Chapter 613: The Coachman

~21 min read 4,182 words

"It is already very good that you can return safely." The Boundless True God smiled: "The matter of requesting battle can be put aside for now. I wonder why Palace Master Lu Ya has come?"

The bald little yellow duck immediately shouted: "You recognized the wrong person, I am called Beizhi, just invited by him."

He was unwilling to have causality with the Boundless True God, even if it was well-intentioned. Besides, he came for Zhao Xing's sake, not for the Boundless True God, so naturally, he was unwilling to admit it.

The Boundless True God nodded in understanding. He looked at Zhao Xing: "I wonder what other distinguished guests there are. Having come through hardships, I cannot neglect them." Zhao Xing thought for a moment, then released Yan Ao, Qing Qing Yu Zi, and Lü together.

As for the Nian beast, he didn't release it for the time being, because it was sleeping right now. The Nian beast had a bad temper when waking up; disturbing it rashly would only make it lose its temper again. It was better to talk to the Boundless True God in detail later.

After Yan Ao appeared, he also reported a fake name like Lu Ya, and was unwilling to accept the Boundless True God's causality. Even when the Boundless True God said he would help heal his wounds, he refused altogether.

It was Lü who appeared, which made the Boundless True God quite interested, but he didn't ask much at the moment, just sent a portion of healing holy medicine, telling Zhao Xing to take good care of them.

Only when Qing Qing Yu Zi appeared did the Boundless True God's smile slowly disappear.

"Qing Qing Yu Zi greets the Boundless True God, I—"

Before Qing Qing Yu Zi could finish his sentence, a space-time gate split open on the left side of the Divine God Hall, followed by a stick carrying killing intent that sped over.

Old Qing was scared out of his wits, because this was that 'Killing Green Stick' that would track automatically.

"Stop!"

The Killing Green Stick stopped when it reached three inches from Qing Qing Yu Zi's nose, called to a stop by the Boundless True God.

Zhao Xing took the opportunity to say: "Divine Venerable, on this trip back, Qing Qing Yu Zi offered advice and put in effort."

The Boundless True God nodded slightly: "Qing Qing Yu Zi, this treasure will be given to you. The causality is cleared."

Qing Qing Yu Zi was stunned, carefully putting away the Killing Green Stick.

Now only Zhao Xing and the Boundless True God were left alone.

Zhao Xing first handed over the intelligence given by the black-robed man.

"This piece of intelligence is beyond my expectations. Although the Dark Palace cannot see the light, it has some skills."

The Boundless True God's impression of the Shadow Sanctuary was actually the same as the impression Xitian Divine King City had of the Dark Palace.

He didn't think much of it, but since it was sent by Zhao Xing, he also said a good word.

"Divine Venerable, there is one more thing, about me." Zhao Xing opened his mouth quite solemnly. He planned to confess.

He told everything about the Moon God Palace Master's planning and true intentions.

"No need to say more." The Boundless True God raised his hand to interrupt Zhao Xing's words.

"You are still alive, and not only alive, but you have returned. That is enough."

"Whatever the matter, let's talk after this battle ends."

He naturally saw that Zhao Xing was now completely different, his Earth God body having become a Mixed Origin Divine Body. How could this change escape his eyes in the Divine Machine Hall?

However, Zhao Xing knew that returning to Divine Machine City was dangerous, and he had indeed experienced danger just now.

But he still returned to rescue Divine Machine City without hesitation and was willing to request battle as a member of Divine Machine City.

For the Boundless True God, the rest was no longer important.

"Yes."

Zhao Xing felt relieved in his heart, but still felt a bit guilty, so he requested battle again:

"Now that the six Marshal True Gods of Xitian Divine King City are besieging, the subordinate is willing to guard the Ten Stars and contribute a thin strength to Divine Machine City."

The Boundless True God refused: "No hurry."

Actually no hurry?

Half of the Nine Lands had already been broken, and next were the 'Ten Stars.'

If the second line of defense was broken again, it would be straight to the Four Divine Cities.

Could it be that he had developed a rift with himself?

However, Zhao Xing knew he had misunderstood immediately.

"The Great Time Technique did leave flaws, and the Ten Directions War Order also blocked some of my friends from coming."

"But wanting to break my Divine Machine City is still far off."

The Boundless True God's tone was flat, but he had powerful confidence.

"I am a True God, I can see all causality clearly."

"This time it just so happens to let me know who is without Dao and righteousness, who will fall into the well, who holds the righteous path, and who is a fake righteous path."

"Xitian Divine King wants to see my trump card. Now this little stake is far from enough—rest assured, there will be a time for you to practice."

"I wonder when that will be?"

"The Life-Bound Divine Weapon is still missing the final step."

"I will notify you when the time comes."

"Yes."

Zhao Xing didn't ask any more questions. He knew that the Boundless True God was fighting on multiple battlefields with the six marshals, so he didn't disturb him anymore and exited the hall. Zhao Xing took his people back to his territory, 'Daoqing Land.' Daoqing Land was located between the Ten Stars and the Four Divine Cities, a small piece of land built separately. Although the Boundless True God thought Zhao Xing was dead, everything here remained the same. Including those beast god experimental bodies, the Three Physician God Hall, and the Moonlight Wall.

"He must have done it on purpose, on purpose!" Qing Qing Yu Zi said excitedly: "Knowing I'm afraid of that stick, he deliberately let it come out to scare me."

"Really vengeful, and even deliberately gave me this stick, intending to add trouble to me!"

"Daoist friend, can't you see the divinity of this stick?" Lü saw Qing Qing Yu Zi holding the stick and constantly complaining, and couldn't help but remind him.

"Yes, Old Qing, the Boundless True God can use it as a gift to clear causality, how can it be bad." Zhao Xing also said.

"It can track and kill you no matter which space-time you are in. Just for this point, it must be at the level of a top-grade Great Dao divine artifact."

"Hmm? Is that so?" Qing Qing Yu Zi looked at the Killing Green Stick suspiciously.

"I can't see it. Brother Lü, you have wide knowledge, you tell me."

"I don't have any knowledge." Lü said: "I have only come out four times in my life, and this is also the first time I've seen this True God."

"However, I did hear something. The artifact spirit of this stick is scolding you."

"What is it scolding me?"

"I won't say the very dirty parts. I'll learn a passage for you that can be heard."

"I'd like to hear the details."

"I, 'Kong Shenzi,' grew up in the Extreme Land of the Primordial Era, favored by the Extreme Light and the Great Dao."

"First, I grew up beside the Divine King, with great divine power and unparalleled intelligence."

"Second, I fell into the hands of a True God, with boundless time, which was quite a match."

"Third, I followed a tiny hairy god. Alas, this life is ruined."

Lü learned it with a singing style, which left Qing Qing Yu Zi stunned.

Did the artifact spirit of the Killing Green Bamboo really say that?

In an instant, Qing Qing Yu Zi's face turned red, holding this stick, not knowing whether to throw it or keep it.

His skin was thick, but today he was despised to his face by a stick, and he couldn't hold his face.

No wonder he couldn't see the divinity; the artifact spirit didn't submit to him, so how could he use the wonders of this object.

"Puff~" Zhao Xing couldn't help but laugh out loud, mainly because he was amused by Lü.

"What are you laughing at." Qing Qing Yu Zi glared at Zhao Xing through gritted teeth.

"I remembered something happy."

"Get lost! You unfilial disciple!"

Qing Qing Yu Zi exploded.

Arriving at the residence, Lü and Yan Ao went to the Medical Hall to heal, while Qing Qing Yu Zi chose a pavilion to retreat, swearing not to leave until he subdued the divine artifact.

Lu Ya ran to the Beast God Mausoleum, saying he wanted to make up for it.

Zhao Xing came to the Huailiu Courtyard to count the spoils of war.

Wu Yue Zai, as a True God Priest, had quite a few treasures on him.

Zhao Xing counted them, then compared them with the treasure list of the Moon Shadow Wall to estimate the price, which was about enough to fill a Divine King Tower.

This made up for the cash flow Zhao Xing lacked.

There were two things that Zhao Xing couldn't recognize, and they weren't on the list either.

The first was the sacrificial divine reading snatched away by Lu Ya.

The second was an eight-sided lantern, but the lantern wasn't lit now.

Zhao Xing didn't want to disturb the Boundless True God, so he could only find the Dark Palace to identify them.

But in Divine Machine City, he couldn't connect to the Shadow Sanctuary through mental spells.

So he reported to Kong Que, applied for it, and allowed the Dark Palace to descend into this Huailiu Courtyard of his.

Then he looked for Lü, but he didn't recognize them either.

He could only find the Nian beast to identify them.

"Cook, why would I say you have short knowledge, you don't even recognize the True Divine Artifact of a priest." The Nian beast was still in a irritable state after waking up, and its tone was also very unkind.

Zhao Xing asked while coaxing: "Lord Nian beast, what is special about these two True Divine Artifacts?"

The Nian beast kicked the sacrificial divine reading with its hoof: "This thing is the Proof-of-Path Divine Artifact of a True God Priest. It encompasses his Proof-of-Path Dharma and also records the process of proving the path."

"Through it, one can know where the Dao goes, when it starts and ends, and the size of the power."

Zhao Xing was surprised: "That is to say, it can create another True God Priest?"

"You think too much." The Nian beast shook its head: "The True God's Dao cannot be inherited. At most, it can only be used for reference."

"Why can't it be inherited?"

"Oh, you are really stupid." The Nian beast said impatiently: "You are a physician. Suppose there is another physician who cured a patient before you, then you come again, will you still get the reward?"

"You can at most see what prescription the previous physician gave the patient and use it for reference."

"What if I poison the patient and treat him again?"

"Taste taste taste~~~" The Nian beast suddenly laughed, "Cook, you are really a devil."

"How can there be someone like you?"

"Doesn't it work?" Zhao Xing asked sincerely.

"Of course not! Taste taste~~" The Nian beast hammered the ground with its hoof, laughing loudly: "With such crooked ways, the patient will chop you the first time he gets better. You still want a reward?"

Zhao Xing was thoughtful. No wonder the Divine General Jieluo wanted to learn the Proof-of-Path of Emperor Chixing but didn't learn it.

So the same area of space-time cannot be repeatedly proven.

If one wants to drill loopholes, that is a crooked way, which is a serious violation of the laws of the universe's operation. According to the Nian beast's statement, not only would there be no reward, but it would trigger a divine tribulation.

"Cook, I'm hungry." The Nian beast opened its mouth.

"Whoosh~" Zhao Xing flipped his hand and threw a pile of Tongyuan remains into the blood basin.

"Lord Nian beast, what is the function of this eight-sided lantern?"

"It is also a True Divine Artifact, but it no longer has the Proof-of-Path Dharma, but it still retains powerful effects." After the Nian beast was full, it moved the lantern with its hoof and threw some light into it.

"For a priest, this is a good thing. It can borrow the divine power of certain gods without cost."

"Certain gods refer to which ones? How can there be no cost?" Zhao Xing was puzzled.

"It's similar to gods like the Nine Nether Dao Lord, who are dead but their Dao has not vanished, leaving behind 'Dao Heritage' in space-time. Only Dao Lords have such abilities."

"Just like the Nine Nether Dao Court, I can disappear directly from your internal world and appear in a random Extinction Realm. This is the Dao of Nine Nether."

After moving it for a while, the Nian beast stopped: "I don't see whose Dao shadow is on this lantern. It should be 'Dao Heritage No Longer Exists'."

"Then isn't it a piece of junk?"

"Of course not. It can collect the great power left by the Dao Lord in a certain area and a certain space-time. It counts as a very powerful True Divine Artifact."

Seeing Zhao Xing tempted, the Nian beast warned: "Cook, don't use it indiscriminately. If you are not a priest, don't understand divine sacrifice, and don't prepare offerings, you will die if you collect it rashly."

"Understood, thank you Lord Nian beast." Zhao Xing threw all the remaining ingredients he had prepared into the Nian beast's mouth.

"Humph taste humph taste~" After the Nian beast finished eating, Zhao Xing used wind and thunder to smooth its fur.

Before long, the Nian beast lay down again and began to sleep.

After leaving the internal world, Zhao Xing found that Kong Que had already arrived.

"Your Highness, your request has been completed." Kong Que said respectfully: "However, the Divine Venerable said, it is best not to associate too much with the Dark Palace."

"I understand, thank you, Kong Que."

After sending Kong Que away, Zhao Xing connected to the Dark Palace with mental spells again.

This time it was indeed successful.

"Black Robe! Black Robe!"

In the empty hall, Zhao Xing's mental voice echoed.

"Respected guest, what are your orders?"

"I want to sell some things, and I also want to buy some things." Zhao Xing wanted to sell some of Wu Yue Zai's things to cash out.

At the same time, he also wanted to buy some things.

"Let's see what you want to sell first."

Zhao Xing materialized the things he wanted to sell. Because he had witnessed the divine objects in reality with his mind, the Black Robe quickly knew what the things he wanted to sell were.

"Enough to fill an eight-story Divine King Tower."

"Why only eight stories?"

"We also have to make a profit." The Black Robe explained.

"Fine, sold." Zhao Xing didn't care how much Wu Yue Zai's things were worth. Except for the sacrificial divine reading and the eight-sided lantern, he sold everything else.

"Wait a moment."

The mental Great Dao interfered with reality. A shadow appeared in the territory where Zhao Xing was in reality, not too much, not too little, just enough to shroud a ring.

Then with a whoosh, the ring disappeared.

"What do you want to buy?" The Black Robe asked.

"Can I buy Heaven-Time Divine Dharma? And Divine-level Straw Man Dharma?"

"Earth-Benefit School spells, if there are any particularly good ones, you can also recommend them to me." Zhao Xing said.

His Mixed Origin Divine Body was newly formed, and he had nowhere to use his divine power.

The demand for Earth-Benefit spells was actually not high, so unless they were particularly good, he wouldn't want them.

For the Self-School spells, he had inherited the Seven Great Secret Techniques of King Yu Heng, and had only practiced four kinds, so the demand was also not high.

Zhao Xing had always been thinking about the drawbacks of the Primordial Kangren, thinking about whether he could change his cultivation to cover up this spell and get rid of the drawbacks.

As for the Heaven-Time Dharma, he was in urgent need.

Among the Heaven-Time Dharma, there was only one 'Nine Marsh This Hou Hou Hou Bian Dharma' that could be used, but it was only 'could be used.'

Strictly speaking, it couldn't even beat Lu Ya, so it was already considered a bit behind the version.

As for the rest of the Heaven-Time Dharma, there was only one 'Nine Sources Divine Thunder,' and it was still a fragment.

"Divine-level Kangren Dharma, we don't have it here either, only some clues." The Black Robe said slowly.

"Heaven-Time Dharma is available, it's easier to get than cultivation methods."

"Earth-Benefit Dharma is the most available. Many spells created by scattered practitioners lost in the Primordial Hill are very strong."

Zhao Xing thought for a moment and said: "Let's look at the Heaven-Time Dharma first."

The Black Robe waved his hand, and spells were imaged and arranged.

Because cultivation methods and dharma were separate, if you had dharma without Heaven-Time Dharma, it would be useless, so just looking for Heaven-Time Divine Dharma was still quite a lot. The Black Robe listed more than three hundred kinds here, and they were all relatively profound.

Zhao Xing was now at the Divine General level, and what matched him was the Divine General level dharma. He simply couldn't look down on general soldier-level dharma.

Among the more than three hundred kinds of dharma, only four were Divine King Dharma.

One was the complete version of 'Nine Sources Divine Thunder,' from the Five Abyss Thunder Division.

But it was not created by one person, but nine thunder methods created by five Divine Kings, integrated into one spell book.

Two was 'Di Cang Hou Bian.'

Zhao Xing had seen Xu Huai cast this dharma on the Ship of the Universe.

But Xu Huai only learned a little bit.

Cang originated from Honggu Heaven.

Among the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the Thirty-Six Beasts, it ranked fourteenth.

Three was 'Four Seasons Boundary Gate.'

This secret technique originated from after the Void Ancestor and before the Rui Emperor, a special period of power struggle between priests and Si Nong.

Originally, 'Four Seasons Boundary Gate' had a bit of sacrificial Dao, summoning natural disasters from designated space-time to attack.

But later it gradually evolved, and learners directly comprehended the space-time Great Dao, eliminating this sacrificial link.

The Space-Time Valley Rain Dharma Robe was manufactured by some craftsman god based on this spell.

Four was 'Heavenly Tribulation.'

This dharma included 'Heavenly Wind Tribulation,' 'Heavenly Rain Tribulation,' 'Heavenly Thunder Tribulation,' and 'Chaos Tribulation.' It was rumored to have been created by the Judicial Heaven Dharma 'True God Rui Yan' during the Rui Emperor period.

It was also created by a True Divine King who proved the path of heaven and earth!

"Is 'Heavenly Tribulation' Dharma really that powerful?" Zhao Xing asked.

The description above was: Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Heavenly Tribulation Dharma reaches everywhere!

It was simply too arrogant!

"It's not possible now." The Black Robe shook his head: "Perhaps during the Rui Emperor's reign, it had such power, but now even if you travel to the Rui Emperor era, there is no such effect."

"Why?"

"Because the Rui Emperor does not exist in the Rui Emperor era."

The Rui Emperor does not exist in the Rui Emperor era, this was very mouth-watering, but Zhao Xing understood in seconds.

Because Abyss of Time said that these emperors were not in their own era, having gone to Chaos, which meant that traveling through space-time to the Rui Emperor era might not necessarily see the Emperor.

Space-time was played by powerful Divine Realm figures into a geographical concept.

It was like if someone went to the Primordial Era of the Wilderness, the Moon Luo Mausoleum, to intercept Zhao Xing of the Origin Realm, they couldn't do it. Because Zhao Xing practiced the Mingli Shadowless Dharma, he had walked his own line in the river of time and was no longer visible, unless Zhao Xing himself wanted to, and his true form descended to go there.

"I want to buy these four types of dharma, is the money enough?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Not enough." The Black Robe shook his head, "Recording Divine King secret techniques requires special materials for storage, has a learning limit, and plus it is Heaven-Time Dharma, so it is quite precious. You can buy at most two types."

"And it cannot include the Heavenly Tribulation Dharma, because the Heavenly Tribulation Dharma is the most expensive."

Zhao Xing was speechless. He killed Wu Yue Zai and looted the spoils of war, and he could only buy two types, not including the Heavenly Tribulation Dharma.

"Then how many Divine King-level Earth-Benefit Dharma and Self-School Dharma can I buy?"

"It depends on the situation, at least ten types."

Things are indeed rare and expensive.

"Damn Gu Xiao!"

Zhao Xing cursed.

Gu Xiao's behavior had forcibly raised the price of Heaven-Time Dharma.

Even if he cultivated Heaven-Time divine power, he still had to pay a bit more money.

In reality, was Heaven-Time Dharma more awesome than Earth-Benefit Dharma? Actually not, they were all Divine King Dharma, how much difference could there be? But it was just because of Gu Xiao, leading to Heaven-Time Dharma being sold at a sky-high price.

"Actually, you can do this." The Black Robe gave a suggestion: "You can pass the coachman's test first and become a shareholder."

"If you are a shareholder, these things only need to pay the cost price."

"For the Heavenly Tribulation Dharma, you can buy twenty copies."

Hiss~

Zhao Xing couldn't help but gasp.

So you guys want to make so much?

No wonder you have to wear a black robe!

"Is the coachman's test dangerous."

"I don't know, but it should be very exciting."

"Will it delay time?"

"The time flow of the mental space and the Divine Machine City is maintained at one hundred. One hundred years here is only one year outside."

"Fine, when does it start?" Zhao Xing asked.

"As long as you are ready, it can start at any time."

"I am ready."

The Black Robe flicked his sleeves, and Zhao Xing felt darkness before his eyes.

The next moment, he appeared in a bright place.

Ocean, beach, rows of plants like palm trees planted along the coast.

This was the first time Zhao Xing saw a scene other than the Dark Palace.

Another mental space, and it seemed even more hidden. Zhao Xing could hardly feel the existence of his true form.

There was a treehouse tavern among the palm trees, where some figures seemed to be, but Zhao Xing couldn't see clearly.

Outside the door were two ancient war chariots, without horses, tilted on the ground.

A headless person, only wearing a skirt, stood on one of the war chariots.

After Zhao Xing and the Black Robe appeared, the person's navel immediately opened and emitted a sound.

"Yo, you're here."

The Black Robe nodded: "Coachman, he is ready."

"Good good good, come over here." The coachman urged.

Zhao Xing walked over in a daze. He took the first step and found that the beach had a very real feeling. The second step, he felt that he possessed a mental entity and could also use divine power.

The third step, he came to the coachman and stood in front of that huge war chariot.

Zhao Xing walked over in a daze; he took the first step and discovered a very real texture on the beach. With the second step, he felt he possessed a spiritual entity and could also utilize his power.

On the third step, he arrived before the coachman, standing in front of that massive war chariot.

"Greetings, Senior Coachman."

The headless coachman jumped down from the chariot and patted it, saying:

"You are in the middle stage of the General Realm, and now you are in the God Machine City, so my test is this."

"You must find three enemies at the peak of the General Realm, have these three put on this war chariot, and drag them around the battlefield for fifteen days; then you will have passed the test."

"What?" Zhao Xing was stunned. What kind of bizarre test is this?

"How about it, isn't it fun?" the coachman laughed. "If you can complete it, you can become a shareholder of the Dark Palace."
