Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”

Chapter 574: Recruiting Talent

Li Chun shook his head. "Better to avoid trouble. This person is absolutely not simple. This Sovereign is only one step away from breaking through to Chaos Dominator. Now, these Origin Divine Crystals have arrived at just the right time. Keep one hundred and sixty thousand of the Origin Divine Crystals. You may arrange the remaining ten thousand as you see fit!"

"Yes!" Li Shanchang felt a surge of joy in his heart.

He could take a portion of the Origin Divine Crystals for his own cultivation.

The conversation between the two fell completely into Su Yuan's ears.

He glanced at Li Chun. This guy had actually nurtured his Little Chaos to the final step, and even already possessed the conditions to enter "Nothingness".

Now, with the supplement of these one hundred and sixty thousand Chaos Jades, there really was a certain possibility of breaking through to Chaos Dominator.

Su Yuan began to obtain all sorts of information about this Chaos.

This Chaos was clearly also a Life-bound Chaos opened by a Chaos Dominator. Currently, there wasn't a single one inside the Chaos who had successfully broken through to Chaos Dominator, and the Dominator who opened the Chaos was also whereabouts unknown.

Su Yuan took a look and discovered that the number of treasures in this Chaos was truly scarce. The ones he had fished out earlier actually accounted for a rather large portion.

However, besides these treasures, there was another resource that Su Yuan cared about more, and that was the cultivator Li Chun himself.

This was also a resource.

After Li Shanchang left.

Just as Li Chun was about to immerse himself in cultivation, he suddenly sensed something unusual.

He immediately reopened his eyes, seeing with his naked eyes a figure in front of him, silently watching him.

Yet, Li Chun's spiritual sense perception couldn't detect the slightest trace of the other party's aura.

However, he could also see that this was just an Incarnation, not containing much power.

"Fellow Daoist, are you Master Empty Void?" Li Chun asked solemnly.

"Hehe, indeed!" Su Yuan smiled slightly.

"What business does Fellow Daoist have?" Li Chun said with implied meaning, "Fellow Daoist went through so many circles to find me, surely not just to deliver Origin Divine Crystals to me?"

Clearly, he thought Su Yuan had done all this precisely to find him.

Su Yuan smiled slightly and said, "This Sovereign is a Chaos Dominator from a foreign land."

Li Chun's heart shook violently, his heart skipping a beat: "What instructions does Senior have?"

"You are about to break through to Chaos Dominator and will be affiliated with this Chaos. I want to make a trade with you. Change your affiliation target to me, and I can give you ten million Origin Divine Crystals as an exchange condition!"

Li Chun asked doubtfully, "What do you mean by 'affiliation'?"

"Simply put, a subordinate Chaos," Su Yuan stated plainly.

Li Chun's face darkened, instantly understanding Su Yuan's meaning.

And this matched his previous speculation perfectly. He had a feeling that after breaking through to Chaos Dominator, he would also be subject to constraints.

"I will not restrict your freedom. The tribute your Chaos pays to my Chaos can also be reduced to the minimum of ten percent. I only ask that you act for me when I need it, and I will provide compensation! The master of this Chaos may not be as kind-hearted as I am. The tribute could be as high as seventy percent, freedom would be restricted, and the benefits wouldn't be much either! Consider it carefully!" Su Yuan said calmly.

"However, you need to decide quickly. Without my concealment, your thoughts will instantly be exposed under that one's gaze."

Li Chun naturally couldn't believe Su Yuan based solely on his one-sided words.

So he just wore a contemplative expression and didn't agree immediately.

Su Yuan waved a hand, using the means of [World Traveler] to teleport ten million Chaos Jades out of thin air.

Li Chun sensed the spatial fluctuation ahead. Upon seeing this pile of Origin Divine Crystals, his eyes grew fervent.

"If you agree, these Origin Divine Crystals are yours!" Su Yuan said calmly.

Li Chun hesitated for a moment, then stored the Origin Divine Crystals within his body.

Su Yuan revealed a smile.

Clearly, Li Chun had agreed.

"Don't resist. I will transfer you and your Little Chaos to my Chaos!" Su Yuan said seriously.

Li Chun nodded: "I will heed the Great One's words!"

Su Yuan focused his mind, his will enveloping Li Chun and his Little Chaos.

As [World Traveler] activated!

In an instant, Li Chun disappeared.

When Li Chun reappeared, he had already been teleported by Su Yuan to the location of the Heavenly Fate Chaos (Primordial Chaos).

Li Chun discovered he had arrived at another place. He could clearly feel that the Dao Principle system between heaven and earth had undergone a drastic change.

Given his realm, he could roughly sense that the number of Dao Principles between heaven and earth was extremely high, at least exceeding ten thousand. Compared to the three thousand Dao Principles of the Chaos he was in before, this was undoubtedly much more powerful!

"Break through here!"

Su Yuan appeared out of thin air in front of Li Chun.

He pointed a finger, transmitting a piece of information to Li Chun.

"This is my experiential insight from breaking through to Chaos Dominator. Contemplate it well!"

Li Chun was overjoyed: "Thank you, Great One, for your assistance. In the future, I will definitely share your burdens!"

Su Yuan nodded with satisfaction: "Good! Good!"

Suddenly, he saw the True Name Jade Disc frantically displaying Fame Points notifications.

[Ding, Chaos Fame Points +100,000]

Line after line of eye-catching, large-amount data popped up, surprising Su Yuan for a while. The target wasn't from Li Chun, but from the Chaos Li Chun was previously in.

When Su Yuan's will looked over.

He saw that at the place where Li Chun was just secluded in cultivation, a golden-armored man, who had appeared at some unknown time, was standing there with an ugly expression.

"Who? Who exactly? Actually kidnapped This Sovereign's subordinate?"

This golden-armored man's anger surged. He seemed to have used a time-space reversal ability but couldn't reverse the conversation between Li Chun and Su Yuan, so he was greatly infuriated. Finally, his gaze turned towards the Dao Palace treasury direction, seeing that line of text.

"Master Empty Void? Which Chaos Dominator? Actually stole my fruit! Damn it, this was a subordinate I carefully nurtured!"

He carefully searched his own Chaos but couldn't find any trace of that Chaos's arrival. This method made the golden-armored man calm down.

But the magnitude of the loss truly made the golden-armored man feel intense heartache.

In the end, his compensation was only a mere one hundred thousand Chaos Jades!

Frustrated, the golden-armored man directly transferred away the Chaos Jades in Li Shanchang's hands.

Li Shanchang was delightedly stroking the Chaos Jades, yet in the blink of an eye, the Chaos Jades in his hands were gone!

He looked in shock at the golden-armored man who had appeared out of thin air in front of him, trying hard to calm his mind as he asked, "Who are you?"

The golden-armored man glanced at him and said, "Your aptitude is too poor. Giving these Chaos Jades to you to use would be a waste!"

After saying this, he turned and disappeared.

Leaving Li Shanchang utterly bewildered for a time.

And after the golden-armored man left.

Su Yuan appeared out of thin air in front of Li Shanchang, chuckling as he said, "I am Master Empty Void. I think you are a talent. Through your own efforts, you've reached the second step of the quasi-Dominator realm. With proper cultivation, you might also have the possibility of breaking through to Chaos Dominator in the future."

"So it's Fellow Daoist Empty Void. Who was that just now?" Li Shanchang couldn't help but ask.

"That was the creator of this Chaos, hehe. Fellow Daoist Li, are you interested in changing Chaos for your development? I can take you away from this place. Following that hot-tempered one holds no future."
