Chapter 893

Zhenyuanzi listened to the exchange between Dayu and Su Fan from the side. His expression was calm and indifferent, but he was also somewhat surprised in his heart; he was certainly not someone who was detached from worldly affairs.

Beneath Wuzhuang Temple, there were also quite a few mortals; although not many, they existed nonetheless.

Qingfeng and Mingyue often ran off to mortal cities, and sometimes they would even bring back interesting things.

Regarding the Human Race, Zhenyuanzi treated them all equally, but compared to the other Ten Thousand Races, the Human Race and the Spirit Race were more peace-loving, so relatively speaking, Zhenyuanzi felt closer to the Human Race.

This was also why, when a group of humans fled to the foot of Wuzhuang Temple years ago, he stepped in to protect them, and even slew a Heavenly God who had come to hunt the humans down.

At the time, he also had the intention of avenging his good friend Hongyun.

Now that the Human Race had become the hegemon and their strength was growing ever stronger, Zhenyuanzi was naturally aware of this.

Because of his helping hand back then, he naturally enjoyed some of the Human Race's Qi of Luck.

In many places, there were even those who worshipped him, the Great Immortal Zhenyuanzi; as the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, his influence was actually more widespread among the human world.

The Human Race was becoming stronger and stronger now, and their Qi of Luck was increasing, though of course, at his level, Qi of Luck actually had little effect.

In the War of Investiture, the fighting between the Three Teachings was actually between the original disciples; at the beginning, the Saints had never intended to participate.

But the result was that those second-generation disciples fought too excessively, ultimately leading the Saints to enter the fray themselves.

Among this, the Western Sect was pulling strings behind the scenes; the Saints discovered this afterward, but they could only let it be.

What else could they do?

The Three Pure Ones had all split up because of the War of Investiture, and Tongtian was the first to leave the Primordial World, so the others naturally could not do anything about the Western Sect.

Moreover, after the War of Investiture, the Western Sect's strength surged; the Taiqing Saint had originally wanted to use Duobao Daoren to split the Western Buddhism.

Yet he did not expect that the two Western Saints would also be so generous, resulting in him losing a portion himself; he failed to steal the chicken and instead lost the rice, as Duobao became the Buddhist Sect Lord, second only to the two Western Saints.

The War of Investiture was merely the second generation fighting for Qi of Luck, but unfortunately, it ended up benefiting the Western Sect.

At that time, no Great Supernatural Beings appeared; the only one was Lu Ya, who was born from Innate Fire Essence.

Therefore, strong figures like Zhenyuanzi did not actually care about the Human Race's Qi of Luck; at their level, unless one unified the Three Realms and became the Lord of the Three Realms, with a status comparable to a Saint.

Anything else had no effect at all; what they wanted was merely to break through and transcend.

Thus, Zhenyuanzi did not care about the changes in the Human Race's Qi of Luck, but from the exchange the two just had, he knew that the future Human Race would likely become even more powerful.

The more Qi of Luck the Human Race had, although a portion would be harvested by those Gods and Buddhas filling the sky, a portion would also allow the Human Race itself to become powerful.

The power of Fire Cloud Cave could not be hidden from Zhenyuanzi's eyes; having been there a few times, he naturally knew that there were quite a few Human Race experts in Fire Cloud Cave.

Now that the Honghuang Dixian Jie had no suppression from Saints, how could the Human Race continue to act as those being exploited?

Naturally, there was a heart of resistance; that act of the Great Qin defying the heavens, in Zhenyuanzi's view, was merely a probe by the Human Race's Fire Cloud Cave.

A probe to test the reaction of the Gods and Buddhas filling the sky.

After all, the Human Race was already very strong, yet they were suppressed by so many Gods and Buddhas; if it were him, he would not be willing either.

If it were the Monster Race or the Witch Race, they would have rebelled long ago.

Regarding this, Zhenyuanzi did not care at all.

After all, he did not need anything regarding Qi of Luck; the Human Race worshipped him entirely of their own volition, and he had never asked for it.

So he cared even less about whether the Human Race would turn against them in the future; after all, even if the Human Race took control of the Heavenly Court, it would have no impact on him.

Then why should he care?

Even if the Human Race really took control of the Heavenly Court, would they dare to scheme against him?

Not to mention his relationship with Fuxi, just based on his strength, who would dare to plot against him? Even the two Western Saints would not dare.

What he cared about was still his own Dao and the changes in the Earth Book.

When he arrived here, the Innate Divine Prohibition within the Earth Book, especially the final forty-ninth one, faintly began to appear.

He knew that this required him to personally refine it to potentially make it manifest as an illusion, and then slowly turn it from virtual to real.

This process might be long, but Zhenyuanzi could afford to wait, because he knew that the first step—the virtual appearance of the forty-ninth Innate Divine Prohibition—was the most critical.

This first step was the most difficult, and now it was possible.

So when Dayu and Su Fan finished talking, Zhenyuanzi immediately began to ask.

"What?"

Su Fan was somewhat surprised; he did not feel that the Star Essence Refining Array and the Heaven-Nurturing Earth Vein Technique were all that amazing.

On the contrary, he felt that the Blessed Land Inner Scene Method, deduced and created based on this, was even more powerful.

After all, could a secret method that could develop a Spiritual Land into a Blessed Land not be strong?

And it was one without any harmful karma.

Yet he did not know that in Zhenyuanzi's eyes, this technique was nothing; after all, the most important thing in opening up a Blessed Land was actually clearing the spirit caves and removing the impurities from the Spirit Veins and spirit caves.

This kind of technique might have some appeal to others, but to Zhenyuanzi, who specialized in the Earth Law, it was nothing.

He did not need any Water Law to clear spirit caves or comb through Earth Veins; he could do it directly, and could even use the Earth Book to mobilize Earth Veins to change the Earth Veins of a region very quickly.

He could possess dozens of such techniques for clearing spirit caves; perhaps many might have drawbacks, but most were excellent.

He had combed through thousands of Earth Veins back then; the Witch-Monster War had destroyed who knew how many mountains and Earth Veins.

For this, he had labored for thousands of years to finally comb through the Earth Veins of the East.

Su Fan thought that the Blessed Land Inner Scene Method he created was very clever; in reality, it was indeed good, and at his level, being able to create such a Blessed Land Inner Scene Method was truly shocking.

But such a technique, in reality, did not have much appeal to those Great Supernatural Beings.

Unless he could also create the Grotto-Heaven Method; that would be a Great Luo technique.

But clearly, at Su Fan's current level, that was impossible to achieve.

The Grotto-Heaven Method already involved the Dao of Space, far beyond what he could touch right now.

Don't look at the Swallowing Star World, where many Universe Level and World Lord Level beings began to comprehend Space Law; in reality, only those who reached the Universe Venerable level truly understood and could wield the origin of these laws.

What they comprehended and understood was merely the surface.

However, the cultivation path of the Swallowing Star World was indeed unusual, and could be considered an alternative World Dao.
