Chapter 811 All Can Be Suppressed Under Transcendence
Su Jie's hand holding the teacup remained still, but his gaze rose: "I wonder what great undertaking Master is referring to?"
The Primordial Lord looked at him, not answering directly, but instead asking, "Are you aware of the War of the Gods?"
Su Jie's heart tightened slightly. Of course he knew.
Previously, when he played a matching game with Jiang Yue'er on that battlefield, the woman was completely submissive to him, answering any questions he asked.
She spoke at length about the distribution of various forces on the Primordial Continent, the causes and rules of the War of the Gods, and the territorial disputes between the three transcendent forces.
Those fragmented pieces of information, when put together, had long since transformed a country bumpkin from the initial universe into a Primordial Being who knew the situation on the Primordial Continent like the back of his hand.
But he didn't rush to reply, only nodding calmly: "This disciple has heard a little about it. The War of the Divine Realm between the three transcendent forces breaks out every now and then, and the participants are all Eternals from each family, resulting in countless deaths and injuries."
The Lord of the Primordial Era picked up his teacup and slowly took a sip, as if waiting for him to finish speaking.
Su Jie paused, his eyes narrowing slightly: "Which power is Master planning to launch a war in the Divine Realm against? Surely not the other eight Holy Temples?"
Upon hearing this, the Lord of the Primordial Beginning chuckled and shook his head as he put down his teacup: "Our nine great temples all belong to the Temple of Origin, how could we possibly kill each other?"
Although the Lord of the Temple of Origin rarely appears, the rules still apply.
The competition among the nine holy temples is limited to contests at the disciple level and negotiations over resource allocation. Anyone who resorts to violence will be severing their own foundation.
He paused, not continuing on the topic, and his gaze returned to Su Jie: "Do you have any plans for your subsequent cultivation?"
Su Jie did not answer immediately. He picked up his teacup and took another sip, showing that the Lord of the Beginning still wanted to explore the secrets of his cultivation.
His mind raced; he had discussed this issue with the system before coming here.
His cultivation speed is indeed far beyond the norm. Rather than trying to hide it, it's better to reveal some of his secrets.
He had already made his decision when he put down his teacup: "My initial idea is to go to some dangerous places and ruins."
The disciple accidentally obtained the inheritance of killing in the Chaos Sea, and his cultivation speed would increase significantly after each kill.
The more you kill, the faster you cultivate; that's probably why this disciple has progressed so much faster than others.
At this point, Su Jie lowered his tone and slowly said, "However, this method also has its drawbacks. If you kill too many people, your body and soul will not be able to bear it, and you will need many Daoist partners to help you cultivate."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of the Primordial Beginning paused for a moment on his face, as if weighing the information over and over again.
He nodded slightly: "You like killing? Those places are suitable for you. The chaotic ruins on the outskirts of the Primordial Continent, the remains of ancient battlefields, and even the depths of some unexplored secret realms, all have a large number of eternities lurking there, enough for you to kill."
He spoke calmly, but a faint smile flickered in the depths of his eyes, as if he had heard something reassuring.
What the Lord of the Primordial Beginning wanted was for Su Jie to become Eternal as soon as possible. At that time, in addition to him, the Ten-Wheel Eternal who could not easily make a move, the Primordial Beginning Temple would have another Nine-Wheel Eternal to guard it.
Looking at the entire Primordial Continent, the nine eternal realms combined number less than two hands' worth, making the Primordial Temple destined to become the top-tier power.
Even if Su Jie cultivates quickly and has a solid foundation, as long as he doesn't find and refine the Primordial Purple Qi, he will never be able to condense the fifth acquired wheel, and thus will never be able to cross the threshold of ten wheels.
The Primordial Purple Qi requires opportunity, luck, and the accumulation of countless years. How many epochs did it take him to accidentally encounter that wisp of it in the depths of the Chaos Sea beyond the realm?
No matter how extraordinary Su Jie is, it's impossible for him to find a treasure of that level in a short period of time.
Su Jie will forever be a pawn in his hands, a pawn that is easy to use, convenient, and that he doesn't need to worry about backlash.
The Lord of the Primordial Beginning put down his teacup. Now that he knew the answer, his tone returned to its previous casualness.
"Originally, I wanted you to win the disciple competition six years later, to help you make a name for yourself and solidify your position as a Daoist disciple."
However, judging from how you handled those representatives just now, you were impeccable, neither servile nor arrogant, far exceeding my expectations of a young master. The disciple competition is far too easy for you.
He paused, took out a dark gold token from his sleeve, placed it on the low table, and pushed it in front of Su Jie.
The token is palm-sized, dark gold in color, with the character "巡" (xun, meaning patrol) engraved on the front and the emblem of the Primordial Temple on the back, surrounded by a pattern of nine stars.
Su Jie glanced down at it, but didn't pick it up immediately, waiting for the Lord of Origin to continue.
The Lord of the Primordial Era leaned back against the low table, his gaze returning to Su Jie's face.
"Besides my Primordial Continent, there is an endless universe in the Chaos Sea."
There are 360 of the highest-level higher-dimensional universes, each governed by an eternal eight-wheeled being.
One of them is called the Azure Universe, which has been dominated by my Primordial Temple for generations, and is a vassal force belonging to my Primordial Temple.
He paused, his tone growing heavier: "But the ruler of that universe didn't attend your coronation ceremony this time."
Su Jie's brow twitched slightly.
When the Daozi is crowned, the vassal forces are obligated to attend and offer their congratulations; this is both a matter of custom and a matter of attitude.
Not coming is sending a certain signal.
The Lord of the Primordial Beginning continued, "I hereby appoint you as the Inspector of the Nine Stars of the Primordial Beginning. With this token, you shall exercise your authority as if I were here in person."
You are to travel to the Canglan Universe to investigate the matter. You are to handle the questions, observations, and investigations as you see fit.
His tone was calm, but his last sentence carried a meaning that Su Jie could easily understand.
Su Jie quickly weighed the weight of those words in his mind.
"Do it your own way" means that the Primordial Lord has given him the power of life and death in the Canglan Universe.
If the person in charge of that universe is merely negligent and rude, then it is up to him to decide whether a reprimand or a lecture is sufficient.
However, if a more serious situation arises, such as betraying the Primordial Temple or joining one of the other two transcendent forces, then his duty as the inspector is to deal with the matter on the spot and kill the offender without exception.
Su Jie reached out and picked up the token. It felt warm and heavy in his hand, but the cool sensation spread from his palm.
He looked up at the Lord of the Primordial Beginning and pondered, "If I may be so bold as to ask, if the Lord of the Azure Universe has already betrayed us, I fear I will find it difficult to contend with him alone. After all, I am afraid I cannot contend with an Eight-Wheel Eternal Being."
The Primordial Lord did not answer immediately. He picked up his teacup, took another sip, and put it down, his tone as indifferent as if he were discussing a trivial matter:
"In the storage ring I gave you before, there was a talisman that I personally engraved."
If you encounter an opponent you cannot defeat, simply use a talisman; it can suppress anyone below the level of transcendence.
