Yang Jing brought Deified Dog and Ao Cheng with him. They soon arrived at the Heavenly Palace.
They headed straight towards the Lingxiao Palace once they arrived. They requested to meet with the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor and Empress already knew it was about the expert. They naturally did not dare to neglect it. They immediately went to the Lingxiao Palace.
They glanced at Yang Jing and Ao Cheng and were instantly stunned. They could detect the changes in their auras. “Yang Jing, you…you became a Quasi-Saint?”
Ao Cheng and Deified Dog also became Daluo Golden Immortals.
‘What’s going on?
‘What kind of opportunity did they run into?!
‘Breakthroughs to Quasi-Saint and Daluo Golden Immortal are super difficult!’
The Jade Emperor and Empress felt jealous!
Yang Jing smiled and put his hands behind his back. His aura slowly emitted. He smiled and said, “Ha. I’m not trying to show off or anything but I got lucky. It’s all because of the expert.”
The Jade Emperor and Empress looked at each other. They asked, “What happened?”
Ao Cheng saluted and said with respect, “Emperor, this is what happened. At that moment, God Jiro and I were heading to the expert’s place…”
He immediately told them everything.
The Jade Emperor and Empress were gradually shocked as he told them the story. They just listened to it but it was still frightening. They were flushed.
They gasped in the end.
‘Floating in Wisdom like it was the sea.’
They looked astounded. ‘What kind of scenario is that?!’
At that moment, their teary eyes teared up more.
‘I can’t believe we missed out on such a huge opportunity. If we were there, we would’ve…become more than Quasi-Saints?’
‘Missed opportunity!’
Their hearts were twitching at the thought of it. They could not breathe from the heartaches.
The Jade Emperor hurriedly shook his head. ‘Can’t think about it, or else I’ll have a mental breakdown.’ He took a deep breath and exclaimed, “That’s the true Basics of Wisdom!”
The Empress also said, “Wisdom like the sea, a melody that anyone can resonate with. This is…too incredible! Even Basics of Wisdom from Dao Zu can’t compare to that!”
The Basics of Wisdom from their Dao Zu contained Truth. However, they needed to understand it themselves. They might need millions of years before they could realize it.
It was like reading ancient Chinese. They needed to discover the meaning without the translation.
‘The expert basically extracted the Wisdom.’
The breakthrough was unreal, they would not think of it in their wildest dreams. No wonder Yang Jing and the others could breakthrough. It was like cheating.
The Jade Emperor had to sigh with jealousy. “You guys got lucky!”
Yang Jing and the others were not offended at all. ‘We’re indeed lucky. Haha, we’re proud of it!’
Yang Jing went serious after a moment. He said, “Emperor, everything else in the four-part architecture was upgraded because of the Basics of Wisdom. Even the Immortal Qi and Spiritual Water had breakthroughs. I also couldn’t detect anything from the fruits.”
“Upgraded Immortal Qi?!”
The Jade Emperor and the Empress jolted. They looked at each other. They were both confused and doubtful. Emotions stirred inside them.
Yang Jian immediately asked, “Do you know what it could be, Emperor and Empress?”
“I heard about that from Dao Zu. Back then, three thousand Demon Gods came from the Chaos. There was a Spiritual Qi in the Chaos named Chaos Spiritual Qi! The water was known as Chaos Spiritual Water. The Spiritual Roots and Spiritual Treasure were also known as Chaos Spiritual Roots and Chaos Spiritual Treasure!”
The Jade Emperor’s voice trembled as he said, “But… This is the Chaos we’re talking about. Even Dao Zu could only gaze upon it. I naturally wasn’t worried about it because it was beyond me.”
‘Chaos!
‘An unimaginable realm filled with unimaginable things!’
The Empress exclaimed, “I’ll use Lord Pangu as an example. He was able to create realms because of his cultivation. But… It was also because he had the Chaos Green Lotus and the Heavenly Ax. The two items…were Chaos Spiritual Treasure!”
Pangu created realms and faced attacks from 3,000 Demon Gods. In the end, he killed them all. He could never do that without his ultimate weapons, no matter how awesome he was!
“Chaos Spiritual Treasure…created the realms?!”
Yang Jing and the others instantly felt shivers run down their spines. They had goosebumps.
Previously, they only paid attention to Pangu himself. They suddenly realized that Pangu must have used incredibly powerful Immortal Items!
‘So… Chaos Spiritual Treasure.’
The Empress noticed how shocked they looked. She smiled and said, “Maybe you all aren’t familiar with the Chaos Green Lotus. After the realms were created, its lotus leaves and stems turned to the Twelve Lotuses, the Death Note, the God Killing Spear, and The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting!”
Everyone was extremely shocked. They were overloaded with information. They said in a daze, “So awesome.”
They did not have a clear concept of how powerful a Chaos Spiritual Treasure was. However, after the long list of famous and powerful Heavenly Spiritual Treasures that were formed by a Chaos Spiritual Treasure, they thought it was too scary.
‘How powerful can it be?!’
‘I’m shaking from how powerful it is.’
“This…this…” Ao Cheng could not breathe. He felt his skin crawl. “The expert has Chaos Spiritual Qi?”
He could not believe that he breathed in Chaos Spiritual Qi and drank Chaos Spiritual Water. He even tasted some Chaos Spiritual Fruits. He almost passed out from excitement. That was the prime of his life!
The Jade Emperor was sentimental. He said with jealousy, “Most probably. Even my Dao Zu would cry over treasure like that!’
‘Damn, that’s Chaos Spiritual Qi. I haven’t even inhaled it yet. I heard that being in Chaos Spiritual Qi helps with understanding Wisdom. I missed out on a huge opportunity today! I’m so jealous!’
He thought about the changes at the Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint. It was most probably related to that.
Yang Jing went serious. “Oh yeah, the expert showed us a book named ‘Classics of Mountains and Seas’. He asked about the contents but there were a lot of rare creatures we’ve never seen before. Which is why we rushed over here.”
“Really?”
The Jade Emperor and Empress immediately stood up. They exclaimed, “Why didn’t you tell us sooner? Hurry up and let us take a look!”
‘An assignment from the expert! How can we delay it?!’
Yang Jing cast a spell and wiped his forehead. His third eye instantly opened. A golden laser beam came out from the eye and projected in the air.
Visuals of the beasts appeared out of thin air.
If Li Nianfan was there, he would have been amazed. ‘Who knew that Erlang Shen’s third eye could record things? Learn something new every day.’
The ferocious beasts appeared one by one. The Jade Emperor and Empress stared and frowned. They shook their heads. “We don’t recognize most of these Demonic Beasts.”
The Jade Emperor said, “What did the expert mean? Tell me what the expert told you. Don’t miss out on any words.”
Yang Jing and the others took turns telling the story. They repeated what Li Nianfan said exactly.
The Jade Emperor fell deep into thought. His facial expression kept changing.
“I got it!”
The Jade Emperor took a deep breath and told Yang Jing, “Do you think the expert only wanted to look at the beasts? Your guess is wrong. You’re too shallow. Your thinking’s too shallow!”
He paused. Then, he asked, “What are the implications of the beasts’ paintings? It means that the expert knows what they look like. Perhaps the expert painted it himself! He doesn’t need to know what they look like!
“Yang Jing, haven’t you realized that the expert took out the book as soon as you mentioned poultry? The hint’s obvious, right?”
Yang Jing instantly understood. He asked, “Emperor, do you mean that the expert wants me to hunt the beasts for poultry?”
“Most likely!”
The Empress nodded and analyzed, “Did you say that the expert sounded curious? He isn’t curious about their appearances. He’s curious about how they taste!”
The Jade Emperor had a wise glimmer in his eyes. He brushed his beard and said, “The Empress is right! The Dragons and the Kirins were already meals for the expert. So, I guess that the implication’s obvious. This must be the expert’s cookbook!”
