Recognizing the intruder's strength, Zi Yao did as told, also sitting in the seiza pose. Pleased by the grand priestess' compliance, Daji's lips curled up. And though she couldn't notice Yuemi's existence, as her Spiritual Sense scanned Zi Yao's body and soul, the fox girl noticed the various energies blending inside of her. Daji poured Zi Yao a cup of wine. The former yin matriarch observed the shrouded fox girl with scrutiny, and as her mind buzzed with countless thoughts, silence settled…-

Cold was the best word to describe the Anyue state's atmosphere. A dark moon hung at the epicenter of the sky, covering two-thirds of a 24h-day period in complete darkness. Many of the crops essential to mortal lives couldn't grow in the Anyue state, forcing the importation of various agricultural goods. Worse, over the generations, the dark moon modified the genetic makeup of the country's citizens. Making it so that, male or female, most were predisposed to cultivating Yin-based techniques.…

But "pace" here was the primary issue. The rate at which the Dao Breath enhanced the might of Xinzi's body, Dao Foundation and soul was way faster than it was in any other timeline — at least three times faster. The Dao Breath Alone couldn't explain this. 'He must have found a way to fuse his Five Elements Transmutative Technique with the Heavenly Dao and his Swallowing Skill — adding them all to his Dao Breath. So, this is no longer just Shenzhuo's Dao Breath, but a bridge between the…

He wasn't incorrect. The Dao Breath wasn't terrifying because of the ability to create avatars out of most lifeforms, or the power to channel the scattered skills of all bodies in one. No, what truly made the Dao Breath monstrous, was that with each breath that the practitioner took, they got stronger. One second, one minute, hours, days, months, years, eternity — Xinzi only had to keep breathing, and his Dao Fountation, body and soul would keep getting more tyrannical till the end of…

"I don't recall being of the same sect as any 'Divine Tailor,' so unless my aunt took in male disciples that I don't know about, I'm not your senior brother — and certainly not your eldest senior brother. I don't know how much information you've collected on us, but please don't joke with my defunct sect." Weak-willed, Zuixian was not, and as another mouthful of wine glided down his throat, his gaze hardened. Qiu Meng stayed silent, studying the Divine Tailor's demeanor with unnerving…

From ancient times till now, the Eastern Continent had seen its fair share of shooting stars. But all paled when compared to the Divine Tailor. Three months. Three months was all it took for him to establish a business empire that threatened to take over the Eastern Continent's entire economy. Now, even those elderly Supreme Clarity ancients tried to curry favors, sending daughters, granddaughters and all female descendants of outstanding looks and temperaments to sway the Divine Tailor…

It was one thing that the Silkshifter God's Abode required reservations, another that just to set foot inside the building, one had to pay a 100,000 spirit stone fee. The main entrance aside, four additional entrances also had waiting lines of their own, each over 200-meters long, and fielding about 440 people. This meant that about 2,220 people waited outside at all times, and this of course didn't include the people already inside. The Silkshifter God's Abode was open 12 hours a day. Peak…

He thanked fate for giving him an opportunity to escape death and swore to use the knowledge gleaned from the River of Time to plan his comeback. However, the time above the River was like a journey through eternal limbo. After 10,000 years of going through myriad variations of the future, yet still finding events that replayed regardless of the road taken, Qiu Meng despaired. 'The son is terrible, but the mother even worse. How to save the world, how to save your own, when with one wrong…

In the cultivation world, the ratio between the practitioner's age and their cultivation realm determined youth. So while the two seemed about the same age, decades separated them — on the surface at least. The two youths, Qiu Chen and Zi Zuixian watched the lively streets with mixed feelings. On the one hand, the colors, music and dances, the exotic treasure shops and beauties all around, seduced their eyes. But on the other, the depraved practices, slave auctions, drugs and brothels,…

Over the past three months, Xinzi's new avatar, the Divine Tailor, created many businesses, businesses that relied on world chaos and destructive tendencies such as greed, wrath, gluttony and so on, to make massive profits. However, Xinzi had his religious future to consider, and couldn't allow the world to see him as the self-serving profiteer that he really was. To prevent the bad rep, he rebranded the Dark Chamber of Commerce into the Enlightened Bank — an institution that used its…
