‘Dad, I’m only one step away from completing my Divine Power. Could you lend me a hand?’
‘Not bad, it seems you’ve really put in the effort lately. Without such a solid foundation, refining Heaven’s Will wouldn’t be easy. It’s just a bit too aggressive. If you had prepared for another month, you could’ve succeeded in refining Heaven’s Will without needing me to intervene.’
‘Heh, don’t worry about that, I’ll call out before I get hit.’ Ji Shan sneered coldly, he didn’t look like a fool; how could he possibly wait to get hit before calling for help? It was obvious he would call out before that happened.
‘Just make sure you get the timing right, so you don’t end up shouting “Dad, save me” when someone actually lands a blow.’ Qin Muye teased.
‘Stop with the wisecracks and hurry up. The Divine Power should be almost finished anyway. Let’s talk after you’ve completed it.’ Qin Muye quickly withdrew his gaze from Ji Shan and returned to the Underworld.
...
‘You being shameless is somewhat like me… I’m very pleased with that. A lack of shame can help you live longer, as they say “Good men don’t live long, but a scourge lasts for a thousand years.”‘
‘Your efficiency is a bit beyond my expectations.’ Qin Muye was somewhat surprised. He had thought it would take at least another month to reach the level of refining Heaven’s Will, but it seems he had underestimated Ji Shan’s cultivation Talent.
‘I thought I had learned the essence of your ways, but it turns out it’s only a third of your Attribute. It seems the gap between you and me is quite outrageous.’ Ji Shan was surprised, and then fell silent. Indeed, the older ginger is the spicier.

‘I’m not like you; you like stability, but I prefer seizing the opportunity,’ Ji Shan said.
“Indeed, my dad will always be my dad…” Ji Shan sighed, truly deserving of comparison to Divine Skills that could reverse life and death like the ‘Mystical Lord Seven Chapter Secret Scroll’.
“Nine Tripods Divine Power, huh? Using Heaven’s Will as a material, indeed a remarkable Divine Skill.”
“Heaven’s Will, Child of Destiny as the guide, with the Nine Tripods capable of evolving various Qi Mechanisms, truly a profound method.”
“A large number of Yin Walkers dying? What kind of major news is that.” Ji Shan glanced at the information, muttered disdainfully, and then casually tossed it aside.
“The final step, just need to let the Nine Tripods connect and refine Heaven’s Will, and this Nine Tripods Divine Power will be complete.” Ji Shan knew, this was the most difficult part.

If he really found himself in such a situation, Ji Shan would definitely call out “Dad, save me” without hesitation rather than trying to tough it out.
But with the final hook connection, the Nine Tripods Divine Power was successfully completed, and he also gained a brand new Talent.
Lucky for him that he could communicate and consult with Qin Muye in time; otherwise, just learning by himself and practicing alone, he wouldn’t have been able to complete it without three to five years.
Afterwards, his focus naturally returned to the nine splendidly shining tripods within his body.
Indeed, one shouldn’t compare oneself with others, the gap between geniuses and ordinary people is unimaginable.
Soon, Ji Shan began to refine Heaven’s Will, making it his own Divine Skill.
The entire process of refining Heaven’s Will went very smoothly for Ji Shan. Even though Heaven’s Will resisted, Ji Shan suppressed it. If Heaven’s Will hadn’t resisted, that would have been abnormal.
Ji Shan knew that Qin Muye had left.
Just as he treats the Spirit Monsters as his own extensions, he values them greatly.
But Ji Shan is different, his cultivation is orthodox, so he needs enough challenges, otherwise, his future achievements will not be great.
Unfortunately, it’s already too late to start now, just like the frog in slowly boiling water that doesn’t realize it’s getting hot until it’s too late to escape.
Too bad he only dares to think about this idea, because if he doesn’t work hard, someone will make sure he does.
Now, going through experiences seems irrelevant. Better to study and research more, gain more experimental results to enhance oneself, and naturally the power will soar, maybe even achieving breakthroughs in leaps and bounds.
As for those protagonists who catch up to heaven-sent geniuses, aside from sufficient Resources, naturally, they also have the matching personality and mentality. Otherwise, do you really think they’d succeed acting like idiots without the Main Character Aura? They would have been killed long ago.
Some time ago, he had already received news that the ‘Mystical Lord Seven Chapter Secret Scroll’ was completed, and he was also diligently cultivating the Nine Tripods Divine Power. It was no small project; not to mention the learning time, just the installation and setup required a lot of procedures.
Qin Muye did not interfere; he just watched quietly from a distance. He was there to provide support, not to assist.
Qin Muye may have the identity of Ji Wuming, but Ji Shan is different. He’s not of this world at all and could be described as an unregistered resident, yet Heaven’s Will still took a fancy to him at first sight. It just goes to show there’s usually no good ending for those who are swayed by appearances; now he has lost both people and wealth.
The frog isn’t dead yet; if he makes a move, it will resist, and the danger lies within the process of this resistance.
Now that the shadow of the Nine Tripods has formed, it has completely become a blockade. With Qin Muye watching, it would be wishful thinking for the other party to even try to escape.
It could even result in various miraculous effects and powerful Divine Skills.
It may be called the Heavenly Destiny Mother Qi, but it’s truly the ancestor of myriad Qi Mechanisms. With the Nine Tripods, he can create all sorts of peculiar Qi Mechanisms for his cultivation, and thus, the path of a Qi Refiner will have no restraints.
Although he has no idea what kind of Underworld maneuvers his old man is up to, it’s definitely not a small move.
Even though Ji Shan’s temperament is quite similar to Qin Muye’s, it’s just that — similar, not identical. Ji Shan has his own way of dealing with the world, instead of merely copying Qin Muye’s Principles of survival.
So those protagonists with poor Attributes may be able to catch up with the chosen ones more because they rely on Resources rather than real Talent and cultivation, or else if you can catch up with the chosen ones despite having worse innate Attribute and Talent, then who is the true chosen one — you or them?
He doesn’t need those Experiences because Qin Muye’s increase in power belongs to a type of transformative mutation.
He could indeed protect Ji Shan, his adopted son, for a lifetime, but Ji Shan can’t become a delicate flower in a greenhouse; he must at least be capable of standing on his own. Otherwise, if he were to die one day, what would become of Ji Shan?
He could also feel the agitation in his own body as the Heaven’s Will was being drawn out by the Nine Tripods. Clearly, Heaven’s Will had not anticipated Ji Shan taking such an unconventional route, discovering it and even trying to Refine it away.
He’s not one of those orphan-born Children of Destiny. His dad is a boss, his grandpa a bigger boss, and his great-grandpa even stronger. Even his uncles are of considerable stature. Naturally, he wouldn’t be stingy in utilizing his family’s advantages.
He knows Qin Muye is in the Underworld, so nothing that happens there surprises him.
Heaven’s Will, of course, is not to be outdone and struggles madly, trying to break free from the suppression of the Nine Tripods.
After eighteen years of living together, Qin Muye genuinely regards Ji Shan as his son, not merely as a tool to break the game.
Compared to others, Qin Muye’s transformative mutation is a force that can break all laws. It’s simple — if he can beat it, he beats it; if he can’t, he loses.
For someone like Qin Muye, who doesn’t care about public opinion, appearances, looks, or such, his only flaws are perhaps being petty and liking to argue. Oh, and flipping the table when he can’t win the argument.
Someone like Ji Shan, he is truly a chosen one.
If not for the heavy burden he carries to act as a mascot to break through the impasse, he would love to be a prodigal second-generation; after all, with such a vast family backing him, slacking and waiting for Death would be no problem at all.
If Ji Shan fails to suppress Heaven’s Will and lets it escape, Qin Muye will step in to capture it. However, if Ji Shan and Heaven’s Will are equally matched in their struggle, Qin Muye will not intervene.
The potential danger comes when Refining, as he may encounter backlash from Heaven’s Will.
Luckily, this Heaven’s Will has no self-awareness, only instinctual reactions; otherwise, it might have already started throwing insults by now.
From the beginning, Heaven’s Will was blinded by the Child of Destiny’s Talent; otherwise, it wouldn’t have ended up with such a foolish move.
Thus, the necessary trials and hardships absolutely cannot be skipped.
Within the Primordial Spirit, nine great tripods are evenly distributed at various parts.
In terms of education, Qin Muye has a high standard. With his Learning Ability to study educational methods, he is more than capable of guiding Ji Shan onto a bright path.
Over the years, he has seen too much and knows Qin Muye’s temperament well.
This Divine Power compensates for the problems in his external environment.
At such times, Ji Shan naturally wouldn’t just take it lying down — with family as his support, he would certainly call for backup.
Previously, it was like boiling a frog in warm water, mostly avoiding direct clashes with Heaven’s Will. But now that the frog has been boiled, you can’t just eat it directly, right? At the very least, you’ve got to gut it and remove the innards. That’s where the danger lies.
Attributes are one thing, but character and mindset are quite another.
