Feifu Yangzhibaiyu

The Feifu Yangzhibaiyu is a unique artifact created by the Dakangpingbao Sect in approximately 47 LYC (around 1150 BCE), with the intention of bringing people from another world they had found linked to Tianxiajie; people who were human, and showed no indications of their world having been affected by Moliliexia - The Great Rift.
Having intently studied The Great Rift, before approaching it began to become dangerous to all who were not powerful cultivators, the monks of Dakangpingbao learned to form small rifts of their own, under their control, to other worlds. They also felt they had found the answer to what needed to be done to close The Great Rift, but didn't think that any being in Tianxiajie would ever gain what was necessary.
In an effort to ensure that The Great Rift would be closed, the monks created the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu, and sent it through a rift they had created to Earth, into the hands of the settlement that was present in the same location as they were, Sanxingdui.
Unfortunately, Sanxingdui was soon destroyed by a natural disaster, and the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu was buried along with the other artifacts and remnants of that time.

Purpose and Construction

Materials

The Feifu Yangzhibaiyu is made of mutton-fat jade, a jade that was prized in antiquity, with a wire made of steel wrapped around it, for the purposes of building and channeling the power required to use it.
On the back and the sides of the jade stone are several arrays, carefully carved by master artisans among the monks, that give it its purpose and ability to store and use power.

Arrays

The Feifu Yangzhibaiyu contains four arrays:

• the power storage array
• the transportation array
• the selection array
• the notice-me-not array

The power storage array is used to absorb yang power from its surroundings and store it in the jade, with the steel wire assisting by acting as something of a 'net', so to speak, to keep the power from bleeding out again.
The transportation array was developed to transport those people who met the criteria within a certain radius of the artifact's presence from Earth to Tianxiajie. It incorporates the array used by the Dakangpingbao monks to create minor rifts between worlds and control them.
The selection array is what determines what people will be transported by the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu; it incorporates the criteria the monks figured out (or decided) was necessary to close The Great Rift. It also requires the presence of at least two people who meet the criteria to be within the necessary radius established by the transportation array before it can trigger that array.
The notice-me-not array is tied in closely to the selection array. It ensures that unless there are at least two people who match the selection criteria present, no one will notice the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu, even though they may see it and pick it up and move it. It was only activated once it was through the rift to Earth.

History

As mentioned above, the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu was created around the year 47 LYC/1150 BCE - just under 3,200 years before the present time. It was created by the monks of the Dakangpingbao Sect, after they had studied The Great Rift for three decades.
It was then sent through a minor rift to Sanxingdui, on Earth, which was located in the same place as the Dakangpingbao Sect's monastery on Tianxiajie.
As soon as it arrived on Earth, the notice-me-not array took effect, which led the person who found it, who happened to be an artisan with some skill at bronze casting, to pick it up and bring it to his workplace without ever realizing what he was doing, or that he was holding anything.
However, not long after, Sanxingdui was destroyed in a natural disaster (that involved floods and landslides), and the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu was buried along with the town.
Then, in 2020 CE/3217 LYC, Sichuan University organized another dig at Sanxingdui, due to last two years. Dai Mingyu was one of the archaeologists involved on that dig, and it was he who found the Feifu Yangzhibaiyu, though - as with all the others - he didn't notice that he had found it.
