Chapter 119: Greedy Gaze

And that first piece of clothing in human history, under the endless Blessing's nourishment, became a treasure bearing Blessing Power. Zhou Yi thus received some Blessing, and together with the previous three times, the Blessing he has accumulated is already quite considerable.

"From today onward, I shall be called Zi Yi!"

As the boundless Blessing faded, Zi Yi leapt a step into the sky, and his resonant voice rang across the entire Human Race.

With the Descent of Blessing, the Human Race once again attracted the attention of many powerful beings in the Vast Wilderness World.

Although several hundred years have passed, those powerful beings have not forgotten the phenomenon the human group displayed back then.

Hundreds of years ago, the human group experienced three Blessing Descent events, each birthing a Great Luo Golden Immortal‑level strongman.

Centuries later, Blessing fell upon humanity again, once more giving rise to a new Great Luo Golden Immortal‑level powerhouse.

This puzzled many powerful beings of the Vast Wilderness World: why could an unremarkable human group repeatedly draw the Heavenly Dao's gifts?

In this world, obtaining Blessing is extremely difficult; countless powerful beings exhaust their lives yet cannot obtain even a drop of Blessing.

Why does it seem so easy for humans? In just a few hundred years, this is already the fourth time.

If the first few instances of not noticing the anomaly were understandable, this time many have begun to take the issue seriously. Although Zi Yi has reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, this degree of power is still unstable and requires time to solidify.

Like the three of Sui Huang, Zi Yi primarily cultivates the Zhetian Imperial Method, and practices the complete Feather Transformation Scripture.

Given time, breaking through to Quasi-Emperor Level is not difficult for Zi Yi; the real challenge lies in the Great Emperor Path.

Although Zhou Yi has attained Saint Body Great Completion, because he has not yet become the master of the Great Dao, stepping into the Great Emperor Realm, he lacks full confidence in how to break through to the Great Emperor Domain.

"Perhaps I can emulate Ye Tian Di's approach, suppressing ten thousand Dao with my own strength," Zhou Yi thought to himself.

In the world of Zhetian, Ye Tian Di, by his own might, suppressed ten thousand Dao, laying the foundation for the Heavenly Court's brilliance. In the Vast Wilderness World, Zhou Yi believes he can do the same, thereby establishing an unparalleled foundation for the Human Race.

This matter requires meticulous planning to ensure no error.

Zhou Yi always keeps in mind that, in today's Vast Wilderness World, those perched at the summit are the most worthy of vigilance.

In the days that followed, the human group fell into silence again, many clan members devoted themselves to cultivating the Zhetian Imperial Method. Zhou Yi himself devoted himself to cultivating Nine Secrets, continuously enhancing his abilities, and thus spent five years in tranquil pursuit.

One day, Sui Huang arrived with a solemn expression, interrupting Zhou Yi's secluded cultivation.

"Human Ancestor, recently several powerful beings have been lingering around our clan, purpose unknown!" Sui Huang reported.

The scenario Zhou Yi feared most eventually occurred: some powerful entities in the Vast Wilderness World have begun to focus on the human lineage.

All this naturally relates to the past several hundred years, during which humanity consecutively received four instances of Heavenly Bestowed Merit, and those four Heavenly Gifted Blessings gave rise to four Great Luo Golden Immortal‑level strongmen.

Facing such a situation, how could some great beings in the Vast Wilderness World remain unmoved?

Since they have arrived, if they gain nothing, how would these great beings easily give up?

"What is their strength?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Most of those appearing now are lone wanderers, the highest cultivation being only Golden Immortal level, not worth fearing," Sui Huang replied.

Indeed, in the Vast Wilderness World, true great beings know that humans were created by Nv Wa Sheng Ren, and that Tai Qing Sheng Ren also founded the Ren Sect.

Until the attitudes of these two saints are clarified, no one dares to act rashly.

Only those errant cultivators who cannot discern the situation, believing the newly arisen humans are still weak, dare to test their luck.

"It seems our humans are too low‑key, so everyone feels they can point fingers at us!" Zhou Yi said coldly. Just a few Golden Immortals daring to covet humans is simply reckless.

"Human Ancestor, these people are inconsequential; just expel them. I worry about the powerful opponents that may appear later," Sui Huang said.

"No, you're wrong. This matter must be handled seriously. Since these errant cultivators dared to spy on us, they should not be allowed to leave easily," Zhou Yi said firmly.

If these errant cultivators are left unchecked, more reckless ones may appear, and innocent humans could be harmed as a result.

As the leader of humanity, even if only one person is harmed, it is his dereliction, a result he cannot accept.

"Human Ancestor, are you planning..." Sui Huang asked hesitantly. Zhou Yi understood his concern; after all, humans were once very weak and had to struggle to survive in this cruel Vast Wilderness World.

This directly caused Sui Huang and other human leaders to be especially cautious when handling affairs, one could even say overly prudent.

Unless at a life‑or‑death juncture, Sui Huang and others usually prefer to handle issues low‑key, minimizing conflict so that humanity can quietly amass strength.

However, all this changed after Zhou Yi's appearance. As long as Zhou Yi remains, humanity will no longer be as weak as before, and that regrettable history will eventually be completely rewritten.

"Kill! Anyone who dares to covet our humans shall not be spared!" Zhou Yi said without hesitation, his words filled with chilling killing intent.

"Kill? Isn't this a bit too radical?" Sui Huang still seemed hesitant.

"This matter needs no further discussion. From today onward, anyone who harbors ill intent toward our humans shall be slain without question!" Zhou Yi declared resolutely.

At that moment, not far away, a group of wandering cultivators silently observed every move of the humans, completely unaware that they were about to face a catastrophic disaster.

These cultivators all came seeking the merit the humans had accumulated, intending to uncover the secret of how humans obtain merit.

But in their eyes, most humans appear extremely fragile and unremarkable, yet continuously gain merit, which left the cultivators deeply puzzled.

After a period of observation, some cultivators, having found no anomalies, harbored malicious thoughts.

In this strength‑centric Vast Wilderness World, clashes over treasure are commonplace.

These cultivators, having survived countless battles to this point, are naturally far from benevolent.

Although there are four Great Luo Golden Immortals among humans, deterring these cultivators from being overly reckless, they instead turned their sights to ordinary humans, intending to decipher the merit‑acquisition secret through studying common folk.

Just as these cultivators were about to act, four powerful auras suddenly erupted among the humans, the aura of Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Sensing this momentum, those cultivators not only did not retreat but instead showed greedy looks in their eyes.
