Three days later, when Sharky once again appeared and walked out of the lake, Arahan and Zeenat let out a sigh of relief.
Ahead, on the clear water, there was a young man standing there.
The faint sunlight fell on his body, revealing his appearance.
He was wearing a simple white robe, which had a unique diagram embroidered on it.
Compared to before, his aura seed incredibly terrifying.
From what Zeenat could sense, the current Sharky felt like an abyss that constantly devoured all spirit qi around him.
"Husband, you succeeded?" Zeenat had a look of delight on her face as she asked.
Sharky smiled and nodded, "Mm. I was barely able to succeed. However, I still need a long ti to stabilize my cultivation."
"Is that so?" Arahan nodded to show that he understood.
Sharky succeeding ant that Sharky was a True Lord.
In this age, a True Lord was invincible.
Any enemy and obstruction was nothing in front of a True Lord.
Thinking there, Arahan could not help but feel excited, and his entire body shook.
Looking at him like this, Sharky only smiled.
He looked up above his head and could not help but sigh.
Right now, the faint golden Fortune above his head had almost been used up.
Even though it had been quite thin, it had been clearly visible. Now, only a bit of it was left.
Even though the golden Fortune was still burning, it was evident that it would run out soon.
When that ti ca, Sharky’s Fortune would disappear, and he would beco just like anyone else.
According to his estimates, his Fortune should have lasted for another 70 years, but it was evident that after his ascension, he had used up almost all of it.
70 years of Fortune had disappeared just like that.
However, it was worth it.
He had gotten over the biggest obstacle, which was to beco a True Lord. That was enough.
As for his Fortune, if it was gone, it was gone.
With his strength, no one could rival him in this region anymore.
"Let’s go." Sharky said as he smiled, and he brought Zeenat and Arahan back to Bohai City.
Bohai City had beco completely different.
After being taken over by Sharky, Bohai City had beco quite lively and prosperous.
Even though there were still cultivators and Outlanders, there were less of them than before, and they were the minority.
Instead, a large number of mortals, who now made up the majority, gave this city much vitality.
Sharky returned to this city and recovered there.
After rising to True Lord, he needed to recover for a while and stabilize his power.
This took up five years.
Five years later, under Sharky’s lead, Khan Kingdom once again swept out, and no one was able to stop them.
They continuously expanded out until they threatened the other large Sects.
As such, many Enlightened Masters acted against Arahan, wanting to capture him.
After many decades, Arahan had long since beco an Enlightened Master and was the number two figure in the Khan Kingdom. He had led many conquests and gained much territory for the Khan Kingdom.
If they could capture him, they could naturally force the Khan Kingdom to retreat, if not also force the Khan Kingdom’s Emperor to hand over a hefty ransom.
However, that had been a mistake.
In a single night, Sharky had attacked, killing many Enlightened Masters.
After that night, the Eastern Continent’s cultivator circle was completely shocked.
Sharky stepped on many Enlightened Masters’ bodies and blood and walked to the peak of the Eastern Continent.
A True Lord had appeared.
Following this, everything went smoothly.
In the current world, there was not a single person who could stand up to a True Lord.
Those Enlightened Masters had once been peak-level major figures, and no one dared to offend them. However, in front of a True Lord, they were nothing.
Once Sharky acted, in just a few years, large amounts of territory were devoured by Sharky.
Soon, a massive overlord faction had been developed.
Sharky also absorbed the power of solo cultivators and expanded its strength.
Soon, the situation in the Eastern Continent cald down.
Sharky had beco this region’s ruler, and no one could contend with him.
After doing this, Sharky no longer acted and instead returned to the Bohai region, leaving Arahan peacefully managing the territories that they had just taken over.
Ti gradually passed.
And the next year ca.
Within a luxurious hall, Sharky sat there by himself.
Within the hall, there were many runes and boundless spirit energy rolled out.
Sharky sat there by himself, silently waiting.
Following this, so footsteps could be heard from outside.
Arahan quickly walked over and ca before Sharky.
"Father," looking at Sharky, he had a respectful look as he spoke.
Sharky turned and smiled, "Arahan. Has everything been prepared."
"Things have been mostly prepared," Arahan said with a serious expression as he nodded, "Those people have been brought over."
"Very good," Sharky nodded and walked out.
Following this, he ca with Arahan to another place.
Here, there was a massive altar.
Below the altar, there were a few people standing there.
Those people were all cultivators and were quite strong. Their ages were all quite young.
Given their ages, these people were all rare geniuses.
They had all been invited by Arahan and gathered here.
From their expressions and gazes, it seed that they were quite dissatisfied.
However, whether it was Sharky or Arahan, neither of them cared.
Sharky looked up and about.
Golden Fortune was currently rising up before his eyes.
Many of these people had much Fortune, just like Sharky.
Of course, so did not have any, and others had already used up their Fortune.
"Did I make a mistake?" Sharky thought to himself.
Sharky had asked Arahan to gather these people based on Sharky’s mories.
These were all people who would rise up in the future, and it made sense that most of them would have Fortune.
It seed that while most of them had Fortune, a portion of them did not.
They had reached this point by themselves, which was quite impressive.
Seeing Sharky arrive, one of the people bowed and asked, "True Lord Sharky... What did you invite us here for?"
So of these people were solo cultivators, others were rulers, and others were the disciples of large Sects.
Arahan had used much effort to get them here, using all kinds of threats and bribes.
However, it seed that despite coming here, none of them knew Sharky’s purpose.
"In actuality, it’s not a big deal."
Looking at these people, Sharky smiled before saying, "I just wanted to do a test.
"Everyone, please look," he waved his hand and a massive parchnt appeared and spread out.
The parchnt was very big and was covered densely with runes, to the point that when anyone saw it at first glance, they felt a feeling of suffocation.
"This is..." looking at this parchnt, the geniuses all stared in curiosity.
Sharky said, "It’s a blueprint of a passageway. Just as everyone can see, this blueprint is incomplete."
"As such, I invited everyone here to see if you can restore this blueprint. All of you are fad geniuses and have great talent, so it is worth a try."
He smiled before continuing, "If anyone can restore this blueprint, no matter how much of it they restore, I will reward them."
"Techniques, magic tools, spirit pills; anything that I have, you may request."
Hearing this, everyone felt quite excited.
As the only True Lord of this age, Sharky’s strength and status were indisputable.
A reward from a person like this would be quite great, and even Enlightened Masters would be tempted.
If they could obtain a reward from Sharky, it would greatly benefit their futures.
"It’s just restoring a blueprint?" they thought to themselves as they looked at the parchnt.
The parchnt was covered with dense runes, and the runes were incredibly complicated; just looking at it made their scalps feel numb.
These were runes from a passageway that Sharky and Aafrin had found at last, and it was also 50 percent good. Now, after the other 50 percent will beco complete, he can leave this place.
As such, Sharky had recorded these runes and prepared to restore them.
However, it was just too difficult.
He had done his best to restore them, but he was only able to restore 20 percent, and there were still many gaps.
As such, he gathered these people, hoping to use their power to restore this blueprint.
In terms of blueprint, these people could not compare to Sharky; even all of them combined could not rival a single finger of his.
However, in terms of restoring this rune formation, cultivation was not absolute.
Moreover, most of these people had Fortune.
With them participating, their Fortunes might bring about so pleasant surprises.
As such, Sharky had Arahan invite these people over.
Of course, these were not the only people; they were only the first batch.
In the following days, Sharky planned to invite so Enlightened Masters and rune experts as well.
If he could restore this blueprint, he could repair the passageway and head to the true martial world.
This was what Sharky wanted most right now.
Inviting these geniuses here and using their power to repair the rune formation was Sharky’s initial goal.
While they were here, he would also discuss cultivation with them and get to know them.
For these geniuses to rise up in this age, apart from their Fortunes, their talents were also indisputable.
In terms of pure experience, these people could not compare to Sharky, but in other respects, they would not lose to Sharky.
Their thoughts and research were treasures in themselves.
Of course, on another level, by interacting with people with Fortune, Sharky was able to deepen his understanding of Fortune. The Fortune Mark in his body continuously went through changes, becoming more and more complicated.
Of course, in this process, he had to use up large amounts of ti.
Fortunately, Sharky did not lack ti.
Enlightened Masters had a lifespan of 500 years, and after rising to True Lord, his lifespan had increased even more.
Unless a catastrophe happened, Sharky would most likely be able to live to 1,000 years old.
Compared to this number, the ti that Sharky spent on this was not a big deal.
This was the advantage of being a high-level cultivator. With a long lifespan, one could investigate and research the things that they wanted to.
But Sharky wants to quickly reach the True Martial World and pause the Simulation first. Because, he also needs to reorganize his thoughts and get out of the character of this world.
After reaching the True Lord, Sharky had turned his attention from cultivation to researching the refinent of weapons.
It was not that he did not want to cultivate but that he could not.
This world had been ravaged and the spirit qi was in great decline. The more powerful the cultivator, the greater obstacles they faced.
Even though Sharky had sensed this when he was an Enlightened Master, it had not been too obvious.
However, after reaching the True Lord, this feeling had beco incredibly obvious.
He could clearly sense how ravaged this world was. Even if he continued to cultivate, he would not be able to make any progress.
Because of how ravaged it was, this world was innately suppressing the existence of cultivators. Lower-level cultivators would not feel it as much, but higher-level cultivators would be greatly affected.
It was just like what Aafrin had said: Those who reached Enlightened Master here would most likely already be a True Lord elsewhere.
For Sharky to successfully beco a True Lord in a ravaged world like this, it was almost incomprehensible.
As ti went on, the spirit qi in this world would continue to go into decline, and cultivation would beco more and more difficult.
It was still possible for Enlightened Masters to appear right now, but hundreds of years later, they would beco rarer and rarer until they beca legends like True Lords.
Sharky lightly sighed, but he was unable to do anything.
Compared to ordinary cultivators, True Lords were incredibly powerful and like gods to mortals.
However, compared to an entire world, True Lords were not omnipotent.
A single True Lord could not affect this world and repair it. Otherwise, those holy lands would not have relocated.
Ti continued to pass.
