Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!-Chapter 1312 - 304: Yuan Sanjia: Chen 94, I’ve Brought You a Grand Gift
Upon hearing this, Yuan Sanjia said: "You are indeed clever, I see you as a promising chess piece, how could I let you fall behind easily."
Chen Jie was not bothered at all by Yuan Sanjia calling him a chess piece; in this world, who isn’t a chess piece to someone else?
Even Yuan Sanjia is, in some sense, a chess piece to Chen Jiusi.
Although a chess piece is at others’ disposal, once it grows strong, it can become a player. If not, it’s likely because it’s not strong enough.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie looked at Yuan Sanjia and said: "Mr. Yuan, you are correct. If we’re playing chess, it is only interesting when the forces are evenly matched, isn’t it?"
Yuan Sanjia said: "I cast a trigram, your opportunities lie to the west."
The west?
Chen Jie thought for a moment and said: "Wushan’s Witch God inheritance?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Sanjia said: "You are truly clever, you grasp the point quickly."
Yuan Sanjia said: "Indeed, this inheritance within Wushan is a mechanism capable of rocking the world; if you grasp it well, it offers a great elevation for you."
Chen Jie asked: "What enhancements does it offer?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Sanjia said: "I will not delve much into it, only tell you about one thing: Wushan is an ancient treasure trove, harboring countless treasures, among which lies one called the Golden Headed Crow."
"With this, decide for yourself."
Yuan Sanjia said this while clapping his hands, then stood up and said: "That’s all I have to say."
"Oh, right, I almost forgot."
Yuan Sanjia said: "Recently, you don’t need to worry about the affairs in Huangzhou Prefecture, the Ruyang King is too preoccupied to intervene."
Chen Jie looked at Yuan Sanjia and asked: "Why?"
Yuan Sanjia said: "Didn’t the Ruyang King use a fake Wu Mu’s Legacy to deceive Sea Dragon Fang Guozhen’s son and daughter?"
"And then issued the Jianghu Kill Order, these two nearly lost their lives on the road. Upon knowing this, Fang Guozhen was furious and has led Divine Dragon Sect elites to land directly at Hangzhou, advancing towards Longxing Prefecture."
"The Ruyang King is now overwhelmed, struggling against Fang Guozhen, utterly unavailable to bother with your trivial matters."
"Besides, now the entire Hubei Road is tacitly acknowledged as Peng Yingyu’s territory, the Ruyang King dares not wage war on both Peng Yingyu and Fang Guozhen at the same time, thus he has no interest in provoking you at present."
"Additionally, he has already dispatched a Fusang assassin to kill you, meaning he cannot send troops across the border, ensuring your safety."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief, immediately cupping his fists and said: "Thank you, Senior Yuan."
Yuan Sanjia said: "Don’t thank me, there are only a few with the emperor aura in this world, I must cherish them, alright, I have things to attend to, let’s meet again next time."
With that, Yuan Sanjia stood up, leaped off the high platform, then lightly tapping the ground with his staff, in one step crossing three to five meters, surprisingly employing the skill of Shrinking Land to Inches, disappearing in no time.
Leaving Chen Jie alone on the high platform, lost in thought.
The visit from Yuan Sanjia this time brought great impact to him, simultaneously granting Chen Jie new insights and perspectives on things.
Chen Jie contemplated the news Yuan Sanjia had brought to him.
The first was this era of great contention; Yuan Sanjia mentioned massive changes in the world, this is a time of great contention, no matter whether martial arts or power, all are akin to sailing against the current, not moving forward means regression.
Moreover, according to Yuan Sanjia, the world is opening up, potentially allowing for the emergence of the Land Immortal Realm once more, possibly reshaping the world order, although an earthly immortal couldn’t withstand a nation single-handedly.
Yet a nation would surely have no reason to provoke an earthly immortal.
A single earthly immortal holds crucial importance in future struggles for dominance; any power possessing one would certainly not only double its overall strength!
Just like Zhang Sanfeng sitting on Wudang Mountain, even the Daqian Royal Family has to detour around him; this underscores the significance of an earthly immortal.
As a martial artist, who wouldn’t yearn to ascend to the pinnacle of martial arts, to become an earthly immortal?
Chen Jie understands, the upcoming world is destined to be tumultuous.
Next is Chen Jie’s sense of urgency, whether it’s the assassin sent by the Ruyang King or Zhu Yuanzhang, under his protagonist aura, receiving aid from Master Kudu, further advancing into the Molten Furnace Realm.
These all exert immense pressure on Chen Jie, thus he must enter the Molten Furnace Realm before them.
Only by taking the lead first, as Yuan Sanjia rightly said, falling behind means perpetually lagging, never catching up; this era of great contention leaves no room for rest.
Finally, there’s the Witch God inheritance mentioned by Yuan Sanjia in Wushan.
This Witch God inheritance doesn’t quite tempt Chen Jie, for after entering the Dragon Realm, Chen Jie is aware that his martial arts path is singular, and it requires resolute pursuit to travel far.
Chen Jie has already laid solid foundations with the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique, accepting this Witch God inheritance would necessitate purging his previous martial arts foundations, altering to the Witch God system.
Though the Witch God system is powerful, even once producing top-five Witch Gods on the Heavenly List, this path is unsuitable for Chen Jie, nor does he perceive this alleged Witch God inheritance as superior to his own Shennong inheritance.
He also has no intention of altering his cultivation technique.
However, he is very intrigued by the Golden Headed Crow Yuan Sanjia mentioned; the Golden Headed Crow is one of the three main ingredients in refining the Heavenly Yang Pill.
Chen Jie then took out the elixir recipe he obtained from the martial arts tournament in Longxing Prefecture.
This elixir recipe was awarded by Master Kudu at the tournament, originally assumed Zhu Yuanzhang would win, it was indirectly meant for Zhu Yuanzhang; unexpectedly, in the end, it was Chen Jie who won, so it was begrudgingly given to Chen Jie, tricking himself.
