Chapter 164: Wonderfully Infinite

While alive, who isn't the 'protagonist' of their own life?

When young, luck comes to you, and with your own efforts and the help of noble people when the time comes,

Everything goes smoothly.

You only feel that in the future you will inevitably rise to a higher level and achieve a great career.

But in reality, no one can always have their way.

If you stumble inadvertently, you may stumble step by step until it's beyond repair!

Zhang Gui sighed casually following Chu Tuantuan's words, then changed the subject:

"However, the past of the dead is no longer important; what's important is the future of the living.

When I was practicing the 'Rainwater' part,

I used the most superior Swaying Shadow Text Array and Spirit Returning Stele from your 'Dragon Gate Trading Bureau' to crack the Jade Talisman Book before I could practice.

Now there is only the Jade Talisman Book here.

You have to arrange a suitable time for me to enter the 'Dragon Gate Trading Bureau' to get started.

Ordinary places don't have such superior Swaying Shadow Text Arrays and Spirit Returning Steles."

For him, even if he lay flat now and slept soundly like a pig every day,

Just by relying on the infiltration of the many Main Divine Clusters in his body, he would inevitably live a long life in the future.

It's just a matter of the length of the process and the height of the achievement.

His space for trial and error and his bottom line compared to mortals are already two completely different concepts.

Therefore, he seemed to lack some empathy.

Chu Tuantuan couldn't help but be stunned upon hearing this.

"Lord Caiyang, these words are very cold-hearted.

The Great Leader Wang was, after all, my godfather, and he left you such a precious Primordial Spirit technique."

"First, the Great Leader Wang and I were just 'friends' of interest exchange.

If necessary, he probably wouldn't have blinked to sell me for 'money.'

Second, if it were still in the hands of the Great Leader Wang, even if I beat him to death and saved him, he wouldn't have given me the whole thing.

I might even have had to skin and dismantle myself to sell to him, and I still wouldn't have gotten this full volume.

So the favor is owed to you, in my opinion.

It has nothing to do with the Great Leader Wang."

Zhang Gui waved his hand and said:

"I am the type of person who treats others the way they treat me.

Everyone is fair; there's no talk of being warm-hearted or cold-hearted."

"That's true, it seems I was the biased one.

However, the best 'Swaying Shadow Text Array' and 'Spirit Returning Stele' in the 'Dragon Gate Trading Bureau'

Were dismantled and sold by the Second Leader Zheng, who was pressing down on me before.

You have no use for them."

"Then forget it.

Anyway, the key to the technique inheritance is the 'Jade Talisman Book,' and everything else is universal.

Without you, Butcher Chu, I won't be forced to eat hairy pork.

I'll just find it slowly."

Not being able to take advantage, Zhang Gui didn't care.

At this time, the sky was already turning white.

Strands of golden sunlight slowly penetrated from the sea level.

Chu Tuantuan formed a seal with both hands, clashing the gold ring on the index finger of his left hand with the silver ring on the index finger of his right hand.

Forming a magic pattern.

"It's already dawn, I have to go.

Brother Gui, please keep an eye out for any big news from Xianrong Island in the future."

"That goes without saying.

Having received such a heavy deposit and reward from you, if I don't work hard for you for a few decades,

I wouldn't be able to face my own conscience, would I?"

Zhang Gui waved his hand half-truthfully...

When two people interact, it's best if their interests align and their temperaments match.

If interests align, everyone helps each other.

Because it's not a one-sided contribution, there won't be a large psychological gap.

If temperaments match, both are friends and have a foundation of trust.

They can entrust important matters at critical moments, so they won't haggle over every ounce in ordinary times.

For example, with Zhang Gui and Chu Tuantuan this time, even if the intelligence on Xianrong Island were ten or a hundred times more precious, it might not be comparable to the full volume.

But the reason Chu Tuantuan was able to rise to power was first because he knew Zhang Gui, stepped on his shoulders to show his performance, and finally started his momentum.

How should this favor of support from a noble person be calculated?

You must know that at the time, Zhang Gui didn't plot anything from Chu Tuantuan; he just had an inexplicable recognition of his conduct.

So actually, everyone is equal...

Both were smart people, and they looked at each other and smiled at the end.

Chu Tuantuan spat out the word 'Speed' from his mouth, and his figure immediately rippled and dissipated like water patterns.

"The national situation of Song Ming is mysterious and unpredictable, but the trend is clearly downward.

Let's 'obey the mandate of heaven and do our human part,' and take care of each other."

As the words fell, his entire figure exploded and instantly vanished without a trace, as if he had never existed in the room.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Ming Song is worthy of being one of the old-brand empires of the Eastern Continent.

Although the imperial court is poor, the royal Inner Court still has a deep foundation.

Even if the money in the Inner Treasury has been tossed to the bottom, the treasures stored away haven't decreased.

Brother Tuantuan, a mere local official of the Inner Court, was able to 'whoosh' right in front of me.

The dead Eunuch Wang so sincerely told me that he only had one part of 'Rainwater' in his hand.

And even said, 'The Pingyang Zhang family, which once produced the head of the outer court who adjusted yin and yang for the Emperor for decades,

Only then collected the full volume of such level of entry classics.'

That meant that being able to collect one part of 'Rainwater' was already a stroke of luck.

I actually believed him back then.

It turned out I was treated like a fool.

But this actually isn't because my brain isn't good enough, but to use the words of my previous life, 'the circle isn't good enough.'

Until now, I haven't truly seen what good things are hidden in the secret treasuries of those ancient aristocratic families, let alone the royal Inner Treasury of a great country and dynasty."

Looking at where Chu Tuantuan disappeared, Zhang Gui sighed and thought.

He casually held the Jade Talisman Book, which was secretly engraved with secret methods, in his hand.

First, Beginning of Spring:

The four seasons alternate, revolving in cycles.

Ancient sages divided it into three periods:

"First period, the east wind thaws the ice; second period, the hibernating insects begin to stir; third period, the fish swim up carrying ice."

I imagine that if I succeed in practicing it in the future, it will have a wonderful effect on my Divine Cong ability.

Next is 'Rainwater,' which Zhang Gui has already successfully practiced.

And by this, he evolved the ability of the Main Divine Cong 'Tai Sui Enters Spirit' in his brain to evolve black pulp from a plane to a three-dimensional one.

The benefits are self-evident.

Third is Awakening of Insects.

Now is the right time.

Yang energy rises, spring thunder suddenly moves, and all things are full of vitality.

According to the "Collection of Explanations of the Seventy-Two Periods of the Monthly Order," it says, "February begins, March is great, all things come out of Zhen!

Zhen is thunder, so it is called Awakening of Insects, which is the hibernating insects waking up and running out."

Its three periods are: "First period, peach blossoms begin to bloom; second period, the oriole sings; third period, the hawk transforms into a dove."...

Extending downward from this, until the last Great Cold of the twenty-four solar terms.

It is the process of gradual change in the cycle of heaven and earth climate and phenology.

It also reflects the changes of the top seven stars of the Northern Xuanwu in the twenty-eight constellations of the Eastern Continent: 'Tian Shu, Tian Xuan, Tian Ji, Tian Quan, Yu Heng, Kai Yang, Yao Guang.'

"The handle of the dipper points east, all under heaven is spring;

The handle of the dipper points south, all under heaven is summer;

The handle of the dipper points west, all under heaven is autumn;

The handle of the dipper points north, all under heaven is winter."

Wonderfully infinite!
