South Clarity Garden, Taking the Girls to Crush Some Noobs

"Each of you take one step in one of the four directions: east, south, west, or north," Zhao Xing said.

Xia Jing, Long Xiao, Chen Shijie, Ji Ziyun did as instructed.

The four of them walked east together, and Zhao Xing observed the pillars of their fortunes.

Chen Shijie's luck turned bad, and there were signs that his fortune was about to fall apart.

Ji Ziyun was the same, only less so than Old Chen.

Long Xiao and Xia Jing were completely unaffected; in fact, some Purple Light even fell into their bodies.

"The Dongnai Inverted Peak Mountain Range, which is the place we visited before, is now being fenced off, and the population is increasing. The eastern part of the area has become dangerous."

"However, Xia Jing and Long Xiao's fortunes in the east still exist, but they show signs of weakening," Zhao Xing pondered.

As for Old Chen and Ji Ziyun, if they continue to stay in the Inverted Peak Mountain Range, ominous signs will arise.

Zhao Xing then looked at the other locations of the four people.

"The north and west are auspicious directions, while the south is a mix of good and bad fortune, requiring one to turn danger into safety."

To the south is Scarlet Lake; we'll leave that place for now.

Zhao Xing calculated that the west corresponds to the Tai hexagram, which signifies smooth sailing and various periods of good fortune.

The north is represented by the number 92: there is danger in Kan, so seek only small gains.

Normal people should go to Pengli Marsh in the west, because good luck is associated with that place.

Zhao Xing is determined to take the treasures of the Eternal Night Sea, and the sooner he takes them while there are fewer people around, the better.

As for Pengli Marsh, the treasures there are too scattered and of much greater value than those in the Eternal Night Sea.

"If there is danger in the Kan (a concept in Feng Shui), but the desire is not great, there will be no danger."

"My request is quite grand, and I'm afraid it will cause some trouble. However, the longer I delay, the bigger the trouble will become. It would be better to go to the Eternal Night Sea first."

"With the combined luck of the five of us, plus my experience, we should be able to withstand it." After some thought, Zhao Xing finally decided to go to the Eternal Night Sea first.

The other four had no objections, so they immediately steered the flying boat northward.

"It will take at least a day and a half to get to the Eternal Night Sea, so I'll rest for a bit first."

"Wow? That's a rare sight," Xia Jing said. "Aren't you someone who never sleeps?"

"There's no need to roll it up if you've already found a treasure."

"Long Xiao, when you come to the Forget Sorrow Stele area, remember to go around it and follow the map given by the Military Realm."

"When you encounter a restricted area, show your access permissions."

"No problem." Long Xiao nodded.

Why not let Old Chen drive the airship? That guy has bad luck; I'm afraid he might accidentally drive it into some dangerous place.

After giving his instructions, Zhao Xing went into the cabin and closed his eyes to sleep.

In reality, it is Entering the Dream, reviewing past life memories, and recalling the many benefits of the Eternal Night Sea.

The main body flew north in the Qilin Flying Boat, while the Straw Man Clone doll clone was still at the Lingxiu Hot Spring.

When the main body broke through the Heavenly Gate, Ji Ziyun had already absorbed the fire luck.

However, since Murong Xue had not yet come out, they could only wait.

When the deity entered the Heavenly Gate Deduction.

Murong Xue emerged from the hot spring and looked at Zhao Xing's retreating figure on the hillside, her gaze softening considerably.

A relaxing bath is a benefit not everyone can enjoy.

If Zhao Xing hadn't led the way, she probably wouldn't have found such a wonderful place.

However, when her gaze fell on Ji Ziyun, Murong Xue unconsciously curled her lips.

You slut!

You were shouting so loudly just now!

"She was dressed provocatively and acted dissolutely before, but now she's pretending to be dignified... Hmph, no wonder she taught her disciples." Murong Xue was quite disdainful. She stayed a few miles away from Ji Ziyun and quietly waited for Zhao Xing "come online".

Zhao Xing didn't log on, so the two of them waited without exchanging any words.

Because Ji Ziyun knew Murong Xue's identity, she had no interest in paying attention to her.

Murong Xue also knew that Ji Ziyun was Princess Youruo's disciple.

The relationship between the elders has continued into the next generation, with them disliking each other.

After Zhao Xing and his group finished blowing up Qifeng, they headed to the Eternal Night Sea.

Zhao Xing's Straw Man Clone reappeared and stood up from the hilltop.

"Senior Brother." Ji Ziyun sat down to meditate next to Zhao Xing.

The distance is neither too far nor too close, neither too intimate nor too distant; it's just the right balance.

"Hmm. You're all out?"

"I'm out. Thank you for your blessing, Senior Brother," Ji Ziyun said, cupping her hands in greeting.

Zhao Xing couldn't help but take another look at Ji Ziyun; indeed, her attire and demeanor were quite different from before.

"Thank you, Lord Zhao." Seeing Zhao Xing come online, Murong Xue flew over as well.

"Mm." Zhao Xing nodded.

"Senior Brother, where to next?" Ji Ziyun asked.

"We'll talk about it later," Zhao Xing without further explanation.

He planned to take the two girls for a stroll Inverted Peak Mountain Range, but he didn't intend to bring them along for any major opportunities.

A slightly less favorable opportunity, however, could offer some guidance.

The Ten Yang Grotto-Heaven has many benefits; even a small amount would be enough to feed these two women.

However, many areas of the Inverted Peak Mountain Range have now been fenced off and have been marked with Forget Sorrow Stele.

So Zhao Xing is now waiting for his other clone to arrive.

After passing through the Heavenly Gate, Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet, though not making a significant breakthrough, still advanced from the Fourth-Turn to the Sixth-Turn!

The more advanced the Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet progresses, the more clones can be controlled. After reaching the Sixth-Turn, Zhao Xing can create eighteen Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet.

Of the eighteen Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet, Zhao Xing took half, meaning there are still eight on the way.

Murong Xue is suspected to be Old Liu's daughter, Ji Ziyun is Princess Youruo's Beloved Disciple.

Both of them had only recently entered the Seventh Grade, so he had to keep an eye on them and make sure nothing went wrong.

"Let me use your Earth Mirror." While waiting, Zhao Xing didn't stay idle. He asked Ji Ziyun for the Earth Mirror and began to check the real-time situation.

At this point, there is a special map list in the Earth Mirror.

The screen displays numerous small maps.

[Jade Curtain Mountain: Level 4 Berserk]

Area: 7,000 square kilometers

[Minimum requirement for exploration: Intermediate Inspector]

[Maximum allowed Ranked Realm: Rank Sixth Rank (excluding members of top-tier exploration teams)]

[WARNING: This area is subject to the Crisis Exploration Regulations. Explorers should assess the danger themselves.]

[Should Forget Sorrow Stele be erected? No]

[Known Information: Jade Curtain Mountain is suspected to have produced thirty-seven kinds of Heavenly Spirit Essence]

[Number of people in this area: 35]

[This intelligence was updated at 2:45 PM on the 16th.]

"There aren't many people yet; there are only thirty-five people in Jade Curtain Mountain."

"The Military Realm has gradually opened up regional intelligence, so they're not charging people admission fees for nothing." Zhao Xing looked at the Earth Mirror.

The so-called "levels of rage" refer to the degree of dramatic change in the world.

For example, the mountain peak that Zhao Xing had previously seen exploded after being struck by lightning.

That was the dramatic change in the world that occurred during the process of the Grotto-Heaven's ascension.

Based on the level classification, Zhao Xing estimated that it should be at level six berserk.

This was later confirmed; they found the "Giant Spirit Tree" nearby and obtained a sixth-tier fruit and a Ganoderma lucidum.

Of course, berserk level and treasure level are not directly related.

For example, the Lingxiu Hot Spring where Zhao Xing is currently located is only at level three of the violent state, and the surrounding anomalies are just some strong winds, small earthquakes, and so on.

However, the Fire Luck Spiritual Elegance Spring is qualified to be classified as a sixth-tier treasure land.

Because the area is large enough and the number of people is large enough, even the early Military Realm did not fully understand this.

After Zhao Xing and the other four finished smoking, the two women took over, and there was still plenty left.

It can easily accommodate at least forty or fifty people for a soak.

Different areas have different entry requirements.

For example, the lowest Ranked Realm and the highest Ranked Realm. Here, rank does not refer to Official Rank.

Of course, Zhao Xing didn't have this worry; he was a member of a top-tier exploration team and could go anywhere.

Throughout the entire Ten Yang Grotto-Heaven, there will be no more than fifty top-tier exploration teams, and the total number of people will not exceed one thousand.

This is why Zhao Xing insisted that Old Liu create a top-level exploration team.

If a region uses the Crisis Exploration Regulations, then fighting is not prohibited. Generally, if this clause is in place, then the Forget Sorrow Stele will not be erected.

Setting up Forget Sorrow Stele worries is quite costly.

In particular, the area of Grotto-Heaven World is too large. Even a small instance can easily cover tens of thousands of square kilometers. Enclosing the entire area with the Forget Sorrow Stele would be too costly.

The entire Gucheng is only over 3,000 square kilometers, while Jade Curtain Mountain alone covers more than 7,000 square kilometers.

Zhao Xing browsed through the various "small copies" of the Inverted Peak Mountain Range.

Finally, a location was chosen.

[South Clarity Garden: Level 3 Frenzy]

Area: 3,000 square kilometers

[Minimum Requirements for Exploration: Junior Inspector]

[Maximum allowed Ranked Realm: Seventh Grade (excluding members of top-tier exploration teams)]

[WARNING: This area is subject to the Crisis Exploration Regulations. Explorers should assess the danger themselves.]

[Should Forget Sorrow Stele be erected? No]

[Known Information: The South Clarity Garden is suspected to have produced seven kinds of Heavenly Spirit Essence]

Population in this area: 1523

[This intelligence was updated at 2:45 PM on the 16th.]

"The South Clarity Garden has many treasures, and although there are many people, they are all just mediocre."

With an area of over 3,000 square kilometers, it is already the size of a top-tier county.

Only a little over a thousand, which isn't a lot.

After all, the Ten Yang Grotto-Heaven itself has many ' Junior Explorer ', which is equivalent to the number of Senior Explorer.

The initial qualification is relatively easy to obtain. A week has passed since the opening of the Grotto-Heaven, and a large number of Junior Explorer begun to take action.

Intermediate and Senior Explorer still few in number.

"Even if a conflict occurs, there's not much pressure," Zhao Xing assessed.

He has nine straw figures, each with its own unique characteristics, and they incorporate various magical techniques.

The Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet Man can also create other straw men, such as the Divine-Brave Flying Sacrificial Explosion Straw Figure.

Nine Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet can easily create a whole army of straw figures.

Running these small dungeons is considered "carrying a girl to stomp a noob".

"We're going to South Clarity Garden," Zhao Xing said. "We'll set off as soon as my clone arrives."

"Okay, Senior Brother." Ji Ziyun listened obediently.

Fifteen minutes later, a Arrowfish Flying Boat arrived, and eight clones jumped down from it.

"So many?" Murong Xue was somewhat shocked. "He's only Sixth Rank, yet he can control nine Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet?"

Murong Xue also understands the Straw Man Art, and her level is even quite high; she has already mastered the fusion of two techniques.

She knew all too well the difficulty of creating the Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet.

She may never achieve the perfect unity of the five methods in her lifetime.

But Zhao Xing was already able to control nine Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet!

Moreover, each straw figure seemed to have a slightly different aura and possess different magical effects.

"Nine straw figures?" Ji Ziyun was quite knowledgeable, and she immediately understood that Zhao Xing's previous "disconnection" was all an act.

How could someone who can control nine straw men possibly experience a "disconnection"?

He was clearly just making excuses for her.

This further fueled Ji Ziyun's fighting spirit.

"You all board the flying boat first," Zhao Xing instructed casually.

Then, the nine Ten Thousand Laws Clone all arrived above the Lingxiu Hot Spring.

The Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet only knows two advanced spells: "Heaven's Eye Art" and "Sleepy Bug," which are spells that take effect based on the Fate Soul.

Because the core control of the straw man lies in the power of his Fate Soul.

However, the other spells that were incorporated also reached the intermediate level of perfection.

After soaking in the Lingxiu Hot Spring, one needs to destroy their traces, because Zhao Xing doesn't know whose opportunity they actually stole.

Most wealthy and powerful families have fortune tellers or Fate Master, like Liang Ruohai, or they consult with them.

He will have many opportunities ahead, but despite having the [Heaven's Mandate Profound Concealment], he still needs to be careful.

Now that the Grotto-Heaven has been upgraded, the world is undergoing dramatic changes, constantly destroying itself and being reborn.

Even if he doesn't destroy the spiritual site, the site may be reset, other spiritual sites may be born, or it may disappear completely.

If someone with ill intentions targets him or someone close to him, keeping them around would be aiding the enemy.

As for handing it over? Zhao Xing had already obtained a batch of ' Millennium Cold Crystal ', so he didn't need to complete the 'Explorer Mission' for a while. Besides, handing over the location information wouldn't help much in completing the Explorer Mission.

The Military Realm doesn't need explorers to submit location information. Back in the Pacifying Barbarians War to Pacify the Barbarians, "information" earned the fewest battle merits. The reason is the same now; with a calculation from the Creation Disc, one can know the birth and death of every place.

In the present day, land is being claimed everywhere in the Ten Yang Grotto-Heaven, and fighting is no longer prohibited. Most people are going crazy.

Because it concerns whether they can inherit their fathers' rights. If they succeed, the Noble Families will continue for a thousand years; if they fail, the Noble Families will have no successors and its rights will be taken back by Emperor Jing!

"The Five Elements Earth Splitting!"

Nine Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet simultaneously unleash the Five Elements Earth Splitting Art!

Although the Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet does not possess any concept of luck, the effects of its spells still inherit the Blessing of Luck of the original body.

The nine straw figures simultaneously unleashed the Five Elements Earth Splitting Art, a mid-level perfected gambling tactic, immediately creating a huge commotion.

"Rumble~~~~~"

The valley collapsed, and the hot springs boiled.

The terrain and landforms were completely altered, and massive amounts of subterranean fire erupted.

Before long, the Lingxiu Hot Spring had disappeared.

"What? This... this is the Five Elements Earth Splitting Art?" Murong Xue couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

That was amazing!

She never imagined that the Five Elements Earth Splitting Art would have such great power!

"If his Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet is this powerful, how powerful must the real person be?" Murong Xue was also the Agricultural Official.

As the saying goes, "the expert sees the details, "Murong Xue immediately realized that Zhao Xing was no ordinary person.

No wonder he was able to become Liu Tianning's personal disciple!

Although Ji Ziyun was an amateur, she could tell from the commotion at Lingxiu Hot Spring and Murong Xue's reaction that Zhao Xing was definitely very strong!

"He has truly mastered the art of making straw figures for the Liu Clan!" Ji Ziyun, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Zhao Xing's retreating figure.

Zhao Xing returned to the flying boat, completely ignoring the shocked looks on the two women's faces.

In his view, this was nothing more than a minor trick.

"Who among you can fly a flying boat?" Old Master Zhao, now a bodyguard, couldn't possibly also be a driver.

It would be too indulgent to spoil someone by not doing all the work themselves.

"Senior Brother, I can do it." Ji Ziyun immediately spoke up, not wanting to miss any opportunity to show off. "I won first place in the flying boat competition at the Azure Water Daoist Academy."

"Oh?" Zhao Xing Xinggao glanced at Ji Ziyun, thinking, "She's quite the experienced one."

"Okay, then you can do it."

"Murong Xue, you're in charge of keeping watch. Call me if anything happens or when we get to the destination." After saying this, Old Master Zhao logged off without waiting for Murong Xue's agreement.

Controlling clones also takes a lot of effort; it's best to make it as easy as possible.

"Yes." Murong Xue didn't have the airs of a spoiled young lady; otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen the path of Agricultural Official. She had also walked on the dirt.

It immediately Rising Wind in the wind and flew around, acting as a warning.

One hour later.

Ji Ziyun said to those behind her, "Senior Brother, we've arrived."

Inside the airship cabin, the nine Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet suddenly came to life and walked out together.

After observing the location and terrain, the main body, thousands of miles away, calculated with his fingers and then pointed to the clone, saying, "Southeast, four or five bends, one-third of the standard speed, one hundred meters altitude."

"Yes." Ji Ziyun immediately maneuvered the flying boat in an arc, acting as Zhao Xing requested.

She glanced back, and Zhao Xing remained motionless again.

After flying for about fifteen minutes, Murong Xue suddenly spoke up, "A Blood Shadow Boat is coming towards us."

Ji Ziyun glanced behind her and asked Murong Xue, "How many people are there? If it's not many, we can handle it ourselves and don't need to trouble Senior Brother."
