Chapter 365: New functions and Qing Yuzi's real estate!
The panel fluctuated like a water curtain, appearing in front of Zhao Xing with a brand-new look.
【Name: Zhao Xing】
【Profession: Agricultural Official】
【Luck: Yan Nine】
【Physical Body: Mid-Ascension Realm】
【Divine Soul: Peak Ascension Realm】
【Dao Field: World-Star Third Grade】
【Age: 992】
【Remaining Lifespan: 7008 years】
"So my physical body is still in the mid-Ascension Realm?" Zhao Xing looked at the new panel and suddenly realized.
After reaching the Ascension Realm, due to the lack of cultivation methods, he and everyone in the Great Zhou were the same, not knowing how to cultivate further.
The feeling was that he felt his body could no longer grow bigger or stronger, reaching a certain height and stopping growth.
However, after coming to the Xuanling Star Domain, this feeling of "growth" appeared again, because the spiritual energy index suddenly increased.
Even if he didn't know how to cultivate, being in such a rich spiritual energy environment would allow him to continue growing slowly.
The divine soul realm had reached the peak of the Ascension Realm long ago.
"Dao Field, this is an important indicator of the magic path."
"It is the level of control over the origin of spiritual energy, evolved from the original rule domain, usually meaning the range of magic."
World-Star First Grade proves that the casting range of the magic path can reach the size of a world-star or a small world.
For example, in the Xuanhuang World, Zhao Xing threw out the Kunyuan Hoe and made a Dao-establishing wish, which could radiate over most of the Xuanhuang World.
"World-stars and small worlds also have sizes and strengths."
"World-Star Third Grade proves the strength of my comprehension of Dao. Magic can take effect in low-grade world-stars, and the covered area is enough to spread out completely in low-grade world-stars." Zhao Xing secretly thought.
If it were the martial artist path, it would not display 【Dao Field】 but 【Golden Body】.
Golden Body reaching World-Star Third Grade usually refers to being able to ignore the pressure of low-grade world-stars and fully exert one's golden body height and fully exert one's strength in low-grade world-stars.
"World-Star Third Grade Dao Field, entering a medium-grade world-star, the covered area will be greatly compressed. World-Star Third Grade Golden Body, entering a medium-grade world-star, if it was originally a ten-thousand-zhang golden body, it will be suppressed to less than ten thousand zhang, and its strength will also be weakened."
"Age 992, have I lived for nearly a thousand years? But half of it was spent in the World-Boat."
"Remaining lifespan is 7008, hmm? It changed again." Zhao Xing found that as he breathed the spiritual energy here, the remaining lifespan value jumped to 7009.
"It's truly immortal energy. Adding a year with one breath." Zhao Xing smiled.
How important is the territory of survival? It can be fully reflected from the lifespan.
They were now in the hinterland of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom. As long as they could settle down, even without cultivation, the Ascension Realm could easily live for a few thousand more years.
It's no wonder those strong figures want to squeeze into the ancient kingdom; anyone who can add life wants to come!
It's no wonder the ancient kingdom strictly controls the incoming population. If too many people are let in, one day the spiritual energy index of the star system will also drop. In that way, isn't it robbing the lifespan of the incoming population?
"The struggle for survival space is truly a life-and-death matter." Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh.
He continued to look down, and the magic on the panel had changed a lot.
The names of the ultimate laws had also changed, becoming Heavenly Law and Source Law. However, there was nothing to see, just changing the name.
"Heavenly Time Law and Earthly Advantage Law are basically ultimate perfection, but the four fundamental magic techniques of the Self School don't even have ultimate."
Why are the magic techniques of the Self School so difficult to create? The reason is that it involves the Life Dao.
Whether it is accelerating plant growth or breaking the shackles of plant life, it is breaking the cosmic rules in the dark.
So it is very difficult to cultivate, but it is very strong once cultivated.
Of course, the Self School magic techniques here refer to cultivation methods.
Combat methods are not included, such as Soldier-Using Divine Decision and Four Seasons Divine Brilliance. The roots of these magic techniques do not break the life shackles of plant soldiers, making them stronger or accelerating growth.
Such combat methods are just using those plant lives that are already very strong to fight.
Supernatural powers still show abnormal.
The Three God Fate Palace is a passive amplification skill, so it can take effect in a stable void. The Star Eye Technique is active, and based on the special soul of the Three God Fate Palace, it can also be used.
The Eight Epochs Purple Light cannot be used in either stable or unstable void.
Below the magic list is the 【Treasure List】.
However, it only displays the treasures Zhao Xing carries.
"In the Xuanhuang World, the treasures I obtained have a few that are very valuable even in the cosmic version."
"First is the Thunder Law Sword. After unsealing the first layer, I found it is at least at the level of a World-Star Dao Weapon."
"Second is the Cangwu Top Leaf, a top-grade rare treasure, comparable to the value of a World-Star Dao Weapon, possessing powerful recovery power, which can reshape the physical body."
"Third is the Star Fate Strategy, this World-Star Dao Weapon, which was also left by Qing Yuzi."
"Fourth is the Void-Escaping Soul Ring, a top-grade Star Dao Weapon, a treasure left by Fairy Su. Although it is only top-grade and has not reached the level of a World-Star Dao Weapon, it is a good thing for life-saving for the magic path."
The above are equipment, and there are two other treasures, namely the Demon Cloud Vine and the Heavenly Cooing Beast.
"'Heavenly Cooing Beast', frozen, although it is only in the growth stage, it has the strength of the first realm of the Origin, and as long as it grows to the second realm, the Heavenly Cooing Beast can cast its innate supernatural power to help farm."
"The Demon Cloud Vine has a higher ceiling. Just in the seedling stage, it has the strength of the first realm of the Origin! And in the seedling stage, it has two innate supernatural powers."
Even if Nalan De sent one hundred top-grade rare treasures, the value of the things in his hands was still far exceeding what Nalan De sent.
"The Great View World, Sun-Moon Palace, Universe Bag, and Heavenly Qi Soul Tool left by Qing Yuzi are also crafts of the ancient kingdom, which can be sold for a lot of money."
There are also many valuable treasures brought by the Great Zhou, which can be sold for the price of a World-Star Dao Weapon. For example, the Great Dream Academy, which is enough to cover a world, can of course be sold for the price of a World-Star Dao Weapon.
"There are at least ten things brought by the Great Zhou that can be sold for the price of a World-Star Dao Weapon. This wealth is astonishing."
If an Ascension Realm expert takes so many treasures, whoever robs them will make a fortune.
After all, the Ascension Realm only uses Star Dao Weapons. World-Star Dao Weapons are things that can only be fully exerted by the Origin Realm.
"The one hundred top-grade Star Dao Weapons that Nalan De carefully selected include equipment as well as one-time consumables, pills, and talismans, and some are even out-of-print goods."
"Selling them slowly is equivalent to about one and a half low-grade World-Star Dao Weapons." Zhao Xing evaluated. "Selling them urgently is also equivalent to a low-grade World-Star Dao Weapon."
Nalan De can also be considered to have a big hand.
A World-Star Dao Weapon for the second realm of the Origin is equivalent to the importance of a car and a house to ordinary people.
People directly send a set of houses, which of course counts as a big hand.
Nalan De still felt it was worth it, because once his nephew could enter the Purple God Prefecture, it would be equivalent to going to a first-class school in the ancient kingdom, plus solving employment.
"The upgraded panel also has two new functions." Zhao Xing looked at the bottom right corner of the panel.
Detection function and map function.
"After the upgrade, the player has one active and one passive function in the cosmic version. These two functions greatly enhance the ability to save lives." Zhao Xing smiled.
With a thought, the detection function was immediately activated, and a virtual translucent frame appeared in front of him.
Zhao Xing's gaze moved, and the transparent detection frame moved with it.
He aimed at Xia Jing.
The next moment, a string of data was displayed on the detection frame.
【Name: Xia Jing】
【Profession: Qi Sect】
【Luck: Yan Eight】
【Realm: Mid-Ascension Realm】
【Golden Body: World-Star First Grade】
【Age: 996】
【Remaining Lifespan: 5008 years】
"Xia Jing is the Qi Sect. His physical body and divine soul are integrated, so the divine soul will not be displayed separately."
"His Golden Body is World-Star First Grade, which is about ten thousand zhang, the lowest threshold."
"Remaining lifespan is five thousand years?"
Leaving the restrictions of the small world or world-star and entering the spiritual energy place, the lifespan of the Ascension Realm will continue to grow, and the specific amount depends on the environment.
The natural growth range will be very exaggerated, and it will grow to the limit of 100, 00 years in the following time.
Natural growth without paying any price reaches 100, 00 years.
If you want to continue living, you have to consider non-natural growth factors.
Either break through, break through to the Origin Realm, and at least have a natural lifespan of 1. million years in an epoch.
Or take pills, there are many pills and treasures that prolong life, which can greatly lengthen lifespan. Or use life-extending treasures, the classic one is the Epoch House, but the Epoch House has too many defects.
Living life is not just about the time of existence, but should also include life activities. Epoch House or similar ice-sealing methods are not regarded as life extension.
【Heaven-level Martial Arts (Ultimate Martial Arts): Rhinoceros Divine Finger, World-Shaking Emperor Fist, One Qi Hunyuan, Gluttonous Heaven, Star-Plucking Hand, Green Dragon Dharma Image, Martial God Descent.】
"The Crown Prince's self-created martial arts still have some style." Zhao Xing looked at Xia Jing's martial arts and couldn't help but smile.
He glanced at Ye Yukong's self-created martial arts, something like "Ultimate Must-Kill," "World-Destroying Three Swords," which was very middle-school.
But Ye Yukong felt that such names were very domineering. It could only be said that different people have different tastes.
"The active detection function is determined by my level. The higher I go, the less information I get." Zhao Xing secretly thought.
"I aim the detection frame at 'Su Qin' or 'Mu Luo', and the information I get, except for the name, is all question marks."
As for the Purple Moon Prefecture Master? That doesn't even show the name, and the detection frame has no reaction at all.
"Su Qin and Mu Luo are both in the third realm. Crossing three realms, the information is very little."
"For the Dao Domain Realm, it is completely invalid."
Invalid also has the benefits of being invalid. At least Zhao Xing can judge: this is a strong figure far beyond himself.
This function is very practical and can largely avoid players messing around and provoking some people who can't be provoked.
The point is that this kind of detection will not attract the attention of big shots. Zhao Xing stares at Mu Luo and Su Qin, and the other party is completely unaware.
If you use Soul Heavenly Vision and Star Eye Technique, the other party will probably be able to detect it immediately.
This way is very impolite. If you dare to use this way to look at big shots, maybe people will say "what are you looking at," and then kill you.
The panel's detection function is very good. "Injury-free peeping" is too wonderful!
"The active detection function also has a good effect when fighting the enemy."
"However, it still has some defects. If the enemy's speed is too fast and exceeds my vision capture speed, I will die before I react."
"Second, you can't look at dead things. Wanting to rely on it to pick up leaks in the auction market won't work."
"Second, passive map function." Zhao Xing looked at the second new function.
【You have entered the Great Ye Dynasty, Tianjing Star, Coordinates: Moon 23. Sun 34. Military Gate 55.】
【You have entered the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, Taoyuan Star, Coordinates: Moon 153. Sun 248. Heaven Hook 5.】
【You have entered the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, Majia Star, Coordinates: Moon 2. Sun 34. Star Dou 155】
【……】
The passive map function is that after the player enters a certain place, they get a name and record the coordinates.
"Knowing where people are is a very strong function, especially for me." Zhao Xing secretly thought.
Exploration in the universe is most afraid of accidentally breaking into a dangerous place and then asking for help, but not knowing where you are.
Automatically recording map coordinates can also greatly improve the survival rate.
"Mechanical master's detectors also have similar functions, but they are far less powerful than the panel function. The age, lifespan, and skill display are not available in the mechanical master's detector. Most importantly, the panel will not be tampered with, while the tools built by mechanical masters have the risk of being tampered with by another mechanical master."
"The mechanical masters of the Infinite Ju Zi school are proper hackers. Zigu went undercover and returned, but gave the Southern Barbarians a heavy blow."
…………
【You have entered the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, Purple God Star System, Sea Gate Star District, Qingyu World-Star. (Attached coordinates)】
After Mu Luo World-Boat flew for more than half a month and transferred several times, it finally arrived at its destination.
Due to one of Qing Yuzi's last wishes, which was to bury his remains in his hometown.
So the Purple Moon Prefecture Master first came to the Qingyu World-Star within the Purple God Star System.
Zhao Xing and the others looked through the string window and soon saw a familiar planet, as well as the purple moon.
When accepting the inheritance and entering the state of enlightenment, he had seen the Qingyu Star and that purple moon.
The reason why a world-star is called a world-star is that it has both the characteristics of a small world and the characteristics of a planet.
Zhao Xing and the others first saw the characteristics of a small world: a layer of blurry gaseous boundary wall that appeared cyan.
It is an oblate elliptical shape, like a leaf.
Immediately after, the World-Boat crossed the outer boundary wall and saw the planet's land inside.
Qing Yuzi has a high status in the Purple Moon Prefecture Master's lineage. His hometown world-star was originally just a low-grade small world-star, but later it underwent long-term transformation and became a high-grade world-star.
The moment he saw this world-star, Zhao Xing first thought of three words: real estate.
Among Qing Yuzi's inheritance, the heavy treasures he carried with him were exploded when he was pursued by enemies, used to save his life.
All the things he left in the Xuanhuang World only counted as big assets for the Heavenly Cooing Beast, Star Fate Strategy, and Cangwu Top Leaf. (The World-Boat power cabin belongs to Puta).
During this period of time, Zhao Xing learned about Qing Yuzi's life through "Su Qin."
"Qing Yu Junior Brother's family members all passed away before Qing Yuzi stepped into the second realm of the Origin."
"He also has no descendants, because he was very young at the time, so the only relative is the teacher." Su Qin chatted with Zhao Xing. "Theoretically speaking, now you are the most qualified to inherit this Qingyu World-Star."
"Me? Inherit this high-grade world-star of Senior Qing Yuzi?" Zhao Xing was stunned.
"A direct disciple, of course, has the right of inheritance. The teacher-disciple relationship is recognized as a close relationship anywhere in the universe. Because relatives may not live long, but the relationship between teacher and disciple can last for a long time."
"In the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, direct disciples are qualified to inherit the teacher's assets. This is written into the law, and the priority is not low." Su Qin's voice was ethereal, "If you are willing, you can apply to the relevant departments of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom."
"Of course, this is after the teacher announces Qing Yuzi's death."
Zhao Xing had never thought about these things before, because he didn't know if Qing Yuzi had any family members who inherited the Qingyu World-Star.
Until now, he knew.
Qing Yuzi had never been judged as a deceased person, so in fact, the Qingyu World-Star had not been inherited by anyone and was still under Qing Yuzi's name.
During the more than one epoch that Qing Yuzi was missing, his real estate had been managed by his fellow disciples, as assigned by the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture.
Was a heaven-sent fortune about to fall into his lap?
"Junior Brother Qing Yuzi and Junior Sister Wan'er both have quite a few assets within the Purple God Prefecture," Su Qin said slowly.
"Junior Sister Wan'er still has a family, so it's hard to say how much can be divided, but Junior Brother Qing Yuzi—he possesses one high-grade world-star and over three hundred small world-stars and star-continents."
"The wealth generated by these assets over an epoch has all been deposited into his account."
"You only need to apply, and it will be yours," Su Qin smiled. "Congratulations, Nephew Zhao."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xing immediately became vigilant: "I must not show greed. This might be a test from the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture. Otherwise, why would he wait until now to send Su Qin to talk to me about this?"
Besides, there must be a trap. The fellow disciples have managed it for an epoch; don't they have their own ideas now?
Qing Yuzi was my dear junior brother; Master, how could you just hand his assets over to an outsider?
Zhao Xing immediately said, "Uncle, I am young and ignorant. To have received Teacher's inheritance and entered the Purple God Prefecture is already a great favor. I have never thought about these things, nor do I dare to."
Su Qin nodded slightly, said nothing more, and walked away on her own.
She arrived at the secret chamber of the Mu Luo world-boat to pay respects to the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture.
"Uncle, I have already spoken with Zhao Xing."
"What did he say?" the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture asked indifferently.
"He said he does not want it, nor does he dare to take it," Su Qin replied. "However, I have already told him the method to contest the inheritance. If he says one thing but means another and applies to the Ancient Kingdom, we will certainly know."
"Hmm," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture nodded. "Proceed as I said before."
"If he can resist the temptation for three thousand years without applying to contest the inheritance, and also breaks through to the Origin Realm, then all of this shall belong to him."
The Master of Purple Moon Prefecture had many things to do, such as dealing with the culprit who caused Qing Yuzi to die in the Profound Yellow World—the Dongyan Ancient Clan. He certainly had to investigate it clearly and avenge his disciple.
A single seclusion in the Dao Domain Realm could last over ten thousand years. Since the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture was going to handle matters, he certainly wouldn't appear often, so he naturally had to arrange everything in advance.
"If Yu'er planted a good cause, then I shall let him have a good fruit."
"If he does not fight or snatch, I will give it to him instead."
"If he is a bad fruit with crooked intentions, then I will reclaim the Purple Light divine ability inheritance he learned and expel him from the Purple God Prefecture," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture said indifferently. "After the funeral is over, release the news that I have no intention of handing Yu'er's assets to Zhao Xing."
"As for the matter regarding Wan'er, I will discuss it with your teacher."
"Yes, this disciple understands."
Zhao Xing was not the only one who learned that he had the right of inheritance.
Zi Gu and the high officials of the Great Zhou also knew a little. After all, they hadn't spent all these days on the world-boat in vain; they had been studying, including the inheritance laws of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom.
"Big Brother, I have the right to inherit Puta's legacy!" Zi Gu said excitedly. "Do you know how many world-stars Puta owned?"
Zhao Xing quietly watched the excited Zi Gu, who continued, "Eighty-six! A full eighty small world-stars, and among them, five are medium-grade world-stars!"
"My god, do you know what a huge fortune this is? Puta didn't have any close relatives; there is almost no one qualified to compete with me! As soon as the news of Puta's death is announced, I will..."
"Shut up!" Zhao Xing interrupted Zi Gu's daydreaming. "Don't let wealth cloud your judgment!"
Please... add to... your collection_()
"Big Brother, wh-what do you mean?" Zi Gu was stunned.
"Use your brain and think carefully. If you had a disciple who died outside, and one day a stranger returned, claiming to be your disciple's successor and wanting to inherit your disciple's legacy, what would your reaction be?"
Zi Gu tilted his head: "If this grand-disciple met my expectations, then I'd let him inherit it."
Zhao Xing shook his head; Zi Gu was truly too naive. "Use your brain and think about it, but remember, even if you want to, never show it."
"Don't blame me for not warning you. Aside from returning the remains, you and I are strangers to those big shots in the Purple God Prefecture—strangers with absolutely no emotional foundation!"
Zhao Xing didn't say too much, fearing they were being monitored, so he soon parted ways with Zi Gu.
As for the people of the Great Zhou, Zhao Xing also gave a stern warning: no discussing the inheritance, and certainly no harboring any improper thoughts.
Master Zhao didn't know what kind of person the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture was, nor did he have experience dealing with him.
But he had plenty of experience dealing with the Emperor!
The Master of Purple Moon Prefecture could be viewed exactly like an Emperor; when it came to the inheritance of the three, he could decide everything with a single word.
And whenever inheritance rights were involved, the Emperor's principle was always the same: what I give you is yours; you cannot ask for it proactively, and you certainly cannot snatch it!
The people of the Great Zhou soon understood the intent behind Zhao Xing's warning.
After all, who hadn't spent time with Emperor Jing?
Now, the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture was equivalent to Emperor Jing. If Zi Gu and Zhao Xing dared to harbor crooked thoughts and use the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom's inheritance laws to fight for the legacy, it would be equivalent to colluding with frontier officials to force the throne.
Looking at it from another angle, everything became clear.
But Zi Gu was still somewhat unwilling. He sought out Zhao Xing again: "Big Brother, is there really no chance? So many world-stars, so much money..."
Zi Gu was truly naive. Zhao Xing didn't know how he had survived in the White Bone Sect before; had his brain short-circuited from refining artifacts later on?
"To the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture, Qing Yuzi was kin, but I, this grand-disciple, am just a stray he picked up, with no emotional foundation. Having a place to settle down is already enough; we cannot hope for too much."
"The Purple God Prefecture is a massive operation. When we come here, we must first look at the risks, and only then discuss the gains."
"What is the risk? The risk is my identity as a successor and your identity as a successor."
"Have you ever seen imperial princes and uncles fight for the right to rule? You haven't? A long time ago, in the universe, there was a country called the Great Ming Dynasty. There was an imperial prince named Zhu Yunwen, and his uncle was named Zhu Di..."
After listening for a while, Zi Gu was puzzled: "Big Brother, in your story, that Zhu-whatever-zhang was dead, but we have the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture right here, and he is alive."
"Exactly, so just wait patiently," Zhao Xing said. "If it's yours, it's yours. If it's not, don't harbor crooked thoughts. Don't go trying to apply for anything, and certainly don't collude with outsiders."
"There are outsiders?"
"There certainly will be," Zhao Xing transmitted his voice. "Someone will definitely appear and say they want to help you gain the right to rule, provided you break away from the Purple God Prefecture, or something like that."
How did Qing Yuzi, Puta, and Su Wan die? Zhao Xing didn't know.
But if he were the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture, he would certainly suspect that someone inside had colluded with the Dongyan Ancient Clan.
After all, exploring the Desolate Domain was a very secretive operation; how could they have just happened to run into the Dongyan Ancient Clan?
"In short, trust me. Just do nothing and listen to nothing."
"You must stay low-key and focus on cultivation. Whatever benefits are yours won't run away, and if they aren't yours, being anxious won't help."
The Mu Luo flying boat descended upon the Tianming Capital of the Qingyu world-star.
On the day the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture arrived, the powerhouses on this planet gathered.
The person responsible for helping manage Qing Yuzi's territory was named Zhaoyuan, a Third Realm Agronomist.
"Master," Zhaoyuan knelt respectfully: "This disciple welcomes Master."
"Zhaoyuan, notify your fellow disciples and have them rush to the Qingyu world-star," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture said. "Qing Yu'er has died; have them come to pay their respects."
"What?" Zhaoyuan's face was immediately filled with grief: "Junior Brother has fallen?"
The Master of Purple Moon Prefecture carefully watched Zhaoyuan's expression and nodded slightly: "Go quickly."
"Master, please grieve in moderation. I will go at once..."
Afterward, the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture looked at Zhao Xing: "You will stay by my side these days."
"Yes," Zhao Xing nodded respectfully.
Over the next month, many powerhouses arrived at the Qingyu world-star.
Most were from the Purple God Prefecture faction, mostly belonging to the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture's lineage, with a small number being Qing Yuzi's own friends.
Zhao Xing also met two other Dao Domain Realm experts here.
Puta's teacher, the Master of Tianqi Prefecture.
Su Wan's teacher, the Master of Yuqing Prefecture.
"These two Dao Domain Realm experts don't have such deep feelings for their disciples; at least, one can't see any sorrowful emotions," Zhao Xing secretly thought.
During the process of interacting with the Master of Tianqi Prefecture and the Master of Yuqing Prefecture, this was clearly perceptible.
The first reason was that they were not as close as the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture and Qing Yuzi.
The second reason was that Puta and Su Wan were only in the First Realm when they left, and they believed Puta and Su Wan had long since died in the Desolate Domain.
After all, the First Realm is the beginning of the Origin; at most, one lives for a little over an epoch.
How much time had passed since then? So they had long accepted the fact that their disciples were dead.
Only Qing Yuzi was already in the Second Realm when he set out; even after an epoch, in terms of lifespan, there was still a high probability he was alive.
"So he is the one who inherited Wan'er's legacy?" the Master of Yuqing Prefecture chatted with the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture. "What is his name?"
"Zhao Xing," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture said. "He will remain in the Purple Moon Prefecture."
"I won't fight you for him," the Master of Yuqing Prefecture said. "He is an Agronomist, so naturally he stays with you. But the Three Gods Life Palace divine ability originates from the Reincarnation Temple. Wan'er had received permission, but it is still a bit troublesome for him to learn it now."
"I leave this matter to you to communicate," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture said. "If it really doesn't work, we will send him to complete the trial then."
"I'm afraid we'll have to wait," the Master of Yuqing Prefecture said. "The Reincarnation Temple has stopped external recruitment and will not be recruiting people in the Ancient Kingdom Alliance for a short time."
"When did this happen?" the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture frowned. "Why?"
"I heard another Derivative God Tablet was lost, and it was lost in the Xuanling Star Domain, which has made the Reincarnation Temple very angry."
"How come I didn't know?" the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture was somewhat surprised.
"It's been lost for thousands of years and was kept hidden; I only recently got some rumors," the Master of Yuqing Prefecture said. "Without the normal channels, his learning of this divine ability is against the rules and will be reclaimed."
"There is always room for accommodation," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture said. "Ignore them for now. It's not easy to officially push this rule; so many people learned it before, are they going to reclaim it all?"
The Master of Yuqing Prefecture nodded and said nothing more.
"He brought back news of Wan'er, which counts as a favor, so I should prepare a reward," the Master of Yuqing Prefecture added.
"I have arrangements," the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture waved his hand. "I have prepared your share as well; I will have Su Qin give it to him."
At this point, the Master of Yuqing Prefecture said nothing more.
Where Zhao Xing would stay and how he would be arranged had already been decided by Purple Moon, so she would not do anything extra.
Half a year later, Qing Yuzi's funeral ended, and many powerhouses left one after another, including the three Dao Domain Realm experts: Tianqi, Purple Moon, and Yuqing.
But the Master of Purple Moon Prefecture hadn't ignored Zhao Xing. On the day he left, Zhaoyuan, the manager of the Qingyu world-star, sought out Zhao Xing, Yun Tiandao, and Liu Tianning.
Zhaoyuan looked at Liu Tianning: "You are a non-official member. In half a year, you will follow the 'Heaven Walker' flying boat on the Qingyu star to participate in the trial arranged by the Purple God Prefecture."
"The Heaven Walker Continent is where our Purple God Prefecture trains registered disciples to break through to the Origin Realm."
"If you can reach the First Realm within ten thousand years, you can become a full member."
"Extra resources must be obtained by you on the Heaven Walker Continent; I have nothing here to give you. Only the breakthrough method to reach the First Realm of the Origin."
"Yes," Liu Tianning bowed.
After Zhaoyuan finished his instructions, he looked at Yun Tiandao.
"Yun Tiandao, you have now become an official member of the Purple God Prefecture; I will teach you."
"Starting today, you will stay on the Qingyu world-star to cultivate."
"The resources for you to reach the Origin Realm—breakthrough secrets, spells, elixirs, and spirit liquid—are all provided for free by the Purple God Prefecture; you do not need to go out and venture."
"Yes."
Finally, Zhaoyuan looked at Zhao Xing.
"Zhao Xing, I will also teach you on behalf of the Master."
"You will receive the same treatment as Yun Tiandao. As the successor of Junior Brother Qing Yuzi, you will additionally possess 500 million Yuanhai coins as a reward for bringing back the remains of the junior brothers and sisters."
This could be said to be a generous reward!
However, compared to Qing Yuzi's legacy, it was just a drop in the bucket.
"Yes, thank you, Uncle Zhaoyuan," Zhao Xing bowed.
"I will help you arrange the Great Zhou on a low-grade world-star with a spiritual energy index of 20, right within this star sector," Zhaoyuan said.
"But they do not count as a faction belonging to the Purple God Prefecture, unless they reach the requirements of the Purple God Prefecture one day in the future."
"Your and Yun Tiandao's personal cultivation resources are earmarked for specific use and must not be used by anyone else."
"Of course, these 500 million Yuanhai coins are yours to dispose of as you wish; if you want to help them or help others, that is up to you."
"The Great Zhou can only reside in this star sector for ten thousand years."
"The Purple God Prefecture will not collect taxes for ten thousand years, but they must pay the taxes of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom."
"All people of the Great Zhou cannot be considered 'citizens' of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom; they are only permitted residents. Within ten thousand years, if they do not meet the requirements, they are not allowed to drift to other planets with higher spiritual energy indices."
Zhaoyuan said: "They cannot even come to the Qingyu world-star casually."
"However, both of you have 100 subsidiary quotas. You can go back and read the 'Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom Citizenship Law' for the details."
"Remember, these prohibitions are very strict!"
"Once a violation is discovered, the punishment is very severe. You must remember this clearly."
"Yes," Zhao Xing and Yun Tiandao both promised repeatedly that they would be careful.
Because the spiritual energy system where the Qingyu world-star is located has a spiritual energy index exceeding 100!
Anyone who enters can cultivate rapidly, and the delicate balance of spiritual energy cannot be easily broken, so the population must be strictly controlled.
If the Great Zhou absorbed spiritual energy wantonly, their population could expand a hundredfold within a mere thousand years!
Just living here would waste quite a bit of the star system's spiritual energy resources.
Therefore, they cannot move around casually. Of course, paying money is another matter.
If the Great Zhou can earn money, they can still be converted into citizens.
"The migration of the Great Zhou population will take place in half a year. During this period, I will give you several options," Zhaoyuan looked at Zhao Xing: "Some of them are gambling treaties with an adventurous nature, but I don't suggest you choose them."
"Thank you, Uncle."
"If you have any questions, come and ask me," Zhaoyuan said. "It doesn't matter if you don't understand; you must be diligent in learning and asking questions."
"If you violate the rules, the punishment is very severe."
"Yes."
Qingyu world-star, inside the Green Lotus world-boat.
At this time, the Great Zhou had already undergone three migrations.
The first was from the Profound Yellow world-boat to the Star of Hope.
The second was from the Star of Hope to the Mu Luo world-boat.
The third was from the Mu Luo world-boat to the current Green Lotus world-boat.
There was no help for it; a low-grade dynasty and its subjects like the Great Zhou could not be migrated to live on the Qingyu world-star.
After all, this is a star system with a high spiritual energy index, and the Qingyu star does not allow so many subjects of the Great Zhou to come and live here; they are only allowed to survive inside the world-boat.
"What? My Great Zhou can only live here for ten thousand years, cannot move around at will within ten thousand years, and must pay the Ancient Kingdom's spiritual energy tax... How is this any different from being kept in captivity?!"
Ji Che looked at these agreements and couldn't help but look up at the sky.
"Calculating taxes by head, just for the Great Zhou to live in this star system, we have to pay 10 million Yuanhai coins every hundred years?"
"My god, and this is with the Purple God Prefecture waiving taxes, only collecting the Ancient Kingdom's spiritual energy tax and land tax."
"And we can't go out to venture at will; we have to pay money to go out..."
Ji Che felt like he was going crazy!
"Even if we sell all the family assets the Great Zhou brought, we can't afford to live here!" The others also wailed.
Zhao Xing was also somewhat helpless: "That is why the Great Zhou must control its population, while simultaneously saving expenses and earning money frantically, in order to gain a foothold in a star system with a spiritual energy index exceeding 100."
"But aren't we not living on a world-star with a spiritual energy index of 100?" Ji Che asked. "The one arranged by the Purple God Prefecture only has a spiritual energy index of 20."
"But this world-star is still in the Purple Moon star sector, still within the Purple God Prefecture, and the Great Zhou will always receive such and such benefits," Zhao Xing said.
"The money is not enough," Ji Che muttered to himself.
"It is not enough," Zhao Xing also sighed.
He currently had 500 million. It looked like a lot, but in reality, it wasn't. Living in such a spiritual energy star system, the money to be spent was also a lot!
According to the purchasing power of the currency issued by the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, the cheapest low-grade world-star Dao weapon costs less than one million.
How much does an Ascension Realm worker make a year? About ten thousand!
Then theoretically speaking, wouldn't it take a few hundred years to save up one million?
Doesn't that mean an Ascension Realm cultivator could save up for a world-star Dao weapon in a few hundred years?
In reality, it's not so. Various taxes would crush people until they couldn't breathe, such as the 【Spiritual Energy Tax】 levied by the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom.
Different realms have different tax rates. Generally speaking, if an Ascension Realm cultivator doesn't spend money on cultivation, they just barely manage to survive; they can't save a single bit, and in most cases, they end up in debt instead.
Saving money? That's truly a dream!
It's fine if you don't want to live in a spiritual energy star system; you can just go live in a place with a low spiritual energy index, like the Da Ye Dynasty.
"Why are the wages for the Ascension Realm so low, and even the wages for the Origin Realm aren't high?" Tong Wenzhuo asked in confusion.
"Because mechanical puppets are more efficient," Zhao Xing said. "The Ancient Kingdom's mechanical craftsmanship has developed to this day, and most work is completely mechanized production."
"Basically, whatever an Ascension Realm cultivator can do, a mechanical puppet can do," Zhao Xing said. "And the cost is lower."
"Not true," Liu Tianning said: "Mechanical puppets cannot replace the position of an Agronomist. I have read a lot of materials these days, and they all said that mechanical puppets cannot cast Agronomist spells."
"Yes," Zhao Xing nodded: "But if the Great Zhou wants to make money through planting, first, we need good land; second, we need good seeds; and third, we need the spells of our own school."
"Is there a trap in this too?" Liu Tianning asked.
"Of course," Zhao Xing nodded: "We can't afford land with a high spiritual energy index, so don't even think about high-end products; there's no competitiveness at all, and the costs can't even be recovered."
"Second is the seeds. We have to buy a batch of seeds every year, and this is another expenditure cost..."
"Wait a minute," Mi Fu interrupted: "Grand Agronomist, I don't understand, why do we have to buy seeds? Can't we buy the first batch and then cultivate and propagate them ourselves?"
Zhao Xing shook his head helplessly: "Do you remember the trial Qing Yuzi set in the second stage?"
"I remember," Liu Tianning nodded: "Studying the life structure map of the Tian Gu beast; once unlocked, one could master it and pass this stage."
"Yes," Zhao Xing nodded: "Every seed sold by the Ancient Kingdom's Chamber of Commerce is inevitably locked with a life structure map. It can only be planted for one generation; its reproductive function has already been locked."
"I'll give you an example. The most valuable cash crop on the Qingyu world-star is the 'Qingyu Tree'. After you buy the seeds or seedlings and go to great lengths to cultivate them to maturity, it will only bear fruit once."
"After harvesting it once, it won't bear fruit again."
"Is it possible for us to break this blockade and then plant it secretly?" Ji Si asked cautiously.
Zhao Xing said indifferently: "You can, but it's illegal. Once you ship a large quantity, just wait for the big powers that own the technology to come and conquer you!"
"My god, is there no way for people to live..." Ji Si was suffocated.
