Chapter 745: Chapter 432: Finding a Turtle in the Ocean_1

Nigel had devised a clever plan. Since he discovered Sanni and his mother, he could claim his credit. If he could make Sanni’s mother his own, he would be the closest person to the entire family and Sanni in the future. He could even become the Clan Leader of the "Lu Kui Family" and inherit the family title.

In his eyes, he thinks that with his noble status, he should be more than willing to accept a woman with a child. She should willingly embrace him. With just a little effort, he should have been able to win her over. However, this woman seemed to be indifferent to his advances.

The night after Sophia saw through Nigel’s intentions, he went to the toilet in the middle of the night. Mysteriously, the toilet collapsed. Not only did he fall into the pit, but his leg was also broken by the debris!

This wasn’t Sophia’s doing, but it was pretty obvious who was responsible. Sophia’s gloomy face finally showed a smile after two days. However, the Lord looked at her disdainfully, "Stop smiling at me. You look too ugly now. I feel uncomfortable looking at it."

This made Sophia’s hair stand on end, and she nearly stabbed him with an awl.

Afterward, everything went smoothly. They entered the Royal Capital, passed the Lu Kui family’s background investigation - Master Sun found a village that had been wiped out by the plague as the origin for them. This kind of background actually reassured the Lu Kui family, as it meant there would be no messy relatives coming up out of nowhere.

Sanni’s qualifications were later approved by the Governor, and he was allowed to join this trip for the genius group. When the group was all assembled, they were to be sent to the Red Barbarian Continent.

There were a few minor crises along the way, but the Lord and Sophia were experienced old foxes and dealt with them effortlessly.

The only time there was a real problem was when Sanni returned from the Governor’s place with a pale face, saying, "Now I understand how the ordinary Lu Kui family got a quota in this round. There’s something wrong with that Governor!"

Sophia paused for a moment, and then burst out laughing, insisting that the Lord tell her the entire story in detail.

After a few more days, a total of forty-two young geniuses gathered in the Royal Capital. They were escorted by the Red Race and Lester people to King Port, where they would board a ship to the Red Barbarian Continent.

However, they were attacked by a group of cultivators on the way - the Lord finally saw the opposing force he was so keen to find within the Nanni Nation. But the whole process left him shaking his head in pity, no wonder there were no notable figures in the opposition during the Wood Dynasty.

The moment the young geniuses set off, the Lord knew this was bait. Yet, these opposition forces still went for it.

They had deployed over a hundred cultivators, the strongest of whom was at the Fifth Great Realm. But they fell right into the enemy’s trap. The escort consisted of 200 Red Race and Lester people, and there were over 400 disguised warriors such as coachmen, servants, cooks, and others who tore off their disguises and fought back!

Four possessors of the Power of the Five Mountains ganged up on a cultivator of the Fifth Great Realm, and the opposition forces were crushed, with more than half slaughtered. Only a dozen or so managed to escape.

Seizing the opportunity, the Lord rescued one of them, hid him under his carriage, and quietly released him after his wounds had healed, making contact with the opposition in the process.

The young geniuses were brought to King Port, but it was suddenly decided not to go to the Red Barbarian Continent and to stay in King Port for training instead.

Later, news came out that both the Red Race and Nanni Nation were somewhat suspicious, and the risks of crossing the ocean were extremely high. Even the Red Race could not guarantee absolute safety. It was only because the Nanni Nation felt the loss would be too great if this batch of young geniuses died at sea that they came up with a compromise.

The Lord regretted this decision but felt it was safer to stay in the Nanni Nation.

These young geniuses began their cultivation without a hitch, as their talent was extraordinary.

The Lord had finally come into contact with the Red Clan’s cultivation techniques. In simple terms, it was a "body transformation" process, making their bodies a container for Divine Power. Advancement meant constantly enlarging their container, allowing for even greater Divine Power.

However, due to the inherent dangers of "Divine Power" coming from another void and entering the bodies of living beings in the Real World, the risk of losing control, or "going into a frenzied state" in Red Barbarian terms, was much higher than those of Wood Dynasty cultivators.

At the same time, their progress was much faster than that of Wood Dynasty cultivators.

To sum up the Red Barbarian’s cultivation method so simply might be a bit unfair. This system, which is complete and has a long heritage, has produced many powerful Red Barbarian Empires and has many unique aspects.

For example, they have systematically studied how to reduce the chances of "losing control"; their concept of "strength of a certain mountain" indeed grants them immense power after their physical transformation. These powers complement the Divine Power that they can contain, and the power maintains the strength of the container.

Furthermore, their Divine Power can be transferred en masse and at high speed through temples and other landmarks. In the cultivation system of the Wood Dynasty, there is a similar method called "Incense and Godhood", which also uses temples and martial arts arenas to transfer Divine Power. However, the efficiency of the Red Barbarians is far superior.
