My blind date failed, so I had to ascend the throne and become emperor.

Chapter 184 An Unparalleled and Immense Gain

What Xiao Ding didn't know was that Zhou Ping was not only comprehending the secrets, but had also mastered the strange patterns on the pillar in just a few days. The so-called technique related to music was just a deliberate illusion created by that near-immortal level expert.

This "Heaven Stealing Technique" is extremely powerful. It can steal the secrets of heaven and is an auxiliary technique mainly based on divination. Once you start practicing it, you can use this technique to predict dangers. In addition, it can also steal spiritual veins.

For example, if Huangling Mountain only has third-tier spiritual veins, then if one masters this technique, one can steal other high-tier spiritual veins and transfer them to Huangling Mountain.

This is similar to how ancient powerful beings on Earth moved spiritual veins to ruins.

After Zhou Ping finished sorting out and absorbing the cultivation technique, he couldn't help but marvel at how powerful the expert who created it was. It was far superior to the "Inheritance Scripture" bestowed by the Phoenix Fairy.

Of course.

The two techniques have different uses.

Open your eyes.

Looking around at the cultivators at the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Primordial Spirit stages who were still studying the pillar patterns, he began to ponder.

Should I directly use my technique to break free from the beam of light's restraint, or continue to pretend I haven't grasped it?

how to choose.

He was at a loss for words.

If he were to be released from his restraints, he would undoubtedly make a great spectacle of himself, and those powerful cultivators at the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Primordial Spirit stages would certainly pay close attention to him.

However, if one pretends not to understand, one may miss some opportunities at the Lotus Pond.

After all, the other party must have had a purpose in setting up such a test.

He hesitated.

He decided to communicate with the little cauldron. After all, the little cauldron was a spirit of an ancient artifact, and its experience was far richer than his own.

When Zhou Ping expressed his doubts and hesitations.

Xiao Ding was completely dumbfounded.

"What did you say? You've already mastered the basics?"

"Yup!"

Zhou Ping nodded.

The little cauldron was completely convinced. It couldn't understand those strange patterns, and none of the people present could comprehend them. Yet, in just a few days, Zhou Ping had actually mastered the basics. It was simply outrageous!
It already thought highly of Zhou Ping's comprehension.

Only now do I realize that I underestimated this kid's comprehension.

Such comprehension is not just abnormal, it's inhuman. Even the peerless geniuses who ventured into the path of immortality in ancient times were far inferior.

"Senior Ding, what should we do?"

he asked.

Xiao Ding recovered from his shock and pondered for a moment before saying, "Directly use your technique to break free from the light pillar's restraints. Just as you considered, that near-immortal figure in this palace must have made arrangements. Whoever comprehends it the fastest will definitely receive special treatment. Now, regardless of whether their treatment is for ulterior motives or something else, at least we should get the benefits first."

"And if you're ahead, you'll be ahead every step of the way. As long as you stay ahead, you might eventually get the opportunity. As for the attention of other powerful figures, there's no need to worry about it at all. Since that near-immortal figure arranged the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Primordial Spirit together, how could he not have considered this point?"

Listen to this.

Zhou Ping made a decision immediately.

He directly used the "Stealing the Heavens Technique" inside the pillar of light. At the Golden Core level, one only needs to comprehend a fraction of it, but he mastered the basics, far exceeding the requirements.

Almost instantly.

The pillar of light enveloping Zhou Ping disappeared.

At the same time, the voice from before rang out, "Haha, little guy, I really didn't expect that you would have mastered the basics in just a few days. Very good. From now on, you can move freely in the main hall. As the first cultivator to comprehend and break free from the constraints, you will receive the reward you deserve."

The words fell.

A coin, entirely purple, suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Ping.

"This is a purple coin. With it, no one in this palace can harm you. Furthermore, you can directly pass any of the following levels by consuming this purple coin!"

The voice of the near-immortal powerhouse was made without any attempt to conceal it.

All the cultivators in the hall heard it.

Brush brush.

Instantly, the gazes of hundreds of cultivators, including those at the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Primordial Spirit stages, all focused on Zhou Ping. Among them were a mixture of shock, astonishment, surprise, envy, jealousy, and gloom.

The stunningly beautiful woman in black armor, at the Nascent Soul Realm, had an incredulous look in her almond-shaped eyes.

She never expected that this little golden core cultivator who had stolen her virginity would comprehend a cultivation technique so quickly!
Although the requirements for a Golden Core cultivator are very low, she hasn't even reached the entry level yet, let alone mastered the entire cultivation technique.

"Boy."

"Which pillar's pattern did you comprehend? Tell me, and whatever you want, I can give it to you!"

Suddenly, a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm whispered.

Because he was bound by the pillar of light, he was unable to use telepathy, and his magic power was also restricted, so he could only speak. As soon as he spoke, the other cultivators understood immediately.

Yes.

The strange patterns in the main hall are limited, and that near-immortal level figure didn't say anything about not allowing other cultivators to help.

They could have this Golden Core cultivator teach them, at least they could get started quickly.

Thinking of this.

Immediately, many people spoke up.

The old monsters at the Nascent Soul Realm even said, "Boy, as long as you tell me, you can become my personal disciple and walk sideways on Huangling Star!"

In order to gain an advantage.

These old monsters at the Nascent Soul Realm were all going all out.

Xiao Ding laughed heartily in his sea of ​​consciousness, "Zhou Ping, this is a great opportunity to extort money from us! Quickly ask for things: minerals, magic weapons, spirit stones, pills, talismans, puppets—those at the Nascent Soul stage will definitely be willing to give them up!"

Zhou Ping's eyes lit up, but he hesitated and said, "Senior Ding, wouldn't doing this break the rules?"

Xiao Ding rolled his eyes. "This is within the rules. If it weren't possible, do you think that near-immortal level expert wouldn't have reminded you? Of course, it could also be a trap. It all depends on whether you're willing to take the risk!"

Zhou Ping pondered for a moment.

They first went to the pillar of light next to Jiangxia.

now.

All the monks were staring at him.

These people had long since realized that Zhou Ping's relationship with that woman was different.

But as long as Zhou Ping dares to teach, they can all learn from him under the watchful eyes of everyone.

After all, there's nothing to hide here.

Zhou Ping was just about to explain the key to getting started with "The Art of Stealing Heaven" when he discovered this problem.

For a while.

He was in a dilemma.

If it is passed on to Jiangxia, the other cultivators will definitely be able to see it.

At this moment, he also understood why he couldn't transmit his voice in this hall. There was no way to conceal it, and because it was in the hall, even speaking in a low voice would be amplified so that everyone could hear it.

"You're too clever for your own good! You could have taught Jiang Xia in Earth's language. Those guys aren't from Earth!"

Xiao Ding reminded.

Zhou Ping slapped his thigh. Yes, how could he have forgotten that? You see, since he came to the Crimson Cloud Mountain Range, he has been communicating through the universal language of the Taiyan Sect, not Earth languages.

So he spoke directly.

As expected. The other cultivators were immediately dumbfounded.

There are many dialects on Huangling Star, but these old monsters in the Nascent Soul Realm have traveled all over the world and have rich experience. They know many languages ​​and can even read lips. But the language Zhou Ping is using now is the language of Earth, which has never been in contact with the cultivation civilization of the universe. It can be considered the language of an ancient cultivation civilization.

For a moment, they couldn't understand what Zhou Ping was saying even through lip reading.

And through Zhou Ping's instruction.

With the help of Senior Phoenix, Jiang Xia was able to break free of his restraints in just five days.

The voice of the near-immortal level expert rang out again, "Lucky little girl, although you took a shortcut, the fact that you know that little guy is also a skill. Luck is also a part of strength."

"As the second person to break free, you receive Blue Coins, which can exempt you from punishment in any level."

The voice fell.

The old monsters at the Nascent Soul Realm couldn't sit still any longer.

They all knew that there were definitely limited spots for this reward, and once the limit was reached, even if the remaining people managed to comprehend it, they would not receive the reward.

And this reward must be closely related to the challenges to come.

"Little fellow, tell me, what will it take for you to help this old man!"

"Pills, talismans, cultivation techniques, spiritual herbs, magic treasures... whatever you want, if I have it, I can give it to you!"

Many cultivators spoke up.

See this.

Zhou Ping smiled and said, "Seniors, please hear what this junior has to say."

The hall fell silent immediately.

"What I need most are all kinds of rare minerals, the more the better. In addition, there are spirit stones, the more the better. As for cultivation techniques and pills, those are also acceptable, but the first two are the most needed!"

"The first spot will naturally go to the highest bidder!"

Watching Zhou Ping calmly negotiate his terms.

The black-armored woman's red lips twitched involuntarily. This kid really had some nerve, daring to use such bidding conditions to make a group of old monsters compete!

He wasn't afraid of being held accountable by those old monsters after he got out.

However, considering that the other party dared to take away even his body, which was at the Nascent Soul Realm, and his virginity, he felt relieved.

This guy is fearless.

And this time.

Nearly twenty Nascent Soul Realm experts exchanged glances and then made their bids.

At last.

Zhou Ping first chose one of them, the old rogue. The other party offered a large quantity and variety of minerals, and most importantly, spirit stones. He actually gave him 1000 top-grade spirit stones, which made him ecstatic.

1000 top-grade spirit stones!!
It should be noted that one high-grade spirit stone is equivalent to 6 million national fortune points.

One top-grade spirit stone is equal to 100 high-grade spirit stones.

In other words.

One top-grade spirit stone can bring a whopping 600 million national fortune points!!
It suddenly generated 6000 billion in national fortune points.

Zhou Ping felt like he'd been struck by Lady Luck; he was truly set for life and would never have to worry about the nation's fate again!
The only way to teach this old rogue the Primordial Spirit Realm was through physical actions, which made it difficult to understand. However, for someone at the Primordial Spirit Realm, the key point Zhou Ping was referring to was easily grasped.

"I see."

"These musical notes are merely a cover-up; they actually have nothing to do with music at all. Or rather, the great paths may lead to the same destination, but that senior used the way of music to interpret the cultivation technique. How amazing!"

The old rogue, a Nascent Soul cultivator, couldn't help but sigh. He glanced at Zhou Ping and said, "Young man, I have high hopes for you. Are you interested in becoming my personal disciple?"

Zhou Ping smiled and said, "If I can get out of here alive, I will definitely consider it."

He couldn't use his divine sense or magic power, but he could barely use a trace of it, just enough to put the storage ring into the storage.

Others in the Nascent Soul Realm used other methods. Although their divine sense and magical power were suppressed, they all had some special methods that allowed them to use their storage at critical moments. However, that was all; they couldn't use them for actual combat.

"Alright, now it's the second spot!"

This time, he chose to bid 800 top-grade spirit stones.

that's it.

It lasted five times.

There was no way to teach the art of stealing the heavens anymore; no matter how he tried to teach it, the other party wouldn't understand.

The fifth one was a Nascent Soul Realm expert from Demon Lake. He frowned, "It seems to be the rule here that each set of techniques can only be taught to four people."

Zhou Ping nodded. Besides Jiang Xia, there were three others, and then there was this Nascent Soul Realm cultivator from Demon Lake. They had obtained more than three thousand top-grade spirit stones, ores, magic treasures, and a large amount of various materials, enough for the small cauldron to absorb and restore some of its strength.

"Don't worry, senior. Now that I've taken the item, I will definitely keep my word."

See him say that.

The Nascent Soul Realm cultivators from Demon Lake, the woman in black armor, and the other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators all showed surprise. They understood Zhou Ping's meaning; he clearly wanted to directly comprehend other cultivation techniques!
"You...you can do it?"

The Demon Lake Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhou Ping smiled and said, "This junior can give it a try. If it doesn't work, I will return what you gave me!"

"it is good!"

Zhou Ping then directly comprehended other strange patterns, which contained national fortune points, and these points were incredibly abundant. He wasn't worried about consuming them at all, and even though different cultivation techniques required different amounts of national fortune points, he lavishly consumed them directly.

However, this time he deliberately took ten days.

Even so, it still shocked the Nascent Soul Realm experts in the main hall.

Based on their observations, it would take at least two months to even begin to understand the basics, and if one were to reach the Nascent Soul stage, it would probably take more than half a year, and if one were to reach the Golden Core stage, it would definitely take more than a year.

Therefore, they had all made long-term plans for the trials inside the main hall.

In any case, as a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, one's lifespan is very long.

Only those at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages were anxious.

But what about the results.

Zhou Ping mastered the basics of a set of techniques in just ten days.

"evildoer!"

"monster!"

"Where did this kid come from?!"

"With such comprehension and talent, if he doesn't perish, he will surely become a peerless figure who dominates an era!"

All the cultivators could see Zhou Ping's extraordinary nature.

The stunning woman in black armor stared at Zhou Ping with a glint in her eyes. The frustration in her heart had lessened considerably. After all, anyone would be furious if their virginity was taken away by a Golden Core cultivator for no reason, but it would be much easier to accept if it was a peerless and dazzling genius.

Time passes little by little.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Ping has already taught all the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, including the stunning woman in black armor, and his gains have been immense, beyond even his own expectations.

"Haha, this time we've obtained nearly ten thousand top-grade spirit stones alone, and the national fortune points we've gained are approaching one trillion!!"

"From now on, we no longer need to worry about the consumption of national fortune points, and we can freely improve everything we deduce!"

He was excited.
