Chapter 1217 - 317: Everything Is Connected, That Itch
Yu Ziqing struggled to suppress his laughter, chuckling oddly to himself.
Did he report false information to the Cliff Divine King through New Five?
No, every single word was unquestionably true.
Because some undigested matters emerged on the path of Refining God, they don't affect Refining God cultivators below the Primordial Spirit Realm, only those within the Primordial Spirit Realm, and especially the stronger figures within.
Even if the Tenth Tier path opened, in the current situation, it could indeed delay their advancement possibilities.
It could potentially delay them for twenty to thirty years, even forty to fifty years.
Be mindful, this is indeed the case, but the duration is uncertain, it's only possible.
If neglected, and left to naturally digest, it truly is like this.
But Xiao Dongqing risked his life to conduct an experiment, finding a way to greatly speed up the digestion process.
Moreover, this digestion process isn't heavily related to the quantity of fragments on the path of Refining God.
Yu Ziqing observed clearly, the scattered fragments above, their digestion progress is tied solely to time.
A single fragment, and a hundred fragments simultaneously falling, digest in the same amount of time.
Of course, this might also be because they are merely fragments. If the Cliff Divine King were willing to entirely discard his own path, it might cause severe digestive issues for the entire Refining God Dao, possibly blocking it for a very long time.
The issue is, the Cliff Divine King could never self-destruct like this to delay time.
Even to shed some fragments, he's carving flesh, estimating the pros and cons before begrudgingly accepting, but no further.
Now the question arises, how long can shedding flesh once last?
How many times would he dare shed?
Most importantly, it can only block pure Refining God Strong.
And Yu Ziqing currently knows that all those preparing to charge the Tenth Tier after its opening are mostly Qi Refining cultivators.
The remaining very few are Body Cultivators, like You Zhen.
For cultivators in the Primordial Spirit Realm, tribulation-crossing differs from Qi Refining cultivators, Qi Refining cultivators face a steady Third Tribulation, while Refining God cultivators face uncertainty, ranging from one to three tribulations.
For cultivators at the Primordial Spirit Realm, there might be differences in realms, but insisting on who's stronger or weaker, the realm differences' impact truly is trivial.
Wanting to break through to the Tenth Tier, nuisances are tied to the realm.
Refining God cultivators are few, top-tiered realm ones even fewer, eligible and capable to attempt a breakthrough can be counted on one hand.
If instructed to choose.
Breakthrough immediately or wait until the Refining God Dao strengthens further, they'd definitely choose the latter.
Because when breaking through to a Great Realm, a slight difference at the starting point can grow to near double at the endpoint.
Like if Yu Ziqing were to inform Zhong Shouzheng now, Zhong Shouzheng would likely chuckle and offer an even more ruthless idea.
Yu Ziqing is indeed contemplating whether to find someone to help, pooling wisdom.
Strengthening the Refining God Dao overall, this is a subject to display.
Weakening the Cliff Divine King is a secondary reason, Yu Ziqing actually knows, the effect might be minimal.
The true reason is that Yu Ziqing plans to attempt, following Dongqing Country Emperor Xiao Dongqing's route, using those fragments to achieve something previously impossible.
Xiao Dongqing inadvertently discovered a possible path for Primordial Spirit Reincarnation.
Then Yu Ziqing, using those fragments, leveraging the connection between the Refining God Dao and the Cliff Divine King's Dao, creating targeted things specifically against the Cliff Divine King, isn't impossible.
This dog of a thing is generally tough to kill, lost heavily to Shi, so when Yu Ziqing confirmed the connection between the Refining God Dao and the Cliff Divine King's Dao, he thought, isn't the Cliff Divine King's own things the point causing him heavy losses?
And now, half of the fragments on the Refining God Dao have already merged into it, Yu Ziqing estimates the remaining fragments may be digested clean before he finds a method.
Now presenting facts and reasoning, having the Cliff Divine King shed flesh himself, tossing them in, would at least yield numerous opportunities.
Sustaining consecutive flesh shedding a few times isn't a problem, if too much, he might realize he's being tricked.
These fresh fragments will definitely have better effects.
As for how to utilize them, Yu Ziqing already has an idea, having an idea is sufficient.
He doesn't need to spend a vast amount of time constantly experimenting, researching, like Yang and the others, pooling wisdom to gradually refine.
Yu Ziqing only needs, during the activation judgment, to set a suitable precondition, then use the judgment power to forcefully deduce his set Dharma Method.
If one attempt cannot establish the proper deduction, then multiple attempts will suffice.
Now coincidentally there is an appropriate deduction opportunity.
With this thought, Yu Ziqing's enthusiasm for rescuing Che Lun's teammate skyrocketed.
That's not recruiting subordinates, recruiting experiment volunteers, but legitimized deduction opportunities.
If Yu Ziqing weren't afraid targeting Che Lun and Matchstick Men, triggering a second judgment, due to knowing more, might be stronger than the first judgment, necessitating the full-force first strike that could instantly kill them, Yu Ziqing wouldn't need to continue into the Abyss' Mud Sea of the Muddied World.
He initially just wanted to pull out a lab rat from the Mud Sea of the Muddied World.
