[In 2883, having nothing pressing to attend to, you chose to settle in the Vast Ocean of Waves.]

[You've dealt with Zuo Fei, the array master at the core of the protective array of Wangyang Island.]

[Because the mastermind behind ordering the Mermaid King to eliminate Yun Shi was none other than Zuo Fei! (Chapter 228)]

On a dark and stormy night, you abandoned the ore and then used your true essence to manipulate Zuo♂Fei's body, silently dragging him out of Wangyang Island and throwing him into the lair of a Three Realms Sea Monster.

Then you see him begging for mercy, promising the siren he could become a traitor, an inside man.

Relieved, she calmly killed him and the siren.

[There was another man named Wei Yang who, when the siren attacked the island, chose to kill his wife and children, becoming an inside agent for the human race. In the end, he also died while passing on intelligence, completely opposite to the person mentioned above.]

You watched him enjoying a heartwarming moment with his family, nodded, and left after leaving behind a large amount of resources.

[...]

On average, one Supreme Being will come to you every week to request additional skill points.

And you also asked them to do you a small favor—kill a third-realm sea monster.

This is not a difficult task for the Supreme Beings; they only need to search carefully.

As a token of gratitude, you also offered a reward: a guaranteed minimum.

[If they send you the corpse of a third-realm sea monster before the blessing of essence, you guarantee that if this blessing unfortunately fails, you will compensate them with your ten chances each year!]

The failure rate is currently around 5%, and you'll draw 2-3 unlucky individuals each year, but you always make up for it afterwards.

You used the remaining seven or eight opportunities for bestowing blessings each year on Qin Zhenhai.

Qin Zhenhai is now truly torn between love and hate for you; his emotions are incredibly complex. Although you constantly torment him, you treat him exceptionally well in other ways!

This is a rare blessing that many supreme beings can only receive once every ten years or so, yet he receives it seven or eight times a year!

[You're saying you just find him pleasing to the eye, and you're also giving Qin Zhenhai a potential upper limit of seven times!]

"It wasn't easy for Lao Qin to break through to the Supreme Realm," you sighed softly.

Last year, you didn't plan for Qin Zhenhai to break through due to a sense of crisis because his "foundational foundation" was insufficient.

Since reaching the peak of the Third Realm, Qin Zhenhai has been stationed in the Vast Sea of ​​Condensation. The Vast Sea of ​​Condensation is the weakest region among the human race's forces. Even as a domain lord, it would take him seven or eight hundred years to fully replenish his resources.

Yun Shou: "...It seems his breakthrough last time wasn't perfect."

[This time, each time you bestowed an essence upon him, you made him consume top-tier, supreme-level, rapidly absorbable martial arts aptitude within those sixty seconds. Therefore, Qin Zhenhai's foundation was full by the fifth essence blessing alone.]

[Now, when he breaks through, his aura will be at least 180,000 li in size, and with his essence improving year by year, it will only get higher and higher...]

In the same year, the sea creatures protested against the human race.

[The human race's supreme being previously broke the rules by attacking the three giant sea monsters of the Vast Ocean's Condensing Waves, and they tolerated it!]

[Because the three giants of the sea monsters are nominally half-demons, and the supreme being who made the move is Yun Shou, currently the most prominent human.]

So they tolerated it.

However, the fact that a large number of third-realm sea monsters have been hunted down in the Vast Ocean, and that those responsible are all powerful human figures from other major regions, is going too far.

[Sea Clan: "Just because humans are one of the three major races, does that mean they can be so unreasonable!?"]

Human: "Yes."

[Sea Clan: "You casually send your Supreme Beings to fight over disputed territory. Aren't you afraid that other races will do the same?!"]

[Human: "You can give it a try."]

[Sea creature: "..."]

[Sea Clan: "Hmph! We'll forgive you this time, but you can't do this in other great domains!"]

After making those harsh words, they quickly backed down, summoning large numbers of sea monsters from the Vast Ocean to return to the sea and completely abandon this territory.

Under normal circumstances, the human race has neither the energy nor the benefit, so the Supreme Being rarely bothers with peripheral domains like the Vast Ocean Waves.

But things are different now, for two reasons.

[One reason is because it was your request!]

[As your mood improves, the success rate of your blessings will increase. Adding one or two points to the Supremes' blessings each year can offset the minor discontent and protests of the Sea Clan and allow them to surpass them by a large margin!]

Even if you don't guarantee these supreme beings a minimum reward, they will still hunt sirens to please you.

The second reason, indirectly speaking, is still because of you!

With your existence, the supreme strength and rate of progress of the human race will experience a terrifying leap forward in the next few centuries!

[Each Supreme Being's stats increased three to four times, resulting in an overall combat power increase of dozens of times!]

At the same time, resource consumption will increase three to four times... so they need more and more territory!

Humans, expand!

The first step in this expansion is to make those disputed border areas undisputed!

In 2884, due to the large-scale recall of the three realms of sea monsters from the Vast Ocean's Waves, some supreme beings chose to cross the border.

"Hello, sea creatures? Here's the thing, we, the Vast Ocean Waves, have lost a few sea monsters here. I need to enter your territory to kill one and bring it back."

[Of course, whether these supreme beings killed the recalled sea monsters is another matter, but the corpses they brought back were definitely not human.]

[The sea race was enraged by the human supreme's blatant act of crossing borders to attack and kill the sea race.]

"Protest! A massive protest!"

"Condemnation! Strong condemnation!"

[But this is limited to condemnation.]

Many Sea Lords suppressed their anger and humiliation, but dared not escalate the situation or truly break with the human race.

Although they knew that two powerful figures were hidden within their ranks, that wasn't enough; they couldn't reveal themselves!

They still need to lie low, waiting for the right moment to rise to the top of this Azure Domain and become the strongest race!

[And now, although they have surpassed the three races in combat power as true kings, they still have to endure!]

"It's like I've done nothing to offend you sea creatures."

"Kicking you sea creatures is like kicking cotton."

[In 2886, at the age of thirty-one, after seventeen years, you have advanced to the intermediate human level.]

[The essence is 4047%, which multiplied by 90 times, making it the newly promoted pseudo-king.]

[And as far as you know, the strongest human being currently is a mid-level Earthly Sovereign, Shi Lan.]

[His base stats are approximately 50 times greater, while his Holy Body is exceptionally powerful, providing over nine times the multiplier, resulting in an overall strength of 480 times!]
