Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art

"Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art!"

With tear-filled eyes, Long Yu stared at the five characters on the paper, her body trembling uncontrollably. The first few words struck Long Yu's ambitious and stubborn heart.

"The Nine-Five refers to the Emperor, who wields power over the world, gathers the world's fortune, and refines the Emperor's Qi of the Nine-Five to achieve great prosperity!"

The very first sentence ignited Long Yu's deepest desire for power. Born a princess in an imperial family, Long Yu outwardly yearned for cultivation, but inwardly, she craved power even more. It had to be said that although the Long family was a mere puppet, Long Yu had cultivated profound cunning and schemes from a young age!

Even though she was a woman, this did not diminish Long Yu's fervor for power. In fact, her desire to cultivate was precisely to gain the respect of others through absolute strength. In this world of cultivation, even secular imperial families needed a certain level of cultivation to command respect. Previously, her aptitude was extremely mediocre, and even the Martial Realm had trapped her. How could she possibly pursue power?

However, the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art gave her hope. This Spirit Art gathered the world's fortune, which meant that even with mediocre aptitude, it wouldn't matter. As long as she ascended the pinnacle of power step by step and used her authority to govern the world, she could refine the Emperor's Qi of the Nine-Five.

Although she didn't know what kind of Spirit Art the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art was, it gave Long Yu hope and stirred her deepest desire for power.

For a moment, Long Yu thought of many things, fantasizing about using the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art to reach the apex of power step by step.

But not long after, Long Yu's pupils contracted sharply, and a chill ran down her spine.

Could it be... he saw her desire for power? Could it be... he knew what she truly wanted?

What a terrifying person!!

Long Yu believed she hadn't mentioned anything about power before, yet Qin Yu saw through her at a glance, directly piercing her deepest thoughts. Such insight was not something an ordinary person possessed. In fact, it could be said that no one besides Qin Yu had ever perceived her inner thoughts.

Despite her shock, Long Yu felt no fear. Since Qin Yu had seen through her and given her the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art, it meant he was willing to see her become an Emperor!

The thought of one day becoming the Nine-Five Emperor and wielding power over the world made Long Yu's cheeks flush crimson. Determination blazed in her eyes, and she felt both gratitude and awe towards Qin Yu.

"Brother Qin, Long Yu will not disappoint you."

Actually, Qin Yu hesitated for a moment when he gave the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art to Long Yu. He had seen this Spirit Art in the Tian Qi Sect's Library Pavilion. Although the Spirit Art didn't mention the ultimate achievement upon reaching its peak, Qin Yu could imagine how terrifying it would be.

In the Star Realm, Spirit Arts were divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow, with Heaven being the highest and Yellow the lowest.

Although the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art was a Heaven-level Spirit Art, not Dao or Immortal level, Qin Yu could imagine its potential. In other words, the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art was merely a gateway, opening a door for Long Yu to the path of an Emperor. How much popular fortune she could gather and how much Emperor's Qi of the Nine-Five she could refine in the future would depend on her own destiny.

Regarding Long Yu, Qin Yu was merely touched by her two instances of assistance; it wasn't enough for him to give her the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art. He had also considered giving her a method for Bone Marrow Tempering, which could improve her situation. However, the intense fervor and determination Long Yu had previously displayed made Qin Yu change his mind. He had seen such a look before in the Tian Qi Sect, on one of his personal attendants named Qing Xu, just like Wang Qing!

Just as Qin Yu had given his last self-created Spirit Art to Qing Xu, that Art was named the Void Dao Art!

Although there were no records of Qing Xu in the ancient texts of the Qin Family's Library Pavilion, Qin Yu was certain that if Qing Xu hadn't died young, his achievements would have surpassed Wang Qing's!

Now, Qin Yu saw a similar look in Long Yu, which moved him. Qin Yu also wanted to give Long Yu an opportunity. Whether Long Yu succeeded or not, he would lose nothing. If Long Yu did succeed, then what he would gain would be far more than just a Spirit Art. In that case, why wouldn't he do it? This was the same mindset he held for Xiao Tao and Xiao Hua.

One could say that Qin Yu was indirectly investing. Although Long Yu's aptitude was mediocre, her spirit was something many lacked. Furthermore, if Qin Yu wanted to strengthen himself, simply improving himself was not enough; he needed to expand his network. Therefore, he valued Long Yu and gave her the Nine-Five Prosperous Fortune Art.

Perhaps, the current Qin Yu couldn't imagine that a single thought of his would create such a terrifying and peerless female Emperor!

As Qin Yu disguised himself, bought some necessities, and left Tianwu Main City, Qin Xue arrived at the Myriad Phenomena Pill Shop with an envelope. She was actually very nervous. She suddenly remembered the young man surnamed Chen who had killed Qin Yong and felt a vague sense of familiarity and closeness towards him, which made Qin Xue suspicious.

Moreover, although she was an inexperienced young girl, she was also intelligent. She had heard that Cui Shuo had brought people to the Myriad Phenomena Pill Shop and returned defeated, so she naturally knew that the Myriad Phenomena Pill Shop was extraordinary.

But why would her brother want her to come here? Qin Xue thought of the young man surnamed Chen and had a vague guess in her heart.

"H-hello, I'm looking for Alchemist Zi Xun'er," Qin Xue said, tightly clutching the envelope, to a female staff member at the Myriad Phenomena Pill Shop.

The female staff member eyed Qin Xue suspiciously. Seeing Qin Xue's timid demeanor, she frowned slightly, feeling a bit impatient. With the grand event approaching and Tianwu Main City being a melting pot of people, she had to deal with several people looking for Zi Xun'er every day. Qin Xue's attire didn't suggest she was a disciple of a major sect, so the staff member impatiently asked, "What do you want with Alchemist Zi?"

Qin Xue was taken aback. Qin Yu had only told her to give the envelope to Zi Xun'er and relay a message, but he hadn't said anything else. After a long hesitation, Qin Xue whispered, "I'm here on behalf of my brother... to deliver some things and a message to her."

Due to the noise in the pill shop, the female staff member didn't hear clearly. Coupled with her impatience, she raised her voice, speaking with a slight sharpness, "What do you want??" Because the pronunciation of "want" was not heavy and the noise was too loud, others heard it as "What are you doing?"

The sharp voice attracted the attention of many people around, and even more so, it caught the attention of several youths who had just entered the pill shop. These youths were Cui Shuo, Qin Yong, and Qin Feng!

Ever since he had almost offended Zi Xun'er last time, Cui Shuo had been uneasy. Later, he was injured by Qin Yu and had his hand broken by Qin Zhan. Cui Shuo had been recovering from his injuries these past few days and had only just recovered yesterday. Today, he had prepared a grand gift to apologize.

Since this matter was caused by Qin Yong and Qin Feng, he brought them along, hoping that Zi Xun'er would understand his ignorance and dismiss her misunderstanding. Of course, if he could obtain a pill from Zi Xun'er that could temporarily boost his strength, that would be even better.

As for Qin Yong and Qin Feng, excitement and nervousness flickered across their faces. Ever since their hands and feet were broken by Qin Yu last time, they had been recuperating at the Cui family. The two had harbored extreme hatred towards Qin Yu these past few days, and they also hated Qin Zhan, but Qin Yu's ferocity made them both extremely fearful. Today, upon hearing that they were going to apologize to the mysterious Alchemist Zi, both felt excited. Especially Qin Feng, who hoped to use Cui Shuo to resolve the misunderstanding between them. Moreover, if he could connect with Zi Xun'er, Qin Feng would willingly be her errand boy, even willing to be a dog.

At this moment, the three were attracted by the sharp voice and looked up. When they saw Qin Xue, holding an envelope with a timid expression, their faces turned grim. Especially Cui Shuo, whose eyes held a cruel glint.

Because of the battle scheduled for five and a half months later, Cui Shuo could not do anything to Qin Yu within these five and a half months, nor could he even touch the Qin family. If anything happened to Qin Yu or the Qin family, it would be attributed to his Cui family. Furthermore, his grandfather Cui Hong had specifically instructed him not to do so. Although he couldn't touch Qin Yu or the Qin family, this Qin Xue... Cui Shuo immediately gave Qin Yong a look.

Qin Yong, who had also transferred his hatred for Qin Yu to Qin Xue, gave a nod and, with a cold sneer, walked towards Qin Xue. He directly slapped her across the face and said sternly, "What do you think you are? What kind of place is this? Is it a place for you to cause trouble??"
