Even a sage who has been suppressed can fight two opponents at once, so the Yu Emperor's strength is about the same after being suppressed, since the sage's strength is slightly stronger than the Yu Emperor's.
The entire prehistoric world didn't actually know Yi Shuihan's exact strength. They could only speculate based on the few battles he had fought, believing that he possessed the strength of a saint, but they didn't think he was particularly strong among saints. This misled the Yu Emperor of the technological world.
"Where is that Emperor Yu now?"
"On Kunlun Mountain."
"Kunlun? That's not the territory of the Three Pure Ones."
"He drove the Three Pure Ones out."
Nodding, Yi Shuihan asked again.
"And what is the attitude of that sage in the wizarding world? Has he not contacted you?"
“Sage Binglan asked me to convey his regards to the master, and to inform him after the master comes out of seclusion, that he will come to visit him in person.”
"Oh? This one from the wizarding world is quite friendly!"
The different attitudes of the two worlds immediately skewed Yi Shuihan's heart toward the wizarding world. Because of this bias, the technological world would lose many benefits that it shouldn't have lost.
Chapter 1203, Heaven-Defying Combat Power
In the Kunlun Mountains, a series of futuristic buildings stand tall, forming a steel fortress where numerous ships and even mechs can be seen taking off and landing.
"The art style has completely changed! It's gone from fantasy to science fiction."
When Yi Shuihan saw this scene, he was filled with emotion.
Beside Yi Shuihan, Kunpeng also looked curiously at this architectural style, which was completely different from that of the prehistoric world.
Yi Shuihan was still quite surprised that the technological world could openly establish a fortress here. Kunlun, as the territory of the Three Pure Ones, was considered a feng shui treasure land in the entire prehistoric world. If it weren't for the Three Pure Ones' high cultivation, high status, and strong backing, they wouldn't have had a chance at all.
After the Three Pure Ones were driven away, they should have sought help from Hongjun. Moreover, as a member of the Anti-Invasion Alliance, they could have called on the alliance to drive away the Yu Emperor of this technological world, instead of letting him build his base on Kunlun Mountain.
"Isn't there a mission on the Heavenly Merit Ranking to clear out this place? The reward for merit points is quite high, so why is no one coming?"
Filled with doubt, Yi Shuihan flew towards the fortress openly and honestly.
"Warning: Flying is not permitted in this area. Please land on foot or you will be considered an enemy and subjected to bombing."
As soon as the electronic sound rang out, Yi Shuihan felt himself being locked onto by numerous naval cannons.
"Is this an attempt to intimidate me?"
With a wicked smile playing on his lips, Yi Shuihan ignored the warnings and flew straight toward the direction he sensed Donghuang Taiyi was.
"Hey~"
"Boom~"
Laser beams, missiles, and even special bullets were unleashed at Yi Shuihan. These were not ordinary technological weapons; they would be useful even to a Great Luo Golden Immortal. In the ordinary world, they would be enough to easily destroy countless planets.
"Sir, is this the right thing to do?"
In a room resembling a room, there was a huge screen displaying footage of Yi Shuihan being attacked.
"What's wrong with that? We need to let him know how powerful our technological world is. Besides, haven't we already reminded him? He just doesn't want to follow our rules."
"What if this person gets angry and refuses to sell us the system?"
"Not selling? That's not up to him. My mech isn't just for show."
There were only two people in the room. One was Apache, whom Yi Shuihan had met before. Apache's aura was dozens of times stronger than when Yi Shuihan had seen it, and it was now a mecha pilot at the Cosmic Emperor level. The other was the Yu Emperor who had captured Donghuang Taiyi and stolen the system. This Yu Emperor sat on a huge golden chair, exuding an aura of dominance over everything, as if he didn't care about anything.
Yu Di's name is Tu Ba, a name that sounds arrogant, and his personality is just as arrogant and domineering as his name. Originally, the Qian Yuan Empire sent him to contact Yi Shuihan so that he could first show goodwill, but he took it upon himself to think that he should first suppress Yi Shuihan, and then force Yi Shuihan to call out the system, and give him some reward.
Tu Ba had a smile on his face as he watched Yi Shuihan being bombed on the screen, but the smile froze on his face the next moment.
"How dare he? He's asking for it!"
Tu Ba suddenly stood up, and due to excessive force, the chair he was sitting on was completely destroyed.
The screen had turned completely black, and in the final moments, it showed that the lasers and missiles that attacked Yi Shuihan had all flown back, completely destroying all the weapons in the fortress, and even the surveillance system was destroyed as a result.
Enraged, Tu Ba donned his mecha and charged towards Yi Shuihan, leaving Apache alone in the room.
"I have a bad feeling. We could have just communicated properly, but Lord Tu Ba insisted on provoking him."
......
"Hey, Taiichi, I've come to pick you up."
When they met Donghuang Taiyi, he looked quite disheveled. He was wearing prison clothes, his hair was messy, his face was bruised and swollen, and there was some blood at the corner of his mouth. This was something that people who had achieved a high level of cultivation rarely saw, especially since Taiyi was a quasi-saint. Such injuries could not be left behind at all, and with the physique of a quasi-saint, he would recover in a short time.
"Shop owner, is it really you?"
When Donghuang Taiyi saw Yi Shuihan, he didn't believe it at first. He rubbed his eyes hard before saying with a look of surprise, "It seems he has suffered a lot here."
"Was his cultivation sealed using a special method? No wonder he's like this; his aura is just like that of an ordinary person."
Looking at the collar around Donghuang Taiyi's neck, Yi Shuihan seemed to be deep in thought.
"It's me. Wait a moment, I'll get that thing off for you right away."
As he spoke, Yi Shuihan walked up to Donghuang Taiyi and reached out to touch the collar.
"It's no use, the seal cannot be broken without the correct method..."
Tu Ba arrived at the scene at this moment. He saw Yi Shuihan's actions and sneered. However, before he could finish speaking, there was a snap, and Yi Shuihan took off the collar. Tu Ba, who was in the mecha, stared wide-eyed.
Holy crap! Did they have to slap me in the face so fast? It was completely unexpected!
Did you just say something? Could you repeat it?
Yi Shuihan casually tossed the collar aside, turned around, and asked Tu Ba.
Just kidding, how could Yi Shuihan not be confident in taking action? Yes, it was the first time he had seen this kind of sealing lock, and it shouldn't have been possible to open it in such a short time. But Yi Shuihan has powerful backers, so he spent some contribution points to buy the method to remove the sealing lock and removed the collar in a matter of seconds.
Enraged, Tu Ba nearly lost his mind. He stopped talking and fired an energy cannon with tremendous power, reaching the level of a saint. He was trying to kill Yi Shuihan!
As for this kind of guy who starts fighting at the drop of a hat, Yi Shuihan said, "Come on then. If I can fight, I don't really want to talk!"
He instantly activated the state of the Lord of the World, unleashing a frenzy of battle power, and then merely released a wisp of his battle intent.
"Huh! That's it?"
Staring blankly at the now-defunct mecha, Yi Shuihan felt utterly incredulous. He hadn't even made a move yet! How could the difference in strength be so vast?
"Huh, it's the two of them too?"
Suddenly realizing that Kunpeng and Donghuang Taiyi had also collapsed to the ground, Yi Shuihan had a profound understanding of his own condition just now—it was simply defying the heavens.
Chapter 1204, Big Business in the Wizarding World
"This seems to have surpassed the realm of saints! Even when facing saints, Kunpeng and the other two can remain completely conscious, but I haven't even fully unleashed my power yet, and they've already fainted."
Yi Shuihan had some guesses about how easily Tu Ba, the Yu Emperor, could fall into a coma. Compared to the cultivation world, Tu Ba's physical body was much weaker at the same level. He only had such high output because of his mecha. The Yu Emperor was equivalent to a Saint, and his endurance was not much higher than that of a Quasi-Saint. It would be a stretch to say that he barely reached the endurance of a Saint.
"What to do now?"
Standing still, Yi Shuihan pondered.
What a perfect opportunity for showing off and getting slapped in the face ended before it even began. The opponent was really weak!
After this incident, Yi Shuihan's carefully cultivated emotions were almost completely gone, leaving him feeling listless.
"Forget it, let's get this over with quickly."
First, he awakened the unconscious Kunpeng and Donghuang Taiyi, and then he awakened Tu Ba, whose mecha had been absorbed into his body due to his unconsciousness.
Once Tu Ba regained consciousness, he looked at Yi Shuihan, who was right in front of him. His mind was still stuck on the moment when he attacked Yi Shuihan. However, he did not see the scene he had imagined, which left him somewhat bewildered.
"Hand over all the stolen systems, and then we can talk about compensation and future cooperation."
Upon hearing Yi Shuihan's words, Tu Ba's first reaction was that Yi Shuihan was joking. Just as he was about to say something sarcastic, he suddenly found a large hand in front of him.
It wasn't a slap in the face; Yi Shuihan simply placed his palm on Tu Ba's head, his eyes extremely indifferent, and spoke in an extremely detached tone.
"If you don't pay, you'll die; if you don't compensate, you'll also die."
Fear spread from the depths of his soul, and Tu Ba couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance. For some reason, he had a feeling that if he said no, he would really die.
This feeling came on in a very absurd way, but Tu Ba had no doubts at all. Under the threat of his life, he inexplicably took out all the systems in his storage space.
"It seems you have made your choice."
As soon as the hand was removed from Tu Ba's head, Tu Ba gasped for breath, looking as if he had escaped death.
"Taiyi, check if anything is missing."
"Okay, shopkeeper."
After a moment of surprise, Donghuang Taiyi hesitated before answering.
After a moment, Donghuang Taiyi nodded to Yi Shuihan, indicating that nothing had been missed.
This was also Tu Ba's luck. In fact, Tu Ba planned to send these systems back to his world in the next few days. If Yi Shuihan had been a few days later, he wouldn't have been able to see these systems, and what Tu Ba would have been faced with would have been something he didn't want to see.
"Next, let's talk about compensation..."
Ten minutes later, Yi Shuihan left Kunlun Mountain satisfied, leaving Tu Ba kneeling on the ground with a face full of regret, looking like a stray dog.
......
"Master, Sage Binglan has arrived."
No sooner had Yi Shuihan returned than people from the Wizarding World came to visit, and they arrived with extraordinary speed, clearly indicating that they had been keeping a close eye on Yi Shuihan's situation.
"Then let him come over!"
Having obtained sufficient benefits from Tu Ba, Yi Shuihan was in a fairly good mood. Moreover, since the Ice Mist Sage was quite sensible, Yi Shuihan naturally had no intention of taking advantage of him.
When Yi Shuihan met Binglan, he felt that she was younger than he had imagined. This youthfulness did not refer to her appearance, because anyone who has cultivated to a high level can change their appearance at will, and it is difficult to tell their age from the surface. Moreover, at Yi Shuihan's level, he would probably be considered young even if he were hundreds of thousands of years old.
The reason why Binglan is said to be young is because Yi Shuihan felt the youthful vitality emanating from Binglan. It can be seen that Binglan has an extremely youthful, positive, and ambitious mindset.
Binglan had short hair, a tall and straight figure, a resolute face, and a pair of bright, deep blue eyes. She looked more like a warrior than a wizard.
Upon seeing Yi Shuihan, Binglan smiled and made a peculiar gesture towards him, a wizard's salute from the wizarding world that signifies friendship.
"I am Binglan. You must be the owner of Taiyi Shop, right?"
Binglan's use of "shopkeeper" when addressing Yi Shuihan indicates that he values Yi Shuihan's identity as a seller of systems rather than his actual strength.
"I have long admired you. You faced two saints in the primordial world and did not lose. Unfortunately, I was in seclusion at the time and did not witness it with my own eyes."
"You flatter me. Actually, I only broke through my realm because of them. To be honest, I have been in the Sage realm for more than 100,000 years and am now in the middle stage of Sage."
“Strength is strength. Besides, your strength has been suppressed in this realm!”
The atmosphere between Yi Shuihan and Binglan was very pleasant. With their deliberate effort, they quickly became acquainted, and laughter filled the air.
Binglan and Yishuihan talked a lot about their experiences in the Wizarding World, basically sharing everything they knew. They even sincerely said that the Wizarding World didn't necessarily want to invade other worlds; it was just that the Wizarding World could no longer meet their needs for progress, which forced them to wage war. If the Primordial World were willing to coexist peacefully, the war could be avoided.
Yi Shuihan neither confirmed nor denied Binglan's words, stating that he was not from the Primordial World and that this matter should not be discussed with him.
Seeing this, Binglan stopped talking about the prehistoric world and directly brought up the system with Yi Shuihan. They wanted to buy a large number of systems and hoped that Yi Shuihan could give them some discounts.
"A lot, exactly how much?"
"This is the list of systems we need to buy."
Binglan took out a parchment, on which various systems were secretly written. There were basically hundreds of types and thousands of systems in total. Finally, she even suggested that if there were any systems that could cultivate sage wizards, she would also like two.
"This isn't something I'm buying to use; it's something I'm buying to examine and study!"
The reason for this conclusion is that the types are too varied, and many systems are too rubbish to be of much use in improving the strength of the wizarding world, unless they can use these systems to create their own corresponding systems.
If this deal could really be done, Yi Shuihan could earn millions of contribution points. After calculating, Yi Shuihan was instantly tempted.
Chapter 1205, War Against the Technological World
"Let me make this clear first: don't blame me if you guys mess up the system."
"Of course we won't blame the shop owner, don't worry, we'll take responsibility if it breaks."
Binglan said confidently, expressing his great trust in the research capabilities of wizards, because wizards grow through knowledge and solving problems is an essential skill for every wizard.
"To be honest, I do have wizards who can cultivate sages, but the success rate is only about 2%. Are you sure you want one?"
"really have?"
"real!"
"Then I'll take it."
A 2% success rate didn't scare Binglan at all. She thought that the chance of becoming a sage in the wizarding world was calculated as one in a billion. Let alone a 2% success rate, even a 1% success rate would be considered very high.
