"What will it cost me?"

Yan Wu's voice was very low, and he was sure that the old monster in the dark could hear it.

The young master of the Divine Fist Manor once saw a master who had reached the pinnacle of martial arts. The sound of mosquitoes and flies could be heard within a ten-foot radius.

"You're great. There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Zhou Yi secretly raised Yan Wu's evaluation and said slowly, "I need you to join Brocade Guard, do everything possible to climb up and become an official of Qianhu!"

Brocade Guard Qianhu is in charge of the government's intelligence. His official position is not as good as that of a governor, but his power is not much worse.

"Senior, do you want to control the imperial court?"

Yan Wu Only by guessing the old monster's thoughts can you save your life and get more benefits.

When my father taught martial arts during his lifetime, he told many anecdotes about the world, the most common of which was that the old monster had a weird temper and a surly personality, so you must be careful when dealing with him.

"What is there in this mere imperial court that I covet? The throne is a treasure in the eyes of others, but in my eyes it is nothing more than bullshit!"

Zhou Yi's voice was slightly crazy. "The only person in this world worthy of my pursuit is a student Venerable Immortal!"

Yan Wu heard the words and his mind went crazy. Through every sentence and every word, he tried to draw a portrait of the old monster in the dark.

Strong in strength, arrogant and arrogant, with no intention of power. His longevity is short, and he pins his hopes on the illusory Path of Immortality...

"Similar to the twilight emperor in the history books!"

Yan Wu calmed down for a moment, thinking he had figured out the old monster's status, and asked, "I am willing to obey the orders of my seniors. I wonder what I can get?"

As he finished speaking, his head was hit hard and he lost consciousness instantly.

A shadow fell into the prison, Zhou Yi put his palm on Yan Wu's back, and Mana came out of the body, running along the meridians and muscles.

After a while.

Yan Wu woke up leisurely, smelled a fishy smell, and found that his whole body was covered in greasy and sticky filth.

The limbs are strong and the meridians are smooth.

"Marrow Cleansing!"

Yan Wu immediately activated his family's internal energy, and the efficiency was about 20 to 30% faster than before. Don't underestimate the difference, it was enough to bridge the gap between ordinary people and geniuses.

Divine Fist Manor has inherited the marrow-cleansing decoctions and secret techniques accumulated by five generations for more than a hundred years. Yan Wu has used them since childhood, but the combined effect is not as good as this time.

"Junior will join Brocade Guard as soon as possible."

Yan Wu suppressed his original small thoughts. The secret strength of the old monster was so terrifying that it was difficult to fathom. It was most likely the legendary Innate Grandmaster.

"Very good! When you become one of the Brocade Guard households, you will start to explore the local strange objects, strange people, and strange places, compile them into a book, and I will go and get them."

Zhou Yi said seductively, "As long as it is really related to Path of Immortality, you can get the magical secret method from me. Even Innate Grandmaster, it is not impossible!"

"Juniors will try their best!"

Yan Wu asked cautiously, "Can I know the name of my senior?"

Zhou Yi was silent for a long time and said quietly.

"King Samsara!"

No one can imagine that King Samsara is a eunuch, and it is also impossible for anyone to imagine that King Samsara is a jailer who delivers food!

Yan Wu said respectfully, "Junior Divine Fist Manor Yan Wu, my parents died at the hands of Black Riders. In the future, I will be avenged, so I will let you follow my destiny."

"Jiejiejiejie..."

The words of loyalty failed to win praise, but instead attracted a series of strange laughter.

"I have seen too much loyalty and betrayal, so I never believe in repaying one's life with one's life. Only consistent interests are eternal. Someday if you think you are strong, you can try to challenge me, but if you lose, you will die!"

"Yes."

Yan Wu's heart tightened, and he didn't dare to try any more.

A twelve prisons.

The young man Ye Xiong was huddled in the corner of the cell, with a bruised nose and swollen face, and bruises all over his body.

In the cell, the weak are the strongest, and those who are weak will be bullied into sleeping next to the toilet. What's more, the gang that Ye Xiong belongs to has a grudge against the strongest person in the prison.

"Cough cough cough..."

He coughed a few times, and because his lungs were severely injured, a few drops of blood sprayed out.

At this time.

An indistinguishable voice sounded in Ye Xiong's ears.

"Want to take revenge?"

"Think!"

Ye Xiong answered without hesitation that if he were beaten by his enemies for a few more days, he would probably die in prison.

"What are you willing to give?"

"Everything!"

"Jiejiejie, very good..."

A mantra passed into his ears, and the essence of its martial arts was far beyond the skills of Ye Xiong's gang.

"From now on, your life belongs to me, King Samsara!"

Zhou Yi's voice was ethereal and it was difficult to discern the direction. "Little guy, that person's acupuncture point has been blocked, you can try the wonderful features of Heaven Devouring Divine Art."

Ye Xiong looked at the only straw mat in the prison. The strong man who had been snoring loudly became as quiet as a dead man.

"Thank you King Samsara!"

"Want to have power?"

"Do you want to dominate the world and be invincible?"

"Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly... live?"

"Yes, or no!"

The seductive voice, like a ghost, echoes throughout Heavenly Prison.

The desires of people in the martial arts world far exceed those of ordinary people. They practice martial arts not to strengthen their bodies, but to pursue drinking, sex, wealth, or greed for fame and power.

When an opportunity comes, no one will give up, even if they make a deal with the devil from hell!

The idle chess piece fell.

Zhou Yi will not pay attention to its follow-up, only give it the capital to start, and will not rush to be a nanny.

After all, there are not many others in Heavenly Prison, and there are people everywhere with deep hatred.

One group died, and another group was recruited.

Every year, three or five Marrow Cleansings who are pleasing to the eye and have good qualifications are selected, and those with low talents are taught magic skills, and there will always be no shortage of Chess Pieces.

"Cast the net widely and catch more fish. Even if 99% of Chess Piece die, if you catch one, you will be rewarded a hundredfold."

Zhou Yi allowed Chess Piece to develop on its own. After staying at Brocade Guard for ten or twenty years, who would still suspect that they were someone's spies.

The strength of martial arts has increased, at least there are hundreds of households in the local area, and his subordinates Imperial Bodyguards are all over the prefectures and counties, and no strange people or objects can escape supervision.

"This plan may be crude, but if we extend the time line, I will stand at Invincible Position."

Zhou Yi understands that his biggest enemy is not Celestial Buddhas, Gods, and Demons, but the endless loneliness.

Celestial Buddhas, Gods, and Demons can eventually be transcended. As time goes by, loneliness will become more and more difficult to restrain.

For example, if spiritual energy is thin in the ordinary world, Mana grows as slowly as a snail, and cannot make any progress for ten or twenty years. You will definitely yearn to enter Cultivation World, but rushing in rashly is no different than committing suicide.

This is just the Qi Refining realm, and it can take up to a few hundred years to reach its peak. Once you break through to a higher realm, and you can't break through the bottleneck for hundreds or thousands of years, do you want to take risks and compete for opportunities?

"It is impossible to take risks. It is impossible to take risks in this life. You will only use time to hone your bottlenecks."

Zhou Yi The most indispensable thing is time, and the biggest enemy is also time. You must endure the long loneliness and the boredom of slow progress in strength. If you don't fight, you will not lose!

"As for how to overcome loneliness... I can only refer to the old monsters in the past life books. The one who is most similar to me is Emperor Shitian!

"The same longevity is endless, the same qualifications are poor, so we must take Emperor Shitian as a warning. Don't engage in disputes of will, don't strive to be the best in the world, keep a low profile and be cautious in doing things."

"Even if there is a powerful enemy in this world, you can survive him to death and then dance on his grave!"

Zhou Yi Summarizes the death lessons of immortals, examines myself three times every day, and repeatedly warns myself to stay steady and not to wander.
