A life of clearness

Chapter 265: Wealth of the Land of Wealth
Never heard of it? How is that possible?

"As far as I know, the power of the underworld should be distributed widely." Rong Qing recalled that she had visited the underworld with her spiritual consciousness once, and the plaque on the city gate was Xuanfeng Mansion! If what the monkey puppet said was true, then the power of the underworld was distributed in thirty-six spiritual realms.

"At least the Underworld in Xuanfeng Realm is just a branch of the Underworld..." she said slowly.

A force that can dominate dozens of spirit realms is definitely a large force. Even if it is not as powerful as the supreme realm, it is not the best in the world.

"I have no impression." He still shook his head. "If it is true as you said, and it is distributed in more than one spiritual world, I should not be completely unaware of such a force. In other words... it developed after I took up residence in the world's number one bow."

This is the only explanation. "However, being able to distribute thirty-six spirit realms is very impressive." Rong Qing sighed.

“Thirty-six spirit worlds, at most one great world…” Number One Under Heaven’s eyes flickered, “This is not just ordinary strength. It must have a very strong foundation.”

Rong Qing didn't understand, but the world's number one was born in a big family, and he had experienced several great times. He knew very well that in the ancient spiritual world, the power changes were very slow. Basically, the famous spiritual world forces were supported by the Zun world forces behind them. Unless the power of an individual reached the peak, it would be difficult to shake it.

If the Hades wanted to expand to this extent in just a few billion years, at least two things had to be done. First, the true master of the Hades was at least at the Daoist level. Second, the core technology or skills of the Hades had strong dissemination, necessity, and uniqueness.

"The foundation of life?" Rong Qing flipped her palm, and a snow-white mask appeared in her palm. "Master is referring to... this should be it?"

Number One Under Heaven's eyes fixed, and he took the mask directly from Rong Qing's hand and examined it carefully.

Rong Qing didn't take it seriously. Instead, she hoped that the number one in the world could figure out some other clues.

The snow-white mask looked cold, hard and eerie, but it actually felt completely different! The material was flexible and had temperature. It felt warm to the touch... and also had a pulse-like beating.

In addition, it can transmit cultivation and longevity, which is simply an incredible creation.

Cultivation is fine. Lifespan is something elusive, but it can be captured and transmitted. No wonder the underworld is developing so fast.

"This thing," Number One in the World stroked it slowly with his fingers, and pondered, "It should be a living thing."

"Living creature?!" Rong Qing repeated in a low voice. "Has it been transformed by Hades?"

"Of course there is." Number One Under Heaven answered Rong Qing's question without hesitation. "What do you think about this thing? Tell me about it?"

Rong Qing turned back and thought for a while. "Master, you just said it's a living thing, which helped me figure out a lot. It's a living thing, which means that the characteristics of this mask - passing on cultivation and lifespan - are the characteristics of this creature. The underworld has only mastered the ability to use and transform this creature. After all... it's easier to improve a living thing first than to turn a dead thing into a living thing."

Number One in the World showed admiration on his face, "You have a clear mind."

It is extremely difficult to turn a dead object into a living thing! Even the strongest bow in the world did not give birth to the spirit of the weapon. The strongest bow in the world was just a later incarnation of the weapon.

Therefore, since it has been confirmed that this mask is a living thing, the core of the Hades' practice has also been confirmed.

"The Underworld has been able to expand to this extent, and the master behind it is almost at the level of Dao Zun. With your current strength, it is impossible to shake it. But its other foundation..." Tianxia Diyi tapped the mask with his fingers, "We have now got some clues."

"Master, are you trying to figure out the secrets of the Hades' cultivation technique? But, that's unlikely..."

The time of a great world is not short. The Hades has expanded another thirty-six underworlds, squeezing the living space of countless original spiritual forces. It is impossible that no one has studied the underworld's skills, and it is impossible that only the world's number one person can see that this mask is alive.

But no one has thoroughly researched it... If it were so easy to figure out, the foundation of the underworld would have been shaken long ago. So Rong Qing thought it was unlikely.

"You just said you were clear-headed." Number One Under Heaven glanced at her and said, "Why are you wasting your energy?"

"The control of the Hades over this creature must have reached the pinnacle. It would be a waste of time and effort for us to study the core technology, and we may not be able to succeed. What I mean is that after you accept this mask as your master, study it carefully to see if there are any loopholes that can be exploited."

Rong Qing: ...

"Exploiting loopholes?"

"Yes." Number One Under Heaven asked back, "Why do you still dislike it?"

"No, no." Rong Qing shook her head repeatedly.

"What are the four most important words for a cultivator in this world?"

"Wealth, friends, Dharma and land." He answered impliedly.

"The first word is money." Number One Under Heaven raised his index finger. "You come to a strange spiritual world and fight alone. You don't even have much capital. How do you want to survive?"

"This." Rong Qing's expression became serious. "My practice of the prohibition is quite good."

"How good is good?" He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can a ban be comparable to the full force attack of a Spiritual Transformation?"

"Not really." She shook her head slowly.

Rong Qing realized the problem.

"Even if you have it, you have to consider the raw materials consumed to complete such a restriction, as well as the time, energy and spiritual power consumed. In the end, you can only earn 10,000 or 20,000 high-quality spiritual stones. With such a small amount of spiritual stones, you can't even hear a sound when you invest it in cultivating a shadow vein. Are you still going to practice?"

Number One in the World started to settle the accounts for Rong Qing.

"And you can't just sell it if you want to. Without connections and support, who would want to buy your restrictions? If you want to join a certain chamber of commerce, you will have even less freedom..."

“Girl, you’ve never started from scratch, have you?” Number One Under Heaven laughed.

Rong Qing answered honestly, "No." Then she said something that really deserved a beating, "Since I started practicing, I have never bowed to money."

The sword masters took good care of her. The Sword Sect had always given her resources and never asked for anything from her. Even if she had to collect spiritual veins herself in order to survive the first level of the Spiritual Transformation Tribulation, Rong Qing's strength at that time had already been calculated by the sword masters, so she could collect them.

Rong Qing has never encountered a truly desperate situation where no one can help her.

"Then how do those cultivators from the Mother Realm who have just arrived in the Spirit Realm make money?"

"Who said they got rich?" Number One Under Heaven sighed inexplicably, "The vast majority of people in this world can't get rich."
