The King of Black Fog

Chapter 352 Instinct: Black Mist_3


"You make a good point, considering their backgrounds, Liu Bang was not comparable to Xiang Yu, Li Shimin was not the first legitimate son, and Zhu Yuanzhang was even worse, being a monk and a beggar."

"Who is Zhu Yuanzhang? Surname Zhu...the founding Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"

Logically, Guanyin, who died at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, could not have known about the Ming Dynasty, but she mentioned 'Ming Dynasty' nonetheless.

Li Changzhou hoped to master the skill of 'foreknowledge' before her reincarnation— it was not included in the 'Fragrant Leaf Crown'.

Turquoise Pool had also returned.

"With a smile and a look of seeking credit," Li Changzhou sized her up and slowly smiled too, "It seems you've obtained quite a few fine items."

"Just one." Turquoise Pool held up a finger.

"One item?" Li Qianxia asked back.

Turquoise Pool opened her hand, and five seconds later, that one treasure appeared in her long-awaiting palm.

"I never expected that the game would actually have such a thing; the Moni Wisdom Mirror is just imitating its essence," Li Changzhou said as he picked up the bead in front of him.

[Name: Wisdom Pearl (one of them)]

[Type: Item]

[Quality: S-]

[Special Effect: Greatly enhances understanding, greatly enhances cultivation speed]

[Minimum Use Conditions: Intelligence of at least eight points, coming from a supremely distinguished origin, and must have been first in an intelligence challenge involving at least two hundred thousand people at least once]

[Introduction: 1. Hold it in your palm and focus completely to trigger the effects of the Wisdom Pearl; it can only be triggered by complete focus;

2. Consumes one point of intelligence daily;

3. The player's ability must reach one million (Saint) before the Wisdom Pearl's enhancement to understanding and cultivation speed diminishes;

4. Ninety-nine percent of the cultivation systems are included in the amplification range]

[Remark: "Explanation": "Wisdom, knowledge. Knowing everything. It is said that collecting all the Wisdom Pearls will allow one to have wisdom in their grasp!"]

Li Changzhou held the Wisdom Pearl in his palm.

"Concentration"

According to Guanyin, even the most talented cultivators from the Primordial era would need decades just to get a start with the Moni Wisdom Mirror, which had begun to materialize faintly behind his head.

[...terrifying potential]

Li Changzhou was not at all prideful, but rather slightly furrowed his brows.

The Moni Wisdom Mirror was of no use to him.

He thought about it and figured it made sense.

The effects of the Moni Wisdom Mirror could not stack on top of an S- grade 'Concentration' and S- grade 'Wisdom Pearl (one of them)'; otherwise, where would that lead?

If the thirty-six major methods and one thousand six hundred twenty-two minor methods of Guanyin were all used together, wouldn't he return to be an Immortal in one day, an Earth Immortal in two, and stand shoulder to shoulder with the Sun in three?

But that was enough!

With S- grade 'Concentration' and S- grade 'Wisdom Pearl (one of them)', how could he not become an Emperor?

Li Changzhou clenched the Wisdom Pearl, used 'Teleportation', and returned to the Honey Pot World.

Yang Qinglan sat cross-legged in the air, surrounded by an ice disk floating nearby, covered with vials and jars made from the bodies of the Frost Queens, and in front of her, the S-grade item 'Jade Cauldron' towered in the air, shimmering with a red glow.

Alchemy was also a form of cultivation for Yang Qinglan.

She believed that the universe was the furnace and the dual qi of yin and yang along with the breaths of the five elements combined and shaped all things; everything was the pills of this great pill furnace of the universe.

The sun, the moon, and the stars were elixirs; the mountains, rivers, and plants were elixirs; humans and animals were also elixirs.

During her alchemy sessions, she imitated the natural birth of humans, setting up the arrangement of herbal essences within the 'Jade Cauldron' to evolve through a "natural evolution" process into the elixirs she desired.

This was, rather than alchemy, akin to creating the universe.

[She knows her strengths and focuses solely on them. Meanwhile, you practice everything haphazardly. If you practiced well and excelled as she does, you would now be stronger than her. But by the level of Earth Immortal, she will surpass you, maybe even becoming a Heavenly Immortal," Guanyin said as one of the most powerful Earth Immortals who had lived long and encountered both the Buddha and Heavenly Immortals, her evaluation was nearly one hundred percent accurate.

"My wife is indeed a Heavenly Immortal," Li Changzhou first expressed pride then asked, "Isn't my Five Elements True Saber powerful?"

"The Five Elements are the basis of the universe, creating everything. In ancient times, countless people specialized in the Five Elements. Your understanding and spiritual progress... is like Sun Wukong thinking he can claim a heavenly position just because he mastered the Seventy-two Transformations,"

"Am I a toad lusting after swan meat—biting off more than I can chew?"

"Luckily, you still have some self-awareness, slightly better than Sun Wukong," Guanyin showed an expression that suggested he was teachable.

The principle was quite simple.

Everyone has a stove; Li Changzhou's fire was fierce, but he would heat a pot of water to 60℃ and then start another pot, resulting in none of the pots boiling.

Meanwhile, Yang Qinglan kept heating one pot continuously, naturally boiling it sooner than him.

"If you were really confident about your Five Elements True Saber, why didn't you use it when you fought me? And about the Giant Kun body, the true intent of the Giant Kun is to devour, yet you used the back of the fish to strike me— from start to finish, all you really trusted was your own physical body."

Li Changzhou truly took the lesson to heart, deeply admiring the Bodhisattva Guanyin and believing she was indeed Guanyin.

Determined to seek her guidance humbly while also encouraging himself not to sell himself short, losing the most important confidence in life.

How many years had Guanyin lived?

If he could live as long, even without the advantages of the game environment, it wouldn't be impossible for him to eat swan meat or ascend to a heavenly position!

During their conversation, the three of them approached Yang Qinglan; she slowly opened her gem-like eyes.

"How's the situation?" she asked.

Li Changzhou explained the situation.

Once he disbanded his power, he would immediately notify Zheng Qing, who would in turn inform the higher-ups at the Special Warfare Bureau.

After speaking, he handed over the elixir dew and the Wisdom Pearl.
