Ji Fu found himself growing more and more appreciative of Tang Luo. The Blood God had been operating in the Minor Spiritual Realm for who knows how long. Even calculating at the lowest level, if the incomparably vast underground space were packed full of Blood God’s children, there would still be hundreds of thousands.
Yet, Tan Luo alone, having only cultivated a Ninth Rank Immortal Battle Body and wielding a bronze hammer, managed to infiltrate the Minor Spiritual Realm and rescue two squads unscathed. Ji Fu reckoned that even he himself might not be able to do any better.
However, he had cultivated a Fifth Rank Undying Body, ignited his heart’s Divine Storage, and was a warrior. Even after dispersing his cultivation, he possessed tremendous strength. Not to mention ordinary Blood God’s children, even the Blood Dragon could easily be defeated.
Considering Tang Luo was able to accomplish such feats with only a Ninth Rank Undying Body, Ji Fu hypothesized that Tang Luo’s cultivation progress must far exceed that of the average person.
Because the stronger the power one possesses, the harder it is to temper. Therefore, even with his innate talent, to achieve mastery over the three forms of strength: Rush, Burst, and Propel, he knew he still had a long journey to tread in the path of cultivation.
Tang Luo could have already mastered the ninth type of power through prior cultivation before refining his body. How else could he have been undefeated while battling in the sea of blood with only a Ninth Rank Divine Ape Battle Body?
Under this misunderstanding, Ji Fu looked at Tang Luo as if he were a rare treasure. Because in a hundred years, he would likely become a Martial Arts Grandmaster of Third Tier, or even Second Tier Undying Body, having mastered all nine types of strength.
A powerhouse like him could easily determine the outcome of a minor battle. A Third Tier Undying Body rampaging on the battlefield is virtually unstoppable.
Tang Luo, observing Ji Fu’s effusive gaze, twitched the corner of his mouth but still agreed, “No problem. A hundred years from now, when the Han Family returns to Zhongzhou, wherever Ji needs help, I will appear on the front lines.
He had set the holy land as the target he wanted to surpass. However, Tang Luo was also fully aware, advancing the Tang Clan to reach the scale of the Holy Land in just a hundred years was undoubtedly a wild fantasy. Even a century would not be enough to cultivate such a profound base of powerful fighters, not to mention anything else.
But since he had set the goal to surpass the Holy Land, he needed to understand it. He didn’t know what sort of powerhouses the Tang Clan would have a hundred years from now. But taking the current growth rate into consideration, it was certain that he would become a King Realm individual, even capable of defending himself in battles among houses with saints.
If his life wasn’t in danger, was there any better way to scrutinize a holy land than fighting? So even if Ji Fu didn’t mention it, he would go to Zhongzhou to watch and see how strong this An Clan, which was ranked first among
humanity, was.
Ji Fu, seeing Tang Luo agree so easily, cast a doubtful glance at Xu Lao Ying, because he didn’t believe that the sly and selfish Tang Luo would agree to such terms so lightly.
However, Xu Lao Ying gave him a confirming look and explained, “Older brother, rest assured. My cousin is very reliable. He won’t let you down.”
Although Tang Luo and Ji Fu didn’t become sworn brothers, Xu Lao Ying secretly hoped that these two people, who he considered remarkable, could get along well. He wished that his extraordinarily talented cousin could help his older brother when the Han family returns.
Because of his awkward status as the Saint Child of Xu Clan, he wouldn’t be able to appear on the battlefield at that time. However, with his cousin participating in the battle, he felt as if he would be there in his stead.
Even if Ji Fu and Tang Luo still didn’t see eye to eye, as long as he could win the battle a hundred years later and support the Han family, Xu Lao Ying would be delighted!
Ji Fu, seeing Xu Lao Ying vouching for Tang Luo, decided not to fuss over it. He nodded, “Since you say so, I will entrust the controlling technique of the Minor Spiritual Realm to you.”
“The Boundary Breaking Stone will gradually recover under the illumination of the Realm Heart’s Divine Light. Once the Spirit Realm Gate stabilizes, you can use the technique to extract the Boundary Breaking Stone. I’ll also give you the technique of the Spirit Binding Array. Once the Boundary Breaking Stone has stabilized, you can use the technique to eradicate the spiritual soul of the Boundary Guardian.”
Tang Luo frowned upon hearing this, “Eradicate the spiritual soul of the Boundary Guardian? Will there be any changes in the Minor Spiritual Realm without the Boundary Guardian?”
“Don’t worry,” Ji Fu assured, “The spiritual soul of the Demon King had already merged with the Realm Heart, being undying and indestructible. However, it has been awakened by the Blood God and regained its cognition and memories. Once the spiritual soul of the Demon King is eliminated with the power of the Spirit Binding Array, the Realm Heart will be reborn. But the Boundary Guardian reborn will no longer have emotional memories and will only act according to the controlling technique. Only such a Minor Spiritual Realm could be considered a safe haven.”
Since he had promised to exchange the controlling technique of the Minor Spiritual Realm with the Tang Clan for Tang Luo’s participation in the battle, Ji Fu didn’t hide anything about this matter. The Boundary Guardian having the Demon King’s memories was not an issue for him. He simply had to wait a few months for the Spiritual Array to gather enough power. Then, in one fell swoop, the Demon King could be eliminated, and the Blood God could be suppressed easily.
Hearing Ji Fu’s explanation, Tang Luo nodded slightly and said, “That s good then. I wouldn’t have felt secure with a Demon King being the Boundary Guardian. Alright, since everything has been settled, please send craftsmen to the Minor Spiritual Realm to transport the supplies.”
Seeing the two finally reach agreement, Xu Lao Ying heaved a sigh of relief, “Finally done! See, isn’t it better like this? Getting along copacetically, we’re all brothers.”
Tang Luo wore a bright smile, obviously satisfied with the result of the negotiation.
Three million Divine Herbs every year plus the controlling technique of the Minor Spiritual Realm, countless precious materials in the palace, secret techniques, and spiritual armor and weapons. Also including ninety million Divine Herbs in Tang Luo’s Void Stomach, the Tang Clan profited immensely this time.
Even under normal circumstances, within a maximum of twenty years, the Tang Clan could trample over the Mi Clan with their sheer strength, becoming the true ruler of Xiling.

The Spirit Realm Gate gradually stabilized. Although it still could not accommodate beings from the Mortal Realm, fighters from the Mortal Realm could pass through one by one.
Because they had fought all the way from the palace, more than a hundred mechanic puppets were in a broken condition. To transport countless resources from the palace, human labor alone would not suffice. Thus, craftsmen needed to be dispatched first to repair the mechanic puppets.
Among the caravan that came with Ji Fu, there were many puppet craftsmen. Nine of the most skilled, equipped with copious amounts of puppet making materials, followed Tang Luo back into the Minor Spiritual Realm.
Tang Luo, of course, didn’t knowhow to repair puppets. His re-entry into the Minor Spiritual Realm had another purpose. Hence, once in the Minor Spiritual Realm, the craftsmen stayed back to fix the puppets while Tang Luo sped towards the palace.
This was a favor asked of him by Ji Fu, to make him stationed between the fourth and fifth levels of the palace to suppress the Blood God’s children, facilitating the transport of resources by the mechanic puppets.
Faced with such a request, Tang Luo gladly accepted.
Due to the hammer he left in the Minor Spiritual Realm earlier, this time he brought another Bo Lang Hammer. This long-handled giant hammer, forged from black iron and refined steel, weighed three thousand catties. The hammer’s head and handle had mechanisms installed within them. Once activated, the long-handled hammer could be used as a meteor hammer. When swung, the two thousand five hundred catty hammerhead could pulverize anything.
