Karma Divine Art and Warning!

Independent Space-Time, Divine Mechanism City.

On the Bell Mountain Throne, the Immeasurable True God suddenly discovered that several red hairs had grown on his arm.

The hair, like insects, kept writhing Immeasurable True God raised his eyebrows and stared at the three red hairs. The hairs emitted a faint red light, which represented a sinister cause.

"Who are A Su Long, Wu Zhen, and Jian Ling?"

"Oh, I see. They suffered a setback, and the Divine General investigating the cause and effect, trying to figure out who Han Bing is—"

"Hmph, overestimating yourself."

The Immeasurable True God casually slapped down.

"Smack!"

Three red hairs broke off.

The powerful divine force, transmitted through cause and effect, traversed countless times and spaces, and descended upon the three Divine General behind A Su Long, Jian Ling, and Wu Zhen.

"Boom!"

The three Free Divine General immediately changed their expressions, and countless statues in the temples began to shatter in order to resist the counterattack that descended from the hidden space-time.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!!.

It's unknown how many temples were destroyed before the three Divine General managed to resolve the situation.

"A mere wandering spirit, rootless and adrift, dares to cause me trouble."

The voice of the Immeasurable True God was mechanical and cold, echoing in the different times and spaces of the three Divine General.

The Divine General behind A Su Long, Jian Ling, and Wu Zhen were so frightened that they dared not even breathe.

They simply wanted to find out whose subordinate Venerable Han Bing was, so they followed the cause and effect and found the Immeasurable True God.

Unexpectedly, the other party was so unreasonable that they started fighting directly and ended up beating them up.

"The cause and effect of their actions all return to me."

This is one of the protective measures prepared by the Immeasurable True God for Zhao Xing.

He used the Karma Divine Incantation to transfer the karmic burdens that Zhao Xing had incurred after traveling through time and space to himself, through the relationship of worship between Zhao Xing and him.

The Karma Divine Incantation is built on the grand framework of the river of time and space, and it is very particular.

If Zhao Xing had encountered a 'peer' cause and effect, it wouldn't have been triggered. A peer is nothing more than Demigod. Whether such a cause and effect is good or bad, Zhao Xing should bear it himself.

If Zhao Xing were to encounter a "god-level" cause and effect, especially if someone intends to trace Zhao Xing's origins, then this cause Karma Thread would eventually connect to the Immeasurable True God.

The Immeasurable True God has too many avatars and too many affairs to handle, so in order to remind himself, hair will grow on his body whenever such a situation occurs.

Red hair Evil Cause Evil Result, while golden hair signifies Good Cause and Good Result, representing a great opportunity—this is something we should also be wary of.

The gods behind A Su Long, Wu Zhen, and Jian Ling came with great force, clearly there to demand an explanation.

However, the Immeasurable True God saw that the three red hairs were very thin, proving that the other party was not strong. He had never heard of the other party's name, proving that the other party was a "minor hair god" without any powerful backing.

So he slapped it back.

The three Divine General weak and were defeated by the Immeasurable True God, without even knowing who defeated them.

They could only swallow their anger and dared not linger, letting the Karma Thread break, never daring to pursue it further.

The Immeasurable True God didn't take it seriously and continued meditating on the Clock Throne.

Zhao Xing was unaware that after A Su Long and the others left, the Divine Realm behind him were calculating his fate, and then he was brutally beaten by the Immeasurable True God.

He told Bowei about the change of identity, and Bowei walked out of the Realm Transmission with a strange expression in his Internal World.

"Your identity has changed to that of Mount Penglai Guardian?"

Today, Bowei changed into a different outfit, dressed as a martial artist.

Bowei, who was staying in his Internal World, seemed to be very bored and spent his days playing with different character outfits.

"Are you perhaps the illegitimate son of the Moon God Palace Master? Surely you can't be a descendant of the Reincarnation Hall Master?"

"Why does the elder say that?" Zhao Xing also expressed some disagreement. "Is there something wrong with it?"

"Of course not." Bowei sneered, "With Biluo dead Bifang severely injured, you, as the instigator, have already changed the course of this event."

"Logically, any change in your status should be a downgrade. In the timeline, with such a major incident at the Sacred Mountain, you, as the patrol envoy, should definitely be dismissed."

"It's perfectly normal for you to become a menial servant or an ordinary disciple of Penglai Mountain."

"The Guardian Art is essentially a lateral transfer. It must be the Profound Spirit History Book Replica protecting you."

"Even the rubbings of the Mysterious Spirit History vary in quality. Either the Moon God Palace Master gave you special treatment, or the Reincarnation Hall Master gave you preferential treatment."

"Is that so?" Zhao Xing took out History Book Rubbing but didn't find anything unusual.

He had never met the Moon God Palace Master or the Reincarnation Hall Master, and Lu Ya had not given any special instructions.

Zhao Xing decided not to think too much about it, "So, is this change good or bad?"

Bowei said, "Of course this is a good thing. The inheritance of Penglai is another major opportunity. It would be too inconvenient for you to start from the bottom as a servant. And even if you could climb up, it would be very unreasonable."

"Where do so many stories of ordinary people achieving success come from?"

"If you are changed to Guardian Art of Penglai Mountain, there won't be anything wrong with you even if you perform slightly better."

"Even if you display god-level talent or combat power, your identity should not be exposed; this is a characteristic of inheritance-type events."

"As long as it's not a bad thing, that's fine." Zhao Xing nodded in satisfaction.

The inheritance of Penglai Mountain was also one of his goals, an event that occurred in 354 of the second Solar Year.

It is now 578 years into the first Solar Year, and it will begin in just over 700 years.

The story is quite simple: the Penglai Divine General felt his time was coming to an end and would choose a destined person to inherit his legacy.

Finally, Zhao Xing casually asked, "Elder, have you been researching any martial arts techniques lately?"

Bowei did not answer and walked straight into the yard.

"Last time he was dressed Fate Master, today he's dressed as a martial artist. I wonder what Bowei is researching this time, and whether he has any results."

"It's a pity I didn't arrive today."

Learning new knowledge from Bowei was one of Zhao Xing's joys.

"The True Form of the Golden Cicada True Form: Double Body" was acquired through a transaction, but "Thread Fruit" was given away for free.

There are also other Theory of Law, such as the "Space-Time Theory" by the True History Faction, which broadened Zhao Xing's horizons and gave him a deeper understanding of the world.

"I chatted with people from different times, such as Chu Ji, Liu Qingci, and Xu Huai, and found that there were no god-level scholars in their era. There were historians, but they could not be considered scholars in the true sense."

"Bowei's god-level scholarship is highly valuable across multiple time periods."

"The Human Race's higher-ups are willing to give me a chance, making Bowei my protector. They really think highly of me."

After expressing his gratitude to the high-ranking members of the Desolate Territory Faction, Zhao Xing's consciousness left his Internal World.

The change in identity is somewhat like a prediction, but nothing has changed in "history" yet; he is still in the Mountain Patrol Divine Department.

Zhao Xing took stock of the gains from the three fortuitous events.

"The first fortuitous event yielded 9734 Earth God Crystal, one Sky God Blade, and one Divine Vein Ark belonging to the Beast God 'Tibu'."

"The second fortuitous event yielded 15,748 Earth God Crystal, but no other gains."

"The third fortuitous event, involving 38,232 Earth God Crystal, resulted in a change of identity."

"A total of 63,714 cubic meters of Earth God Crystal, and two divine artifacts."

"If all of it were converted into Contribution Points, it would be about 64.7 billion. However, at least 80% of these Earth God Crystal should be kept for my own use." Zhao Xing was calculating that his Internal World needed to transform, the Ke Yang Divine Tree needed to be nurtured, and the Extreme Land needed to be expanded. Of course, the stronger the foundation of the Free God's origin, the better.

"Formerly the Mountain Patrol Divine Department, Han Bing, and his deputies Xu Huai, Yu Sheng, and Zhuo Hua, listen to my command!"

"The four of you have been transferred to Penglai Mountain to assume new positions."

Inside the Mountain Patrol Divine Department, the Fire Pond blazed brightly, and four Investiture of the Gods were unleashed.

They flew towards Zhao Xing, Liu Qingci, Xu Huai, Zhuo Hua.

In the winter of 578, due to the fall of the Free God Biluo, General Yue Nan of the Mountain Patrol Divine Department, disbanded the Mountain Patrol Divine Department in the Yas Sea Domain.

The few who remained received new appointments.

Zhao Xing and Liu Qingci, along with three others, were all dispatched to Penglai Mountain.

The other deputy envoys went to other sea and mountainous areas.

Based on causal points, even in the same place, newly appointed positions can vary.

Zhao Xing is the Five Spirit Peak Guardian of Penglai Mountain, Liu Qingci is the West Altar Master, and Zhuo Hua is the Sixth Service Deputy Director.

"Guardian Art Five Spirit Mountain, isn't that a lucrative position?" Liu Qingci and Zhuo Hua looked at Zhao Xing in shock.

To be honest, this transfer order has a punitive connotation. Although it's called a lateral transfer, you can tell from the job description that the new position is far less comfortable than the previous Mountain Patrol Envoy.

Judging from the duties of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity at that time, the altar master of the Earth Altar was usually in charge of the preparations for the Earth Altar and sacrificial rites in the process of opening and closing the mountain.

Of the four altars—east, south, west, and north—the southeast altar was the most revered, followed by the north altar. The west altar was essentially just for show, as no one worshipped there anymore.

They could only do manual labor, making them the lowest-ranking of the four altars.

As for the "Deputy Chief of the Sixth Service," they were even worse off, as they were only good at menial tasks.

"The Sixth Service Department are responsible for coordinating tasks including digging tunnels, feeding spirit beasts, opening mines, clearing veins in the Earth Palace, and draining remnants—that would be fine."

"I'm not even the head of the Sixth Service Department, just a deputy head. I'm truly speechless."

Looking at the new appointment, Venerable Zhuo Hua couldn't help but feel dejected.

Compared to Zhao Xing's Lingfeng Guardian Art, this is not even in the same league.

The Spirit Peak Guardian Art can freely enter and leave the blessed land of the Spirit Mountain, control the Mountain Spirits and Wild Monsters, disciples and followers, consume the essence of heaven and earth, and observe the mysteries of all the peaks.

This is a position where you're very likely to encounter opportunities!

Comparing yourself to others is truly infuriating.

"Xu Huai, what is your identity?" Zhuo Hua looked at Xu Huai, who had remained silent.

Xu Huai, holding the imperial edict, slapped it onto Zhuo Hua with a blank expression. "See for yourself."

"Hundred Stone Peak, Ink Well Guardian, what kind of position is that?" Zhuo Hua didn't react for a moment.

"Pfft~" But Liu Qingci burst out laughing. Realizing that her action was inappropriate, she cupped her hands towards Xu Huai and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Xu Huai, I just couldn't help it."

Zhao Xing couldn't help but chuckle. The so-called "Ink Well Guardian" was nominally Guardian Art, but in reality, he was just a watchman of the mine.

It's like the Divine Emperor bestowing titles upon the waters of the world. Everyone else has the Dragon King of the East Sea or the Dragon King of the West Sea, but when it comes to Xu Huai, a Well Dragon King has arrived.

Originally, the Dragon King of the Well was not of low rank, but being confined to a specific area was the death knell for him.

The guardian of the Hundred Stone Peak Ink Well Guardian is equivalent to Xu Huai being limited to guarding this area and not allowed to freely visit other wells.

"Brother Xu Huai, your role as Guardian Art is truly—" Venerable Zhuo Hua stammered, "It would be better if I didn't take the position."

It's not as good as the Sixth Deputy Chief; at least Venerable Zhuo Hua has a wider range of actions.

"Throat—" Xu Huai sighed.

To think that he, the Minister of Agriculture of the Heavenly Time Sect, a man who had once been on the Bai Zhuo Ji Genius List, was actually sent to inspect the Mo Well!

This place is utterly unreasonable.

But despite the complaints, if you want to stay, you have to follow the rules.

Zhao Xing, Xu Huai, Liu Qingci, and Zhuo Hua immediately set off, leaving the Yas Sea Domain in 578 of the first Solar Year, and arriving at Penglai Mountain in 563.

"At this time, the opportune moment is still more than seven hundred years away."

"I don't know how many people will participate."

If there is still a possibility of cooperation in the Yas Sea Domain.

Therefore, the Penglai Divine General's Inheritance can only be obtained by one person, and there is no possibility of cooperating with other descendants.

"There can be no win-win situation. Only one person can inherit the legacy. All the other descendants are enemies, and there may even be god-level opponents among them."

Zhao Xing made a decision in his heart that he would live on a spiritual peak for the next seven hundred years until the opportunity to Penglai Divine General's Inheritance's legacy was triggered and he would emerge from the mountain.

"Venerable Han Bing, I am Song Shan from the Blessed Land Department, responsible for the management of the cave dwellings on the various peaks of Spirit Mountain. You may choose any cave dwelling among the five peaks." Song Shan was dressed in a simple blue linen robe, with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows to reveal his tanned forearms.

Upon seeing this person, Zhao Xing realized that he was also a Descendant. On the surface, he was Emperor Lord Realm, but in reality, he was already Ninth Order Demigod.

"Countless people are staking out this inheritance event, and the first person I see here is actually a Descendant." Zhao Xing became increasingly cautious.

He didn't look around much and randomly chose a cave.

"Alright, I'll choose this one. I don't like being waited on. I prefer to do everything myself and don't need any servants or attendants."

"Yes, no problem, I promise I won't let anyone bother you."

"Let me first introduce you to the cave." Song Shan warmly invited Zhao Xing into the cave and introduced him.

Zhao Xing couldn't help but find it amusing that the man wouldn't leave, kept flattering him, and seemed to be expecting something from him.

"Song Shan is using me as a figure to gain favor, hoping I'll tip him something."

But Old Master Zhao's wool isn't that good. Besides, although he has a lot of gold, he doesn't have any silver, so it's not good to use it for rewards.

So he maintained an indifferent attitude, listened to Song Shan ramble on for a while, and then started to chase people away.

Song Shan remained enthusiastic and took his leave with a smile.

Once they were away from the cave, their attitude changed completely.

"Pah! Where did this poor wretch come from!"

"They flattered him for ages, but he wouldn't give them a single penny!"

"What a waste of my time."

Song Shan thought he could get some "opportunity" from Zhao Xing, but after all that, he got nothing.

However, this wasn't the first time, so Song Shan didn't take it to heart. He simply silently Guardian Art Han Bing as a poor wretch and stingy.

"If you want to seize the opportunity to Penglai Divine General's Inheritance, you need to know what the Penglai Divine General's Dao is, and even study some of his hobbies. Only by sharing the same ideals and beliefs can you obtain his legacy."

"On the contrary, no matter how talented or strong one is, one will not be able to obtain the Penglai Divine General's Inheritance."

In the Internal World, Bowei was giving Zhao Xing a lesson. Today, he was dressed as an Agricultural Official, specifically in the old- Heavenly Timing Solar Golden Plume Robe worn by the Agricultural Official.

"According to historical records, the Penglai Divine General cultivated the Earth Treasury path. He was not the kind of Agricultural Official who fought and killed," Bowei said. "He was a disciple of the Earth Treasury Divine King. Before he defected to join the Cosmic Ark Project, he was the most skilled agricultural God King."

"The layout of the Twelve Mountains in the Ancient Hill of Antiquity Spirit Domain Era was basically arranged according to the Earth Treasury Divine King's 'Earth Treasury Mountain Sea Scripture'."

"After his defection, although the classics remained, the Ksitigarbha Earth Treasury Department at Ancient Hill of Antiquity gradually declined."

Zhao Xing sighed with emotion, noting that super powers have undergone different changes in different eras, and the departure of the Earth Treasury Divine King and the Zhoushan Divine King had a profound impact on the Ancient Hill of Antiquity.

Especially Earth Treasury Divine King, without his guidance, the subsequent geniuses of the Earth Treasury Department school always found it difficult to understand his Jinglun, let alone reach his level.

If you learn on your own without anyone teaching you, your progress will be much slower, or you might not even be able to break through at all. For example, in the Life Earth Palace, if it weren't for the teaching of General Lan Chuan, you might not have been able to master it so quickly.

"As a disciple of the Earth Treasury Divine King, the Penglai Divine General's knowledge of the Earthly Advantage Faction School of magic is mainly the Earth Treasury Art, followed by the Mystic Earth Art, the Earth Palace Art, and the Spiritual Mountain Law."

"Growing up under the protection of Earth Treasury Divine King, he has hardly experienced any battles, but he is very good at farming."

"As for his personal preferences, the Official History I recall only mention that he 'liked planting bamboo and raising elephants.'"

"He also has two nicknames, one is 'Sea Elephant God' and the other is 'Bamboo Scholar Ning,' the latter being a self-proclaimed one."

"The former is because he likes the Sea Elephant Race, so he often transforms into the appearance of Sea Elephant Race. Over time, the Sea Elephant Race have come to regard him as a god, and he is happy to accept the title of Sea Elephant God."

He likes planting bamboo and raising walruses? Zhao Xing flipped through the information on the Penglai Divine General and found it rather intriguing.

History is vast and boundless; if Bowei hadn't explained it, Zhao Xing wouldn't have known it in such detail.

But now he has a direction.

"Over seven hundred years, you can learn more spells in this area. I can't teach you these unique spells of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity."

I only know its name, not its method.

"However, there is one inside Yuan Ji Mountain. The reason you are allowed to take it with you to travel through time and space is so that you will have time to study it."

Zhao Xing nodded. As the head of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity, the Yuan Ji Mountain he carried contained many of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity's hidden spells.

However, it's not so easy to learn. First, you don't have the divine power of the Earthly Advantage Faction, and second, without a teacher, it will be slower, or you might not even be able to get started.

Bowei knew what spells existed in the Ancient Hill of Antiquity, but he didn't know the specific methods of cultivation.

The Ancient Hill of Antiquity are not afraid of losing Yuan Ji Mountain, because this artifact has a unique characteristic: no matter where it is lost, it will always return to the hands of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity.

Having found his direction, Zhao Xing began to cultivate.

A World Core floated in the cave, while the physical body entered the Internal World.

Instead of studying under Bowei's nose, he went to the Yin-Yang Star System where the Ke Yang Divine Tree was located.

"The most important Earth Treasury Art is the Primordial Earth Treasury Scripture Sutra. I once learned Reincarnation-level Secret Technique, Primordial Earth Treasury, which comes from this sutra."

"The magic I learned was mainly used to activate dead Earth Vein, giving them new life. However, the Primordial Earth Treasury has more than just this function."

"I rarely use this spell normally. I'll spend these seven hundred years studying the Primordial Earth Treasury Scripture."

Zhao Xing summoned a piece of land, and with a wave of his hand, the land was neatly divided into 800,000 squares.

Each square spans over a million square kilometers, and the different combinations of Earth Vein result in varying soil characteristics within each square.

Zhao Xing was cultivating the "Primordial Earth Treasury Scripture" within these 800,000 squares.

The Primordial Earth Treasury Scripture contains many magical techniques, as well as theories and principles, such as the Yang Year Soil Extraction Method, the Yin Moon Soil Extraction Method, and "Dao Manifestation Layer Soil Transformation" and "Elephant Manifestation Divine Soil," etc.

Every three years, Zhao Xing would wake up once to fulfill his duty Guardian Art, striving to keep his luck value at a high level.

Three years after three years, Zhao Xing soon spent 120 years in his cave on Moon Spirit Peak.

On this day, Zhao Xing finished his cultivation and prepared to go out for inspection as usual.

Suddenly a gentle breeze blew, and it seemed as if there were sounds in the wind.

"Zhao Xing ~ Zhao Xing ~"

A gentle breeze enters the ear, and so does the sound.

Zhao Xing remained calm and continued flying.

He soon landed on a mountain peak and began to survey the terrain. But amidst the rhythm of the Earth Vein, he heard another message: "Zhao Xing, Zhao Shennong, please respond if you hear me~"

Zhao Xing still didn't react, so he pretended not to see it.

After he returned to his cave after making his rounds, a thought flashed through his mind.

This is a sign that someone is worshipping him.

This person was none other than He Chengzi, who had previously offered him incense and spirit offerings for five thousand years.

"Zhao Shennong ~ Please do not answer! Please do not answer!"

"This is a warning message: many gods are searching for your fleeting memories and your traces."

"I am currently in the 341st era before the Desolate Territory, aboard the Cosmic Ark. I am sending this message simply to remind you."

Zhao Xing dismissed the thought and did not respond to He Chengzi.

His face darkened; he hadn't expected the Evil God Faction to use such methods to search for him.

Is it the Heavenly Ji Thunder Mother Five Abyss Thunder God Department, or the Bookless Divine King City, or the Tianshan Beast God, or the Undying Nether God's forces?

Zhao Xing couldn't figure it out, because he had created the Ten Directions Mountain Scripture, and even an Evil God would probably want to find him.

"There are trackers on the Cosmic Ark, and probably in other Space-Time Territory as well. This is truly a massive search." Bowei laughed. "The effort put into tracing Qing Yuzi is probably limited to this level."

Zhao Xing remained calm, saying casually, "If no one's chasing me, wouldn't it be a waste to have a protector for me?"

"I haven't seen the elders make a move yet; on the contrary, I hope some powerful pursuers will come."

"Elder, you shouldn't have any problem taking on ten opponents of the same level, right?"

Seeing that Bowei Zhao Xing remained calm, Bowei's smile faded. "You'd better stay hidden and not reveal your identity. If I make a move, you'll be in a very bad situation."
