Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies

A spatial ripple appeared within Yan Zaizen’s previously carved impromptu cavern home. From this spatial ripple, three figures emerged suddenly.

Yan Zaizen’s eyes were bright as he calmly stepped out and observed the surroundings. Damian and Amy had two different expressions, the former was stunned into disbelief and latter was solemn and confused.

However, they both had one similar thought: "Master is powerful!"

Yan Zaizen, however, had a pair of furrowed brows and bright eyes. This new position was new to him and he didn’t have a good idea how to start. When he thought of carrying out his plans, he returned to this cavern but it was wholly lacking.

"This isn’t quite befitting of me, is it?" As he thought about the situation more, if his living quarters were a small cave in a mountain side, wouldn’t that bring shame to his name?

"Miste-Master, I..." Amy stepped up, attempting to ask a question. It could be seen that it’ll take some getting used to before she can unconsciously accept this man as her master.

Yan Zaizen interrupted by waving his hand. "Do you accept me as your Master?" He asked once again, but this was only for one thing.

With her intelligence, she immediately recognized Yan Zaizen’s meaning and quickly kowtowed three times in acceptance. Damian looked at this ’Junior Sister’ of perform the rite of formal acceptance and respect. He couldn’t help but suspect her age.

She looked young but something told him that she was nearly or exceeding a century in age. After all, her cultivation was top-tier and typically the age of those exceeded their appearance. His master was a perfect example.

He may be tall, had an outstanding physique, but his peerless looks and youthful appearance exuding a youthful vigor was likely a lie. He may be thousands or tens of thousands of years old.

To be the ’Senior Brother’ of someone many times his age felt a little odd, even if it was based on time of acceptance.

Yan Zaizen didn’t care about Damian’s childish reservations. Instead, decided to bestow his two gifts of fortune to Amy.

He extended the index finger of his right hand and pointed between Amy’s brows. The finger looked slow, but regardless of how one saw it, the moment Yan Zaizen’s finger was extended it had already touched Amy’s glabella.

"This isn’t a gift of fortune for our relationship, but a chance. Your foundation is unstable and filled with impurities. I shall give you a chance to rectify this issue that would’ve plagued you till death." Yan Zaizen tried to sound wise and powerful, and he took on an expression filled with dignity and intelligence.

Amy was startled by Yan Zaizen’s words, but when she instinctively wanted to defend herself, she realized she couldn’t. Her foundational realms had only been at the mid-stages before her ascension to the Qi Unification Realm, and her cultivation base had been supported by mid quality pills that could often leave impurities in one’s system.

Seeing that Yan Zaizen was going to address this issue, she was confused. From her knowledge, when one reached the Qi Unification Realm, their foundation was mostly set, unable to be changed even by top tier pills.

Yet, this new master of hers said otherwise! If so, how strong was he that even the top Mortal Factions of the world couldn’t achieve such a feat? Could he be a cultivator that stepped into the heavenly way?

Before she could wonder more, a surge of an unknown force swept her body for a split second. Suddenly, she felt dizzy and weak, nearly falling to her knees. It was only the white cover of light that kept her propped up, obviously controlled by Yan Zaizen’s will.

"My...my...?!" Her eyes widened in shock as she inspected her cultivation base.

Even Damian was startled by the split second shift. One moment he couldn’t get a clear indication of Amy’s cultivation base, but then he could!

Peak Qi Foundation Realm!

Yan Zaizen had regressed her cultivation and even removed the traces of unification within her system. Her meridians, pathways, and dantians were no longer fused into a singular whole, meaning her cultivation had been wrested away with a thought!

Yan Zaizen nodded slightly at his work. To de-unify one’s essence system was quite a delicate feat, but his cultivation base was just too powerful. It was nothing more than a thought away. As for her qi-essence in her body, it had been completely washed away.

Even her meridians were returned to their base state, unable to process anything more than qi. It was a thorough restart without permanent crippling.

Yan Zaizen didn’t do this to Damian, his foundation was non-existent, and his cultivation was only at the initial-Qi Cyclone Realm.

Ignoring Amy’s baffled expression, he tapped her forehead once more. A surge of white flame engulfed her in a similar fashion to Damian. However, unlike before, her body wasn’t infused with dense lifeforce. Instead, the white flame targeted all the impurities within her body and burned it away.

Then, the white flame integrated into her body and gave her a similar baptism.

Despite taking a while to explain, it all happened between two taps of his finger.

"Your first gift and your second gift." Waving his hand, he brought out a flying sword that was nearly identical to Damian’s. The only difference was the color, which was white. Yan Zaizen didn’t give Amy time to process all this. Instead, he removed his finger from her forehead and rubbed the Meteor Ring slightly.

Two amber gold-colored martial art outfits appeared. These outfits were also sky-rank armaments, but top grade and defensively oriented. He had to make some alterations such as embedding his spiritual sense to operate the functions on their behalf. After all, they couldn’t execute these outfits functions alone.

"The third gift, outfits signifying your status of the an disciple of I, Yan Zaizen." He briefly smiled and looked at the insignia etched onto the shoulder and back of the outfit. It may be a little too revealing, but he was always a person who operated overtly.

The insignia was a warhammer with a swirling design etched on its side. It was upright and stood proudly facing the sky above. This sky had faint cracks on it, as if it was near a state of collapse. It was simplistic but carried many things related to him and his beliefs.

When Damian saw those uniforms, his eyes became more and more brighter. In the span of a few minutes, his life had underwent a total shift. With a master like this, even if he was male, wouldn’t he be able to take care of his father forever?

Yan Zaizen could almost read Damian’s thoughts and couldn’t help but chuckle. He tapped out towards the entrance and set up a soul energy barrier. With this, no one should interrupt them unless the Realmlord herself arrived.

"Here," passing the outfits to the two, he also took out a high-grade essence crystal. With a crush, he shattered the crystal and dispersed it into this cave only. Suddenly, this cave became the highest quality cultivation location on the planet. It was suffused with top-quality essence with no impurities.

A single breath was astonishing to any cultivator, especially these two whose cultivations were near the initial steps.

Wait.

Yan Zaizen felt like something was missing. While he pondered, Damian and Amy was in a state of euphoria. Essence was like a tonic to all cultivators, the greater the quality and density, the more relaxed they were. Some even describe the feeling as orgasmic.

"Oh!" Yan Zaizen nearly smacked his forehead, but realized he was in the presence of his disciples, so he held back. "Qi Cultivation Methods." Yan Zaizen had never cultivated a specific method, his qi, qi-essence, and even his true-essence was mostly non-attributed. They were often just infused with law energy, so it was easy to mistake the two.

Checking the Meteor Ring, he realized he owned a ton, an absolute ton, of qi cultivation methods. He had robbed too many sects, forces, even a realm and race once, so his possessions were outstanding to say the least. Since most of them were heavenly cultivators, they obviously had many methods. Some of these methods were just obtained and kept by them just because.

He felt baffled and lost. There was at least several hundred thousand methods for qi cultivation alone! How could he decide which would be the best for them? Then, his headache grew even more intense.

"Not only do I have to give them qi methods, but also arts!" If the number of methods he had was in the hundreds of thousands, then arts for qi was tens of millions.

"Hmph! Truly useless," Pinaka voice resounded. Suddenly, four books emerged from his Meteor Ring. Yan Zaizen grabbed the books and felt shocked.

"Penta-Elemental Source Method? Holy Wood Sage Method?" Yan Zaizen saw the two qi methods. One cultivated the fusion of five elements and the other cultivated wood-attribute to an extreme. They both were outstanding methods, obviously they originated from a top-tier force, perhaps the Lycans.

Looking at the other two books, his eyes shined brightly, "Five Elemental Heaven Method and the Forest God’s Mantra." They were both conceptual methods, within which was a set of suitable arts ranging from aura-based to even divine-based arts. It was astonishing and he remembered these books.

They were in the Meteor Ring at the very start!

They were both concepts that reached to sovereign-level! Yan Zaizen grew excited.

He took the posture of a master and flicked the wood-based books to Amy and the elemental books to Damian. "Here’s the cultivation legacies suitable for you both, read and practice it diligently. If you have any questions, you can save them until I come back." Yan Zaizen said before he turned and vanished into the spatial void.

The two grabbed the books with disbelief written on their faces. Curiosity abound, they immediately opened and read it thoroughly. While Damian was just excited to see his first cultivation methods, Amy was stunned and grew as ashen as death.

These methods were very similar to the legendary god methods! Inscribed within was the process to become a god within the heavens!

Of course, this only entailed reaching the Sovereign-level of an law, thereby becoming equal to gods beneath the heaven for that law, rivaling the heavens!

-----

Yan Zaizen appeared in outer space of the Graceful Sword Realm, "You’re the best," Yan Zaizen sincerely said. Pinaka had spent the longest time reading through and looking through everything in the ring, so she knew it like the back of her hand. If it wasn’t for her, he would be thoroughly lost.

"Hmph!" She only snorted in response, but deep inside, Yan Zaizen could feel the beautifully triumphant smile she had on her face, and maybe even a slight blush.
