A colossal biological warship, resembling both a whale and a roc, loomed across the sky.

The enormous shadow cast by the projection completely obscured a large portion of the Golden City.

Onboard the ship.

Yang Shexing, wearing a cloak, sat quietly without raising his head.

"So, even now, the exact list of members of the Gaotian Association hasn't been found yet?"

"Sir, this..."

Someone smiled bitterly:

"According to the model's estimates, the Gaotian Association has over a thousand members, but even if it were ten thousand, it wouldn't be much in the vast Golden City, let alone the entire Golden Province?"

After pausing for a moment, he continued:

"The Gaotian Association Society operates at two extremes: it is very high-profile overall, with [the True Person] causing quite a stir, but its members are very low-key."

"They are like a sacred mountain buried in the water, its peak piercing the surface and soaring high, but mostly hidden in the shadows beneath the water's surface."

"This is still a secret organization after all."

Yang Shexing's expression remained unchanged as he toyed with two smooth, jade-like walnuts in his hands.

"Has Governor Su still not shown up?"

"No, he doesn't concern himself with politics anymore. The power in the Golden Province is in the hands of a woman named Ruan Yutu —but she hasn't shown her face to us either."

Yang Shexing snorted and said coldly:

"That old fox Su Qiansuan probably doesn't even think much of us. There's no point in waiting here. Let's go to Chongyang Festival."

A mocking smile spread across his face.

"This old bastard's rebellious intentions are impossible to conceal; he's using a province as a pretext for self-aggrandizement. Hmph, what if we seize Chongyang?"

The enormous biological warship emitted a cry that sounded like a whale or a roc, slowly turning and stirring up a storm.

Someone whispered:

"Sir, should we inform Chongyang to prepare a proper welcome?"

"Nature."

Yang Shexing nodded, his eyes slightly lowered, as if deep in thought, and casually said:

"Give me a list of people to be invited for the Double Ninth Festival."

He took the list and carefully flipped through it, raising an eyebrow and tapping on it with his finger.

"What is Hu Zhongli, the Golden Councilor from the Waiting Area, doing in Chongyang? He's been staying for a whole month."

"And the director of the Public Security Bureau, Zhang Fusheng?"

He squinted:

"At 25, after seven years undercover, and less than half a month after returning to the team, he has already achieved a three-level jump in his personal identity. Is there no problem with that?"

Someone asked:

"Lord Yang, what do you mean?"

"These two individuals under close observation are very likely members of the Gaotian Association. According to information from the Research Institute, the various measurement data in Chongyang City are quite strange, suggesting it may be the Gaotian Association's headquarters."

Yang Shexing's gaze was sharp:

"I even think that this Gaotian Association have infiltrated the upper echelons of Chongyang."

"Out of ten people, there might be one or two members of the Gaotian Association."

Someone suggested:

"Should we give Chongyang a complete overhaul?"

"No."

Yang Shexing vehemently denied it, squinting as he said:

"Gaotian Association, but we can't afford to be estranged from it either. Our main approach should be to keep them in check and prevent them Gaotian Association becoming too arrogant."

"They need to understand that the Federation is the world, and which noble family doesn't have a deity overseeing it?"

The attendant nodded and asked cautiously:

"Sir, who should we start with?"

Yang Shexing pondered for a moment and said:

"Hu Zhongli is a good candidate. He has a high position and is likely a member of the Gaotian Association, but there are rumors that he has already broken through to the Xiantian realm?"

As he spoke,

A hint of apprehension flashed across Yang Shexing's face.

As someone born with innate abilities, I naturally have to be extremely cautious in my actions when facing other beings in the same environment.

The attendant said:

"It is indeed a Xiantian (innate) level, but sir, we have the Whale-Penguin Ship. Let alone a Xiantian, even Celestial Person would be unable to break in."

Whale Roc, a level 4 star beast, was born a god. Although it is now a corpse after being hunted, it still possesses terrifying abilities.

Celestial Person cannot break the skin of the Giant Whale-Peng.

Yang Shexing pondered for a moment, then made a decision:

"Since we're new here, we need to make a splash. Let's start with Hu Zhongli as an example, to make an example of him. As for Zhang Fusheng?"

He glanced casually at Zhang Fusheng's file:

"Even with a triple jump, he's still just a nobody. There's no point in trying to teach him a lesson. In fact, we should not only not teach him a lesson, but also win him over and reward him."

The attendant understood immediately:

"Spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones?"

Yang Shexing smiled:

"That is certainly true."

The Whale-Penguin Ship let out cries and roars, and with a flap of its wings spanning tens or even hundreds of miles, its massive form squeezed into the shipping lane.

At home.

The voice of the Miss Mingyue rang in my ears.

"The Heaven and Earth Chessboard was a gift from the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, so that my master could enter Kunlun Jade Void to play chess whenever he felt like it."

"Lifting this thing is neither difficult nor difficult."

Zhang Fusheng was in high spirits, his eyes shining brightly, like Kunlun Yuxu!

He said:

I would like to hear the details.

The voice of the Miss Mingyue came:

"First, you need to open ten Cave Heaven before you have enough power to lift the chessboard—but that only means you have enough power, not enough qualifications."

"Secondly, qualifications, and most importantly, you must learn the Path of Karma."

Zhang Fusheng blinked, and heard Miss Mingyue sigh softly:

"But the Path of Karma is not so easy to learn. Even in the ancient world where immortals and gods shone brightly, it was the rarest and most precious Secret Method."

"Often only those from the Kunlun Jade Void lineage are proficient in and skilled in this— Primordial Heavenly Venerate is the supreme being of the Path of Karma."

After a short while,

Miss Mingyue reminds you:

"You can try to collect some Secret Method of cause and effect, but most of them are not true Path of Karma. You must at least find a way to touch and manipulate cause and effect."

Zhang Fusheng licked his lips, and said, "Mmm."

So, what I'm lacking now is ten more Cave Heaven?

Disaster.

It's not difficult.

"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Miss Mingyue."

A gentle voice came from behind – "It's nothing, Young Master Zhang, you should rest early."

The link has been broken.

Zhang Fusheng jumped up from the sofa and paced back and forth.

Ten Cave Heaven.

"With my current talent, if I take one miraculous medicine every year, I can open a Cave Heaven in ten years; if I take one great medicine every year, I can open a Cave Heaven in at most fifty years."

A wry smile quickly appeared on his face:

"Unfortunately, contractual cultivation is purely ascetic practice. Without external assistance, even dietary supplements are impossible, let alone powerful elixirs."

Zhang Fusheng quickly estimated,

From this perspective, to create one's own Cave Heaven, it would require at least one or two hundred years of arduous cultivation.

If the remaining nine Cave Heaven are to be opened simultaneously?

At least a thousand years.

"It wasn't a long time, but unfortunately all the stock was used up, so I have to find enough people myself to complete the transaction."

Zhang Fusheng muttered to himself, "A thousand years is the minimum, but I'm afraid it might not be possible."

After all, resources are of paramount importance in the path of cultivation.

Although Contract Book can shorten centuries to a mere instant, this process is conducted without the support of various resources.

The cultivation speed will be much slower.

"However, it's only October now. Even using the slowest calculation, a month is enough for me to accumulate a thousand years."

When Zhang Fusheng was discussing the Contract Book, his gaze suddenly became profound.

In Chongyang City, there aren't many grandmasters or Great Grandmaster who are frustrated and unfulfilled, but Martial Arts Master and ordinary martial artists?

There really was a huge pile.

He entered the divine realm again, went into the Five Villages Temple, and practiced a Secret Method taught to him by the Miss Mingyue.

With a specific frequency and amplitude, it vibrates the power of heaven and earth, tentatively reaching out to touch the blood of the gods.

It was a success.

This time, the dazzling Immortal Light and vast sea of energy within the Divine Blood did not harm him.

On the contrary, soothed by the special rhythm, the enormous energy became docile and peaceful, and with a gentle grasp, it actually held the divine blood in its hand.

"What a peculiar Secret Method."

Zhang Fusheng murmured that the Secret Method Miss Mingyue taught him was called "Zhenghe," and it wasn't complicated; in fact, it was quite simple.

But its effects are extraordinary; it can soothe the restless energy and even the power of heaven and earth.

"A total of thirteen drops of divine blood, each drop containing an energy ocean probably equivalent to that of a peak innate being!"

He was amazed, and his perception of the power of the gods became increasingly clear.

"Nine Cave Heaven, I only need nine drops of Divine Blood."

Zhang Fusheng's mind raced, and with a sudden thought, the Sky Patrol Chariot and the divine bow appeared in his mind.

Both are 'Great Magic Artifact' corresponding to the Innate Great Realm level, and are imitations of a certain Supreme Treasure.

"The vessel serves to protect the Way."

Zhang Fusheng murmured in a low voice, having also gained some understanding of the artifacts. Artifacts from the old world were collectively called Supreme Treasure —although the differences in their quality were frighteningly large.

The classification of artifacts other than Supreme Treasure is much more detailed.

At the Grandmaster and Great Grandmaster levels, one can initially control [Law Artifact], and then at the Innate level, one can fully control [Great Magic Artifact].

Then there are the [Heavenly Human Weapon], capable of causing cataclysmic changes in the heavens and earth, possessing terrifying power.

Above that are the so-called Divine Artifact.

"Divine Artifact represent the limit of what can be forged in this world; even more powerful artifacts come from the Supreme Treasure of the ancient world."

A faint smile appeared on Zhang Fusheng's face.

Others are like that, but I'm different.

He reached out and pushed, and two drops of divine blood were smeared on the Sky Patrol Chariot and the Divine Bow, respectively, causing a burst of rich Immortal Light to erupt.

Immediately,

Zhang Fusheng entered the Eight Sceneries Palace, sat upright on a futon, and with his infinitely high status, skillfully manipulated the two great artifacts, slowly approaching the Six Ding Divine Fire.

Once they get close enough to reach a critical point, the large vessel will begin to melt.

"I'll try being a weapon refiner too."

Zhang Fusheng muttered to himself, plucked the Other Shore Flower, and took away the well water and soil from under the Ginseng Fruit Tree in Five Villages Temple.

Sensing the faint, indistinct Incense and Fire Prayer Power, a small amount is drawn in, accompanied by changes, well water, and sacred soil.

In addition, Exotic Earth from the Land of Exotic Treasures was also thrown into the two large artifacts that were being forged.

"My darling!"

Zhang Fusheng was overjoyed. The sacred soil he had taken from beneath the Ginseng Fruit Tree only began to show signs of melting when it was within three meters of the Six Ding Divine Fire.

The other large-scale plants, Other Shore Flower, and Exotic Earth must all be stopped at a distance of twenty or thirty meters.

Once the immortal soil and other substances were melted into smoke and mist, and once the two great artifacts were half-melted...

Zhang Fusheng filled it with all sorts of things.

Not forgetting to borrow the Immortal Dao Rhyme from the Heaven and Earth Tablet, they carefully engraved mysterious patterns inside the two half-melted artifacts.

Depicted in it,

It is the method of [Karma Parallel], [purging] and [Palm Touching Karma], and also includes the Great Teleportation Technique and various True Intention.

In the end, he even gritted his teeth and engraved the entire Taiyi Chapter into it!

'Boom!!'

The two massive artifacts, now in their embryonic stage, were radiating astonishing Immortal Light, clearly far from being ordinary Great Magic Artifact; they had at least reached the level of Heavenly Human Weapon!

Then.

Zhang Fusheng discovered a very serious problem.

He didn't know how to reshape the two embryos.

After a moment of contemplation,

Zhang Fusheng finally summoned the dark mist from the Helplessness Bridge, along with two wisps of killing intent borrowed from the Nail Head Seven Arrows Book.

Pour the water onto the vessel blank at the same time!

The mist rose and swirled.

After it had completely cooled down, two brand-new artifacts appeared before our eyes— the Divine Bow and Chariot.

Stepping out of the Eight Sceneries Palace, a wave of the hand summons the divine chariot to rumble forth.

Zhang Fusheng stepped inside, and the golden chariot swayed slightly, surrounded by auspicious clouds.

That immortal bow was even more astonishing; once the bowstring was drawn, even before an arrow was nocked, there was already a sense that the bow would surely hit its target!

"These two great artifacts are clearly far beyond the level of Great Magic Artifact; they are at least top-tier Celestial Person weapons."

"But why can I still handle it perfectly?"

Was Zhang Fusheng's murmur because he himself had forged it?

Regardless of what they were originally modeled after before the bow and chariot, things are now vastly different.

He laughed loudly, but then suddenly had another whim.

Someone's own karma is trembling.

"I seem to"

Zhang Fusheng stroked the divine carriage, his eyes shining brightly:

"Can one descend directly via a divine chariot, following the causal connection?"

"The Great Teleportation Technique, the parallel Karma Parallel, coupled with the Palm Touching Karma and the complete Taiyi Chapter —can this really be achieved? No, that's not right."

He looked at the Six Ding Divine Fire, which resembled flowing Rosy Clouds, and suddenly understood.

The Six Ding Divine Fire seemed to have perfectly forged this hodgepodge together, synergizing them to the extreme and even greatly amplifying their effects!

The divine chariot glowed, Zhang Fusheng silently sensed the causal connection that suddenly trembled.

It's Li Yiyi and the others.
