Chapter 115: The Filial Son

"No!"

Ending the simulation, Rhett turned back to the Deadheart Grass field and continued harvesting the magic plants. The fading light of the display lingered in his mind, and he spent a moment organizing his thoughts.

Perhaps it was because the Darkfeather Eagle Range hunting loop was almost closed. After this, until heading to the Canyon Defense Line next year, the trajectory had hardly changed. The only significant differences were in the hunts for the Darkfeather Eag...

Chapter 114: Capturing the Night Cats

"Father, what do you mean?" Rilai's eyes showed a hint of confusion.

Rhett's thoughts shifted, and he asked, "Rilai, you were watching earlier. Do you remember the path and flight trajectory of that Dark Marked Eagle after it was hit by the Earth Spike?"

"Yes, I remember it clearly."

Hearing this confident reply, a confident smile returned to Rhett's face. He said, "Quick, describe its flight path!"

Rilai nodded, though he didn't fully understand why his father ...

Chapter 113: Leaving the Darkfeather Eagle Behind!

Blood spilled across the sky, and several blood-red feathers floated down. With one wing crippled, the Windfeather Sparrow lost its balance, wobbling unsteadily in the air, its form beginning to plummet.

Rhett couldn't let such an opportunity slip by. He immediately cast another earth spike, which shot through the air and pierced the Windfeather Sparrow's chest, directly impaling its heart. What would have been a highly difficult maneuver for most was effortlessly executed by R...

Chapter 112: An Old Friend, Makoff

Rhett narrowed his eyes slightly as he carefully read the screen in front of him. After a moment, his eyes flickered with understanding, fully grasping the information. Although this simulation ended in death, just like the last one, he didn't mind at all.

After all, the purpose of the simulation was to serve reality. Even if he died in the simulation, as long as he gained useful information, that was enough.

Sometimes, to ensure safety in reality, certain actions wouldn'...

Chapter 111: The Second Innate Spell

"We understand, Father!" Thales said with a gleam in his eyes. "Could it be that the potion you took was of the Sacred Domain level? I once read a novel where the main character, a mage, was being hunted and fell off a cliff, only to find a Sacred Domain bloodline potion. After that, his cultivation speed skyrocketed, and he easily got revenge on those who had wronged him! It was really exciting!"

The more Thales spoke, the brighter his eyes became, and his tone grew more anima...

Chapter 120: Carving the Pest-Killing Array

Of course, the carving wasn’t done directly on the array disc but rather on the layer of spiritual energy that hovered above it.

Lin Xiao had already memorized the diagram for the Pest-Killing Array earlier in the morning when he carefully studied that section of the book. Ever since reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, Lin Xiao had noticed that his memory had significantly improved. Remembering basic things like the Pest-Killing Array had become...

Chapter 119: Sect Leader Senior Brother

At this moment in the cultivation room, some were meditating with closed eyes, while others were intensely focused on studying their cultivation techniques. No one noticed Lin Xiao as he quietly entered.

Sitting around Lin Da You, Mo Yuanjiao and Mo Shiwei were diligently cultivating the Peach Blossom Void Technique because that’s what Lin Da You was practicing. A few days ago, Mo Yuanjiao had noticed that Lin Da You seemed to be new to the technique as ...

Chapter 118: Pest-Killing Formation

Returning to the pile of soil behind the sect hall, Lin Xiao finally had all the materials ready to begin synthesizing the Artifact Forging Hall and the Array Formation Hall!

Since Ironhead wasn’t around to help, Lin Xiao had to load the soil into his storage by himself before opening the Building Synthesizer. He carefully measured out the materials, calculating the required amounts.

Given that artifact forging required m...

Chapter 117: The Star-Moon Hammer

It seemed that in order to complete the tasks of constructing the Artifact Forging Hall and Array Formation Hall, Lin Xiao needed to first find a way to obtain a spirit hammer, artifact cauldron, carving knife, and array disk.

The carving knife and array disk might not be too difficult to acquire, but the spirit hammer and artifact cauldron posed a bigger challenge. It was unlikely that his grandfather's small ...

Chapter 116: The Completion of the Talisman Crafting Room

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he didn’t immediately start synthesizing the building. Instead, he opened the Item Synthesizer.

When he had bought paper in the county town, he had also purchased a brush, preparing for the synthesis he was about to do. He already had ink, so there was no need to buy that.

As for the inkstone, he had found a stall selling various stones during his wanderings in the town. Since few people in the town were willing to spend money on stones...

Chapter 115: Irrigation Spell

Immersed in studying his spells, Lin Dayou grabbed Lin Xiao’s arm and said, "Hey, Erlang, tell me, why was I able to use the Dust Removal Technique just fine the other day, but now it’s not working?"

Lin Xiao immediately spotted the issue and began teaching his father step by step.

When Lin Yun returned from the Lin family’s old house, he saw his father happily admiring a pile of perfectly clean farming tools.

"Ah! My precious tools are finally clean!"

S...

Chapter 114: Do You Enjoy Life Here?

Feeling the remaining spiritual energy in his body, Lin Xiao clicked his tongue in amazement. Extracting just a few hundred spirit stones had consumed nearly one-tenth of his spiritual power! This meant that even if he worked tirelessly, at most, he could only extract about five thousand spirit stones before completely depleting his energy. And once his energy was spent, he’d need to meditate for quite some time to recover.

Being a miner truly wasn’t easy.

Realizing t...

Chapter 113: Sharpening the Axe

Curiosity piqued, Lin Xiao quickened his pace, urging Fuzi and Tuzi to follow him deeper into the village.

As they passed through the village, the villagers who had been gossiping under the large tree fell silent, watching the trio intently. Once they had passed, the chatter resumed, even louder than before.

It was now the afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly, growing hotter and more intense as summer approached.

After spending the morning cultivating, Lin Da...

Chapter 112: Returning to the Village

In the following days, besides cultivating, Lin Xiao and his companions were busy selling and buying goods in the county town.

Since the three of them were still young, they were cautious not to attract too much attention by selling too much expensive pine soot ink at once, lest they tempt thieves. They disguised themselves and specifically sought out the back doors of large households.

They didn’t sell directly to the masters of the house but rather to the stewards or ...

Chapter 111: Accepting Disciples

As Mo Yuanjiao looked at Lin Dayou again, he suddenly felt a deep sense of respect. No wonder he is the father of a sect leader!

This sect leader’s father must be like those mysterious figures described in stories—an ordinary-looking person who is actually a powerful figure capable of great feats.

Though this senior appeared to be only in his thirties, he must have witnessed countless changes in the world by now.

Despite his noble status, he dre...

Chapter 210: Zhang Zide

As the red glow settled on the names, the matchup list updated, revealing Lin Qian and Zhang Li's portraits. Their cultivation levels were displayed as well.

Lin Qian: Void-Fragmentation Realm, sixth stage.

Zhang Li: Void-Fragmentation Realm, floating stage.

Seeing the displayed cultivation levels, many spectators shook their heads with amusement, confident that this match would be a foregone conclusion.

Some even took delight in the misfortune of the Eastern Br...

Chapter 209: Preparing to Go On Stage

As the nominal leader of the entire Eight-Armed Sea Tribe, Zhang Tianxin's cultivation level was unfathomable. Rumor had it that he had surpassed the Awakening Realm.

After Zhang Tianxin stood up, he began to deliver some formal remarks for the clan assembly, including welcoming the numerous human allies.

However, the most important part of his speech was the explanation of the rules and restrictions for the competition.

The rules were simple and straightforward.

Chapter 208: Zhang Tianxin

At noon, Lin Qian and his group left their temporary residence and headed to the arena.

Around the arena, observation platforms had been set up in advance so that spectators could clearly view the matches.

These platforms were large, floating shells, suspended in the water, with seating and an array of fruits and snacks placed on them.

At this moment, Lin Qian and his companions were seated on one of these platforms, quietly waiting for the competition to begin.

Chapter 207: Chain Explosions

After diving into the water, Lin Qian followed closely behind Zhang Nianxin as they descended into the depths.

However, unlike the holy city of the Eight-Armed Sea Tribe's main clan, the venue for this clan assembly wasn't located deep in the ocean. Instead, it was only a few dozen feet below the surface.

As soon as Lin Qian entered the water, he could clearly see the massive coral island in the distance, with various buildings and figures moving about.

Since this was...

Chapter 206: The Sea Tribe's Small World

"Could that be Xiao Qian's Huaxia Empire?" In Linhai Prefecture, Ye Xin looked up at the sky, murmuring to herself.

While others might not understand what they were witnessing, Ye Xin knew that the massive planetary vision in the sky was Lin Qian's Huaxia Empire.

Lin Qian had once told her that the Huaxia Empire occupied an entire planet by itself.

When they were younger, Lin Qian often shared fascinating stories with her, including tales of a round world where people...

Chapter 205: The National Destiny of the Huaxia Empire

A blood alliance differs from a normal alliance in that it establishes a hierarchy.

For example, if the Eight-Armed Sea Tribe proposes a blood alliance with the Huaxia Empire, the Huaxia Empire would be the dominant party, and the Eight-Armed Sea Tribe would be the subordinate.

The relationship would resemble that of a vassal and a lord.

Once the blood alliance is formed, Zhang Nianxin's Eastern Branch would become a vassal of the Huaxia Empire, giving Lin Qian the au...

Chapter 204: Blood Alliance

"No need to rush; this can be something we trade with your tribe in the future. As for Zhang Qi's cultivation method and the potion, consider them gifts to demonstrate their effects," Lin Qian said, waving his hand at Zhang Nianxin, who looked eager.

Hearing that Lin Qian was willing to trade, Zhang Nianxin breathed a sigh of relief. If Lin Qian had refused to trade, things would have been much more difficult. But since he was open to the idea, negotiations would go more smoothly...

Chapter 203: Hehehe

Indeed, the Eastern Branch’s business in the west had been completely cut off by the Northern Branch.

Due to the holy land's barrier, it had caused numerous inconveniences.

But now, things were different. With an ally like the Huaxia Empire, it didn't matter whether they reclaimed their western business or not.

After all, the profits from trading with the Huaxia Empire would be far greater.

Not only that, but with the specialized battleships provided by the Hu...

Chapter 202: Cloud Sea Sect

Lin Qian's gaze was not directed at the Eight-Armed Sea Tribe's Northern Branch members, as Zhang Qi had thought, but rather at the humans among them.

Unlike Zhang Nianxin's Eastern Branch, where Lin Qian was the only human in the group, the Northern Branch's human contingent had over thirty members.

Among those thirty, one person's aura was particularly powerful, clearly having broken through to the Awakening Realm, far beyond the Life and Death Realm.

This man appea...

Chapter 201: Baffling Puzzles

The holy city of the Eight-Armed Sea Tribe's main clan was even more magnificent and exotic compared to the holy city of Zhang Nianxin's branch clan.

Being able to witness more diverse scenery, Lin Qian was naturally delighted.

Moreover, arriving here also meant that there was a possibility of finding clues about his parents.

The specially-made battleship stopped in a designated area before reaching the Coral Islands.

"Your Majesty Lin, our specially-made battle...

Chapter 360: Xun Wenruo's Thoughts

"Xiaozhi, what's going on with you?" Chen Xi reined in his cold smile and looked at Fazheng.

"Take a look at this report and my analysis," Fazheng said solemnly as he handed over some documents to Chen Xi.

After quickly skimming through the documents, Chen Xi passed them to Jia Xu. "Wenhe, you should take a look at this too. So, you're saying that Chen Gongtai has made a move? That shouldn't be possible; he's under Xun Wenruo's watchful eye. It's not that easy to act withou...

Chapter 359: Lords, Clans, and the People

Chen Xi paused and silently closed the documents. He suddenly recalled that, in the original history, Mount Tai was supposed to have fallen under Cao Cao’s control. This led to multiple battles between Cao Cao and Tao Qian, sparked by various alliances with Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, ultimately making them mortal enemies. Under such circumstances, there was no way Tao Qian would have ever handed over Xu Province to Cao Cao.

In this timeline, however, Liu Bei occupied Mount Tai, pr...

Chapter 358: Strategies of the Court and Schemes of the Lords

After Liu Bei departed, Chen Xi finished assigning tasks to everyone and then focused on calming down Chen Lan and Fan Jian, reassuring them so that they wouldn’t worry too much about the upcoming war.

“What are you doing, Kongming?” Chen Xi frowned as he saw the mess Zhuge Liang had made in his study.

“Studying the current situation of the world,” Zhuge Liang replied without looking up. “I want to demonstrate my capabilities.”

“Oh?” Chen Xi curiousl...

Chapter 357: Rules and Regulations

"Not good!" Li Zheng, seeing Zhao Yun charging at him with a cold expression, wasted no time in pulling out a talisman—an item given to him by his elder cousin for protection. Before Zhao Yun's silver-blue sword energy could reach him, the talisman activated, and Li Zheng's form split into dozens of shadows, scattering in all directions at an incredible speed.

"A secret technique?" Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, then his eyes flashed with anger. He grasped his Dragon Gallant ...

Chapter 356: The Defeat of Cao Chun

Zhao Yun repeatedly tested Cao Chun's formation, but he never attempted a direct assault. Similarly, Cao Chun found himself helpless against the White Horse Cavalry's agility and swiftness. Even more frustrating, their arrows had a longer range than his own, leaving Cao Chun feeling incredulous.

Cao Chun finally understood the true strength of Gongsun Zan's White Horse Cavalry that had swept through the land. This realization struck him, especially as he considered the protection...
