(Sorry, it was a bit muddled in my writing earlier. ng Yu had actually brought back a second batch of equipnt to the Immortal Sect on his previous return, which I forgot to ntion. I've corrected it earlier, apologies.)
While others were busy with their own affairs, ng Yu focused on his own. They talked, ng Yu listened, and then ng Yu continued to enhance his own power.
The Blood Pool of Ten Thousand Spirits was an excellent tool; he could feel his vitality surging and his strength skyrocketing.
This sensation was vastly different from that of Qi Cultivation; the Blood Pool had elevated his physique to a level comparable to the Vajra Body or Glazed Body found on so martial arts planets, where Qi Cultivation had been perfected.
Although these people, relying solely on their physical bodies, could not defeat those at the Foundation Establishnt or Golden Core stages, this was, after all, a comprehensive enhancent of the physical condition in just over twenty days. It was as if the house had been built, and yet the foundation could still be strengthened!
During the Body Refinent process, ng Yu did not choose any other Cultivation Techniques but continued to practice the 'Borrowing Force to Strike' technique.
Using force to counter force, resolving and dissipating it, protecting vital points, turning True Qi into a spiral shape to absorb and reflect attacks—this technique.
This technique didn't belong to mainstream Body Refining Techniques, but ng Yu was particularly fond of it. In countless battles, it was this technique that had helped him to victory or allowed him to avoid attacks.
Each day, after the guests left, ng Yu would openly practice this set of techniques, including having Wooden Puppets strike him forcefully. As the chances to grow stronger by tenfold or a hundredfold beca increasingly scarce in the future, he started down the path of stacking and refining a single technique incessantly.
The everyday routine of cultivation was just that, unadorned and straightforward.
Then ca the next day, with new visitors arriving.
For the following seven days, all visitors had booked appointnts in advance, and any changes had to be communicated to ng Yu beforehand.
The first visitor was ng Yu's fellow countryman. He was born on the Immortal Sect's Supre Star and grew up strong under the nurturing care of the Immortal Sect. He attended one of the top five prestigious schools and, after graduation, went to Black Africa to work on gray infrastructure—no, that is, to realize his life's value in the Blood God Sect.
He was a very open-minded man, feeling that a step-by-step life in the Immortal Sect was aningless; a calm life would just lead to decades of the sa as a civil servant, even if he went to battle... well, so things are better left unsaid. He ca to the Blood God Sect and beca the Deputy Governor of a planet, then moved on to various positions, including selling local special products of the Blood God Sect back to the Immortal Sect. All in all, he had a very satisfying life.
He was proudest of having governed eleven planets, helping billions of people live better lives, supporting many more to settle on new planets, and wiping out nurous mbers of the Foreign Race.
ng Yu was delighted to have tea and chat with him, discussing all things related to pioneering and even seeking his advice on how to establish one's own power on a foreign land filled with enemies.
His exciting life would continue, and ng Yu wanted to gain more experience.
The second visitor practiced a Cultivation Technique sowhat similar to the Eternal Night Palace's 'Great Black Sun'; ng Yu exchanged so intelligence with him, and both were satisfied.
The third, the fourth...
The second day of conversations ended perfectly, primarily because the guests spoke, ng Yu listened—being a good listener helped him better understand the universe and gain more insights about the Golden Cores of the Blood God Sect.
Investors choose their projects, and projects choose their investors. ng Yu had proven his strength, and now, he needed to figure out whether the Blood God Sect was worth investing in.
ng Yu didn't understand the Blood God Sect very well, but by knowing so of the Golden Cores' characters, thinking, and stories, he had a rough idea of the sect.
Then he would know whether it was a one-shot deal or a potential long-term cooperation.
The third day ca, and he continued to receive visitors.
Everyone was interested in having a chat and getting to know ng Yu better.
Talking with everyone, ng Yu was like a wealthy man coming to a remote area for investnt. His job wasn't to think about how to make money first but to blend in with the local officials, wine and dine, flatter them, understand the situation, and then make a decision.
So far, the Blood God Sect seed generous, openly showing him around, listening and learning, without trying to capture him or coerce him with various ans from the start. They treated him well, but mostly they communicated with him earnestly and properly through regular procedures.
This even included the main contact, Xia Hailu. That woman had many faults—arrogant, neurotic, and rude. They considered swapping her for soone better, but after consulting with ng Yu, he said, "I like seeing people full of faults," so they left her in charge.
Not bad.
...
Days went by one after another.
The seventh day, which was the last day of interviews, arrived.
Yu Xuetong from the Immortal Sect waited outside expressionlessly.
A large crowd looked at him as if he were Kong Yiji, observing this man who ca to wait near ng Yu's residence every day to seek an audience yet was never received by ng Yu.
"He's here again."
"It must be instructions from the Immortal Sect, right?"
"Who knows what the Immortal Sect wants to do."
Six days were the fastest round-trip communication ti from Ceres to the Immortal Sect's Supre Star. When Xiao Jun ntioned that he wanted to purchase a large number of Magical Treasures, it was effectively revealing his identity. The ambassador of the Immortal Sect on Ceres was shaken to the core by this developnt.
After they sent a ssage to the Immortal Sect, the reply was the sa as always, 'not our problem,' and they instructed to negotiate with ng Yu by all ans, to convince him of the Immortal Sect, and to bring him back. They agreed to all the conditions he had previously set forth, except for the last one!
