turned numb and lifeless.
Meanwhile, Fei Yan and Yan Lingji protected Celestial Emperor Ying's corporeal body at the first possible moment. They were vigilant of their surroundings to prevent any sneak attacks.
The Xiangxi Four Ghosts were also hiding in the dark, ready to attack at any time.
Just as Xun Zi and Beiming Zi were feeling puzzled by this scene, they saw Celestial Thearch Ying's primordial spirit fly out of his body and stare at everyone.
Boundless golden light radiated from Celestial Emperor Ying's primordial spirit, making him look like a god.
Next to him, countless swords formed by sword-intent swirled around him. Even devas would find it difficult to look directly at this terrifying sword-intent.
"This…this…"
Xun Zi and Beiming Zi stared at the scene in front of them with their mouths agape. They pointed at Celestial Thearch Ying while trembling.
Essence Soul Leaving Body!
He actually saw his primordial spirit leaving his body!
This was a technique that only the legendary Land Immortals possessed. Moreover, even Land Immortals were unable to do this to Celestial Emperor Ying.
Celestial Thearch Ying shook his head," I haven't broken through to become a Land Deity yet. However, it's not only a Land Deity who can release his primordial spirit!”
"Sword 23!"
Celestial Thearch Ying's primordial spirit stepped out and directly arrived in the void. He stepped in the void and his sword aura was extremely sharp.
A thunderous sound resounded throughout the world.
A terrifying aura instantly enveloped them. Xun Zi and Beiming Zi raised their arms with difficulty, and their expressions changed drastically.
They felt as if they were being pressed down by a huge mountain, unable to move. The time and space of the entire world were frozen.
Behind Beiming Zi, Xiaomeng's eyes widened, but there was no fear in them. Instead, they were filled with longing.
This was the peerless sword immortal that she had fantasized about!
"Sword…Sword…Twenty-Three…What sword technique is this?”
Celestial Emperor Ying's entire body emitted a golden light. He was like a small sun as sword qi revolved around him.
He stepped forward in the air, and his sword aura soared into the clouds. It was as if a god had descended, and his divine might was unstoppable!
Celestial Thearch Ying pointed at Beiming Zi and flew towards him.
The entire Small Saint Manor seemed to be frozen. Everyone and everything was frozen. They could not make a sound or move. Only their eyes were still moving.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
