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

“Oh? This secret!”

Su Yuan was astonished to discover that deep within the Cyan Lion’s will, there was a sealed compartment, hiding a secret.

The Cyan Lion roared in fury, but couldn’t stop Su Yuan’s probing.

Originally, once someone triggered this seal on the Cyan Lion, it would self-destruct instantly.

But with the space being one hundred percent isolated, even the triggering of this seal was somehow prevented under these circumstances.

As a result, Su Yuan managed to uncover this secret.

“I thought it was going to be something major!”

Su Yuan casually sealed the Cyan Lion and tossed it into the [Nine Stars Land], to serve as the main material for the purple will’s tempering pillar, letting the Cyan Lion continue to be of some use.

So-called secret meant that Nothingness Dominators advanced their realms by killing Chaos Dominators.

That was the only secret. What was so worth keeping under wraps by the Nothingness Dominators?

The answer was obvious.

“This means Chaos Dominators might actually be food raised by Nothingness Dominators, except one day, the food turned the tables!”

Su Yuan immediately thought of this point.

Long ago, he had wondered about the origin of Chaos Dominators — how did the first Chaos come into being?

And now, he suddenly had a new understanding.

That was the entire Nothingness World was initially the domain of Nothingness Dominators, because Nothingness and Nothingness Dominators were the most compatible pair. Nothingness Dominators probably had more than just this single path of killing Chaos Dominators to advance, but the Nothingness Dominators discovered this method of breakthrough was too slow, so they researched ways to cultivate Chaos and Chaos Dominators, then rapidly advanced their realms by killing Chaos Dominators!

This way, it all made sense!

Why were they called “Scavengers”? Because Chaos and Chaos Dominators might genuinely be something like a “deformed birth”!

Though saying this was very unkind, it was nonetheless a highly likely truth.

Nothingness Dominators were the original inhabitants, the first life forms, while Chaos Dominators were instead like a viral existence, a form of existence that violated Nothingness.

“Interesting!”

Su Yuan suddenly felt a bit amused.

“Could it be that this so-called Chaos Alliance, the supreme leader, is actually a Nothingness Dominator?”

Su Yuan thought about the reason for sealing memories — it was because the Chaos Alliance was actually established by Nothingness Dominators themselves!

To make it convenient for Nothingness Dominators to harvest their own leeks!

This so-called frontlines, this so-called resistance, was nothing more than a stage deliberately set up by Nothingness Dominators.

He suddenly thought of Taihao (now named Zhan Tian). He was previously a Seventy-Two Rank Chaos Dominator. Though he only reached the True Intent enlightenment level and hadn’t reached the cultivation realm, his essence should already be equivalent to that of a Seventy-Two Rank Chaos Dominator.

His Life-bound Chaos of Taihao, clearly located deep in the rear of the Chaos Alliance, was still found and killed by the Scavengers!

How did the Scavengers lock onto Taihao? How did they discover Taihao’s realm?

Clearly, Nothingness Dominators could likely monitor all Chaos in Nothingness, and detect the status of all Chaos Dominators, crossing Nothingness at any time to come harvest!

Su Yuan suddenly understood why he had used Nothingness Spiritual Plant to conceal his own Chaos earlier. That sense of crisis from the void had led him to take the most reasonable action. Perhaps this action itself was to evade the omnipresent Nothingness perception!

Nothingness Spiritual Plants were native plants of Nothingness, the same “native” lifeforms as Nothingness Dominators!

Terrifying!

This conclusion was so cruel and ruthless, revealing the pitiful situation of Chaos Dominators.

This secret was too big, too important, and too heavy.

Su Yuan suddenly felt a bone-chilling terror.

He immediately opened the Chaos Alliance token and searched through all kinds of information.

He quickly saw news about the Second Frontline’s Seventh Speaker defecting, along with news of many Artificers being killed.

No wonder the Third Speaker had granted permissions so readily, but that no longer mattered.

He checked more ancient information. With his suspicions in mind, reading those older messages and content, between the lines, from the slightest hints, Su Yuan vaguely found facts that corroborated this argument.

He couldn’t quite put the evidence into words, but it was completely enough for him to confirm things.

“What a screwed-up world!”

Su Yuan sighed deeply.

The truth was so brutal it was suffocating.

“What do I do?”

What use was it for a little guy like him, just at the sixtieth rank, to know this secret?

He didn’t even dare tell this secret to anyone, didn’t dare tell the Third Speaker Xie Tingfeng — not afraid he wouldn’t believe it, but afraid he would.

No matter how he reacted, it would attract the attention of Nothingness Dominators, and eventually, tracing the clues, they would find their way to Su Yuan.

“That bastard should just die!”

As this thought flickered through Su Yuan’s mind, he completely killed the Cyan Lion. No need to make use of the waste — it was too dangerous.

Su Yuan forced himself to calm down, then began thinking about countermeasures.

“I need to figure out the true strength of the Nothingness Dominators. If I don’t even know what the enemy is really like, how can I talk about defeating them? What the Chaos Alliance currently understands is definitely not enough!”

The [Mental Echo] trait had to be put to good use, and the Chaos Trait level was no longer sufficient. He needed to find a way to upgrade it to a Dominator-level trait.

Additionally, he needed to find out how many Nothingness Dominators were in the Chaos Alliance, especially at the highest levels.

Was the leader of the Chaos Alliance part of the Nothingness Dominator faction? Was he directly a Nothingness Dominator, or a Chaos Dominator who had defected to them?

Anyway, Su Yuan felt this position of leader wasn’t easy to hold.

“No wonder the Chaos Alliance’s frontlines were so strange.”

Su Yuan also thought about the Chaos Alliance’s frontlines. The farther in you went, the higher the level — the Second Frontline was actually within the perimeter of the Third Frontline.

This shape was just too convenient for the Nothingness Dominators to “feed.” This was a giant dining table! Chaos Dominators from every corner of Nothingness automatically gathered to this table, automatically enhanced their own “deliciousness” level, then sent themselves to the core position for the Nothingness Dominators to enjoy!

If explained from this angle, everything became reasonable.

“Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!”

“Toxic! Truly toxic!”

“I’m jumping straight into a fire pit!”

“I can’t go to the First Frontline! Absolutely can’t go! The Second Frontline is barely tolerable, but I can’t keep being as flashy as I am now!”

“I thought I could finally be a bit more prominent, but only now do I realize I’m still in an oversized pigpen. Pigs that are too noticeable get killed!”

Su Yuan fell into a long silence.

Su Lian, standing nearby, looked at Su Yuan in confusion, not understanding why her father suddenly became so gloomy. Hadn’t he just defeated the enemy?
