“I don’t want to repeat myself. I won’t use any of my resources to restore this place until I completely control it. Its current size is sufficient for me. If it isn’t enough later on, that’s for my future self to worry about!”
Feng Qing’an’s expression was exceptionally cold.
He could clearly see that the spirit of this Cave Sky was only reluctantly submitting to him due to the pressure of impending destruction and the helplessness of reality. Even though it had given him partial control of the Cave Sky, it was just a verbal promise.
But what Feng Qing’an needed was actual control. As long as he didn’t have complete control of the Cave Sky one day and there was a chance of it being taken by others, he wouldn’t pour any resources here. He would never dress others in wedding clothes.
“But these can be restored…”
“There is no ‘but’. These are all for my personal use. If you dare interfere with my cultivation, I’ll hasten the destruction of this place!”
“I’m just asking, wasn’t saying I would use yours!”
Upon hearing Feng Qing’an’s threat, the nine mountain-sized heads instinctively shrank back. Although Feng Qing’an’s current strength making such a threat seemed somewhat ridiculous, the Cave Sky spirit didn’t dare to belittle him, the capable one who could see its past life.
“Do what you’re supposed to do and don’t appear in front of me unless I’ve summoned you!”
“Okay!”
The spirit of Cave Sky nodded vigorously.
“Call me ‘Master’!”
Feng Qing’an commanded indifferently, showing no courtesy, even though he was standing inside the realm controlled by the other party.
“Alright, Master!”
“Dismiss!”
Feng Qing’an waved his hand impatiently.
The nine enormous heads, as large as mountains, slowly vanished from the sky. Feng Qing’an no longer had the strength to maintain his apparent composure. He sat down cross-legged and started refining the feedback that You Huang had given him. As for the parts he couldn’t handle, he directly injected them into the Cave Sky for temporary storage.
The Cave Sky was not just a place to avoid disasters. For the controller, it was also an almost inexhaustible source of magic power, which could be used to wield various divine powers without any hesitation.
Hum~
When Feng Qing’an sat cross-legged, a little dark spiritual light began to twinkle from the mud in front of him. It broke through the soil layer and slowly bloomed, revealing a Third Grade Black Lotus with golden patterns.
Feng Qing’an remained indifferent. Because this was the crystal he condensed with the original power that You Huang had fed back to him using the power of Cave Sky. It just naturally transformed into a black lotus.
As Feng Qing’an absorbed the power while directing the uncontainable force into the Cave Sky for later use, a red halo gradually appeared, enveloping him.
The Ninth Soul Contract!
Feng Qing’an, who had just condensed the eighth Soul Contract, strengthened his soul foundation with You Huang’s uplifting momentum, and his Soul Power surged, logically condensing the ninth Soul Contract. He was only one step away from completing the cultivation of the Heavenly Beast Master.
Only when Feng Qing’an felt the feedback from the Soul Contract gradually weakening did he slowly open his eyes. The first thing he did was to sense his third Soul Contract. Fortunately, although this Soul Contract was somewhat unstable due to the excessive shock, it still existed and wasn’t broken.
“Feng Qing’an, what were you talking to just now?”
As soon as Feng Qing’an recovered from the shock of the original feedback, You Huang’s voice sounded. She seemed to have watched the conversation between Feng Qing’an and the spirit of Cave Sky through the Soul Contract.
Even though You Huang was quickly regaining her previous realm, she was still shocked by the existence that talked to Feng Qing’an. It was something beyond her understanding.
“You mean Little Nine? It’s the spirit of Cave Sky!”
You Huang, with the power to rival the Taoism human Immortals, was silent for a moment and then asked,
“What is the spirit of Cave Sky?”
She knew about Cave Sky, but the spirit of Cave Sky was something she had never seen or heard of. This was the first time she heard about it from Feng Qing’an.
“To my understanding, this entity is a special spirit formed from a dying Cave Sky as a last resort for its survival. It is not often that ordinary spirits can perceive its existence, can you see it?”
“I can’t see what it looks like on your end, but I can vaguely sense that you’re talking to a being that is not weaker than me!”
East Huang replied, Feng Qing’an’s words stirring a mix of emotions within her. She was still unaware that such unique spirits could be born before the destruction of a Cave Sky.
“Hmph, that thing is just a show-off, nothing more than a paper tiger. It can only trot around its little tricks in this pitifully run-down Cave Sky. Once it leaves, it’s as useless as a fart!”
Feng Qing’an dismissed with indifference. Though it seemed as if he was bullying the honest spirit somewhat, this was necessary when dealing with such unexpectedly powerful yet socially challenged beings.
If he fails to maintain a strong stance, this entity might take advantage and consume the source power he just brought in, the power that can repair the Cave Sky.
The spirit, born to prevent the demise of the Cave Sky, is hard to resist the temptation of such power. However, since it needs him, it can suppress its instinctual consumption desire.
Listening to Feng Qing’an’s words, East Huang fell silent, at a loss for words. She only thought of her father, who, if he had encountered a damaged Cave Sky with a so-called Cave Sky Spirit, would not have this kind of attitude.
“East Huang, now that you have successfully transcended your tribulation, what are your plans moving forward? Expand your Ghost Nation? Conquer more territories of the underworld?”
Without waiting for East Huang’s response, Feng Qing’an, eager and restless, asked the You Huang Ghost Country leader.
In the underworld, where a single entity becomes king through their own power, the expansion of their ruled lands is as natural as they increase in power.
“Even if I don’t act, the Ghost Kings under my command won’t be idle. They will naturally venture out under my banner, in my name, to expand territories, serving as my vassals!”
“Are you planning on conferring the title of emperor?”
Feng Qing’an’s expression turned increasingly excited.
“I will remain as the Country Lord, I definitely won’t confer the title of emperor. I am far from qualified!”
East Huang, knowing many secrets and taboos, decisively refused.
In the mortal realm, the title of emperor is arbitrary, but in the cultivation world, regardless of which realm, anyone who presumes to take up the title of emperor without true power will surely meet misfortune. This is the iron law.
Even though it’s been a long time since East Huang’s original era, she is confident that this iron law remains unchanged – such an act of overstepping bounds cannot be forgiven.
“What kind of qualifications?”
Feng Qing’an was somewhat confused.
He didn’t understand why East Huang’s reaction was so strong, especially since his assessment rated her as an emperor.
“In the mortal realm, conferring the title of emperor means nothing, yet in the cultivation world, one must possess the power to suppress an entire realm. If one lacks this capacity but dares to add the title of emperor, they will surely meet calamity!”
“I understand!”
Feng Qing’an sensed the seriousness in East Huang’s tone and took it to heart.
“Enough about this, let’s discuss your plans. Do you intend to take on a mentor?”
“Not right now!”
Feng Qing’an, who witnessed the entire process of East Huang overcoming her tribulation, was not very interested in the so-called Taoist immortals.
He didn’t know how the trials of becoming a Taoist immortal compared to East Huang passing through Heavenly Tribulation, but he firmly believed few Taoist Human Immortals could match East Huang.
East Huang re-cultivated herself in her lifetime. The strength of Heavenly Tribulation often depends on the one going through it, so he wasn’t convinced Taiyin’s Female Immortals could be stronger than East Huang.
Given this, there was no necessity for him to take a mentor now. He would better show the variations of the current Dao Sutra to East Huang.
“I’ve gathered quite a few Dao Sutras, I’ll find a way to send them to you in a few days!”
“No need to go through that trouble. Near your current location, there’s a small rift between worlds. I can come through it, but you will have to wait for me. First, I need to get a grip on the power I’ve gained after overcoming my tribulation!”
“Okay!”
