Zheng Ya's reply across time and space inspired all of humanity on Earth.
Humans on Earth rushed to the pilgrimage plan, and the pilgrimage began in full swing.
While only half a day had passed on Earth, forty-seven days had already passed on the Hongli continent.
It was that time of year again when the bright moon rose with the tide. Zheng Ya was strolling on the rocks by the sea to digest his meal when Liu Yuan rushed in with an urgent report: "Master, something has happened in the Northern Border?"
"Hmm, what could possibly happen in the North?"
Could it be another conspiracy by the Emperor Emeritus and Empress Dowager to uncover the mystery of my origins and ambush me, a direct descendant of the Zheng family? Zheng Ya remained unmoved, enjoying the night view of the sea breeze.
In reality, while observing the ocean tides, he simulated the second spiritual technique of time-related supernatural abilities—Time Acceleration—through the Four Harmonies Building's Extraordinary Treasure System within the small world of supernatural powers.
Time flies, like the endless tide crashing against the coastline.
How does a visible yet elusive attack accelerate aging and ultimately destroy something?
Ultimately, it destroys life; could it be that time hastens aging?
It also possesses a unique corrosive property, silently and subtly eroding life and fostering growth through corrosion.
Zheng Ya seemed to have grasped something and began simulating the second spiritual technique of the time-based ability. Seeing his calm and nonchalant expression, Liu Yuan smiled wryly and said, "Master, this time it's an open scheme!"
"Oh, interesting. Tell me about it?" Zheng Ya was taken aback and became serious. He turned to Liu Yuan on his right and pressed him for details. What kind of open conspiracy was it?
Last time it was a conspiracy, using Fu Zhen and his gang to expose Fu Ya's background and reveal that they controlled three secret keys to the imperial seal, and then luring Zheng Ya into an ambush.
Their schemes were originally very well-thought-out, and they could trick ordinary people 100% of the time.
Unfortunately, they underestimated Zheng Ya's investigative skills.
As early as a month ago, the second to eighth interstellar spaceships were launched one after another. Three of the spaceships were conducting comprehensive surveillance of the mainland and captured clues about the conspiracy of the retired emperor and the empress dowager. Zheng Ya wanted to fall into their trap, but the hardware equipment wouldn't allow it!
Although they used Fu Zhen's group to start a war with Wu Wei's army, creating the illusion that Wu Wei was about to steal the three keys, their presence in Fu Zhen's group's camp exposed their conspiracy.
Zheng Ya simply ignored them and watched them fight like dogs.
It is worth mentioning that Wu Wei has shown his power. Wu Wei's high-end teams on the surface are far inferior to those of the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and their power is insufficient compared to either of them.
However, Wu Wei developed Lu Ban's mechanical arts into the air, creating a massive mechanical formation drone battle group that actually fought to a standstill with the Emperor Emeritus and Empress Yin.
The key is that Wu Wei hides behind the scenes and does not show himself, so that the Supreme Emperor and the Empress's high-end cultivator organization cannot find an opportunity to behead them. Instead, they are repeatedly discovered by the drones that Wu Wei has deployed for control and reconnaissance, and ambushed and killed more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators.
Although Nascent Soul cultivators are powerful, they are no match for the speed, combat power, and endurance of the drones. Before they could react, the drone swarm had worn them down to death, killing seventeen people.
This immediately stung the retired emperor and the empress dowager, making them more cautious in their dealings with Wu Wei.
Wu Wei was not idle either. After searching for Zheng Ya without success, she ordered a change in tactics and, intentionally or unintentionally, cooperated with the retired emperor and the empress dowager to frame Zheng Ya.
If Zheng Ya hadn't possessed satellites and spaceships to monitor the world's affairs and uncover their schemes, he would have been killed long ago!
Now that they're playing open and aboveboard games, Zheng Ya has taken an interest.
Liu Yuan said worriedly, "Master, they have exposed three crystal veins and a Void Stone mine in the Northern Territory..."
"That's impossible. How could Void Stone form a vein?" Zheng Ya retorted incredulously, but couldn't find a reason to refute it.
Even though it's fake, the Void Stone is of paramount importance for building interstellar spaceships and is an essential resource for setting up time-space travel arrays and ensuring unobstructed tunnel passage; it is indispensable.
It should be noted that the virtual Four Symbols and Eight Trigrams Heavenly Array set up on Earth uses very little spacetime energy.
Basically, it serves as a coordinate guide and the cornerstone of the spacetime traversal array tunnel connecting Hongli Continent, meaning that all the energy for spacetime traversal is provided by Hongli Continent.
Although Zheng Ya has only comprehended the Four Symbols and Eight Trigrams Heavenly Array at this stage, he has the resources of each and the Void Stone, so setting up a spacetime travel array in the Four Directions Star System should not be a problem.
The only problem is that it will take time to transform the Quadruplex system into a habitable environment for humans.
Naturally, the more Void Stones and resources available for each formation, the better, so Zheng Ya couldn't help but be interested in Void Stones.
Liu Yuan thought to himself, "As expected, my master has fallen for it." He continued, "Since my master knows that the other party is using fake Void Stones and playing a dirty trick to lure him into an ambush, then we should just ignore them..."
"No, whether the Void Stone vein they released is real or fake, I have to go..." Zheng Ya suddenly felt that he should step forward.
After being idle for forty or fifty days, my psionic income plummeted.
Although Qinglong caused trouble at appropriate times throughout the entire process, generating spiritual energy income for Zheng Ya, it was not as fast, plentiful, or sustainable as Zheng Ya's direct involvement in generating income.
Zheng Ya's seclusion during this period was merely a delaying tactic.
It's not that I'm afraid of them or that I can't beat them, but when it comes to plotting and assassination, Zheng Ya is second to none in the world.
However, in pioneering the interstellar navigation business, time needs to be delayed. We cannot allow the Hongli Continent to collapse overnight and return to the Qianyuan Continent prematurely, thus missing the opportunity to develop the interstellar navigation business.
This was Zheng Ya's only self-rescue action to prevent the Tower of Babel officials from taking his attack tools; he had no other choice.
Furthermore, it was Zheng Ya's inescapable mission to create a path and conditions for his relatives and friends to achieve immortality.
Liu Yuan knew his intention and used it to persuade him: "Master, our top priority is to delay the destruction of the continent. There's no need to take risks."
"Alright, I'll make my own decision on this matter. Don't try to persuade me anymore."
"When you have time, pay more attention to Xie Baochai and her brother. They've gotten used to life on the island lately, which isn't normal," Zheng Ya changed the subject.
Logically speaking, Xie Baochai was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and Xie Da was only twelve. They were both young and impetuous, so how could they be so calm?
The key question is why the siblings didn't run away?
It gives the impression of an inside traitor, so we must be wary!
Liu Yuan was taken aback and smiled bitterly: "Master, our people are so busy, who would bother with those two siblings?"
In my opinion, we should just cripple their cultivation, imprison them, and give them some thin porridge every day to keep them alive. I guarantee they won't be able to hold out and will confess.
Besides, our master has the power to defy fate. Wouldn't it be a perfect solution to use this power to induce the siblings to confess and not become useless?
Moreover, this old servant believes that crippling the siblings was just an accident…
"Ahem, you know I'll stop at nothing to my enemies, but when it comes to former partners, it's always a matter of opinion."
"As long as the siblings don't cause us any losses or betray our intelligence, we can't take any action against them. This is a matter of principle." Zheng Ya firmly upheld his principles and gave the order.
Liu Yuan gave a helpless, bitter smile: "Master, this is raising a scourge!"
