Teasing an old acquaintance can be a source of joy.

Looking at Zhao Yuan, whose soul was constantly emitting screams of despair, you couldn't help but smile with relief.

"Let bygones be bygones. After all, I'm not a petty or vindictive person."

"stretch."

"I just came here to play a joke on an old acquaintance, hahaha, isn't that funny?"

(Pfft)

[Zhao Yuan: Who said you're an old acquaintance?!]

[You casually used your energy to edit a simple intelligent program on Zhao Yuan. It wasn't anything too outrageous; it just made him spin for half an hour.]

[By the way, I'll spend this half-hour walking around the entire Yangyao Sect, specifically going to places with lots of people.]

[If someone tries to stop it, it will intelligently avoid them and use Binzhou flashbangs to repel them!]

"Should we force them back by rotating them, by flashing them, or by firing flashbangs?"

[Actually, almost no one could stop him, because after you swept through the entire Yangyao Sect with your spiritual power, you discovered that the sect's former grandmaster had already passed away, and Zhao Yuan was the one with the highest cultivation!]

[If you hadn't controlled his promiscuous behavior back then (Chapter 183), he truly would have been the rightful sect leader!]

The problem isn't actually that big now. Once he breaks through to the Grandmaster level, his actions today, like turning the bird around, will be automatically downplayed or glorified by his disciples, ignored, and even become a celebrated story for future generations.

[Perhaps in the future, disciples of the Yangyao Sect will even regard it as some kind of special breakthrough ritual!]

[Yangyao Sect...What is Yangyao?]

[Of course, it's Yang Yao, who's showing off his yang energy!]

The "Yangyao Gate" incident.

Perhaps a hundred years from now, similar rumors will circulate within the Yangyao Sect.

[There's a little trick to breaking through to become a Grandmaster or even a Great Grandmaster: the legendary "Unity of Cultivation" practiced by the Great Grandmaster Zhao Yuan 100 years ago!]

Both "cultivation" and "behavior" must be done in a Yang-like manner!

This isn't just idle talk; it's based on historical references!

[...]

[Qingcheng, return to the original site of the Qinghe Gang. It has been transformed into something like an "ancestral holy residence" by later generations. Two martial arts masters take turns guarding it every month. It's a low-stress, high-paying job.]

[You saw the very chair you, with your esteemed large backside, once sat in, now placed on the altar, along with a small stool that belonged to Xu Ruohai, and you were overwhelmed with emotion.]

"Time flies so fast. It's been almost 50 years since this happened, but it feels like it was just yesterday."

You looked at your old home, then returned to the small fishing village where you had lived for 14 years, and drifted on Qinghu Lake in a boat.

However, acquaintances like Old Man Wang and Uncle Ji were not present.

[After all, thanks to the life essence you injected into them back then, they have all broken through to at least the third realm and were long ago guided to the Upper Realm Azure Domain.]

You can relax and travel the world.

[While relaxing, I entered a state of harmony with the Dao, replicating one or two minor Dao principles.]

Every moment you are improving, every moment you are climbing one step higher.

There are many principles to follow regarding 26.999 billion, but you have enough time to accumulate them gradually, and you have enough time to return to your true self and achieve instant success.

[Where you go, you gain insight.]

Sometimes one understands the Way, sometimes one conceals it.

"Which one is covering which area now? Is it being covered with your hand or heated with a heating rod?"

You arrive in the neighboring Wu Kingdom, at a famous tourist attraction called "Wuxin Island".

"Old Six was cut in half, and then taken to a place to be used as a dog."

The lake ripples gently as you step into the water, creating tiny waves.

[Perhaps you were in a playful mood, so you slightly adjusted your Dao power, outputting specific Dao principles, which were then transformed into Yuan energy, slowly seeping out from the soles of your shoes.]

[And so, the fish in the lake gathered.]

Common grass carp, silver carp, and common croaker, along with some old turtles, bluish-black water snakes, and even small animals like otters, all sway and ripple on the lake's surface, surrounding your feet.

Moments later, the King of Fishes, reaching two to three meters in length, and even other exotic species of golden fish emerged from the depths of the lake, approaching you, thirsting for the energy for evolution from you.

【"Woo~~"】

You have disturbed the oldest existence of this lake.

A massive, deep shadow slowly rose from the lake beneath your feet, causing the fish to scatter instantly, even the king fish instinctively making way.

[It was a giant turtle, its shell nearly five meters wide, covered with all sorts of giant snails, and adorned with numerous shellfish; calling it a behemoth was no exaggeration!]

This is a colossal beast that has slumbered in the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake for thousands of years. It is an ancient demon born by chance in the ordinary lower realm of Yunyang, resembling a giant clam at the entrance to the ascension passage.

It only surfaces once every few decades for a long, drawn-out breath, giving rise to corresponding legends.

Although it is slow-moving and lacks offensive power, its thick, continuous armor plates are far harder than ordinary rocks; even a full-force attack from an ordinary Grandmaster would likely struggle to damage its carapace.

[A grandmaster once heard of its legend and dived into the lake, intending to nourish himself with the thousand-year-old tortoise. However, his attacks were hampered at the bottom of the lake, and he was ultimately forced to retreat.]

The giant turtle, with its four webbed feet larger than a child's, lifted you onto its back and swam towards Wuxin Island.
