Ji Si's New Trick, Old Master Zhao Flies into a Rage!
Name: Yun Tian Dao
[Occupation: Agricultural Official, Fate Master]
[Qi Yun: Yan Jiu]
[Physical Body: Early Stage of the Nascent Realm]
[Divine Soul: Early Stage of the Nascent Realm]
[Dojo: Fifth Rank of the Realm Star]
Age: 202457
[Remaining life span: 588101]
[Cultivation Technique: Purple Yang, First Level]
[Origin Law: Small Four Seasons Weather Change Fist, Yun Tian Dao, Wasteland Wind, Profound Heaven Thunder, Resurrection Wind, Spiritual Qi Turns to Rain, Four Pillars Profound Gate, Tomb Raiding Underground Palace [Void Law: Mountain and Sea Grand Luck (a self-created Fate Spell, not actually reaching the level of supernatural power)]
[Minor Divine Ability: Star Dou Cloud, Starry Eyes, Heaven-Splitting (Abnormal, all three supernatural powers can only be used in a stable void)]
Zhao Xing glanced at Yun Tian Dao's information.
Because Yun Tian Dao also possesses a Void-level Fate Spell, he is considered to have dual professions.
Furthermore, his actual age is 200,000 years, which is due to the Epoch House.
After breaking through to the Source Origin Realm, Yun Tian Dao's remaining lifespan increased significantly, allowing him to live for nearly an epoch.
Zhao Xing discovered that many of Yun Tian Dao's self-created Ultimate Law had transformed into Origin Law, and his Daoist temple had reached the fifth level of the Realm Star.
"Old Yun, congratulations." Zhao Xing walked over when he saw Yun Tian Dao's light fade. "How are you feeling?"
"It's very different now." Yun Tian Dao looked at his palm. "My spell range has been dramatically increased, and I can easily cover a low-level Realm Star."
"However, on Qing Yu World Star, the area of my dojo is still very small, less than a county."
"Qing Yu Star is, after all, a high-level Realm Star," Zhao Xing said. "Its Boundary Wall, Earth Vein, and Heavenly Timing are all extremely stable. It's ten thousand times more difficult to shake it with magic than a mid- or low-level Realm Star."
The reason why Qing Yu World Star was built into a high-level Realm Star is that even if the Third Realm of origin comes, it cannot destroy itself; at most, it can only destroy a city on the surface.
Among lower- Realm Star, the more fragile ones could potentially be completely destroyed by someone at the Source Origin First Realm, even if they couldn't shatter the planet itself.
It can also destroy the Boundary Wall, cut off its life force, and turn it into a barren planet.
If Yun Tian Dao were at the Source Origin Second Realm, he could use the Minor Divine Ability Star Dou Cloud, in the void. With a single thought, he could pack up and carry away a low-level minor Realm Star, dragging it along the Void River.
Of course, this is because Yun Tian Dao has Minor Divine Ability; if it were just the Void Law, it would still be a bit difficult.
"Having broken through to the Source Origin Realm, I can clearly feel that I can live longer." A cloud of spiritual energy appeared in Yun Tian Dao's palm. "With a deeper control over the origin of spiritual energy, my spells are more stable, and I can still cast them even when I leave stable environments such as Realm Star, Star Continent, and small worlds."
"Not bad." Zhao Xing nodded. "Once you reach the Source Origin First Realm, you will be qualified for interstellar adventures."
Starfields with high spiritual energy indices also exhibit intense phenological reactions.
Stable void refers to places that form their own world, such as small worlds, Realm Star, and Star Continent.
Unstable void refers to all places except for these places.
Even the spiritual energy in the void itself can cause interference. Only when the Daoist method is valid in the vast majority of cases can one be qualified to travel and adventure in the universe.
Otherwise, if you sail to a star system and find that you can't even get back on the ship after you disembark, what's the point of the trip?
Normally, even those in the first realm, with Realm Boat, wouldn't dare to recklessly travel across star systems.
Of course, for Liu Tianning and his group, the journey to the designated location is safe and stable, as this trial method is very well-established.
"What are you looking at?" Zhao Xing asked, noticing that Yun Tian Dao had taken out the [Star Mirror].
"An external mission from the Purple God Mansion." Yun Tian Dao didn't even look up.
"I have now reached the Source Origin First Realm."
"The unlimited supply of resources has stopped. According to the rules of the Purple God Mansion, if you want to continue to obtain cultivation resources, you have to earn them yourself."
"Other tasks have very low wages and bonuses, only foreign affairs tasks are considered well-paid."
Zhao Xing said helplessly, "You don't need to take on such high-risk, high-reward missions right after your breakthrough."
For 289 years Shi Xin, Yun Tian Dao has hardly ever let up!
Zhao Xing considers himself a hardcore gamer, but he still occasionally takes a nap, browses online news, visits Ji Che, and spends time with his family—in short, Zhao Xing still makes time for "life" for himself.
But Yun Tian Dao had no "life" at all, only cultivation!
His innate talent, coupled with his relentless hard work, is why Yun Tian Dao was able to break through in 289 years.
"You could sell your self-created Minor Divine Ability abilities," Zhao Xing said. "You should be able to perfect the Void Law and Origin Law stages with a little time."
"Selling it to an ancient kingdom or the Purple God Mansion would bring in a lot of money."
Yun Tian Dao looked up at Zhao Xing and said, "I will also start doing this after I break through to the Source Origin Realm."
"I've studied it. Even if I've perfected both the Origin Law and Void Law stages now, it's not something I can just sell whenever I want."
"Even if it is sold to an ancient country, from the time it is submitted for review to the time it is confirmed by experiments that there are no sequelae or side effects, to the time it is obtained for sale and to the time it is officially sold, if everything goes smoothly, it will take at least five hundred years."
"Not to mention, I myself am not perfect yet."
Zhao Xing was speechless. It seemed that Yun Tian Dao had thought of everything.
Considering the efficiency of ancient countries, five hundred years is a relatively fast time.
Unless the incomplete cultivation technique is sold off cheaply, and in a one-time sale, but even then the price wouldn't be high, and certainly wouldn't meet Yun Tian Dao's cultivation needs.
"Making money is only one aspect. If you want to quickly reach the second realm after breaking through to the Source Origin First Realm, then methods like closed-door cultivation are too slow."
"I have never experienced the true chaotic void. Staying on the stable Qing Yu World Star, no matter how high one's comprehension is, it is impossible to make any great progress."
Zhao Xing couldn't persuade him any further; he knew how heavy the burden on Yun Tian Dao's shoulders was.
It is estimated that Yun Tian Dao has already planned out his future cultivation path over the past two hundred years.
When are you planning to leave?
"Three months later."
"You're in too much of a hurry," Zhao Xing said, frowning. "If you're going out, you should at least buy some treasures to take with you. You don't even have a decent World Star Dao Soldiers right now."
"Give me some more time, I'll go and have a few custom-made for you."
"How long does it take to customize World Star Dao Soldiers?"
"It usually takes about ten years."
"It's been too long."
"Sharpening your axe won't delay your woodcutting; these ten years are a good time for you to further hone your skills," Zhao Xing advised. "If something goes wrong along the way, wouldn't all your efforts be in vain?"
Yun Tian Dao thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, thank you."
Seeing that he had agreed, Zhao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
Within his capabilities, he will do his best to help Yun Tian Dao fulfill his wish.
"Let's go, let's go register with Gao Ye first," Zhao Xing said.
"Yun Tian Dao, you've broken through?" Gao Ye was very surprised. He didn't expect Yun Tian Dao to progress so quickly.
He knew that Yun Tian Dao and Zhao Xing were both natives of the Desolate Territory and had never been exposed to any advanced cultivation methods before.
Even if you have the skill, it's very difficult to master it while staying in the Desolate Territory.
In other words, Yun Tian Dao completed the leap from the Ascension Realm to the Source Origin Realm in less than three hundred years after arriving at Qing Yu World Star.
"Yes, thank you for your guidance over the years, Brother Gao." Yun Tian Dao nodded.
"I dare not. Brother Yun has the appearance of a celestial being, and his Boundless." Gao Ye's gaze changed instantly.
It took him hundreds of thousands of years to reach the first realm. The main reason he was able to become a member of the Purple God Mansion was because he was born on Qing Yu World Star, and his elders in his family were also members of the Purple God Mansion.
With his school district housing and connections, he was able to become Wu Feng's apprentice.
He wasn't a member specifically tasked with combat; he usually just taught basic lessons to those Ascension Realm to get by.
He knew very well that Yun Tian Dao was a true genius, someone he admired and envied.
Gao Ye had lived most of his life without ever leaving the Purple God Star System, but Yun Tian Dao had repeatedly expressed his desire to go out and explore in the future, and had even asked him about some rules.
Now that Yun Tian Dao has only broken through to the first realm, he can clearly feel the profound pressure emanating from Yun Tian Dao.
"Brother Yun, now that you've broken through to the first realm, with your talent, you could stay on Qing Yu World Star and get a decent job," Gao Ye advised. "There's really no need to go out and take risks so early."
During Gao Ye's years in office, he has seen many people who have reached the Ascension Realm, but there are very few who can compare with Yun Tian Dao's speed of advancement.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Gao. I will remember it."
Zhao Xing and Gao Ye didn't get along very well, but Yun Tian Dao and Gao Ye got along quite well and could even chat about personal matters.
"Okay, I'll take you to register."
Gao Ye didn't glance at Zhao Xing once from beginning to end.
In his mind, Zhao Xing was a lazy bum who just spent his days lounging around in a luxurious manor, wasting his life.
He stopped communicating with Zhao Xing two hundred years ago.
Gao Ye took Yun Tian Dao with him, transformed into a beam of light, and flew away, without taking Zhao Xing with him at all.
"Hey, I haven't gotten on the bus yet—" They left so suddenly, at the Source Origin First Realm, their speed was already equivalent to the speed of light.
In the blink of an eye, the person had vanished.
"Damn it, they look down on people and don't recognize a great man!" Old Master Zhao said indignantly.
He didn't chase after them; by the time he caught up, they might have already registered and returned.
"Once I break through, I'll definitely dazzle your eyes," Zhao Xing cursed as he left.
Wu Feng and Zhao Yuanzi soon learned of Yun Tian Dao's breakthrough.
They had almost forgotten about the people from Great Zhou, since they had never taken them seriously.
But now, it looks quite different.
"With such talent, why didn't Martial Uncle Qing Yuzi choose Yun Tian Dao as his successor in that native world?" Wu Feng knew nothing about the Profound Yellow World, and he didn't even know what Zhao Xing and Yun Tian Dao's qualifications were.
The main reason is that the Purple Moon Mansion Lord deliberately concealed the truth and said nothing.
All that was said was that these two were formal disciples, that they would be given resources to cultivate to the Source Origin Realm, and that a place of residence would be arranged for the Great Zhou. That was it.
Therefore, Yun Tian Dao's ability to cultivate to the Source Origin First Realm after only two hundred years of obtaining the cultivation technique was considered very impressive in their eyes.
"Perhaps my junior brother didn't have a choice back then and didn't know about Yun Tian Dao," Zhao Yuanzi pondered. "By the way, how is Zhao Xing's cultivation progressing?"
Wu Feng was somewhat embarrassed. "Master, I didn't teach them myself; I had Gao Ye teach them on my behalf."
"Who is Gao Ye?" Zhao Yuanzi, taken aback.
There are too many people on Qing Yu World Star. According to seniority, Gao Ye is already a fourth-generation disciple of the Purple Moon Mansion.
In addition, given that Gao Ye's talent was mediocre, he couldn't recall having a Gao Ye- disciple named Takano for a moment.
"He is my disciple, and a beginner-level Dao Master of the Purple Moon Mansion."
"Nonsense!" Zhao Yuanzi shouted, "You dare to shirk the task assigned by your master like this?"
"This disciple knows his mistake." Wu Feng immediately lowered his head.
But if we're talking about deception, didn't it all start with you?
"You go yourself," Zhao Yuanzi snapped. "Even if it's just for show, do it properly. If your grandmaster asks about it later, and he gossips, wouldn't that ruin his impression of you?"
"Yes, disciple understands." Wu Feng nodded respectfully.
Yun Tian Dao's breakthrough reminded Zhao Yuanzi and Wu Feng of Zhao Xing and his group again.
Meanwhile, the news quickly spread throughout the Great Zhou.
Ji Che even made a special trip from Azure Lotus World Star to offer his congratulations.
"Upon reaching the Source Origin Realm, lifespan increases dramatically, approaching the length of an entire era."
"This is a completely different level from the Ascension Realm," Ji Che remarked.
"Even those who have ascended to the Ascension Realm and reside on the Qing Yu World Star with a high spiritual energy index, have an average lifespan of only 200,000 years, and that's assuming they are healthy and free from illness or disaster."
He must have lived this long by now, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
"In reality, it is difficult to live a long life because one has to work hard to make a living and has little money to buy longevity items."
"Not only can those in the Source Origin First Realm live longer, but they can also accumulate wealth, making their lives much more comfortable than those in the Ascension Realm."
Over the Shi Xin of the Great Zhou treasury has not accumulated any money at all, and has instead been constantly spending, mainly on talented officials.
Due to population control measures, the Great Zhou has been continuously reducing its birth rate over the years, resulting in a continuous decrease in wealth. Furthermore, the land no longer truly belongs to them, which has actually hindered Ji Che's cultivation progress.
"Living in Qingyu is no easy feat," Ji Che couldn't help but remark.
Finally, a Source Origin Realm emerged, but Yun Tian Dao wasn't even his subject, so he didn't contribute anything to the nation's fortune.
Currently, Luo King, Dong Ze, Li Hao, Xia Jing, and others who have reached the Ascension Realm are still far from breaking through to the Source Origin Realm.
The money earned each year, after paying taxes, is just enough for daily life and cultivation on Qing Yu World Star, and even requires a sum of money to be spent from the national treasury.
"Che, still haven't figured out a way to make money?" Zhao Xing asked.
In order not to affect Zhao Xing's cultivation, the internal Agricultural Official affairs of the Great Zhou were all handed over to Meng Kun.
Ji Che shook his head. "More than two hundred years ago, we sold some resources for 300 Origin Sea Coin. Now we only have a little over 100 million left."
The time I bought the cultivation technique, I spent more than seven million.
After the Great Zhou stabilized, the spiritual energy index of 20 led to the number of the Ascension Realm increasing more than tenfold in the past two hundred years.
With a large population, we need to buy cultivation techniques for them to practice. Over the years, we have spent about 100 million on purchasing cultivation techniques alone.
In addition, 20 million is spent every hundred years to pay spiritual tax and rent.
In recent years, Great Zhou has also tried to buy seeds from outside and do some basic mechanical parts processing and trading.
If we consider Great Zhou as a small company, it's not profitable every year; in some years, it even incurs losses.
In the more than two hundred years Shi Xin the Zhou Dynasty, the profits earned by the Great Zhou were only 55 million, while the expenditures amounted to more than 150 million.
"Brother, of these 55 million, 50 million were earned by Ji Si. The net profit earned by the Great Zhou itself was only a little over 5 million. Making money in the universe is harder than eating shit," Ji Che smile.
"Ji Si earned fifty million in just over two hundred years? What did he do?" Zhao Xing, somewhat surprised.
"Ask him yourself," Ji Che said.
"I was lucky," Ji Che said, opening the [Star Territory]. "I've been using Star Fortune Strategy and divination to make some investments in the trading market of Qing Yu World Star."
"By speculating on some materials and selling them at a high price, and being lucky, I made some money."
Zhao Xing looked at Ji Si with a very strange expression.
You're really talented at investing in Fate Officials!
"All by luck? Have you found some tricks up your sleeve?" Zhao Xing asked.
"It was indeed luck," Ji Si explained. "Our cultivation methods as Fate Officials are different. At first, I went to the [Trading Market] only to cultivate the ' Wheel of Heavenly Mandate '."
"At first, I lost a lot of money. The fates of countless people in the trading market are intertwined, and the lines of fate are so complex that they are impossible to understand."
"However, after learning some lessons from my mistakes, I became much more cautious."
"The Grand Minister of Agriculture gave me the World Star Dao Soldiers [Star Fortune Strategy], so I shortened the number of transactions."
"The trading market is unpredictable, so I only calculate my own fortune."
"Even if you only act on Lucky Star Shining Brightly days, you still can't avoid losing money; after all, it's not a magic bullet."
"But combining the experience of losses in previous years with my own knowledge and Star Fortune Strategy, I slowly started to make a profit in the second century."
"It wasn't until my recent Lucky Star Shining Brightly that I made a fortune."
"That transaction yielded a profit of over 38 million. I hadn't actually earned much before, so I guess I was just lucky."
Zhao Xing listened to his story, unsure of what to say.
Buying Ji Si "The Wheel of Heavenly Mandate" and using the Star Fortune Strategy on him was definitely the right decision!
"I knew you were a talent," Zhao Xing said, looking at Ji Si.
The "Pay-to-Delivery Master" has become the "Stock Trading Master"!
This guy really has been developing various practical applications for the profession of "Fate Officials".
"However, you still need to be careful," Zhao Xing cautioned. "You have a destiny-type World Star Dao Soldiers, but others will have one too, and the Fate Officials of powerful forces will only be stronger than you."
"I understand." Ji Si nodded. "I mainly use it for cultivation."
Zhao Xing nodded. After hearing what Ji Si said, he was even tempted to visit the ancient kingdom's trading market.
Zhao Xing didn't know what the market was like at this time. If it were 2,200 years from now, he might still be able to find some opportunities.
Yun Tian Dao's breakthrough brought a slight ripple to the lives of the people of Great Zhou, but they soon returned to their usual pattern of diligently cultivating and making money.
"My money is going away very quickly too." Zhao Xing glanced at his account balance. "Less than 100 million."
I spent 100 million yuan to buy "Extreme Land" and also bought "Origin Sea World" for myself, Liu Tianning, and Mi Fu.
Later, when Liu Tianning went out to gain experience, although he couldn't bring Dao soldiers with him, Zhao Xing still gave Old Liu ten million to buy five high-quality Plant Soldier.
All five are at the peak of the Ascension Realm, and there is a good chance that they will break through to the Source Origin Realm on the Tianxing Continent.
"But buying things for Old Liu was just a small expense."
"The majority of my money was spent on cultivating the Cloud-Soaring Vine and the Origin Sea World," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
He cultivates at the Purple God Mansion, where the Time Faction provides his cultivation techniques and resources free of charge.
However, since "Origin Sea World" belongs to the True Self Faction, the cultivation resources associated with it are not included in the free scope.
Zhao Xing had to buy it himself.
Over the course of 280 or 290 years, Zhao Xing invested 120 million in this martial art.
This technique is inherently for the "rich man's style"—invest money in it, and your progress will be rapid.
Zhao Xing glanced at the panel.
[Origin Sea World: 99%]
"In the 289th year, the first layer of the Origin Sea World has completed 99% of the construction of the Five-Element Origin."
"Reaching 100% means you've mastered the first level, which allows the Pure Yuan Space to evolve into the ' Source Origin Space '."
The Source Origin Space contains a small world with the most basic Five-Element Origin Dao!
The pure source of the five elements' spiritual energy, based on which, in the future, can evolve into a small world!
"The second thing I upgraded by spending money was the Cloud-Soaring Vine." Zhao Xing's mind sank down as he entered the Pure Spirit Space.
At this point, because he was cultivating the "Origin Sea World," it could no longer be called Pure Yuan Space, but Pure Spirit Space.
Because there are five spiritual primordial sources in the sky, appearing and disappearing, like the nascent form of the Heavenly Dao of a small world.
On land, there are Spirit Mountain, great rivers, and Spirit Lake, all enveloped by layers of nitrogen-filled energy.
It resembles the state of the universe at its beginning, when chaos first opened up.
At the center of the world, only one life is fluctuating, and that is the Cloud-Soaring Vine.
At this time, the Cloud-Soaring Vine had grown from the size of a palm to about 100 meters.
Its main vine is purplish-gold, while its leaves are purplish-black, with star-like patterns on the main vine that connect to form a whole.
From a distance, it looks like a purple-gold galaxy spread across the ground.
"It took another two hundred million precious resources to cultivate the Origin Sea World, and nearly three hundred years, before the Cloud-Soaring Vine finally emerged from its seedling stage and entered its growth stage."
The growing Cloud-Soaring Vine is still in the Source Origin First Realm, but it has already reached the perfection of the first realm.
There is still a long way to go before reaching the second realm.
With money in hand, of course, he prioritized giving it to his elder brother. Once he reached the cosmic version and had 500 million, he immediately considered cultivating this Void Seed. "Although it's still in the first realm, it's past the seedling stage. As Void Seed, the Cloud-Soaring Vine has already taken root in the ' Void River,' and its combat power is comparable to the early stage of the second realm."
Rooted in the Void River, ignoring the instability of the void, even under strong interference, it can unleash the two Innate Divine Power, ' Void Solidification ' and ' Void Strangulation '!
Zhao Xing always takes precautions. The Purple God Mansion is indeed powerful, but Qing Yuzi was also being hunted by enemies and fell into danger! In other words, even being protected by this powerful force is not 100% safe.
Will the hatred that the Dongyan Ancient Clan has for Qing Yuzi extend to their own descendants?
Furthermore, while he was in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, he always felt a sense of crisis, that is, he didn't know when the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom would be destroyed.
"The Purple Moon Mansion Lord held a funeral for his disciple more than two hundred years ago, so I shouldn't have to worry about being sought after for revenge."
"However, it's better to rely on yourself than on others; ultimately, you have to become strong yourself."
Zhao Xing wouldn't be so naive as to consider the Purple Moon Mansion Lord as a backer. Judging from the attitude of his disciples, it's clear that they don't take him, their successor, seriously.
He arrived at Qing Yu World Star, where the Purple Moon Mansion Lord asked Zhao Yuanzi to teach him, and Zhao Yuanzi then asked Wu Feng to teach him. Wu Feng then summoned Gao Ye to teach him.
Regardless of the intricacies involved—whether it was a test or a struggle for inheritance— Zhao Xing did not trust anyone from the Purple God Mansion.
They were merely using the Purple God Mansion as a stepping stone for a short-term career.
After acquiring enough resources at the Purple God Mansion to overcome the initial weak phase, they immediately leave.
"I'll be breaking through to the Source Origin Realm soon too." Zhao Xing glanced at the panel.
[Purple Yang: 90%]
[Purple Yin: 91%]
"The cultivation of the Dual-Origin Dao Body has reached the final ten miles."
"In another hundred years or so, I will be able to break through to the Source Origin Realm, and by then the Origin Sea World will surely be completed."
"With my Dual-Origin Dao Body, the successful opening of the Origin Sea World, and the presence of the Cloud-Soaring Vine, it's much safer for me to earn money by doing missions."
Zhao Xing returned to his luxurious manor and began absorbing the power of the Lunar Yin and Solar Yang stars.
Zhao Xing began his low-key and diligent cultivation, while the people of Great Zhou also struggled to survive.
Yun Tian Dao borrowed 30 million from Zhao Xing and commissioned Origin Sea Hall to order three World Star Dao Soldiers, which are expected to be delivered in twelve years.
Everything seemed to be on track.
However, not long after Yun Tian Dao broke through, Purple Bone suddenly contacted Zhao Xing.
"Big brother, something's happened!" Purple Bone said in a panic.
"Don't panic. Is your current communication channel secure?" Zhao Xing asked. "If it's inconvenient, find a confidential channel to contact me again. It would be best to go to the Origin Sea Hall area and find a secret room to communicate."
Purple Bone paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact you in half an hour."
Zhao Xing also set off for the Origin Sea Hall on Qing Yu World Star and rented a secret room.
After waiting for half an hour, the Star Territory projected the image of the Purple Bone.
"Big brother, can we talk now?"
"You can speak now," Zhao Xing said.
"Brother, just as you predicted, some people of unknown origin have come looking for me," Purple Bone said.
"Tell me in detail, what happened?" Zhao Xing asked.
"A few days ago, I was cultivating when suddenly a mysterious person forcibly communicated with Zero using the Limitless Compass. He called himself ' Gu Yue '," Purple Bone recalled.
"What did he say to you?" Zhao Xing asked.
"He asked me if I wanted to inherit Pu Ta's legacy, and if I wanted to go further and become the master of a Yin-Yang Star System. He said he could help me, as long as I agreed to cooperate with him."
"What did you say?" Zhao Xing asked.
"Of course I won't agree. This might just be a trap set by the Purple God Mansion to test me!"
Very good, Purple Bone is no longer just bones, he has also grown a brain.
"You did a good job," Zhao Xing nodded. "Don't pay any attention to these sneaky people."
"Brother, after this guy who calls himself Gu Yue, another mysterious person contacted me."
"He also forcibly invaded my artifact spirit; this person calls himself ' Yin Hou.'"
"What did he say to you?" Zhao Xing asked.
"He wants to bribe me to be his mole," Purple Bone said, puzzled. "I asked him who he works for, but he wouldn't tell me."
"He threatened me that if I didn't agree, he would find a way to kill me if I dared to step out of the Tian Yuan Star System."
Purple Bone asked, puzzled, "Brother, do you think this might all be a test orchestrated by the Purple God Mansion? A test of my loyalty?"
"Brother, have you received any such threats or temptations?"
Zhao Xing shook his head. "I haven't encountered it yet."
"Perhaps it's because I'm not Mechanism Master, so it's not so easy to contact me."
"Brother, what should I do now?" Purple Bone asked. "That Gu Yue is one thing, but this guy called Yin Hou even remotely controlled my Mechanical Puppet the day before yesterday. The strength he displayed is simply terrifying!"
Zhao Xing pondered for a moment and said, "Report it to Tianyuan Mansion Lord and tell him exactly what happened to you."
"Whether it's a real external threat or an internal test, reporting it is the best option."
Purple Bone is too weak; he is not qualified to play both sides, nor is he capable of facing things alone.
"Okay, I understand," Purple Bone said. "Big brother, be careful."
"You too," Zhao Xing cautioned. "Don't have any other thoughts."
Zhao Xing was afraid that Purple Bone would get used to being a traitor and foolishly betray him.
After finishing his call with Purple Bone, Zhao Xing fell into thought.
"If it's a test of loyalty from the Purple God Mansion, one person is enough to complete it."
"Holding two events with different people can confuse people and arouse suspicion."
As the saying goes, the more loopholes a plan has, the more flaws it will have.
Zhao Xing speculated, "Then one of these people is very likely from a non- Purple God Mansion force— the Dongyan Ancient Clan?"
"What are they after? Purple Bone and I are just natives of the Desolate Territory. We only received Qing Yuzi's inheritance and are only at the Ascension Realm."
Zhao Xing recalled the scene when he first met the Purple Moon Mansion Lord.
At that time, Qing Yuzi had explained some things to the Purple Moon Mansion Lord through the Temporal Jade Slip, but Zhao Xing had not seen that Temporal Jade Slip because it required the unique decryption method of the Purple God Mansion.
"Qing Yuzi and Pu Ta were being hunted down by the Dongyan Ancient Clan, but what was his mission to investigate at the beginning? — Could it be that Qing Yuzi discovered some secret, which is why he was being hunted down?"
"Is this secret important to the Dongyan Ancient Clan? Then, as the descendants of Qing Yuzi and Pu Ta, shouldn't we also know something about it?"
To be able to secretly communicate with the spirit of the Purple Bone artifact across distant Realm Star and galaxies—that's something only someone at the Dao Domain Realm could accomplish!
Zhao Xing was speechless. He had said many times that Qing Yuzi was erudite and talented.
Originally, it was just to make Lao Qing a scapegoat, but now it seems that Qing Yuzi actually knows some amazing things.
"Brother, this inheritance is really not easy to obtain." Zhao Xing now felt that Qing Yuzi's inheritance was a bit too hot to handle.
"What are you doing in the Desolate Territory? Could it be that the small Chenluo Desolate Territory holds some great secret?" Zhao Xing frowned.
The [Star Territory] that Zhao Xing uses is very difficult to break through artificially, after all, it is the foundation of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom.
Purple Bone was able to break through the blockade and make remote contact because he was Mechanism Master.
However, a month after Purple Bone reported this matter, Zhao Xing also received a message from a mysterious person named Gu Yue.
The other party contacted us through Lu Ying.
The story was exactly the same as the one about Purple Bone: Zhao Xing had the right to inherit Qing Yuzi's estate, and if he was willing to cooperate, he could help Zhao Xing legally acquire Qing Yuzi's wealth.
The only requirement was that after the deed was done, he would receive a 70/30 split? Zhao Xing looked at the Mechanical Puppet "Godslayer" created by Lu Ying, which was a Mechanical Beast that looked like a mongrel dog.
"No, it's a 30/70 split." The Mechanical Beast shook its head. "70% is ours, you can only take 30%."
Hmph, I only take 30%, do you think I'm a beggar?
Zhao Xing chuckled, pointed a finger, and shattered the Mechanical Beast.
Zhao Xing then reported this matter to Zhao Yuanzi.
"Is this really true?" Zhao Yuanzi said with a gloomy expression. "I will send someone to investigate. Zhao Xing, you must not listen to this man's nonsense."
"I understand," Zhao Xing said. "I have never had any improper thoughts."
Zhao Xing understood that Zhao Yuanzi wouldn't be able to find anything out. After all, Qing Yu World Star was a hub of commerce and trade, and even people on the Realm Star might not be able to trace the source. It was extremely difficult to trace the origin of someone anonymously delivering a message.
"Don't worry about this matter," Zhao Yuanzi instructed. "Focus more on your cultivation. I've sent Wu Feng to teach you. He'll come to find you in a few days. Follow his instructions and cultivate diligently under his guidance."
"Yes."
In the days that followed, Zhao Xing received no more letters from the mysterious person named ' Gu Yue '.
Strangely, Zhao Xing was not contacted by the other mysterious person, "Yin Hou".
It seemed as if Zhao Yuanzi's precautions had truly been effective.
Zhao Xing didn't ask any more questions; it would be pointless to ask anyway.
A few days after this incident, Wu Feng finally found time to give Zhao Xing extra tutoring.
Finally, the one in charge of teaching is no longer that Gao Ye Takano!
"The difference in power between Heavenly Law and Origin Law isn't that significant, at least not to an outrageous degree. So why is there a distinction between Heavenly Law and Origin Law?"
"The reason is that Heavenly Law are designed for destructive power, while Origin Law and spells are mainly used to help people study the origin of spiritual energy."
"Whether you cultivate the Purple Yang or the Purple Yin, the power of Origin Law- level spells is secondary; the primary purpose is to accelerate the transformation of the Dao body into its original form."
"The efficiency of attracting Lunar Yin and Solar Yang energy can be improved by practicing Source-level spells."
"Cultivating the Tao emphasizes aptitude, while cultivating the Origin Law emphasizes comprehension."
Wu Feng looked at Zhao Xing: "I heard from Gao Ye that you have been staying in your manor for more than two hundred years."
"They don't want to listen to his sermons, preferring to stay on their own estates, as if they look down on him. Is that true?"
"Master, Zhao Xing has always been like this," Gao Ye said. "Despite being provided with so many resources and benefits, he still doesn't learn to improve himself."
Zhao Xing glanced at Gao Ye next to Wu Feng; this guy was really going too far.
They seize every opportunity to tattle behind people's backs, and now they're openly criticizing them to their faces.
When Zhao Xing looked over, the latter gave a soft cry and turned her head away, seemingly not wanting to look at Zhao Xing any longer.
"It seems that Junior Nephew Gao has a deep misunderstanding of me," Zhao Xing said calmly.
"I not only despise your Dao, I also look down on the Origin Law you teach."
Gao Ye: "???"
Upon hearing the first half of Zhao Xing's sentence, he thought Zhao Xing was trying to find some excuse to explain.
After all that buildup, this is what comes next.
No, what gives you the right?
How dare he actually call himself a junior disciple?
"You've gone too far!" Gao Ye was furious.
"Oh?" Wu Feng's interest was piqued. "You're only at the Ascension Realm, yet you look down on Gao Ye, who's at the First Realm. What abilities do you possess? Is it high aptitude or high comprehension?"
"What stage have you reached in your cultivation of Purple Yang or Purple Yin?"
Zhao Xing said, "I cultivate both Purple Yin and Purple Yang, transforming my Dao body into its origin. With one Yin and one Yang, the Yin-Yang Origin Particles in my body has exceeded four hundred million."
"I have created four techniques at the Ninth Order of the Origin Law, all of which have reached the Seventh Order of the Origin Law. I am proficient in wind, cloud, thunder, and rain."
"Junior Nephew Gao only cultivates the Purple Yin, his Origin Law is only at the third level, and he only knows wind and clouds."
"I've tolerated his crude teaching for nearly three hundred years and haven't blamed him for misleading students. That's already giving you face, Senior Brother Wu."
"He's starting to criticize me?"
As soon as Zhao Xing finished speaking, two orbs of light, one yin and one yang, rose above his head, and his Dao body shone brightly, so brightly that Gao Ye couldn't open his eyes. "Senior Brother Wu, do you think I, your junior brother, am qualified?"
Zhao Xing didn't want to be so high-profile, but Gao Ye was too foolish. He had explained several times, but Gao Ye was stubborn and insisted that he was right.
Ignoring him only fueled his anger, and now Zhao Xing could no longer tolerate it.
"Hmm?" Wu Feng looked at the two purple stars above Zhao Xing's head, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes.
"In less than three hundred years, he has cultivated Purple Yin and Purple Yang techniques and is almost at the pinnacle?"
"His speed is even more genius-like than Yun Tian Dao's?"
"You, you—" Gao Ye stared at Zhao Xing, speechless with shock. Yun Tian Dao had told Gao Ye many times that Zhao Xing's talent was even greater than his own.
Gao Ye took Yun Tiandao's words as Yun Tian Dao defending Zhao Xing. After all, Yun Tian Dao was already fast enough, how could Zhao Xing be stronger than Yun Tian Dao? That was impossible!
In retrospect, he was terribly wrong.
Zhao Xing's cultivation aptitude is truly dazzling!
"You scoundrel, what do you mean 'you'?" Wu Feng shouted, "Call me Martial Uncle Zhao! Gao Ye, you are extremely rude! I had no idea you treated your Martial Uncle like this!"
Seeing that something was wrong, Wu Feng immediately shifted the blame, saying that he had no idea what Gao Ye was like.
This style of work is indeed consistent with the previous one.
Zhao Yuanzi also reprimanded Wu Feng in the same way.
"Uncle Zhao, Martial Uncle Zhao," Gao Ye stammered, bowing respectfully. "It was my ignorance that prevented me from recognizing your True God, Martial Uncle."
Zhao Xing stood with his hands behind his back, unmoved.
Because Gao Ye's waist wasn't bent low enough.
Since he's made a show of it, he should go all out.
Let those below know he's not to be trifled with, and let those above take him seriously.
"Please, please forgive my previous rudeness, Martial Uncle." Gao Ye bowed even lower.
