Chapter 563 - 561: Fire of Cause
Chapter 563: Chapter 561: Fire of Cause
Since arriving, the Duanmu Family had been busy building their clan’s settlement.
They were thankful for the vast territory their senior had granted them.
Otherwise, things would have been much more difficult.
The Duanmu Race gazed at the surrounding Spirit Rice.
Their hearts were filled with envy.
The Spiritual Qi gathered in the Spirit Rice was immense, making their mouths water just from the sight.
Even the Spiritual Qi that drifted over,
was of immense benefit to them as Cultivators.
"Is this the Pocket World of a Great Power Cultivator?"
"Using an entire planet as a Pocket World, fabricating a sun and moon... truly a terrifying existence."
"Of course. That’s why we’re lucky just to have a place to stay here."
"It’s so much better than the Cang Realm. Look, just this Spiritual Qi alone... I’ve been absorbing it non-stop. The clan Elders all say this is a good place to live and thrive."
"Yeah, we have to abide by that senior’s rules. I don’t want to get kicked out."
"You can say that again."
"To encounter such a blessed land by a stroke of luck... we have to stay here."
——
——
Su Qing was in the middle of his Cultivation. He didn’t care about these people; they were just there to add a bit of life to the place.
If they caused any major incident involving cause and effect,
Su Qing would have no choice but to say goodbye to them.
「Some time passed.」
On this planet, because most areas were planted with high-quality Spirit Rice,
the Spiritual Qi was growing richer and richer.
The planet was about to be shrouded in a mist of it.
’Is the Spirit Rice about to ripen?’
’This is my first time growing Ninth Grade Spirit Rice.’
There was no such thing as Ninth Grade Spirit Rice; Su Qing had simply synthesized Low Tier Spirit Rice to make it higher quality.
The planet’s Spiritual Qi was indeed very rich now.
’How should I contain the Spiritual Qi on this planet?’
’If it stays this dense, it might cause some major chaos.’
Su Qing thought for a moment, then commanded his Magical Artifact to harvest most of the Spiritual Qi.
He then took out some flower and plant seeds to synthesize.
’If I harvest the regular Spirit Rice, there shouldn’t be too much excess Spiritual Qi. I’ll turn the rest of the land into fields of flowers and plants. That would be more pleasing to the eye.’ Su Qing extracted a large quantity of flower and plant seeds he had never seen before.
His Magical Power carried the seeds and scattered them evenly across the land.
Ordinary flowers and plants didn’t have much Spiritual Qi.
And they might even absorb Spiritual Qi, grow, and mutate.
In any case, Su Qing didn’t need to think about these things.
Just as Su Qing was dealing with the Spiritual Qi issue,
a powerful fluctuation of Magical Power appeared outside the planet.
Su Qianyou suddenly appeared before Su Qing.
Su Qing was surprised. ’The Void Realm.’
"Brother."
"You didn’t lead your enemies here, did you?"
"It wasn’t me! They were attacking me, and they tracked the direction I fled."
"So many people."
"So many Flying Ships."
"..."
Of course Su Qing knew there were a lot of people.
And among them was an Eleventh Realm existence.
"This blessed land now belongs to my Cang Realm! If anyone on the planet below objects, you may come up and fight!"
A voice boomed from outside the planet, shaking the entire region.
With a mere thought from Su Qing, the guy who had just made his grand entrance instantly felt the Space around him freeze.
The arrogant expression on his face froze, and only his eyes revealed his terror.
At first, Su Qing had intended to kill them all.
But on second thought, it was all a matter of cause and effect. If he killed them, the causal link between them would become significant.
Conversely, if Su Qing didn’t kill them, the cause and effect involved would be small enough to be negligible.
"Get lost." Su Qing’s thought transformed into a voice that appeared in the starry sky and entered their ears.
The lead Eleventh Realm cultivator regained control of his body. He trembled in fear, cupping his hands in a salute toward the tiny figure on the planet. "Thank you for sparing my life, Senior."
"Withdraw!" he then shouted to the fleet of Flying Ships behind him.
Following his command, the Flying Ships departed from the planet.
"You’re amazing, Brother," Su Qianyou said with a smile.
"They’re all marked by your flames. Are you going to burn them to death?" Su Qing asked, puzzled.
"I don’t know. Little Huo did that on its own. It has nothing to do with me," Su Qianyou said, shaking her head.
"..."
"Then why did you come back? You could have escaped them by entering the Void Realm."
"You didn’t need to return," Su Qing said.
"I want your Little Flying Car, Brother. This place is huge. It would take me forever to fly on my own."
"..."
Su Qing took out the Little Flying Car. "Take it."
"It’s not much use to me anyway."
Su Qing was now in the Thirteenth Realm; his speed was far greater than the Little Flying Car’s.
Once he used the Daluo Step, where couldn’t he go?
"Thanks, Brother."
"This Spirit Rice smells so good. I want to eat before I go."
"Fine," Su Qing said with a smile.
Su Qianyou still had some worldly desires.
It was just that this desire wasn’t very strong.
She just wanted to eat something.
In truth, Su Qianyou didn’t have a large appetite. Su Qing knew this from watching her eat so many times.
If she wanted to eat, she could eat.
Su Qianyou ate and drank her fill.
Then, she immediately piloted the Little Flying Car and left.
’Su Qianyou...’
’Just how powerful will you become?’
Su Qing pondered. She was a Demon—a Demon who was the embodiment of a Rule.
Moreover, she currently didn’t accrue cause and effect, so stepping into the Grand Thousand Realm would be as easy as lifting a finger for her.
The moment he thought of this,
Su Qing could only think that the world was unfair. ’How come Su Qianyou doesn’t get entangled in cause and effect?’
’And how did I get stuck with so much of it?’
’And why don’t I have the Pure Evil Fire?’
’To be able to kill without accruing cause and effect...’
Su Qing also wanted to be able to kill without being entangled in cause and effect.
Instead of having to let those guys go.
’I haven’t synthesized the Great Dao Swordsmanship in a long time.’
’But it already contains many Rules.’
’I should synthesize a flame of my own.’
Su Qing wanted to synthesize a flame related to cause and effect.
So, he extracted the Power of Cause and Effect, placed it into the Synthesizer, and casually conjured a flame.
He placed them inside to synthesize.
...
...
[Fire of Cause: An ordinary yet extraordinary flame (Burns all cause and effect from the past, present, and future)]
[Synthesizable]
’I finally synthesized a flame.’
It had taken Su Qing more than a year.
’Let’s continue...’ Su Qing extracted it.
He imbued it with the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi and refined it with one hand. It was an ordinary yet extraordinary flame.
Even as a flame, it didn’t dare to burn Su Qing, so the refinement process was simple.
Having synthesized it once, Su Qing felt he could do it again.
’Synthesizing it slowly wasted a year of Cultivation time.’
Su Qing hadn’t taken any poison pills this whole year.
’I’ll cultivate and synthesize at the same time.’
...
"Hm?" As Su Qing was synthesizing, he noticed a Twelfth Realm Cultivator approaching in the distance.
His aura was powerful, and he was steadily approaching Suqing Planet.
’What’s this?’
’Just passing by?’
Su Qing watched as the cultivator’s aura passed by, paying no mind to Suqing Planet.
’Alright.’
’Best not to fight if I don’t have to.’
Su Qing continued his Cultivation and synthesis.
It was already at two hundred thousand now.
While Su Qing was still synthesizing,
he saw that Sixth Realm Cultivator approach him.
"Senior."
"What is it?" Su Qing asked calmly.
"Senior, do you have any Cultivation Techniques? Would you be willing to trade?" Duanmu Shangjiu asked cautiously.
Su Qing shook his head. "No trades. If you want one, find it yourself. I will not trade."
"Thank you for informing me, Senior."
"Go on," Su Qing said, dismissing him.
He had only wanted to add a bit of life to the planet.
He had no desire to get too entangled with the Duanmu Family.
The threads of cause and effect would only grow deeper.
For Su Qing, the current state of affairs was good enough.
Duanmu Shangjiu left.
The Twelfth Realm fellow passed by Suqing Planet again.
’Damn it!’
Passing by twice was enough to get Su Qing’s attention.
’Looks like I need an Array Plate.’
Su Qing synthesized a Tier Twelve Array Plate and placed it on the planet. This would signify that a Twelfth Realm Cultivator resided here, warning others not to approach.
This way, Su Qing wouldn’t have to worry too much about that Twelfth Realm cultivator.
Even if he did come here, he would have to negotiate with Su Qing first.
