Chapter 536 - 536: Preparations To Break Through
Whew! He had managed to pull it off! Somehow, he had managed to get Patriarch Subhuti to teach him two top-grade divine powers!
This was truly beyond Wang Mang’s expectations.
The Dao could not be passed down easily. This was not just an empty statement, yet despite this, Patriarch Subhuti had still willingly taught him such valuable techniques!
“Wu Tian,” Patriarch Subhuti suddenly said softly, which jolted Wang Mang back to reality.
“Master.”
Patriarch Subhuti stared off into the distance, his hands clasped behind his back as he said indifferently, “You have to remember that you have to have a bottomline and not be too ruthless.”
“Don’t go overboard before you’re strong enough to defeat all of your enemies.”
“There are as many experts in this world as there are hairs on a person’s. Before you are strong enough, don’t make too many enemies for yourself.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang nodded respectfully. “Master, I will remember your teachings.”
Patriarch Subhuti smiled and nodded.
“Also, after you master those divine powers, you can leave at any time.”
“After 1 have taught that monkey to some extent, I will leave this world and travel the heavens.”
Wang Mang was stunned by this, and asked in astonishment, “Master, where are you going?”
Patriarch Subhuti sighed with emotion.
“I am following the path of Dao that belongs to me.”
Wang Mang then cautiously asked, “Master, what realm have you reached?”
Patriarch Subhuti remained silent for some time before muttering, “I’m just a step away from becoming a Saint!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang was extremely shocked. He had never thought that his master’s cultivation had already reached such a level.
Patriarch Subhuti turned to glance at Wang Mang and said indifferently, “What else do you want to ask me?”
“Master, is your identity related to the Two Sages of the West?”
Patriarch Bodhi shook his head.
“We don’t know each other very well. I’m on good terms with Zhen Yuan Zi, though. We’re both guests of the Purple Cloud Palace.”
“When you reach Tier 5, you will naturally come to know many secrets. Alright, you can go back now.”
With that, Patriarch Subhuti waved his hand, and Wang Mang respectfully left.
Of course, even though Patriarch Subhuti did not provide much information, Wang Mang still managed to confirm his speculation that his master was not related to the Two Sages of the West.
Furthermore, the fact that Patriarch Subhuti was a guest of the Purple Cloud Palace meant that he was most likely someone from the same era as the various big shots.
After Wang Mang left, he immediately returned to his cave abode, which was naturally on Mount Innerheart. This was the place he had been living in since he arrived here.
Now, he could not wait to break through. After all, he had not improved his strength for half a year, and had become very impatient.
“System, display my status information!”

Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction.
Now, he had 350,000 energy points, an Immortal-grade Gacha, and an Immortal Treasure Chest. He was confident that with the prizes he earned from these two rewards, he would be able to break through and reach the Immortal Emperor realm.
“System, open the Immortal Treasure Chest!”
[Ding! Congratulations! Immortal Treasure Chest successfully opened!]
[Ding! Congratulations! Obtained 150,000 immortal stones!]

[Ding! Evolution requirements met. Begin evolution?]
Whoa! Almost all of it was good stuff, which stunned Wang Mang.
This Immortal Treasure Chest was awesome!
However, he was also curious as to how many energy points he would obtain from consuming these heavenly treasures. Also, he was a little annoyed that he had only gotten half of the Yellow Immortal Plum and Ginseng Fruit.
As a dignified Type 4 expert, did the system expect him to eat the leftovers of others?
Alright then! So be it! He was not that picky!
As for the two trashy underwear prizes, he treated them as if they did not exist. That being said, if he encountered Zhu Bajie in this world, he would probably be able to trade Chang’e’s underwear for something good.
(T/N: Zhu Bajie is one of the characters that accompanies Tang Sanzang on his journey. Zhu Bajie is known for his propensity for gluttony, laziness and lust..)
