I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1485 - 489: Swallowing Whole

"Mr. Zhang, this thing..."

"Oh, it's probably a cultivation technique for a Level Nine perfect creature. Although you're currently just a Level Four life form, as long as you cultivate diligently, you should be able to thrash some ordinary Level Five and Level Six life forms!"

"A cultivation technique for a Level Nine perfect creature?" Yao Ge's hand trembled slightly as he held the cultivation technique.

In the Main World, the cultivation system has become relatively simple. Cultivation techniques below perfect creatures are uniformly referred to as Black Iron Level techniques. Most Level One to Level Three perfect creatures cultivate Golden Level techniques, Level Four to Level Six perfect creatures cultivate Stellar Level techniques, and those above Level Seven are said to cultivate Dao Level techniques.

However, in reality, techniques of various levels are extremely rare. Even many Level Seven and above perfect creatures only cultivate slightly better Stellar Level techniques because no new Dao Level techniques have been created since the Cang Yuan Era.

In other words, existing Dao Level techniques are the remnants preserved from the Cang Yuan Era, and most are incomplete. Those who manage to obtain them are as rare as a phoenix's feather, and those who can acquire them are undoubtedly the top beings in the Main World pyramid.

Most importantly, Dao Level techniques can break the innate growth limits of perfect creatures! This is one of the main reasons the perfect creatures of the Cang Yuan Era could continuously surpass themselves.

If Yao Ge can cultivate it to a certain extent, he might be able to break his life level bottleneck and reach a higher realm!

Although Yao Ge is already a Level Four perfect creature, he is currently only cultivating a Golden Level technique. Even with all the assets and resources of the Sun Palace, it would be challenging to purchase a Stellar Level technique, and such items are generally not up for sale!

And yet, Zhang Menglong has offered a Dao Level technique right off the bat—how wealthy must he be to do so? This kind of thing could spark a bloody storm in the central region of the Main World, potentially leading to earth-shattering conflict across the entire realm!

"I'm telling you, the energy required for my breakthrough is terrifyingly immense. By that time, you'll suffer a loss, and I guess your Sun Temple will be drained. Are you sure you don't want some compensation?" Zhang Menglong asked with a smile.

Although their Sun Palace isn't particularly strong, it has been around for two or three billion years, and the energy accumulated within the Sun Temple could even create a Level Five or Six perfect creature. For them, that energy is virtually inexhaustible.

Yao Ge could hardly imagine Zhang Menglong consuming so much energy to ascend as a perfect creature. Still, regardless of any compensation, this Dao Level technique was right in front of him; he'd be a fool not to accept it! 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Since Mr. Zhang insists, I'll accept it," Yao Ge smoothly pocketed the scroll, "Honestly, it's not about the technique itself. I'm just worried that Mr. Zhang might feel guilty, and if it affects your mindset and breakthrough, that would be inconvenient."

"Darn, how can the Palace Master be so shameless?"

"If you want it, just say so. Why act as if you're reluctant?"

"Truly, trying to be virtuous after accepting a favor; everyone knows he could have just taken it straightforwardly without putting up a pretense."

The legion commanders whispered among themselves, though they were also envious—this was a Dao Level technique, and if Yao Ge succeeded, the status of the Sun Palace could ascend greatly. After a period of dormancy, even if relying on their own strength, the Palace Master could sweep across the Golden God Seat.

Unfortunately, only the Palace Master reaped these benefits.

Among the legion commanders and their subordinates, some harbored scheming thoughts—after all, Dao Level techniques, though unseen, are known to be exceedingly rare and powerful. If they sold this information to a major power, they couldn't wield the technique but would still reap great benefits, right?

Yao Ge, in fact, thought of this as well and became slightly worried.

Zhang Menglong noticed Yao Ge's expression and naturally understood his concerns. He produced a few more Golden and Stellar Level technique scrolls. "After disposing of the Golden God Seat, my homeland will need caretakers, so I'll need to count on you all. Consider this an advance payment."

Yao Ge knew Zhang Menglong was helping him, and he raised the techniques overhead, "From today onward, anyone in the Sun Palace below legion command can cultivate Golden Level techniques. Those at the legion command level may cultivate Stellar Level techniques!"

"Wow!"

Instantly, there was a thunderous cheer.

Indeed, betraying the Palace Master might yield benefits, but can one obtain Stellar and Golden Level techniques that way? Knowing this, even the invincible being that is the owner of the Golden God Seat could be practicing just a lower-grade Stellar Level technique, while they have direct access. Could anyone else offer such benefits?

In a flash, everyone's loyalty to the Golden God Seat became unwavering.

And, most importantly, this big shot's homeland is right here—how could their development falter while they served as caretakers? One day, perhaps having a Dao Level technique each won't be a dream! By being loyal now, they become senior staff, and when the company goes public, they'll get stock dividends!

...

After instructing the legion commanders to tidy up the chaotic palace, Yao Ge personally led Zhang Menglong to the Sun Temple.

The Sun Temple was a 20,000-meter-tall platform, resembling a massive pyramid, with a platform roughly 100 meters long and wide at the top. However, even on Earth, such architecture would be considered miraculous, entirely beyond ordinary human capability.

The entire pyramid was a gigantic formation, connecting the heavens and celestial bodies. Countless energy streams coalesced into a brilliant beam of light, forming a slowly rotating golden star atop the pyramid.

At that moment, the star had a radius of about five kilometers, making the whole pyramid appear like the star's pedestal from afar.

"Mr. Zhang, that star is all the energy our Sun Palace has amassed in these two billion-plus years. Do you think it's enough for your breakthrough?" Yao Ge was very confident in his temple. Even ascending a perfect creature from Level Five to Level Six might not consume all this energy.

"Barely enough!" Zhang Menglong nodded. The energy was indeed abundant, but to his body, akin to a bottomless pit, it might be just enough to breakthrough, with possibly not much left over.

"Barely enough!" Yao Ge looked at Zhang Menglong as though he were a monster. What kind of creature needs so much energy to ascend as a perfect being? This defied logic!

"I'm starting!" Zhang Menglong gently floated into the sky, "The sky as furnace, the earth as cauldron—Heaven and Earth Domineering Qi Art, devour for me!"

In an instant, the sky changed color, and a massive cauldron, over ten kilometers long, appeared in the midair, as though it could contain the entire sky!

The cauldron opened and directly swallowed the entire star!

"What technique is this? Even Dao Level techniques aren't this fierce, are they?" Yao Ge smiled wryly. The entire energy star was refined in one go. It's a good thing he demanded compensation; otherwise, wouldn't he be at a complete loss?
