Gu Changge had long since seen completely through Ling Xi's little thoughts, from the flustered trembling of her fingertips when she tightly gripped the small jar, to the deliberately emphasized tone when she feigned acting natural.
And then to the teasing and relief hidden in her eyes at this moment, even down to her final little action of secretly touching her storage ring to reassure herself—not a single detail escaped his eyes.
He secretly laughed in his heart: Did this girl really think she had seen through some massive secret and picked up an incredible bargain?
She was probably secretly rejoicing, thinking that her master had poor judgment and could not even recognize an Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon.
On the surface, he maintained his lazy and indifferent demeanor, merely nodding lightly and waving his hand. Go on, familiarize yourself with the magical treasures and cultivation methods. Do not slack off.
Ling Xi felt a great sense of relief and turned her attention to the two floating jade slips.
Her divine sense gently touched them, and two streams of information flowed into her sea of consciousness.
Can't See Through Me
Can't Catch Me
Ling Xi was speechless.
Even with her state of mind as a former Great Emperor, the corners of her mouth could not help but twitch slightly at this moment.
What... what kind of names were these?!
These names were as blunt as the jokes of street urchins. How did they possess even a fraction of the profound and mysterious aura that high-level cultivation methods should have?
Recalling the cultivation methods from the Imperial Court in her past life—names like the Myriad Transformations Returning to Ruin Hidden Trace Mantra or the Universal Flowing Light Heaven Escaping Secret Manual, which sounded magnificent and vast just by hearing their titles—and then comparing them to these two in front of her...
A trace of suspicion could not help but flash through her heart: Could Master have casually found some basic methods to fool me?
However, when she sank her consciousness into the jade slips and carefully comprehended the true meaning of the laws contained within, the little bit of criticism and doubt in her heart was instantly replaced by a massive, almost subversive shock!
That Can't See Through Me was absolutely not a simple method to hide one's cultivation!
When cultivated to major completion, it could simulate the origin aura of all things, distort one's own presence, and even briefly merge into the trajectory of the laws of heaven and earth. If cultivated to the absolute pinnacle, even if she stood right in front of a Saint, the other party's divine sense would turn a blind eye to her!
Its level of profundity far exceeded any aura-concealing secret method she knew of, being several degrees more exquisite than the Emperor-level concealment art she had practiced in her past life to avoid enemies!
Ling Xi's heart jolted violently, and she instantly understood: No wonder I couldn't see through the true cultivation bases of Senior Brother Xiao and Senior Brother Fang!
So what they were practicing was actually this kind of heaven-defying aura-concealment art! This cultivation method was more than just powerful; it was simply... domineering!
And that Can't Catch Me was even more outrageous!
It did not simply pursue extreme speed. When cultivated to a sufficiently profound level, it even involved spatial folding and jumping, predicting and evading killing intent, and even briefly disrupting the flow of time. It was truly a supreme evasion art!
The bizarreness of its concepts and the exquisiteness of its movement techniques made even her, a Great Emperor who had once excelled in speed and traveled across the heavens, feel that it was inconceivable!
In comparison, the Void Evasion Art from her past life actually seemed somewhat crude!
These... these two cultivation methods... their level was probably deeper than all the cultivation methods she had seen in her past life!
Just what unimaginable realm of understanding regarding the laws of the Heavenly Dao had the person who created these methods reached?!
Master... actually passed such world-shocking secret methods to me so casually?
And he even gave them such... such... unadorned names?!
She suddenly looked up at Gu Changge, her eyes full of disbelief.
Gu Changge seemed completely oblivious to her shock. He continued to lean back lazily, twirling a purple bamboo leaf between his fingertips, as if what he had just given away were truly just two basic breathing manuals.
Ling Xi took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing her churning emotions, and buried the immense doubt and shock deep in her heart.
She solemnly bowed to Gu Changge once again, her voice carrying an imperceptible tremble. Disciple... thanks Master for imparting these methods! This kindness... Disciple will never forget it for all eternity!
This time, her gratitude was incredibly sincere.
Regardless of whether her master had misjudged the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Jar, the kindness of imparting these two cultivation methods was very real and as heavy as a mountain!
Disciple will definitely cultivate diligently and will absolutely not let down Master's high expectations!
She spoke with a firm tone, her eyes flashing with unprecedented light.
With the Emperor Weapon Magic Jar, coupled with these two heaven-defying cultivation methods...
The higher realms she failed to reach in her previous life might... actually be within her grasp in this life!
She put away the jade slips, her heart filled with unprecedented motivation and anticipation.
Gu Changge nodded slightly, not saying much, and just waved his hand.
Ling Xi bowed again and turned to leave.
Her footsteps seemed steady, but her inner state was completely different.
Her original suspicion, wariness, and the slight secret joy of picking up a bargain had now been replaced by immense shock, heartfelt gratitude, and a firm Dao heart.
This master... she might never be able to guess his true depths.
But every time he made a move, it far exceeded the limits of her imagination.
That was enough.
Right now, she only wanted to go back immediately and go into secluded cultivation to bitterly practice these two world-shocking methods!
...
At this time, the news of the secret realm expedition was like a spark thrown into boiling oil, exploding across the land of Xuan Province.
In just a few days, the cultivators who had emerged from the secret realm spread the scenes from inside, adding colorful exaggerations, to every city and every sect.
The Demonic Heaven Sect and the Blood Soul Sect had offended two mysterious youths, ultimately leading to their annihilation.
The Burning Heaven Palace Master, Lie Tianxiong, had also encountered the two and was beaten so badly he had to flee in a sorry state, even having his personal storage ring stripped from him.
In the teahouses and taverns, heated discussions could be heard everywhere.
Who do you guys think those two really are? Peerless combat power, suppressing the Kings of the demonic sects, and beating the Burning Heaven Palace so miserably. When did such formidable characters pop up in Xuan Province?
They are definitely the heirs taught by some reclusive almighty expert. Wiping out two major demonic sects with one hand, it's terrifying just thinking about it!
In my opinion, that white-clad swordsman should be called Sword in White, and the other youth strikes like an Asura, so he should be called Battle Asura! Listen to these titles, don't they perfectly match their skills!
As soon as these words came out, they immediately drew a chorus of agreement. The titles Sword in White and Battle Asura seemed to grow wings, becoming the synonymous terms for the mysterious experts in the mouths of Xuan Province cultivators within half a day.
Amidst the discussions, the most lively ones were those mocking the Burning Heaven Palace.
Hahahaha, the Burning Heaven Palace is too miserable this time! They went for wool and came home shorn. The Palace Master was beaten, the elders were heavily injured, and even their entire fortune was robbed!
Weren't they acting all arrogant before? Robbing resources whenever they saw a small sect. Now they've hit a tough nail, haven't they? It truly gladdens the heart!
These laughs and ridicules were like needles piercing the hearts of every Burning Heaven Palace disciple, yet no one dared to step forward to refute them. After all, the tragic state in the secret realm was something their Palace Master had truly experienced firsthand.
Burning Heaven Palace, inside the main sect hall.
Lie Tianxiong sat upright, but his former imposing aura, fierce like a raging fire, was completely gone.
His face was sallow, his eye sockets were sunken, and the two bumps on top of his head had mostly subsided, leaving only two small protrusions as stubborn proof of their past existence.
That magnificent, flame-patterned Palace Master robe that symbolized power and authority was nowhere to be seen.
Grand Elder Yan Cangyun, an old man with wild red hair, suddenly took a step forward, his voice carrying uncontrollable fury.
Palace Master! The rumors outside are rampant, and they are all recklessly mocking our Burning Heaven Palace!
Especially those few rogue cultivator strongholds, the stories they are spinning are incredibly awful to hear!
If we just let this go, where is the prestige of our Palace?
Please give the order, Palace Master! I will personally lead a squad of elites to severely punish those ringleaders. I will rip out their tongues and extract their souls to serve as a warning to others! That will surely restore our reputation!
As the First Elder finished speaking, several radical elders echoed in agreement, The First Elder is absolutely right! We must let those ants know that the majestic might of the Burning Heaven Palace still remains!
Hearing the words majestic might, Lie Tianxiong's heart instinctively twitched. The wound on his head throbbed in tandem, and he almost shrank his neck in a conditioned reflex.
A surge of frustration and anger shot straight to the top of his head. His face instantly flushed red, and he opened his mouth, ready to roar out his familiar command: Kill them all for me!
But just as the words were about to burst from his lips, a series of images flashed through his mind like a spinning lantern.
The wretchedness of being sent flying backward, completely powerless to fight back, when that plain-clothed youth swung a massive halberd right at his face.
The terror of that white-clad swordsman who, without even drawing his sword, caused all the spiritual energy in his body to stagnate with just a single, indifferent glance.
Not to mention the four inexplicable beatings he had suffered prior.
And that pitch-black little bird that suddenly erupted with an oppressive aura capable of instantly killing a King...
As well as the unforgettable trauma of waking up feeling a chilly breeze all over his body, left with nothing but a single pair of underpants!
He had lost count of how many times this had happened!
Every time he thought he was back on top, he ended up getting beaten even worse and stripped even cleaner!
His anger had burned to its absolute peak, but suddenly, it was as if a basin of ice water had been poured over him. An unprecedented sense of clarity instantly took over his mind.
No!
He screamed inwardly. I can't get angry! If I get angry, I lose! If I get angry, I'll be stripped naked again!
It's a bit late today, I'm really sorry. Please don't blame me, all you incredibly gorgeous readers!
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
