212: The Long Lost Art Of Bullshit
🕑 Added 2025-03-25 15:33:22 +0000 UTCIn this entire universe, including the Abyss, if there is an ultimate profound art, it would undoubtedly be the World-Defying Heaven Manual!
This art not only allows the user to use the Law of Nothingness to absorb profound cores and jades to raise their cultivation, though that is the simplest function of the Law of Nothingness, but it also represents the culmination of the strongest and mightiest being in the universe, the Ancestral Goddess, who spent millions of years creating it.
It contains all her knowledge and understanding of the profound way!
Once someone can comprehend it to its limit, they will have a hope of reaching the same level as the Ancestral Goddess.
Everything was birthed from nothingness, including the Ancestral Goddess herself, and everything can return to nothingness.
Yun Wuji guessed that once his comprehension of the Law of Nothingness reached a certain level, he wouldn't just absorb energy from profound cores and jades, he could plunder the cultivation of others and make it his own. Beyond that, he might even gain the ability to transform anything into profound energy, whether it be a mere stone on the road or a Divine Vein sustaining an entire star realm.
Because everything in this universe was born from nothingness, and could return to nothingness!
Under Qianye Ying'er's eager gaze, Yun Wuji stared at the characters and began reading, "Earth doesn't slow, Heaven births life; the weight of the will, the distress of emotions; dream isn't a dream, dream is a dream; not all that is hazy is real..."
Qianye Ying'er's expression changed. At first, she hadn't placed much hope in him. Though he claimed he could decipher the text, she assumed he would only manage a word or two at a time. In the best-case scenario, perhaps he could translate the entire passage after several years. But she never expected him to decipher the entire text so effortlessly!
Yun Wuji continued reading, his voice low and magnetic. Even Qianye Ying'er had to admit, it was pleasant to listen to.
After a long while, he stopped. "That's it."
After his first experience, Yun Wuji had learned his lesson and didn't directly enter a state of enlightenment. If he were to do so now, it would take him a very long time to exit that state, and once he did, he wouldn't be able to explain it to Qianye Ying'er.
If he claimed he didn't understand anything, it would be a lie. But if he admitted to comprehending this part, she would likely resort to even more drastic measures to extract what he had learned. And when that failed, she would certainly kill him to eliminate any future trouble.
After all, when she found this fragment, she also discovered a remnant soul of Mo E, which stated that anyone who could successfully cultivate this art would reach the realm of True Gods. There was no way she would allow someone with such terrifying potential, especially one antagonistic toward her, to remain alive.
"You really can understand the Divine Text of Absolute Beginning!" Qianye Ying'er stared at him intensely, as if trying to see through him. He was clearly a young man, less than twenty years old. How had he managed to accomplish something that even hundreds of renowned scholars, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, had failed to do?!
"What? Curious?" Yun Wuji grinned. "It's not like I can't tell you how I did it, ya know?"
"But what can you give me in exchange?"
Now that he had secured his main goal, it was time to start wreaking havoc in this woman's life, well, maybe that wasn't the right way to put it. He was simply going to show her the truth and help her break free from her father's deception and control. Yes… he was just helping her for her own good.
Even though she had nearly killed him, tortured him, and was still planning to kill him even now, he, Yun Wuji, a saint who cultivated Light Profound Energy, would still repay evil with good.
'Now that I put it this way, it really does seem like I'm a selfless saint,' Yun Wuji tilted his head and thought shamelessly. 'Mu Bingyun and the Ice Phoenix were right all along, I truly am a saint, completely void of any evil or filth!'
"What do you want?!" Qianye Ying'er narrowed her eyes and asked coldly.
"Is this the attitude of someone asking for a favor?" Yun Wuji raised an eyebrow and replied with a smirk.
"Is this the attitude of a captive talking to their captor?" Qianye Ying'er's lips curled into a cold, mocking smile, and her eyes, visible under the mask, narrowed dangerously.
It seemed that if she didn't remind this bastard of his identity, he would start getting carried away and forget his place.
"Tsk, you're no fun. No man would like a woman like you," Yun Wuji clicked his tongue in annoyance, completely unfazed by her threatening demeanor.
"..." Qianye Ying'er resisted the urge to slap him and scream, 'Do you know who you're talking to? Besides, I don't need any lowly man's love!'
As if sensing her dangerous aura, Yun Wuji stopped teasing her and said, "I can tell you how I did this, but in exchange, you must double my cultivation resources and provide me with an Origin Soul Breaking Pill and a Universe Penta Jade Pellet."
The Origin Soul Breaking Pill is a pill that allows whoever consumes it to greatly increase their strength. A cultivator in the Divine Origin Realm can reach the Divine Soul Realm if the pill is consumed.
The Universe Penta Jade Pellet has a similar effect, but this pill allows a cultivator to reach the Divine Tribulation Realm.
However, while the effects of these pills are remarkable, the materials needed to refine them are incredibly rare. For instance, the Universe Penta Jade Pellet requires an Ancient Dragon Heart which is at the Divine Master Realm, as well as Immortal Emperor Grass, which is nearly extinct throughout the entire Primal Chaos.
The only forces capable of obtaining such precious items are the King Realms.
The Heretic God body is the one with the lowest cultivation. The other bodies have already left him in the dust, especially the Devil body, which is at the 10th level of the Divine King Realm. Since he was staying in the strongest realm in the entire Eastern Divine Region, it would be a waste not to squeeze some benefits from them, right?
"Alright," Qianye Ying'er simply agreed with a nod. These pills might be extremely precious to others, but to her, they were nothing. Exchanging some useless pills for information about the World-Defying Heaven Manual, the only hope in the current era to reach the True God Realm, was totally worth it.
Even if she had to pay a hundred times more, it would still be worth it!
"The reason is actually pretty simple," Yun Wuji said with a smile after getting her promise. Then he switched into his second most skilled art after acting; the bullshitting art. "I deduced it."
This trick had worked with Jasmine, so naturally, it would certainly work on this woman, who was obsessed with breaking through beyond the Divine Master Realm.
"Deduced it?" His words confused Qianye Ying'er. She put her hands behind her back and leaned over slightly, saying, "Explain. Be more specific."
"I was born with the ability to deduce things. Since I was young, I could deduce the future, the past, or other secrets, as long as I paid a certain price," Yun Wuji said, his hands in his pockets as he looked up at the sky. His voice was low, and when he finished speaking, he let out a soft sigh.
Looking at him, even Qianye Ying'er couldn't help but think that this man, despite being less than twenty years old, must have experienced more than most people in their entire lives. But of course, this didn't mean she pitied him or would spare his life. At most, if anything changed, it would be that she would give him a swift death and leave his corpse intact.
"When I was unfortunate enough to meet you and escape from you, I used my ability to deduce things about you," Yun Wuji said, looking away from the sky. His gaze moved back to Qianye Ying'er, and his smirk returned. "Although the price I had to pay was very high... oh boy, you won't believe what I found."
"Xisu truly deserves the title of one of the three great simps of the Primal Chaos," Yun Wuji suddenly chuckled. "He actually willingly gave his life for a woman who was using him like a disposable piece of trash."
"No wonder people say that simps are the lowest of the low and deserve no pity."
Xisu was one of the people Yun Wji hated and despised. The bastard sacrificed his life for a woman who didn't even bother to hide the fact that she was using him. He completely ignored that if he died, his two sisters would be heartbroken with grief. Not only that, but he also knew his father was planning to use his sister Jasmine as a sacrifice. Yet, instead of staying to protect them, the guy went off on his own and threw his life away to help a woman who had schemed against him and his realm many times.
He truly deserved a spot as one of the greatest simps.
"Hmph! It seems you really know a lot," Qianye Ying'er's eyes widened and snorted coldly. She was starting to believe his claims because she was absolutely certain that no one in the world aside from her father knew about this.
"Not only that i knew much more," Yun Wuji's smile widened and his gaze became darker, his weird expression made Qianye Ying'er have a bad feeling, Yun Wuji moved his head forward and whispered, "I knew things about you that even you don't knew, do you want me to tell you a few of them?"
"For example, how your mother died?"
