I drew a talisman to save the sun from its bleeding state.

Chapter 117 We are determined to fight the Ninth Rank Sect to the death, and we will never compromis

Fire Goddess Loli: "Those in the Nascent Soul realm can watch under protective measures. Those in the Deity Transformation realm can face it directly, but they need to cooperate with an array to suppress it. With your talent, along with guardians and magic treasures, those in the Golden Core realm can watch it."

Zhou Zheng: "Okay."

"Is it just the Golden Core Realm? I'll cultivate there."

Zhou Zheng glanced at his fortune score, turned his back, and looked on with a melancholy expression.

Why would Heaven favor those who are indebted to good fortune? Is this some kind of peculiar preference? Or is it a different kind of Heavenly attention?

As for what the additional effects of Heavenly Blessing were, Zhou Zheng had no interest in looking into them at the moment.

Even the most wicked person only has 100 negative points of merit, while I have 1000 negative points now, which is a bit frustrating.

[Note: Heaven favors you; there is no limit to the number of times you can resurrect, but each resurrection requires a payment of 1000 merits.]

Zhou Zheng didn't want to talk and continued to feel melancholy.

With the Fortune stat reduced to this level, even an unlimited number of resurrections doesn't seem so appealing anymore.

Damn it! All the good deeds I accumulated in the first half of my life!

Since the sacred object of the sun was no longer viewable, everyone had to return the way they came.

Ye Keke went to visit the launch site and took some photos in some of the permitted areas.

Xiao Zhengjun went with Cheng Hong to check on the project's progress and discuss cooperation matters.

Zhou Zheng sat dejectedly in the waiting hall, his hands on his stomach, staring up at the ceiling. There's a kind of pain called realizing how precious something is only after you've lost it.

Xiaoxue stood anxiously by Zhou Zheng's side, holding his arm tightly: "Baby, why are you so unhappy? What's wrong?"

Zhou Zheng: "It's alright, Brother Liu. How do you think the inner demon can be resurrected?"

Liu Zhen lay down on the bench, staring at the ceiling, and said casually, "At the late stage of Qi Refining, inner demons will begin to emerge. Why don't you try cultivating them? Or perhaps you could cultivate another technique to perfection. The strength of your inner demons will increase with each perfected technique you acquire."

Zhou Zheng was surprised: "If cultivating one more perfect cultivation technique increases the strength of my inner demons, wouldn't cultivating fifteen techniques greatly increase my chances of falling into the demonic path?"

Liu Zhen said irritably, "Heavenly lightning baptism reduces one's demonic nature! You're a lightning cultivator, go hone your skills yourself. Don't bother me now, let me have some peace and quiet."

Zhou Zheng: "What do you mean? Why are you so angry?"

Liu Zhen: "...I just promised the Heavenly Venerable that I would protect you from death, and you died and came back to life in the blink of an eye. Can you guess how I felt after getting scolded twice?" Taking care of a brat is an extremely terrible job!

Zhou Zheng: "Oh, oh."

I will humbly accept the criticism, but I will resolutely not change it.

How can we gather intelligence without taking risks? It would be foolish to be so cautious about risking one's life when undertaking such a significant undertaking. Besides, it's not like I'm without confidence! I'm the fastest person in the world to call for help!

Liu Zhen: "Shut up."

Zhou Zheng: "Okay, Brother Liu."

We spent the morning at the launch site, had lunch there, and waited for everyone to finish resting.

Ignoring the objections of Xiao Zhengjun, Ye Keke, and others, Liu Zhen directly teleported back to the villa using a hand seal.

Xiao Zhengjun and Ye Keke each grabbed a trash can and vomited up everything they had eaten for lunch.

Zhou Zheng called Xu Fan and asked him to come over.

Liu Zhen's mischievousness grew, and he directly teleported Xu Fan over.

Xu Fan hugged the trash can in the kitchen and started vomiting.

Zhou Zheng pinched his nose: "It's strange, why do they throw up so easily? Xiaoxue didn't throw up at all."

Xuan Yizi pinched his nose: "What are your constitutions? What are their constitutions?"

Xiao Zhengjun stood up, supporting himself on the table, and wiped his pale lips with a tissue: "I'm going to work, you guys go ahead and get busy."

Liu Zhen raised his hand.

Xiao Zhengjun cried out in panic, "No! I need to get in the car! No... Whoosh!"

The aunt pinched her nose and started cleaning the trash can.

Xu Fan leaned limply against the kitchen counter: "Zhou, Brother Zhou... is there something urgent?"

Zhou Zheng sat on the sofa: "Come here first, and then I'll tell you."

Xu Fan, barely managing to stay in his best, flew over in black mist and landed on the sofa, collapsing into a limp state.

Once everyone had recovered, Zhou Zheng took out paper and pen and began to recount the entire process: "About a month and a half ago, the sun was maliciously devoured by an unknown deity, losing one ten-thousandth of its life force every month. As the sun's power began to weaken to an extremely small degree, and with the unknown deity's malicious interference with Blue Star, the leader of the Nine Streams Sect claimed to have received divine revelation and wanted to obtain the sacred object of the sun brought down by a space rocket."

The matter of the sun is to be handled by the Heavenly Realm; what we need to be responsible for now is the evil plan of the Nine Streams Sect Master.

The seal of Zhu Yan is located in a different dimension beneath the ancestral land of the Xu family, and there are several ways to break the seal of Zhu Yan.

The first method: directly find the corresponding way to unseal, which would allow Zhu Yan to be released directly. However, because the Xu family was completely wiped out, the survivors did not know what the unseal method was, and the Nine Schools had not found it either.

The second method: Obtain the Pig Beast Ring, and use the power of one of the twelve beast rings in combination with an auxiliary plan to unseal the Zhu Yan. But don't worry about that, my parents are in the border region, a heavily guarded military stronghold. Even if they wanted to cause trouble, they would have to think twice about whether they had the strength.

The third method: using the Sun Relic. The leader of the Nine Schools said that the divine revelation revealed that the Sun Relic could also unseal the Zhu Yan. However, the Sun Relic is suppressed and guarded by five Nascent Soul cultivators, as well as the Fire Goddess Chi Di Divine Power Loli, whose combat power is comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator. There is no need to worry in the short term.

The fourth method: Currently, the seal on Zhu Yan is slowly weakening due to lack of maintenance. With the help of war, multiple experts at the Nascent Soul or Void Transformation realms could break the seal on Zhu Yan.

There might be other ways, but I don't know them right now. What does anyone have to say about this?

There are multiple ways to break the seal of the ancient demon beast; you only need to implement one of them, the Nine Schools, to succeed.

Liu Zhen: "I can understand the Nine Streams Sect leader stirring up trouble; in chaos, the Nine Streams Sect will rise more easily. Is the unknown deity trying to weaken our power?"

Zhou Zheng: "Possibly."

Liu Zhen sighed and fell silent. In every war, the most disgusting thing wasn't how strong the enemy was, but rather the presence of traitors like the Nine Streams Sect within the ranks.

The Nine Schools are just the beginning; as long as the unknown deities live, evil will never cease.

Xu Fan raised his hand: "Brother Zhou, the gods are definitely handled by the big shots, it has nothing to do with us, right?"

Zhou Zheng: "Not necessarily. I am a genius born to face this calamity. Perhaps the key to resolving this calamity lies within me."

Xu Fan: "...Brother Zhou, you and your wife are progressing so fast in your dual cultivation. I can only advance one level of Qi Refining after a year of hard work. Even if I can improve my level by consuming Yin Virtue, I still can't compare to you."

Zhou Zheng pondered for a moment: "I will solve this problem later."

Liu Zhen: "I can solve this problem."

Everyone looked at Liu Zhen.

Liu Zhen: "I have a friend whose supernatural power is the Yellow Millet Dream. As long as your mind can withstand it, you can quickly improve your strength through the Yellow Millet Dream. However, most people can't withstand it."

Zhou Zheng's eyes lit up: "No need to trouble your friend, Brother Liu, just give me the cultivation technique, and I'll cultivate the supernatural power myself."

Liu Zhen: "That works too."

Xiaoxue eagerly raised her hand: "Honey, do I have to fight the Nine Streams Sect too?"

Zhou Zheng: "We can fight, or we can not fight. It depends on how much we participate. After all, with so many forces joining forces to suppress us, we can do some easy work and not be too tired."

This is a choice. I am the Holy Son of the Thunder Department, a genius destined for tribulation. What's wrong with me enjoying myself? I'll keep singing and dancing.

Xiaoxue: "But husband, what about your fortune?"

Zhou Zheng: "We will definitely fight the Nine Streams Sect to the death and never compromise."

This is a must-answer question, without a doubt. Whether it's for the sake of your quality of life or for the sake of your resurrection count.
