The news of Kun Wu's courageous intrusion into the evil imperial palace was destined to spread throughout the entire Southern Province and reach the ears of every evil cultivator.
There were many evil cultivators in the world, and there were always a few who were crazy and mad.
It was only a matter of time before they imitated his actions.
People who practiced evil techniques were more prone to becoming mentally dysfunctional. After this matter spread, Kun Wu became famous.
In an instant, he went from being a nobody to becoming a well-known public figure.
Some evil cultivators who had problems with their brains also wanted to become famous, so they naturally imitated him.
The ironclad law of the evil imperial court that previously could not be provoked would be challenged.
The face of the current evil king would also be slapped again and again.
When Hu Quan heard this news, he was completely stunned.
Cold sweat was dripping down his face!
Had that old b*stard Kun Wu gone crazy?
He really wanted to grab Kun Wu and scream!
I asked you to stir up trouble in Chu County and capture someone. I never asked you to go to the evil imperial palace to provoke the evil king.
What exactly had happened here? Why did Kun Wu suddenly go to the evil imperial palace?
Did he even go to the Chu family's territory?
Did something happen to his brain on the way that caused him to go to the evil imperial palace instead? Or did he encounter some kind of mishap while he was in the Chu family's territory?
Hu Quan broke out into cold sweat. Since he was the one who had given Kun Wu the order to stir up trouble in the Chu family's territory, despite the fact that he was not involved in Kun Wu's crazy decision to go to the evil imperial palace and slap the evil king on the face, he would be doomed if anyone found out or if the news got out.
Fortunately, only he and Kun Wu knew about their conspiracy, and there was no third party present.
"Black Moon Tower shouldn't know, right? It was such a confidential matter and, without a third party present, there should be no possibility of it being leaked."
Hu Quan muttered in his heart.
Hopefully that old bastard Kun Wu did not leak the information to Black Moon Tower.
Otherwise, that group of black-hearted people would definitely use this information to search out the evil king and extort a sum of money from him.
"Let's recuperate quietly. This matter has nothing to do with me. I have never seen or heard of Kun Wu before!"
Hu Quan made up his mind to keep a low profile.
He did not want to be captured by the evil king. That would result in a fate worse than death.
"Something is not right with the Chu family. Why is it that every time something happens, it has something to do with the Chu family?"
Hu Quan felt that the Chu family seemed to be hiding some big secret.
After the incident with Kun Wu, he did not dare to continue targeting the Chu family. He would maintain a low profile and recuperate for now. He would plan his next move after he recovered from his injuries.
However, he had no intentions of letting the Chu family off.
Were it not for the Chu family, how would he have ended up in such a situation in the first place?
The Purple Moon Kingdom's cult had almost been completely decimated.
The evil imperial court would probably regard him as incompetent. If he was not incompetent, then why did he end up in such a state?
In the eyes of the evil imperial court's experts, if he could not even develop and manage a small cult branch well, what else could he be if not incompetent?
Moreover, the evil imperial court did not actually require the cult to develop and grow. They only wanted each cult branch to maintain their strength and avoid destruction.
They even gave him a treasured artifact to help him do so.
If he failed to accomplish even that under such circumstances, he would definitely be regarded as incompetent.
In fact, Hu Quan was worried that the evil imperial court powerhouses would think that he was useless and kill him off directly.
What was even more terrifying was that he might be treated as a material to refine the blood spirit bead!
"Chu family!"
Hu Quan gritted his teeth.
He reached out and took out a small black-red bead. He stared at the small bead for a long time, and his eyes were filled with hesitation.
He had found this bead while exploring a mystic realm.
After many years of searching and reading ancient records, he roughly understood what the bead was.
Demonic blood bead!
It contained demon blood. Once its power leaked out, anyone below the truth realm would become demonized!
Once demonized, they would become demon slaves!
The demon race was the mortal enemy of the human race. Whether it was the righteous or the evil path, they both would not allow the demon race to exist.
On the surface, the demon race was not present in the Southern Region.
Anyone who was tainted by the demon race's demon blood would become a demon slave, and they would quickly be eliminated.
Hu Quan's eyes flashed with viciousness.
He stared at the demon blood bead for a long time before putting it away. He would decide whether or not to carry out his plan after he recovered from his injuries.
...
"You did not leave the house but, with a single thought, you managed to shake the foundations of the evil imperial court, shocking all of the evil cultivators in the Southern Region. You've been rewarded with the lucky mystic realm."
Chu Xuan was stunned. He had shaken the foundations of the evil imperial court, and shocked all of the evil cultivators in the Southern Region?
That old man, Kun Wu, was quite capable.
He checked out the system's reward.
"The lucky mystic realm does not require you to leave your house. You can set up a lucky mystic realm in the South Province, and leave it for the fated person to discover and obtain the inheritance within..."
This lucky mystic realm was not for Chu Xuan to enter. Instead, it allowed Chu Xuan to set up a lucky mystic realm anywhere in the Southern Region.
Anyone who obtained this fortuitous encounter would definitely reap great rewards.
The person who obtained the inheritance of the lucky mystic realm would become Chu Xuan's successor. Moreover, as long as Chu Xuan was willing, he could instantly seize the successor's cultivation base, and even control the person's life and death.
Chu Xuan looked at the simple and unadorned little palace icon in the system. As long as he had enough lucky mystic realms, would he be able to remain in seclusion while creating successors for himself all over the continent?
In addition, every successor would not be able to betray him. Even if the successor really wanted to, Chu Xuan could seize their cultivation base at any time.
The successor's life and death would be under Chu Xuan's control.
Naturally, the successor of the lucky mystic realm would not be aware that their life and death were under Chu Xuan's control.
"Those who are able to enter the lucky mystic realm will all experience fortuitous encounters. Isn't this equivalent to creating protagonists?"
"I won't have to leave seclusion, yet my successors will be all over the continent. It's interesting that I'll be the backer of a bunch of Heaven's blessed."
"If any successor dares to disobey their master, I can instantly take back their cultivation base. I can even reward their cultivation base to other successors. How wonderful!"
Chu Xuan thought about the idea of setting up the lucky mystic realm, but the conditions were not suitable for the time being.
After all, his current strength was too weak.
The upper limit of the lucky mystic realm that he could set up was not very high, so there was no point in doing so.
Even if he did set up the lucky mystic realm, if he wanted to create the internal layout and furnish it, the minimum requirement to do so was for him to be at the initial levels of the emperor realm.
After all, what kind of heaven's blessed would want to enter a mystic realm that was not even at the emperor-level?
The emperor realm was only the beginning.
There were only two days left until the one-year deadline. Chu Xuan was extremely excited.
Within these two short days, nothing would happen, right?
Time passed peacefully.
The one-year deadline was fast approaching.
Chu Xuan rubbed his hands in anticipation. Whether or not he could break through to the emperor realm within a short period of time would depend on the rewards he got from the system for remaining in seclusion for a year.
The longer he stayed in seclusion, the more generous the system's rewards would be.
He had received some rewards of heaven-level scriptures and divine techniques previously.
His first one-year reward would definitely be greater than those.
Perhaps, he would be able to break through to the emperor realm directly.
After breaking through to the emperor realm, Chu Xuan would finally have some confidence in preserving his own safety.
"You've been in seclusion for a year. You've been rewarded with the Jade Void Immortal scripture and 100 years' worth of cultivation."
Chu Xuan was pleasantly surprised. Not only did he get an immortal scripture, he also received 100 years' worth of cultivation.
It seemed that his worries about not reaching the emperor realm were unfounded!
He could not wait to receive the reward.
Boom!
Chu Xuan did not take out and examine the Jade Void Immortal scripture. Instead, he directly got the system to instill it into his mind.
The Jade Void Immortal scripture was a cultivation technique that pointed to the Great Dao, and it recorded many secret techniques within it.
While Chu Xuan was comprehending the Jade Void Immortal scripture, the hundred years' worth of cultivation was being transmitted to him.
At this moment, it was as if he was starting from scratch in cultivating the Jade Void Immortal scripture. The spiritual power that he originally cultivated from the Great Luo Emperor scripture was being continuously compressed.
His meridians were also being continuously expanded.
When compared, the spiritual power cultivated from the Jade Void Immortal scripture was dozens of times stronger than the spiritual power cultivated from the Great Luo Emperor scripture.
Chu Xuan, who cultivated the Jade Void Immortal scripture, would be able to fight against ten people who cultivated the Great Luo Emperor scripture without breaking a sweat.
Thanks to the infusion of a hundred years' worth of cultivation, Chu Xuan's strength continued to rise.
Fourth, fifth, eighth...
