In the Void Mountain, the little loli Yu Youwei anxiously searched all around the Heavenly Dao Hall but couldn’t find her master’s figure.
"Meow~!"
"Little Tea Tree, where is Master?"
In the end, the little loli ran to the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree, looking at it with wide, expectant eyes.
Just now, she had been sleeping soundly on her master’s body. As the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao’s rules, she could clearly sense the three thousand Great Dao laws radiating from her master’s body.
Usually, just by lying on her master while sleeping, her cultivation would improve far faster than if she were to cultivate normally!
But suddenly, her master had disappeared!
This made Yu Youwei extremely anxious!
[Don’t panic. Based on Tea-Tea’s experience, Master will return in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.]
[He probably just went to handle something.]
Sensing Yu Youwei’s distress, the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree gently tapped her with a branch, transmitting a message.
The first time Master had suddenly disappeared, it had been somewhat flustered as well. But since it had not yet gained a human form, it could only rely on physical gestures to communicate.
However, after experiencing this a few times, the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree had realized that every time Master vanished, he would return shortly.
Sure enough, just as the Tea Tree finished transmitting its message to Yu Youwei—
A figure reappeared, once again lying comfortably on the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree, stretching lazily.
‘Ah, that was satisfying. This time, I earned quite a few system points!’
Chen Daoxuan had returned, feeling quite pleased. Not only had he received an extra 100,000 system points for completely annihilating the Ren family, but he had also taken a Heavenly-grade artifact and 5,000 supreme-grade spirit stones from each of the four Void Return Realm cultivators.
"Meow!"
"Master is back!"
"Where did Master go just now? Youwei thought Master didn’t want her anymore..."
Seeing her master suddenly return, Yu Youwei was overjoyed. She immediately leaped onto him, affectionately rubbing against him before settling into her usual resting spot.
"I just helped your two senior sisters deal with a little trouble."
"In the future, don’t panic when this happens."
Chen Daoxuan laughed as he pulled on her leopard-like ears, playfully squeezing them.
"Uhh~~"
Yu Youwei let out a soft hum of contentment. Being next to her master made her feel absolutely safe and comfortable.
Though, in this world, there probably weren’t many beings that could actually pose a threat to her.
As the embodiment of Heavenly Tribulation, if she unleashed her full power, she could easily wield strength equivalent to that of an immortal.
‘Let’s see how many system points I’ve earned this time.’
While toying with Yu Youwei’s beast ears, Chen Daoxuan silently activated the system to check his latest gains.
[Host: Chen Daoxuan]
[Race: Human]
[Faction: Heavenly Dao Pavilion]
[Special Physique: Hongmeng Primordial Dao Body]
[Cultivation Technique: Chaos Celestial Demon Art (Perfected), Chaos Sacred Dragon Art (Perfected)]
[Talent: Hongmeng]
[Cultivation Realm: First Layer of the Void Sky Realm]
[System Points: 142,333]
[Disciples: Leng Yanran, Li Yurong]
After using 100,000 system points to break through to the Void Sky Realm, Chen Daoxuan had been left with only a small amount of points. But now, his system points had skyrocketed to over 140,000 once again!
Among these points, 10,000 came from a system reward when his eldest disciple, Leng Yanran, ascended to the position of Empress.
‘Tsk— I forgot to give Yanran the Imperial Seal from the system reward.’
Chen Daoxuan suddenly remembered, but he quickly dismissed the thought. After all, Yanran already had the God-Slaying Spear and wasn’t lacking in artifacts.
He could simply give it to her when she returned to the sect.
'System. convert all the artifacts and spirit stones in my system space into system points, leave only 1,000 supreme-grade spirit stones.’
Even though he had over 140,000 system points, it was far from enough to satisfy him—especially since he had just emptied the Ren family’s treasure vault.
As soon as Chen Daoxuan gave the command, a series of system notifications rang out.
[Ding! Converted 5 Heavenly-grade lower-tier artifacts. Gained: 100,000 system points.]
[Ding! Converted 35,000 supreme-grade spirit stones. Gained: 70,000 system points.]
[Ding! Converted—]
Hearing the continuous system notifications, Chen Daoxuan felt like he was listening to the sweetest melody in the world!
A single Heavenly-grade low-tier artifact could be exchanged for 20,000 system points—equivalent to the reward for killing a Second Layer Spirit Dividing Realm cultivator!
However, what surprised him was that he had only extorted—no, "accepted gifts"—for four Heavenly-grade artifacts, yet the system had converted five.
It seemed that Yanran and Yurong had taken one more from the Ren family’s treasure vault. But since Heavenly-grade Artifacts weren’t of much importance to him, he hadn’t even bothered to check what the Ren family’s artifacts were before exchanging them for system points.
As for supreme-grade spirit stones, despite the Ren family’s vast wealth, they had only possessed 15,000.
[Ding! Conversion complete. Total system points gained: 226,980.]
‘Hiss— Now this is satisfying!’
Hearing that he had exchanged a total of over 220,000 system points, Chen Daoxuan felt absolutely elated.
With the original 140,000-plus points, his total system points had now reached a staggering 369,313!
A once-poor man had suddenly become rich!
"Tsk, unfortunately, breaking through just a single layer in the Void Sky Realm now costs 100,000 system points. These points are only enough to reach the Third Layer at most."
"I wonder if Yanran and Yurong can accomplish anything significant while they’re out this time. If they can help their master earn another 700,000 to 800,000 points, I might just break through to the Profound Sky Realm!"
The thought of needing a million system points to break through to the Profound Sky Realm felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him.
But there was no need to rush. After all, it had only been about half a year since he had taken in Leng Yanran as his first disciple.
Yet, in that short time, he had gone from being a mere mortal to reaching the Void Sky Realm.
And his Void Sky Realm was far from ordinary. Based on his estimations, a cultivator who reached the Void Sky Realm would already be capable of summoning heavenly tribulation, granting them power comparable to an immortal.
Now that he was in the Void Sky Realm, his strength was likely enough to suppress ordinary immortals.
If he broke through to the Profound Sky Realm—
Tsk, tsk, tsk—
‘Ah, my disciples are out there earning system points for me, yet here I am indulging myself like this.’
‘This isn’t right… Oh well, I’ll just sleep. If I sleep, I won’t feel guilty anymore.’
Thinking about how his two disciples were running around the Eastern Region for his sake, Chen Daoxuan felt a pang of sympathy.
But then again…
Nothing is more important than sleep!
Today was cloudless, the weather was sunny, and it was the perfect day to nap in the sun!
Before long, the front of the Heavenly Dao Hall returned to its usual peace.
The Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree swayed gently, while Chen Daoxuan lay sound asleep in a vine chair. From time to time, sparks of lightning flickered around Yu Youwei, making his nap even more comfortable.
