Master of Strange Dao

"I am planning to bring Dadui back within the next three hundred years. I came this time to ask your opinion first, and then discuss it with Zhang and the others. I personally toured the entire Dadui and feel that, at its current development speed, three hundred years is a bit tight, but almost achievable."

"Not a big problem; even if there is, we must forge forward."

"I've always wondered, initially, who was aware that only after Dadui's return could the path to the Tenth Tier be opened?"

"I don't know, but this matter should likely be true.

Moreover, I've studied the classics of Dadui, but they did not resolve one of my doubts.

The origin of Dadui's Sealing Skill has no record.

And last time, you asked me to look up some classics about how Body Cultivation came to be.

I couldn't find any valuable clues either.

I can only confirm that during the Early Dadui, Body Cultivation did not exist at all.

But by the Late Period, Body Cultivation suddenly appeared, as if it had always been there, and everyone got accustomed to it.

The process from its emergence to its spread is untraceable.

There are many similar omissions, which can't be pieced together, but there's no solution.

I also noticed that people of Dadui seem to never feel anything amiss about this.

Even Jia Shisi did not notice some issues until I brought them up, and he suddenly realized, as if waking from a dream.

It was like everyone was under a spell."

"What are you thinking about? How could it be possible to cast... uh..." Yu Ziqing's expression slightly changed.

"What's wrong?"

"There's actually a possibility."

"What?"

"Have you forgotten about the Yin Devils?"

Yang's eyes also slightly changed.

The human race has mostly gathered together, concentrating around cities from ancient times to today.

But in all such cities, Yin Devils are tirelessly, persistently sowing seeds.

Every infant is not exempt.

No matter what achievements this infant might have in the future, in infancy, he is a being into whom the Yin Devils can easily plant seeds.

"Is there Yin Devil activity in Dadui?"

"I haven't heard of any. Previously, with the Earth Deity out of control, it was impossible for Yin Devils to operate.

Now, when Jade Tablets have been extended to every village, even more so there's no space for Yin Devil activity.

The materials added within those Jade Tablets, no matter how scarce, are from the Seven Yin King.

Forget it; think of a way later, and capture a few Yin Devils for research.

It might be just as you thought, it's indeed not that simple.

To slowly influence over a long period, indeed nothing is more suitable than the Yin Devils."

Yu Ziqing nodded with a calm expression.

"Regardless of whether it is, as long as the opportunity presents itself later, we must think of a way to deal with the Seven Yin King.

Moreover, the Three Divine Dynasties are currently idle, let's find some tasks for them.

Let's clean up the Yin Devils spread across the world.

And find some new business for our Jinlan Mountain.

The Yin Devils generally aren't strong, and the people going out to train from Jinlan Mountain should be enough."

In just a few words, they set a general direction, first starting with Dazhen or Dali, depending on the situation at Daqian.

Later, after discussing and planning with Zhang and the others and setting a deadline of three hundred years, Yu Ziqing left once more.

Returning to Jinlan Mountain, with a little contemplation, starting with Dazhen seemed best.

Stone's wife hadn't visited her family in a long time, so it was time for her to go back.

Just let Stone go out to train as well.

The little one wanted to sneak out too but was beaten by Yu Ziqing and had to stay home obediently.

This little guy really isn't afraid of encountering the Evil Dao and being stripped to the bone and sucked dry, possibly having his bloodline refined.

Carrying some protective talismans made by Yang, Stone and his wife embarked on the journey back to her family.

Having come to Jinlan Mountain for so many years and never left, finally being allowed out, Stone's mouth never closed.

Heading northwards, the journey out of the Wilderness went smoothly.

After entering Dazhen territory, as the crowd increased, the troubles began to arise.

Encountering a battle, ordinary people would usually avoid it, but Stone's eyes brightened.

"Do you know those people over there?"

Stone's wife glanced and frowned slightly.

"A couple of Sealed King's disciples, a bunch of good-for-nothings, don't bother with them."

"Why? Didn't get on well with Ancestor Yue?"

"Not really on good terms, they previously tricked our Prince, back when the Prince raised a flag in rebellion, he was forced to act by others pushing him."

Upon hearing this, Stone's back instantly straightened.

"Then, as people from King Xiang's Mansion, why should we go around them? They should be going around us."

Stone's wife rolled her eyes hearing this.

When Stone wagged his bottom, she knew exactly what he intended.

But what he said wasn't entirely wrong, so she let him go make trouble.

A glint of golden light flashed on Stone as he swaggered over, looking at the battling parties, letting out a cold laugh.

"Where did these two packs of odious hounds come from, spewing fur everywhere, get out of the way a bit."

At these words, both battling parties looked over, seemingly incredulous, glaring at Stone.

"What are you looking at? Either move and fight elsewhere, or quickly finish it off and clear the path."

Moments later, when Stone's wife came flying over with people, seeing the two groups with reddened eyes, snarling teeth, ready to beat Stone to death.

Surrounded and beaten, a metallic sheen shone from Stone's body, grinning maliciously, embodying the look of a villain.
