Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1565 - 418: Acquisition, Life Destruction Treasure Skill (5k)_3

"Please come inside and ask for tea."Upon entering the interior of the Flying Boat, it transformed into a secret chamber. Emperor Zhen was brewing a kind of needle leaf tea unique to Dazhen, and remarked.

"Dazhen has a Treasure Technique, called the Life Destruction Treasure Skill, which wields immense power of destruction."

Yu Ziqing picked up the teacup, took a sip, and tasted a slightly crisp bitterness.

He did not respond, just listened quietly. Since chatting with the Mountain Lord, he knew that many crucial things are not so easily lost to time.

"I rushed to the throne without actually knowing about such a thing.

After my brother returned, he vaguely hinted for me to find something, which I never did.

Later, when I heard about the Life Destruction Treasure Skill, I realized what my brother wanted me to find.

Indeed, it exists, always in Dazhen, but I never found it.

Only when I voluntarily recite this name do I manage to find it.

I tried to comprehend it, but could grasp nothing.

Only just now did I finally understand a bit of what the Life Destruction Treasure Skill truly is."

Emperor Zhen personally poured tea for Yu Ziqing, then stood up and performed a solemn bow.

"Thank you for everything you have done."

Yu Ziqing returned the bow, letting out a long sigh.

"So, can't you stop being cryptic? What exactly is it? Either say it clearly or don't speak half-words."

"Haha..." Emperor Zhen looked at Yu Ziqing in surprise and laughed out loud, "You too are annoyed by riddlers?"

"Besides the riddlers themselves, who isn't?"

Emperor Zhen nodded in agreement, pondered for a moment, and said.

"Actually, I can't explain clearly; it's something one can only understand intuitively, not through words, what I sensed.

It was only when I saw the earth's energy connecting with the Super Large Spirit Transformation Array, and the earth veins starting to rejuvenate through the array.

Life began to burgeon in Dazhen's northern region, and I suddenly understood.

The Life Destruction Treasure Skill, while capable of great destruction, first needs the comprehension of life, not just slaughter."

"Congratulations." Yu Ziqing clasped his hands in a gesture of congratulations.

He himself wasn't sure how he perfected his True Word Treasure Technique, and wasn't clear on how to deploy it.

But he understood that mastering any Treasure Technique was challenging.

"Can You Zhen learn it too?"

"My brother didn't master it. According to him, there are no records; it is passed down orally among the emperors of Dazhen.

But when he unexpectedly faced disaster, and I hurriedly ascended to the throne, there was no time to explain many things.

My brother is unwilling to return to Dazhen, making it even harder to clarify many things."

"Do you know why it must be like this?"

"I don't know, but it's always been this way through the generations, so there must be a reason." Emperor Zhen said calmly.

"Then I wish you success in mastering it soon, and when you do, there will be things for you to practice on."

"Once these matters are dealt with, I will go into seclusion next year."

When they exited the Flying Boat, Emperor Zhen bowed again in gratitude.

Without Yu Ziqing arranging this Super Large Spirit Transformation Array, he might never have had the hope of entry into the Life Destruction Treasure Skill.

Only by standing as Emperor Zhen and observing from the viewpoint of the entire Dazhen, sensing and comprehending those, did he finally have a chance of succeeding.

He might not understand too many things and did not delve deeply into some matters, but he knew clearly that, the moment he could enter the practice, some things would certainly change.

While comprehending the Life Destruction Treasure Skill, the first feeling was that all prior Emperors Zhen seemed to have been hiding the harsh and deteriorating conditions of Dazhen and holding on fiercely.

But even so, not revealing clearly, like the riddler of Dadui, was certainly annoying, and definitely for a reason.

Among the past Emperors Zhen, there were no riddlers!

Thinking of the riddler unsettled Emperor Zhen's breath, for previously understanding what a riddler was saying led him to have Li Xingchen struggle for half a year.

In the end, he barely found out that what the riddler said then meant absolutely nothing, without any meaning.

He nearly lost his composure.

Li Xingchen was tormented to a point of slight change in temperament, and now, no one dared to speak in circles to Li Xingchen, or he'd explode immediately.

What was even more frustrating was the totally meaningless words and poetry at the time seemed to gain meaning after two years, appearing to truly convey a message.

But this time, Emperor Zhen felt exhausted and didn't want to focus on it anymore, and Li Xingchen also laid it down.

After all, riddlers from Dadui came to Dazhen mainly concerning trade between Dadui and Dazhen. As for other matters, if they want to explore, let them; Dazhen in its current mess doesn't have that many secrets left.

If Dadui understands thoroughly, it would be easier and more convenient when making trades.

Emperor Zhen might not fully trust the people of Dadui, but he has considerable trust in Yu Ziqing. No matter what, he wouldn't push Dazhen to ruin.

If helping Dazhen could lead North Zhen to start nurturing vitality, Emperor Zhen would accept it.

Though he said he'd go into retreat next year, in truth, after the Super Large Spirit Transformation Array operated normally for a week, Emperor Zhen went alone to the extreme cold regions of North Zhen for enlightenment.

He seemed to learn from Yu Ziqing and become a hands-off administrator.

Through the years, Emperor Zhen gradually understood Dadui, and along with graduates returning from Jinlan Mountain, he gained some insights.

Having mostly cleared the Sealed Kings within Dazhen, along with trade deals with Dadui, the past few years brought some relief, and there was finally a trend of upward growth within Dazhen.

With such a grand environment, trying out many things learned from Jinlan Mountain and Dadui became feasible.

The outcomes of these trials weren't bad at all...

Now with new foundations and heritage, Emperor Zhen dared to go into seclusion for enlightenment.

Yu Ziqing was unaware he was being felt out like crossing a river by feeling the stones, as he was quite busy now.

He planned to recruit a few who performed exceptionally well or had exceptional talent in this grand project.

Especially those he considered near-dean level in knowledge and skill, though not high in cultivation realm, he had to recruit personally.

For others, either the Hungry Ghost Trading Company would recruit them, or the riddlers would, as there were many avenues.

The reason, naturally, was that Dadui also wanted to construct a Super Large Spirit Transformation Array.

After nurturing so many riddlers and spending so much money, having been busy in Dazhen for such a long time, the first Super Large Spirit Transformation Array was handed to Dazhen, which was precisely for this day.
