<h4>Chapter 153: Ba Shifang</h4>


    Tianyi had a total of two clones: Juedai Fenghua and Donghai Longzi. He didn’t know where Juedai Fenghu’s location after she went missing. Even Su Bojing didn’t find any information concerning the missing San Jiuling and Dong Chifan, or any of the disciples of the Leakless Sect actually.


    The event had turned into quite a scandal. A good majority of the good seedlings from the lineage of the elders had gone missing, significantly affecting the next generation of the Leakless Sect. It had reached the point that the Leakless Sect even set their eyes on the Bright Ascension Sect.


    The Leakless Sect and Bright Ascension Sect were situated right next to each other, so they’ve always had conflict over resources between them. This was only further aggravated by the Bright Ascension Saintess’s, Ji Muyang’s, crime for inviting Longwei. It had even reached the point that the Buzhou Immortal Sect had to start paying attention to the matter. If there’s one good point, then that would be that San Jiuling’s and most of the other elder’s scions that apanied the disciple’s soulmps were still lit. Otherwise, a war between the two sects might really erupt.


    As for Donghai Longzi, he returned, or rather, arrived at the Buzhou Immortal Sect once a few months ago to drop off the treasures he gained from the inheritance site. Afterward, he left once again to explore more immortal inheritance sites. There was some trouble, but it was nothing Tianyi’s martial clone couldn’t solve. Tianyi only regretted that Longzi didn’t reach the peak of the Acupoint Opening Realm and enter the Soul Nourishing Realm before he left.


    Donghai Longzi, who knew of this, could only roll his eyes. Did the main body think that everyone was like him who had that illogically powerful cultivation method? His speed was already great, among the top percentage of all geniuses, don’tpare him to the main body’s monstrous cultivation speed, okay?


    And now Tianyi was going to create his third clone. Compared to the first two clones, Tianyi’s third clone’s future was going to be a bit tragic.


    Tianyi’s third clone was going to cultivate his newly created Nine-Five Scripture, a self-devised cultivation method that should supersede all current methods. Just the amount Tianyi was going to invest in this clone would make many true immortals go green with envy and rebuke Tianyi as a wastrel. But its whole purpose was to be ab rat for Tianyi.


    Unlike Tianyi’s other clones, his third clone was created with no cultivation and the one closest to the original Tianyi. But for some reason, the clone didn’t have Tianyi’s mutated heavenly lightning spiritual vein and had a heavenly earth spiritual vein instead. Thinking about it, Tianyi found it strange that the Heavenly Dao didn’t send some tribtion lightning at him while he created his third clone. This was too strange! The Heavenly Dao loved to take potshots at him!


    In the end, Tianyi could only conclude that the Heavenly Dao decided that it would not seed and saved its energy for future chances.


    Back to Tianyi’s newly created clone. Its face was only thirty percent simr to Tianyi’s appearance. Perhaps it was because Tianyi purged the Dragon Emperor’s influence, Tianyi’s third clone had no trace of the Dragon Emperor’s face at all. In fact, it held more resemnce to Mengfei than Tianyi himself. Tianyi even saw some foreign features that Tianyi guessed were contributed by his sperm donor. But what made Tianyi sullen was that except for those pair of eyes, his clone was actually more handsome and more beautiful than him, the main body!


    “I should’ve taken a more hands-on approach. Otherwise, this tragedy would have never urred,” Tianyi muttered. Has there been anyone who had a clone more beautiful than the main body?


    Tianyi was afraid that people who saw this would mutter behind his back and even secretlyugh at him!


    The newly created clone secretly rolled its eyes. Had there been anyone who was jealous of their own clone’s appearance? The way the clone saw it, as long as Tianyi didn’t say anything, no one would notice. After all, the most eyecatching were still those pair of mesmerizing eyes he inherited from Mengfei. Itpletely drew away attention from any other features on his face. Even if Tianyi’s face was full of scars, those eyes he inherited would still make him handsome.


    After the clone’s creation, Tianyi began to think of a name for his new clone. “Bai Laoshu?”


    The third clone almost spat out a mouthful of blood and red at Tianyi. “Main body, can you think of a less obvious name? I know I’m ab rat, but you can’t directly name me white mice!”


    Tianyi coughed into his fist. He wasn’t angry at his clone’s rebuke and even felt a bit guilty. If someone named him that, he, too, would be infuriated. Not to mention that it was his clone, so their personalities were highly simr. After deliberating for a while, Tianyi suggested a new name. “How about Ba Shifang?”


    The name literally tranted to eight and four directions. Eight referred to the eight symbols, and four directions were naturally for the four cardinal directions. The third clone thought about it for a while before nodding. Although it was not very creative, it was over a thousand times better than Bai Laoshu. So that was how Tianyi’s third clone became known as Ba Shifang.


    Ba Shifang began to cultivate the Nine-Five scripture under Tianyi’s monitoring. Since the clone possessed all of Tianyi’s experience and memories, he cultivated far faster than Tianyi and, with a vast amount of resources, reached the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm within a month. But that was the easy part, and now, Tianyi wanted Ba Shifang to open all eight extraordinary meridians.


    Even if Ba Shifang was the clone most simr to Tianyi, there were still some differences, and as a result, his eight extraordinary meridians were different than Tianyi’s own. And as Tianyi’s clone, even if he can’t cultivate the seventh grade of the Nine-Five Scripture, it must cultivate the sixth grade. And to do that, Ba Shifang must open all eight extraordinary meridians.


    Tianyi wasn’t willing to wait five years for Ba Shifang to open his extraordinary meridians. So Tianyi chucked Ba Shifang into a special space that isted him from any external influences, just like Mengfei had done to him all those years ago. And with a carefree heart, Tianyi left to y with his fellow reincarnators.


    “I rolled an eleven, so I move eleven spaces. I collect two hundred spirit stones andnd on Leakless Sect’s Arcane Soul Peak. Since it is not owned by anyone, I’ll purchase it. With this, I own all three of Leakless Sect’s, and I am able to purchase a house and mansion for my property.” Tianyi smiled as he paid the money and began setting up houses for the red-colored properties. “Your turn, Daoyi.”


    Daoyi picked up the dice and rolled it across the board. “Seven. Hmmm, Inded on amunity chest space. Umu, ‘You’ve contributed greatly to your sect, collect one hundred spirit stones.’ My turn is done. Your turn, Xi Ri.”


    “Let’s see. I rolled an eight. Moving eight spaces, Ind on Buzhou Immortal Sect’s Jade Peak. I’ll pay six hundred spirit stones for it and end my turn.” Xi Ri pointedly ignored Tianyi’s envious gaze.


    Su Bojing sighed and picked up the dice. “Double ones, I move two spaces andnd on a chance space. ‘You’ve broken the sect rules and are fined fifty spirit stones.’ Since I got a double, I’ll roll again. A double three this time, so I move six spaces andnd on Young Master’s properties. Since there are houses, I have to pay two hundred and twenty spirit stones. I roll again, another double, so I’m sent straight to jail.”


    “Bojing, are you alright? Don’t feel too bad about losing, okay. We yed this game more than you. You just have to y a few more times to get used to it.” Tianyiforted Su Bojing, who had the least amount of property and money.


    Although Tianyi, Daoyi, and Xi Ri had be more intimate, these words could not be spoken by Daoyi or Xi Ri. Daoyi was still a core formation master, and herforting Su Bojing was insulting him. As for Xi Ri, his position was even worse than Su Bojings had it not been for being Tianyi’s cousin.


    “Young Master, do you really think I’ll be this sullen just because I yed this… monopoly?” Su Bojing asked, his whole body exuding a gloomy aura.


    That’s right, Tianyi brought monopoly into the Huang Realm.


    He didn’t spread it and only yed it with Daoyi and Xi Ri most of the time. If it were anyone else, he would not have dared to bring out to y. Part of him was using it reminiscence about their times back on Earth, and the other part was using it to remind himself of his origins.


    “Then why are you so depressed?” Tianyi couldn’t help but ask.


    “I couldn’t get a spot for the Demon ying Expedition.” Su Bojing sullenly said. “A hundred years ago, I was already envious of those who could get a spot. And now, after fighting so hard to get a chance at getting a spot, I didn’t get the spot. Even worse, I was defeated in a single move!”


    “Ah,” Tianyi looked away. He nced at Daoyi and Xi Ri, who both got a spot and felt like he shouldn’t say anything.


    “Young Master, are you able to get me a spot?” Su Bojing asked, his eyes full of hope.


    Tianyi coughed into his fist. “For these matters, it’s better to do it with your own strength and not rely on connections. Otherwise, it would disseminate unsavory rumors.”


    Su Bojing stared even harder at Tianyi. “Didn’t Young Master get a spot without fighting for it?”


    Tianyi felt the edge of his lips twitch at the jealousy in Su Bojing’s words. “Bojing, if I reallypeted for a spot, do you think anyone would be my opponent?”


    This wasn’t Tianyi boasting. He really did have the capabilities to say those words. Although he didn’t show his strength off much, but his fight against the Dragon Emperor was more than enough proof of his capabilities. Plus, he had already proven his strength in the Heavenly Connection Gathering. Not to mention, he was even stronger than before after his creation of the Nine-Five Scripture.


    Tianyi wasn’t done speaking yet. “And besides, do you really have the right to speak such words to me?”


    Su Bojing stilled upon realizing how disgraceful he was acting towards Tianyi as a follower. “Forgive me.” Su Bojing stood up and quickly bowed upon realizing his mistake. Perhaps, Tianyi had treated him too well to make him forget that he was Tianyi’s subordinate and not a friend, allowing him to think that he could take liberties.


    Tianyi treated Su Bojing more like a friend than an actual servant, even going as far as to joke with him. But perhaps he was too magnanimous and made Su Bojing forget the difference between the two.


    “Just shut it,” Tianyi said as he waved his hand. He didn’t want to hear any more of Su Bojing’s excuses. He hated being told that he only got his current strength and belongings due to his connections, but because most of them were from outsides, he didn’t care much. But Su Bojing was someone who followed him for years, so this triggered Tianyi’s temper. “Go reflect upon your actions for the next month. I don’t want to see your face.”


    “Many thanks,” Su Bojing said.


    It was a light punishment, but the more light it was, the more fearful his heart was. He would be more relieved if Tianyi punished him harshly. At least this meant that Tianyi vented his anger. Unlike now, where he was treading on thin ice.


    In truth, Su Bojing was treading on thin ice. If Su Bojing made another mistake like that again, Tianyi nned to drive him away. He wouldn’t take away Su Bojing bestowments, but he would no longer aid Su Bojing in anyways. As for the punishment, Tianyi didn’t like physical punishments, so he only made Su Bojing self-reflect.


    As for a new subordinate? Tianyi could directly ask Xi Ri. Xi Ri had a vastwork of connections, and Tianyi’s trust in him deepened due to their shared origins.


    “What’s use is taking his words seriously? He didn’t mean it.” Xi Ri said.


    “Even though Senior Brother Su is half a friend, but as Tianyi’s subordinate, he should have never spoken those words,” Daoyi interjected. “Senior Brother Su isn’t considered too outstanding, you can always find another. As the one closest to Tianyi, he is the one most likely to realize our secret. If he were to be loose with his house, it might spell disaster upon us.”


    Tianyi waved his hand, no longer interested in ying games. “It’s fine, this is hisst chance. I just thought of something, so I’ll leave first.”


    When Tianyi stood up to leave, he paused for a moment. “Oh right, the Demon ying Expedition ising up soon. How about you guys travel with me?”
