Chapter 166: Let’s Use Our Words
Liu Shunyi was completely speechless.
“Hold on a second. Before we dive into your help request, why don’t you tell me who you actually are?”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit immediately chimed in.
“I am the Will of the Heavenly Way!”
Liu Shunyi nodded.
“Oh, you know you’re the Will of the Heavenly Way? So, you, as the Will of the Heavenly Way, come to ask a mere Nascent Soul practitioner like me for help? Are you serious?”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit sighed in exasperation.
“Yes, I am the Will of the Heavenly Way, but do you have any idea how I woke up? It was quite a forced awakening, to say the least! Right now, my authority is only enough to mess around with thunder tribulations. Everything else is still sound asleep!”
“Of course, I wouldn’t put you in danger while asking for your help.”
Liu Shunyi closed his eyes, deep in thought.
The Will of the Heavenly Way piped up again.
“If you help me, the power you’ll gain there can elevate both you and Zhao Gou directly to the Body Integration Realm!”
Liu Shunyi quickly responded, “Hey now, we’re practically partners here. Your issues are my issues, so spit it out—what do I need to do?”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit could only blink in disbelief.
“Oh wow, you really don’t stop until you get the goods, huh?”
But thankfully, Liu Shunyi was willing to help.
“It’s simple. Inside this Cave Heaven, a fragment of my essence is suppressed, and the Emperor of Great Yan wants to swallow that fragment of my awareness. You mustn’t let him succeed! All you need to do is help me break the suppression, and I can reclaim that portion of my will.”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit smiled as he added, “And by sabotaging the Great Yan Emperor’s plans, he’ll definitely try to kill you. Once he attempts to do that, you’ll end up on the Golden Scroll, and that benefits both of us, doesn’t it?”
Liu Shunyi suddenly found himself at a loss for words.
“But I still think it’s really dangerous!”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit shook its head.
“I’ve already thought about that!”
While speaking, the Thunder Tribulation Spirit conjured a transparent cloth out of thin air.
If it weren’t for some wrinkles here and there, Liu Shunyi wouldn’t have even seen it.
“This is a special cloak for you and Zhao Gou to go invisible. Once you refine it, just a thought will render you invisible, and no one below the half-step Supreme stage will detect you.”
Liu Shunyi’s eyes lit up.
“This is nice!”
He promptly accepted it.
At that point, the Thunder Tribulation Spirit started explaining the details.
But the more Liu Shunyi listened, the more things felt off.
“Wait a second, the thing suppressing your essence is the blood curse of the Qiongqi! Only the most villainous and evil people can break that…”
After finishing his sentence, Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou turned their mental gazes back to the Thunder Tribulation Spirit.
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit simply smiled.
“Exactly. What’s the problem?”
Liu Shunyi took a deep breath.
“Let’s pause here. Can you choose your words more carefully?”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit chuckled.
“Actually, it’s not just the wicked; anyone of pure heart can also break the Qiongqi’s blood curse!”
Liu Shunyi shook his head.
“That’s even less likely. I may not be a bad person, but I’m certainly no saint.”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit replied, “Oh!”
Liu Shunyi: “???”
“What kind of reaction is that?”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit waved a hand dismissively.
“None of your business! Also, just a heads up—once my will is released, that suppressed spiritual essence can be consumed directly, but don’t take too much; it leaves something useful for later!”
Liu Shunyi nodded.
Satisfied with the outcome, the Thunder Tribulation Spirit promptly disappeared.
Liu Shunyi once more shouted, “Still here?”
After waiting for a while, no one responded.
He hurriedly said, “Brush buddy, come on…”
The Thunder Tribulation Spirit reappeared, looking at Liu Shunyi with an expression full of grievance.
“I’m doing you a favor, and yet you keep trying to squeeze me dry!”
“If you keep this up, I just might decide to stick around for good!”
Liu Shunyi: “…”
Well, in the end, Liu Shunyi didn’t get the closure he wanted.
However, he did genuinely want to try writing the Heavenly Way onto the scroll to see what might happen.
At present, it looked impossible.
But suddenly, Liu Shunyi noted an interesting detail.
As for enemies, it was their intent to kill him that prompted the desire to be written about.
He couldn’t control that.
But for these so-called incarnations of authority…
He probably could control that.
“What’s the principle at play here?”
After giving it some thought, Liu Shunyi made up his mind to test it out.
“Brush buddy, let’s write the Reincarnation…”
“Whoa~”
A woman appeared in Liu Shunyi’s mind, utterly bewildered.
Liu Shunyi: “…”
As the woman glanced about her unfamiliar but oddly familiar surroundings, she couldn’t help but ask, “Why am I here again?”
Liu Shunyi: “…”
“Never mind, just go back to sleep!”
The woman nodded and disappeared once more.
Liu Shunyi looked at the brush, pondering whether he could write about humans, but he quickly abandoned the idea.
After all, he was human!
What would it mean to write humanity onto the great scroll of the Dao? It would be digging his own grave!
What Liu Shunyi didn’t realize was that at this moment, in the place of Xumi, a pair of exceptionally beautiful eyes opened in alarm, surveying her surroundings. Finding nothing amiss, she closed them once again.

……
……
Recently, the Third Prince had been waiting for someone.
The reason he announced that the secret realm would open three days later was to entice more people to come.
The more people that showed up, the more excitement for the Third Prince.
He aimed to conduct a massacre within the secret realm.
Anyone who opposed him would meet their end.
As for Ji Suying’s previous kills involving those black-clothed men and the local inhabitants of the Cave Heaven, the Third Prince wouldn’t let a single one of them escape.
Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou were, of course, aware of the Third Prince’s plan.
Moreover, Zhao Gou even looked into why the Third Prince wanted to eliminate the local inhabitants without mercy, and what he found left him utterly astonished.
“Man, these Cave Heaven folks are just ridiculous.”
At that time, Liu Shunyi was also investigating.
It turned out these inhabitants were historical remnants of the last calamity.
Simply put, the people of the Cave Heaven were remnants left behind from a previous calamity.
Despite looking human, their actions nearly led to the extinction of humanity in the prior calamity!
In the end, they were simply sealed away in this Cave Heaven by the powerful, who also placed a curse upon them.
The Third Prince’s hatred was rooted in two reasons.
First of all, there was an ancient saying among the Cave Heaven people that if they could escape that realm, they would revive their demon god and exact bloody revenge on humanity.
Secondly, the Third Prince’s mother was forcibly taken by the Emperor of Great Yan.
The Emperor wanted to experiment with creating a non-cursed offspring by mating with someone who hadn’t sinned.
The outcome? A total failure.
And thus, the Third Prince was born—a failed product.
Furthermore, he had even witnessed his mother getting tormented to death by these brutes from a young age.
