Chapter 768 The purpose of life is nothing more than striving for one's desires.
Ming Yu returned to Wanhuo Daozhou and took charge of the overall situation. His vast holy might suppressed Wanhuo Daozhou, ordering all cultivators who possessed fire seeds to unconditionally hand over their fire seeds.
That's how the world is: the strong prey on the weak, and the mighty are respected.
The strong can rule the world and control the life and death of all living beings.
hum!
Suddenly, the space above Mingyu's head cracked open, and a treasure bottle descended from the sky.
Gu Qing's voice rang out: "Continue to collect all the fire seeds, regardless of their level. Also, collect all the fire seeds from the rest of Daozhou."
"I will obey the decree of the leader."
Mingyu bowed deeply and excitedly held up the jade bottle with both hands.
He had already decided that Gu Qing was the beloved son of the Star Mother.
The treasure bestowed by Gu Qing is definitely not ordinary.
It might help him break through to the level of a celestial being.
Mingyu opened the jade bottle and was immediately overjoyed, his eyes fixed on the crystal inside that emitted a chaotic and mysterious light.
"It's actually the legendary Chaos Origin Crystal..."
The Star Mother obtained Chaos Origin Crystals and put them into the Star God Cult's treasury, but the quantity was too small, only about ten, and they were all divided up by the Star Mother long ago.
This was the first time Ming Yu had ever seen the Chaos Origin Crystal.
Having the Chaos Origin Crystal would help him break through to the Celestial Realm.
Mingyu is 30% confident that he will break through to the Celestial Realm within a million years.
“Mingyu, everyone who sees it gets a share. We are all collecting the fire seeds on the orders of the sect leader. You can’t keep all the credit to yourself.”
"That's right!"
"Moreover, we had already agreed beforehand that you would return to the church to hand over the fire, and if there were any rewards, we would share them equally."
The other two Sage Elders, while speaking, had already unleashed their magical treasures to lock onto Ming Yu.
They seemed ready to start a war at the slightest provocation.
Faced with a breakthrough opportunity, they are capable of anything.
Mingyu's face twitched; the joy he had felt just moments before was now replaced by deep pain.
Some even entertained the idea of killing the two of them or running away with the treasure.
"I can do without the Chaos Essence, but you must give me thirty-three Chaos Source Crystals."
"Me too!"
Seeing this, the two lowered their expectations, realizing they were no match for Mingyu.
If Mingyu refused to split the money equally, they would have wanted to die.
“The Chaos Origin Crystals will be divided equally. I want fifty Chaos Origin Crystals, and you can divide the remaining fifty equally. If you don’t agree, we’ll have to fight. Even if it goes to the sect leader, I’ll still be in the right.”
"Thirty, if you lose even one, I'll fight you to the death."
"At worst, we can have the cult leader come out and uphold justice."
"……All right!"
……
"Master, senior brother, I want to recruit a group of powerful individuals. I also want to sweep across the three thousand provinces and merge all the sects into the Divine Sect, instead of making them dependent on it."
"In this way, the fortune of the Divine Sect will surely increase greatly, and it can also be used for unforeseen needs. Once a powerful force attacks, they can be allowed to enter the Zhou Tian Star Array to help Master kill the great enemy."
"What is Master's or Senior Brother's opinion?"
Bai Zhilan spoke slowly.
The Purple Star Emperor guessed correctly; recruiting powerful individuals was just the beginning, and her ultimate goal was to take over their lineage.
"Wow, junior sister is amazing."
“This is something that has only benefits and no drawbacks. Your master and I will definitely support you.”
Gu Qing immediately looked at her with new respect.
This female lead is really good.
He is gifted, intelligent, and strategic.
"but……"
Gu Qing looked her up and down and laughed, "I really can't believe that you, Junior Sister, are so ruthless beneath your aloof and ethereal appearance."
"Junior sister is undermining their foundation. Aren't you afraid of their retaliation?"
Bai Zhilan's eyelids twitched; she felt that Gu Qing was scolding her.
She took a deep breath and said calmly, "I have always admired my master, so I often come to Wanxing City and linger in the Three Thousand Provinces to study the teachings left by my master."
"This plan is not a sudden inspiration; I had this idea millions of years ago."
She knew that doing so would make her a mortal enemy of the Star Saint Mother's disciples.
After all, luck is extremely important to cultivators.
She ruined people's luck, which is worse than killing their parents.
However, Bai Zhilan didn't care; she didn't care even if she died.
The purpose of life is nothing more than striving for one's aspirations.
Her grand ambition was to worship the Star Mother, assist her in ascending to the pinnacle of the Great Dao, and accompany her by her side.
"Great!"
Gu Qing's lips twitched, and he gave her a thumbs up.
What the hell kind of people are these?
They planned for hundreds of millions of years, only to create an idol in the end.
Gu Qing glanced at her, then at the Star Mother, and teased, "Master, you must be secretly delighted right now, right?"
The Star Mother was indeed secretly delighted, proud of her charm, with a smile playing on her lips.
But Gu Qing's words made her quite annoyed, and she felt an urge to hit someone.
"You unfilial disciple, if you continue to spout nonsense, see how your master will deal with you!" she scolded.
"hey-hey!"
Gu Qing chuckled, completely unafraid; he was now standing tall again.
Bai Zhilan and Xiao Hong secretly envied each other, wishing they could chat and be close to their idols.
Gu Qing stroked his chin and said, "Junior sister, do you want to make a fortune?"
Bai Zhilan is intelligent and resourceful, and he decided to nurture her properly.
"how do I say this?"
Bai Zhilan was taken aback, somewhat confused.
"Simple, Chen Mo definitely wants the fire seed, and maybe even my method for forging the fire seed."
Gu Qing spoke with certainty.
The main characters all share one trait: once they see a treasure, they won't give up until they get it.
Chen Mo will definitely not be an exception.
He could use this opportunity to frame Chen Mo.
Of course, stealing the treasure was secondary; the main goal was to turn the two into complete enemies.
Gu Qing didn't want Bai Zhilan to be influenced by Chen Mo in the end and betray him.
Furthermore, since Chen Mo dared to covet his spark, even if he couldn't act now, he still had to teach Chen Mo a lesson.
"What does this have to do with making a fortune?"
"Does Senior Brother intend to give me half of the fire seed and then have me trade with Chen Mo?" Bai Zhilan asked in surprise.
"You're thinking shit."
"Senior brother..."
A blush rose to Bai Zhilan's fair skin. She had cultivated for countless years and had met many powerful people. This was the first time she had ever heard such vulgar words.
Bai Zhilan felt her face burning hot.
"You're being rude! Speak properly!"
The Star Mother tapped his forehead and scolded him playfully.
Xiao Hong covered her mouth and chuckled.
Gu Qing: "Chen Mo is searching for news about you everywhere, which shows how anxious he is. As long as you show up, he will definitely ask you to bring him to me."
"and then?"
Bai Zhilan still couldn't understand what bringing Chen Mo to see Gu Qing had to do with making a fortune.
"Sigh, why is my junior sister so slow to understand?"
Gu Qing was exasperated, feeling that Bai Zhilan had become somewhat foolish from cultivating.
"Please enlighten me, senior brother." Bai Zhilan lowered her head in shame.
"Shouldn't you pay someone for doing you a favor?"
"Huh? Is this... okay?"
Bai Zhilan was shocked.
She knew that she needed to pay someone for doing a favor.
For example, she was willing to use a supreme innate treasure in order to see the Star Mother.
The problem is, they're from the same school.
When fellow disciples ask each other for help to meet, how can one accept payment?
"Why can't it work?"
"Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly."
“If you won’t do it, then let Xiao Hong do it. Xiao Hong happens to be missing a supreme innate treasure,” Gu Qing said.
When Xiao Hong heard about the innate treasure, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she was eager to try it out.
Although doing so would offend Chen Mo to the point of death and risk her own demise, with Gu Qing protecting her, she was willing to take the risk as long as there was a glimmer of hope.
After all, that is a supreme innate treasure.
"Okay... okay!"
Bai Zhilan reluctantly agreed.
She has no shortage of innate treasures and doesn't want to do something so undignified.
However, as clever as she was, how could she not understand the meaning behind Gu Qing's words?
The innate treasure is not important at all; her attitude is what matters.
If she refused to collude with Gu Qing, she might be targeted by her petty and vengeful senior brother.
Xiao Hong immediately wilted.
The innate treasure slipped away right before her eyes.
