Chapter 1477 - 881: Emperor Wa Manufacturing

"You?"

Fa Liuyuan looked at Zhang Yu, who had a serious expression in front of him. Instead of immediately dismissing him, he asked, "Do you have the confidence to accomplish the Divine Light Ten Changes and breakthrough to the Refining Void in the coming time?"

Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "I should be able to."

Having stood tall in Kunxu for many years, Fa Liuyuan had seen generation after generation of geniuses in the sect after becoming a cultivator of the Ascension Realm.

Confronted with Zhang Yu’s confidence, he didn’t question it, but instead asked very practically, "Even if you complete the Divine Light Ten Changes in the upcoming time and break through to the Void Refinement Realm, do you have the confidence to compete against those cultivators who have been at the Peak of Void Refining for years, preparing for many years?"

Zhang Yu said, "Heavenly Monarch, I know there’s a gap between myself and them. Even if I break through to the Void Refinement Realm, there may still be a huge gap, but I want to give it a try."

Fa Liuyuan advised, "Next year is the establishment of the first batch of Third Generation Laws, which is indeed a great opportunity, but it also represents more intense competition. With your current cultivation, participating might not be to your advantage."

After some thought, Fa Liuyuan candidly revealed more of the inside story, continuing, "Don’t participate this time, the sect has already decided to fully support Tai Yue Bai first. Once he’s successful, we’ll fully support you next time."

In Fa Liuyuan’s view, Tai Yue Bai and Zhang Yu... represented two different generations of cultivators.

Since the first batch of Third Generation Laws began operating early, the new generation like Zhang Yu wasn’t fully prepared. Therefore, allowing the older generation like Tai Yue Bai to go first and having them respectively participate in the founding of the previous and subsequent Law Chains was also a normal arrangement of power.

Fa Liuyuan patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder and said, "The importance of Legislation is related to your future limits and path. Don’t act on impulse."

Zhang Yu replied, "Heavenly Monarch, I’m not acting on impulse."

He explained, "The Third Generation Laws are a completely new domain. As you said earlier, the earlier one participates in Legislation, the broader the jurisdictional scope one might encompass. Missing the chance to establish the first batch of Third Generation Laws means it would be gone forever."

"Therefore, Heavenly Monarch, such a rare opportunity, I don’t want to forgo without even trying."

In Zhang Yu’s mind, the Blank Law granted to him by the Immortal Emperor surged forth. He knew that the earlier he participated in drafting the legislation, the more he could leverage the power of this Blank Law.

Taking part in the establishment of the first batch of Third Generation Laws would allow this unprecedented Blank Law to be pushed to the maximum potential.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "If Fa Liuyuan and the others really disagree... perhaps I can only consider revealing the fact that the Immortal Emperor secretly granted me the Blank Law."

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhang Yu looked at Fa Liuyuan and said, "Heavenly Monarch, precisely because legislation affects my future limit on the Immortal Path, to climb to the Peak of Immortal Dao, how can I pass on this unique opportunity?"

Sensing the intense fighting spirit in Zhang Yu’s eyes, a hint of realization suddenly dawned in Fa Liuyuan’s heart, "Indeed, if Zhang Yu didn’t have a firm heart towards the Dao, he probably wouldn’t have climbed to this position either."

"Under the Heart towards Immortal Dao, if Zhang Yu felt he had no chance, he should directly give up, reduce losses, and accumulate strength for a future opportunity in legislation."

"But conversely, if he knows the road ahead is perilous but still has absolute confidence in himself? Then what happens? Under the cumulative impact of Heart towards Immortal Dao... perhaps he won’t give up?"

"So, does Zhang Yu have such confidence?"

At the same time, before Fa Liuyuan’s eyes appeared all of Zhang Yu’s past experiences and data: there was the Foundation Establishment exam, the first military certification, the shift from civil engineering to Artifact Refining, the Top Ten League, university wars, and various data from the Lower Realm Sect examination.

"Zhang Yu, who climbed from one tier to another, has completed one seemingly impossible challenge after another. Amidst countless skeptical gazes, he repeatedly triumphed over opponents, continuously proving himself, and seized numerous opportunities, bringing him to where he stands before us now."

"Therefore, everywhere he goes, almost always climbing from the very bottom, he possesses the confidence and stress tolerance that most sect geniuses lack."

Realizing this, a hint of realization flashed in Fa Liuyuan’s heart, "So... we somewhat underestimated Zhang Yu, treating him as one of those traditional geniuses of the past."

"He’s not ordinary, not just a cultivator advancing diligently under the influence of Heart towards Immortal Dao."

"He has extremely strong confidence and courage, firmly determined to reach the Immortal Dao Peak, believing that he can challenge the Immortal Dao Peak, and can even restrain the short-term temptations of infinite salary increase under Heart towards Immortal Dao."

"Such an extraordinary talent, faced with hardship naturally won’t think of avoiding it to reduce losses, but rather seize the opportunity to maximize profits."

"This is not impulsive, but his past victories shaped his indomitable bravery and confidence, nurtured his steadfast Dao Heart, leading to his choice at this moment."

Fa Liuyuan thought to himself, "Under such circumstances, forcibly suppressing him and telling him to settle down might actually lead to adverse results."

With a series of thoughts flashing through his mind like lightning, Fa Liuyuan already nodded slightly, saying, "I understand, we indeed somewhat overlooked your personal pursuit of the Immortal Dao Peak."

Hearing this, Zhang Yu felt a slight sense of relief in his heart.

Fu Ji listened and chuckled, saying, "See, I told you there’s no problem doing it this way, right? As long as we show our determination, he’ll understand! Under the Heart towards Immortal Dao, with the courage and confidence you’re showing, Zhang Yu, the Reform Faction damn well should let you fight for it!"
