Chen Changan taught Foxy Tai Chi again and finished by breathing out heavily.

 

“Foxy, how is it now?”

 

She imitated his style as she breathed out heavily at the end, her eyes flashing with excitement.

 

“Ya, yi, ya, yi!”

 

I.e. “Master’s Tai Chi is amazing, mystical, and formidable.”

 

Rubbing her head, Chen Changan smiled.

 

“Cultivate hard, you hear? Don’t spend all your day eating, playing, and sleeping.”

 

Foxy bobbed her head and went to practice Tai Chi by herself.

 

Her way of saying, “Master, I’ll do my best.”

 

Chen Changan returned to the grilling table and placed a piece of tenderloin on it.

 

The meat sizzled enchantingly.

 

As Foxy trained, her ears twitched and her eyes kept wandering to his barbecue. It didn’t look like she was working hard at all.

 

Chen Changan sighed. “Fine, you can stop. Train after you fill your stomach.”

 

He waved at her.

 

Foxy beamed and giggled as she skipped over.

 

“Ya, yi, ya, yi…”

 

I.e. “Master’s the best. I love you to death.”

 

Chen Changan rolled his eyes.

 

As he worked the meat, he focused on the Trial Tower.

 

The disciples thinned out as time went on.

 

He watched Mo Wentian.

 

With the one-eyed Immortal Emperor’s help, he activated the Dragon Spine.

 

The spine turned into a Dragon and made him soar, bringing with it a full release of his potential.

 

Mo Wentian cut down those abominations with ease.

 

It helped him breeze through the floors too, closing in on Bai Yue, Qin Xiuwen, and Qinq Yunfei.

 

Since their initial burst of speed slowed down the higher they went. The danger mounted with every passed floor.

 

He reckoned Mo Wentian would catch up to them by the eighteenth floor.

 

“Brother Mo sure is something.”

 

Chen Changan smiled.

 

He could understand him.

 

Since entering the Trial Tower, he’d undergone fundamental changes.

 

All thanks to that soul inside him.

 

Nothing escaped his eyes in the Absolute Domain, and certainly no one-eyed soul loafing in Mo Wentian’s mind.

 

Not like Chen Changan cared about the Immortal Emperor.

 

Mo Wentian’s opportunity lay with this immortal’s soul.

 

So long he didn’t break the rules and use some Immortal Equipment, anything went.

 

In the end, it was part of Mo Wentian’s strength.

 

Chen Changan had no intention of putting a stop to it.

 

He was actually eager for the geniuses and him to meet up.

 

Chen Changan was awfully curious about what kind of sparks would fly when Nine Province Continent’s cultivators clashed with those geniuses.

 

At least his Domain Points kept going up and up every minute on the hour.

 

Not just from Absolute Domain visitors, but mainly from advancing cultivators.

 

“I was right to enact the Ascension Program.”

 

It did its job in tapping into the Nine Province Continent’s desire to become stronger and cultivate hard, in the Absolute Domain, of course.

 

The promise of only a hundred lucky few would bring even more of them to his Domain.

 

In no time at all, the news of his program spread throughout Ghost Province.

 

Endless streams of cultivators flooded Myriad Mountains and his Absolute Domain.

 

Chen Changan felt more satisfied than ever.

 

“Now how am I going to get them to ascend?”

 

He had no concrete idea to go on, though lost no sleep over it.

 

With Absolute Domain around, and the expansive Immortal Land at his fingertips, helping a paltry hundred folk ascend was practically a done deal.

 

Touba Ye in particular. He didn’t ascend and already had the body of an immortal.

 

Wasn’t that just a byroad to get there?

 

Chen Changan busied himself with the grill.

 

“The vast Immortal Land and its inexhaustible Immortal Energy worked wonders on these natives, reshaping their bodies. The longer they stay, the more Immortal Energy they absorb.”

 

[Yep, ascending shouldn’t be an issue.]

 

[I could also just wait for Mei Niang and Bai Yue to talk it out with them.]

 

Chen Changan used Domain Points as he thought, to expand his Absolute Domain.

 

He yearned for the day it covered the whole of Myriad Mountains and complete the upgrade requirement.

 

“Bao’er has been gone for a while now. I wonder if Wu Ming brought her to get the sword immortal inheritance.

 

“And what of Mei Niang and the Dao Rhythm items auction? How many top immortal stones will I get?”

 

Chen Changan had been a model of deadbeatness recently.

 

He used Sacred Rhythm Integration to make Dao Rhythm items for when Mei Niang returned for another round of auctioning and to bring back more immortal stones.

 

Everything was to expand the Absolute Domain and get this deadbeat to thrive.

 

In the next three days after Chen Changan announced the Ascension Program, every corner of Nine Province Continent became aware of his intentions.

 

And as he expected, it took the people by storm as the cultivators flocked to Myriad Mountains.

 

In these short three days, cultivators flooded the area in the hundreds of thousands.

 

As they passed the invisible border of the Absolute Domain, none noticed the subtle reaping and revival going behind the scenes with Chen Changan’s nifty Ruler of Life and Death.

 

The harvest filled his pockets of Domain Points.

 

After dumping it all on expansion, the Absolute Domain was eighty percent done in covering the Myriad Mountains.

 

A little more and he’d achieve his goal.

 

It all went so fast that it blew his mind, making him somewhat touched by his own genius.
