Chapter 128 The Master Slays Demons, I Destroy Temples; First Eliminate Guanjiang Estuary, Then Destroy Chentang Pass
"[Breaking News] Our station has just received breaking news: the Hundred Schools of Thought Traveling the World Foundation, established nearly a month ago, has finally made its official announcement today. The president is Mr. Qi Tianqi. The foundation has established six departments, each headed by a different person: Lord Mengchang, Lord Pingyuan, Lord Xinling, Lord Chunshen, Prince Dan, and Shen Buhai. All six departments have issued recruitment notices. Anyone with achievements and abilities is welcome to submit their resume. Those selected will be recruited. This foundation is a public welfare organization serving seven countries. All employees will be provided with permanent positions and enjoy the highest welfare benefits in the seven countries, including eight types of insurance and three types of funds. Detailed benefits will be discussed in person!"
"[Breaking News] Lord Xinling, the foremost of the Four Lords of the Warring States, a top influencer in the seven kingdoms, and a renowned figure in the martial arts, entertainment, and finance worlds, has revealed that his foundation is incredibly powerful and welcomes heroes from all over the world to join. The first outstanding talents to join will receive mysterious rewards such as custom-made mechs, exclusive Qin enhancement tickets, divine weapons and armor, and martial arts manuals. These rewards are limited in quantity and will be given out on a first-come, first-served basis."
"[Breaking News] Well-known martial arts organizations such as Quicksand and Net have warmly congratulated the Foundation on its establishment, welcoming its contribution of new strength to the martial arts world. However, the largest martial arts sect, the Death Squad Alliance, has not yet made any statement regarding the Foundation. Sources indicate that the head of the Foundation's armed forces is Prince Dan, who was originally a founder of the Death Squad Alliance but was later expelled. Now that Prince Dan has regained control of the armed forces, he is in a competitive and hostile relationship with the Death Squad Alliance, and the possibility of the Death Squad Alliance becoming an enemy of the Foundation cannot be ruled out!"
"..."
Three consecutive news items about foundations have stirred up the current martial arts world, causing widespread anxiety and unease.
Even in Pei County, a remote and desolate sixth-tier city in the Qin state, it still deeply resonated with the people of the martial arts world.
In a dilapidated bar, the light was dim and the noise of shouting and cursing could be heard.
"Don't change the channel! Why change it?! My idol is Lord Xinling! Watch Lord Xinling!"
"Big Brother said, don't change the channel! Can't you understand? You're blind!"
"I'm blind, what kind of TV can I watch?! I didn't bring the remote!"
"That's right, is the projector broken? Hey bro, the projector's broken!"
Three men in leather jackets were tidying up an old projector.
Opposite the projector, in the middle of the booth, sat a young man around thirty years old with a roguish air about him. He was wearing a patched-up ancient costume, and there was a carefree air about him between his brows.
The young man turned around and said to his group of buddies behind him, "Can someone explain to me what these 'eight insurances and three funds' are?"
Beside him, a burly man with round eyes and a bushy beard said, "I know about the five social insurances and one housing fund, but I don't know about the eight social insurances and three housing funds."
A junior employee standing nearby asked, "Is it possible that it includes year-end bonuses and performance-related bonuses?"
The young customer service representative from the ancient costume-clad hero shook his head. "Impossible! What is that foundation? It's a top-tier organization, endorsed by the Hundred Schools of Thought, with experts from the Seven Kingdoms gathered there. What kind of place is that? Do you think they'd try to fob you off with these kinds of rewards? They'd definitely give you amazing treasures! Treasures that we country bumpkins have never seen before!"
The burly man with round eyes and a thick beard said, "Brother, what does this have to do with us? Let's drink, let's drink!"
The eldest young man didn't drink; instead, he held up a bottle and addressed his brothers, "The person I, Liu Bang, admire most in my life is Lord Xinling, Wei Wuji, who stole the tally to rescue Zhao!"
"Lord Xinling was brave, resourceful, loyal, and righteous! He was bold, passionate, and unrestrained! Such a remarkable figure from the Warring States period, it's a pity I can only see him on television every day!"
"My idol is now recruiting extensively, seeking many subordinates!"
"And I, in my thirties, the prime of my life!"
"There's no reason for me not to give it a try!"
"What if Lord Xinling takes a liking to me? Wouldn't that be like successfully chasing after a star, achieving my dream?"
When the young man spoke, the men around him burst into laughter.
"Big brother must be drunk!"
"Brother, stop dreaming! What did Lord Xinling recruit? Students from the Hundred Schools of Thought, top students from prestigious Ivy League universities! And what are we? We're just high school dropouts!"
"Brother, you probably haven't even written a resume. And you want to go and join Lord Xinling, hoping to become his retainer? You're dreaming! Lord Xinling may have the most retainers in the solar system, but he doesn't support idlers, he doesn't support hooligans like us!"
"Someone, help Brother Fan to the next room to sober up, then we can continue drinking! Brother Fan, I'd like to propose a toast!"
"Alright, cheers! Let's eat! This Pei County belongs to us brothers; every penny that falls into our laps belongs to the Liu family!"
"Ha ha--"
In the next private room, Liu Bang sat on the sofa, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Or perhaps Liu Bang wasn't drunk at all, so he didn't need to sleep.
Liu Bang was extremely agitated. The scene of Lord Xinling being surrounded and interviewed by countless media outlets on television just now kept flashing through his mind.
Liu Bang sat up abruptly, muttering to himself, "No, I can't let my life slip away in Pei County like this!"
"I need to do something!"
"Buy a ticket to the moon!"
"Your Majesty! Let's do it this way!"
Liu Bang sat up and roared towards the door, "Fan Kuai, you lot, do you have the guts to come with me to the moon? Let's join the Foundation and do something big!"
When everyone heard Liu Bang's words, they were all at a loss. Had their elder brother taken the wrong medicine?
This scene not only appeared in Pei County, but also in various places in the six kingdoms. In an instant, countless talented people began to buy tickets and rush to the moon, showing a great ambition to join the great cause across the four seas and eight wastelands.
In this way, the vast barren lands on the far side of the moon came in handy.
Outward from the satellite city of the Foundation's base, the security forces' construction team began construction overnight. With the operation of hundreds of super engineering spaceships, a large border residential area capable of accommodating a million people was built in less than a week. At the same time, a large number of related supporting facilities were also built. The Ministry of Personnel of the Great Qin Dynasty specially approved a name for this city overnight: Crescent City.
As the foundation at the center of this vortex, all six departments are extremely busy, their shoes practically smoking from all the friction!
With six departments recruiting, a large number of people are applying, and staff also need to arrange salaries, benefits, and accommodation!
The guards and subordinates that the six young masters had brought were simply not enough. In desperation, they borrowed a thousand men from Meng Tian, the head of the security forces, to maintain order and carry out simple administrative tasks.
Meng Tian generously approved 5,000 men, saying they could be used at will, as his Golden Fire Cavalry was a first-class military unit and could be replenished at any time.
The frenzy at the job fair was so intense that all sorts of relatives, from cousins and uncles to sons-in-law, suddenly appeared. Some obscure relatives, whom we hadn't spoken to in decades, suddenly jumped out and said, "We're blood relatives, you have to arrange a good job for our child."
But where are there so many lucrative positions? The really good positions for seniority-building have already been arranged and reserved by the six kings. For you, you either need ability or you need to make sacrifices. Don't even think about working for free at the foundation!
"Boss! Another one with connections has arrived!" the guard said, his face covered in sweat. "This time it's a child who's a little over six years old."
Lord Xinling, Wei Wuji, said with annoyance, "Didn't I tell you all? We'll politely decline all requests from people with connections!"
The guard said, "However, the other party claims that his uncle is Zhang Beihai, and Zhang Beihai is the homeroom teacher of Qin Feng, the coachman of Fuzi Tianxia. He accompanied Qin Feng throughout the national civil service examination in Xianyang and has a very close relationship with him!"
Lord Xinling's expression changed drastically, but he chuckled and said, "Quickly, welcome him in! This isn't someone with connections; he's an outstanding young man, someone my foundation would be more than happy to have!"
Soon, the staff led Zhang Han over.
Little Zhang Han stared blankly at all of this, at a loss for what to do.
Lord Xinling looked at little Zhang Han, intending to tease him a bit before sending him to Qin Feng, but just then Lord Mengchang and his men came over excitedly. When they saw Lord Xinling teasing the child, they were shocked.
"Whose child is this!"
"Qin Feng's!"
"Wow, he's grown so much! Qin Feng is impressive! So young and accomplished!"
Lord Xinling realized his mistake and quickly said, "He is the nephew of Zhang Beihai, Qin Feng's teacher!"
"Oh, that scared me to death!" said Prince Dan from the side. "I have something to show you!"
Lord Xinling took the letter from Prince Dan, glanced at it, and immediately jumped up, exclaiming, "I...I'm speechless! Does our lord want to fly to the heavens?"
Lord Mengchang sighed with the expression of someone who had lost their wife, "I told you long ago, the eldest son is no pushover! He must have had ulterior motives for setting up this foundation! Look! Isn't he after us?"
Shen Buhai retorted, "It can't be said that he was after us. He had a clear plan from the beginning, telling us that we would be his assistants, and we agreed. We just didn't expect that before we even agreed, he had already put us on his chariot, the kind that's tied to the wheels!"
Lord Pingyuan said, "The most urgent thing now is to find the leader and have him explain what exactly happened!"
"Yes!" Lord Xinling pulled young Zhang Han along. "Come on, let's go find the boss!"
The six gentlemen, along with Zhang Han, rushed off in a hurry!
Lord Xinling didn't realize that his casual remark that the child belonged to Qin Feng had been overheard by a passing subordinate, who immediately sold this gossip!
His subordinates, of course, had no idea that Qin Feng was Qi Tian; they still thought he was Qin Feng, the coachman who traveled the world in the Immortal Realm.
Compared to the impending reprimand from the Six Gentlemen, Qin Feng was more agitated in the chairman's office.
Nothing more than two pieces of news.
All bad news.
The first piece of bad news: after the Ginseng Fruit Tree clone entered the Arad Continent, it suffered severe acclimatization problems, and the saplings almost died. Because of this, Qin Feng now not only has to feed a hundred adventurers but also the saplings, draining nearly 2000+ units of his Qi and Blood daily! If it weren't for Qin Feng's 9999 Qi and Blood, an ordinary person would have been drained dry by this miniature universe! This made Qin Feng furious! He thought he had invited a god of wealth, but who knew he had invited a spendthrift star! If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have invited the Ginseng Fruit Tree in the first place!
Of course, the ancestor of the ginseng fruit tree also explained that it is a common problem for plants to not adapt to the new environment, and they will get better after a while.
Qin Feng asked how long it would take, and the ancestor said it was hard to say, it was working hard! At the same time, the ginseng fruit tree ancestor highly praised Qin Feng's apostle plan, praising Qin Feng for emulating the sage Hongjun to open the path of the sage. The sage is the apostle, the sage stands opposite all living beings, and the apostle stands opposite the players. It's too perfect. This script is simply brilliant.
You can't hit someone who's smiling, and Qin Feng was helpless against the old ancestor!
The second piece of bad news.
Master Meng traveled the world and wiped out the entire Meishan area, but Meishan was not one to be trifled with.
During the Investiture of the Gods period, the Seven Sages of Meishan and Yang Jian, the Erlang Shen of Guanjiangkou, were sworn brothers. The Seven Sages of Meishan even participated in the Investiture of the Gods war, making great contributions to the Zhou royal family and the human world, and befriending many powerful figures among the demon and human races.
This includes Guanjiang Estuary!
Upon hearing that the Meishan Eight Eccentrics had been wiped out by Master Meng, Yang Chan, the current head of the family and Yang Jian's sister, issued a proclamation of condemnation overnight, demanding an explanation from Master Meng. She threatened to lead the people of Guanjiangkou to attack the human realm if Master Meng did not provide an explanation soon!
Mencius didn't even bother to acknowledge the proclamation from Guanjiangkou, continuing to travel and enjoy his life in Aolai Kingdom.
So this matter should have ended there; it was a case of you saying what you wanted and me doing what I wanted.
Your calling out is an act of kindness from your old friends in Meishan.
I'm ignoring you because my teacher is magnanimous and won't stoop to your level.
However, by sheer bad luck, Chentang Pass, which had been a long-time enemy of Guanjiangkou, jumped out.
The Li family of Chentang Pass launched a taunt, "Yang Chan of Guanjiang Estuary, you're hopeless! Remember when Erlang Shen Yang Jian was around? Who dared to disrespect Guanjiang Estuary? Now your own brothers have been wiped out, and you dare to ask for an explanation? Why don't you dare ask for an apology? Why don't you have the guts to ask your old friends from Meishan for compensation? If you can't do it, I will! I, the descendants of the Seven Sages of Meishan from Chentang Pass, will demand this compensation! Our ancestor Nezha fought alongside Yang Jian and the Seven Sages of Meishan! We'll take the blame!"
Yang Chan of Guanjiangkou was provoked by his opponent at Chentang Pass, and had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to issue proclamations to denounce Master Meng and demand an apology from him!
Yang Chan's apology letter infuriated Master Meng!
The Master got angry too. I ignored you because you are a woman and I didn't want to lower myself to your level. You still want to take advantage of me?
Of course, it's impossible for Master Meng to personally intervene in a fight against a woman, especially since he's already in the East Sea and wouldn't be able to travel elsewhere and disrupt his schedule.
Master Meng casually remarked that the matter should be handled by the coachman, Qin Feng.
Upon hearing this, everyone wiped their eyes wide open. All the demons, big and small, in the Immortal Realm picked up their stools, grabbed some melon seeds and peanuts, and began to watch the show!
The instigators, the Li family of Chentang Pass who stirred up trouble, and the Yang family of Guanjiangkou who sent a scathing letter, immediately tensed up.
Although they were humans from the Immortal Realm, they knew the affairs of the Seven Kingdoms very well, and they knew all too well what kind of person Qin Feng was.
Number one on all three lists! The unparalleled junior master! The top dog of the eighteenth generation! The designated charioteer of the world! He can even make the bully Zilu retreat!
These strategists either remain inactive or cause rivers of blood to flow!
Even when Master Meng exterminated an entire family, he would still be mindful of his limits and wouldn't go too far! Therefore, Yang Chan and the Li family aren't afraid of offending Master Meng. Even if Master Meng were their enemy, he wouldn't wipe out both families! Master Meng has his bottom line!
The strategists are different; they don't have a defined attack range!
The strategists are the type who will attack anyone they don't like! Most importantly, they have no bottom line!
Yang Chan from the Yang family is certainly despicable! But the Li family, who stirred up trouble, won't get away with it either!
They all washed my neck, one by one, and are waiting for me to pick it up!
The Li family of Chentang Pass was now speechless. They had inadvertently dragged themselves into the fire, a truly unique situation. There were even rumors that the Yang family and the Li family were joining forces to fight against Qin Feng, the strategist.
But some people might say, "What can Qin Feng do to your two families by himself?"
Qin Feng alone can't do anything to either of the two families, but don't forget he has a support group! The World Traveler Foundation is currently recruiting human experts in full swing, which means they're definitely planning something big!
Qin Feng was a strategist, and strategists don't fight unprepared battles. In an instant, everyone guessed that Qin Feng, the coachman, had already used the foundation to recruit soldiers and horses to prepare to destroy Chentang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary!
Some well-informed sources even revealed that it was the coachman's idea to wipe out the Eight Eccentrics of Meishan, and that the coachman's real intention was to target the two major families!
Some well-informed people even solemnly explained the reasons, saying that Qin Feng was a man of the Great Qin, and that the Great Qin inherited the Shang Dynasty's system of human kingship. They naturally admired and worshipped the Shang Dynasty and hated the Zhou royal family. Chentang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary were the hometowns of Yang Jian and Nezha. In the past, Yang Jian and Nezha destroyed the foundation of the Great Shang. Today, Qin Feng of the Great Qin should destroy your temples and avenge the Great Shang!
"That damn well-informed person must be Shao Siming from the Yin-Yang School!"
"From this analysis, I can smell the stench of those bastards from the Yin-Yang School. They're plotting against me behind my back again!"
"Damn it! I truly never intended to attack Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary! Heaven and earth bear witness!"
When Qin Feng's main body woke up, he looked at the situation analysis on the AI and was extremely annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.
Yang Chan is scolding the teacher, which means she's scolding the leader. As a student and subordinate, if I don't get rid of Yang Chan and raze the Li family to the ground, I might as well get out of here!
"Sir!" Hu Hai said cautiously from outside the door, "The vice president is here to report on his work."
Qin Feng raised his hand, "Please come in, everyone!"
Outside the door, six vice presidents hurriedly entered the president's office, leaving Zhang Han behind.
Hu Hai, standing at the door, looked at a little boy two or three years younger than himself and asked, "Who are you?"
Zhang Han looked timidly at Hu Hai and said, "My name is Zhang Han, and my uncle is Zhang Beihai, Qin Feng's teacher."
Hu Hai was taken aback. The teacher's teacher's nephew?
What a complicated relationship!
But Hu Hai knew very well that among his teacher's students, this Zhang Beihai, the righteous pirate, had an extremely close relationship with his teacher! During the national civil service exam, Zhang Beihai was always the one who helped him out!
Hu Hai patted Zhang Han on the shoulder, "I am Master Qitian's disciple, you can call me Young Master! From now on, you're my little brother! As long as your big brother has something to eat, you won't go hungry!"
Zhang Han nodded repeatedly, "Alright, young master!"
"Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious!" Hu Hai pulled Zhang Han along. "Don't mess around on the eighteenth floor, the highest floor of this foundation. This is where the adults discuss matters; only I can go in. Don't come here again!"
"Young master, your clothes are so handsome!"
"That's right! I am a prince of Qin! My father is the king! My elder brother is the eldest prince! My teacher is Qi Tian, the best teacher in Qin, Qin, Qin!"
"Young master, do you stutter?"
"Stop stuttering! Can't you speak properly? From now on, you need to address your older brother respectfully! Otherwise, if others bully you, I won't be responsible!"
"..."
In the president's office, the six vice presidents had red eyes and dark circles under their eyes, clearly indicating that they had been overexerting themselves mentally these past few days. Even with their strong martial arts foundation, they were almost unable to hold on.
Holding a piece of intelligence, Prince Dan asked impatiently, "President, look! Everyone's saying you're planning to take action against Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary. Is that true?"
Qin Feng took a simple letter from the drawer and waved it at the two of them. "Here, a letter from the Master, instructing me to wipe out Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary as soon as possible!"
Prince Dan said, "In my youth, I traveled to this place. Guanjiang Estuary and Chentang Pass were both territories during the Shang Dynasty. Later, the supercontinent shattered, and they became two forbidden lands in Zhuolu, one of the eighteen blessed lands!"
"Both of these places are truly formidable and impregnable strongholds, easy to defend and difficult to attack!"
"And neither the Yang family nor the Li family are easy to deal with!"
"President, if you really want to take these two locations, you should do it secretly first, find out the situation, plant spies, and proceed slowly. Now it's like you're going to launch a full-scale attack, which is very difficult."
Qin Feng looked at Prince Dan, "You don't actually think I orchestrated this, do you?"
Wei Wuji said, "It must have been you who orchestrated this! I saw the news; the idea to wipe out the Eight Eccentrics of Meishan was probably yours. The Master was wiped out, and you immediately formed this 'Walking the World' organization, binding the Seven Kingdoms and the Hundred Schools of Thought onto the war chariot! Isn't this clearly a way to deal with Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary?"
Qin Feng looked at the six people and knew in his heart that this was something that couldn't be explained away!
The idea that he could be the "Wandering Emperor" was just a sinecure that Ying Zheng himself assigned to himself after kicking himself out of Xianyang!
He had no idea that the Eight Eccentrics of Meishan had been wiped out; the messenger hadn't even mentioned it. It was only after the Master finished his work that his uncle told him!
Now look what's happened, all the blame is being placed on me, Qin Feng!
Qin Feng offered no further explanation, looking directly at the crowd with a cold, stern voice, "The foundation was originally established to serve those who travel the world. Now that the opportunity has arrived, we must seize it, whether we like it or not!"
"The Master slays the demon, I destroy the temple; first we'll eliminate the mouth of the Guan River, then we'll annihilate Chentang Pass!"
"The Foundation's first battle! Are you all confident?"
Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, everyone chorused, "If the guild leader has confidence, then we have confidence! Victory is assured, and victory is assured!"
After reaching a consensus, Lord Xinling raised a question that dealt another blow to Qin Feng's heart: "President, since you arranged all of this, why don't you tell us your plan?"
Lord Mengchang also said, "Yes, Master, the sooner you give the order, the better, so we can make preparations!"
Qin Feng had just received the news and had no contingency plan. Looking at his expectant subordinates, he could only feign mystery and say, "I'll tell you when the time is right. Go back and get busy!"
The people around Qin Feng believed him without question. There was no other way; the strategists were masters of intrigue. Since he had set up this scheme, he must have already prepared the coffins for Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary!
Everyone left laughing, seemingly confident of victory.
However, Qin Feng panicked. Damn it, how the hell am I supposed to fight this?! I know absolutely nothing about these two places, and I've never even heard of them before.
As the saying goes, "An elder in the family is a treasure," and at this critical moment, Qin Feng remembered the ancestral ginseng fruit tree.
Our ancestor was well-versed in both ancient and modern knowledge; he must know how to deal with Chentang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary!
Go ask the ancestor!
Qin Feng's main body lay back down on the chair to sleep, while his consciousness returned to his clone.
The clone emerged from the surface of the primordial sea, and the local ancestor indeed appeared before it.
The old patriarch chuckled and asked, "Young Master Qin Feng, what brings you here?"
Qin Feng looked at the ancestor and asked, "May I ask, ancestor, are you familiar with Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary?"
"These two places, huh?" the illusory figure said calmly. "You're quite familiar with them! Guanjiang Estuary is the sacred site of Erlang Shen Yang Jian! Chentang Pass is the sacred site of Nezha, the Great God of the Three Altars and the Sea! Now, both Nezha and Yang Jian are gone. The head of Guanjiang Estuary is Yang Jian's sister, Yang Chan! And the head of Chentang Pass is Nezha's elder brother, Li Muzha! What's wrong? Do you have a grudge against them?"
Qin Feng sighed and briefly recounted the story of traveling the world.
The old patriarch laughed heartily, "Qin Feng, Qin Feng, so you've finally got to take the blame!"
Faced with the patriarch's merciless mockery, Qin Feng sighed, "Who says it isn't true! When I heard this news, I was completely stunned!"
"I, Qin Feng, am a distinguished young man of the Great Qin Dynasty, and a five-star model citizen!"
"I was just sitting at home, and trouble fell from the sky!"
"Sigh! I can't get rid of this blame! Ancestor, you be the judge, why is my life so miserable!"
"But Ancestor, now is not the time for sarcastic remarks. Can we talk about something more substantial? For example, how to break the deadlock!"
On the primordial sea of qi, the illusory figure of the ancestor stroked his vine-like beard and said calmly, "Breaking the deadlock is easy; the difficult part is knowing who set it up."
Qin Feng looked at the ancestor thoughtfully, then his eyes lit up. "Yang Jian, Nezha, these are all gods. If I attack them, it would be tantamount to defying the gods and defying the heavens!"
The old ancestor laughed heartily, "Young man, you're clever! This scheme may seem like a battle against Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary, but it's actually a war between man and heaven. Putting aside whether you can win or not, you're bound to offend the heavenly beings this time! You'd better think it through."
Qin Feng's eyes were clear. "I have no way out! When Master Meng singled me out, it meant that Master Meng had decided to defy the heavens and fight against the gods. I am a follower, and what I must do is follow Master! Please, Ancestor, show me the right path."
"Alas, the struggle between heaven, earth, and man continues endlessly, when will it ever end!" the ancestor lamented. "Chen Tang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary, as the sacred sites of these two great gods, have both undergone rigorous reinforcement. Their protective arrays are undoubtedly layered upon layered, making any attempt to attack them an impossible task!"
"Even if we try to sow discord between the two families using tactical maneuvers and sit back to watch them fight, it will be very difficult! After all, they are already gods, and their relationship with your human race is no longer significant!"
"Therefore, to break this deadlock, we must resort to unconventional tactics!"
Qin Feng looked at the ancestor, "What do you mean?"
The ancestor said, "East Sea! I can only point you this far; the rest is up to you."
East China Sea?
Isn't the Master right here in the East Sea?
Donghai is using underhanded tactics, so will Donghai help me?
Does the East China Sea have any grudges against these two families?
Whether there is any animosity between the East China Sea and Guanjiangkou is unknown, but there is definitely animosity between Chentang Pass!
In the past, Nezha skinned and dismantled the dragon, causing great suffering to the East Sea!
Qin Feng thought to himself, "The reinforcements are in the East Sea. As long as I can persuade the Four Sea Dragon Kings to join me, we can overpower the two great families!"
Qin Feng grinned and said, "Ancestor, your wisdom and foresight are truly admirable! However, there's something I'm unsure whether I should say!"
The old ancestor looked at Qin Feng and said, "Say whatever you want! We both know our trump cards, right?"
Qin Feng chuckled and said, "Ancestor, after your clone entered my universe, it immediately gave up. Is it because it's not used to the environment, or are you just trying to disgust me?"
The old ancestor laughed heartily. "Cosmic messenger? Cosmic will? You finally admit you're Linus, huh!"
Qin Feng looked at the ancestor awkwardly, "Ancestor, is this interesting? Is there a difference between a cosmic messenger and the will of the universe?"
The Ancestor said, "The difference is huge! The words of the Cosmic Messenger show that you don't consider the Ancestor one of your own, so why should the Ancestor nurture your microcosm? If you are the will of the universe, admit it to the Ancestor's face, instead of playing tricks, then the Ancestor will nurture your microcosm!"
"It's not just that! The Ancestor won't let me nurture my inner universe, and he's deliberately draining my blood essence. There's also the Ancestor's dissatisfaction with me!" Qin Feng pointed to the vast Sea of Origin. "After all, I came here to eat and drink the Ancestor's food, and now I'm asking him to nurture my inner universe. The Ancestor is clearly unhappy about that!"
"After all, you're supporting my clone and my inner universe; I'm getting a little too cocky!"
"Furthermore, during this time, Qingfeng has been constantly trying to enter the ginseng fruit tree to cause me trouble!"
"I'm absolutely certain that you, Ancestor, intend to kick me out of here!"
Upon hearing this, the patriarch no longer concealed his intentions, and smiled faintly, "Our fate has run its course. It's time for you to leave and deal with the two great families."
Qin Feng looked at the illusory image of the ancestor and uttered a question that had been on his mind for a long time, "Ancestor, one last question!"
"Is the patriarch of Wuzhuang Temple the human form that your tree spirit manifested in?"
"Actually, the ancestor I saw as soon as I entered was none other than Zhenyuan Daxian!"
The Ancestor smiled faintly, "You have too many questions! What I can tell you is that I have many avatars, just like the avatars in your microcosm—different places, different manifestations, different appearances!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng understood that Zhen Yuanzi was ultimately just an avatar of the Ginseng Fruit Tree, but this avatar had cultivated to an extraordinary level, developing its own consciousness!
But in the end, the ginseng fruit tree can survive without Zhen Yuanzi, but Zhen Yuanzi cannot live without the ginseng fruit tree!
The apparent boss of Wuzhuang Temple is Zhen Yuanzi, but the real big boss is the Ginseng Fruit Tree!
Qin Feng bowed deeply and respectfully, "Grandmaster's power is boundless, and I admire him immensely! However, please keep my cultivation method a secret, Grandmaster."
The patriarch said, "Since you call me patriarch, I cannot let you down by calling me teacher. I will remind you of three things."
"First, when in doubt, observe the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man. With a broader perspective, the answer will naturally emerge."
"Secondly, don't let greed cloud your judgment. Leave yourself an out in all situations, maintain your moral bottom line, and don't go to extremes. Even if you want to invite someone into your inner universe, don't lie to them or cause their death! Only when the other person is truly willing to leave this universe can they return to serve you without any regrets!"
"Third, clones are a good thing. You can try to create several clones, but you must cultivate the strongest clone."
Qin Feng knelt on the ground, respectfully saying, "Thank you for your explanation, Ancestor. I understand now!"
The ancestor's enormous figure gradually dissipated, his voice booming, "Take good care of the Heavenly Fire Phoenix Tree. Don't forget our agreement; you promised to help me nurture it!"
Qin Feng said, "But Ancestor, you promised to nurture my little universe!"
The ancestor's figure had vanished, leaving only the echoing sound of his voice.
"After you leave, the Ancestor will naturally take care of you. You're here, eating and drinking my food, and you expect me to nurture your little universe? You're dreaming!"
"Ancestor, you are a powerful figure comparable to the Ancestral Master, can't you be a little more generous and give me a few more ginseng fruits or earth spirit fruits..."
"Qin Feng, thank you for your kindness!"
"Goodbye, General MacArthur!"
"Goodbye, Mr. Linus!"
The ginseng fruit tree split open, and a strong wind howled, throwing Qin Feng's clone out!
