Zongwang: Unspeakable fear!

Chapter 1013 Qualification Acquired, the Zhu Family's Problems (4K)

Zhu Qing glanced at Gao Yang, lowered his head to cover his bloodshot eyes, and then shook his head and said, "It's alright. You can cultivate and live in the Zhu clan for a while. Someone will arrange everything for you later."

"Then thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Zhu Qing."

Gao Yang smiled and nodded. Since Zhu Qing hadn't said anything, he naturally wouldn't meddle.

When the other person is ready to speak, they will naturally speak.

Anyway, there are still six months left, which is just what he needs to do to digest what he has accumulated so far.

Soon, led by a member of the Zhu clan, Gao Yang got up and left.

Zhu Qing looked at the three crystals of life essence in front of him and said, "Fellow Daoist, I forgot the things."

Gao Yang didn't stop walking, and waved his hand, saying, "This is for you, fellow Daoist."

After saying that, Gao Yang and the clansman flew out of the valley.

Led by his clansmen, Gao Yang settled down in a cave dwelling in a valley outside Zhu Qing's secluded cultivation valley.

This shows that Zhu Qing holds a high position in the Zhu clan. The spiritual energy concentration in his location is much higher than in other places. Moreover, he has dedicated staff to serve him and can even bring an outsider like him into the clan and arrange a cave dwelling for him to live in for a long time.

Sitting cross-legged in his cave, Gao Yang dispelled the distracting thoughts in his mind and began his cultivation.

Since arriving in Jambudvipa, he has been constantly engaged in battle and has not had much free time. The combat experience he has accumulated during this period is enough for him to digest for quite some time.

As Gao Yang entered a meditative state, the cave fell silent once more.

Time flies in spiritual practice, and it wasn't until two months later that Gao Yang awoke from his meditation.

"After being imprisoned last time, the mind seems to have become accustomed to long periods of seclusion."

Gao Yang clenched his fist slightly and nodded.

After two months of training, he has digested and absorbed all the experiences he hadn't had time to process before, and adapted to everything he hadn't been able to adapt to before.

Now, if he wants to use the sword technique 'Man-made Disaster - Separation from the World', its power, energy consumption, and casting speed have all been enhanced.

During these two months, neither Zhu Qing nor any other member of the Zhu family came to disturb him.

That alone made him very satisfied.

Gao Yang took out a simple meal of cicadas and began to eat.

Zhu Qing had previously stated that there were still six months before the Erlang Manifestation True Lord's Daoist Temple would open for inheritance. Now, he has been in seclusion for about two months, which means there are only four months left.

Perhaps we could first approach Zhu Qing and inquire about the succession quota.

Once you've confirmed it, you'll feel more at ease waiting.

It would be a huge waste of time to be told at the last minute that there was a problem with the quota.

Moreover, the ancestral land of the Zhu clan is not so easy to stay in.

Gao Yang opened his palm, and his fighting spirit naturally appeared in it.

The battle aura, which was originally like liquid gold, had somehow become mixed with a trace of crimson. Although it was only a trace, it was exceptionally conspicuous and stubborn.

Gao Yang admitted that cultivating in the Zhu clan's territory had indeed increased his battle qi growth rate by more than three times, but the side effects were also extremely obvious. The crimson wisp in his battle qi not only made it difficult to control, but also constantly affected his thinking, making him irritable.

However, this level of influence is not enough to affect him, since both the Solar Furnace and the Will of Immortality have greatly enhanced his control over himself.

Gao Yang clenched his fist again, got up, and walked out of the cave.

A moment later, Gao Yang arrived at the valley where Zhu Qing lived.

He did not rush in, but stood outside the valley, and his fighting spirit naturally began to spread.

A few minutes later, Zhu Qing flew out from inside the valley and came to Gao Yang's side.

She landed in front of Gao Yang, her crimson eyes devoid of any emotion: "Fellow Daoist Gao Yang, you've emerged from seclusion?"

"We've made it out of quarantine."

Gao Yang nodded, then got straight to the point: "Fellow Daoist Zhu Qing, I wonder if your noble family can help with the matter of the inheritance quota?"

"No problem, the spot has been secured. My Zhu clan has never sent any members to study the Daoist temple of Erlang Shen, so we have never taken a spot before. This time it went very smoothly."

As Zhu Qing spoke, a sword-shaped token appeared in her hand, which she then handed over.

Gao Yang reached out and took the token. His senses enveloped it, and he immediately discovered that the token was vaguely pointing in a certain direction.

"With this token, one can enter the Daoist temple of Erlang Shenzhenjun and try to comprehend the Daoist principles he left behind," Zhu Qing added.

"Thank you."

Gao Yang nodded and put the token into his backpack.

Now there's no need to worry about quota issues. When the time comes, he can go directly to Erlang Shenzhenjun's dojo and try to obtain the qualification for further cultivation of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

As for not being able to obtain the qualification to cultivate the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, that will have to wait until he tries to obtain the inheritance before considering it.

If he had time, he also wanted to find the location of the Jie Sect. He also needed to upgrade the Zhuxian Formation Diagram on his body. Although it was still powerful against opponents of the same level, the Zhuxian Formation Diagram was his trump card and was originally intended for fighting opponents of higher levels.

If the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram is not upgraded, then his peak combat power will be reduced invisibly.

Gao Yang looked at Zhu Qing and asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhu Qing, do you know anything about that person from the Jie Sect?"

"That one?" Zhu Qing was taken aback, then realized that the one Gao Yang was referring to was Tongtian Jiaozhu of the Jie Sect.

In the primordial world, one must not directly address a sage by his name, otherwise it will be recorded by the omnipresent Great Dao, and thus directly perceived by the sage.

In particular, there are top-tier beings like Tongtian and Yuanshi, who have become myths and legends in the primordial world and whose fates are unknown.

Zhu Qing shook his head and asked, "I haven't heard anything about that person for a long time. Why do you want to find that person?"

"You should know that I possess the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram."

Gao Yang did not hide anything, but said, "If the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram wants to be upgraded, it must devour other Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagrams."

Zhu Qing nodded in understanding, and then said:
"It has been a long time since we heard of the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram in the primordial world. Instead of focusing on that person, you might as well browse the multiverse trading market more often."

It should be understood that just as those great beings illuminate all realms, these treasures also illuminate all realms along with them.

"Isn't that how you obtained your Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram? There will always be people who don't need it. Treasures are different from inheritances. Inheritances require traveling to the Primordial World, but a clone of this kind of treasure can appear anywhere. You can buy it then."

"Is that even possible?!" Gao Yang was somewhat surprised. He subconsciously believed that no one in the multiverse would willingly sell something that could be considered a priceless treasure.

"Of course, the multiverse has no shortage of all kinds of resources," Zhu Qing replied matter-of-factly.

"You haven't been a multiverse player for long enough. If you had more time, you would have formed the concept that the multiverse contains everything."

Of course, both wealth and power are indispensable to obtaining what one desires.

"Been taught a lesson."

Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Since that's the case, then we'll wait until the primordial journey is over before heading to the Multiverse Trading Center to look for the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram.

Having resolved his own problem, Gao Yang reciprocated by offering, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Zhu Qing seems to have some unspeakable difficulties. If there is anything I can do to help, please feel free to ask."

After Gao Yang finished speaking, he took out another Ice Blue Chloe Fruit and handed it to Zhu Qing, saying at the same time:

"This fruit seems to have some effect on you, fellow Daoist."

"Thank you, that's true."

Upon seeing the Ice Blue Chloe, Zhu Qing's eyes lit up. Without any pretense, she reached out and took it, then eagerly took a bite.

As the cool fruit entered her mouth, her tense expression relaxed a little.

"This spiritual fruit can indeed somewhat curb my current state, but that's all it can do. After all, this spiritual fruit is very rare, and there can't be too many of them."

Zhu Qing ate and talked at the same time.

Gao Yang's expression was somewhat strange, but before he could say anything, he heard Zhu Qing continue:
"Fellow Daoist Gaoyang, what do you think of me?"

"???"

Gao Yang looked up at Zhu Qing, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

We were having a nice chat just now, why did you suddenly come at me so directly?
However, since they asked that question, it's clear they're seeking praise to gain emotional value from it.

So Gao Yang said without blinking, "Fellow Daoist Zhu Qing is naturally beautiful, intelligent, and has outstanding talent and strong cultivation. She is naturally a first-class fairy."

Of course, from a male-female perspective, Zhu Qing's most attractive feature is her pair of perfectly beautiful legs.

However, it's not easy to say those words out loud.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing's lips twitched slightly, and then he said with a hint of helplessness, "Fellow Daoist Gao Yang, there's no need to be so perfunctory with me."

Gao Yang was speechless for a moment. He was telling the truth, but he was just being a bit too worldly-wise.

Zhu Qing didn't seem to care and continued speaking to herself:
“Fellow Daoist Gaoyang, our Zhu clan has lived in this ancestral land for a very, very long time, so long that even the ancestral graves have long since formed a mountain range.”

Everyone in the prehistoric world knows the power of the Flame God Clan, but it is also a common understanding among all the people of the prehistoric world that the Flame God Clan has a limited lifespan.

Living here allows for extremely rapid cultivation advancement, but everything comes at a price. The price here is the constant erosion from the omnipresent Flame Dao.

Over a long period of time, this leads to an increasingly impulsive and irritable personality, while also making magical power more active and difficult to control.

If this continues, the Flame God clan will perish as a result.

"Has your fellow Daoist and your clan considered moving to another place?" Gao Yang asked.

"This is our ancestral land, the place where our ancestor, the fire god Zhurong, attained enlightenment. How could we possibly abandon it?"

Zhu Qing shook his head and said, "If we give up this place, our Zhu clan will no longer be descendants of the Fire God."

"Then haven't you thought about solving the problems here?"

As soon as Gao Yang asked the question, he knew that he had wasted his breath. The Flame God Clan was so powerful that they had naturally thought about solving this problem. If they could solve it, they would have done so long ago. Why would they wait until now?

Zhu Qing smiled, but the smile was somewhat bitter: "I hadn't thought about it."

Gao Yang was surprised again. The Zhu clan's ancestral land issue was so serious, yet they had never thought of resolving it. Why was that?
"The problem with the ancestral land is not a bad thing; it's simply that we, the later generations of the clan, cannot fully appreciate the benefits bestowed upon us by the ancestral land."

Zhu Qing raised her hand, and fiery red magical power surged from her palm, which was as white as mutton fat jade. Within this magical power, Gao Yang saw strands of crimson red that were incompatible with her own magical power.

"These crimson threads are, strictly speaking, remnants of the Flame Dao, but we, the people of this clan, are unable to fully comprehend the Flame Dao."

After years of cultivation, our magical power and physical bodies have been tainted by the Path of Fire, resulting in our current state.

Looking at the magical power in his palm, Zhu Qing said, "The influence of the Flame Dao has made the magical power of our Zhu clan more aggressive and has also enhanced the overall strength of the Zhu clan."

However, the frequent use of abilities that do not belong to oneself and cannot be controlled will inevitably bring backlash.

The most direct manifestation of lifespan being eroded and burned by flames is why I am asking you for items to prolong life.

"I see."

Gao Yang nodded, indicating that he fully understood, but how did this relate to Zhu Qing's previous question?

As if guessing his thoughts, Zhu Qing continued, "Regarding the problem of the Flame Dao's erosion, our Zhu clan's usual solution is dual cultivation."

By engaging in dual cultivation with a cultivator of the same attribute, one can transfer the erosion caused by the Dao of Fire to the body of their cultivation partner, effectively slowing down the progression of this erosion.

"?!"

Gao Yang's eyes widened slightly, so he was being targeted?
“Fellow Daoist Gao Yang’s magical power is as vigorous as the blazing sun and as fiery as a sea of ​​fire, making him an excellent candidate for sharing the burden.” Zhu Qing looked directly into Gao Yang’s eyes without the slightest embarrassment. “My current state has reached a very dangerous point. If this continues, I’m afraid I will completely descend into madness before I even achieve sainthood.”

At that time, the primordial world will no longer have Zhu Qing, but will instead have a madman from the Flame God lineage.

Gao Yang was silent for a few seconds before slowly speaking: "Is there no other way to solve this? Fellow Daoist may not know, but I already have a family."

Although Zhu Qing is a rare beauty, Gao Yang is not a lecherous devil. He can accept Lisa's and Golis's devotion, and even in the state of "fiery heart tempering", he directly slaughters people in the supreme pleasure sanctuary of the goddess of pleasure.

But all of this is predicated on him understanding their attributes and existence.

Lisa adored him, Golis was grateful to him, and the women in the Pleasure Sanctuary had no resistance to it whatsoever, and even used it as a source of strength.

But Zhu Qing is different; Zhu Qing only needs a tool to share the burden of the erosion within her body.

Admittedly, most men would not refuse the opportunity to cultivate with such a beauty, but Gao Yang was unwilling to accept it.
