Your Lord Has A Screw Loose?-Chapter 318 - 320: Human Emperor Technique, Heaven’s Will Blade

Chapter 318: Chapter 320: Human Emperor Technique, Heaven’s Will Blade

“Damn, Ji Sheng took the wrong path, and I underestimated the Art of Numerology in this world. This is the Human Emperor Technique,” Qin Muye’s voice surfaced in Ji Shan’s mind, which slightly overwhelmed him.

“What Human Emperor Technique? Dad, can you stop blurting out, you’re messing up my train of thought,” Ji Shan said somewhat helplessly.

The focal points of the two were different, resulting in different directions and outcomes in their research.

Ji Shan was more like a traditional genius protagonist, practicing spells and seeking Enlightenment to develop various Divine Skills.

Qin Muye, on the other hand, pursued history, unearthed principles, and took a pragmatic approach.

“It seems our findings are quite different, what did you discover?” Qin Muye asked with some curiosity.

...

“I’ve added quite a bit to the framework of a Qi Refiner, and I plan to name it Divine Skills. Currently, I’m trying to develop the first Divine Skill using the ‘Three Changes Technique,’ ” Ji Shan explained.

“Interesting, then take your time practicing. I’m going to research the Human Emperor Technique,” Qin Muye’s approach to the latter part of a Qi Refiner’s path was actually open-ended; had he forcibly fixed the subsequent path, it would have buried Ji Shan’s talent.

For Ji Shan, he had his own path to follow.

Hearing this, Ji Shan grimaced, “We agreed to share everything, yet you didn’t give me half of it.”

“We looked at the same content. It’s not my fault you didn’t notice it yourself, and besides, with your personality, you definitely wouldn’t be interested,” Qin Muye then transmitted the Human Emperor Technique to him.

Indeed, after a glance, Ji Shan lost interest because it was essentially a piece of history.

It recorded the story of ancient Human Emperors who led humanity using divination, cultivating the land with the Slash-and-burn method, which formed civilization.

“The Three Changes Technique” consists of three volumes, each recording the history and legacy of one Human Emperor, though the details of their names and surnames are vague.

Back then, the purity of human hearts combined with the natural flow of Daoist Skills made the original Art of Numerology much more powerful and precise.

More importantly, it seemed that the Human Emperor had a method to supplement longevity or use something as a substitute for longevity; Ji Shan wasn’t clear on the specifics, and Qin Muye didn’t say, only mentioning that he was still researching it and would discuss it later.

As for Ji Shan’s Divine Skills, Qin Muye took a look and lost interest—not because they weren’t impressive, but because they weren’t quite suitable for him, more suited for a Qi Refiner like Ji Shan.

“Heaven’s Will is like a blade; truly fitting for the Child of Destiny, this is really damn smooth,” Qin Muye said with an odd expression.

He needed a blade to sever the Netherworld, and the “Mystical Lord Seven Chapter Secret Scroll” was definitely not suitable, and not worthy to be that blade.

Originally, Qin Muye planned to wait until the seven volumes of the secret scroll were perfected before crafting the blade, but unexpectedly, Ji Shan sent him a blade embryo.

“In ancient times, when there were no tides of Spiritual Energy, Heaven’s Will existed, and this is truly interesting.”

Heaven’s Will was a force akin to Chaos Chaos, although seemingly more proactive, not only rewarding the good and punishing the evil but also guiding the three Human Emperors in developing human civilization.

Thus, in this world, some of the highest gods were essentially variants of Heaven’s Will, colloquially referred to as the Lord in Heaven.

If he could use Heaven’s Will as the blade, Qin Muye only needed to plan a bit to cut off this tributary of the Netherworld.

But the problem was also evident, where was Heaven’s Will?

Indeed, within the Human Emperor Technique, there existed a method to communicate with Heaven through witch sacrifices, which Qin Muye temporarily used to reach out to Earth, but the result was empty with no one responding.

It was as if he was dialing an obsolete number.

“So, Heaven’s Will is gone?” Qin Muye felt a slight chill.

“No wonder there’s the Netherworld’s invasion, and no one stands up against the tides of Spiritual Energy or sees through the truth. It’s not that Heaven’s Will is weak, but that Heaven’s Will was killed by the Netherworld in some unknown era,” he concluded.

Now he was certain, the indigenous Transcendent Technique left by the Human Emperor was the true Transcendent Dharma Door, while Spiritual Energy and Cultivators were outsiders.

He also understood why the Art of Numerology from a relatively more ancient era didn’t explain the reason for lifespan reduction. Because back then, the so-called divination was more like a direct inquiry, connecting directly with Heaven’s Will.

Things were different now because, without Heaven’s Will, the original pattern had shifted from being a listener to taking action, a change that came at a price.

As for why Ji Sheng and other Ji Family members had not discovered the “Human Emperor Technique” within the “Three Changes Technique,” the reason was simple. It had nothing to do with intelligence but rather with scholarship. Qin Muye, relying on his keen understanding of history, had unearthed this long-lost chapter of history.

Didn’t you see that even Ji Shan with his powerful intelligence failed to discover it? This is because each field of expertise requires a specific skill set, and intelligence is divided accordingly.

Ji Shan’s intelligence lay in the paths of Dao, Spell, and Art, whereas Qin Muye was different; his was in history. He had triggered a genocide engine plus “five defects and three lacks,” which was considered defying the heavens. He had already resumed the temporary skills and style of a historian and a mysticologist.

After all, he could deduce the location and origins of relics from mere inscriptions, let alone the more obvious “Human Emperor Technique.”

“Heaven’s Will Blade… gone?”

“No, it must still be around. Otherwise, such coincidences would be impossible.”

“Oh, if Ji Shan is the Child of Destiny, then it’s not a problem.”

Qin Muye initially wanted to refute the coincidence, but once he considered that Ji Shan, not he, had actually obtained the “Three Changes Technique,” everything seemed much more reasonable.

“There might still be some remnants left. I need to figure out how to find them,” Qin Muye felt that Heaven’s Will wouldn’t be so easily extinguished.

If it really were gone, then… Qin Muye would have to switch to another blade.

The Heaven’s Will Blade was merely an accident in the beginning; Qin Muye hadn’t planned for it at all.

“I reckon it’s not going to work. Without the Main Character Aura, it won’t likely end up in my hands, but Ji Shan can.” Qin Muye thought that since Ji Shan had obtained the “Three Changes Technique,” he could probably get his hands on Heaven’s Will as well.

The Child of Destiny essentially equated the Main Character Aura.

Even at times, it proved more useful than the Main Character Aura, especially in situations like a world crisis, as the son of the Heavenly Father, he was undoubtedly the priority for nurturing.

But if we were talking about a BUG, it would still be the Main Character Aura; after all, this thing was likely to be unreasonable, unlike the Child of Destiny, which tended to be more rational and required logic in many situations.

Like how his first having a Ji Family identity enabled him to acquire the “Three Changes Technique,” rather than it just falling from the sky.

As for whether Heaven’s Will still existed, it did not affect Qin Muye’s ability to sever this branch of the Netherworld invading the Tidal World.

If it exists, it is a backup; if not, he would continue striving.

“Ganoderma Life Extension Talisman, it is done.”

Above the Netherworld, the Heavenly Venerate sat on a six-petal lotus made of bones and flesh and fierce ghosts of Yin Souls, opening his eyes, and fierce skeletal remains, armored and scaled like dragons and tigers, emerged from the water.

This world naturally had demons, but currently, there were no animals or plants capable of transforming. Instead, the Netherworld housed many Demon Souls and demon corpses.

This group of demon corpses and Demon Souls were gradually retreating from death and coming back to life using the “Immortal Sand Soul Returning Talisman” and “Ganoderma Life Extension Talisman.”

However, the negative emotions of resentment and brutality within them did not disappear; instead, they intensified with their resurrection.

Qin Muye first fixed their forms using the “Earth Gang Summoning Talisman.”

“An incomplete resurrection; with body and soul secured, what remains is the ‘Demon Capturing Talisman’ to merge body and soul, ‘Taiyin Corpse Disintegration and Transformation Talisman’ to reverse death into life, then using the ‘Mystical Realm of Ascension Fixed View Talisman’ to send them away from realms like the Underworld, and finally, ‘Orthodox Divine Might Covenant Talisman’ to legalize it.”

For now, this was merely a sentient corpse without a brain, prone to madness at any moment.

Although he used the “Mystical Lord Seven Chapter Secret Scroll” as the resurrection mechanism for his territory, it wasn’t meant to serve solely as a resurrection mechanism. Being simple in this regard wasn’t necessary because, as a Spirit Monster, Qin Muye could completely utilize the Endless Abyss to create a much more powerful resurrection mechanism.

Through this research, he simply wanted to deepen his understanding of the Netherworld and the principles of life and death, an excellent topic of study given it was a specialty product of this world. If he later severed the branch of the Netherworld, there would no longer be an opportunity for research.

Therefore, this project naturally had to be approached on a larger scale, not just scrimping and saving to complete a task. After all, if Qin Muye truly wanted to complete the task, he had many methods, even at an SSS level. However, he knew that missing out on the Netherworld would be like leaving a treasure mountain empty-handed.

Qin Muye could hardly accept that.
