Chapter 171: Chapter 171 Starting Hand [Seeking Monthly Ticket]

Immediately after that, the Five Ghosts reappeared in front of Wang Zijia, transforming into five chubby, pinkish figures dressed in red bellybands. With obsequious faces, they handed over the book page to Wang Zijia.

Wang Zijia took the page and as his mana slightly fluctuated, the page turned back into a spiritual object. He carefully examined it and only after confirming that there was no problem with the page did Wang Zijia exhale a sigh of relief.

After a period of adaptation and comprehension, a small portion of the Five Ghosts Divine Power, the Five Ghosts Mountain Moving Technique, was begrudgingly executed by Wang Zijia, applied while refining a spiritual tool.

’Finally, it’s done. Now I won’t have to make a fool out of myself and steal things!’

In a flash of thought, Wang Zijia moved his mind and arrived in his own Chaotic Sea of Knowledge.

Under the illumination of the Golden Balance, a Red Copper Weight and a blood-red Jadeite Jade Book were circulating. On the cover of the jade book was also a Golden Balance and a weight.

Wang Zijia beckoned to the two objects, and the weight and the jade book flew to the top of his head. With the turning of Wang Zijia’s mind, he dazedly came to a strange Chaotic Sea of Knowledge.

When Wang Zijia arrived, he first looked up at the Red Copper Weight and Blood Red Jade Book. Between the fluctuations of the weight, a physical Charm Summon the size of a bank card condensed and emerged, with runes circulating on the Charm Summon.

Looking at the Charm Summon, Wang Zijia exhaled a long sigh of relief.

With the second weight carrying the Dao Foundation and the first weight being sealed into the book, Wang Zijia had now completely extricated himself from the awkward situation of being powerless in Chaos Space.

With a book and a weight as a bridge, Wang Zijia possessed a world-connecting ability here, because even a weak illusion technique could have a dramatic effect in this place.

With a move of Wang Zijia’s mind, a phantom page emerged. On the page was a picture of an endless ocean, with Penglai Fairy Island standing in the middle of the sea.

As the pages dispersed, the surrounding chaos quickly retreated. In a moment, Wang Zijia arrived in the middle of Penglai Fairy Island.

Wang Zijia operated for a moment, and the ocean reemerged into a page, which flew into the Jadeite Jade Book. With a turn of his mind, the Charm Summon that Wang Zijia had just condensed flashed and the Illusion Technique circulated, alternately a Flying Immortal and the spread of purple air for thousands of miles.

The earth-shattering changes in the Chaos moved silently here, where Wang Zijia seemed to hold the authority of the heavens and earth, feeling like a saint in the world.

Through Wang Zijia’s experimentation, he found that in this place, using the power of the Illusion Rune in the Charm Summon to reforge a person’s life, giving them a setting for a reincarnation, was not entirely impossible.

The only issue was that he had to set up a scenario template, needing to manually set the scene and brainstorm the plot, which was a bit mentally draining even with the speed of divine thought here.

Even if he used the excuse of the target’s vague memories of their past lives to only set up some key scene memories for the target.

He would have to draw several scene albums to replicate it, perform it, then pull the target into it for a puppet-like marionette performance.

Completing the setting of a single target’s reincarnation, transmigration, rebirth, and even covertly modifying their will and other things.

This felt like a massive project!

He had to figure out a way to create an Illusion Technique, or even a set of Magic Doors, specifically for replicating scenes from memories. All he needed to do was make minor adjustments.

Otherwise, doing it this way was indeed a bit difficult and too mentally exhausting.

Then, in this process, adding some grievances and embedding a stubborn obsession like a Thought Steel Seal, he could silently drive the target to do things for Wang Zijia.

With his thoughts continuously becoming more refined, Wang Zijia’s eyes became increasingly bright.

"No rush, take it one step at a time. First, try to implement the ideas about the covert agents lurking in the Dark Hall of the Bone Soul Sect. They would be perfect for human experimentation!"

Wang Zijia whispered to himself and everything around him returned to the chaos. The book closed and, in a slight fluctuation, it disappeared into Wang Zijia’s body with the Red Copper Weight.

At this moment, Wang Zijia’s figure also began to change rapidly and in the blink of an eye, he became an old man in a green robe, looking as if he had been weathered by countless years.

He waved his hand to fasten the card-like Charm Summon in his hand, and with a change of thought, a figure began to condense in the chaos, gradually taking shape and quickly emerging.

······

In his daze, Du Kang regained his senses and immediately bowed in respect when he saw Wang Zijia. "Inner Sect disciple Du Kang pays respect to Elder Li," he said.

Wang Zijia stood with his hands behind his back, his face indifferent. He glanced at Du Kang for a moment before saying, "Dao Foundation third grade, sword embryo in its early stages, promising aspiration for attaining the Perfected Realm Top-grade Spirit Sword. Not too shabby, not a total waste of twenty years."

"I dare not take credit. If it weren’t for your guidance and cultivation, Elder Li, I, let alone ascending to be the Sacrifical Wine, might have already turned into a Demon Body in the Demon Suppressing Tower or a pile of bones in a grave," replied Du Kang sincerely, paying respect to Wang Zijia. "Elder Li, I will forever cherish and remember your kindness in remaking me. I will never forget it for the rest of my life."

"Enough. Your achievements today are a result of your firm will and relentless effort, don’t act as such," Wang Zijia said with a rare smile on his indifferent and aged face, then changed the subject, "I was held up with some issues a few days ago and couldn’t contact you immediately after your promotion to be a Sacrifical Wine. So, I only came today. I heard from the people below that you’ve discovered quite a few individuals?"

"Responding to Elder Li, after several months of investigation, I have controlled several individuals. Through their network of connections, I discovered that the covert child matter is deeply intertwined, involving Beast Control, Bloodline changes, Essence Blood, and other subjects," replied Du Kang.

"This is still under the circumstance that they all have single-point contacts and their network is extremely covert and singular. I suspect there is a large covert spy network lurking within the Outer Sect, at the very least, related to the issue of the Perfected Realm Martial Uncle’s defection."

"That’s why I didn’t dare to act rashly. One, for fear of the message falling into their hands; two, afraid of startling the snakes in the grass. So, I only apprehended a few small fish. After much deliberation, out of desperation, I thought of seeking help from my pulse."

Wang Zijia didn’t show the slightest surprise, still maintaining his indifferent demeanor, "Over the years since the Sect was established, the Outer Sect has already formed its own system, and it’s become quite large now. It’s normal for it to mix with many good and bad fishes. We also have planted spies in Devil’s Door."

"I understand. It’s just that when I see these two-faced individuals, I’m quite upset. The Sect has never been stingy to them, yet why would they..." remarked Du Kang angrily.

"If you had met them instead of me before, and they were the ones who pulled you out of the Abyss, what would you have done?" asked Wang Zijia nonchalantly.

"Disciple... Disciple..." Du Kang hesitated for a moment, not daring to lie. Eventually, he reluctantly admitted: "Disciple doesn’t know!"
