Chapter 2022

One year later, the first divine ability became a top-tier one.

Name: Thousand Hands, Thousand Eyes!

Rank: Heavenly Rank Top-Tier!

Function: A demon-path attribute divine ability; after cultivation, it condenses a demon-path dharma form, gathering the light of world destruction with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes to slay enemies!

He Pingsheng looked at it, and its function was the same as that divine ability in the Immortal Realm.

Only the cultivation method within it had changed.

Moreover, after strengthening, He Pingsheng could master it without too much cultivation.

After all, the entire divine ability was recreated by him.

After completing Thousand Hands, Thousand Eyes, He Pingsheng took out another divine ability: Severed Arm for Survival!

However, before modifying Severed Arm for Survival, He Pingsheng walked out of his cave dwelling again and found Bai Yi.

"Young Master... you've come out of seclusion?" Bai Yi's face was full of surprise and joy.

He Pingsheng shook his head and said: "No... it's still early!"

"By the way... this Young Master has high comprehension, I can help you modify your divine ability cultivation method!"

"Bai Yi, do you have any family-passed-down or hidden cultivation techniques or divine abilities? Take them out and give them to me—I'll help you strengthen them!"

Anyway, with the Ju Ju Bao Pen, why not use it?

Helping Bai Yi is helping myself!

"Ah?" Bai Yi exclaimed in shock: "Young Master... you can really do this?"

He Pingsheng smiled: "Hurry up, no nonsense!"

"Eh eh eh..." Bai Yi quickly took out his cultivation method and handed it to He Pingsheng, saying: "Young Master, I have two divine abilities—one is my main attack divine ability, named 【Nine Heavens Divine Wind】; I am wind-attribute, this is my primary attack skill!"

"The second is a flight-attribute divine ability, named 【Piercing Heaven Wings】!"

He Pingsheng nodded: "Alright, let me take a look!"

"This name 【Nine Heavens Divine Wind】 is quite good—is it your ancestral divine ability?"

"Hehe... no... Young Master, this is a divine ability I comprehended myself, awakened from my bloodline!"

"Hmm... I came up with the name myself!"

"Good!" He Pingsheng returned to the great formation.

Then, as an aside, he threw Bai Yi's two jade slips into the Ju Ju Bao Pen!

Afterwards, He Pingsheng cultivated 【Thousand Hands, Thousand Eyes】 while modifying 【Severed Arm for Survival】.

Because he had experience from the previous modification of Thousand Hands, Thousand Eyes, this time modifying Severed Arm for Survival was much faster.

It only took over five thousand years for Severed Arm for Survival to be successfully modified.

As for 【Thousand Hands, Thousand Eyes】, He Pingsheng had already cultivated it to completion long ago.

"Let's strengthen it..." He Pingsheng opened the Ju Ju Bao Pen!

As soon as he opened it, he was startled!

Only to see inside the Ju Ju Bao Pen, the two thousand furnaces of five-tier 【Dragon Tiger Myriad Aspects Pill】 had already been strengthened to completion!

Bai Yi's two divine ability jade slips had also been strengthened to completion.

Ten thousand furnaces of five-tier 【God Path Pill】 had also been strengthened to completion!

These are not the key!

The key is... the divine gold entity has been strengthened.

He Pingsheng had previously tossed some low-grade divine gold into the Ju Ju Bao Pen as an afterthought, just in case other items finished strengthening and the Ju Ju Bao Pen sat idle.

So when he opened it this time, he immediately saw that the divine gold had been strengthened.

Not only strengthened, but its quality turned out to be... top-grade?

"Damn..." He Pingsheng couldn't help but blurt out a curse: "I, your mother, wasted all that effort for nothing..."

Earlier, he had bought five-tier 【God Path Pills】 and five-tier 【Dragon Tiger Myriad Aspects Pills】 at the merchant guild—why?

Not for anything else but to make money.

By utilizing the nature of the Equal Zone, he strengthened items one level higher, then after leaving, resold them for profit, allowing the He family's wealth to rise another level.

But now, you're telling me I can strengthen low-grade divine gold into top-grade?

I, your mother, didn't waste my effort after all?

Because when he initially bought 【Dragon Tiger Myriad Aspects Pills】, the value of one furnace was ten thousand medium-grade divine gold, i. e., one top-grade divine gold!

Strengthening one furnace per year, once strengthened to peak-tier, it could be sold at a high price—this profit is real!

But there are only two thousand furnaces total.

What about 【God Path Pill】?

One furnace of 【God Path Pill】 is worth one thousand medium-grade divine gold, i. e., one-tenth of a top-grade divine gold!

Even if strengthened to peak-tier, its value increases tenfold—still not as cost-effective as directly strengthening divine gold.

After all, divine gold requires no capital, whereas purchasing 【God Path Pill】 wasted a large amount of my capital.

A loss, a loss...

A blood loss!

He Pingsheng muttered curses at himself for the loss, while continuing cultivation!

He cultivated 【Severed Arm for Survival】, and at the same time, also examined Bai Yi's 【Piercing Heaven Wings】!

This thing is a flight divine ability; He Pingsheng can also cultivate it.

So, without realizing it, another few hundred years passed.

He Pingsheng completed cultivation of 【Severed Arm for Survival】, and within his body appeared a cluster of black demon blood.

If someone were to launch a sneak attack later, this cluster of demon blood would erupt immediately to block the opponent's surprise strike.

Very practical!

The Sky-Piercing Wings have also been cultivated.

When this technique is deployed, it can unfurl a pair of wings, granting extreme speed.

After completing the cultivation of divine abilities, the next step is drawing talismans!

He Pingsheng cannot draw fourth-grade divine talismans!

But having defective talismans is sufficient.

He then spent a period drawing 【Binding Mountain Talismans】, producing over a hundred in one go.

When the Binding Mountain Talismans were nearly complete, he began drawing 【Pure Insight Talismans】.

Pure Insight Talismans belong to the category of talismans that enhance perception; if of supreme grade, a single one can last for a full yuan-year and can be stacked with 【Heavenly Heart Divine Pill】, greatly shortening the time needed to comprehend Dao arts.

Unfortunately, He Pingsheng still failed to draw them successfully.

Fortunately, defective talismans serve as a fallback.

After drawing for a period and then strengthening for another, He Pingsheng finally walked out of that temporary dojo!

……

"Thank you, Young Master…… Good heavens, it's actually a heavenly-grade supreme!"

"So powerful!"

"This this this…… Young Master, becoming your servant is the greatest fortune of Bai Yi's lifetime!"

"Wuu wuu wuu……"

Bai Yi, holding two heavenly-grade supreme divine abilities, burst into tears.

"Alright!" He Pingsheng patted Bai Yi's shoulder: "Stop crying, focus on cultivating your divine ability!"

He then pointed to the illusion array behind him: "Just cultivate in my dojo!"

Bai Yi startled, asked: "Young Master…… what about you?"

He Pingsheng said: "I'll wander around!"

"You don't need to follow me…… Once your divine ability is cultivated, directly exit this equal zone and meet up with Qing Yu, Wu Da Bao, and the others!"

"I'm not at ease about those two!"

"Just go there!"

As for this side, He Pingsheng basically no longer needs Bai Yi.

First, Bai Yi's combat power is very limited.

Everyone is at the God Lord realm; He Pingsheng can kill him with a single slap, so bringing Bai Yi is useless now.

Second, speed!

He Pingsheng is now at the God Lord realm and has also cultivated 【Sky-Piercing Wings】; if flying at full speed, his speed will not be inferior to Bai Yi's!

Even faster!

Thus, letting Bai Yi return to guard 【Heavenly Amber Dew】 is the best choice!

As for exploring the equal zone ahead, I can complete it alone!

"Still the same words: wait for me; if in the end you cannot wait for me, you three should form a team and leave together, going to the He family to wait for me!"
