Chapter 66: How to Repay the Debt of Gratitude?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Tianyuan came to look for Lin Jiufeng because more and more people sealed from the previous era were about to break out of their seals. He reckoned that a bloodbath would happen the moment they appeared in the world.

.

Those people were powerful powerhouses of the previous era, although they were greatly weakened by the passing of time after being sealed for so long. The cultivators in this brand new world had just started to adapt to the renewed spiritual energy.

It was unrealistic for them to defeat those old monsters that easily.

They could do whatever they wanted. They could decide on anything.

Once they managed to come out so early, those old monsters would be able to do whatever they wanted. If that happened, the existing order and the peace of the world would undoubtedly collapse.

Hence, Lin Jiufeng imparted the sealing array formation that he developed to Lin Tianyuan.

“Pass down this sealing array formation. You don’t have to worry about anything else. At least for the time being, you don’t have to worry about them breaking out of their seals.”

Lin Jiufeng’s tone was calm, but the confidence contained within it pierced through the sky.

How could he possibly have read that thick Encyclopedia of Array Formations in vain?

“Thank you, Uncle.” Lin Tianyuan thanked him happily.

“You also have to pay attention to grooming your own forces. Does the Yuhua God Dynasty already have its own Human God?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

The Yuhua God Dynasty couldn’t be supported by him alone.

Lin Jiufeng would have to leave sooner or later.

“Uncle, I’ve already nurtured two Human Gods. Moreover, I’ve already set up martial training schools all over the world, and I made laws concerning the nurturing of outstanding children…”

“The martial training schools are built so that even the children of ordinary families can learn and cultivate on the martial path. Once these children grow up, their strength will definitely not be bad.” Lin Tianyuan shared the results that he had achieved during this period of time.

After that absurd Empress abolishing incident, Lin Tianyuan finally realized what must do.

He must oversee the continued implementation of the reforms and he must also nurture talented youths to serve the dynasty.

Lin Jiufeng looked at Lin Tianyuan.

He couldn’t help but be satisfied. “I can see that you’ve truly matured.”

Lin Tianyuan smiled in shame as he directly took his leave.

After obtaining the sealing array formation, he didn’t have a reason to continue to disturb Lin Jiufeng anymore.

When Lin Tianyuan returned to the Forbidden City, he drew the sealing array formation from his memory and passed it down.

“Get the Martial Sage Corps to take action. If there are any abnormalities anywhere, immediately use this to seal them. Don’t be afraid of wasting materials. Our Yuhua God Dynasty has an abundance of them…”

“My only requirement is that the safety of everyone must be ensured,” Lin Tianyuan said solemnly.

Someone immediately went ahead and delivered the message to the Martial Sage Corps

Then, Martial Sages from all directions left the Imperial Capital in droves.

They brought with them the sealing array formation that Lin Jiufeng passed down to them as they went towards the location with abnormalities to seal those old monsters.

In just a few moments, every member of the Martial Sage Corps that Lin Tianyuan had established finally left the Imperial Capital to do their jobs.

Once his subordinate broke through to the Human God Realm, Lin Tianyuan established the Martial Sage Corps.

The number of Martial Sages under his command now was a whopping 3,000.

3,000 Martial Sages and two Human Gods…

Without relying on Lin Jiufeng, this force was enough to deter anything hostile in the world and protect the Yuhua God Dynasty.

Since Lin Tianyuan turned for the better and apologized to the court officials one by one, the court officials’ relationship with him became even more harmonious. They were more motivated in their work.

The world was being governed harmoniously.

At last, Lin Tianyuan could now compare to his father—Emperor Yuan—in the realm of politics and being the Emperor overall.

…

After Lin Tianyuan left with the sealing array formation, Lin Jiufeng’s days became peaceful once again. No one came to disturb him as he continued his routine of signing in quietly.

Something had changed in his routine, however, every day he would defeat a demon from that demon’s den in exchange for a sign-in. As a result, he would always have something new in his person every day, may it be a treasure, a bottle of pills, or a classical book of knowledge.

Lin Jiufeng wasn’t picky at all.

He would take whatever he was given and he used them all to improve his strength.

In just ten-plus days, Lin Jiufeng was already at the peak of the Ultimate Human stage, which was the third stage of the Human God Realm.

He wasn’t far from the fourth stage, Nirvana.

‘According to the way I am quietly signing in silently now, this day for breaking through isn’t far off.’ Lin Jiufeng calculated in his heart.

‘If I stick to my routine, the day of my breakthrough should be nigh.’

Lin Jiufeng calculated in his heart.

But ten days later, he had already defeated the demons that were awake.

The others were all asleep inside that demon’s den.

Seeing this, Lin Jiufeng closed his eyes.

His Divine Soul left his body and it appeared as a second body.

It was an avatar that could harness Lin Jiufeng’s full strength.

“Go inside that demon’s den and wake up the others,” Lin Jiufeng said to his Divine Soul.

He looked at the dozen or so demons before him.

They were all dejected.

These top powerhouses of the previous era had actually lost to a brat—Lin Jiufeng.

And they weren’t even able to hold their own in the fight.

In every battle between them so far, Lin Jiufeng only had to flick his finger.

The resplendent ancient True Qi runes within his body would do the job for him as it would always smack the demons flat, instantly defeating them.

Knowing that they had no hope of winning against him, they decided to obey Lin Jiufeng’s every command. Today, they brought Lin Jiufeng’s Divine Soul into the depths of their demon’s den as the latter awakened the slumbering Demon Gods.

These Demon Gods were powerful existences that were countless times stronger than the demons that Lin Jiufeng fought against so far.

The battle lasted for about 300 exchanges. Then, he signed in and left the place after he received something that he was satisfied with.

Advance and retreat at will!

This part of his routine had become the most important part of Lin Jiufeng’s daily life. Defeating demons, signing in after their defeat, and receiving bountiful rewards for his victory. Every reward that was ever so slightly useful to him, Lin Jiufeng always made sure to use them.

His cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds.

The Human God Realm could no longer trap him anymore.

These days lasted for three months.

In three months, Lin Jiufeng’s gains were enormous.

He defeated the Demon Gods one after another.

Not a single Demon God in their weakened state could defeat Lin Jiufeng.

…

Three months later, Miss Hong returned to the Great Yan Dynasty.

The first thing she did upon her return was to check the compass.

This was the Heavenly Dao Sect’s supreme treasure.

It could predict if a seal on an ancient ruin from the previous era was about to be broken, releasing the old monsters within it out into the world.

“That’s strange…” Miss Hong looked at the compass with a frown.

She remembered vividly that within the Yuhua God Dynasty alone, there were more than a hundred sealed beings that were about to break out of their seals.

Back then, she planned to deal with the other locations first before going to the Yuhua God Dynasty to solve all of her problems at once.

She didn’t expect that these problems within the Yuhua God Dynasty would disappear in just three short months.

‘How come they are all gone?’ Miss Hong looked at the compass in confusion.

‘Did that Human God from the Yuhua God Dynasty make a move?’ Miss Hong guessed.

‘But it shouldn’t be that easy…’

‘Suppressing one or two locations wouldn’t be a problem, but to suppress more than a hundred… could it be that he knows an effective sealing array formation?’ Miss Hong mumbled to herself.

‘But this is also a good thing.’

After thinking for a long time, the confused Miss Hong decided to not think about it anymore.

A slight smile appeared on her lips as she heaved a sigh of relief.

‘I must take advantage of this period of stability to pay the debt of gratitude that I owe to that benefactor of mine. Then, I must repair my Divine Soul to completion. Only when I’m done with this can I make a breakthrough into the next stage…’

‘Only when my Divine Soul is complete can I become even stronger to suppress those people from the previous era to give the people of this era enough time to adjust to this brand new world. Hopefully, they’ll become as strong as those from the previous era as soon as possible.’

Determination flitted across Miss Hong’s eyes.

This was the will and the legacy of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

Equilibrium!

Since Miss Hong had inherited the teachings of the Heavenly Dao Sect, she worked hard to enforce them.

‘But how should I repay this debt of gratitude?’

Miss Hong thought for a while.

In the end, she couldn’t think of anything suitable for repayment.

‘I’ve got to consult the others.’ Miss Hong started to make another batch of paper cranes.

This time, she folded even more paper cranes than last time as she wrote her doubts within the cranes.

’30 paper cranes will bring back 30 answers…’

‘I hope those answers will help me think of a way to repay him.’

Miss Hong looked forward to hearing the answers of the recipients of these paper cranes.
