Talk About Bragging, How Do You Really Have The Qualifications Of The Great Emperor?

Chapter 22: Ji Zidian: Don't call me senior sister, call me junior sister~

"Never mind."

Wang Xiu sneered, "It's none of my business. It's not like I'm the one who broke the seal!"

"With this crack, the Yellow Springs water can flow endlessly. What's flowing is not the Yellow Springs, but spirit stones and gold. Only a fool would have a problem with money!"

After saying that, Wang Xiu muttered as he put away the bottle and turned to leave the cave, closing the stone door.

The vast cave fell into silence once again.

...

Boom~

After a moment, the stone door opened again.

The young man leaped into the muddy Yellow Springs pool and took out four large pieces of bluestone from his storage bag.

The Purple Cloud Knife emitted a dazzling burst of lightning.

Mysterious patterns were engraved on the four bluestones, vividly depicting four divine beasts.

"With my essence and blood, I offer this sacrifice!"

"Four divine beasts, stabilize the universe!"

The young man tightly gripped the blade of the Purple Cloud Knife, and drop by drop, his blood containing the power of the origin fell onto the four bluestones.

Immediately, the four large bluestones trembled, and faint sounds of dragons, phoenixes, and tigers could be heard emanating from them.

The young man's face turned pale, he clasped his hands together, and shouted loudly, "Seal!"

In an instant, a magnetic force seemed to exist between the four bluestones and the stone platform, directly adhering them to the surroundings of the universe-stabilizing stone platform. The auras of blue, white, red, and black surged into the stone platform.

As if receiving new energy supply, the stone platform emitted a brilliant light.

The surface cracks slowly healed, and the Yellow Springs water that was still seeping out completely ceased.

With the power of the four divine beasts, this seal was temporarily repaired.

There won't be any problems for a short time.

Phew~

Wang Xiu wiped his sweat and staggered, "I lost money on this deal. But..."

"I have already memorized the coordinates of this passage to the underworld."

"When my strength increases a bit more, I will definitely use this passage to go to the underworld and drain the Yellow Springs!"

"Even the King of Hell can't stop me, I guarantee it!"

After saying that, he climbed out of the Yellow Springs pool and took out several jade bottles from his storage bag. He reluctantly opened the bottle caps and poured the Yellow Springs water back into the pool.

He didn't stop until the turbid Yellow Springs completely submerged the five stones. Wang Xiu carefully put away the jade bottles and stored them back in his storage bag.

Boom~

Just as Wang Xiu finished everything, a loud thunderous sound suddenly resounded in the void, followed by a brilliant golden light appearing.

The golden light shattered and turned into countless raindrops, merging into Wang Xiu's body. It was the same kind of merit rain as when he killed the tiger demon and saved the souls.

However, the amount of merit that descended this time was many times larger than before, not just dozens or hundreds of times, but at least a light to moderate rain compared to the previous drizzle.

Boom~

Boom~

Under the abundant blessing of merit, Wang Xiu's cultivation directly jumped from the Foundation Building Fifth Layer to the Foundation Building Seventh Layer.

The rewards in terms of cultivation were only insignificant.

After merging with this massive merit rain, Wang Xiu felt that his spiritual platform became extremely clear, and the laws of heaven and earth became much clearer in his eyes.

At this moment, he felt incredibly wise. Even without relying on the system's help, his cultivation and spellcasting would be twice as effective!

Hiss~

I didn't expect that repairing the seal of the underworld would have such benefits!

But thinking about it, it makes sense.

The laws of heaven and earth value order the most.

There is order in the mortal realm, and there is order in the underworld. Each has its own path.

If the passage to the underworld were to open, it would definitely severely disrupt the order of the mortal realm, which is not what the laws of heaven and earth want to see.

By strengthening the seal of the underworld passage and stifling the danger in its cradle, Wang Xiu may not know the benefits to all living beings, but the laws of heaven and earth know, and they will bestow rewards.

"The laws of heaven and earth are amazing!"

"The heavenly path is mighty and domineering!"

"Thank you, heavenly path, for the rain of merits!"

Wang Xiu grinned widely and couldn't help muttering to himself, "If I repair the seal of the underworld, will I receive a reward?"

"Will it reduce my merits if I shatter the Four Symbols Formation stones?"

"Or will it breed demonic energy?"

"What if I capture a wicked and evil Great Demon in the future, let him shatter the Four Symbols Formation stones, and then I repair them?"

"By then, the demonic energy will breed in him, and the merits will be added to me."

"Hehehe~"

"Doesn't that mean I can exploit an unlimited bug and continuously obtain the rain of merits?"

"Hehehe~"

Crack!

A purple thunderbolt struck directly three meters in front of Wang Xiu, making his scalp tingle.

Alright!

The heavenly path cannot be deceived. As a loyal follower of the Dao, I shouldn't exploit such a suicidal bug.

Once again, he bowed to the sky several times, expressing gratitude for the rain of merits provided by the heavenly path. After tidying up, Wang Xiu walked towards the exit of the stone cave.

In the pitch-black tunnel, the voice of the young man echoed incessantly.

"I'm conflicted."

"I've only collected a little over 800 tons of Stygian water. I'm afraid it won't be enough!"

"Hmm~"

"I almost forgot, I can come back to retrieve it after using it. This cave isn't going anywhere."

"Anyway, what the heavenly path cares about is probably just the seal of the underworld. It definitely won't pay attention to things like nourishing the Soul Lotus with Stygian water."

"Or maybe..."

"When the Soul Lotus on Spirit Turtle Peak is transplanted and thriving, I'll take away all the Stygian water here and cover the seal with ordinary mud. It should have the same effect!"

"No, it's not the same!"

"After reinforcing the seal and taking away all the Stygian water, this will just be an ordinary stone cave. Who knows if there's an underworld passage beneath that mud?"

"By then, there won't be any treasures in the cave to attract attention."

"The seal will be even safer."

"Maybe..."

"The heavenly path might think I've done well and bestow me with more merits!"

"Hehehe~"

As if he had figured something out, the footsteps of the young man in the tunnel gradually became lighter.

...

Exiting the stone cave.

The communication jade pendant around Wang Xiu's waist instantly vibrated madly, all of them being communication requests from Ji Zidian. There were more than seventy of them, densely packed.

"It must be the concealed formation on the surface of the cave, which can shield the communication signal."

"That's why I haven't been able to receive any messages."

Wang Xiu smiled.

He sent his location to Ji Zidian through the communication jade pendant.

Whoosh!

After a moment.

A dazzling purple light shot out from the mountain and landed in front of Wang Xiu. If it wasn't Ji Zidian, who else could it be?

"Wang Xiu... senior brother!"

Looking at the young man in front of him, Ji Zidian's eyes instantly turned red, tears swirling in them.

At this moment, Wang Xiu.

Indeed, he looked quite disheveled. His pants were covered in yellow mud, and his upper body was splattered with mud, making his originally ethereal and elegant Dao robe look messy.

But that was secondary.

Ji Zidian keenly noticed that Wang Xiu's complexion was pale, indicating that his vitality had been damaged.

His palm was wrapped in gauze, and faintly visible were long bloodstains.

Although the Dao robe was intact and undamaged, after being soaked, one could clearly see traces of bloodstains all over Wang Xiu's body. Those should be wounds that had been recently inflicted.

Obviously!

In order to escape from the tiger demon and those fierce ghosts, senior brother had experienced fierce battles at regular intervals, suffering severe injuries and possibly nearing the end of his strength.

However.

To prevent me from worrying and feeling guilty, he still changed into a complete Dao robe, trying to cover up the injuries on his body.

Senior brother!

It's all for me that he endures such pain!
