Chapter 397: The Resurrection Cost
Having laughed and cursed, and with his emotions briefly released, he still had things to do.
One cannot always be impotently furious, wasting emotions on meaningless things.
Sitting and waiting for death was never Zhao Xing's style.
Zhao Xing took a deep breath, then looked at Qing Yuzi, who was clutching the ancient sword beside him.
"Old Qing, can you say something?"
"I'm the only one playing this high-stakes game; it's terrifying."
"Stop playing dead, will you? You must be a big shot. Otherwise, why would the Dongyan Ancient Clan misjudge you?"
"There are so many people in the world who take the Daoist name Qing Yuzi; it's impossible that I impersonated your name to sign a causal contract with the Dongyan Ancient Clan without it involving you for no reason."
"We are grasshoppers on the same rope now; you can't just give me the Holy Grail—at least hint at what other tricks you have."
Qing Yuzi's corpse came looking for this ancient sword to unseal it. Assuming this was the Dongyan Ancient Clan's doing, then it shouldn't be Qing Yuzi coming to find it, but rather them doing the work themselves.
After all, it was he who concluded the causal contract with the Dongyan Elder Council, and it was he who used the Starfire channel to send the Qing Yu token over.
Could a simple impersonation really confuse them? There is no such thing! If that were true, the Fate Officials and Historians of the Dongyan Ancient Clan might as well go eat dung.
Therefore, Zhao Xing speculated that something must have interfered with the Dongyan Ancient Clan's deployment. Now, besides the Profound Spirit History Book: Time Page, the only special things left on Zhao Xing were Qing Yuzi's corpse and the Holy Relic.
He certainly had reason to suspect Qing Yuzi.
However, Qing Yuzi just quietly kept his eyes closed.
"Fine, if you won't speak, then I will."
"We might as well calculate the resurrection cost of the Dongyan Ancient Clan first."
Zhao Xing now needed an external force to intervene. How big should this force be? He couldn't indulge in fantasies or guess blindly.
It would be better to calculate what he needed to break the situation based on the Dongyan Ancient Clan's resurrection cost.
Zhao Xing began to organize his thoughts.
He could roughly estimate it.
Because he had experienced the version of the Scholar God's Descent and had even made a fortune in the first stage, the "God's Initial Selection," before running away.
Furthermore, the other four players also had interactions with Zhao Xing.
Three of them had made a fortune in the second stage and ran away.
The last person, who was not weak himself and was a hero among the players, only ended up with nothing because of his greed, attempting to prove his Dao and become a god in one fell swoop.
Both god-making and resurrection require costs, which can be used for reference.
"First, consider the regional cost, which is the cost of the 'Spiritual Energy Origin'."
"The resurrection of a God Realm entity cannot be separated from the Spiritual Energy Origin. The 'Spirit' and 'Spirit' of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom alone are simply not enough."
"At the very least, there must be 1 to 3 supplementary divine objects containing the Spiritual Energy Origin."
"The 'people' involved, that is, the 'spirit' of living beings—sacrificing small fries won't work; it must have quality."
"The Reincarnation Realm is the best resource because they are the realm closest to the God Realm."
Referring to the Scholar God's Descent version, the cost of god-making reached five thousand Reincarnation Realm cultivators.
But that was god-making by the Scholar organization; here, it is primarily resurrection through sacrifice, so this number needs to be higher. Regardless of quality, just speaking of the worst-case scenario, let's estimate thirty thousand Reincarnation Realm cultivators.
The Scholars' god-making was a collective empowerment, but this is resurrection.
If both "resurrection" and "empowerment" are paths to god-making, then the Scholars' efficiency is higher and resource waste is lower; Zhao Xing thinks a six-fold increase is reasonable.
"The number of people is about 30, 00; even if there is some error, it doesn't matter. Old Qing, do you agree?"
Qing Yuzi did not move.
Zhao Xing nodded, taking it as his agreement.
"How could a tiny Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom gather so many Reincarnation Realm cultivators? Even if the Dongyan Ancient Clan wanted to sacrifice themselves, I'm afraid they wouldn't have that many."
Zhao Xing continued: "The only opportunity to gather such a number of powerhouses is the Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly."
If the Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly were held in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, then there would be no need to find ways to gather people; they would come to the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom as a matter of course.
"The Wilderness Ancient Kingdom Alliance has one hundred thousand ancient kingdoms. The Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly concerns the living environment; gathering more than thirty thousand Reincarnation Realm cultivators is more than enough."
The core of the Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly concerns the survival of the Profound Spirit Star Domain. Sending low-level people is useless; they can't discuss anything. Of course, only the rulers of the ancient kingdoms or those in the Reincarnation Realm are qualified to sit and discuss the Dao.
"The Dongyan Ancient Clan intends to trap and kill all the Reincarnation Realm cultivators participating in the Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly in one go. Such an heaven-defying act..."
"There are only a few hundred years left until the assembly is held. This means that by now, big traps have probably been buried all over the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom."
"And to be able to trap and kill so many Reincarnation Realm cultivators, at least one incomparably powerful divine object, or multiple lesser divine objects, is needed."
"The Profound Spirit History Book: Time Page is a divine object, but the page I have belongs to 【Profound Spirit History Book: Ten Tables】. Although time backtracking has powerful auxiliary functions, it has no combat power."
"The Dongyan Ancient Clan must have the 【Profound Spirit History Book: Biographies】, or simply a page of 【Profound Spirit History Book: Annals】. It can summon the phantom of an ancient god to wipe out all the Reincarnation Realm cultivators."
"If the Dongyan Ancient Clan only had one page, this plan wouldn't work."
"After the killing, it's the sacrifice process. This again requires divine objects. The Reincarnation Altar is not qualified; it must be a complete 'New God Altar' or a broken 'Ancient God Altar'."
The division of the God Realm can be divided into Ancient Gods and New Gods.
New Gods are uniformly those who became gods post-natally, while Ancient Gods are the legendary naturally born gods.
Among the Five Emperor Coins of the Profound Spirit Star Domain, the Five Emperors belong to the "New Gods"—they became gods post-natally and have a complete path to godhood, while Ancient Gods are gods born naturally.
"God Altar, God Relics, God Offerings (the offerings include the spiritual energy and living beings of the entire Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom territory)."
"In addition, there must be a Fate Master's divine object to lock the heavenly secrets. Oh, a Priest's will also work; I remember a divine object called 【Spirit-Sacrificing Tablet】 that covers this function."
"History, Fate, Sacrifice—at least 9 types of divine objects combined."
The three divine objects of the Historian: Boundary-Cultivating Pen, Preaching Book, Grand Historian Crown.
The three divine objects of the Priest: Ancient God Altar (can be replaced by a New God Altar), God Relics (such as the remains of the Void Ancestor's true body), Offerings (35, 00 Reincarnation Realm cultivators + the spiritual energy and living beings of the entire Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom).
There are many divine objects for Fate Officials; Zhao Xing couldn't guess exactly which ones, but he estimated at least three were needed, because Fate Official spells also have three major systems: predicting the future, causal determination, and blocking heavenly secrets.
"Add another spiritual energy divine object; that's at least ten. There will only be more, not fewer."
"Not to mention whether it can succeed, these are roughly the 'material costs' of the Dongyan Ancient Clan's resurrection plan."
"What about human costs?" Zhao Xing's brow began to twitch. "If a God Realm entity is involved in this, then I shouldn't think about anything; I should hurry up and try to commit suicide to see if I can be resurrected and be a person again."
"However, this possibility is minimal."
Why is Zhao Xing so certain? Because in his previous life, he had reached the point of impacting the God Realm and had never seen a "God Realm" entity in the Profound Spirit Star Domain.
Is there a God Realm in the Profound Spirit Star Domain? The answer is yes. Among the super powers, only the Wilderness Ancient Kingdom Alliance does not have one.
The Primordial Hill, Origin Heavenly Palace, Red Star Empire, and Reincarnation Temple all have them.
Zhao Xing hasn't seen them, but since everyone says they exist, then they exist.
It's just that the God Realm is already beyond the material world and cannot be seen at all.
Just like the third-rank officials within the Great Zhou now can't see Zhao Xing, the legendary Grand Minister of Agriculture, but such a person indeed exists, and legends about him are everywhere.
"Based on my understanding of this world, first, an upper limit can be set: no other God Realm entity is involved in this." Zhao Xing counted on his fingers.
"The Dongyan Ancient Clan wants to resurrect a God Realm entity precisely because they don't have one. If they had one, it would be enough to build a super power and negotiate with the Reincarnation Temple. This is also the foundation for ensuring the Dongyan Ancient Clan survives after the resurrection."
Once the resurrection is successful, even if the Dongyan Ancient Clan sacrifices more than thirty thousand Reincarnation Realm cultivators, they will fear nothing. Because a God Realm entity has the capital to negotiate. Resurrecting a god is hard, and killing a god is also hard!
As long as the God Realm entity resurrected by the Dongyan Ancient Clan is willing to pay some price, then rather than killing a God Realm entity, it is better for the super powers to erase history and make everyone forget this matter.
That is how winners and losers are determined; who cares about the wronged souls of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom?
After organizing his thoughts, Zhao Xing returned to the calculation of human costs: "The Dongyan Ancient Clan needs at least ten people to master the 'divine objects', and these ten people must be senior Reincarnation Realm cultivators."
"Not to mention having reincarnated a hundred times, they must have experienced at least ten reincarnations."
"To be safe, and considering other tasks, this matter needs to be at least doubled—twenty to thirty senior Reincarnation Realm cultivators."
After calculating the costs, Zhao Xing's heart went cold.
Ten divine objects, twenty or thirty senior Reincarnation Realm cultivators... can he really escape from such a situation?
Just then, Qing Yuzi, who had been motionless, suddenly trembled violently.
The ancient reincarnation sword in his hand also hummed incessantly, and the light of the Profound Spirit History Book Time Page trembled along with it.
Qing Yuzi held the reincarnation dharma sword, wanting to walk out of the range of the Time Page.
This scene made Zhao Xing frown.
Was Old Qing scared too?
Where was he going?
"You..."
Zhao Xing was about to say something, but found that Qing Yuzi was pushing the ancient sword forward while turning his head back, and at the same time, he opened his eyes.
His eyes, originally filled with murky death energy, flashed with a trace of clarity at this moment.
Something seemed to flash past in those pupils.
Zhao Xing caught it.
It was clearly a sentence, written in the Great Zhou script of the Profound Yellow World: Find the other sacrificial holy relic and send me to the altar.
Zhao Xing shook his head and found that Qing Yuzi had closed his eyes again, as if everything just now was an illusion.
He looked at Qing Yuzi's corpse with suspicion and uncertainty.
He originally brought a dead teammate with him, who was not only useless but also a burden, but now this dead teammate has manifested?
"I calculated so much for you, you finally think I'm worth it..." Zhao Xing muttered to himself.
He wasn't bored enough to talk to a dead person and calculate a bunch of resurrection costs... In the final analysis, he wanted to test what was going on with Qing Yuzi.
Now that the calculation was done, Qing Yuzi finally gave a hint. Does this mean that Qing Yuzi has already regarded him as a "partner" who can cooperate, rather than a pawn?
"Your old man's guts are too big; you dare to sit at the table in such a situation, borrowing the wind to strengthen your own power..."
Yes, not for resurrection, but to strengthen his power!
Thinking carefully, if Qing Yuzi had awakened his reincarnation memories, he was actively plotting against the Dongyan Ancient Clan from the beginning, not for resurrection.
He intended to suck the blood of the Dongyan Ancient Clan and become stronger from yet another reincarnation!
"And you said you were a jinx; you are simply bold to the point of heaven... I really fell for your big trap, actually causing spiritual energy to recover early." Zhao Xing cursed in his heart.
He had already concluded that Old Qing had interfered in many things.
However, thinking about it carefully, he felt very impressed. There are not many people in the Reincarnation Realm who dare to do this.
Qing Yuzi is treating the Dongyan Ancient Clan like leeks, wanting to harvest them!
"You're awesome!" Zhao Xing gave a thumbs up.
"Since you gave me nine Holy Grails, I'll play this game with you." Zhao Xing looked at Qing Yuzi, a surge of heroism rising in his chest. "Isn't it just a game of 'Qing Yu Cards'?"
"You dare to take your own reincarnation true spirit as a bet and hand the choice to me; what do I not dare to do?"
"At least you are blocking in front now, and the Dongyan Ancient Clan is confusing you. My risk is relatively small; let's do this job, brother!"
"If you win, you go further."
"If I win, I just want my life back; you can just return the favor ten or eight times later."
The universe has never lacked bold practitioners!
Success makes a legend, going further; failure is fate!
Qing Yuzi risked exposure to give him a hint; what did he have to fear?
A fellow Daoist invites me with his life; I also do not fear life or death!
"At least now it's not a dead teammate, but a half-dead teammate." After dispelling the fear in his heart, Zhao Xing rested for a while and began to plan in his heart.
"First, make one thing clear: my goal and Old Qing's are the same yet different."
"He wants to steal the reincarnation true spirit and even the power of divine objects to go further; I am just in the Origin Realm, but I just want to live."
"In this game, not losing money is winning!"
"Now, I want to use the Time Page and the ancient reincarnation sword to find another holy relic and send Qing Yuzi into the Dongyan Ancient Clan's altar... This should be the Dongyan Ancient Clan's plot, and also the reason Qing Yuzi came from ten thousand miles away: to let the existing holy relic reunite or merge with the original holy relic."
God's offerings are naturally the more the better; hasn't the Dongyan Ancient Clan always wanted this ancient sword?
Then give it back to you!
I am kind-hearted and will send an extra Qing Yuzi as a gift package!
"Until the holy relic completes the fusion, both I and Qing Yuzi should be safe."
"Up to the step of sending it into the altar, it doesn't matter whether Qing Yuzi is in the Reincarnation Realm after resurrection."
"If he is, that's good; I gain a big favor from a Reincarnation Realm cultivator. No, I didn't count on him to save me anyway."
"At this point, what I need to consider is survival."
"After calculating the costs, now it's time to find external help." Zhao Xing pondered.
"I don't want to be a savior, protecting the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, nor do I want to destroy the Dongyan Ancient Clan's plan; I just want to live, so I don't need such exaggerated external help."
What kind of person can get him out?
A God Realm entity certainly can, but the problem is he can't find one and can't afford to hire one.
A Reincarnation Realm combatant can also do it; he can find one, and it's possible to hire one.
"I can only overdraw the future." Zhao Xing thought to himself. "I can find the Reincarnation Realm powerhouses of the Red Star Empire and the Primordial Hill that I knew in my previous life."
Names appeared in his mind; these were all public Reincarnation Realm powerhouses and also characters Zhao Xing was familiar with in his previous life.
"But these powerhouses are not as easy to fool as Yun Tiandao, and I don't have much capital to mobilize them."
It's impossible for those Reincarnation Realm cultivators to be like Old Yun back then, where the Xia Emperor and his Dao partner were locked up by the Dao Domain Realm of the Cangyue Demon Kingdom, and this matter could be used as a bargaining chip to lure them out.
Now Zhao Xing doesn't know them yet, and the realm gap is too large; rushing to lure big shots is very likely to be a dead end!
Back then, Yun Tiandao was in the Establishing Dao Realm, Ji Che was in the Establishing Dao Realm, and he was in the Rule Realm; even if he couldn't lure them out, his life safety was guaranteed!
But now it won't work; the strength gap is too large. If a Reincarnation Realm cultivator feels curious, wouldn't it be better to just catch him and torture him? Why listen to him?
Therefore, when Zhao Xing was analyzing, he used the Thousand Illusion Tree as an analogy. It was because he was afraid of jumping out of one fire pit only to jump into another.
Zhao Xing waved his hand and wrote down one profession after another: "Starry Sky Historian, Fate Master, Priest, Physician, Qi Sect, Sword Sect, Heavenly Time Minister of Agriculture, Self-Origin Minister of Agriculture, Earthly Advantage Minister of Agriculture, Mechanical Warrior, Dao Soldier Stream, Forging Stream, Scholar..."
Behind every profession name meant there was a Reincarnation Realm cultivator, and one that Zhao Xing knew well, the kind whose 【Favorability】 he had brushed very high.
While looking at these profession names, Zhao Xing thought of "reporting".
But in an instant, he extinguished this thought.
Reporting to the Reincarnation Temple, Origin Heavenly Palace, and other big powers definitely wouldn't work.
If it were just a group of Dao Domain Realm cultivators trying to resurrect a Reincarnation Realm cultivator, Mr. Zhao would still hold out hope for reporting.
If it were a group of Reincarnation Realm cultivators trying to resurrect a God Realm entity, then it would be impossible.
As soon as he started this move, the Dongyan Ancient Clan Elder Council would immediately know.
Not to mention anything else, as long as a Reincarnation Realm Historian waves his big pen and writes a line: 【Zhao Xing died suddenly】.
Before he could even contact the people of the Reincarnation Temple, he would be cold first.
"Senior Reincarnator"! Once this identity, which relied entirely on the Dongyan Ancient Clan's imagination, lost its deterrent power.
The Dongyan Ancient Clan pinching him, an Origin Realm cultivator, would be like playing.
Taking a ten-thousand-step retreat, even if he really contacted someone.
The Reincarnation Temple once lost the Derivation God Stele; how was it lost? It was an internal problem!
That's why there is the matter of inspection!
Would he be solved by others before he could find someone to solve the problem if he reported it?
The Red Star Empire wouldn't get involved with the Dongyan Ancient Clan, but they are far away and might not care.
The Primordial Hill and Origin Heavenly Palace are the same; their purpose is not to maintain the balance of the universe.
"So the time node for me to call for help must be just right; not too early, for fear of being sacrificed. Not too late, or I'll be cold."
"Must grasp it just right."
Zhao Xing thought for a while and grabbed the Time Page in his hand.
Facing the Reincarnation Realm, he couldn't just draw cakes; he had to use this thing as a bargaining chip.
Using Reincarnation Dao Soldiers as bargaining chips is actually possible, but the problem is he doesn't have any.
"No Fate Master; this profession can see the future. If I call for help anonymously, I'm afraid the Fate Master will be suspicious."
"No Priest either; after this matter passes, the Priest will probably be suppressed across the board. Calling for help also involves causality; in the next version, it will become a sewer. Why would I want a Priest..."
"Forgers among the Mechanical Masters can also be excluded; combat power is not high."
"Dao Soldier Stream? Formation Master? This is not bad; they can teleport, and running away is fast and good. Count them in!"
"Qi Sect? Bring one; how can you not want a top-tier ox-horse."
"Minister of Agriculture? Forget the Self-Origin faction; their personalities are a bit strange. The Heavenly Time faction is too cold. The Earthly Advantage faction is more honest..."
Zhao Xing began to delete the profession names one by one.
A dignified Profound Spirit History Book: Time Page, used for fishing—how can you only fish for one person?
You have to gather a Reincarnation team!
"The plan is initially established." Zhao Xing rubbed his temples: "The Dongyan Ancient Clan wants to use the Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly to feed a god; I'll prepare some extra hard dishes for you."
…………
In the 1483rd year of the Shinxin era, returning to the Hutou Star Continent, Zhao Xing stayed in the Wuling Marquis Mansion and did not go out.
In the entire Marquis Mansion, the only ones accompanying him were Ji Si and a mechanical cat.
"Grand Minister of Agriculture, are we going back to the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom?" Ji Si asked.
"Hmm." Zhao Xing nodded, "The Spirit Domain Dharma Assembly is about to open, and powerhouses are gathering. Let's go join the fun; maybe we'll be like Old Yun and take a big shot as a master." Although Zhao Xing's action conflicts with the Great Zhou's action, Ji Si won't ask why he does this.
He just said along with Zhao Xing's words: "Although there are many powerhouses, I'm afraid we won't be able to see them."
Although Zhao Xing has the identity of the Marquis of Wuling, he has only been a Marquis for a short time.
Except for Du Yun, Cen Qionghua, Le Yao... the noble circle of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom doesn't know this person at all.
Not to mention Ji Si, he is just a "citizen" now.
"I don't have the qualifications, but someone does." Zhao Xing said, "Have you heard of the Marquis of Yuetan?"
"I have." Ji Si nodded, "Although he is a Marquis, he has a deep foundation. I heard that their family is an elder-level family that holds 'founding shares'."
Marquis of Yuetan, Lu Ting, is also in the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm. It is said that his family still has a Reincarnation Realm ancestor alive.
When the Yuanhai Kingdom Lord established the Yuanhai Kingdom, he pulled a group of friends to fight for territory; the ancestor of the Marquis of Yuetan was one of them.
The Lu family now only has one Marquis of Yuetan, which is quite low-key, but many industries in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom are controlled by his family.
"I know the daughter of this generation's Marquis of Yuetan and once served as her guest minister." Zhao Xing said. "Going to the assembly to join the fun shouldn't be difficult."
【In one look/p>
Why not find Du Yun? Mainly because Du Yun is too eye-catching.
His identity in the Origin Heavenly Palace is not only famous in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, but also has a certain reputation elsewhere.
Zhao Xing doesn't want to get involved with the Purple God Mansion again, lest he be noticed by the law enforcement officers of the Reincarnation Temple.
"I previously received her favor, and this time it's just right to bring some gifts to visit. You go help me prepare."
"So that's it, I'll go do it right away." Ji Si realized.
How did he know that the "gift" Zhao Xing brought was so big.
Seeing Ji Si go to prepare, Zhao Xing continued to look at the map of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom alone.
Ji Si has 5 billion Red Star coins, which Yun Tiandao left for him. Since Ji Si is here, he naturally doesn't have to do the miscellaneous work himself.
"Yun Tiandao was accepted as a disciple under the Duke of Ruohai. Old Yun is doing well now. He is a military man and is much stronger than a Marquis like me who climbed up by digging graves."
"If there is a place to go, you can also look for him."
Can Yun Tiandao be saved? Zhao Xing doesn't know, but he tries to keep people by his side. If he is saved, then the people around him are saved.
"Duke Ruohai also comes out of seclusion when the assembly is held and accepts Yun Tiandao as an official disciple. If Old Yun is transferred to my side, it means there will be a time when Duke Ruohai's gaze is shifted to my side, which means adding another Reincarnation Realm combat power." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
Regardless of what this person will do, before death comes, people know how to save themselves!
Reincarnation Realm big shots are ambulances. As long as there are many ambulances beside you, you can get on any one.
As for whether it will attract the dissatisfaction of the big shots... this is certain. So many powerhouses are gathered around Zhao Xing; anyone will find the problem. But by the time they understand everything, there is no time to think about anything else.
Everyone is going to die, so who cares who called the ambulance? Let's run first.
"Can the King of Tianji be used?" Zhao Xing pondered. The King of Tianji is also very famous, and he has worked under him before. Can he think of a way to mobilize him?
"Forget it, I only know Lei Yunde under his command. In the heart of the King of Tianji, there is no such person as me at all. It's too late to manage the relationship now." Zhao Xing dismissed this thought for the time being.
Unless there is a good opportunity, he doesn't want to cause extra trouble.
After all, he is walking on a tightrope now; an extra gust of demon wind might kill him.
"Ji Si, I have some things for you to do. After you buy the gifts, prepare a few time letters for me..." Zhao Xing transmitted.
"Yes." Ji Si nodded.
After arranging Ji Si's side, Zhao Xing took out a portrait and lit it.
"Pfft~"
On the portrait, a man was embroidered, wearing ancient crown clothes with insect and beast totems, a jade emperor crown on his head, and a domineering expression, like an emperor.
"Something up?" The portrait in the flames seemed to come alive and spoke.
"Bai Yang, I want to borrow the information channel of Starfire to send something." Zhao Xing explained his intention.
"Send where?"
"Domestic, how much money is enough?"
Bai Yang didn't react for a while, and later realized that the domestic Zhao Xing mentioned referred to "Red Star".
"It depends on what you send, to whom, and the way of delivery." Bai Yang said. "If you are just bringing some specialties to the people of Great Zhou, don't mention money. I'll ask Chen Xuan to bring it along; he happens to be returning to the country recently."
"Fine." Zhao Xing nodded.
Contacting Starfire has no other meaning, just to strengthen some connections and let them become ambulances.
After surviving, he still has to go to the Red Star Empire, and only super big powers have the ability to intervene in the first place.
"Why are you transferring money to me? Didn't we agree it was free?" Bai Yang was puzzled that there were 30 million more Red Star coins in his account.
"After all, it's my private matter." Zhao Xing laughed. "It's normal for me to donate some funds."
"You..." Bai Yang smiled and finally accepted it.
There are still a few hundred years left. Zhao Xing is now consolidating his relationship with Starfire. After all, Jing Yan has left.
This line of Starfire cannot rely solely on the previous feelings to maintain. It is very necessary to let himself, this "informant", brush his presence on it from time to time.
In addition, this can also be considered saving Starfire itself. When something happens, the higher-ups of Starfire will definitely ask about the situation.
If he has this favorability, he can save a lot of twists and turns in the process of verifying the problem.
"Brother Du, I'm here to say goodbye." Zhao Xing came to Huangsha Mansion to see Du Yun.
It's the same reason as Starfire. Zhao Xing also wants to maintain his favorability with Du Yun, and even find a way to get involved with the Origin Heavenly Palace.
"Are you going to the Red Star Empire?" Du Yun asked.
"No." Zhao Xing shook his head: "I plan to return to the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom to join the fun of the assembly."
"Oh." Du Yun nodded.
"Besides that, there is one more thing to trouble Brother Du."
"Go ahead."
"Last time Brother Du introduced the Mechanical Master 'Zhan Ze' of the Origin Heavenly Palace, I wonder if he accepts work from outsiders when he usually refines weapons?"
"What are you refining?" Du Yun asked.
"Materials for refining the Giant Yang clone, and some other small needs." Zhao Xing said, "If Brother Du's senior brother is willing to send a clone over, the price for five hundred years is about 5 billion Red Star coins."
"If he is unwilling, then pretend I didn't say it."
"5 billion? Hahaha, you overestimated the current market." Du Yun laughed loudly: "If my senior brother moves his true body, it is naturally very expensive."
"But if it's just a weapon-refining clone moving, earning 5 billion Red Star coins in five hundred years, he can't find such a good thing at all!"
Members of the Origin Heavenly Palace also need to eat. Zhan Ze is in the Yin-Yang Dao Domain Realm, and his clone is at most in the Five Elements Dao Domain Realm. Earning 5 billion Red Star coins in five hundred years in the Five Elements Dao Domain Realm? This is a big order!
"I think it doesn't need so much at all; you can pay two or three billion, which is about the same." Du Yun said.
He took the initiative to help cut the price. After all, he couldn't treat Zhao Xing as a fool. A Yin-Yang level magic talisman is at most 1 billion. Wrapping a Five Elements level clone for five hundred years, how could it need 5 billion?
"Thank you, Brother Du." Zhao Xing bowed.
Another ambulance!
He couldn't let Du Yun stay by his side, but he could let the Origin Heavenly Palace have a clear line by his side.
In this kind of high-stakes game, it's the same whether the clone comes or the true body comes!
When Zhan Ze comes with a clone, he has to shout for rescue frantically if he doesn't want to die.
He calls for rescue, not only to save himself, but also to save Du Yun.
As for whether Zhan Ze will hate him? First of all, with Zhan Ze's realm, he is not qualified to know everything afterwards.
Delete all related history; how can he remember this?
Even if he knows, it's not his turn to hate. So many Reincarnation Realm cultivators have been mobilized by Zhao Xing; little Zhan Ze can't even rank!
"Then I'll take my leave."
Zhao Xing bowed.
By the 1486th year of the Shinxin era, Zhao Xing still had not returned to the territory of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom.
At this time, a small thing suddenly happened: Qing Yuzi's junior brother, Zhaoyuanzi, actually sent a notification that someone had come to the Qingyu Star Realm to find him.
Upon asking, he found out that it was Nalan De and Nalan Hao, the uncle and nephew he had met at the Xingxian Pass of the Daye Dynasty. They came to find someone with the token Zhao Xing had bestowed upon them.
"Interesting." Zhao Xing couldn't help but click his tongue when he saw this news.
"The causality of a thousand years ago has come to the door at this time."
It seems like a very small thing, just a promise from the past, but it is precisely the causality formed by small things that can converge into great causality!
"Seeing the big from the small, invisible power is preventing me from leaving the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom. I don't know what else will happen."
Zhao Xing didn't go back to see people at all, just gave a sum of money to send away Nalan De and his nephew, ending the causality.
And in 1488, immediately after, Le Yao and Cen Qionghua suddenly offended a Great Divine Power Realm cultivator. This news was passed to his ears through Yu Tianqing's mouth.
"Zhao Xing, Le Yao and Huazi have been detained."
"When did it happen? I heard they have been locked up for ten years, and I only know now."
"I see." Zhao Xing nodded. "Don't worry about this matter."
"Good."
Ending the communication, Zhao Xing couldn't help but have cold eyes. Another thing came to involve his energy; this happened too densely!
"If I didn't have the Thousand Illusion Tree now, and didn't know Du Yun and Lu Yuehan, and didn't have so much money, any one thing now could involve most of my energy to deal with in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom."
"However, I just need to spend some money now. I can't go into the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom yet."
Zhao Xing was very cold and didn't consider whether things would deteriorate further.
Even if Yun Tiandao sent a life-and-death crisis immediately, he didn't plan to save him.
Because he is a chess player now, not a chess piece, and must follow his own steps.
If he is alive, everything is possible, and there is a chance to save everything.
If he dies, everything is empty, and he can't save anything at all!
"Kill, kill, kill, no one can disturb my will!" In the underground space, blood-colored blades appeared in Zhao Xing's eyes, the Time Page floated above his head, and Qing Yuzi holding the ancient sword stood on the left.
Qing Yuzi's yin energy increased. Zhao Xing twisted his head sharply and whispered: "Old Qing, don't urge me! I have my own sense of proportion!"
Qing Yuzi: "..."
"Greed arising from the lack of Dharma is called the desire for good Dharma."
"Within the desire mind, there is the desire for good Dharma and the desire for evil Dharma."
"Greed for worldly Dharma is a kind of cause and condition for reincarnation, and also a cause and condition for falling. The reincarnation true spirit will be weakened because of this."
"The second type is the true Dharma that I preach and promote, which is the desire for good Dharma, which can avoid the calamity of reincarnation."
In the Jue God Star System of the Red Star Empire, inside a sun star. A majestic giant is naked, emitting golden light.
His name is Meng Wu, a Reincarnation Realm cultivator of the Red Star Empire and also the warden of the empire's heavy prison.
On his right hand, there is a simple black-bottomed star-pattern ring. This ring is the famous 【Erliang Slope】, known for being able to imprison even Reincarnation Realm cultivators!
At this time, Meng Wu's mind entered the ring, and he was in a private room, listening to a bald man speaking.
The bald man's name is Wu Tian, only in the Dao Domain Realm, but Meng Wu, a Reincarnation Realm cultivator, was listening to Wu Tian preach, which was very abnormal.
"Wu Tian, I see your ability to confuse the public is just so-so." Meng Wu laughed lightly: "I don't think what you said is right, and I have no intention of letting you out at all."
The bald man was handsome and smiled slightly: "Does Brother Meng still remember how it was when you saw me? Sneering, disdainful."
"Now you can sit down and chat with me for hundreds of years."
Meng Wu said lightly: "I'm just bored."
"Something from nothing, once there is a first time, there is a second time." Wu Tian smiled.
Meng Wu didn't refute, but turned to talk about another thing: "Can the demon in your body still be suppressed? If it can't be suppressed, say it early. I don't want you to die in my hands."
"Just a small matter."
"I have a guest, so let's chat here for now." Meng Wu got up, his mind returned to his body, and the true body on the sun star opened his eyes.
Outside the star appeared another Dao Domain Realm martial artist, who was Meng Wu's great-grandson Meng Ye.
"Great-grandfather, I encountered a strange thing recently." Meng Ye said: "Someone threw a letter at my mansion, saying there were words to pass to you, Great-grandfather."
Meng Wu listened quietly.
"I checked, but I couldn't find out who did it, only that it was suspected to be delivered by someone from the Shadow Temple."
"What did the letter say." Meng Wu asked casually.
"I don't understand." Meng Ye shook his head "But I was afraid of ruining Great-grandfather's important matters, so I came to deliver the letter."
"Bring it here."
"Yes."
Meng Wu took it and looked at it, then a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The letter was a series of patterns and codes, and it burned after being opened.
"Hmm? 'Bone Fire Script'?"
"Didn't the Fire Seed Small World perish twenty epochs ago?"
One of his lives was reincarnated in the Fire Seed Small World, and it was there that his golden body completed another transformation.
"Only I know about that place; how could it get involved with the Shadow Temple?" Meng Wu recalled, and at the same time, he was also filled with a trace of doubt.
However, he still subconsciously began to stroke the patterns above and began to move various symbols.
A moment later, the patterns became regular, and then a flame reflected in Meng Wu's eyes.
In the raging flames, there was a simple big sword, and the patterns on the sword condensed into the appearance of a Void Ancestor golden body.
"Hmm? Could this be..." Meng Wu frowned.
But before he could look carefully, the big sword disappeared, and then the flames formed a line of words:
【Old friend, if you want the Void Ancestor relics, please come to the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom to see me—Emperor Tianning】
"Old friend? Emperor Tianning?" Meng Wu was stunned, "Do I have a friend reincarnated in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom? Why don't I know."
Meng Wu fell into deep thought.
Primordial Hill, Hongshan Continent.
The Hongshan Continent only has a radius of five kilometers, but its earth vein rank is incomparably powerful, causing nothing to exist within 30 star sectors, because everything will be sucked away, and even light disappears.
On this smooth and flat continent, sat a white-haired old man wearing earth-yellow dharma clothes.
"Emperor Hongshan, Emperor Hongshan!"
The ground suddenly cracked into a square, and a line of small words appeared on it.
The font seemed difficult to remain, Emperor Hongshan flicked his finger lightly, the square ground stabilized, and the handwriting gradually became clear.
After reading the words left above, Emperor Hongshan frowned, "Who is summoning me in this way? I clearly haven't left my Earth-Communication Secret Method to a seventeenth person."
"Earth-Communication Secret Method" is a method of transmitting messages through earth veins. It is a spell of the Earthly Advantage faction Minister of Agriculture and is not a rare spell.
The universe is full of star continents and boundary stars. By moving seven boundary stars or seven star continents and adjusting through seven earth veins, ultra-long-distance communication can be carried out.
There are countless combinations of earth vein fluctuation frequencies. Emperor Hongshan's private Earth-Communication Secret Seal has never been given to a seventeenth person.
With Emperor Hongshan's ability to control earth veins, he can receive information from most of the Profound Spirit Star Domain and half of the ancient kingdoms.
If his private Earth-Communication Secret Seal were known, his mind would be disturbed by countless information every day! Usually, Emperor Hongshan also closes most information reception channels, leaving only a few more private ones.
Unexpectedly, he received a communication from a stranger today, and it used one of his very private ways.
"Who leaked it? It shouldn't be... those old guys wouldn't play such a joke on me..."
"The information was sent thirty-nine years ago, and the initial location was in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom? Hmm, it should have been sent from a certain ring continent."
Emperor Hongshan thought for a while and began to contact the other fourteen people who knew his private Earth-Communication Secret Seal to verify. The other two were in reincarnation.
Finally, the answer obtained from the fourteen people was that they did not contact him.
"Could this Emperor Tianning be one of my two friends? No, why use the pseudonym Emperor Tianning?"
"Could it be that he is afraid of being found by enemies?"
Thinking left and right, Emperor Hongshan couldn't figure out why.
"Forget it, the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom is holding an assembly. I have been in seclusion for so long, so I will go join the fun and see who this Emperor Tianning is."
