Great Void Straw Man's Point-Sweeping Spree (1)
The Primordial Beginning Ocean, East Sea.
Zhao Xing was carried by the waves to the shore.
After jumping ashore, Zhao Xing turned around and cupped his hands towards Lans, who was on the crest of the tide. "Thank you for seeing me off, Fellow Daoist Lance."
Until we meet again.
Until we meet again.
Swish~
Zhao Xing disappeared into the estuary reserved for Coral Grade members.
"I hope we can meet again someday." Lans smiled. He was now at the peak of the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm and a Coral Ninth Order.
To enter the Reincarnation Realm, one must transcend birth and death, but how easy is that?
Lans has been in the Primordial Beginning Ocean for 300,000 years. He wanted to borrow some courage from the vast ocean, but he still doesn't dare to take that step.
"The closer you get, the more awe you feel."
A faint sigh dissipated with the waves.
After emerging from the Instant Flower and turning onto the Thousand Star Vine, Zhao Xing walked along the road in a cheerful mood.
"At the Source Origin Realm stage, being able to stand firmly for ten breaths at a distance of 1 million nautical miles from the Primordial Beginning Ocean means that one has already possessed the abilities of the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm in a certain aspect."
"If you can do that, you can immediately reach 102.2 million points and become a member of the First Tier of Coral."
"Rules specifically designed for geniuses among geniuses."
"If you try again after reaching the Dao Domain Realm, you will still be awarded points according to the original rules. Even if you reach the million-sea-mile mark, you will only have a little over nine million points. You will still have to keep moving forward."
Reaching a million nautical miles in the Source Origin Realm and reaching a million nautical miles in the Dao Domain Realm are completely different concepts; the former will have a higher upper limit in the future!
"Many members from the Primordial Convention 1775 years ago have now entered the Dao Domain Realm," Zhao Xing, looking at the Star Mirror. "They have reached the end of their path in the Source Origin Realm; staying there any longer will not make their Origin Foundation any stronger."
"People like Han Chuchen and Mystic Pine True Person have already entered the Dao Domain Realm, generated magical power, and their Dao Fields have transformed into Dao Domains."
"They've already reached their limits. It's time for me to see my own limits and break through to the Dao Domain Realm as soon as possible to seize the initiative in the next version."
"Let's use up these 100 million points first. The first priority is to recover from the aftereffects on our souls."
Seaweed City, Treasure Exchange Hall.
Naina Zi was waiting early in front of the private, high-class reception room.
"Lord Zhao, congratulations on becoming a esteemed Coral Grade member."
Glancing at the curvaceous Naina Zi, Zhao Xing laughed, "Naina Zi, you're not bad either. More than a thousand years have passed, and you're almost at the Yin Yang Dao Domain Realm."
"Thank you for your praise, sir. You are the sun and moon, and I am but a tiny firefly." Naina Zi very respectfully. "Please take a seat, sir."
Amidst the flattery, Naina Zi welcomed Zhao Xing into the living room and seated him. "My lord, after becoming a Coral Grade member, your residence will be changed. You will no longer live in Seaweed City, but will go to Coral City, which has a higher spiritual energy index and is located at the top of the Dao Manifestation Layer."
"In addition, your entourage will be replaced unless you specifically request that someone be retained—"
Naina Zi began to introduce the new benefits and perks.
Seaweed City and Seaweed City are temporary residences. The members can only stay for a maximum of two thousand years, and can only be considered as 'tenants' at most.
Once you reach the Coral Grade, you can live in Coral City and own land and manors, which makes you a true master.
Otherwise, they are all just passersby in the Primordial Beginning Realm.
The Star Mirror has been further upgraded, and its permissions have been correspondingly enhanced.
Zhao Xing even discovered that the newly replaced Star Mirror included options such as "Starfire Organization", "Empire Military Command", and "Red Star Border".
"From this moment on, I am finally a true member of the Primordial Beginning Realm, and I finally have a foothold," Zhao Xing said with emotion.
True members of the Primordial Beginning Realm have direct access to the Empire's key departments, such as Starfire, the Border, and the Military.
Previously, Zhao Xing Starfire to send an avatar out of the Primordial Beginning Realm and then use personal connections to contact Starfire, but now he could connect directly.
These permissions are designed to cultivate a sense of ownership and belonging among Coral Grade members.
"My lord, one of these two storage rings is for storing the physical benefits of the Coral Grade members, and the other is the treasure you ordered."
"Um."
Zhao Xing opened it and saw the smaller ring.
Inside were a few pills, seven identity seals, and twenty-four sets of "one-click deployment" Magic Array.
These could be keys to certain safe houses or emergency distress signals. In extreme situations where the Star Mirror is blocked, they could be used for self-rescue.
This was not much different from what Zhao Xing knew in his previous life, so he glanced at it and put it aside.
The second ring was a treasure I purchased with over 100 million points.
It is mainly a treasure to heal the aftereffects of the soul.
"Last time, in order to pass Zuo Qiyu's test, I ate 500 Soul Spirit Pill in one go. Although it allowed my soul level to reach the Yin Yang Dao Domain Realm, it also left me with aftereffects."
"Three Soul Cleansing Jade and two ' Rice Soul Worm ' should be enough," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"Secondly, there are the Five Elements Source Stone, Yin Yang Stone, and Intermediate World Stabilizing Tower needed to cultivate the Primal Chaos Diagram."
The Primal Chaos World Realm techniques are the biggest drain on resources, and the upper limit of the Source Origin Space determines the upper limit of the mass army strategy.
"I'm going into seclusion."
Zhao Xing waved his hand, Naina Zi immediately left.
Inside the cultivation room, three palm-sized, dark purple Soul Cleansing Jade floated around Zhao Xing.
Three purple jades emitted light that pierced directly into Zhao Xing's soul.
Warm and comfortable.
The swelling and strange blisters in Zhao Xing's soul have been relieved.
"Next up are the Rice Soul Worm."
Upon opening the two silver metal boxes, two tiny worms, no bigger than grains of rice, swiftly burst through Zhao Xing's head and burrowed inside.
The Rice Soul Worm is not a true life form, but a medical-type Daoist soldier created by the "Mechanical Physician," a branch of the Mechanism Master profession.
The two "Rice Soul Worm" entered the Sea of Consciousness, following the Purple Light light.
It quickly split into two, then into four, and in the blink of an eye, 100,000 appeared.
They swarmed forward, heading straight for the Fate Soul.
"The aftereffects of the Three Souls are actually in the Fate Soul. The other two souls appear listless because the Fate Soul is damaged."
Zhao Xing remained motionless, watching helplessly as the Rice Soul Worm flew over.
He then witnessed a well-organized and highly efficient "health defense battle".
A large number of Rice Soul Worm burrowed into his Soul Body, cutting and devouring the cystic bubbles, and pulling out countless tiny yet real soul parasites.
The whole process only lasted two and a half months, and apart from a little itching, there was basically no discomfort.
After the treatment is completed, the Purple Light shines on the Rice Soul Worm, guiding it out.
"Clatter~"
The two Rice Soul Worm had grown four or five times larger. They returned to the silver metal box, and after it was closed, a burst of fire and a flash of light appeared, leaving only ash inside the box.
"That feels good."
Zhao Xing stretched his body, then looked inward into his Sea of Consciousness and found that his Soul Body was bright and round, with a dignified appearance, and had regained its former radiance.
"The Empire is awesome, no wonder it has Divine Realm Mechanism Master."
In many ancient countries, consuming 500 Soul Spirit Pill would be considered an intractable disease!
In the Primordial Beginning Realm of the Empire, Zhao Xing didn't even need to see a doctor.
It eliminates the risk of having one's soul spied on.
"It's just a bit expensive."
"One hundred million points, sixty million points were spent on repairing the aftereffects of the soul, and forty million points were spent on cultivation techniques, so they were all gone in an instant."
"These resources aren't even enough to fill a tooth gap." Zhao Xing clapped his hands, opened the Star Mirror, and accepted over a thousand missions in one go.
"Send out the Voidgrass Doppelganger to launch a massive points sweep."
July of the 1775th year since entering the Primordial Beginning Realm.
Zhao Xing dispatched the Voidgrass Doppelganger to conduct a sweep of the Primordial Beginning Realm's point-based tasks.
"Wind Thunder Canyon is where the Wind and Thunder paths meet. The canyon is only ten thousand miles long, and you get 100 points for every mile you walk. The total points are only a million, but even a small amount is still something."
"Hmm? There are record rewards too? If you can break the time limit and get into the top ten this year, you'll get extra multipliers. If you can break the first place record, you'll get a 10x bonus, which is 10 million points."
"This has some potential."
Voidgrass Doppelganger stood outside the Wind Thunder Canyon and glanced at the stone tablet at the entrance of the canyon, which only had ten names on it.
"Tuo Sen is in first place, taking three quarters of an hour and two breaths."
"Pu Tianrui ranked second, taking three quarters of an hour and eight breaths."
"Wu Yanlin ranked third, taking three quarters of an hour and twelve breaths."
"The fourth place goes to a Time Faction Agricultural Official named Fang Hongyu, who took three quarters of an hour and nineteen breaths."
Fifth place, Young Lotus Fairy—
"Sixth place, Han Chiba."
"Seventh place, Miaosong."
"Eighth place, Su Jiudao."
"Ninth place, Wei Lan."
"Tenth place, Kasluo."
"The top five all finished the game within 45 minutes, while the bottom five all took more than 45 minutes, but the difference was not significant."
With a thought, Zhao Xing immediately began the first attempt with the Voidgrass Doppelganger.
"Boom!"
A thunderclap rose from the ground.
As soon as they entered the canyon, a continuous stream of lightning struck the Voidgrass Doppelganger.
The Voidgrass Doppelganger's figure flickered, and a series of lightning bolts struck behind him.
"Swish, swish, swish~"
The Grand Void Clone flew rapidly.
"Compared to the comprehensive challenges of the Primordial Beginning Ocean, the Wind Thunder Canyon is a pure magical attack. Two large arrays cover the canyon, and their power is constantly increasing."
"If you are hit by a bolt of lightning or Astral Wind, you will immediately be trapped in a cycle, which will hinder your progress."
"Hiding underground won't help either, as the intensity of the underground Yin Wind and lightning is just as high."
The entire Wind Thunder Canyon can be described as an exquisite Yang Wind and Thunder Formation!
A journey of thousands of miles, if traveled at a normal pace, wouldn't even take the blink of an eye.
However, Zhao Xing was flying very slowly because the two Great Daos of Wind and Thunder were constantly interfering with the Voidgrass Doppelganger's control over the Great Dao of Void.
They couldn't defeat Zhao Xing, but they could slow Zhao Xing down.
In the end, Zhao Xing's first successful completion of the challenge took three quarters and sixteen breaths.
"He replaced Fang Hongyu, who was in fourth place, and received a seven-fold bonus, which is seven million points."
"The first time was just to familiarize myself with the levels, so I was a bit slow. I should be able to improve on that," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"If I surpass the first place, I can get another 3 million points. Let's give it a try."
Swoosh~
Regrouping, Zhao Xing once again entered the Wind Thunder Canyon.
"He went to Wind Thunder Canyon!" Shi Qianye and Miao Song Dao Ren were staying in Seaweed City when Miao Song Dao Ren suddenly received news that his ranking in Wind Thunder Canyon had dropped by one place.
"I saw Zhao Xing in the new rankings."
"How many?" Chiba suddenly looked up, his eyes gleaming.
"Fourth, it only took three quarters of an hour and sixteen breaths!"
Shi Qianye's eyes gleamed with fighting spirit. "Excellent, excellent, what a fine Voidgrass Doppelganger!"
Whoosh! Chiba vanished from the spot.
Zhao Xing's second adventure in the Wind Thunder Canyon came to an end.
"Three quarters and seven breaths later, we've reached second place."
Zhao Xing glanced at it, seemingly lost in thought.
After a short break, we'll try again for the third time.
It was after he entered the Wind Thunder Canyon for the third time.
Pu Rui and Wu Yanlin, who were surpassed, also received the news.
"Is Zhao Xing in Wind Thunder Canyon?"
"We're already in second place."
"A good opportunity."
Pu Rui and Wu Yanlin were also in Seaweed City, and they immediately headed towards Wind Thunder Canyon.
Not only did Shi Qianye and Mystic Pine True Person want to see the abilities of Voidgrass Doppelganger, they also wanted to fight Zhao Xing.
After all, this is the legendary art of using straw figures!
There were quite a few people loitering around in Seaweed City, and countless others invited Zhao Xing through the Star Mirror.
However, Zhao Xing's true form was cultivating the Primal Chaos Diagram and didn't look at the Star Mirror at all, so he had no idea that many talented people were looking for him, wanting to compete with him.
The third attempt is over.
Zhao Xing stood on the other side of the canyon.
Arcs of electricity crackled from the straw man's shoulders.
There are charred marks in many places.
"Two quarters of an hour and fifteen breaths." Zhao Xing patted the electric arc on his shoulder with satisfaction. "10 million points in hand. The only downside is that it's not a no-damage clear."
The first two attempts were aimed at completing the game without taking any damage, which naturally took longer.
The last time, I'm not going to dodge, so naturally I'll be much faster.
"My Voidgrass Doppelganger is just practice material, and there's still room for improvement, but this is a record from Tuo Sen five hundred years ago."
"I wonder who's stronger between him and me now."
Zhao Xing saw that his name was above Tuo Sen's, then put it aside and went to the next place to score points.
He had just left when a large group of people appeared outside the Wind Thunder Canyon.
"Is Zhao Xing here? Coral Grade member Hai Bo, please enlighten me!"
"Mushroom King, shall we fight a great battle with Hong Yue!"
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, why don't you accept the challenge invitation from the Star Mirror?"
There were so many people that before Chiba and Mystic Pine True Person could even speak, someone else beat them to it.
"It seems we all share the same thought." The two exchanged a glance and shook their heads with wry smiles.
With so many people, including many veteran Dao Domain Realm at the seventh or eighth level of the Coral Realm, it's uncertain whether it will even be their turn.
However, after scanning around for a while, they found that Zhao Xing was not found in the Wind Thunder Canyon. Only his name on the stone tablet and the very conspicuous record of two quarters and fifteen breaths remained.
The Primordial Beginning Realm, the Layered World Mountain.
"The Layered World Mountain is a very unique natural landscape in the universe, with its peaks layered upon each other in the void."
Zhao Xing stood on a green vine, gazing into the distance.
Standing outside, he can see the mountain's exterior and interior, both macroscopically and microscopically.
The reason for this is that the Layered World Mountain usually penetrate multiple layers of void.
If it runs through the Image Manifestation Layer, Dao Manifestation Layer, and Dao Ancient Layer, it will be called the Three Layered World Mountains.
This Layered World Mountain is a typical example of the Three Layered World Mountains.
The related task is called the "Mountain-Moving Mission".
"The more rocks you dig out from the Layered World Mountain within the specified time, the more points you will get." Zhao Xing smiled as he looked at the task.
"Well, even the Primordial Beginning Realm is plagiarizing. This is clearly the training content from the Ancient Hill of Antiquity."
Excavating the entire Three Layered World Mountains is extremely difficult.
Because the Three Layered World Mountains constantly transforms the origin of the void, forming new rocks.
The Five Poisons Emperor Lord once complained that the eldest disciple of the Emperor Hongshan of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity was Yanwu, who took more than three hundred years to excavate a Three Layered World Mountains. In fact, this speed was already very good, but it still could not meet the needs of the higher-ups.
"The ability to move mountains relies on the endless descendants, but what if the mountains themselves are endless?" Zhao Xing muttered to himself before plunging into the Three Layered World Mountains.
