[Have you considered relying on Xiang Yang, this newly minted patron, to allow him to suppress those veteran rulers of the Spring and Autumn Period with over twenty times the essence and over twenty times the numerical value?]

[After achieving a harmonious relationship, you plan to increase Xiangyang and the future ascendant Beichenguang's essence by 7% each time, and increase the essence of everyone else by 1% each time.]

[While making the Yuantian Realm stronger to resist the calamity beasts, it also ensures that they will never be able to surpass your two eldest sons, waiting until you advance to the seventh realm.]

But you didn't expect that Xiangyang would completely overwhelm them!

[You probably never imagined... that because Xiangyang wasn't familiar with the other six rulers of the Spring and Autumn period, he didn't want you to associate with them as equals, thus placing himself a generation below them and forcing them to be a generation inferior in your eyes!]

"It was too forceful, but it aligns with his emotional intelligence."

"Was the person who told him about the existence of the Beast of Calamity among them?"

[You don't know, but the ruler of the Spring and Autumn Period (Zuo Tianxin) only told him, "There are calamities beyond the heavens, young man, I have high hopes for you," and then left, offering no benefits or support for his growth.]

Therefore, Xiangyang didn't see the other person as a selfless senior fighting on the front lines. With his simple and straightforward thinking, he only thought that the other person was urging him to level up and then go to the top of the outer realms.

This kid... has some demonic tendencies!

[They only restrain themselves slightly in front of a very few people.]

Why force them to acknowledge me as their father?

"You silly child, don't you know there's a saying, 'Each side has its own interpretation'?" You felt utterly helpless.

[But since Xiangyang has already gone this far, you can't very well change your mind and go back on your decision.]

Children also have self-esteem. A good godfather wouldn't embarrass his child in front of outsiders.

"That makes sense, but the main reason is that you want to hear them call you godfather too."

"How could I not understand myself?"

The transition from the sixth to the seventh realm represents complete transcendence, a transformation of the very essence of life. Facing them is like a mouse seeing a cat, a chicken seeing Arthur, or you seeing a giant cockroach flying towards you!

"While the latter example is quite apt, what's with the chicken and Arthur in the first example?"

It was a feeling of being completely crushed. Every cell in your body, every wisp of vital energy, every strand of your soul was gripped by primal fear. They roared madly that the being before you was invincible, forcing you to flee, forcing you to submit!

The gap between them is too vast, a difference between immortals and mortals. If you suspect these True Immortals of harboring ill intentions, many beings at the sixth realm wouldn't even be able to raise their hands before them!

But—not only were they beaten up by your godson, they'll soon have to call you godfather and adoptive father!

[You're only at the third level of the Heavenly Realm, and your physical magic system has just been upgraded to the sixth level of the fifth realm.]

[With sheer willpower, he raised his head and pointed his nostrils at the six of them!]

[...]

[Rewind three hours to the present.]

"Good, it seems safe now." Billions of miles away, you breathed a sigh of relief.

[Xiangyang tells you to stay where you are, saying he'll soon come to find you with the Spring and Autumn Period's supreme ruler to resolve these conflicts... But what if he can't defeat them, or what if he attracts a powerful enemy?]

[So of course you'd have to flee billions of miles away, constantly preparing to escape to the neighboring Yuan Tian Domain, and then rely on your ability to foresee the future to have your future self wait in your previous position to observe the outcome.]

Now that safety has been confirmed, you can finally rest assured and return to your original position, following the trajectory of that future event, to await Xiangyang's return.

[Time advances three hours, arriving at that point in the future.]

[Sizzle—]

Your hands have split open, giving rise to eight hands in total on both sides!

"Wow, quite the background!"

Xu Ling'er obediently walked over and placed her head under your palm.

Although Xiangyang was somewhat speechless inside, he still compressed his 6.7-meter height and pressed his head against your palm.

[The other six rulers of the Spring and Autumn Period: "..."]

Just as the six of them were about to step forward, the fox-man elder Yuan Mingzun spoke up: "I have been to the Azure Domain before and have some understanding of this essential blessing."

He said leisurely, "As early as when young friend Yun..."

Xiang Yang punched him on the head: "You have no manners! How dare you call me 'little friend'?!"

Yuan Mingzun's face wrinkled like fox fur: "Back when Emperor Yun advanced to the demigod realm, his supernatural powers seemed to have changed. It no longer required stroking his head to take effect; it seems that pinching his fingers could also work, is that right?"

[Since you haven't given them the points as promised, and Yuan Mingzun uses the honorific "Yunhuang," Xiangyang has no way to retaliate.]

[You stare into Yuan Mingzun's slender fox eyes. Just 300 years ago, when you saw his image in the memory crystal, you trembled with fear, terrified that the source of his existence would be traced back to you, and you would be captured alive and made a slave.]

Now that the father is relying on his son's power, you just feel that this old fox is so cunning, he even remembered such tiny details.

He could only scoff, "Fine, fine, but since you understand this, you should also know that the success rate is highest when you touch your head!"

"The others are all unorthodox methods. If the blessing fails, I won't be the one who suffers the loss."

[Having said that, five fingers reached out from among the six Spring and Autumn Period rulers who were complete strangers to you. Even the bare stone spirit "Beng" chose to deform, extending a petrified finger.]

The only one to extend its head was the "Beast God."

Its appearance resembles a bear, but with many subtle differences. It is covered in thick, long black fur, stands upright, and seems to incorporate features of an ape.

The "Beast God" was originally over two hundred meters tall, but it has now been compressed to the size of a child to accommodate you.

[It placed the hairy head into your palm.]

[You used the power of the "Flesh Technique" system to create eight large hands, which each stroked three heads and pinched five fingers.]

It's time to give them some extra points.

[You take a deep breath. Essence Rewards and Punishments can now consume up to 42% of your True Essence and distribute it to multiple targets, increasing or decreasing each target's Essence by a maximum of 7%.]

Of the eight people present, Xiang Yang and Xu Ling'er each account for 14%, and as for the remaining 28%... you only plan to use 6%, adding 1% to each of the other six seventh-realm individuals.
