Wu Qi had a month and a half before the sacrifice ceremony. In other words, by accelerating the time to the fastest speed that his current ability permitted, that was, two thousand times, he had three thousand months to cultivate in seclusion, or two hundred and fifty years.

He suddenly understood why when there was a need, Great Yu could produce a great number of formidable warriors and Oracles in a very short space of time. If it were not for the fact that the lifespan of the human race had limited this crazy method of time acceleration, he suspected Great Yu would long have an army of Primordial experts.

The cultivation technique of human race was easy to achieve a considerable result to begin with. Through the time acceleration ability of the Supreme Towers, Great Yu would only need three to five days to produce an army of soldiers who were as strong as Gold Immortals. It was no wonder Great Yu could fight against the Heaven for so many years and yet still standing strong. The huge-crowd strategy they used was more than enough to give the Heaven a headache. It took eons for an immortal to become a Gold Immortal, but Great Yu could produce soldiers and Oracles of the same grade in just three to five days. The difference was significant.

Had it not because of Great Yu’s conservative and rigid nature, which made them strictly adhered to their ancestral teachings and only stayed on Pangu Continent, they would have long defeated the Heaven.

The concentration of natural energy and Pangu Sacred Energy a hundred million miles below the surface of You Xiong Plain had reached a level that made Wu Qi nearly went crazy. He had never seen crystallized natural energy and Pangu Sacred Energy, and now he was surrounded by these freaky things. In the ocean of liquid natural energy floated numerous energy crystals of different sizes, some as large as tens of thousands of miles around. The energy contained in them was so concentrated and powerful that just the energy leaking from them had distorted the surrounding void.

There was no way to describe his current feeling. ‘I am a mice in a barn full of rice!’ Wu Qi thought. Without hesitation, he produced Dark Yin Celestial Tower and began to crazily absorb the natural energy in the surrounding. All the disciples of Underhand Sect, the men he could trust and use, and an army of a million carefully selected soldiers he took from Dong Hai Province, were hiding inside the tower.

Sticky liquid natural energy and Pangu Sacred Energy poured whistling into the tower, caught everyone within off guard and washed over them. Many were sent tumbling all over the place, and some were crying for help. For a moment it was chaos within the tower. But soon after, some of them had realized what was that. While the soldiers were still clueless, Patriarch Jiang Yun, Lord Xiansheng, Supremacy Three Flame, and other immortals had cried out in shock, and immediately they sat down cross-legged, entering deep meditation.

Meanwhile, Wu Qi opened his interstitial world. Streams of chaotic energy slithered out like serpents to devour the energy crystals, which drifted aimlessly like mountains. Looking at these huge crystals, Wu Qi’s eyes shot with blood. Excitedly, he brought one crystal after another into his interstitial world, while exercising Myriad Harmonization Grand Magic to absorb the vast and limitless energy in the surroundings.

Would anyone care if a drop of water vanished from the Pacific Ocean?

Of course, no one would care, and no one would notice that either. Though Wu Qi was crazily plundered the energy of this boundless ocean of natural energy, it was as if someone had just drunk a mouthful of water out of an ocean that was as large as a million Pacific Oceans. Nobody even noticed what he was doing deep underground.

This was also the main reason why Great Yu forbade any immortal from entering within a ten-billion-mile radius of You Xiong Plain without permission. Because as long as an immortal could sneak into You Xiong Plain and go deep under the ground without being caught, he or she would be able to freely use the natural energy for cultivation. And as the energy here was too vast to be measured, there was no way for Great Yu to monitor it. Therefore, in order to prevent immortals from stealing the energy, Great Yu simply closed off the entire You Xiong Plain. Any immortal who dared to approach it would be executed instantly, save the special emissaries of the Heaven like Liu Bang.

But even the special emissaries of the Heaven were constantly monitored by Great Yu. They could cultivate with the rich natural energy on the surface, but if they dared to sneak under the ground, they would be immediately faced with violent repression.

Only the Supreme Oracles of Great Yu had the privilege of entering the underground of You Xiong Plain at any time to absorb the natural energy and Pangu Sacred Energy. All the various powerful clans in Liangzhu had their own Supreme Oracles, and because of that they could always produce experts, generation after generation, as to maintain their positions and powers on Pangu Continent. With his current status of a Supreme Oracle, and as he was promoted to King of Dong Hai Province, even if someone did find out that Wu Qi was crazily plundering at the energy here, no one would raise a finger at him.

Of course, the number of soldiers in his Dark Yin Celestial Tower was a little bit too many. But which powerful clans in Great Yu did not train themselves a powerful private army in secret? Ignoring others, just Ji Ao himself had a private army of several million soldiers, which was known to the public and permitted by the Human Emperor. And how did he train this army? Well, with the same method Wu Qi was using right now!

Hand in hand, Wu Qi and Princess Zhang Le sat cross-legged on a huge purple crystal with a diameter over a hundred thousand miles. They were crazily devouring the surrounding energy like two black holes. Above them, 108 Kunwu Swords had formed into Fiend Slaying Sword Formation, and were constantly drawing and purifying energy before injecting it into them. Their divine souls had also connected as one, and Wu Qi was constantly sending the princess all his understandings of the Heavenly Dao after stepping into the Primordial realm, while using his own blood essence and divine soul to forcibly elevate the strength of her divine soul and cultivation base.

In Lord Buddha’s Great Light Indestructible Amitabha Treasure Scripture there was the supreme divine ability of the Buddhism League, which was called the ‘Great Epiphany of Amitabha’. It was also the same divine ability Lord Buddha had used on Buddha Futu, an ability that could transfer one’s own cultivation base, magic power, and blood essence to another being.

And Wu Qi had the Myriad Harmonization Grand Magic, which not only gave him the ability to devour external things to supply to his own needs, but also allowed him to send everything he owned over to the princess. Vast energy essence and the understandings of the Heavenly Dao were being sent into Princess Zhang Le’s body in an endless stream. Her cultivation level was increasing steadily, her understandings of the Primordial Dao of Divinity had become deeper and deeper, and while the number of mystic arts she mastered was increasing, they also became stronger and stronger.

Under Wu Qi’s guidance, and with her inheritance of the complete Primordial Dao of Divinity, lying in front of Princess Zhang Le was a bright and smooth path. She only needed to spend a little time striding down this path, and soon she would be able to push her way up the Primordial realm, which was also called the level of Innate Ancient God among the ancient gods themselves. All she lacked now was a reserve of divine power, and that was what Wu Qi’s cultivation technique was best at.

Inside Dark Yin Celestial Tower, except for the two Blood-draining Celestial Fiends Wu Qi had left outside, some of the other sixteen fiends were sitting cross-legged in different halls in his appearance, teaching the various cultivation techniques he had learned to different groups of people.

Patriarch Jiang Yun and all the orthodox immortals were listening to a fiend teaching them the Innate Pure Yang Universal Scripture, a Primordial-grade cultivation technique Wu Qi had seized from the Sovereign. A wisp of Divine Flame of Great Tranquility was flickering in the void next to them. Enormous energy was constantly pouring into their bodies, so that none of them had to waste time to absorb energy but focus their effort in understanding the profound wisdom.

Even then, the Divine Flame of Great Tranquility was slowly fusing with them. A green, glaze-like fire had begun to flicker faintly all over Supremacy Three Flame. As someone who was gifted at fire magic, he had already begun to master the amazing innate divine flame. Judging by his progress, Wu Qi’s Underhand Sect would soon have one more expert alchemist.

Lord Xiansheng, Catfish, the Dragon King of East Sea, and all the aquatic demons who had the possibility to cultivate into True Dragons, had gathered around another fiend, who was exercising Dragon Transformation Script and teaching them all the different mystic arts of the dragon. Off to the side, Ao Buzun had coiled up his body lazily and was cultivating all by himself. However, from time to time he would give them a tip or two, and every time when he spoke, he would immediately enlighten these little aquatic demons.

The human disciples of the Underhand Sect were gathered in a great hall listening to the teaching of various mystic arts, while the demon disciples were being taught the mystic arts of the demon in another hall. In the complete legacy of Scroll of Stealing the shadow had given Wu Qi there were all kinds of natal divine abilities that belonged to the great demons of the ancient time, which could not have been more appropriate to teach to the demon disciples. To Wu Qi’s surprise, some of these demon disciples were of the blood of ancient great demons. Though thin, they managed to awaken their own bloodlines in just ten years, and since then their cultivation bases soared by leads and bounds.

The one million soldiers from Dong Hai Province were undergoing cruel training in hundreds of huge hall. Through brutal physical training and constant brainwashing, Wu Qi was confident that they would be ready to sacrifice their lives for him when they left the tower after 250 years. Of all the soldiers, many had excellent aptitudes, and as the cultivation technique of human race was easy to achieve a considerable result, some managed to break through into the realm of Second Pangu Heaven in just a decade. Even Wu Qi was shocked by their speed.

At the bottom of Dark Yin Celestial Tower, Wu Qi had made a medicinal garden hundreds of thousands of miles around. Several idle Blood-draining Celestial Fiends were carefully tending to the various herbs grown inside. Sometimes, Princess Zhang Le would take a break from her meditation and come to the garden to help. With the aid of her divine power, the harvest of these herbs was very satisfying. In a very short time, the ingredients for some basic life-prolonging pills were already plentiful. Thus, the one million soldiers no longer have to worry that they would die at the moment they step out of the tower because they had exhausted their lives.

Supported by the limitless energy of You Xiong Plain, the people around Wu Qi were undergoing a tremendous transformation.

On top of that, from time to time Wu Qi would personally elevate the cultivation base of Lu Chengfeng, Yan Bugui, and a few others who were close to him. In just a few short years, these people had all stepped into the realm of Heaven Immortal, and after that their cultivation bases had been advancing swiftly and vigorously.

Under his effort, his power grew rapidly.
