The name of the Sage King who took over from Chen Tang to watch over the Star Fortune Heavenly Eye Mirror was Wei Guang. He was not young and was already more than 10,000 years old. He had a calm temperament and was usually serious.
It was rare for him to panic.
But now, he seemed to have seen something unbelievable and exclaimed as he called the other two over.
The hand pointing at the Star Fortune Heavenly Eye Mirror was even trembling.
The other two Sage Kings were called Wang Can and Xu Jiuchen. The two of them had worked with Wei Guang for many years and had never seen him so flustered.
“What’s going on? Did something happen in the Five Views Realm?”
“Could it be that the Sages we detected earlier have disappeared again?”
The two of them were puzzled and hurriedly came in front of Wei Guang to look at the Star Fortune Heavenly Eye Mirror.
Then, their gazes froze, and their expressions changed from confusion to shock. Their pupils trembled violently, as if they had seen a ghost.
“Could the mirror really be malfunctioning? Otherwise, how could this happen!”
“There must be something wrong. It’s impossible for such a situation to happen!”
Wang Can and Xu Jiuchen were filled with disbelief.
The information displayed on the Star Fortune Heavenly Eye Mirror was too bizarre. It was impossible for it to be true.
......
“139 Sages. In one day, 139 people broke through to the Sage realm in the Five Views Realm!” Wei Guang said with a trembling voice. The dignified Sage King was trembling as if he was having a seizure.
“Either something major has happened in the Five Views Realm, or this Star Fortune Heavenly Eye Mirror is really broken.” Xu Jiuchen forced himself to calm down and said in a low voice, “Senior Brother Wei, I’ll go after Senior Brother Chen and tell him about this.”
“Yes, yes, go after Junior Brother Chen and let him come back first.” Wei Guang came back to his senses slightly and nodded repeatedly. “Such a strange thing is definitely not ordinary. We can’t rashly go over to investigate.”
“But we can’t ignore this situation at all.” Wang Shen frowned and said, “Should we find a subordinate sect and send a Sage over to investigate? As long as we disguise ourselves well, we should be fine.”
“Yes, that’s indeed a solution.” Xu Jiuchen nodded and said, “It’s best to find a few more people and get them to scout the way for us and see what’s going on in the Five Views Realm.”
The galaxy that the Purple Sun Realm was situated in was extremely huge. There were thousands of sects and factions here. There was an extremely strict division of hierarchy between the different sects.
There were four Sage Kings in the Calamity Star Fortune Pavilion, and they had once produced a Creator. To this day, there are still Creator Divine Weapons and Creator’s Remnants left behind. They are one of the Immortal sects.
And the Immortal sects were the highest level sects.
Therefore, all the sects within their sphere of influence had to listen to their orders. Otherwise, there would be a calamity.
“Let’s do that.” Wei Guang nodded and said, “The situation in the Five Views Realm is too strange. We can’t easily step in. Let’s wait for those Sages to investigate before making plans.”
“That’s right.” Wang Shen and Xu Jiuchen agreed.
Then, Xu Jiuchen left in a hurry and chased after Chen Tang with his flying shuttle.
… .
More than a hundred Sages attained the Dao at the same time, and layers of phenomena enveloped Chongyang Star.
It directly increased the concentration of Heaven Earth Origin Qi on this planet by several levels. Even the nomological Dao runes became clearer, making this planet more suitable for cultivation.
After the 100-odd Sages completed their breakthrough and the multitude of Dao Validation phenomena dissipated, everything in the world emitted a dense aura of joy. It was as if everything on Chongyang Star was congratulating them on becoming Sages.
This was something they had never felt before. Their faces could not help but reveal incomparably surprised expressions.
Chongyang Star had a Star God.
The joy of all living beings in the world usually meant the joy of this Star God. Golden lotus flowers descended from the sky, followed by fine rain.
After coming into contact with these golden lotuses and the rain, the more than 100 Sages who had just broken through felt that their cultivation realms had been consolidated, as if they had broken through for a long time.
It was really a gift from the heavens.
At the same time, Shi Yao, who had witnessed the entire process in the restaurant, revealed a surprised expression.
She had the experience of attaining the Dao and becoming a Sage, and she had also watched her disciple consume the Myriad Techniques Return to One Pill. But she had never seen such a scene.
They actually made all the living beings in the world and even the Star God come to congratulate him.
Was this because more than a hundred Dao Validation phenomena had brought great benefits to Chongyang Star?
That was not right.
If more than a hundred Dao Validation phenomena appeared together, it would already be quite good if the laws on Chongyang Star did not fall into chaos.
“I’m afraid it’s still because of that decree.”
Shi Yao looked at Pei Qingshu on the platform and the decree in his hand. “What kind of existence is the Master he mentioned? A Sage King? No, even Sage Kings can’t do such an exaggerated thing…”
“What do you think after watching for so long?” At this moment, the young man beside her suddenly spoke again. He chuckled and said, “If you don’t mind, can you tell me about it?”
“Who exactly are you?” Shi Yao turned to look at the young man and frowned slightly. She felt that this person was unfathomable and she was very vigilant towards him.
“My surname is Cui. You can call me Mr. Cui.” The young man smiled. “You haven’t answered me. What do you think?”
“Mr. Cui?” Shi Yao pondered for a moment and realized that she didn’t seem to have any impression of an expert with the surname Cui. She couldn’t help but be even more vigilant, so she followed this person’s words and said, “I don’t really have much thoughts about this. I just feel that my thousands of years of bitter cultivation can’t compare to a pill. I just feel a little regretful.”
“That is only natural.” The young man nodded slightly and turned to leave. Before he left, he smiled and said, “The ancient books of the Myriad Saint Pavilion are of good quality. You can use them to repay your debts.”
“What?!” Shi Yao was stunned when she heard that. Just as she was about to ask, she realized that the young man had already disappeared. She muttered, “What powerful methods. I didn’t sense it at all.
“Wait, he said ancient books. Could it be that he’s the big shot behind the Nine Deaths Heavenly Sect, the Master Pei Qingshu mentioned?!”
“As expected, he’s unfathomable!”
… .
The large-scale Dao Validation phenomena had dissipated, and the over 100 new Saints had already left Chongyang Star.
The ancient planet returned to its former calm.
After Cui Heng left the restaurant, he did not return to the Li Family’s small courtyard. Instead, he came to the Nine Deaths Heavenly Sect. He stood there, but no one could see him.
Only when Pei Qingshu came over after sorting out the various ancient books, natural treasures, and divine weapons did he see him.
“Disciple greets Master.” Pei Qingshu bowed.
“Alright, follow me.” Cui Heng nodded slightly.
In the next moment, he brought Pei Qingshu to the sky. Through the clouds, he could see the arc of the planet. The tall mountains had become small mounds.
Pei Qingshu followed behind Cui Heng, feeling a little puzzled, not knowing what he was doing.
“How does it feel to personally witness more than a hundred Limitless Golden Immortals breaking through to the Sage realm?” Cui Heng chuckled.
“…” Pei Qingshu immediately fell silent. After a long while, he sighed and said, “To be honest, Master, I’m a little confused.”
“Speak.” Cui Heng nodded.
“I suddenly don’t understand the meaning of my cultivation.” Pei Qingshu smiled bitterly and said, “Master, you can casually create thousands of Sages and even Sage Kings.
Since an existence of a higher realm can easily help people of a lower realm break through, what’s the meaning of cultivation? What’s the meaning of insisting on walking this path?
On one hand, there’s the path of accumulation through experiencing countless hardships, and one might not be able to break through even after spending an unknown amount of time. On the other hand, as long as one asks someone at a higher realm to grant them strength, they can rise to the top without any obstacles…”
“Actually, as long as you’re willing, I can not only help you immediately become a Sage or a Sage King.” Cui Heng stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “I can also let you become a Creator, or an existence even stronger than a Creator.”
“…” Pei Qingshu fell silent again when he heard this. The expression on his face became extremely complicated. There were doubts, shock, and unwillingness. In the end, he took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Cui Heng. “Master, please guide me.”
“I once heard a saying. The gift of fate has already been secretly marked with a price.” Cui Heng slowly walked forward with his back facing Pei Qingshu.
“There’s actually no shortcut in cultivation. Only the power you cultivated belongs to you. If you break through with the help of my Dharmic powers, your strength will become an extension of my Dharmic powers. You will forever lose the possibility of walking your own path.
These people who have taken the Myriad Techniques Return to One Pill are already under my control. This does not merely refer to their life and death, but their thoughts and thinking patterns will also be controlled by my will.
“This is the price.”
All their thoughts and thinking patterns?!
Pei Qingshu was completely stunned and even felt a little creeped out. If even this was controlled by someone, could they still be considered as their original self?
At this moment, Cui Heng suddenly turned around, and his voice became gentle as he said with a smile, “Qingshu, actually, you can also be like Hui Shi. I can use my Dharmic powers to help you increase your cultivation, not directly help you break through.
This way, the influence on you will be relatively low, and your thoughts and will are not affected. However, you have to give up on the path of the Martial Dao True Body, and you will never be able to rely on your own cultivation to surpass me or even touch upon a minor realm lower than my cultivation level.
Think about it carefully. With your current cultivation progress, even if you wait until your lifespan is exhausted, you might not be able to reach a minor realm lower than mine. In other words, this price doesn’t actually exist.
Moreover, compared to the Martial Dao True Body that requires countless battles, countless lives, and the consumption of countless years to cultivate, this path can be said to be a smooth path without any difficulties.
Qingshu, as long as you nod your head, in the next moment, you will be an expert that surpasses even a Creator in strength. From then on, you will be the ruler of the myriad worlds and starry skies. How about that?”
“Master?!” Pei Qingshu’s eyes widened, and his face revealed an expression of disbelief. His entire body tensed up.
