Double penetration: This Three Kingdoms has dragon energy

Chapter 140 The Terrifying Legacy of the Supreme Daoist!

After listening to Yu Ji's account, Ji Qiu remained silent for quite some time.

This is quite a vast worldview.

It has continued from the beginning of time to this day.

These legendary figures, the Three Venerables and Two Saints, actually existed in reality.

Moreover, they were being looked down upon from the Heavenly Court above Kyushu.

This gave him the feeling of being in a myth.

This background information also answered many of his long-standing questions.

For example, the strange changes that occurred in Dian Wei when Jian Shuo was captured.

According to the background information provided by Yu Ji.

It was clear that Jian Shuo activated the demon bloodline within him, while Dian Wei activated the witch bloodline, which could restrain this demon race.

Thus, Dian Wei not only easily killed Jian Shuo, but also gained great benefits.

And where do the genes altered by cultivation techniques come from?

There are essentially three groups: the demon race, the witch race, and the innate deities.

It has to be said that the human bloodline is truly powerful.

It didn't collapse even after fusing so many powerful bloodline genes.

From this perspective, he truly deserves to be called the protagonist of heaven and earth!

And why does this world possess such a magical dragon energy system?

And why does this dragon energy system only exist among humans?

It turns out that it was established by primordial deities such as the Three Venerables and Two Saints.

In order to harvest the human race's fortune more smoothly, they merged the human race's fortune with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, thus establishing this unprecedented dragon energy system.

Even the best swimmers can drown.

The three Venerables and two Saints clearly underestimated the potential of the human race.

They believed they could use this dragon energy system to control the human race for a long time.

Unexpectedly, the sages of the human race throughout history used this system to develop countless powerful secret techniques.

This secret civilization finally reached its peak during the reign of the First Emperor, who gathered the dragon energy of the nine provinces and built the Nine Provinces Barrier, keeping the Heavenly Court outside the nine provinces!

Just thinking about it makes my blood boil!

He truly deserves to be called the First Emperor of Qin.

Sure enough, he was not disappointed.

This is the Qin Shi Huang he envisioned!
However, this historical background information did not resolve all of Ji Qiu's doubts.

Of all the unsolved mysteries, the biggest one is the relationship between the modern aristocratic families and the world of Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms.
Because these two worlds are exactly the same.

All kinds of supplies can be used smoothly and universally.

Even the human races in both worlds are the same.

This can be seen from the fact that Ji Qiu was able to possess dragon energy in his body after arriving in the world of Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms.

However, if we say that the human race in the world of Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms possesses genes from the demon race, the witch race, and the innate gods, then...

So where do the genes of the three races in the bodies of modern humans, who are the same as the human race in the world of Dragon Kingdom, come from?
Surely there aren't two races, the Lich and the Demon, and three Venerables and two Saints in the modern world?
Ji Qiu felt this must be a big secret.

If he can uncover this secret, he might be able to unravel the origins of the time portal and personal space within him.

However, it is clear that this secret cannot be solved at present.

So we have to put it aside for now.

"Since you say that many powerful families are supported by the Heavenly Court, led by the Three Venerables and Two Saints, what about Zhang Jiao?"
What was the background of this first leader of the Taiping Dao, who directly shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty?

Logically speaking, he should also be the representative chosen by the Three Venerables and Two Saints, so why did you attack him and try to seize the Taiping Essentials from him? Ji Qiu continued to ask.

Yu Ji said, "Zhang Jiao was indeed initially chosen as the agent by Huang Tian Dao Zun, one of the Three Venerables and Two Saints. The Taiping Essentials in his possession were taught to him by Huang Tian Dao Zun."

But later he betrayed the Heavenly Court and the Yellow Heavenly Daoist, refusing to carry out their orders.

The Heavenly Court and the Yellow Heavenly Daoist Venerable naturally would not spare him any longer, and immediately unleashed heavenly punishment, while also ordering me to retrieve the Taiping Essentials from his possession.

"Zhang Jiao betrayed the Heavenly Court? How could someone chosen by the Heavenly Court betray it?" Ji Qiu asked in surprise.

Yu Ji, however, said without any surprise, "Of course you can, and such things are actually quite common."

Because when the Heavenly Court selects its agents, it usually chooses outstanding talents from the human race.

If the Heavenly Court were to find an ordinary person with no luck to act as an agent, the investment required to get him to complete the mission would be far too great.

This is very inappropriate for the Heavenly Court.

These talented individuals are different; they already possess great fortune, and with the support of the Heavenly Court, they are able to rise to prominence even more.

However, since he is a talent of the human race, he must be favored by the human race's fortune, so how could he be controlled by the Heavenly Court for a long time?

There will always be a day when they realize the truth, and then they will rebel against the Heavenly Court.

Such figures are not uncommon in history, and they will be common in the future as well.

However, for the Heavenly Court, they did not need to control these talents for a long time. As long as they could control them for a period of time and let them complete the tasks of the Heavenly Court, that would be enough.

For example, with Zhang Jiao, once he completed the task of establishing the Way of Peace and shaking the foundation of the Han court, whether he broke away from control and betrayed the Heavenly Court afterward was actually irrelevant.

The Heavenly Court only sent me to retrieve the Essential Techniques of Peace and assassinate Zhang Jiao out of a sense of caution!

"I see. And who are you? Are you also a chosen human talent by the Heavenly Court?" Ji Qiu asked.

Yu Ji shook his head and said, "No, I am not a human genius, but a member of the Heavenly Court, and a disciple of the Supreme Daoist Venerable."

He was sent down to the mortal realm by his master to oversee the destruction of the Nine Provinces' barrier.

Because I am not human, I cannot obtain the dragon energy of humans, nor can I cultivate the secret techniques of dragon energy. I can only rely on the immortal techniques I have cultivated to fight against enemies.

The advantage is that one can be free from the limitations of the dragon energy system and directly possess powerful strength.

The downside is that it's difficult to leverage the advantages of the dragon energy system to rapidly increase strength through territorial expansion.

"So that's how it is. No wonder you were able to seize the Essential Techniques of Peace from Zhang Jiao before you founded the Jiangdong Way of Peace."

"And yet, after all these years of establishing the Jiangdong Taiping Dao, your strength hasn't changed much." Ji Qiu said calmly.

……

After interrogating Ji, Ji Qiu released him and let him leave.

After all, Yu Ji has already been implanted with the dragon seed, so he is now considered one of their own, and there is no need to kill him.

By not killing Yu Ji, not only can we gain a powerful individual fighter, but we can also take over the Taiping Dao in Jiangdong, and even plant a seed in the Daoist sect and the Heavenly Court. It can be said that we can achieve multiple benefits in one fell swoop!
Of course, even if we don't kill them, we will still get all the benefits we deserve!
The main benefits gained from Yu Ji are as follows.

Firstly, the Taiping Yaoshu (Essential Techniques for Peace) Volume for People.

The Taiping Essentials are divided into three volumes: Heaven, Earth, and Man. However, when Zhang Jiao intended to pass them on to Zhang Ning, Yu Ji snatched away the Earth and Man volumes.

However, Yu Ji said that when he retrieved the two volumes of Taiping Yaoshu (Essential Techniques for Peace) and went to Jiangdong, he was ambushed by Sun Jian, the "Tiger of Jiangdong," and the Taiping Yaoshu Earth Volume was stolen by Sun Jian.

Therefore, all that remains in Yu Ji's possession now is the "Taiping Yaoshu" (Essential Techniques for Peace) scroll.

However, even just the Taiping Essentials (Human Volume) is incredibly powerful.

Because the "Tianping Yaoshu" scroll records the secret techniques of healing with talismanic water and the secret techniques of the Yellow Turban Warriors!
Leaving aside the Yellow Turban Warriors' secret techniques, which Ji Qiu had already obtained earlier.

But this secret technique of using talisman water to cure diseases is extraordinary.

Because this secret technique does not require any resources, all of Ji Qiu's followers can practice it!

In the final days of a dynasty, refugees were everywhere and diseases were rampant. One can imagine how effective the secret technique of healing with talismanic water, which had almost no cost, could be.

Zhang Jiao has already set a good example.

He almost single-handedly shook the very foundation of the Han Dynasty!

He was undoubtedly a protagonist of an era blessed with good fortune, but without this Taiping Technique, he probably wouldn't have been able to accomplish such a great feat in just over a decade.

It can only be said that the Taiping Essentials are indeed a powerful legacy created by Huangtian Daozun through painstaking research, specifically designed to shake the foundation of the Han Dynasty. It is truly remarkable!

It's no wonder that after discovering Zhang Jiao had lost control, Huang Tian Dao Zun immediately sent Yu Ji to assassinate him and retrieve the Taiping Yaoshu.

It is because it deeply understands the power of the Taiping Essentials!

However, the core of this Taiping Essentials lies in the Fanaticism Secret Technique within the Heavenly Scroll.

The core of fanaticism is the selected ideological system within it.

The Taiping Yaoshu contains a very complete ideological system, which is the same ideological system used by Zhang Jiao.

This was also painstakingly researched by Huang Tian Daozun and specifically placed in the Taiping Essentials to help Huang Tian Daozun recruit believers and destroy the barrier of the Nine Provinces.

Huang Tian Daozun originally thought that whoever obtained the Taiping Yaoshu Heavenly Scroll would inevitably use this system of thought.

All of this is essentially working for them in disguise.

But to everyone's surprise, the Taiping Essentials Heavenly Scroll ended up in Ji Qiu's hands.

Ji Qiu comes from the modern era and possesses a more powerful and comprehensive ideological system.

They directly abandoned the ideological system of the Taiping Yaoshu.

This is why Huang Tian Daozun was extremely angry and ordered Yu Ji to eliminate Ji Qiu.

Let's return to the secret technique of using talisman water to cure diseases.

After acquiring this secret technique, Ji Qiu's influence among his followers increased dramatically.

Ji Qiu was finally able to release them to expand their faith.

With their secret technique of healing with talismanic water, they are like miniature great teachers. Combined with the extremely complete and powerful ideological system that Ji Qiu brought from the modern world, it is hard to imagine how much of a storm they can stir up!

Secondly, there is the lineage of the Supreme Daoist Master in Yu Ji's possession.

The inheritance of the Three Venerables and Two Saints is a completely different immortal art system from the Dragon Qi Secret Art system.

Cultivating and using immortal techniques does not require consuming dragon energy, but rather faith.

And faith, naturally, comes from believers.

If someone else were to inherit this legacy, it might not be of much use.

Because they have no faith.

Even Zhang Jiao of the past and Yu Ji of today do not possess their own faith. This is because both Zhang Jiao's Way of Peace and Yu Ji's Way of Peace in Jiangdong use the ideology of Huang Tian Dao Zun.

The believers recruited using this ideology are actually followers of Huangtian Daozun, and their faith is dedicated to Huangtian Daozun.

Of course, Yu Ji did not have his own faith, but he had the faith bestowed upon him by the Supreme Daoist Master and the Yellow Heaven Daoist Master.

In essence, the belief system is somewhat similar to the dragon energy system.

Those who reach the pinnacle of faith harvesting can bestow the faith within them upon others.

Ji Qiu strongly suspects that the Three Venerables and Two Saints might have established the Dragon Qi System by imitating a belief system!

However, since Ji Qiu cultivates believers based on his own ideology, the faith that these believers uphold naturally belongs to him.

Therefore, he had already accumulated a great deal of faith within him.

It's just that there were no methods used in the past, so having faith alone is useless.

But now that he has received the inheritance of the Supreme Daoist Master, he finally has a place to use his skills.

This lineage of the Supreme Daoist Master can be further divided into two parts.

First, there is the Nine Revolutions Mystic Technique.

It is said that this is a powerful method practiced by Pangu, the god who created the world.

It is divided into nine levels, and each level is further divided into nine smaller realms.

Each minor realm will increase the four main attributes by 10%.

Each major realm will increase your four main attributes by 20% and grant you a new talent!
The increase in this attribute is quite dramatic.

Let's calculate:
First, the attributes of the minor realm are improved.

Each level has 9 minor realms, for a total of 9 levels. The total number of minor realms is:
9 × 9 = 81

Each minor realm increases by 10%, for a total increase of:
(1 + 10%)^81 - 1 ≈ 297847.8% (compound interest calculation)
Great Realm Attribute Enhancement

Nine major realms, each increasing by 20%, for a total increase of:
(1 + 20%)^9 - 1 ≈ 415.98% (compound interest calculation)
Final overall improvement

Total multiplier = Minor realm multiplier × Major realm multiplier
which is:
(1.1^81)×(1.2^9)≈298863.8倍

Overall attribute increase:
298863.8 - 1 = 29886280% (approximately 29886 times)
in conclusion:

Upon reaching the highest level of cultivation, the four-dimensional attributes increase by approximately 29886 times (actually the result of compound interest accumulation).

Taking strength as an example, assuming the base strength is 100 kilograms, the final strength can reach 2988600 kilograms!

But how could Ji Qiu's strength be 100 kilograms?
His strength now exceeds 500 kilograms!
And his fundamental strength will become even stronger in the future.

Because he will go and cultivate other body-related secret techniques!
Don't forget, this Nine Revolutions Profound Technique also grants the ability to acquire a talent at each major realm.

This means that he can finally cultivate those dragon energy secret techniques that he couldn't cultivate before because he lacked the talent for cultivation!
The Overlord's Secret Technique, which he had been longing for, finally had a chance to be cultivated!
Second, the Taiqing Thunder Technique.

This is a spell to summon lightning, which seems to overlap somewhat with the lightning summoning spell in the Heavenly Scroll of the Essentials of Peace.

But the reality is quite different.

The Thunder-Summoning Secret Technique in the Taiping Secret Arts Scroll can only summon ordinary lightning.

As the level of the secret technique increases, the number of lightning bolts summoned will increase, but the power of each lightning bolt remains constant.

Therefore, Ji Qiu believes that among low-level secret arts, the Lightning Summoning Technique is the most powerful single-target secret art.

But at the intermediate level, it becomes quite ordinary.

At higher levels, it even becomes somewhat inadequate.

However, this Taiqing Thunder Technique can enhance the power of a single bolt of lightning.

From the initial ordinary lightning, to the divine lightning of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind, to the two pure divine lightning of the yin and yang, and then to the divine lightning of the purple sky, the divine lightning of the world-destroying, and the divine lightning of chaos!
Each time you upgrade the Thunder level, its power will increase several times over!
Most importantly, the Taiping Thunder Technique can be used simultaneously with the Thunder Summoning Secret Technique!
The thought that he might one day summon dozens of chaotic divine lightning bolts and instantly turn a world into nothingness shocked even Ji Qiu with his own power.

Of course, this refers to the future, which even Ji Qiu doesn't know how far into the future it is.

For now, let's focus on practicing our skills diligently!

Thirdly, there is the powerful military secret technique, the Corpse Demon.

Despite the fact that Zhang Lu's army of corpse demons was easily defeated by Ji Qiu, the actual combat strength of the corpse demon troops is quite strong.

It's just that their attributes and the terrain they were in at the time happened to be countered by the artillery.

But none of this matters.

Because Ji Qiu did not intend to train the Corpse Demon Army.

In his view, this Corpse Demon Secret Technique was truly somewhat anti-human.

Although almost all secret techniques aim to activate alien genes within humans, they are at least primarily based on humans.

However, this Corpse Demon Secret Technique is clearly putting the cart before the horse, as it allows the demonic genes within the human body to take over.

It is unknown why the Three Venerables and Two Saints would research such a secret technique.

After all, their purpose in invading Kyushu was to continue enslaving the human race and make them obediently become their lucky meat buns, rather than directly annihilating the human race!
……

Two days later, in the council hall of the Taishan Prefecture Governor's Office.

A secret high-level meeting of the Ji Qiu faction was held.

Only five people attended the meeting: Ji Qiu, Zhuge Gui, Xi Zhong, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia.

Ji Qiu first informed them of the information he had obtained from Yu Ji.

Then he said, "That's the situation. According to Yu Ji, Kyushu is currently in a precarious and dangerous state!"
The barrier of the Nine Provinces established by the First Emperor has weakened to the extreme. If nothing unexpected happens, it will completely shatter in a dozen years at most!

Outside of the Nine Provinces, the land has already been divided up by the Heavenly Court, the Demon Clan, and the Witch Clan.

They were all hostile to the human race, regarding them as their mortal enemies, and wanted to exterminate the human race and reclaim the core of the world, the Nine Provinces.

As for the rest of the Nine Provinces, everyone knows the situation perfectly well: the imperial court has lost all its authority and is completely unable to suppress the powerful clans in various regions.

An era of feudal fragmentation, much like the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, is about to begin.

It's unknown how long this era will last.

However, each day that continues will greatly deplete the already limited strength of the human race.

So what should we do now? Let's all share our thoughts!

The four attendees remained silent for a long time, clearly deeply shocked by the message Ji Qiu conveyed.

They were speechless for a moment.

After a long silence, Zhuge Gui spoke first: "I never imagined that such a huge secret was hidden behind the power struggle between the aristocratic families and the imperial court."

However, one must eat one bite at a time and do one thing at a time.

Although Kyushu faces a huge threat, internal stability must come before external defense.

In my opinion, we should unify the Nine Provinces as soon as possible, and then combine their strength to fight against the Heavenly Court and the Lich and Demon races!

"I disagree with this strategy. The premise of 'pacifying the country before resisting external aggression' is that the gap between us and the foreign enemy cannot be too large, and we have enough time to pacify the country."

However, the current situation is that we are simply unable to achieve internal stability in the short term.

With so many powerful clans within the Nine Provinces, how long would it take to wipe them all out?

Most importantly, these powerful clans are themselves an important part of the human race's strength.

The Nine Provinces Barrier was able to continue operating for more than a decade because of their existence.

If these powerful clans are quickly eliminated, it will significantly weaken the overall strength of the human race in the Nine Provinces in a short period of time.

This caused the Kyushu Barrier to weaken rapidly.

Such a barrier across the Nine Provinces might not even last more than a decade, but it collapsed in just a few years.

This would mean that before we could even eliminate the powerful clans, the Heavenly Court and the Lich Clan would already be attacking us.

"At that time, we will face attacks from both inside and outside. It will be hard to say who will eliminate whom!" Xi Zhong said.

Guo Jia said, "I support Zhi Cai's suggestion. In fact, even if we can quickly wipe out the powerful clans, I do not recommend taking action against them now."

Because we do not have enough strength to deal with the attacks from the Heavenly Court and the Lich Clan.

According to Yu Ji, the Nine Provinces have always been under the surveillance of the Heavenly Court.

If the Nine Provinces were in a state of division, and the human race were gradually losing strength, the Heavenly Court and the Witch and Demon races, in order to preserve their own strength to the greatest extent, might not take swift action against the Nine Provinces.

They might even start fighting over the spoils, each thinking the victor would get all the loot!

But if we quickly eliminate the powerful clans and unify the Nine Provinces, allowing the fortunes of the Nine Provinces to rise steadily.

That would force them to join forces and defeat the Kyushu human race first!

The saying "in times of crisis, protect each other; in times of peace, compete for profit" illustrates this principle.

Therefore, before we possess the ability to directly confront the Heavenly Court and the Lich Clan, I do not recommend wiping out the powerful clans and unifying the Nine Provinces!

“Indeed, I agree with Fengxiao’s opinion. We should not only refrain from unifying the world quickly, but also slow down the process as much as possible.”

Only in this way can we deceive the Heavenly Court and the Witch and Demon races, preventing them from rushing to attack the human race of the Nine Provinces.

Instead of trying to weaken the power of the feudal lords, we should indirectly strengthen them.

Only in this way can we enhance the overall strength of the human race in the Nine Provinces and allow the Nine Provinces Barrier to be maintained for a longer period of time! Jia Xu said.

After listening to everyone's suggestions, Ji Qiu couldn't help but chuckle to himself, "Three to one, and the opinions of his three top strategists are unanimous."

Great minds think alike! I am also one of the heroes of this era!

Indeed, Ji Qiu shared the same thoughts as the three strategists.

With powerful enemies outside, this is not the time for internal strife.

Modern history has taught him that if he were to adopt a strategy of "pacifying the country before resisting foreign aggression" at this time, he might be driven out of the mainland!
Of course, not engaging in large-scale internal strife does not mean that they will not expand outwards.

It's just a matter of finding the right balance and paying attention to the methods and approaches for expansion.

After all, Ji Qiu still needs to develop.

Ultimately, he still needs to focus on his own development.

Because he firmly believed that only the human race of the Nine Provinces, represented by him, truly had the hope of resisting and defeating the Heavenly Court and the Witch and Demon races!
Compared to him, all other forces are worthless and insignificant!
So he looked up and said decisively, "Alright, then from now on we will implement a strategy of consolidating our foundation, keeping a low profile, and developing in a low-key manner."

"I hope that one day we can truly carry on the legacy of our human ancestors, crush the Heavenly Court and the Witch and Demon races, and make the human race of the Nine Provinces the true protagonist of the world!"

"Yes!" everyone said.
