[Ding! You are ahead of the billions of players from Blue Planet and have become the first person in this game to comprehend a Heavenly Dao-grade Intent. You have triggered a God-grade reward. The reward has been automatically sent to your game space. Please check it at your leisure.]
Just as he comprehended the “Immortal Spirit Intent,” the game prompt echoed in Ye Lin's ears.
“Not bad, not bad. Another God-grade reward.” After murmuring to himself in satisfaction, Ye Lin began to circulate his cultivation method, absorbing the massive amount of spiritual power stored in this secret realm.
The others behaved similarly. After comprehending their respective Intents, they all immersed themselves fully in cultivation.
A day flew by in the blink of an eye. To leave some crumbs for the others, Ye Lin did not go all out in refining the spiritual qi of heaven and earth here.
Once their ten-day cultivation access expired, the five of them were teleported out of the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm.
Because they had comprehended the momentum of heaven and earth, Qi Changqing, Lin Luoxian, and the other three were also close to breaking through to the Golden Core Stage.
However, with the qualification tournament for the various Yellow-grade Cultivation Academies imminent, everyone chose not to break through just yet.
“Congratulations on your gains. You now have half a day to prepare and say your goodbyes.”
“In half a day, you will board the flying vessel with us and head to the venue of this tournament.”
Just as they were teleported out of the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm, the Principal, Jiang Lingyuan, spoke to them with a smile.
Upon hearing this, all five politely cupped their hands in salute before departing via their respective teleportation formations.
Ye Lin actually did not have much to busy himself with. After all, he was a player who took the speedrun approach, so he did not harbor much special affection for the starting village of the Tianyuan Dynasty.
After all, at most, he had only been in the game for less than two months.
However, before leaving, he decided to leave the royal ancestor Nangong Tian, the royal elder Nangong Yin, and the Chu family ancestor Chu Xingyuan behind in the Tianyuan Dynasty.
After all, he was the true controller of the Tianyuan Dynasty, and any surplus tax revenue collected here had to be handed over to him every year. Naturally, he could not just abandon it.
Therefore, before leaving, he utilized the special effect of the [Undying Burial Ground], consuming spirit stones to raise the cultivation levels of the royal family's Golden Core Stage elders all the way to the Nascent Soul Stage Great Perfection.
As for Nangong Tian and Chu Xingyuan, he directly piled resources on them to boost their cultivation to the Soul Emergence Stage.
With this level of cultivation, even if he was not in the Tianyuan Dynasty in the future, Nangong Tian and the others would be able to handle various emergencies.
Of course, Ye Lin had not forgotten his promise to be the first to raise Ziqing's cultivation. Before upgrading Nangong Tian and the others, he had already raised Ziqing's cultivation to the Soul Emergence Stage Great Perfection.
In addition, he had Nangong Tian and the others cooperate with some high-level academy executives to apologize for the innocent deaths during the rookie trial and provide corresponding compensation.
Finally, he went to say goodbye to Lin Kuo and the others from the Demon Suppressing Division.
By this point, he had almost nothing left to miss in the Tianyuan Dynasty.
“While it's still early, I should replicate the rewards and other resources first.”
After finishing his tasks, Ye Lin returned to his cave dwelling in the Inner Academy.
Perhaps because he was about to leave, as he looked at the scenery before his cave dwelling, a wave of emotion unexpectedly surged within him.
“Young people are still too young, always getting emotional over their surroundings.”
Shaking his head with a smile, he entered the Desolate Ancient Dao Pagoda with a single thought.
Upon arriving at the Sovereign Heaven cultivation grounds and sitting down cross-legged, he immediately focused his gaze on the Luck Value column.
[Luck Value: 71,000 points
Rank: Tier 7 Son of Destiny
Description: One of the nine great destinies of the Heavenly Desolation Continent, and one of the individuals with the highest luck among the Chosen Ones. With great luck accompanying you, disasters disperse, and prosperity flourishes.]
Because he had slain Gu Qingcang's clone and obtained over two thousand points of luck, he had advanced another tier since his last luck upgrade.
Every time his luck level increased, he would receive a special reward. Including the previous three times, he had accumulated a total of four rewards.
“Now, let's see what good things I can get.”
Rubbing his hands together, he opened all the rewards without hesitation, which naturally included the God-grade reward from previously comprehending the Heavenly Dao-grade Intent.
[Ding! All rewards have been opened. You have obtained God-grade earth attribute control.
You have obtained four Luck Stabilization Cards. Once used, your luck cannot be plundered or stolen by others.]
“Another God-grade attribute control. Very nice.”
Seeing that he had obtained God-grade earth attribute control, Ye Lin was quite satisfied.
As for the Luck Stabilization Cards, in a sense, they were extremely scarce and special items.
To ordinary people, they were of little use because their luck was minimal, so whether it was stabilized or not did not matter.
But for someone possessing great luck, this was incredibly important.
After all, no one wanted to work hard to rise from humble beginnings only to have their achievements intercepted halfway or at the very end, ultimately benefiting someone else.
“I'll use one, and the others might fetch astronomical prices if the opportunity arises, or perhaps be exchanged for special treasures.”
Without hesitation, Ye Lin used one Luck Stabilization Card on himself and made plans for the other three.
Only then did he take out the storage ring that Qi Changqing had given him more than ten days ago.
Inside were all the cultivation methods, natural treasures, spiritual weapons, pills, and other replicable resources from the Blackwater Serpent Clan's treasury, which had been sold and converted into spirit stones.
Of course, the items from the fifty-fifty split after Qi Changqing triggered the rewards from the mysterious book were also inside.
Clatter!
The moment he opened the storage ring, a massive mountain of mid-grade spirit stones instantly piled up across a large area of the Sovereign Heaven cultivation grounds.
Scanning them through the game panel, there were over 3.3 billion mid-grade spirit stones laid out before him.
If converted into low-grade spirit stones, that would be over 33 billion.
“Incredible. They say alchemists make money fast, but how can refining pills compare to emptying an enemy's treasury?”
Seeing such a colossal amount of mid-grade spirit stones, Ye Lin could not help but laugh.
Without any hesitation, he immediately activated the [Random Replication] trait, beginning to replicate the 3.3 billion mid-grade spirit stones a thousandfold.
While he was overjoyed by the massive quantity of spirit stones, the Blackwater Serpent Clan was about to explode with rage.
All because Xuan Yun, one of their three great ancestors, had paid a visit to the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion—the most famous divination establishment on the Heavenly Desolation Continent—and nearly lost his life there.
The story went like this: Xuan Yun felt that since the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion claimed to be able to calculate all affairs under heaven, he did not hesitate to bring his heavy treasures there to request a divination, determined to find the enemy who had looted their Blackwater Serpent Clan's ancestral treasury.
No matter how one looked at it, this was a very common divination transaction. After all, people like Xuan Yun came to the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion in droves every day.
Thus, an elder of the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion accepted the commission. However, once the calculation began, things went terribly wrong; the elder was immediately struck by heavenly lightning and plagued by misfortune.
Fearing that their reputation would be ruined, the elder, in a fit of rage, requested a Supreme Elder to perform the calculation.
But the moment the Supreme Elder took action, he was directly struck half to death by heavenly lightning.
By this point, everyone knew that this divination was far from simple. Yet, to maintain their institutional credibility, the people of the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion still invited one of their ancestors to step in.
Upon hearing about the matter, that ancestor felt everyone was making a mountain out of a molehill. He was not afraid of a mere luck backlash at all.
Then, the ancestor pinched his fingers to calculate—and exploded!
Following that, Xuan Yun was beaten to a pulp. Not only did he fail to find the culprit who had looted his clan's treasures, but he also had to hand over all the treasures he brought to the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion.
If not for the fact that he was an ancestor of one of the top one hundred clans among the myriad races, he probably would have lost his life there.
“Bullshit Heavenly Calculation Pavilion! ‘Calculating all affairs under heaven’? They can't calculate jack shit!” After leaving the Heavenly Calculation Pavilion, a black-and-blue Xuan Yun could only fly back home while cursing up a storm.
