I Am Your Natural Enemy

”Fourth Great-uncle Master, please trouble you to preside over this, and record the numbering of the contents inside each White Banner Wooden Slab.”

If this cooperation goes well, with an improved program and process, I have some other ideas for the future.”

”What ideas do you have again?” Fourth Great-uncle Master directly asked, not bothering to guess, as he simply couldn’t keep up with Wen Yan’s thought process.

”It’s not easy to say now, I just have a small idea.”

Wen Yan thought for a while but still didn’t mention his little idea.

Ever since the progress on the Calamity Protector Water Official Talisman advanced and the extra ”Pulse” effect appeared, the cultivation progress has significantly accelerated, and the conversion and linkage of the five viscera were about to be completed.

Once the muscles, bones, blood, and internal organs are completed, his cultivation should continue advancing to the head.

It wouldn’t have been possible for Zhang Xuewen to act as a guinea pig that quickly; he couldn’t have forced himself to test and achieve the current perfect diagram either.

At that time, he realized that relying on himself alone had its limits.

Similarly, in the Three Mountains and Five Ridges, the various hand prints, finger prints, Gang Steps, Yu Steps, curse scriptures, and talismans could all be integrated into Xin Dao.

Relying solely on himself, it was absolutely impossible to complete such a workload.

When he passed Xin Dao to Zhang Xuewen, he had the thought that since it was impossible for him alone to complete such a massive workload, nor to innovate something new alone.

Why not bring more people to help complete this grand task together?

And the most crucial point of Xin Dao is the Scorching Sun.

He had heard more than once that if the Thirteenth Ancestor hadn’t died young, he would have certainly engraved the Scorching Sun into the Celestial Court, turning it into a talisman.

Previously, when someone targeted him, it wasn’t really against him, Wen Yan, but against the identity of the modern Scorching Sun.

Even now, there are surely still people lurking in the shadows because of ideological differences, watching him and waiting for an opportunity.

Wen Yan wasn’t too concerned about these people. As long as they don’t show themselves, as long as they don’t extend their claws and keep some sense in their hearts, he couldn’t possibly dig them out and kill them without them doing anything.

Ideological discord is actually a very normal situation. Wen Yan believes that even within that faction, there are certainly many types, such as radicals, moderates, and so on.

If all those who maintain the idea that ”Scorching Sun shouldn’t be engraved into the Celestial Court” were completely united and ideologically consistent, they wouldn’t be hiding one by one.

The weak need to hide.

If they were strong, able to punch the Scorching Sun Department, kick the Three Mountains and Five Ridges, and pin Wen Yan to the ground with one hand, who would bother with these small tricks?

Wen Yan was originally not very interested in those matters. Maybe when he gets older and is about to die, if he could ascend, he might directly ascend to the Celestial Court, turning the Scorching Sun into a talisman and engrave it into the Celestial Court.

At least at this stage, he wasn’t really interested.

But now, Wen Yan began to have some ideas.

He started pondering whether there was a way to engrave the Scorching Sun into the Celestial Court without ascending.

He wanted to find many Parus to help open the way together, but surely he couldn’t lack the most basic, rigid conditions.

Without the Scorching Sun, without the foundational Scorching Sun Fist, except for the foundation-laying part of the First Stage, whoever practices it would lack substance.

The final part of the Third Stage requires impacting the head. Wen Yan was pondering over calling Zhang Xuewen at the end of the month to try.

He was really uncertain about doing it himself.

He was even considering whether to find a few big shots to help advise.

After obtaining the most harmonious route map from Zhang Xuewen, he was accustomed to eating fine grains, and now he found it difficult to settle for less.

Besides the most difficult opening of the way, there were more complicated things afterward that all require people to accomplish.

Alternatively, these complex things were something he could do at this stage, and he didn’t necessarily have to open more roads to proceed.

This time will be a small test. If all goes smoothly, it would somewhat lay the foundation for his small ideas.

The rest can be pondered slowly in the future.

This kind of thing is not suitable to be said now.

If the news leaks, it would surely provoke those who already don’t like the modern Scorching Sun, turning them into extremists.

It’s better to keep a low profile, at least there’s no need now.

When it’s feasible, just do it directly, cut through the mess quickly, and let whoever shows themselves afterward face the consequences.

Wen Yan didn’t mention these things and Fourth Great-uncle Master didn’t ask. When Wen Yan made a call home, preparing to open a window, Fourth Great-uncle Master handed over a stack of books to Wen Yan.

”Read more books when you get back. It’s not necessary to fully understand, but having some knowledge is very necessary for things like common sense.”

Fourth Great-uncle Master pointed to the top book in the stack, its title simply being ”Common Sense.” It was obviously not officially published and was self-printed.

Fourth Great-uncle Master especially pointed at this book, telling Wen Yan to read it carefully when he got back.

”In addition, that hilltop, since you’ve chosen it, and established a Domain there, then that hilltop is yours.”

”Uh...”

”I’ve checked, although the Domain is based on that hilltop, apart from entering from the Domain’s entrance, other places remain normal mountains, unaffected by each other.”
