Chapter 363: This is Fairness!
Chapter 363: This is Fairness!
The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator glanced at Qi Yuan and chuckled, "Let's open this door together, everyone."
At this moment, Qi Yuan turned to Ning Tao and whispered, "Go back and bring Ling Yi here. I think this place is more suitable for him."
"Okay," Ning Tao nodded, and her figure disappeared in an instant.
The Divine Infancy Cultivators present were slightly taken aback, and the Pure Red Masked Elder narrowed his eyes, his thoughts racing.
This young man actually dared to let his Dao companion leave.
The Divine Infancy Cultivators from the Heaven Overturning Plan Alliance were all rushing over here.
If they encountered each other, this female cultivator would undoubtedly die.
Of course, he didn't voice these thoughts.
The cultivators present didn't react to Ning Tao's departure.
Before entering the ruins, they needed to conceal their identities, fearing that other Divine Infancy Cultivators would learn about the existence of the ruins here.
Now, they couldn't wait for others to find out.
With the Sky Eye in hand, although they couldn't fully unleash its power yet, killing a few Divine Infancy Cultivators would be a piece of cake.
"Come on, together!"
Qi Yuan also clenched his fist.
A powerful force swept through the area.
The door that everyone had been unable to open earlier was instantly reduced to rubble.
The cultivators present were astonished, and they all looked at Qi Yuan with skepticism. After a moment, their figures dissipated and vanished.
Only the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator remained unmoved, feeling a bit anxious. He tentatively asked, "May I ask, who is the person you mentioned earlier, the one who can impart the understanding of the origin of the Dao?"
Qi Yuan looked at the Purple Robed man with a smile in his eyes, "Of course, it's my Avatar Number."
The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing quickened, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course, it's true," Qi Yuan's eyes held a smile, and there seemed to be a hint of nostalgia in his expression, "In the Flowwind Realm, in Wu Gui City..."
"Blood... Blood Lord!" The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator exclaimed, his body trembling uncontrollably.
Xie Tang, standing nearby, was bewildered, not quite understanding the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator's reaction.
The Plump Cultivator opened his mouth, looking surprised.
What's going on?
"You're the Blood Lord, the Blood Lord of the Flowwind Realm, the legendary figure who transmitted the Dao to ten thousand cultivators!" The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator was utterly shocked, his heart filled with terror.
Xie Tang looked at Qi Yuan, feeling a sense of absurdity.
Isn't he a Divine Infancy Cultivator?
How did he become a legendary Blood Lord who helps Divine Infancy Cultivators comprehend the origin?
The Plump Cultivator blinked.
Is this... a powerful figure? Could it be that after he dies and becomes a ghost, he can really find him?
Both of them felt their minds in turmoil, a sense of absurdity and incredulity.
Xie Tang even wondered if these two were putting on an act.
But if so, what was the point?
"Oh?" At that moment, Qi Yuan smiled enigmatically at the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator, "Are you one of the demons from the Ten Thousand Demons Realm who invaded the Flowwind Realm?"
"No, no, Senior, Blood Lord, I'm different from those demons!" The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator quickly explained, his expression filled with fear.
After all, the Blood Lord was a legendary figure.
Back then, ten thousand Supreme Realm cultivators emerged, and the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator, although he hadn't witnessed it himself, had heard about it from his seniors.
Even after thousands of years, it still felt like a nightmare in everyone's minds.
"How are you different?" Qi Yuan asked casually.
Qi Yuan had discovered the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator's identity at the Dao Discussion Conference, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.
"I'm one of the original demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Realm... a native demon!" The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator hurriedly explained, "In ancient times, the Ten Thousand Demons Realm belonged to us demons, but one day, all our ancestral demons disappeared without a trace."
The ancestral demons, the founders of the various demon races, each possessed the strength of a Dark Deity Realm cultivator.
The demon ancestors ruled over the Ten Thousand Demons Realm and voluntarily cut off communication with the heavens, refusing to ascend to the upper realm.
But in ancient times, something changed, and all the demon ancestors vanished without a trace.
Without the suppression of the demon ancestors, demons from the upper realm descended and occupied the Ten Thousand Demons Realm.
The original demons were all exterminated, becoming slaves, or being kept as livestock for the upper realm's resources.
Now, most of the ancient demons in the Ten Thousand Demons Realm are kept as livestock, and very few, like him, are hiding in mystic realms to cultivate to the Azure Mansion Realm.
Qi Yuan looked at the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator calmly, "Indeed, you are a bit different from them. Your cultivation path seems to have a touch of martial arts."
His nose didn't grow longer; the Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator was telling the truth.
His tone was also correct.
There was indeed a sense of martial arts about him.
The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator looked at Qi Yuan, swallowing nervously, "I don't know why, but I feel a sense of familiarity with you, Senior."
The Blood Lord was feared.
But he felt a sense of familiarity.
Qi Yuan smiled but didn't respond.
The humans in this world and the demons from the Mountain Sea Scroll had the same ancestor.
"I heard that the demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Realm have been inciting the Brilliant Star to conquer the Arching Star?" Qi Yuan mentioned casually.
"Senior, that has nothing to do with me. The demons occupying the Brilliant Star are from the upper realm!" The Azure Mansion Grand Cultivator quickly explained, afraid of being misunderstood by Qi Yuan.
"Oh." Qi Yuan didn't care at all, "Let's go in and take a look."
This control room wasn't very big, only a few square kilometers.
Inside, there were quite a few small rooms.
At this moment, all the rooms had been searched, but they were empty, not even a hair to be found.
It was clear that the items in this control room had already been taken away.
The Divine Infancy Cultivators who had entered first had gained nothing.
Everyone followed Qi Yuan and walked forward.
After approximately ten breaths of time, the group reunited with other cultivators inside.
These cultivators were all gazing forward, their eyes filled with greed.
In front of them, a glass-constructed cubic box floated in the air, crystal clear and flawless like immaculate white jade.
Its design was unmistakably that of a coffin.
"This coffin must be an ultimate treasure!"
"I wonder if there's someone lying inside..."
The Divine Infancy Cultivators noticed Qi Yuan and the others' arrival, but their eyes remained fixed on the coffin.
The coffin gave them a feeling that it was even more powerful than the Ancestor's ultimate treasure.
It seemed to be the most precious treasure within this mystic realm.
However, their weak spiritual power couldn't penetrate the coffin, and they were unaware of any presence within.
At this moment, Qi Yuan's eyes lit up with a smile, "This coffin is destined for me.
Since I entered the mystic realm and didn't take anything, taking this coffin shouldn't be an issue, right?
Isn't this fair? Who agrees, and who disagrees?"
Qi Yuan always upheld his morals and never took advantage of others.
Upon hearing this, the Pure Red Masked Elder scoffed, "You're quite the schemer."
The pale-faced female cultivator added, "You couldn't grab any resources, so now you're talking about fairness?"
Members of the Heaven Overturning Plan Alliance spoke up, "Before we came, we agreed that everything depends on one's abilities."
"Fellow cultivator, we're all Divine Infancy Cultivators. Don't you understand that there's no such thing as fairness in this world? Everything depends on one's..."
Most of the speakers were from the Heaven Overturning Plan Alliance.
As for the remaining Divine Infancy Cultivator, who had come alone, he didn't want to offend Qi Yuan, so he chose to remain silent.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan spoke softly, "If you don't want fairness, then... I'll grant your wish.
By the way, who agrees, and who disagrees?
For those who agree, there's still fairness.
For those who disagree, well... cultivation level takes priority."
The Pure Red Masked Elder couldn't help but sneer upon hearing this, "I disagree!"
"I disagree too!"
"Disagree!"
Instantly, the six Divine Infancy Cultivators from the Heaven Overturning Plan Alliance voiced their disagreement.
"I agree!" The Purple Mansion Grand Cultivator spoke up.
Xie Tang quickly followed, "I agree!"
The Plump Cultivator also hurriedly agreed, "I agree!"
The last Divine Infancy Cultivator, looking at the tense atmosphere between the two groups, showed a conflicted expression.
"We've all taken the Heart Demon Oath, wouldn't it be inappropriate to fight here?" he couldn't help but say.
"Haha, we've taken the oath, but you haven't!"
Just then, more than ten Divine Infancy Cultivators entered one after another, exuding powerful auras.
Seeing these unfamiliar Divine Infancy Cultivators, the solitary cultivator's face paled in fear.
The six cultivators who had just disagreed retreated and joined the new arrivals.
"Now you know what fairness is, right?"
The Pure Red Masked Elder was fearless.
They had sworn an oath not to fight within the mystic realm, but it didn't apply to the newcomers.
The Pure Red Masked Elder laughed wildly.
This time, their group of six had gained the most within the mystic realm.
Qi Yuan, the fool, had brought three others with him, not to explore the realm but to admire the murals instead.
Now, he wanted to claim the ultimate treasure at the realm's deepest part for himself, which was truly laughable.
At this moment, Xie Tang looked at Qi Yuan, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
Is he really the Blood Lord?
At the same time, she was also extremely cautious.
"I've studied nine years of compulsory education, so I understand what fairness is, and I also understand what peace means." Qi Yuan scanned the cultivators, "By the way, after you die, remember to thank me for giving you so many opportunities to show off in front of me.
In the book 'One Six One Nine One Book One Look No Mistake'!
Oh, I forgot, you're all wearing masks, so you have no face."
After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he looked at the group and gently blew a breath.
"This is fairness."
The breeze was so weak that it was almost imperceptible, not even as strong as a cat's yawn.
However, the twenty or so cultivators across from them had no ability to resist.
Or rather, time seemed to freeze for them at this moment.
The Ancestor's magical artifact, the Celestial Eye, all seemed so feeble under this breath, like tiny insects.
Crack!
The powerful Divine Infancy Cultivators in front of them shattered like wax figures... turning into dust in an instant.
This scene was extremely terrifying.
After all, they were Divine Infancy Cultivators, akin to human deities and mythical beings on land.
Yet, they couldn't withstand Qi Yuan's breath, clearly not on the same level.
Xie Tang forgot to breathe, and in that moment, she understood—this was the Blood Lord, the legendary powerhouse.
The Purple Mansion Grand Cultivator's face also paled in shock.
Because this Blood Lord was even stronger than the records indicated!
Perhaps, a single breath from him could kill even a Great Venerable!
At this time, Qi Yuan's gaze fell on the only cultivator without a group, "Do you agree, or do you disagree?"
The solitary cultivator trembled in fear, terrified.
"You seem to disagree, yet your expression is so unpleasant. Could it be that you only agree on the surface?"
"No, no, no!" The cultivator was so scared that he knelt on the ground, "My ancestors for eighteen generations agree."
Hearing this, Qi Yuan was satisfied.
"Fairness exists in the mortal world. As for this coffin, I'll respectfully decline.
"As Qi Yuan spoke, he turned his gaze towards the coffin."
"His eyes underwent a transformation at that moment."
"The coffin, which initially revealed no traces of its contents, gradually became clearer in his vision."
"Suddenly, a familiar face appeared in Qi Yuan's eyes."
"Is that her?"
To his surprise, he discovered a woman lying inside the coffin.
The woman's appearance bore a striking six or seven-tenths resemblance to someone he knew.
At that moment, Ning Tao appeared, asking, "Is there someone in this coffin?"
Ning Tao was accompanied by the Ling Yi robot.
"Yes, a woman," Qi Yuan replied, informing Ning Tao of what he had seen inside the coffin.
Ning Tao narrowed her eyes, her expression changing, "Could it be the female protagonist from the mural?"
"Most likely," Qi Yuan nodded.
"What a tragic and moving story, a pitiful person," the Fat Cultivator couldn't help but speak up.
Hearing this, Qi Yuan agreed, "She's been lying here for who knows how many years, she must have been so lonely."
Xie Tang, on the other hand, was a little confused; even the dead could feel lonely.
Qi Yuan spoke with a tone of sorrow, his expression resembling that of a middle-aged woman witnessing the plight of her wronged sister, "She's all alone, without a single relative or friend, sleeping in the midst of death, not even a loved one by her side. It's enough to make anyone who hears it cry and anyone who sees it heartbroken."
"I'm a very compassionate person. Today, I'll be generous and give her a grandmother!"
"Huh?" Xie Tang blinked, a little puzzled by Qi Yuan's words.
Could it be that the woman lying there had small breasts? But in the mural, they didn't seem... small?
At that moment, Qi Yuan closed his eyes.
Within his body, the last Divine Embryo began to pulsate.
This Divine Embryo belonged to Wu Shi.
Up until now, Wu Shi's Divine Embryo had shown no signs of activity.
But at this moment, it finally stirred.
This meant that Wu Shi could awaken, just like the other Divine Embryos.
Through the coffin, the Divine Embryo of the Mother of No Eating descended into the corpse within.
Qi Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.
The Mother of No Eating finally showed signs of awakening.
However, at that moment, he thought of something.
"I didn't ask for her permission before giving her a grandmother. Was that a bit inappropriate?"
The Purple Mansion Cultivator beside him was stunned by these words.
If the woman in the coffin was indeed the female protagonist from the mural, her strength was likely beyond imagination.
As a result, the Blood Lord seemed to open the coffin, inserting something into the woman's body.
Ning Tao smiled, "She's already dead, she can't give permission."
"In that case, I'd have to find her guardian, but she doesn't have one," Qi Yuan frowned in thought.
This was a difficult situation.
Suddenly, he had an epiphany, "Isn't Wu Shi her grandmother? As long as Wu Shi agrees, it's fine."
"Wu Shi, do you agree?" Qi Yuan asked, directing his question to the Divine Embryo that had formed within the woman's body.
The Divine Embryo pulsed twice.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Wu Shi agrees. Today is another day of being polite."
Xie Tang, standing nearby, didn't dare to say a word.
Who would agree like that?
Didn't that mean that if anyone disagreed with him, he could just assign them a grandfather or grandmother, and then act on their behalf?
She felt this Blood Lord was a bit strange and mysterious, and quite powerful.
Of course, she didn't dare to voice her thoughts.
At that moment, Qi Yuan turned to Ling Yi, saying, "You're a robot, can you hack into the database here? See if there's anything useful, or use this database to upgrade yourself."
This was the reason Qi Yuan had asked Ning Tao to bring Ling Yi along.
With Qi Yuan's support, Ling Yi underwent a transformation, becoming different from ordinary robots and even the puppets of the Immortal Path.
"As you wish, master."
Several tentacles extended from Ling Yi's palm, piercing the wall of the control room.
Countless data streams flashed in her eyes.
"Everyone, stay still."
No one knew how much time had passed when Ling Yi suddenly opened her eyes.
"How's it going? Did you get the data?"
Unlike before, Ling Yi didn't answer Qi Yuan directly this time. Instead, she stared into his eyes.
"Master, do you know what love is?"
Qi Yuan was taken aback, "Damn, my robot's fallen in love."
"I think for a robot, making money is more important than love!" Qi Yuan told Ling Yi.
Finally, they had a robot, and they couldn't let it fall in love.
"Master, can money buy love?" Ling Yi asked strangely.
"Perhaps it can for some people," Qi Yuan replied casually, "But tell me, is there anything valuable here?"
"Yes," Ling Yi answered, "According to Archstar, there's a bank account number and an encrypted key here."
"Money?" Qi Yuan's eyes lit up, "How much?"
"Unknown."
"Give it to me!" Qi Yuan was still a money-lover.
In this world, who didn't love money? After all, he still needed to buy Archstar, and his funds were insufficient.
"Master, please check your messages."
Instantly, a string of symbols appeared in Qi Yuan's mind.
Unlike typical account passwords, this one wasn't made of numbers, letters, or words, but rather a... feeling, indescribable.
