Chapter 1313: Leave Slip

February 11th, light rain.

So frustrating. This path is blocked yet again. The Tribulation Transcendence stage is definitely not the limit of cultivation; there must be a path beyond it. I trust my instincts!(Frantically drawing some random lines)

Jianmu and the others are trying to persuade me. They say that the original purpose of creating the cultivation methods was simply to give humanity a foothold. Now that we've developed methods up to the Tribulation Transcendence stage, even the naturally divine demonic beasts only reach a level comparable to ours. They claim that with the protection of us nine Tribulation Transcendence-level powerhouses, demonic beasts no longer dare to invade humanity. They insist the focus should now be on managing humanity, helping it grow stronger, and producing more Tribulation Transcendence cultivators.

They also say that once humanity is stable and self-sufficient, and after standardizing measurements and such, they'll then join me in deducing the higher realms. They've been saying this for thousands of years! When will our people truly be stable? It's hard to imagine such words coming from creators of cultivation methods. Did all nine of us work together to create the eight great realms just for the sake of protecting humanity?

(A sudden realization) Understood, the mastermind is Wugensheng.

There's clearly a path ahead. Don't they have any desire to explore it? It's one thing for Shihuang and Shaohao to use such excuses, but Jianmu, you're a tree spirit! Are you even part of our human race? Besides, what's the point of protecting the clansmen? Can they help me find the way to break through the Tribulation Transcendence stage?

Jianmu and the others are yelling outside my door again, talking about a barbecue party. Huozheng is cooking, and everyone else is there, just waiting for me. Damn it, I clearly set up sound-insulating formations. How are their voices getting through? Shihuang must have broken my formation again. All they do is party every day. I feel like a cultivation genius like me doesn't fit in with them at all.

Fine. It's been a while since I've had Huozheng's skewers grilled with Samadhi True Flame. I'll go. I can resume working on cultivation methods later. It really is the original "Samadhi True Flame." Stop shouting, I'm coming out now.

Due to low viewership of "Wu Yao Zhuan," the sequel has been cancelled. "The Mastermind's Diary" begins today (definitely not under pressure from the mastermind).
