Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

It wasn't surprising that Zhao Shuang survived the holy monk's monastery, but what was shocking was that the Heavenly Realm's long-planned scheme had completely failed, allowing Zhao Shuang to still emerge alive, carrying the holy monk's token.

Therefore, the cultivators of the Kunlun Realm were the happiest.

Therefore, waiting for him outside the training ground were not only people from other worlds, but also a group of cultivators from the Kunlun Realm. It should be noted that because the Empress had slain five gods, the Kunlun Realm had received a considerable number of slots.

Therefore, there were over two hundred Kunlun Realm cultivators waiting for him outside the dojo. They were all elites among elites of the Kunlun Realm, each considered a junior of Zhao Shuang, especially the Nine Heavens Mystic Maidens, who were Zhao Shuang's disciples. Of course, their relationship with Zhao Shuang was also extraordinary.

They were naturally among the first to arrive.

"You arrived quite quickly, thankfully you didn't go in, otherwise, with your numbers, you would have been wiped out long ago. But you also arrived quickly enough, it seems news of my arrival has already spread far and wide. In that case, I'll give you what you want, but I hope the Empress can come and collect it herself, otherwise it's really unsafe for you to keep it. This is no ordinary item; it's the key to negotiations between the Kunlun Realm and the entire Heavenly Court Realm. Only with this item can the Empress negotiate with the gods of the Heavenly Court Realm. Without this item, any negotiation is pure fantasy. In this way, once the protective barrier set up by that holy monk disappears, even if the entire Kunlun Realm doesn't become a battlefield for the Holy War of Merit, its fate won't be good."

"So it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but that you don't have the strength to take it. What you lack is strength, so you must work hard here. If you don't work hard, then the fate of the Kunlun Realm won't be good either. Even if you can survive this crisis, you won't be able to survive the next one, or the one after that. I hope you can understand this. I know I've said this many times, and I know I'm being long-winded, but I have no choice. I hope you can understand. Therefore, you shouldn't be waiting for me here. Instead, you should first notify the Empress to come here to find me. Only when the Empress comes can I give this thing to the Kunlun Realm, to her. Only in this way can the Kunlun Realm have a glimmer of hope. As for whether you can grasp it, that depends on your efforts."

Zhao Shuang's words made the Kunlun Realm cultivators present feel somewhat distressed. Although they had heard the same words countless times, they still felt incredibly sad, but there was nothing they could do about it.

“We understand, but do you know how many gods from different worlds went to the Kunlun Realm this time and took away those saints, saint kings, and even great saints who had cultivated the Great Dao Divine Power?”

This was what Nalan Danqing asked Zhao Shuang, and Zhao Shuang shook his head and said with a smile, "What difference does it make if they take them away? What harm can they do to us? The more they take, the better. Only in this way can the Kunlun Realm have hope of growing with their help. Otherwise, do you think I would impart so many Great Dao Divine Powers? I've been working towards this day, to let them take away these cultivators who practice Great Dao Divine Powers, and then use the resources of their world to grow, break through, and become gods and Great Saints. Only in this way can the future of the Kunlun Realm have some hope. Only by using the power of all the worlds in the Heavenly Realm can the Kunlun Realm rekindle its hope. Although they also have other purposes and want to learn these Great Dao Divine Powers, this is perfectly normal. And haven't I told you the same thing many times? This is also part of my plan, so you don't need to worry too much."

Zhao Shuang's reply wasn't a telepathic message; it was spoken openly and honestly, making it clearly audible to the cultivators from the other worlds who were observing. Their expressions varied: some were excited, some surprised, some ugly, some astonished—a whole range of emotions. They hadn't expected that the reason their world had recruited those saints, saint kings, and great saints from the Kunlun Realm was actually Zhao Shuang's deliberate act. Of course, this was a tacit understanding among them, but now that Zhao Shuang had openly and honestly stated it, it made these cultivators somewhat embarrassed.

However, no matter how embarrassed they felt, there was nothing they could do. This was the action of the gods of their world, not their own. Moreover, they too were capable of cultivating those Great Dao Divine Powers, and some had already done so. Those capable of cultivation were invariably the elite of their respective worlds; otherwise, they wouldn't have come to this Realm of Truth to cultivate. It was precisely for this reason that they felt conflicted. Some wanted to return and persuade the gods to send the saints, saint kings, and even great saints of the Kunlun Realm back as soon as possible, since they had already cultivated the Great Dao Divine Powers and were no longer of any use.

These cultivators didn't understand that this was a tacit understanding between Zhao Shuang and the gods. If they sent the Kunlun Realm cultivators back or simply killed them, they would undoubtedly offend Zhao Shuang terribly. In this situation, once Zhao Shuang recovered his full strength, he would go to that world to "help" them "repair" the entire world and "manage" its order. This was something Zhao Shuang had done before, and not just once or twice, but many times. Countless worlds had completely collapsed during this repair and restoration process; after all, most worlds were ordinary worlds, not immortal ones. The entire Heavenly Court Realm only had a dozen or so, and under such circumstances, very few could withstand Zhao Shuang's "disassembly and repair."

Therefore, with a tacit understanding between them, they naturally dared not do so, dared not send those saints, saint kings, and great saints back to their original places. They didn't have the guts, nor did they dare to take such a great risk to offend Zhao Shuang. Zhao Shuang was someone they absolutely couldn't afford to offend, or rather, those who could afford to offend Zhao Shuang wouldn't choose this path. Without exception, the gods who wanted to cultivate the Great Dao Divine Powers were all relatively weak gods. In this situation, they had no choice but to use their resources to cultivate the cultivators of the Kunlun Realm. Otherwise, the consequences they would have to bear were simply beyond their capacity. If they wanted to become stronger, they either had to comprehend and obtain the profound mysteries, or cultivate the Great Dao Divine Powers taught by Zhao Shuang. These were the only two paths. As for cultivating divine power, it was somewhat easier for ordinary gods, but most normal gods wouldn't choose that path. Only by obtaining and possessing profound mysteries, and using them to unleash divine techniques, can one unleash even greater power, such as supernatural abilities. However, Great Dao supernatural abilities can acquire power exceeding a portion of profound mysteries without relying on their strength. This is why Zhao Shuang was able to become a Celestial Venerable and a being of the heavens in the past. Of course, this exceeding the profound mysteries doesn't refer to all of them, but only to less than one-tenth. If it exceeds one-tenth, they can only be compared; if it exceeds thirty percent, it becomes somewhat difficult; and if it exceeds fifty percent, it becomes virtually impossible to contend with, requiring powerful Great Dao supernatural abilities to counter it.

"Then tell the Queen to come and collect it quickly, as time is running out. As for the others, if there's nothing else, leave now. What I just said is indeed the truth. If you don't believe me, you can ask the gods of your world if what I said is true. If you want the cultivators of Kunlun Realm to return to Kunlun Realm quickly, I advise you to give up that idea. If you really do that, all the great Dao supernatural powers you've cultivated will be completely lost. Otherwise, why do you think I'm doing this? I've been waiting for this day. So now you should just obediently cultivate in this Realm of Truth. As for other matters, they're not of much concern to you, so don't worry about them."

After saying this, Zhao Shuang set off back to the Moon Goddess's dojo. What would happen at the Holy Monk's dojo was none of his concern. However, he believed that the Kunlun Realm would take good care of everything there.

Indeed, after Zhao Shuang left, Nalan Danqing led the others into the Daoist temple and began to manage everything. Of course, he didn't forget to inform the Empress, asking her to personally go to the Moon Goddess to retrieve the holy monk's token that Zhao Shuang had obtained. Only that one thing could give the Kunlun Realm a glimmer of hope.

Meanwhile, as soon as Zhao Shuang returned to the Moon Goddess Dojo, someone told him that a distinguished guest was waiting for him, and this guest's purpose was to take someone away from his Moon Goddess Dojo. He recognized this guest—the Hundred Flower Fairy, the Ancient Illuminating Lotus. This was a small flower from the Ancient World; if she could successfully unseal and control the power within her, she would surely become a Celestial Venerable in the future, or at least a member of the Heavens, which was enough to prove how immense her strength and potential were. But for Zhao Shuang, this was the flower he had originally wanted to pluck.

Unfortunately, it hadn't yet taken human form back then; instead, it possessed immense power that was uncontrollable. Therefore, he gradually collected the little flower and entrusted it to the Flower Goddess. Now, it seems the Flower Goddess has nurtured it beautifully, transforming it into an unparalleled beauty, one of the most beautiful women in the entire Heavenly Realm. Her purpose here is to take away a senior sister who once treated her like a younger sister.

"If you want to take your senior sister away, that's perfectly fine. After all, her consciousness hasn't been destroyed yet. So, if you want to take her away, just let her heal properly, and I believe she'll recover quickly. However, let me make this clear: because I released all these women this time, and some of them have already been taken away by their relatives and friends, there's one thing you need to understand: they will be targeted for assassination by the Heavenly Realm and those major powers. Of course, they won't assassinate them themselves, but rather send people or offer high prices to assassinate them. Therefore, after taking your senior sister away, you must send her to the Flower Goddess's side. Only in this way can her safety be guaranteed, but this will also make it difficult for her to grow stronger. So, my suggestion is to let her stay here. As long as I'm here, as long as I'm in the Realm of Truth, I believe none of those major assassin organizations will dare to lay a hand on her." "Yes, if anyone dares to lay a hand on her, I will definitely dismantle those assassin organizations. While I can't completely wipe them out, dismantling them all in the future is no problem. It's not difficult for me, as I've done this many times before, and I've destroyed many assassin organizations. However, even if I destroy them, they can grow rapidly, so it's not a complete destruction. I can only severely weaken them, and then their gods will perish. But even if their gods perish, there will still be deities willing to become leaders of assassin organizations. Under these circumstances, completely annihilating them in this universe is impossible, since most of this universe is dark, without light; planets with light are very, very rare. So I hope you understand."

Looking at the Hundred Flower Fairy before him, whom he had also trained for some time, Zhao Shuang felt a mix of emotions, a touch of nostalgia. He had said so much earlier; otherwise, he wouldn't have said a single more word. It was precisely because of his instructions that the Hundred Flower Fairy had come; otherwise, he could have taken her senior sister away long ago. He wondered how her senior sister had been captured by those guys.

"Thank you for the reminder, Heavenly King, but I still decide to take my senior sister with me. Only in this way can I truly feel at ease and at peace. Otherwise, I would send her to the Flower Goddess's side, so that nothing would happen to her."

The Flower Fairy agreed.

"That's good. If that's how it is, then you can take her away. Anyway, it's no loss for me; I just saved her on a whim. What are your plans now? Will you continue cultivating or choose to let me help you break the seal from back then? If I help you break the seal, I'm confident that you can unseal all the power within your body in a very short time, at most a hundred years, and successfully control it. However, you need to stay by my side without leaving for a moment. Otherwise, if you can't control the power within your body, the consequences will be too great, too great for me to bear. I hope you understand."
