188: Dark Water Sky Purification

"Alright, Wang Long, don't make that face."

The manager's mouth twitched: "If you can do it, do it. If you can't, leave. Don't think about fanciful things. You're all adults, don't fantasize about fairy tales."

After the manager finished speaking, he didn't say much more, just looked at Wang Long with a playful gaze.

Wang Long was filled with resentment, constantly recalling Immortal Master Moon Abyss's words about an "invincible Dao Heart."

If I back down here, what kind of invincibility is that?

Thinking this, Wang Long immediately slammed the table, stood up fiercely, and cursed: "What did Seiya say when they heavily scouted me? After ditching Ye Chun, you just turn your back on me?"

The manager remained unperturbed: "Alright, Wang Long, I'll give you another option. We will exchange players with the Thunder Team. As long as you agree and sign the contract, you can go to the Thunder Team."

With that, the manager chuckled again: "At Thunder, you might even become their ace, with everyone revolving around you."

This was a society with a developed gaming industry, where professional players were numerous, and professional clubs were equally plentiful. Player transfers were not uncommon.

However, for someone like Wang Long, who had just been heavily scouted not long ago and was now being transferred to another club, it clearly indicated a problem. It was a denial of his abilities. After this transfer, his commercial value would continuously decline.

Moreover, Wang Long knew in his heart that Seiya, Red Rain, and Liu Zhuan were all first-tier clubs, while Thunder was a second-tier one.

Don't be fooled by the fact that everyone was just venturing into the Xuanhuan World; the disparity in club strength was already evident. It was said that the Thunder Team's members were still holed up near Qinghe Town, circling the Newbie Village.

Make him go to such a team?

Wang Long was furious and wanted to lash out on the spot.

But the manager continued:

"Wang Long, I advise you to accept it. Your current character still has a soul body, which is worth some money. If your character dies suddenly and the soul body is gone, everything will start from scratch. Thunder might not even want you then."

Wang Long clenched his fists tightly, his heart full of unwillingness, but faced with reality, he still had to bow his head. He merely snorted, and in the end, signed the transfer contract.

After all, the transfer contract offered significantly better treatment compared to staying with Seiya.

'When I comprehend the invincible Dao Heart, when I leap to become a Prodigy in the Xuanhuan World, I will make all of you regret it!'

...Xuanhuan World.

The hustle and bustle of reality did not affect the game world.

As the Xuanhuan World became increasingly popular and the System mechanisms grew more numerous, more and more professional clubs fully entered the Xuanhuan World.

However, just like a certain club that once boasted about establishing a Sect but was then wiped out by native Cultivators, these clubs entering the Xuanhuan World also had to start from scratch, slowly climbing their way up. They couldn't monopolize anything yet, let alone influence the entire Xuanhuan society.

Even after the True Intent and Dao Heart System appeared, professional players seemed to have some advantages.

But when the perspective is broadened to look at the entire player base, it will be found that the number of players with True Intent and Dao Heart sprouts is still greater than that of professional players.

Therefore, when the Nascent Soul Spear Intent bloomed in Mingshui Heaven, in addition to professional players, many others also had similar insights, knowing that they too had True Intent and Dao Heart sprouts.

Some of these people were killed by covetous players, while others secretly hid and escaped Mingshui Heaven.

After a period of lively commotion, only some ordinary players who had no insights and could not perceive any True Intent remained in Mingshui Heaven.

Players who had gained insight into True Intent and Dao Heart almost immediately realized that compared to the various Spirit Medicine, Spirit Ores, or other treasures in Mingshui Heaven, hiding and surviving was more important.

For ordinary players, however, it was different.

To them, the True Intent insight event was over. The next step was a full-scale scavenging of Mingshui Heaven, searching for more good things.

Midnight Gao Sou had the same idea. Although he didn't gain anything good from the Spear Intent, nor did he comprehend the Nascent Soul Inheritance.

However, the Great Love Sect had enough manpower, and the resources it needed were truly vast.

So Midnight Gao Sou directly ordered people to scour Mingshui Heaven extensively, attempting to gather all the treasures there.

But it was at this moment that reports kept coming in:

"Oh no, oh no, we've been ambushed!"

"It's people from the Heshui Prefecture Guild, they're intercepting and killing our players!"

"Great God Ye Chun has also made a move! My goodness, he really has an Immortal Foundation!"

"Sect Master, help!"

Seeing the messages, Midnight Gao Sou was greatly startled.

"How did Ye Chun Breakthrough so quickly?"

He was a little flustered.

He knew his own situation; evil Cultivators cultivated very quickly, and their number of Foundation Establishment was far ahead, but their combat power was one worse than the other.

Ye Chun was not only a professional player, his combat skill was absolutely superb, and he had also achieved Breakthrough through the Nascent Soul Inheritance, so his cultivation would definitely not be superficial.

Midnight Gao Sou had no confidence at all in dealing with Ye Chun or the Heshui Prefecture Guild.

But for him to directly lead his people to flee Mingshui Heaven was absolutely impossible.

After some thought, Midnight Gao Sou quickly sent messages to Old Potato and others, wanting to resolve Ye Chun together.

"Gao Sou, have you forgotten? We just restarted, going there now would be suicide."

Seeing Old Potato's reply, Midnight Gao Sou paused, then patted his forehead.

Indeed, they had previously searched for Ye Chun, but were deterred by the Nascent Soul Spear Intent, and a large number of people died.

"Wait..."

Midnight Gao Sou suddenly froze.

They had just suffered losses from the Spear Intent. If they went there again now, what if that Spear Intent still remained and could continue to kill enemies?

Thinking of this, Midnight Gao Sou quickly asked Star Fiend Daoist.

Star Fiend Daoist said faintly: "Now you know why a strong person can still protect their Sect and Family after death, right?"

Midnight Gao Sou frowned: "But Ye Chun has already released his True Intent and stirred up Cangjing Peak, so it should have been consumed, right?"

Star Fiend Daoist sneered: "Do you dare to gamble?"

Midnight Gao Sou thought about it, and he really didn't dare to gamble.

At this moment, he had a deeper understanding of the strong in the Xuanhuan World. Even if a strong person died, their residual power could deter all directions for thousands of years, with no one daring to offend.

But... "Are we just going to let Ye Chun go like this? Just because we're afraid of that Spear Intent, which might have long disappeared, do all of us have to stand by?"

The more Midnight Gao Sou thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved.

He had also heard stories of Prodigies from some natives in the game. It was said that the Prodigies from those major forces were one more arrogant than the last, yet no one dared to provoke them. Some even had their entire Family killed but still had to be grateful for having their own lives spared.

Originally, he found it incredible, but now he understood.

These were truly people you couldn't afford to provoke. Who knew if they had a strong person's trump card in their hands?

Star Fiend Daoist pondered for a moment before saying: "That Spear Intent was originally the last wisp. Even if Ye Chun still hid some, with his current strength, it's impossible to preserve it for too long. Just drag it out for a while.

"There's no need for you to stubbornly confront him in Mingshui Heaven. For evil Cultivators, Mortals and Cultivators are the best resources. Mingshui Heaven isn't really suitable for you.

"Withdraw from Mingshui Heaven, don't waste your time here. Directly sweep across the entire Great Jiang Dynasty. When you Breakthrough to Golden Core, what will this Ye Chun amount to? Even this Heshui Prefecture will be nothing."

Seeing that Midnight Gao Sou was still a bit hesitant, Star Fiend Daoist continued:

"A Nascent Soul Inheritance appeared in Mingshui Heaven. Normally, the Great Jiang Imperial Family would surely be tempted. Not to mention the Empress herself, those Immortal Foundation strong individuals would definitely come to contend for it.

"But look, has even a single Imperial Family member come? Those city lords around even have to offer blood sacrifices to gain entry. What does this indicate?

"It indicates that the Great Jiang Dynasty is truly about to collapse.

"This is precisely your good opportunity to sweep across the entire Imperial Dynasty and establish an evil Cultivator's paradise!"
