A new problem soon presented itself to them.
What should I do about insurance policies that cover multiple children and their benefits?
Strictly speaking, the four of them can exchange their cultivation techniques because their life experiences are similar. If one person can trigger it, there is no reason why another person cannot.
However, none of the four of them could trigger the "many children, many blessings" insurance.
As for Jiang Shu, unlike them who have lived for so many years, he is still very young. He has no children by his side, not even a woman to share a bed with. Moreover, judging from the obvious difference in his emotions and attitude when he concocts the human-faced weasel and when he faces the Snow King, they do not believe that their lord can easily have offspring.
Reproductive isolation, even in the world they live in, is a fundamental law governing the composition of the world.
Moreover, the hammer puppet had just read the cultivation technique and knew that the higher the level of cultivation a powerful person reached, the more difficult it would be to have offspring. This was why the chief senior sister of the Many Children, Many Blessings Sect was able to break through to the Dangerous Venerable realm after having only a dozen or so children.
This is a limitation imposed by the laws of Heaven!
So, the spindle puppet asked with some concern, "Master, wouldn't it be quite difficult for you to have children with humans? Is there anything we can do to help?"
"What are you saying? What are you saying?" Jiang Shu felt insulted.
Life and interests are two completely different things, and he doesn't like this kind of unauthorized labeling.
"Ah, I'm sorry, but I just feel..." The spindle puppet hesitated, unable to finish its sentence.
“I know what you want to say, and I know what you are worried about.”
Jiang Shu sneered:
"Although I don't like what you say, this is the first time you've worried about me and tried to share my burdens, instead of just doing whatever I tell you to do without saying anything extra. This is a good change."
So as a reward, I'll show you my limits!
After saying that, he began to practice the "Many Children, Many Blessings" technique.
The next moment, the light shone brightly!
Judging from the intensity of the light and the strength of the insurance payout, there must be at least dozens or even hundreds of offspring!
"This...how could this be?" The puppets were utterly shocked. "You're so young, how could you..."
Contrary to what they imagined, Jiang Shu did not have no children; in fact, she had quite a few!
Aside from being shocked by the number of his children.
The puppets couldn't understand either. Jiang Shu's world wasn't like the Insurance Continent. Even if he didn't want to take responsibility, he still had to pay for people's living expenses. How could he afford it?!
"Humph!"
As if reading their minds, Jiang Shu said disdainfully:
"Who says I have to be interested in having children?"
Who said that if I give birth to a child, I have to raise it?
Don't you know you can donate crystals?
"what?!"
The four were speechless.
They thought they had triggered the Shit Mountain code themselves, and that playing the cracked version and quickly mastering the five major cultivation techniques already made them evil cultivators.
Who would have thought that there was someone even more wicked among the wicked!
There's something even more sinister!
With reverence, they asked Jiang Shu, "You were so farsighted; did you foresee this day coming?"
“No.” Jiang Shu shook his head: “Five thousand each time.”
Chapter Sixty-Six: Each with Their Own Hidden agendas
While Jiang Shu and the others were plotting to trick the five major sects into giving them more cultivation points,
The capital city was calm, yet not entirely peaceful.
Ordinary students at the school who hadn't yet taken out insurance for cultivation were studying and thinking about what to eat for lunch. People on the street didn't notice anything unusual and continued to walk leisurely. Cultivators were busy with their cultivation, either studying in their sects or trying to trigger insurance outside.
Only a few people sensed the change.
High in the sky, above the clouds, in a place invisible and imperceptible to ordinary people and even cultivators with shallow cultivation, five figures gathered together.
"You felt it too?" The leader of the Hardworking and Dedicated Faction asked solemnly.
The leader of the Unyielding Sect smiled and said, "If you can't even feel this, then all these years of cultivation have been for nothing."
"Stop arguing, let's find out what happened first," the leader of the Late Bloomer School said helplessly.
The five of them looked into the distance.
Above the capital city, a faint vortex, almost covering half of the city, was spinning wildly, drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Despite the massive scale of the event, very few people may actually have seen the vortex.
Only those who have reached the realm of the Perilous Saint, and can initially sense the Heavenly Dao, and who stand at the pinnacle of the Insurance Continent, can barely sense its existence.
"Wow, it really has a lot of absorption power..." The leader of the "Many Children, Many Blessings" faction seemed to be lost in thought, his mind filled with longing.
"Let's think of something. If this continues, the spiritual energy of the capital... no, even the entire continent, will be drained." The sect leader of the Immunity to All Diseases Sect said grimly, "If we can't stop it, this will escalate into a terrible disaster."
The other four were fully aware of this.
But what exactly could cause such a celestial phenomenon?
"Let's go take a look and see."
"it is good."
Just as these five top experts, representing the highest combat power on the Insurance Continent, were about to join forces to investigate, the vortex suddenly and mysteriously disappeared.
"Disappeared?"
How could that be?
The five people were astonished.
The strange phenomena appeared and disappeared suddenly, leaving even them bewildered and unable to comprehend them.
"Does this foreshadow something?" The leader of the Immunity to All Diseases Sect asked with some concern.
The leader of the Unyielding Faction looked at the leader of the Late Bloomer Faction: "Aren't you good at fortune telling? Why don't you try?"
The leader of the Late Bloomer School was speechless: "Don't you know that the bigger the issue, the more difficult it is to calculate? Human fate is one thing, but you want me to calculate the Heavenly Dao? You wish I were dead?"
"Hehe." The leader of the Unyielding Faction chuckled mischievously, "You're quite shrewd."
The leader of the "late bloomer" school was speechless.
“This might be an opportunity.” Ignoring the two, the sect leader of the Many Children, Many Blessings faction was full of optimism: “Since the last perilous emperor ascended nearly a thousand years ago, there has not been such an anomaly for many years. Perhaps, a great era is about to begin.”
“The Great World…” The sect leader of the Hardworking and Dedicated faction couldn’t help but recall his conversation with Qin Tian that morning.
The successors of the four major sects all broke through to the Thrilling Venerable realm at a young age, making rapid progress that far surpassed that of the older generation.
The grand event may have already been brewing for some time, and the current unusual phenomena may be a harbinger of its imminent opening.
If that's the case, perhaps another perilous emperor is about to be born!
“Even if it is a great era, we will not be able to catch up.” The leader of the Unyielding Sect smiled meaningfully: “Perhaps, in the future, it will depend on whose successor can successfully break through to the Perilous Emperor level. At that time, the five major sects may have to be reshuffled.”
Upon hearing this, the other four people reacted with varying expressions.
While they were making their own calculations, they all looked at the leader of the late-blooming faction.
"Think about it carefully, it is truly remarkable that a single Emperor of Danger has allowed your Late Bloomers Sect to enjoy five hundred years of blessings and become the head of the five major sects for five hundred years."
"Yes, that's great, don't feel too pressured."
"If we wait another five hundred years, perhaps another great era will come?"
Several people comforted the leader of the late-blooming faction, but how much of their comfort was genuine was anyone's guess.
At least from the perspective of the leader of the "late bloomer" school, there was more sarcasm than consolation.
The other four major sects each have a young generation leader, all of whom are exceptionally talented and amazing. However, the late-blooming sect is the only one that has already shown signs of decline. Although its top combat power and lower-level cultivators are no less than those of other sects, it lacks a pillar and a leader to carry on the legacy, and there is a hint of a generational gap.
Since he took over the "late bloomers" faction, he has been trying to reverse the situation, but all he can do is slow down the progress and he has never been able to completely change the status quo.
If a great era has truly begun, then his efforts will no longer be able to stop the decline, and the downfall of the late-blooming school seems to be a foregone conclusion.
However, it's only an apparent view.
He had just received a report from Elder Sun that the young man who had stirred up trouble in the capital had agreed to join the Late Bloomers faction.
And he will personally come to see me tonight.
At that time, he will devote all his resources to helping the other party gain the strength to quickly compete with other heirs.
He knew perfectly well that the young man was not only a late bloomer in cultivation, but also a genius capable of cultivating other sects' cultivation techniques. The four people in front of him who were mocking him had also tried, or even already had, made contact with him.
But what a pity...
In the end, he was one step ahead, and the late bloomer finally got the last piece of the puzzle.
Now, whoever wins over Xiao Yan wins the world; the so-called successor is nothing more than a stepping stone for Xiao Yan.
The next five hundred years will still belong to my late-blooming generation!
Looking at the other four, he felt they were utterly pathetic.
They're all thinking of using the nominal heir as a cover to secretly overtake others, unaware that Xiao Yan is already mine.
Laugh all you want at me, just as our late-blooming success is an insurance policy; time will prove everything.
So he deliberately pretended to be a little embarrassed.
"It might not be a major event, perhaps? Why don't we go back to the place where the strange phenomenon occurred and see if there are any clues?"
As expected, just as he had anticipated, the other sect leaders smiled upon seeing his reaction.
This made him secretly pleased.
To destroy them, first make them mad; the higher we elevate them now, the harder they will fall.
Upon hearing his proposal, the other sect leaders only considered it briefly before decisively rejecting it.
"I'm sorry, I have something very important to take care of right away, and I can't get away."
“Me too. I also have something to do in a while. Why don’t you go and check the clues yourself? Our strengths are about the same, so it’s no different for five of us to go together or for you to go alone.”
"Yes, yes, I also have important things to do this afternoon. Anyway, we trust you, so you can go by yourself."
"It's a pity, I also have things to do this evening, I have to go back and make arrangements, so I can't go with you."
Upon hearing this, the sect leader of the Late Bloomer School nodded: "In that case, I'll go and take a look by myself."
After bidding farewell to the four and watching them leave, the leader of the Late Bloomer School couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
Are you all so smug because you think this is the beginning of a great era? Perhaps in your eyes, I am just a pathetic wretch trying to prove that this is not a great era, so you don't want to waste your energy on me, right?
After today, I'll see who the real wretch is!
His figure vanished from the spot, as if he had never been there at all...
......
That night.
With a smile, Jiang Shu bid farewell to the sect leader of the Late Bloomer School and left the sect under Elder Sun's guidance.
"You can officially start your training tomorrow. I've already taken care of all the formalities for you."
Elder Sun had a broad smile on his face.
Jiang Shu nodded and asked curiously, "The sect leader isn't as scary as you described. Isn't he quite approachable?"
"Oh dear, my dear nephew, this is all because of you."
Having witnessed the pleasant conversation between the two, Elder Sun not only dared not utter a single complaint about Jiang Shu's tormenting of him, but also resolved to cling tightly to this powerful figure.
"You have no idea how long it's been since the sect leader laughed like that."
What domineering CEO and old butler?
Jiang Shu smiled but remained silent.
Just as he had predicted, all the sect leaders kept his affairs a secret and did not communicate with each other. Instead, they were wary of one another, which allowed him to quickly learn about the five major sects in one day. With Bai Yuanyi and the others by his side, he felt an instant connection with each sect leader and gained unimaginable benefits.
"Oh, right."
