Chapter 60: The Pain in Father’s Heart That No One Can Understand

The news of Shui Qingrou awakening her mysterious constitution and being accepted as a disciple by a Supreme Elder caused a huge stir within the sect.

Suddenly, countless people were envious and jealous because Shui Qingrou had practically ascended to the heavens in one step!

Moreover, it was said that this once unattractive girl had transformed into a stunning beauty with an ethereal aura after her constitution awakened.

The ugly duckling had turned into a beautiful swan!

Many female disciples were beating the...

Chapter 59: The Supreme Elder Takes a Disciple

At night, Shui Qingrou lay in bed, contemplating how she should give the pill to Senior Brother Qin Zi.

If she handed it over directly, it might seem like she was currying favor, and Qin Zi might think of her as a shallow person.

But if she gave it anonymously, Qin Zi wouldn't know it was from her, and that thought left her feeling unsatisfied.

The worst part would be if, by some twist of fate, Qin Zi mistakenly thought another woman had given it to him and developed feelings for her...

That would make her want...

Chapter 58: Who Is the Luckiest One?

A few days later, a golden pillar of light shot into the sky from the peak where Zhao Yunsheng resided, piercing through the clouds! He had also broken through to the Nirvana Realm.

Then, in front of all the sect's higher-ups, he made a surprising request—to leave the sect and travel the world! This decision shocked many.

Of course, the seasoned elders quickly understood his reasoning.

As the saying goes, "One mountain cannot contain two tigers."

With Qin Zi’s rising prominence, Zhao Yunsheng had been overs...

Chapter 57: The World Is So Big, He Wants to See It

At the edge of a cliff, under a crooked pine tree, an ancient stone table and two stone stools were set up.

A steaming tea kettle sat on the stone table, with a few light brown tea leaves swirling inside.

Zhao Yunsheng sat on one of the stone stools, waiting for Qin Zi to arrive.

"Senior Brother Zhao, you were looking for me?"

Finally, a cheerful voice rang out.

Zhao Yunsheng turned to see Qin Zi approaching with a bright, sunny smile, walking with the confidence of a dragon and tiger.

So full of se...

Chapter 56: The Great Calamity Pill

"Does it hurt?"

The old man in green robes looked at his grandson and asked calmly.

Zhao Yunsheng lowered his head and remained silent.

He was too ashamed to respond.

The old man shook his head and continued, "You lost. So what? It's not a big deal. The world is vast, and there are many who are stronger than you."

"Just within the Nine Yang Dynasty alone, there are a few young prodigies you would find difficult to defeat. I'm sure you know that."

"If that's the case, why be so fixated on others bein...

Chapter 175: Arrival of the Duke of Blue Diamond

Rumble...

Suddenly, a tremor reverberated across the vast, empty land.

Rhett cast a powerful Earthquake Spell.

Following that, three sand wolves, forming a triangular formation, descended from midair and, under Rhett's control, began to battle each other fiercely.

The surrounding ground was trampled, gradually stirring up a mix of yellow-brown dust.

An hour later...

Rhett exhaled deeply, pausing his training. He condensed a stone block using his mental power and sat cross-legged on it, beginning to ...

Chapter 174: Morge's Breakthrough

The readers of this world have never experienced the immersive nature of web novels. The fantastical imagination, intriguing setups, and endless thrilling moments can be overwhelming for most people, like a dimensional blow. Considering that Coiling Dragon dominated the rankings for many years during the Bronze Age of web novels, Rhett wasn’t surprised by such reactions.

He nodded slightly, adopting a profound expression as he gently stroked Taylors' soft blonde hair and said:

"Taylors, there's no need to b...

Chapter 173: The Dragon Manuscript

After thinking for a moment, Gade continued, "Active in the waters around the Eastern Blue Coast... there should only be these four. Perhaps there are other pirates in the deeper parts of the ocean. However, going further east beyond ten thousand miles leads to the vast Storm Seas. Anyone below the Saint level would be taking an immense risk, with a slim chance of survival."

The Storm Seas were a region plagued by constant strong winds, torrential rains, and frequent lightning storms. The harsh natural conditions, coupled with t...

Chapter 172: The Sea Spirit

Firecrest's weak gaze brightened with a touch of color as it lifted its head and began pecking at the leaves like a chick, quickly swallowing them down.

Gaining some strength, Firecrest flapped its wings twice and stood up.

It let out a low chirp: "Chirp!" (I want more)

"I'm all out, but we've got plenty at home!" Rhett smiled, gently stroking Firecrest's feathers.

"Chirp!" (Okay!)

With a push of its legs, Firecrest spread its four-meter-long wings and flew over Rhett's head. Seeing this, Rhett thought to...

Chapter 171: Firecrest's Breakthrough

Henk held the paper as if he were carrying a mountain, feeling immense pressure.

He took a deep breath and said with a strained voice, "Lord Rhett, I... I'll do my best! But I can't guarantee success yet. This isn't an ordinary alchemical potion; it requires extremely advanced alchemical skills. Only those alchemists who can consistently achieve an 80-90% success rate with their potions can ensure steady production. As for me, even if I succeed, the failure rate will likely be alarmingly high."

Rhett smiled slightly and wa...

Chapter 175: Why Not Save Them If You Can

Not far away, a small tent was set up, with a fire still burning outside. The person who had previously warned Lin Xiao was sitting inside, meditating, completely unaware that Lin Xiao had suddenly appeared nearby.

Lin Xiao thought for a moment and decided not to disturb the man. He quietly picked up the formation plate from the ground and left the area.

Using his Cloud Step technique, he quickly circled the massive snow mountain, occasionally checking the spirit stones in the formation plate. There were still 1,052 left, which m...

Chapter 174: Exiting the Ice Cave

Yin Xuánzǐ suddenly sensed something unusual. It was a vague, fleeting feeling that left him puzzled. Ever since he dealt with that old dog Liao Pantu decades ago, he had been at peace and hadn’t experienced such discomfort in a long time.

Could it be that Liao Pantu had escaped?

Impossible!

He had personally split Liao Pantu's soul into parts and placed seals on each fragment. He had also watched as different people took these soul fragments into various secret realms. Those who entered the realms were merely Qi Refine...

Chapter 173: The Heart of the Icefield Secret Realm

Liang Zhonghuai and Yu Guang were familiar with Yuan Zhiyun. As information gatherers for Wànwàn Tōng, one of their priorities upon arriving in Yuanling City was to conduct thorough investigations on all the influential local powers. The Yuan family was among those that their Yuanling branch particularly needed to foster good relations with. So, when Yuan Zhiyun introduced herself as the Yuan family’s young master, they quickly decided to help her as long as her request wasn’t too unreasonable.

 Yuan Zhiyun then explained t...

Chapter 172: Divergence

"Senior, are you all right now?" Lin Xiao asked.

Liao Pantou nodded and, after stepping out of the ice coffin, turned around and absorbed the entire ice coffin into his soul body.

Lin Xiao wasn't particularly surprised to see him store the coffin within his soul, having already seen Liao Pantou retrieve various items from his soul before. "What’s the use of this ice coffin?" Lin Xiao inquired.

After safely stowing the ice coffin, Liao Pantou explained, "This is a Cold Ice Coffin. It's not particularly useful—ju...

Chapter 171: Unsealing

On the other side, as Lin Xiao was nearing the completion of his task of excavating the house, Liao Pantou suddenly sent a frantic voice transmission from the Soul-Nourishing Pendant, shouting, "Lin Xiao, hurry! Forget about those remaining scraps—come quickly, over here!"

Startled by Liao Pantou's urgency, Lin Xiao immediately dropped what he was doing and dashed in the direction indicated by the translucent hand extending from his chest.

As he rushed along, he questioned, "Weren't you just telling me not to hurry? Wh...

Chapter 265: Run Quickly

"Any enemy who opposes the Hua Xia Empire has only one path—death!"

"The Hua Xia Empire is invincible. If the Qin Dynasty dares to harbor ill intentions, they will only become a laughingstock, smashing eggs against a rock," Zhao Long declared with a murderous aura and unwavering pride.

Ye Xin could understand Zhao Long's confidence. She had witnessed firsthand the unimaginable strength of the Hua Xia Empire on that colossal planet. However, just because she knew didn't mean everyone else did.

For example, Zhang Zid...

Chapter 264: The Qin Dynasty

The disciples of the Eight Mystical Hall soon disappeared from sight, while the Black Blade Fish Clan continued their journey without giving chase. Meanwhile, the one-armed member of the Black Blade Fish Clan savored the severed arm of the Eight Mystical Hall disciple, basking in the envious gazes of his fellow clansmen.

Lin Qian gradually dispersed the soul energy in his eyes, ceasing his observation of the Black Blade Fish Clan. His brows furrowed as he pondered deeply.

Seeing Lin Qian's troubled expression, Ye Xin walke...

Chapter 263: Crystal Clear

As soon as Lin Qian said those words, the people in front of him were visibly shocked. Especially Zhang Zide, who almost jumped up in disbelief. "Brother Lin, you must be joking. You've been here the whole time, either making a breakthrough or being with us. How could you have had time to encounter the Black Blade Fish Clan?"

"If you had run into that one-armed Black Blade Fish Clan member before, you would have told us earlier," Zhang Zide continued, still skeptical. "Besides, when that one-armed Black Blade Fish Clan member wa...

Chapter 262: Resurrection

Lin Qian and Ye Xin's breakthrough to the next realm was of utmost importance, and nothing could be allowed to disturb them. Apart from the ever-loyal Zhao Long, Zhang Zide, Li Yunfeng, Zhang Qi, and Zhang Wenshuan also kept a vigilant watch, ensuring that no one would attempt to interfere or take advantage of the situation. The potential impact on Ye Xin was particularly concerning, while Lin Qian seemed unfazed by any possible interruptions—even engaging in combat wouldn't likely hinder his progress.

For most, breaking throu...

Chapter 261: Beyond Imagination

Whoosh!

The sound of something cutting through the air echoed as an eight-armed sea creature, shrouded in a blue watery soul force, flew in from afar. As it landed on the ground, water splashed around, revealing its figure.

"Wow, Brother Lin, this ride of yours is truly impressive," Zhang Zide exclaimed, looking at the grand carriage that had come to a stop.

However, something felt off to Zhang Zide. Lin Qian and Ye Xin appeared to be cultivating on the carriage, but given his arrival, they should have noticed and re...

Chapter 470: Schemes

Zhuge Liang briefly activated his spiritual abilities and then turned to Chen Xi. "There are three Inner Qi practitioners and two top strategists waiting for us dozens of miles ahead." After saying this, Zhuge Liang felt a slight headache. "One of them is a familiar face, though I can't fathom why he is here."

"You have familiar faces? Is it your brother?" Chen Xi raised an eyebrow. He had sensed something off with the dispersing fog and guessed that Zhou Yu was waiting for them a few dozen miles away. However, Zhuge Liang's per...

Chapter 469: They Have Arrived...

The mere thought of such a scenario sent chills down Chen Xi's spine. If Yu Province were in Yuan Shu's hands, it would be as easy to manipulate as a chess piece, with countless traps laid. If Chen Xi weren't concerned about being attacked by multiple enemies, he would have taken Yu Province for himself long ago—after all, it’s a place abundant in both population and grain!

But if that place were to fall into Sun Ce's hands, do you know what kind of situation that would be? At the very least, Chen Xi definitely did not want ...

Chapter 468: Zhou Gongjin, You Are Ruthless!

Zhuge Liang didn’t concern himself with what kind of shadow he might be leaving on Lu Xun. After all, he had gone through similar ability tests himself. But compared to this relatively simple test he was conducting for Lu Xun, his own experience had been much more intense—administered by none other than Chen Xi, with Lu Su, Liu Ye, Jia Xu, Li You, Man Chong, and Mi Zhu all involved.

Of course, Guo Jia wasn’t present at that time, so Fa Zheng took his place. Every time Zhuge Liang thought back to that test, he felt that aft...

Chapter 467: Unconscious Overpowering and Crushing

Lu Xun looked bitterly at Zhuge Liang. The young man before him, only a couple of years older, seemed to have an overwhelming intellectual advantage. Lu Xun had asked every question he could think of, and Zhuge Liang had answered them all. What frustrated Lu Xun even more was that Zhuge Liang's expression remained unchanged, a detached indifference, regardless of what Lu Xun asked.

"Any more questions?" Zhuge Liang calmly set aside the book that Cai Yan had transcribed and looked at Lu Xun, who had been staring at him. It wasn't...

Chapter 466: The Changing Weather

Chen Xi might overlook Lu Xun's thoughts, but Zhuge Liang, known for his meticulous thinking, certainly wouldn’t. Even if Zhuge Liang guessed Lu Xun's intentions, he showed no signs of rejection. To Zhuge Liang, Lu Xun was still too inexperienced. Even in Lu Xun’s best area, military strategy, he was no match for Zhuge Liang.

"Boyan, bring The Grand Strategy and follow me. Let's do a test so I can gauge your current level," Zhuge Liang said calmly, walking past Lu Xun with an indifferent tone, leaving him with ...

Chapter 465: Too Many Unbelievable Things

"Because, Master, you’re stronger than him," Lu Xun said, pointing at Zhuge Liang.

"..." Chen Xi looked up at the sky speechlessly. That reason was certainly pragmatic, but it did fit Lu Xun's character—he was indeed a realist.

Zhuge Liang also sighed. This kid… Zhuge Liang suddenly felt a bit childish himself.

"That’s a good reason," Chen Xi said, patting Lu Xun's shoulder. "Let me first tell you what I know. Astronomy, geography, the art of war, formations, yin-yang, military strategies, rewards and punishm...

Chapter 464: Becoming Your Disciple

"Hey, why do I get the feeling that Boyan seems like he's been thoroughly crushed by you?" Chen Xi turned his head and asked Zhuge Liang, who had a calm expression, sensing that Zhuge Liang's demeanor seemed similar to when he pretended to be indifferent to avoid being noticed while daydreaming.

"I was outside the cabin reading 'Strategies of the Universe,' and he came over to take a look. I’ve gone through this book dozens of times, and I’ve pretty much grasped its essence. I was just flipping through it when he told me I d...

Chapter 463: When Young Lu Xun Encounters the Enhanced Version of Zhuge Liang...

Regarding Li You, Chen Deng had nothing more to say. If things were truly as he suspected, then Li You's intelligence and ability were undoubtedly at the pinnacle of the era. Although his methods were ruthless, his capability couldn't be denied. If future developments aligned with Chen Deng's assumptions, then all he could do was look up to Li You with admiration.

Chen Deng couldn't help but ponder Li You's background, much like how others initially questioned Chen Xi's origins when he first displayed his extraordinary talents. ...

Chapter 462: The Way of Kings

Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Liu Ye, Li You, and others were all originally experts in the art of deceit, or what is called the strategic path of trickery. Essentially, this strategy involves using war to sustain war, relying on plunder, abandoning internal development, and directly annexing surrounding areas. The key is to defeat external forces before internal troubles erupt, and then settle down to recuperate.

This path is not unfeasible. For example, the historical Cao Cao, and the Cao Cao of this era, fundamentally followed this strate...

Chapter 461: Li You's Strategy for Xuzhou

Chen Xi didn't say much more. The Lu family's gift was essentially designing a warship for Xu Sheng. Of course, if Xu Sheng hadn't been there, the first warship would have naturally gone to Gan Ning. After all, once the shipyard in Donglai was established, Liu Bei's policies would favor such projects.

The first ship was intended as a trial, with Liu Bei's side providing the materials. It served not only as practice for the Lu family but also as a gesture of goodwill. After all, in this era, the core technology of shipbuilding wa...
