My monster derivative skills are the orthodox ones

Chapter 393 Poaching

Lingxiao Palace.

A video was playing in the main hall showing Zhang Tianshi, dressed in a bright red wedding gown, marrying Shu Kun...

During the video viewing, the Immortal Emperor and the other immortals remained completely silent.

Video playback ends.

The old woman of Lishan frowned deeply: "Is this child so wicked?"

The Old Man of the South Pole said, "Wang Lingguan has actually stood with him. What are they planning to do?"

The stars Tianyou, Yanshou, and others watched Zhang Tianshi being tortured in silence.

The Eternal Emperor said, "He is trying to establish his authority over me! My ministers, how should we deal with this unexpected turn of events?"

Now that things have come to this, it's pointless to pursue Zhang Tianshi's crimes; what he needs to consider is how to make amends.

Li Ye was clearly going against the Heavenly Court. If they allowed him to spread the video of torturing Zhang Tianshi everywhere, even if the Heavenly Court rebuilt all its branches, it would have no prestige among the people.

After a long while, no one answered.

It has to be said that Li Ye's methods of torturing people are disgusting.

If you're confident you can take him down, fine. But if you're subdued by him, not only will your lifelong reputation be ruined, but you'll also be stripped of the supernatural powers you've cultivated for tens of thousands of years.

Judging from the video, Wang Lingguan, Shukun, and Zhang Tianshi were all suppressed by Li Ye at the same time, proving that Da Luo was not immune to his skills, and no one present was willing to bear such consequences.

Li Ye is even more troublesome than Sun Wukong, who once wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace...

Monkeys rely solely on their physical strength; they don't possess many strange and disgusting derivative skills.

“Your Majesty, grant him amnesty!” the Antarctic Immortal said, forcing himself to speak. “Li Ye’s cultivation has already reached the Great Luo realm. The Heavenly Court is currently short of people, and his abilities are sufficient to qualify him for the position of Emperor. With the official title of Emperor conferred by the Heavenly Court, his actions will be legitimate.”

"Has the Immortal Elder considered what impact Li Ye's joining will have on the Heavenly Court?" Tianyou Xingjun said quietly. "Or is the Immortal Elder confident that he can prevent Li Ye from reforming, ceasing to use those skills, and abandoning his subordinates who help him level up his skills?"

The Old Man of the South Pole opened his mouth, but then remained silent.

“Li Ye knows better than any of us that he can’t coexist with the Heavenly Court. So, whether Zhang Tianshi tries to appease him or provoke him, this is the result,” said Tianyou Xingjun. “The amnesty will only give him more time to grow.”

“Lord Tianyou, since we cannot appease him, are we to wage war against him?” said Lord Yanshou. “Not to mention that the Heavenly Court has no one to rely on, even if it did, who could be his match? Wang Lingguan is one of his allies…”

“We can clip his wings,” suggested Tiande Xingjun. “His subordinates are scattered across various planets. If we send troops, he won’t have time to come to our aid.”

"And then what? If you anger him too much, will he completely turn against the Heavenly Court?" asked Tianyou Xingjun.

"If we seize those demons, the Heavenly Court's chances of winning will greatly increase." Tiande Xingjun glanced at Tianyou Xingjun and said, "Li Ye grows by seizing the skills of his subordinates. Those people painstakingly hone their derivative skills, but Li Ye easily takes them away. They must be resentful. The Heavenly Court will send troops to recruit them, giving them space and time to develop, but it will not take away their skills."

These people will surely be useful to the Heavenly Court.

This not only compensated for the Heavenly Court's shortage of personnel but also weakened Li Ye's strength. Moreover, they mastered the essence of using derivative skills; if one person couldn't defeat Li Ye, what about ten, or a hundred?

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. The territory controlled by the Heavenly Court is much larger than that controlled by Li Ye. We can completely imitate Li Ye and use his methods to cultivate the Heavenly Court's combat power.

With one side gaining strength and the other losing strength, taking down Li Ye will be a piece of cake in no time.

"The Heavenly Virtue Star Lord's plan is truly ingenious," Old Mother Lishan couldn't help but praise.

"What about the Heavenly Court's reputation?" Tianyou Xingjun retorted. "Are they just going to ignore it?"

"Lord Tianyou, the Heavenly Court has been gone for ten thousand years, and most people no longer know of its existence," said Lord Tiande. He paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, the demons have changed their appearance and returned to the world; there may very well be a sage's scheme behind this..."

This statement came out.

Everyone was silent.

The Longevity Emperor looked around at everyone and said, "Let's proceed according to the Heavenly Virtue Star Lord's plan! You all don't need to wait in the Heavenly Court anymore. Go find some demons and seek to increase your new supernatural powers!"

The Heavenly Virtue Star Lord is right. With the return of these demons to the world, a new batch of supernatural powers will likely emerge. If Li Ye's methods spread, the supernatural powers we possess will probably be insufficient to cope.

Everyone felt a chill and agreed in unison. In fact, after seeing the video of Zhang Tianshi's defeat, they were already somewhat at a loss.

The Eternal Emperor did offer them a way out. Even if they couldn't learn Li Ye's supernatural powers, developing some defensive techniques would at least prevent them from being helpless when facing Li Ye.

……

Li Ye, along with Han Peng's Ministry of Works soldiers, repaired various time-space nodes while traveling to different worlds to display their skills, expanding their territory larger and larger.

Originally, he harvested once a year, but later it took him more than three years to rotate the crop.

Although the harvest is only done once every three years, the skills gained are roughly the same as those gained from harvesting year after year.

However, a longer time frame would undoubtedly increase many risks.

after all.

Everyone has ambition. Once Li Ye obtains a powerful control device or finds a way to deal with fair trade, he may suffer a setback.

Even on Earth, if too many branch offices are established and the head office doesn't conduct enough inspections, many corrupt individuals will emerge and steal company profits for their own use.

The longer the audit period, the higher the probability of problems.

But there's nothing that can be done about it. Even Wang Lingguan, who has mastered the Dao of Space, can't teleport from one civilization to another.

"Master, is the Way of Space all like this?" After arriving at another planet to collect debts, Li Ye couldn't help but ask.

"More or less!" Wang Lingguan said. "A sage might be able to traverse the universe in an instant, but it consumes a lot of magical power, and almost no one would do that."

“But most derivative techniques consume very little demonic energy!” Li Ye said.

“I know,” Wang Lingguan said, “but initially, supernatural powers were indeed linked to magical power…”

"So, the demonic energy is evolving?" Li Ye was taken aback and asked, "Every surge of demonic energy prompts it to evolve, to a higher level?"

“Your explanation is quite novel.” Wang Lingguan glanced at Li Ye and laughed. “Perhaps it’s really possible. The sages returned the demonic energy to its original form in order to find a new direction for evolution.”

"A new direction?" Li Ye fell into deep thought. He looked at the kitchen knife and cutting board in his hand. The derivative skills he had created seemed to be truly different from others. Moreover, most immortals and gods could not defend against them, just like a new virus that suddenly appeared, rendering the original antibodies ineffective.

moment.

Li Ye raised his head and looked at Wang Lingguan seriously: "Master, I really suggest that you use my method to develop some new supernatural abilities. I feel that my guess is correct. Demons and their derivative skills are constantly evolving. If you don't keep up with the times, you will be abandoned by the times one day."

Wang Lingguan frowned: "So, what is the next era? The era of unorthodox domains?"

"Maybe so!" Li Ye chuckled. "Anyway, most immortals and gods can't defend against my domain..."

Talking.

He suddenly looked up at the civilization he was about to leave for and said, "Master, something has happened!"

"what happened?"

Wang Lingguan's Eye of Truth is at the same level as Li Ye's, but he doesn't have the Ultimate Focusing Aid, so his viewing distance isn't as far as Li Ye's.

"The Heavenly Court is trying to steal people from us." Li Ye chuckled. "Interesting. They can't beat me, so they're starting to poach my people. Master, please consider my suggestion!"

The Heavenly Court promised my employees that they would be allowed to continue developing according to my methods, but would not take away their derivative skills, and even promised them positions in the Heavenly Court…

"Really?" Wang Lingguan asked.

“The person has already been taken away by the Heavenly Court. The newcomer should also be proficient in the Dao of Space, and at a higher level than Master. Just now when I looked at her, she suddenly teleported everyone away,” Li Ye said.

"Who is it?" Wang Lingguan asked.

Li Ye conjured an image in the void.

“The Old Mother of Lishan!” Wang Lingguan recognized the person at a glance and exclaimed in surprise.

“So it was her, no wonder,” Li Ye said. The Old Mother of Lishan held an extremely high position among the female immortals, ranking second only to the Queen Mother of the West.

If she is the Old Mother of Lishan, it's normal for her to be more powerful than Wang Lingguan. In the Journey to the West, when the four saints tested Zen, she played the role of a mother, and her status was far higher than that of Bodhisattvas such as Guanyin...
