These rumors had naturally spread to the ears of the four great Heavenly Kings and the twelve great marshals, and flowed into the mouths of the Celestial Emperor in the end.
As for what these people were thinking, no one knew. However, the morning assembly was still open, and the four great heavenly kings and the rest were also here. They would even occasionally mention the immortal bones, as if they were trying to trace the location of the immortal bones.
Right now, the usage of the immortal bone had already been completely revealed. It was extremely possible that it could allow a person to comprehend the mysteries of immortality. Who wouldn't be moved by it?
Many of the warriors above Divine Soul Realm felt regret, regret that they were not there that day, otherwise the immortal bone would have been theirs. How could it be possible for them to not be able to find it after staring at the people below?
Within the Heaven's Palace's exquisite garden, the Celestial Emperor stood by a pond with his hands behind his back. He sprinkled some bait onto the golden scales while listening to the respectful report from the general director, Sima, with an expressionless face.
After listening, he pondered for a long time before saying, "Do you think that the undying bone is real?"
After pondering for a moment, he said in a low voice, "This old servant doesn't dare to speak nonsense. But, whether or not I'm lying, since I've appeared, then I have to be in the hands of His Majesty in order to protect the peace of the world. Otherwise, if I stay out in the open, it's hard to say whether or not no one will take the opportunity to cause trouble outside!"
"Seize the opportunity to cause trouble..." A cold light flashed across the Heavenly Emperor's eyes as he said indifferently, "Have there been many disturbances during this period? Didn't the other side say that they had been blocked? Why are there so many people attacking our people? Are the four great heavenly kings all useless? "
When these words came out, cold sweat broke out on Steward Si's forehead, but he didn't dare to answer.
The Heavenly Emperor could scold the four Heavenly Kings at will, but he could not comment further. The Heavenly Emperor's thoughts could not be fathomed, and if he were to say anything wrong, it would cause the Heavenly Emperor to be suspicious.
"Do you think that the item has really landed in the hands of one of those four fellows?" The Celestial Emperor suddenly said.
However, in the end, he did not dare hide anything, cupped his hands, and bowed as he said, "This old servant does not know, but the four great heavenly kings almost obtained this information together with us that day. It would be somewhat impossible to say that they were able to make it in time, unless they were in the vicinity that day! However, according to the City Lord's report, the martial artists who came to take those two fellows away were extremely powerful, at least in the late stage of Divine Soul Realm. However, their faces were covered, so he was unable to confirm their identities! "
"Cover your face …" "Humph!"
The Celestial Emperor snorted coldly as a hint of malevolence flashed across his eyes. He suddenly asked, "Is that old man Dongfang Shuo from the Heavenly Mystery Manor here yet?"
"Your Majesty, he should be arriving soon!" After replying, the general director hurriedly took out the star bell and began to ask.
A moment later, he smiled and said: "Your majesty is wise. Palace Chief Dongfang has just arrived at the Heavenly Palace right in front of the great hall. Would you like to summon him over?"
"Call me over!" He threw the last of the fish food into the pond, clapped his hands and returned to the pavilion to sit down, calming himself down and drinking the tea.
A moment later, an old man with a transcendent demeanor was led into the courtyard by a beautiful maid.
The maid stopped and the old man continued walking. Finally, he came outside of the pavilion and looked at Steward Si and the Heavenly Emperor!
"Greetings, your Majesty!" The old man bowed respectfully.
"Haha, no need to be so courteous, beloved one!" The Celestial Emperor smiled and raised his hand. "I've asked you to come here because I have something I need you to do!"
"Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty!" This official will definitely not refuse it! " Dongfang Shuo quickly said.
"It is impossible to say anything even if you wish to die. I have heard that your calculations are extremely powerful. I would like to experience it today. Is that possible?" The Celestial Emperor smiled at Dongfang Shuo.
Dongfang Shuo, who was standing down, was stunned. He looked up at the Celestial Emperor in surprise.
In the eyes of the heaven and earth, they were merely existences similar to divine sticks. People with the strength and influence of a Heavenly Emperor didn't need them at all, and that was also the reason why Dongfang Shuo, although his cultivation had clearly reached the middle stage of the Divine Soul Realm, was only a Palace Chief. Even Star Lord wasn't able to mix in with him as well.
Being surprised is being surprised, since the Heavenly Emperor has already allowed him to display his skills, how could he dare to reject, he immediately cupped his hands and said: "Yes, this subject will definitely do his best, but, what does Your Majesty want to calculate? Is there a primer? "
The primer was something that was related to the divination object. The Heavenly Emperor naturally did not have it, so he immediately shook his head and said, "I need you to calculate the location of the immortal bone for me. As for the primer, there is none!"
"Undying bone?" Dongfang Shuo's expression changed as he muttered in his heart.
He really did not expect that the Heavenly Emperor would actually summon him here just to make him guess the location of the undying bone. Initially, he was wondering if the Heavenly Emperor had already gotten his hands on the undying bone, but since he was here now, based on the current situation, he should not have gotten his hands on it yet.
If even the Heavenly Emperor couldn't obtain it, then who could?
Dongfang Shuo's mind was full of twists and turns, while his expression was also changing between bright and dark.
"What is it? "Difficult?" The Celestial Emperor narrowed his eyes and asked plainly.
The moment he said that, Dongfang Shuo was shocked. He quickly said, "It is indeed difficult, immortal bone. Since it involves such a magical object, I can't say that I have a definite chance. But I can try my best!"
"Alright, you can give it a try!" The Celestial Emperor looked at Dongfang Shuo with interest.
Since the Celestial Emperor said so, how could Dongfang Shuo dare to say anything else? He immediately told the Celestial Emperor that he needed the location and time.
The Celestial Emperor naturally agreed to this.
The venue was this courtyard. Sending someone to arrange a praying mat for Dongfang Shuo could be considered a seat.
Dongfang Shuo sat on the praying mat and took out another turtle shell from his storage ring.
The tortoise shell was about the size of a millstone and its entire body was a sparkling white. Under the rays of the sun, it was shining brightly. It was obvious that it was no ordinary item.
"It's actually a Divine Soul Realm ranked demon beast tortoise shell!" The Celestial Emperor's eyes lit up as he quietly continued to read.
After Dongfang Shuo took out the tortoise shell, he took out another eight copper coins and placed them in his hands. Then, he casually threw the eight copper coins into the tortoise shell.
After waiting for a moment, he grabbed another handful of hay from his storage ring.
That thing seemed to be made of hay, but it was emitting a faint spiritual energy. It was obviously not some ordinary hay.
Dongfang Shuo suddenly waved his hand and the hay in his hand ignited without wind and was thrown into the tortoise shell.
At the same time, Dongfang Shuo closed his eyes and quickly formed hand seals with both of his hands. He even started chanting something.
