Chapter 786 - 660: Scholar 24, Transformation_2
Upon hearing the word ’reward’, Emperor Tianwu felt somewhat uncomfortable.
In his position as emperor, he had always been the one to bestow rewards upon others—when had he ever received one?
But now, collaborating with the Celestial Demon General Envoy, he chose not to show it.
The Tiger Demon spoke no more, intending to leave immediately and relay the news to the General Envoy.
Soon, only Emperor Tianwu and numerous Demon Pseudo-Gods remained, along with remnants of the previous dynasty.
Emperor Tianwu waved his sleeve, and then a square banner appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Written on the flag was the large word ’Zhou’.
Great Zhou was the previous name of the kingdom before Daqian, and he intended to restart this title.
"Spread the word, from this moment on, my Great Zhou Country has been reestablished!"
Emperor Tianwu waved his sleeve.
The crowd, including the Demon Pseudo-Gods, immediately kneeled, shouting, "Long live Your Majesty!"
...
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, several months had gone by.
During this time, the Daqian Kingdom fell into a situation of calm with underlying turmoil.
On the surface, those Forbidden Areas seemed long settled, but it was always the Defenders’ Forbidden Areas that were subdued.
Whereas those with the traitors’ Forbidden Areas inexplicably went mad, starting wars with local human forces and even recruiting Demon Pseudo-Gods within the Forbidden Areas to collectively oppose the Evil Extermination Bureau.
The Evil Extermination Bureau became busy again, rushing to various traitors’ Forbidden Areas.
The fights seemed to maintain a relative balance.
If the Evil Extermination Bureau left, human forces there were destined for destruction, and when they stayed, the natives and those Demon Pseudo-Gods employed guerrilla tactics, trapping them as if in quicksand, unable to escape.
Meanwhile, during this period, Qin An remained at the headquarters of the Evil Extermination Bureau, almost never leaving.
Every day, he delved into the Confidential Library, reading various types of books.
Everyone knew Qin An’s identity as the Special Envoy and knew of his unstoppable presence within the Forbidden Areas.
They all waited for Qin An to display his formidable power, but Qin An suddenly vanished, instead continuously reading miscellaneous books in the Confidential Library.
No one knew what Qin An was planning, but their attention never wavered from him for an instant.
They awaited Qin An to emerge from the Evil Extermination Bureau’s Confidential Library, curious about what storm he would conjure next.
Today, Qin An picked up a Heart Method early, exchanged it at the Internal Affairs Department, and then returned to his residence.
Returning in broad daylight, Qin An wasted no time placing the Heart Method on the table. As soon as his mind moved, new words appeared before his eyes.
[Scholar lv.24 (0/140000): Your reading speed greatly enhances, photographic memory, deeper understanding, cross-contextual mastery, improved returns, extrapolation, and acquisition proficiency notably enhance, Heart Method attributes significantly improve]
[Talent: Insight into Unity Realm heart methods reaches Great Success, Enlightenment into Unity Realm heart methods reaches Great Success, Enhancement of Unity Realm heart methods reaches Great Success, Resistance to Unity Realm heart methods reaches Great Success, Attribute improvement of Unity Realm heart methods reaches Great Success, Fusion of Unity Realm heart method attributes reaches Great Success, Foundation of Unity Realm heart methods reaches Great Success]
...
When the smoke emerged, Qin An’s lips curled into a slight excited smile.
After such prolonged rigorous cultivation, he had finally succeeded in reaching level twenty-four in the Scholar Profession, achieving another qualitative leap.
Following the leap, a notable feature emerged—significant enhancement in Heart Method attributes.
This feature allowed for a qualitative change in all Heart Method attributes, whether in Void Essence content or quality.
It can be said that once Qin An reached Great Success in the Unity Realm, even Unity Perfection cultivators would pale in his presence.
Besides the additional feature, Qin An acquired a new talent, named Foundation at the Unity Realm Heart Method Great Success.
This so-called Foundation Great Success talent was straightforward.
From his beginnings in Anding County to now, with each realm nurtured to its supreme foundation, the quality of his Heart Methods increased.
Essentially, the more supreme foundations Qin An forged, the stronger his Heart Methods became, surpassing their documented potential.
When the text faded, Qin An instantly detected a difference.
His Wuxiang Xuanhuang Primordial Art already provided notable power, and coupled with his supreme foundation, his strength increased substantially.
Now, even without elevating his power to the Unity Realm, his Heart Method quality and derived combat prowess experienced a dramatic rise, several-fold stronger than before.
Qin An suppressed his thoughts, and finally picked up the Heart Method from the table once more.
This Heart Method was obtained from the Confidential Library.
In the Forbidden Area, Qin An convinced all the Defenders to collaborate with the Daqian Kingdom against Demon Pseudo-Gods, nearly obliterating all demons in the Forbidden Area.
For Qin An, this achievement was monumental.
Therefore, he no longer cared about such achievements, instead seeking to transform the benefits brought by Scholar Profession improvements into substantial combat power.
Elevating his realm was now a priority.
The Heart Method was called God Bridge Heart Method.
The Heart Method emphasized the concept of ’bridge’, and this bridge represented the supreme foundation at Unity Realm.
Three bridges required sacred relics as foundation.
Qin An had long gathered all three sacred relics.
Once the God Bridge Heart Method was mastered, coupled with the supreme foundation formed with the sacred relics, it could unleash exceptionally formidable combat power.
Without hesitation, Qin An began reading through the God Bridge Heart Method.
Upon finishing the God Bridge Heart Method, he immediately gained deeper understanding of it.
Without dithering, he began circulating his internal Void Essence to train.
Before his eyes, smoke emerged, coalescing into text.
[You practice the God Bridge Heart Method, triggering the Scholar Profession talent, God Bridge Heart Method (Great Success)]
In mere moments, the God Bridge Heart Method reached the level of Great Success at the Unity Realm.
Qin An turned to cultivate the Wuxiang Xuanhuang Primordial Art.
Smoke before him cleared again, coalescing into new text.
[You possess the Wuxiang Xuanhuang Primordial Art and God Bridge Heart Method, contemplating combining them, but the talent is lacking, and fusion fails]
Currently, Qin An held hundreds of demon stashes, ample for deduction.
Without hesitation, Qin An rapidly ignited his internal demon stashes.
As the demon stashes combusted, new text appeared.
[You burned a significant amount of demon stash, converting it into substantial Qi and blood, breaking the barriers between them]
[Years have passed, you sit atop a broken cliff, witnessing tides rise and fall, clouds roll and unfold, and suddenly find a moment of insight]
[Countless insights emerge within your mind, and you eventually merge the two Heart Methods into one]
[You establish a new Heart Method, naming it the Wuxiang God Bridge Primordial Art]
[Wuxiang God Bridge Primordial Art (Great Success)]
"Boom!"
A terrifying burst sounded, as the power within Qin An surged crazily, instantly reaching the level of Great Success at the Unity Realm.
Simultaneously, his comprehension of the Wuxiang God Bridge Primordial Art deepened significantly.
Qin An opened his eyes, clenched his fist, unable to suppress a smile at the corner of his mouth: "Finally reached Great Success at the Unity Realm!"
Recounting his journey from Anding County to today, having weathered countless storms and battles, today he has finally reached Great Success at the Unity Realm.
Qin An took a deep breath, striving to calm his joyous spirit, yet no matter how hard he tried, peace eluded him.
Ultimately, he closed his eyes, letting time temper his emotions; it took a full stick of incense’s time to settle his heart like water.
After brief contemplation, Qin An decided to continue enhancing other professions, bringing each to the next level of transformation.
But as he planned this, a sharp voice suddenly erupted.
"Is Mr. Qin inside? I have something to discuss!"
