Chapter 193: Divine Lord Dayan's Warning!
"Kid, there's something wrong with that fellow—a big problem. He definitely has some significant secrets. You'd better be careful; he's certainly not as good as he claims. I suspect he was sent by those Old fellows specifically to get close to you. Otherwise, why would he be so considerate? It's truly too strange." Divine Lord Dayan's words made Zhao Changsheng smile, then he nodded and spoke.
"I naturally understand what Senior is saying, but none of that is important. What matters is what we need to do now. As for that guy, he can do whatever he wants. If he can help me, that's for the best. If he can't help, or if he dares to cause trouble, then he shouldn't blame me for being ruthless. However, he does have some talent. With such a fast cultivation speed, I haven't encountered a second person in today's Cultivation World besides myself. I just don't know if he can successfully advance to the Soul Transformation Stage in the future and then ascend to the Spirit Realm. If he really can ascend, it would be a good thing. That way, I'd have a decent helper in the Spirit Realm."
"To be honest, I'm also quite curious about this kid. How exactly did he Cultivate to such a level? Although he explained it clearly, I always feel something is off, like there's something he's not saying. Regardless, you must stay on guard; you can't be too careless with this kid, or you won't even know how you died. There's another matter that is most important: those few imitation heaven-reaching spiritual treasures of the Ye Family. Truly, every one of those imitation treasures is something we must obtain. One of them has already been reserved by several other Schools, and they will surely fight for it. For us, its use isn't particularly great, so it's fine if we get it, but the last two are mandatory because they are the key to entering Kunwu Mountain. Furthermore, the heaven-reaching spiritual treasures within Kunwu Mountain must be obtained; those are true Spirit Treasures. There can't be any mistakes. You'll also need those two treasures for your future Ascension to the Spirit Realm. Without them—especially the one with Space Attributes—trying to ascend to the Spirit Realm is a complete joke."
"I imagine Senior also hopes to ascend to the Spirit Realm. If you can, perhaps you could truly be resurrected, and I wouldn't have to spend so much effort helping you transform into a ghost cultivator. So, my point is... how should I put it? Senior, don't transform into a ghost cultivator yet. Wait a bit longer until I can ascend. I'll see if I can use the laws of the Spirit Realm to resurrect you. According to those laws, even the lifespan of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator is much longer than in the Mortal Realm. At that time, Senior might truly be able to resurrect without needing special means to become a ghost cultivator. That way, with Senior's talent, let alone the Body Integration Stage, even the Mahayana Stage wouldn't be out of reach in the future."
"This would be of immense benefit to our entire Human Race—not just some benefit, but an enormous one. This is beyond doubt and absolutely certain; there's no need to worry. It's completely certain, so don't fret about anything. Another thing is that the current situation of the Human Race isn't great, but regardless, as long as Senior can successfully advance, it will definitely be a good thing."
"By the way, Senior, how much confidence do you have in the ghost cultivator transformation? Although I said I was confident before, I was actually lying to you, so I hope Senior can forgive me."
Zhao Changsheng's words caused Divine Lord Dayan to let out a disgruntled, cold laugh.
"This old man naturally knew you were lying, but seeing as you were sincere in your intentions, I won't blame you. However, you must be careful in the future. It's fine to lie to this old man, but don't deceive too many people, or it won't do you any good."
"Junior naturally understands. It's only because Senior is relatively easy to fool that I chose to do so. But I feel the most important matter at hand is Kunwu Mountain. Senior is fully aware of the causes and consequences; I've explained it all. Senior should understand how much trouble is involved, so I plan to refine the Puppets I mentioned first. That way, they can be of great help when we go there."
"To be honest, if it weren't a last resort, I really wouldn't want to take this step first because time is a bit tight. But time really is running out."
"Right now, the Ye Family's movements are getting larger and larger. Even if they don't act, I must. After all, the matter of Kunwu Mountain cannot wait any longer. Waiting won't benefit us, and even if we are willing to wait, those bastards from the Righteous and Demonic Paths won't. Given such an opportunity, they will surely want to seize it, and their goal is also to eliminate me."
"The Space Attribute heaven-reaching spiritual treasure on Kunwu Mountain might very well counter my immortal extermination pearl—at least by enabling Spatial Solidification. If so, the effectiveness of the immortal extermination pearl will be greatly reduced. Consequently, my threat to them will decrease significantly, and they'll have the confidence to wipe me out completely. That's one of their goals. They certainly don't have good intentions; I'm very clear on that. They are using the Ye Family, and the Ye Family likely knows it too. But the Ye Family has already started down this path; even if they wanted to give up, the Righteous and Demonic Paths would never allow it. It's also because of me that their intelligence was exposed, and similarly because of me that they can live a bit longer."
"I just hope the Ye Family can succeed as soon as possible, so that what I need to do can also succeed quickly. This matter concerns the entire Mortal Realm and, more importantly, whether I can successfully ascend to the Spirit Realm. Therefore, it must be completed perfectly. No mistakes can occur—absolutely none. Even the slightest error would lead to unpredictable consequences, completely unpredictable."
"I think you should understand these things as well. To be honest, the situation in the Mortal Realm is indeed not optimistic. Any tiny mistake would lead to unimaginable consequences. Solving such consequences wouldn't be easy. For now, I don't have any good methods. Although it could be solved, the price to be paid is too high. It's absolutely impossible for me to pay such a high price to solve such a troublesome matter in a short time. I can't do it, and I won't do it. I am no Saint."
"Kid, your mood is very poor right now. You'd better stabilize your state of mind and stop thinking about all this nonsense. If you continue like this, your state of mind might develop problems, which will have a huge impact on your future Breakthroughs. What you need to do now is to calmly focus on one thing, put all these worries behind you, and set them aside for now. You absolutely cannot overthink this anymore. If you do, your mind won't be able to handle it. You should know this."
You must be clear on this, do you understand?"
Divine Lord Dayan's concerned words made Zhao Changsheng feel a bit better, and his originally agitated state of mind settled down quite a bit. It was precisely because of the previous events that his mind had been in an unstable state.
If it continued, it would have a major impact on Zhao Changsheng's subsequent Breakthroughs and cultivation, which was exactly what Divine Lord Dayan was worried about.
"I can't help it. There have been too many things happening lately, and solving them isn't easy. I don't have the time or energy to deal with them all right now. That's why my mood became so terrible and my mind so chaotic. But since Senior has spoken, I will try my best to set these matters aside and calm my mind first. Sigh, it's truly a troublesome matter. Still, I must thank Senior for the reminder. If not for Senior's warning, I might have fallen into a state of Qi Deviation. Even if I recovered, my state of mind would be affected, which wouldn't be good for Breakthroughs. I understand this now. Thank you for the reminder, Senior."
"It's good that you understand. Even without me, you could have recovered, but the price would have been quite high. You'd better not think about those things now; they're meaningless to you at the moment. What you need to do is recover properly and stop dwelling on them. Weren't you going to prepare to refine the Puppets I mentioned? Then start studying the art of Artifact Refining now, especially the methods for refining Puppet Materials. You'd better research it thoroughly to avoid failure. Once you fail, the consequences are unimaginable, as these Materials are not easy to obtain. I think you should understand and realize this."
"Senior is right. Then let's first research the refining of these Puppets. As long as we can refine them, everything that follows shouldn't be a problem."
"In any case, although the situation is urgent, it's not entirely out of control. As long as we can manage it well, things will be resolved naturally."
"I also hope things can be resolved naturally, but whether they can be solved so easily is truly an unknown. I can't guarantee it. However, one thing is certain: the current situation is no longer as optimistic as before. Many things have exceeded my expectations, and many have deviated from my original plan."
"My original plan wasn't this simple, but now flaws have appeared, and it's a far cry from before. To be honest, I didn't expect things to deviate so much or be this bad. It's something I never anticipated. Now, I must find ways to make changes."
"Alright, did you not hear a single word I just said? Stop thinking about these things. They don't have much meaning for you—at least for the current you, you absolutely cannot keep overthinking. Otherwise, your state of mind will definitely be affected. Once that happens, trying to do anything properly will be trouble; you'll be easily manipulated by others."
"Especially for your Breakthrough, it has a massive impact. You must understand this. You must get this straight and put all these chaotic matters down. Don't let them become a mental block. Once they become a block, solving them later won't be easy—it could be fatal. You must be clear on this, kid. Now, honestly do as I say and put all your energy into refining the Puppets. Don't think about the rest. Whether it's Kunwu Mountain or those old fogies, don't worry about their schemes. I'll help you find a way to deal with those old fogies. And for Kunwu Mountain, I'll also find a way to formulate a suitable plan for you so you can resolve it smoothly without being too deeply affected. You can rest assured on that. You could be said to be my most proud Disciple. Although you haven't officially acknowledged me as your master, you are indeed the Disciple I am most proud of and care about most. So, I don't want you to be affected by this. Therefore, you must honestly do as I say."
Divine Lord Dayan's exasperated words made Zhao Changsheng nod and say with a smile.
"Senior, please rest assured. I know and understand; I won't act recklessly. You can be at ease. I certainly won't make any mistakes—not even a tiny one. You can trust me on this. Don't you trust my character? My character is top-notch, absolutely no problem. And I know the weight of this matter; I definitely won't let anything go wrong. After all, this doesn't just concern the future of the entire Mortal Realm, but also whether I can smoothly ascend to the Spirit Realm. I won't mess around. Plus, it also concerns whether you can successfully be resurrected and reborn, which is a most vital issue. How could I be careless? How could I mess around, right? Isn't that so? If I were to mess around, wouldn't you be the first to beat me to death? So, old man, don't worry; nothing will happen. I'll take good care of myself. There won't be any problems or any chaos. You don't need to worry about these things; I can solve them all. I guarantee there won't be any issues."
