Zhang Yanhang's four main attributes, besides Intelligence, had all risen above seventy points now, and he just needed to gather enough Soul points to raise the Skill Level of the Limitless Universe Skill to ensure he would consolidate it into the Peak Third Tier within the day.

And even if he didn't consolidate, his current Attribute value at least qualified as a Late Third Tier, so he really didn't feel like clearing any Second Tier Areas anymore.

Chaotic Eye: "???"

Chaotic Eye: "What do you mean?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Nothing, just joking. I just mean I don't want to clear out the low-level areas like First Tier and Second Tier."

Chaotic Eye: "Well in that case, you'll just have to wait until tomorrow."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "If there's no Third Tier Transmission Channels left, are there any Fourth Tier Transmission Channels I can clear? I'm actually okay with tackling Fourth Tier Transmission Channels."

Chaotic Eye: "There are Fourth Tier ones, but are you sure you want to clear them? Do you really need to go that far just for Soul points?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "No problem."

Backed up by Fatian Xiangdi, Zhang Yanhang felt quite confident about taking on a Fourth Tier Region. After all, based on his past experience, not all monsters in a Fourth Tier Region would be Fourth Tier; there would surely be many low-level monsters, and only a few genuine Fourth Tier ones.

Chaotic Eye: "But the problem is, I don't want to fight Fourth Tier."

Zhou Muxi didn't know where Zhang Yanhang's confidence came from, but she really didn't feel up to doing such hefty tasks, especially since they were genuinely exhausting. Plus, she wasn't short on Soul points. If Soul points could be transferred, she would even consider giving some of her excess Soul points to Zhang Yanhang, since he probably wouldn't need many after just having advanced.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "What do you mean?"

Zhou Muxi's statement utterly confused Zhang Yanhang. What did clearing a Permanent Teleportation Channel have to do with her?

Chaotic Eye: "Do you know the way?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "No."

Chaotic Eye: "Can you set up barriers?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "No."

Chaotic Eye: "Well, there you go, if I don't go with you, who will? I feel like my life wouldn't be safe."

Although Zhou Muxi had felt that she couldn't beat Zhang Yanhang before his promotion, she still didn't quite trust that he could take on Fourth Tier Monsters immediately after his promotion.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "If you were scared, you should have said it earlier. I know a Fourth Tier Awakened. If I alert her in advance, she'll definitely come to support us with just one phone call, and she's also skilled in Space Ability, so the rescue would be faster than you could imagine."

Chaotic Eye: "Oh, then it's fine."

Although she said it was fine, Zhou Muxi still chose a Fourth Tier Transmission Channel for Zhang Yanhang to clear, where the strongest monster was only Fourth Tier One Star. She chose it because she was worried that in any other place, Zhang Yanhang wouldn't last a second, not even long enough to make a phone call before being insta-killed.

With her defensive power as the Chaotic Eye, at least she could buy Zhang Yanhang some time to call for help and avoid a total annihilation. Plus, if Zhang Yanhang's Fourth Tier Awakened friend proved unreliable, she could still call the relevant authorities for help.

Chaotic Eye: "But I still don't really want to go."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "How about this, the other night when I couldn't sleep and went out for a walk, I just happened to find a Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree that was twenty meters high and two meters in diameter, containing a large amount of pure Yin Qi and Yang Qi. If you agree to come with me, I can let you absorb from it for free."

Chaotic Eye: "?"

Chaotic Eye: "Are you saying one can just find such remarkably noticeable treasures while casually walking at night? How come I've never stumbled upon anything like that?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Maybe because it's dark at night, plus other people usually walk around looking at their phones, so they don't notice these things."

Chaotic Eye: "..."

Chaotic Eye: "Are you serious?"

Zhou Muxi had a strong intuition that Zhang Yanhang was bluffing her, but remembering his past deeds, it somehow seemed plausible that he could stumble upon a huge tree during a night walk, at least not entirely impossible.

Moreover, if Zhang Yanhang really intended to give her such a powerful Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, she probably had no real reason to refuse...

Chaotic Eye: "Wait a minute, why only let me absorb it for free instead of giving it to me? What good does that do?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Can we be reasonable, please? You already said it's a good thing. You'd just be accompanying me, not doing anything heavy, just standing by. And yet, you still expect to freeload a Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree from me? Are you serious?"

Chaotic Eye: "I don't care, I still want it."

Even though she hadn't seen the actual Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree, just from Zhang Yanhang's description, Zhou Muxi felt that this tree could save her two to three weeks of strenuous cultivation.

And with her effort over this period and the resources provided by the relevant authorities, she was just a few weeks away from promotion. If she could acquire this Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree, she might even manage to promote next week.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "..."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "If you really want it, at least offer something useful in return, because there's definitely no way I'm going to let you freeload."

Zhang Yanhang felt he was familiar with Zhou Muxi's body, but not to the extent that he would just give her the Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree for nothing.

Chaotic Eye: "Then what do you want?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "I've just been promoted, so if you have any Artifact that can enhance Attribute values, I could use one of those."

Chaotic Eye: "Artifact?"

Chaotic Eye: "By the way, I remember my best friend once got a Dark Purple Quality Item that could increase Charm attribute value by three points, but its usage requirement is below fifty points. Haven't you already reached forty points? Can you still use it?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "It's not a big problem. My Charm attribute value is all boosted by Equipment. Although I've reached fifty-nine points now, half of it comes from Equipment bonuses. I can use it normally once I remove the Equipment."

Chaotic Eye: "Half of it comes from Equipment bonuses?"

Zhou Muxi remembered that when she first met Zhang Yanhang, he didn't seem to exaggerate to this extent. Now it seems that during this period, he's made terrifying new progress and obtained numerous pieces of new Equipment. That's why he was able to push his Charm attribute, a Sub-attribute, straight to fifty-nine points right after he advanced to Third Tier at dawn.

Given such a high Sub-attribute, Zhou Muxi felt that Zhang Yanhang's Main Attribute must be even higher, probably above sixty points at least. She was now beginning to think that Zhang Yanhang might really have the strength to hunt Fourth Tier Monsters.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Well, I know that relying half on Equipment bonuses isn't healthy, and after all, Charm is only a Sub-attribute. Besides, I'm somewhat stuck now, without many Free Attribute Points to boost my Charm, so I've got to make do."

If there was a chance for Zhang Yanhang to turn back before, now that he could equip thirty rings with his Three-Headed Six-Armed Skill, there was absolutely no chance.

Chaotic Eye: "What are you talking about? I suspect you're doing a Versailles..."

Chaotic Eye: "So, you mean you can use that Dark Purple Quality Item normally, right?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Yes, but the problem is I feel one bottle isn't enough. You don't expect to exchange just one Dark Purple Quality Item for such a big Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree, do you?"

Chaotic Eye: "What about two bottles?"

Chaotic Eye: "Actually, my best friend initially got three bottles of that Charm enhancing Dark Purple Quality Item, but after drinking one, her Charm attribute value exceeded the limit. Since my Talent has no special requirements for Charm attribute value, there are still two bottles left. If you are willing to trade, I'll go ask her right now."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Two bottles... that's more like it."

Previously, Zhang Yanhang had exchanged with Zhou Muxi for a Dark Purple Quality Item, [Old Eight Secret Recipe Little Hamburger], using one First Tier Xuanyin Fruit and one Mutated Sunflower Seed.

Now considering such a large Yin Yang Mother-Child Tree, also one he had obtained after using up all his Energy Value, honestly, swapping it for two Dark Purple Quality Items was very reasonable and even slightly unfavorable. But considering that Zhou Muxi was willing to accompany him to clear the Fourth Tier Transmission Channel, he wasn't too concerned.

Chaotic Eye: "If that's the case, then it's settled. I'll submit the application now. The Fourth Tier Transmission Channel will open at 9:15 AM. Make sure you come to the related department to find me on time."

Chaotic Eye: "We'll exchange goods on the spot."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Why does it feel weird..."

Chaotic Eye: "Does it? I guess not. If there's nothing else, I'm going to find my bestie."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Okay, nothing else. Go ahead."

Chaotic Eye: "Can you really call it stealing among besties? It's more like taking! Boldly taking!"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "As long as you're happy."

After turning off his phone, Zhang Yanhang quietly lay on the bed, staring at the pristine white ceiling and pondering future matters. "I had initially thought finding a teleportation channel and fighting might be troublesome, but it turned out to be quite smooth, though I didn't find a Third Tier one, the Fourth Tier isn't bad at all.

If it's a Fourth Tier teleportation channel, the number of soul points I can get should also be more. Really nice."

He believed he found the teleportation channel so easily mainly because the relevant departments were short of manpower, a fact Zhou Muxi had mentioned to him many times, clearly indicating a true shortage.

Given that even directly governed cities with high administrative levels like Qin Island City were short of manpower, he could hardly imagine how dire the situation must be in the vast rural areas and county-level regions. No wonder Zhou Muxi told him that the military was also expanding significantly; it was indeed necessary.

Yet, Zhang Yanhang still had faith in the Empire and was also confident in the pace of his own strength improvements. Even if the Empire were to collapse, its rate of collapse couldn't catch up with his rate of becoming stronger. For this era where the strong prevailed in the Spiritual Qi Recovery Period, getting stronger was the best support he could provide to the Empire.

Zhang Yanhang checked the time on his phone and found it was already seven thirty. "Less than two hours until that Fourth Tier teleportation channel opens. So, the question is, what should I do in this one hour and forty-five minutes?"

Honestly, Zhang Yanhang couldn't think of anything he still needed to do since everything had already been resolved.

Of course, it wasn't like he had absolutely nothing to do—if he had more time, he actually had plenty to do, such as continuing to learn some useful spells or continuing to merge more thermo-baric bombs. The issue was, now he only had a little over an hour, which was not enough time for those tasks.

"Right, has the group admin not replied to me yet? It's been fifteen minutes already, and still no reply?"

Thinking it over, Zhang Yanhang decided to send another message to the group admin.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Are you there? Are you there?"

After sending the message, Zhang Yanhang turned off his phone again and calmly started waiting for the admin's response. However, merely waiting was quite boring, so he began to operate the Limitless Universe Skill to restore energy while waiting.

Since he had already nearly depleted his previous energy, it should replenish quite a bit in over an hour, but it would probably take at least five hours to fully recover.

But after cultivating continuously for an hour and having regained nearly a thousand energy points, when he opened his eyes again, he found that the group admin still hadn't replied to his message.

After briefly pondering again, he figured maybe the admin was overwhelmed with messages from too many people, which is why she missed his. Thus, Zhang Yanhang sent another message to the admin and included a flurry of window shakes to remind her that someone was 'anxiously' awaiting her response.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Are you there? Are you there? Are you there?"

Whether it was the window shakes he had just sent that indeed reminded the admin or not, just after sending the message, he noticed the group admin had actually responded to him, though the content was a bit odd.

Curse Binding Vajra: "Not here! Not here! Not here!"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "?"

But when Zhang Yanhang sent a puzzled question mark, he found that the group admin seemed unresponsive again.

Faced with this weird situation, Zhang Yanhang felt the admin might have some urgent matter to handle, so he waited a bit more. However, after waiting another five minutes, he still completely failed to receive a reply from the group admin.
