Though Colorful Wing Supercity could rely on myriad defenses and a unique strategic location, out of an abundance of precautions, Xinzi set up a mechanism to warn the citizens of potential invasions. The Warning Bells only echoed when foreigners attempted to force open a spatial rift into Colorful Wing Supercity. But if said foreigners also brought killing intent with them, then the War Drums would echo as well, forming what Xinzi labeled the Ominous Orchestra. At the moment, Xinzi…-

The nine provinces' fall led to an unsettling blend of ups and downs. Spirits and human experts that didn't get slaughtered in the fight fled their hometowns to reinforce other provinces. On the upside, these reinforcements strengthened the provinces' defenses and reduced the speed of beast conquests. However, those destitute Spirit Nobles and Hegemons weren't fighting just to protect the East from further conquests. Their services came at premium prices. At first, most just wanted help to…

But for youths like Qiu Chen and Zi Zuixian, who offered both outrageous potential and battle-prowess, warlord factions were willing to pay hefty prices, willing to move mountains and seas to recruit these gems. In a flash, mouth-watering offers assembled at the two's feet. Without hesitation, Qiu Chen declined them all—pledging undying loyalty to the Nameless Sword Mountain. Zi Zuixian took a softer approach: "The Bloodstone Patriarch and I have irreconcilable…

The Zhenwu clan's plan was simple: let the world fight. Make minimal moves and let other factions compete while Zhenwu Shenquan recovered and made sweeping breakthroughs through the Demon Sealing Pagoda. The Warlord Seals helped this goal impeccably, fueling the wolfish ambitions of various clans and factions to usher in an era of gangs and warlords. Wherever Daji's hordes reared their head, cultivator coalitions would form in response, with predetermined arrangements on how to split the land…

Still, in his bid to play the loving father, Shenzhuo gave Xinzi two pieces of crucial information. First, there could only be one Glorious Eye of Heaven and one Dark Eye of Heaven. The two stemmed from the soul, and should exist in any body that the owner's Divine Soul inhabited. This meant that the Glorious Eye of Heaven in Xinzi's Zhen-body was, either a copy based on Shenzhuo's genetics, or an incomplete product still in the process of awakening. Second, without the Swallowing Skill, one…

"UGH!" With each breath that Xinzi took in, Heaven's skin paled, pulsing veins and discomfort twisted her face, and she clutched at her chest. "S...stop!" Heaven stretched one hand out, urging Xinzi to end the breathing exercise. Of course, he didn't listen. Joke, if he could make Heaven feel pain by just breathing, why the hell would he stop? Heaven's groans and grimaces galvanized Xinzi's exercise, and he breathed harder. The energies that powered the artificial divine world…

Heaven...didn't have all the answers. And the one who now meddled with her plans was the primary cause of her weakened foresight. Clouds of mist poured out of the Nine-Jade Crown, coalescing into a white-robed figure, with lustrous silver hair, impeccable skin and soul-crushing handsomeness. "Heaven, as one of the Ancestral Origins of Life, how can you fall so low as to try to violate a boy by trillions of years your junior? And to even go as far as to use his mother's…

'Why? You will have more techniques. More abilities, true invulnerability, powers, options, I can even break your shackles. Why say no to the gate of absolute power?' "If you give me everything, what am I supposed to fight for? Take away the journey, and I cannot enjoy the ending. Heaven, I have no doubt that one day, I will break free from you and regain my emotions. In preparation for that day, I have to do my best to ensure that Xinzi returns to a world that he can enjoy without…

'It's Supreme and Unfeeling Grand Dao, but no, you don't have to bow.' Heaven replied in the same deadpan tone. "Supreme Grand Dao works. Unfeeling Grand Dao works. Why did you have to call it Supreme and Unfeeling Grand Dao?" 'Because it's Supreme and Unfeeling.' "But doesn't that sound awkward to you?" 'No.' "Well, it does to me, so I will go with Heavenly Dao. Can we please go with Heavenly Dao? I swear it would make everyone's life easier. After all, it's named…

Even Tusha couldn't believe that Qiu Meng's return would affect her so little. She only cared based on how it affected Xinzi's goals, not for any loyalty to the Eunuch Immortal. "I already know where he is. I also know where Miejue, Haoyou and Nieyuan are. If you want to, you can go find them first. But they're not like you. With Qiu Meng back, they would never accept to join our side. So help them join him, as a show of goodwill. Let Qiu Meng get the Divine, Spirit and Holy Tomes. Let him…
