I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 685 - 169: The Joy of Inventing History as the Mastermind

The next day, and the day after that.

The exploration and adventure of the Sacrificial Tomb continued.

The Embers Disaster in the Nine-State continued to erupt. The Human Race, with its numerous ancestral tombs and large population, found these two past absolute advantages turning into major disaster zones.

"The Human Race is at it again, fighting internally."

"Haha, they're deploying the Demon Ghost Kings against each other. They really are crafty, utterly insane, harming others without benefiting themselves. But why?"

"Humans are such terrifying creatures. The history of the Human Race is a history of internal conflict and self-destruction, always warring among themselves."

"Why does it seem like the Human Race doesn't have enough ancestral tombs? Because most of their ancestral tombs are enemy territories, and the Nursery is filled with ancient Human Race forbidden zone tombs, causing internal strife."

"If not for this, we would've been driven far beyond the Four Seas. We'd have no place to survive long ago."

...

To the pure Beast Race and Demon Race, the Human Race is a species of mad internal conflict, now showcasing this self-destruction vividly once again.

However, the outbreak of the Embers Disaster in the Human Race was fierce, and all the forbidden zone ancestral tombs in various Nurseries began to merge...

This made all races even more vigilant, accelerating their exploration of the Sacrificial Tomb.

They gradually discovered some ancient ancestral figures from various races, occasionally erupting with cryptic remarks.

They even started following some scripts.

Yet their cleverness lay in not directly describing how terrifying the behind-the-scenes forces were, instead subtly hinting at moments from their own lives.

For instance, the much-anticipated Dragon Ancestor was narrating past stories in the courtyard:

"How I wish one day I would suddenly awaken and find I was just sleeping in the earth, and all I've been through was just a dream! The squirrel next door brings me nuts, other mother snakes tell me to listen well in class. I look at the land filled with forest wilderness, full of vitality and hope."

This deeply emotional performance opened a childhood story.

Heart-wrenching, full of ups and downs, clearly adapted from all those heartbreaking melancholic movies, animations, and novels.

Everyone learned the ancient truth that the Dragon Ancestor was originally an ordinary snake, whose childhood friend met an untimely death, and a great disaster erupted in the world.

Countless beings perished and resurrected in tribes, forcing it to escape continually.

This tale was tragic, letting many understand the "ancient" story and discover traces of the mastermind's influence... pay attention in class? Who's teaching?

Elsewhere.

They saw the Phoenix was a loving couple.

They recounted their tragic past:

"That time of despair was a shadow we can never escape in our lifetime, life hanging by a thread, emerging from an overwhelming evolutionary torrent. We'll forever remember the moment we fully resurrected and reunited, it felt eternal."

"Yet perhaps in the future, we will also head towards the final death in our eventual battle with Xian."

...

An ancient elegy.

A bygone myth.

The Human Race, the Four Great Divine Beasts, and even the powerful races could find information from their ancient ancestors.

They were like players in a puzzle-solving game, pilgrims from the future, traversing time, step by step gathering information, piecing together fragments.

Ultimately, they obtained information from a mysterious flower ancestor.

"A conspiracy? What conspiracy? However, I have an heirloom, maybe I can give it to you."

"This was acquired from Xian..."

As soon as these words fell, all the Sea Race cultivators' eyes lit up.

A treasure for us?

Xian?

This tomb, they thought there were no ancient treasures to be had.

Since it was temporarily gathered, but now there were burial items to steal?

The mysterious ancient ancestor produced a brand new pseudo-human shaped Three Flowers and handed them over.

"This is?"

"An original pseudo-human plant? It must be a treasure!"

"Escort it back!"

In an instant, the youth prodigies of the Sea Race knew it symbolized an ancient powerful opportunity, rapidly leaving, planning to take it back to the Sea Race Dynasty, present it to the Bone King Emperor and others for study, which was sure to lead their Sea Race to prosperity.

But their strange behavior was quickly noticed.

"What have they discovered?"

"Stop them!"

A great battle erupted immediately, becoming increasingly intense.

Numerous cultivators with Immortal Spirit Roots acted swiftly, and the Meiling Fish Food God joined the fray, constantly honing his matchmaking skills.

He had a mischievous pastime, making some macho men fall in love, temporarily controlling them... This made the aware cultivators nauseous with rage, seeking to hunt down the Food God.

The Food God, however, cackled and ran wildly.

This battle unleashed numerous incredible techniques, some wicked and exaggerating heaven-defying divine powers, seemingly heralding the birth of the Immortal Path world.

Some heaven-defying divination techniques completely overturned people's perspectives.

The Xirong Divine Craftsman paved the way for the Immortal Path, and it was the first time various forces began showcasing their dominance in this era.

After the battle ended, some outstanding powerful cultivators gained renown across the Nine-State and Four Seas, and the Food God's heaven-defying Immortal Spirit Root earned him the title [Love Demon] among the new generation.

They held him in great awe, given the sheer embarrassment of his technique.

...

In the Nine-State and Four Seas, various forces rapidly joined the battlefield, but due to mutual agreements, only the Two-Phase Realm engaged in the Sacrificial Tomb, as no one wanted to lower themselves, bullying the weak.

"That thing must be extraordinary!"

"Seems to be the original pseudo-human plant!"

"In the hands of the Sea Race, chase!"

A pseudo-human shaped Three Flowers was enough to incite life and death battles among them.

From it, they sensed a hint of the Human God's aura, and it seemed that flower was exceedingly intelligent.

...

...

Sword Casting Manor.

"Our Xi Rong technology is truly superb." Ning Zheng said with an odd expression, unable to resist a mocking remark.

That thing was a newly propagated pseudo-human linear Celestial Spirit Root.

Though valuable, it was mass-producible here.

While they fought fiercely, Ning Zheng fished by the well, "Strangely, I feel a sense of superiority, strategizing, like overpowering others intellectually, clouding the world within, I'm in charge of command, while the blacksmiths execute."

"Just releasing some things sets up a massive contest, driving young Immortal Path prodigies completely mad."

He finally understood why Xin Xichen enjoyed this so much.

Intellectual warfare was also combat.

It's truly exhilarating.

Intellect occupying the high ground.

Like a deceased person looking down on another dead person for being dead.

"The enjoyment of the Human God, along with other masterminds behind the , this dark pleasure of toying with epochs, I've grasped it."

He placed the fishing rod on the wellhead, beneath it an endless ocean, holding a steaming hot cup of tea, enjoying the tranquility of time.
