"Who wouldn't want a life where they can just stroll around and find treasures?" Pang Bo chuckled.
"The gains and losses are balanced. Now you can actively use your luck to do all sorts of things, but you also need to pay attention to your luck. If it drops to too low a level, the harm it brings should not be underestimated," Zhou Qing reminded him.
“I understand. Ye Fan told me about the contents of your book ‘True Explanation of Cultivation’ in the Zhou family. It seems to describe a state of struggle for destiny? I’ve forgotten the specifics, but it basically means fighting other geniuses more, suppressing their momentum, and seizing their opportunities. My destiny will increase, and I know how to prevent my destiny from decreasing in the future,” Pang Bo said with a smile.
Over the years, Ye Fan has repeatedly studied the "True Explanation of Cultivation" from the era of great power, each time...
After reading it for the first time, one will have a new understanding of the state of heaven and earth and the essence of cultivation. As a result, Pang Bo can often hear some profound and unfathomable principles from Ye Fan.
Seeing that Pang Bo was somewhat overly excited but still knew the importance of things, Zhou Qing nodded and said, "It's good that you understand. Although luck isn't everything, it's absolutely impossible to reach a high level of cultivation without it."
Afterwards, Pang Bo pondered how to use the system on his own, while Ye Fan shared his experience with him, and Zhou Qing thought about the plans he needed to make next.
The BeiDou system is currently at a critical juncture, but Zhou Qing is actually quite at ease about how to prepare for this chaotic era. He has been thinking about how to deal with it for a long time, and if he follows his plan, the stability of BeiDou can be maintained.
Now he is thinking about what needs to be done at this stage of sainthood. This stage is too important, and there are too many things he needs to do. Even with the ability to transform into the Three Pure Ones, he still feels overwhelmed.
"The Chaotic Ancient Chariot and the Heavenly Emperor Sword are both sealed items, and their specific rank is unknown. Only now that we have become saints has there finally been hope of breaking the seal. The other two Dao bodies are already using all their strength to try to break the seal. It is unknown how long it will take for these two secret artifacts to truly emerge in their full glory."
Zhou Qing felt somewhat helpless at this thought. His main body needed to focus on cultivation, so this kind of work, which was unrelated to cultivation but extremely time-consuming, could only be done by his Dao body.
But breaking the seals on the two ancient artifacts was only the most basic part of his plan. The subsequent plans were increasingly complex and troublesome, and even three Dao bodies wouldn't be enough.
Not long after, the three emerged from the void and appeared directly near the God Lord Island.
As soon as Ye Fan and Pang Bo stepped out of the void, they felt a golden energy rushing towards them, incredibly gentle, as if it were tempering their bodies and primordial spirits.
Ye Fan circulated his magic power and absorbed a portion of the golden energy, feeling as if he were soaking in an incredibly comfortable hot spring, so comfortable that he almost hummed out loud.
After a moment of adjustment, he exclaimed in surprise, "My physical strength has actually increased slightly, though not by much, but it is still an increase! Moreover, my primordial spirit seems to be purer, and some of the worldly energy that seeped into it has been purified."
With a curious gaze, he looked toward the source of the golden energy, where a tall golden divine tree stood, its golden holy power flowing like the creation of a three-thousand-year-old universe, displaying a magnificent spectacle.
"Is this the Fusang Divine Tree?" Ye Fan asked in shock.
He had previously heard the God Lord talk about some of the events in the Ziwei Star Region and knew that the God Lord had obtained an immortal elixir called the Fusang Divine Tree.
This divine tree is also very famous in their Earth's ancient books. Now that they have actually seen this immortal herb, they can't help but marvel at how extraordinary it is.
"Master, is this your Dao body?" Suddenly, a beautiful woman, like a golden elf, flew down from the small island below and came to Zhou Qing's side, asking in confusion.
This was naturally the Sun Saintess, who was cultivating in the Eight Trigrams Palace on the Divine Lord Island. Sensing Zhou Qing's aura, she quickly flew away.
Came out.
"Don't call me master. Although we have a subordinate relationship, you are not my servant. Call me Zhou Qing, or you can call me God like everyone else," Zhou Qing corrected the Sun Saintess.
"Okay." The Sun Maiden smiled.
This was the first time she had used the title "master" in all these years, because she hadn't truly followed him in Ziwei before. According to Zhou Qing's words, she only became his true follower after coming to Beidou.
So it wasn't until she arrived at Beidou that she began to address him that way, but Zhou Qing refused to be addressed that way, which only intensified her feelings of love for him.
Zhou Qing had always been clear about the Sun Saintess's intentions. Back when the Sun Saintess made that request at the Dao-Severing Banquet, everyone present in the entire Sun Ancient Sect knew her intentions.
The Sun Saintess's request wasn't unreasonable; she simply wanted to stay by his side. Naturally, he wasn't willing to refuse her, since he didn't want another person like Delis behind him.
"This is indeed my Dao body. I went to Zhongzhou and brought back two very promising geniuses," Zhou Qing said.
"Is it just the two of them?" The Sun Saintess shifted her gaze to Ye Fan and Pang Bo, her eyes suddenly gleaming with golden light, dazzling and beautiful.
However, Ye Fan and Pang Bo felt as if the gaze had penetrated almost to the depths of their bloodline, and that their cultivation level and physique had been seen through.
"It's actually the Ancient Sacred Body? It's said that once this physique is fully developed, it can even rival that of an emperor. It's truly extraordinary!" exclaimed the Sun Saintess.
However, although she was moved, she was not too shocked. She had received Zhou Qing's Dao Blood Baptism and had seen Zhou Qing freely change his various physiques in the Chaos Immortal Land, including the Ancient Sacred Body. As a result, she would not be too surprised even if she saw a real Ancient Sacred Body now.
After all, nothing surprised her more than Zhou Qing, and her horizons had broadened considerably.
"My Lord, what is the name of this powerful woman?" Ye Fan asked curiously after a moment of silence.
The woman in front of him was truly terrifying. Although she appeared gentle, his system clearly told him that she was actually a powerful being!
Moreover, he is only in his early twenties, and belongs to the same generation as the prodigies of Qishi Mansion.
Ye Fan had secretly used the system to investigate the number of young powerful figures in Qishi Mansion, and they could be counted on one hand. In other words, if this woman went to Qishi Mansion, she could become a regional overlord.
And this celestial beauty actually addressed the God Lord as "Master" from the very beginning? This made Ye Fan's mind wander, conjuring up a whole host of scenarios.
"This is the Holy Maiden of the Ancient Sun Cult, from the Purple Star Region," Zhou Qing introduced.
"A saintess from the Ziwei Star Region? She actually has such a high level of cultivation. Her talent is too strong!" Ye Fan was shocked.
Ye Fan didn't say these words aloud, but he thought about them in his heart. However, the Sun Saintess was so powerful that she could tell what he was thinking from Ye Fan's little expression.
The Sun Saintess explained with a smile, "We..."
The cultivation environment is different. Since Zhou Qing severed his Dao six years ago, my cultivation environment has undergone tremendous changes. One year of cultivation here is equivalent to three or four years outside.
Before Zhou Qing gave her the Blood Baptism, her combat strength was only at the fourth or fifth level, which was a very ordinary Saintess combat strength. Her talent was not considered top-notch. If she were in the Qishi Mansion, she would be considered a floor-level existence. She had cultivated for many years but had not broken through to the Great Power level.
It was only after the baptism of blood that his physique underwent a transformation, and the limit of his potential reached the seventh level of prohibition, which allowed him to break through that barrier and make rapid progress in combat power.
This was Zhou Qing's attempt to study the evolution of the Heavenly Dao Embryo after researching his own physical constitution, but it seems that it has not been successful so far.
However, this was within Zhou Qing's expectations. After all, he was only a half-saint at that time, but now his physique has been transformed once again. The Bitter Sea has become the innate Great Dao Origin Sea, and his Dao Blood has also gained the ability to change in countless ways. Given enough time, he believes that he may not be unable to develop a cultivation plan for the acquired Dao Embryo.
Even a saint cannot do it. At worst, he can advance to a higher realm, which will be an even greater leap in physique. He will eventually perfect his acquired Dao embryo and cultivate the ability to become an Eight Forbidden Prodigy.
This was also part of his plan, so he couldn't help but sigh again. His body simply wasn't strong enough, and he didn't know when it would be his turn to carry out the plan.
"Ye Fan, Pang Bo, you can leave now. Go and meet up with your old classmates. I don't have time to give you detailed instruction yet, but you can go and take a look in the treasure vault. I've put a lot of precious materials and scriptures in there, which can broaden your horizons," Zhou Qing said.
Ye Fan and Pang Bo agreed and then left.
Zhou Qing's Dao body couldn't be idle either. He said to the Sun Saintess, "I want to change the terrain of the God Lord Island and transform it into a more mysterious cultivation holy land. You can take a look and learn from it. All methods are interconnected. If you also have a good talent for the great forces of mountains and rivers, I can also teach you the Origin Technique."
Next, Zhou Qing slowly landed on the island. With a wave of his hand, he displayed a source technique that surpassed all others, his whole body glowing like an eternal god.
One after another, divine light poured down from between his fingers, transforming into beams of soft light that were all-pervasive, penetrating the void and weaving into a vast net of primordial energy, merging into the world and transforming into various mysterious and unpredictable powers.
This was a world-changing technique. In just a short moment, the island began to rumble, its terrain undulating, waterfalls cascading, and hills shifting, forming a unique landscape under Zhou Qing's deliberate manipulation.
This is a layout surrounded by eight rivers, with jade belts weaving through it. Pavilions and towers are located at special nodes, with various small artificial mountains, man-made desert scenery, mountains and sea complementing each other, and small bridges and flowing water. It almost shrinks the vast landscape into this place.
"This formation is called the Mountain and Sea State Formation. Its defense is average, but I don't need it for defense. Its effect of gathering the essence of heaven and earth is quite strong. But most importantly, it has a special power that can cultivate a person's mind and temperament. When a person lives in it, the general situation of the world is at a glance. It is first-class in cultivating a person's spirit and vision." Zhou Qing said calmly.
This was a powerful force of nature he had created using his Origin Technique cultivation. Now, as he was using it for the first time, he wondered how effective it would be. Although he had some guesses, he still stayed here for a few days to experience it for himself.
After confirming that this trend did indeed possess the mysterious power he had suspected, he took out the "Book of Origin" and wrote the array he had created on a new page, thus leaving his first mark as the sixth generation Origin Master.
Chapter 260 A Class Reunion in Beidou
Several days later, a piece of news gradually spread throughout the northern region of the Eastern Wilderness, and all who heard it were astonished.
"What did you say? The Zhou family head is getting a new head? The new patriarch is taking over, and the enthronement ceremony will be held next month?"
The people of the Eastern Wilderness were dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.
"This is too fast! How many years has the God Lord cultivated? Compared to his lifespan, his life can be said to have just begun. Moreover, the current head of the Zhou family is not old at all, but is still at his peak!"
Originally, the effects of Zhou Qing's formidable strength displayed at Qishi Mansion had not yet subsided.
The spread of this news is like adding fuel to the fire, making the situation even more heated.
During this period, no other news could overshadow the popularity of the name "God Lord". In Beidou, it was already a household name, and its name could be heard everywhere.
At the same time, all parties involved started to work together, pondering the deeper meaning behind the Zhou family's move.
Meanwhile, at the Zhou family residence, Zhou Qing was sitting opposite a girl in white. Amidst the pervasive magical energy, a flawless white teapot floated up, pouring out two cups of fragrant, radiant Enlightenment Tea.
"Zhou Qing, you won't mind if I come here to mooch your Enlightenment Tea, will you?" the girl in white joked.
"It's just a cup of Enlightenment Tea. Compared to that, I'd rather know how Senior Gai Jiuyou's cultivation is going?" Zhou Qing said with a smile, then raised his cup to indicate that they had each taken a small sip of the Enlightenment Tea.
The tea transformed into a radiant light the moment it entered the mouth, bringing a sense of tranquility and inspiring various insights. The scriptures, secret techniques, and profound truths learned were all absorbed into the heart, slowly progressing and sublimating.
Xia Jiuyou closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. After a while, she opened her eyes, her cultivation having improved somewhat.
At this moment, she spoke up and said, "Master has been sitting in meditation for several years without moving. I don't know the specifics, but according to what Master told me, his progress is not obvious. At Master's level, it is already very difficult to improve one's strength. It is extremely difficult to become even slightly stronger."
Xia Jiuyou shook her head, her excitement subsiding, and let out a sigh.
“Senior Gai is still not satisfied and wants to further improve his strength at this stage, deepen his foundation, and finally break through the limits of his physique,” Zhou Qing said calmly.
"Breaking through the limits of one's physique is not so easy. It is extremely difficult for Master to achieve the combat power of a Great Perfection Saint Body with a mortal body," Xia Jiuyou said with a wry smile.
Although it is called a mortal body, it is actually quite extraordinary. It should be considered to have exceptional talent, but it does not have any physical abnormalities or special divine treasures, so it is called a mortal body.
“Generally speaking, instead of thinking about how to improve one’s Great Dao and ultimately break through the limits of one’s physique with the Great Dao, it is better to directly think about how to transform one’s physique. Many great emperors throughout history have chosen this path,” Zhou Qing said.
"Yes, but judging from Master's expression, he had no doubts about the path he had chosen, as if he was very certain that it was a viable one," Xia Jiuyou recalled.
After a moment, she suddenly asked, "I once heard my master say by chance..."
As mentioned before, it seems your Zhou family's ancestors successfully traversed the first path back then?
“That’s right, but my Zhou family ancestor cannot be judged by common sense. His success is not replicable. It was only through a series of coincidences that he was able to achieve it.” Zhou Qing nodded and admitted.
The Zhou family's ancestor once roamed the universe, virtually invincible, and was also a close friend of the Great Emperor Wushi. His every move could stir up the winds and clouds of the universe, all thanks to his heaven-defying strength.
However, Zhou Qing knew very well that this person would not have existed in the original timeline. The reason for the change was that the Zhou family ancestor obtained some kind of mysterious power from outside the Shrouding the Heavens universe.
This power comes from that mysterious "him," who may also be called Zhou Qing himself, except that he does not remember his memories of that period.
Zhou Qing's memories from the time he transmigrated to the time of his birth were flawless. If it weren't for his trip to the Ziwei Star Region, he wouldn't have been aware of the problems within him.
However, he now knows that although the Zhou family ancestor had successfully traversed the first path and broken through the limits of his physique with supreme divine power, the reasons behind it were too complex, and it was almost impossible for Gai Jiuyou to follow the path of the Zhou family ancestor.
“Master said that it would have been very difficult to take this path in the past, but this era is different. He couldn’t explain exactly what the difference was. It’s not about the path to immortality, but a more complex change. I didn’t understand it at the time; it was too profound,” Xia Jiuyou said helplessly.
"Different?" Zhou Qing asked thoughtfully.
"Let's not talk about that. I heard people in your Zhou family talking about how you're going to take over as the head of the family in a month. Is that true?" Xia Jiuyou asked curiously.
“It’s true. You’ll stay here for a month, and when the succession ceremony is held, the Zhou family will invite many forces to witness it. You’ll also see the future successors of many forces and broaden your horizons. Maybe some of the holy sons and daughters you’ve fought before will be among them,” Zhou Qing said with a smile.
“Alright, I’ve never seen what the succession of a powerful force like yours looks like before. Let me see for myself this time.” Xia Jiuyou was also full of anticipation.
As time went by, most of the Zhou family elders who had left returned to the Hui people one after another.
Every day, powerful members of the tribe would return from the outside world, causing a sensation.
"Look, that's Elder Zhou Chang. He's the one who's in charge of the Taichu Mining Area. He's actually back. It's said that when the God Lord first went out for training as a child, it was this elder who led him out."
This was an old man dressed in blue, with a face as white as jade and hair as white as snow. A path of magical power stretched out from beneath his feet, leading straight to the depths of his family.
