I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 507 - 5: The Sense of Mortal Danger!

"You actually look down on our Xirong Divine Craftsman. Do you know what kind of great man we rely on for the prosperity of the Immortal Path?"

Wu Qing is obviously a die-hard fan of the Xirong Academy:

"Every day, when I see the statue of the great man on the square, holding a hammer, I lament the heaviness of those centuries-old years and the hardships of the common people!!"

Su Yuniang feigned confusion: "So powerful, then tell me more about how amazing Xi Rong is?"

Wu Qing wasn’t afraid of dying; anyway, the Dharma Aspect wasn’t afraid of death, he began to brag about the changes in the Nine-State.

He must let the opponent from the ancient Dragon Palace tomb know that the era of the ancients has changed!

How dare you look down on our idol?

He kept narrating:

"... That’s how it is, they lie dormant, secretly accomplishing earth-shattering feats! One creates the Sun and Moon, forges the Immortal Ship, erects the Defense Tower, breaks Human God conspiracies, suppresses ancient forbidden zones, subdues Saints in the Imperial Mausoleum, sweeping the world without a rival. You must know, back then they weren’t even adept at combat!"

"Hmph, say more."

Su Yuniang showed a disdainful expression, but inside, her heart was wildly pleased with the continuous narration by the other. Isn’t it too delightful?

She had no intention of enjoying this alone, having already secretly activated the Communication Token to let the small blacksmiths on the mountain hear these glorious achievements of the past century!

We have become martyrs in the textbooks!

The little blacksmiths were also listening fascinatedly, dancing with joy.

The common people worship them; achieving glorious feats in history is the greatest acknowledgment for their blacksmithing!

And Ning Zheng, after listening, gradually understood the current situation.

"Back then, Xin Xichen indeed seized the opportunity I left behind, using the Square Cauldron I forged to suppress the Imperial Mausoleum!"

Xin Xichen regaining control over the world was the best thing.

If others ascend, his Ximen metropolis might not be preserved, and might even fail to develop such a vast enterprise!

And next, the obvious task after his emergence is to contact Ximen, to announce to the outside world that he will soon emerge again and become a top noble family of the Nine-State!

A top noble family in the Nine-State, all backed by an accumulation of over a hundred thousand years of heritage and relationships.

But he is confident in succeeding!

In that previous battle, various forces in the Nine-State owed him a favor, leaving behind various bonds and political heritage, coupled with immense prestige. Once he emerges, he can practically climb to the top of the Nine-State’s Holy Land!

He definitely doesn’t have the thought of hiding, sitting idle.

Meaningless patience and lone development is the stupidest; with a mountain of treasures and so many favors, how could he not use them??

But how to reemerge is a matter for deliberation.

He doesn’t dare contact the Sword Fairy directly.

You can never be too cautious.

He has two things to do.

1. Personally go out, take a trip to Ximen City.

Safety in public opinion doesn’t mean safety in private.

Perhaps the Sword Fairy and others have long been sidelined, controlled already?

What he needs to do is blend into the city, watch the Sword Fairy, Dizzy, and others from afar, ensuring there are no issues with the Qi Fortune Value.

2. Check the safety of the Communication Token and reestablish contact with the Sword Fairy.

Back in the day, the Communication Token was safe; it doesn’t mean it’s safe now!

With the big explosion of the era now, many Immortal Artifacts can be forged. Who knows what chaotic tracking Earth Vein Divine Artifacts will pop up?

Ning Zheng has always judged people’s hearts with the worst malice.

If he were among the group of blacksmiths and various noble families, the first thing he would do upon researching an Immortal Artifact would be to create one that could monitor the Earth Vein.

Intelligence is the most important!

How do you know that none of the great noble families in the Nine-State haven’t come up with this thing?

Sigh!

Ning Zheng made a decision:

"Ultimately, caution is needed. The sly old folks of the Human God kind aren’t few."

"Nowadays, our fame is immense, praised across the world, favored by the people, but excessive fame instead makes me increasingly worried."

Ning Zheng doesn’t believe that over these years, with the Manor Master suddenly dying, no one’s targeting Xirong forces during weak periods.

Everyone knows the Nine-State Cauldron was forged by them.

Even wants to find him, the forger, to inquire if there is any hidden door of the Nine-State Cauldron, whether this Emperor can be them!

Forging the Nine-State Cauldron to save the world also actually pushed him into the limelight.

Even now, Xin Xichen might suspect them, thinking there are hidden hands left in the Nine-State Cauldron, with various problems.

After all, an Emperor, the Jade Seal in their hand might contain various mechanisms, their imperial power could be threatened at any time; how could they be magnanimous?

Even though Xin Xichen, this gentle scholar, used to get along well with them, never underestimate an Emperor.

Emperor’s tactics, unpredictable in anger!

Ning Zheng doesn’t know whether the true or false Xin Xichen made him change his temperament, but being cautious is never wrong.

Not just Xin Xichen, if any Nine-State forces get a chance to catch him, they will undoubtedly strike immediately.

To eliminate us, inherit our legacy, then replace our political heritage, appear again under the name "Xirong" before the world, and gather public support.

To put it unpleasantly, just the term "Xirong" represents supreme status, as high as a Saint! The prestige might even threaten the Saint of a Dynasty!

Ning Zheng sighed long: "Caution is wise."

Still the same saying, the greater the opportunity, the greater the danger.

He’s still clear-headed and grounded, seeing not just the opportunity but also the risks.

Slight carelessness leads to disaster.

And this is on the basis of Ning Zheng only exposing the Nine-State Cauldron.

If further exposed, if the Eternal Sun and Moon also have issues, secretly left a counterfeit, the joke would be immense.

He tampered with both of the Nine-State’s two Eternal Divine Artifacts.

What’s left is the Earth Vein!

"I really am wicked, led astray by the little blacksmiths..." Ning Zheng sighed.

Then, Ning Zheng also looked into the world’s landscape.

Currently, noteworthy news across the Nine-State concerns two points: 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

One, originally, various Divine Beast races rarely interacted with the Human Race. Now they’ve completely emerged to vie for the epoch of the Immortal Path’s prosperity.

Two, shadows behind the Nursery harbor a Ghost King.

The second news surprised Ning Zheng a bit.

"Back then during the attack, those guys didn’t appear." Ning Zheng frowned, "But, they dared not show up in those circumstances."

The specialties of the Ghost King lie in two aspects.

1. Double the lethality against Ghosts, the king of Ghosts, can consume ghosts, accelerating cultivation.

2. Stronger in the Same Tier.

Back then, even a slightly stronger Ghost King couldn’t match Ning Zheng, who had gathered seven Saints and hundreds of Sect Leader-grade opponents.

Hiding at that time was expected.

On closer thought, it’s normal; with such long history, there’ll always be awakened Ghost Kings.

Actually, there’s nothing to it. Essentially, a Ghost King is a resurrected life; some were not highly qualified pre-awakening, and upon awakening, their qualifications remain unimpressive. Although they can speed up cultivation by consuming ghosts, if their limit was naturally set, speeding up won’t enhance anything significantly.

The most they can reach is One Heart Realm; those who surpass the Self-Transformation Realm are rare.

However, as times change, Ghost Kings have been strengthened. Ghost Kings now have average Immortal Spirit Roots... which is a bit abnormal! Qualification greatly improved! Can exceed the Self-Transformation Realm, have a chance to become Immortal!

"Xin Xichen shouldn’t be brutally beaten by new Ghost Kings hidden in the tombs."

Ning Zheng thought this through but didn’t concern himself:

"If time permits, grow Three Flowers and visit the Capital City to see the Princess Xin’e after a hundred years, see what extent this new Mother of Non-Life has reached."

"If I’m not afraid of dying, grow Three Flowers and visit the depths of the Imperial Palace to take a look at the Nine-State Cauldron."

The Nine-State Cauldron is also his Embers Avatar; of course, it can control from afar just like Princess Xin’e growing Three Flowers remotely.

But even so, he dares not do so.
