There wasn’t any suspense about Crofts’s ending. There was no room for redemption if he was court-martialed.

The military court was the highest authority in the Great Qian Empire’s forces and it couldn’t be trampled on.

It was impossible for anyone, not even someone from the Parkers family, to ignore the majesty of the military court and attempt to rescue Crofts.

Crofts’s career in the military was over. He would lose his position, rights, and maybe even his life.

The war had just ended. a.s.saulting and trying to kill a martial warrior who had made great contributions was a violation of the military code.

!!

Moreover, something like this couldn’t be kept under the sheets. Once it was made known, it would enrage countless martial warriors enlisted.

They fought against dark apparitions on the frontlines with their lives on the line. But now, they were getting attacked by their fellow humans. What was the logic behind this?

Although they weren’t the ones being attacked, they shared the same hatred.

Once a precedent was set, there would be many future occurrences like this one.

Given the circ.u.mstances, leaving Crofts unpunished would never defuse the anger felt by those in the military.

General Cameron and the others left, then w.a.n.g Teng got up and also left the hall. His expression was calm, so calm that Crofts found it hard to accept.

Shouldn’t w.a.n.g Teng be happy now that he had brought down a great enemy?

Why does he seem like he only did a small thing?

Crofts was unable to stomach such contempt. This only meant that w.a.n.g Teng didn’t take him seriously at all.

Being underestimated by someone he considered inferior was undoubtedly the biggest blow to a failure like him.

…

w.a.n.g Teng returned to his residence and was ready to get a good rest.

He would have been unable to hold on after repeated battles if it wasn’t for his ability to speed his recovery by picking up attribute bubbles.

However, his spirit was a little tired, even if his body could last.

He didn’t do anything. He took out a pile of delicacies to eat and slept after that. It wasn’t a long while before a soft snoring could be heard.

Round Ball appeared beside him and shook its head. There was a little concern in its eyes.

w.a.n.g Teng slept soundly this time; his body and mind were relaxed.

Waking up the following day, he felt that his entire body was cleared of any fatigue and felt extremely comfortable.

“Looks like you have to balance work and rest. It’s not good to push too hard.”

w.a.n.g Teng shook his head and smiled bitterly while he stretched his back.

“w.a.n.g Teng, you have a few messages.” Round Ball’s voice could be heard in w.a.n.g Teng’s mind.

“Let me see.” w.a.n.g Teng nodded.

There were three messages in total, the first being from General Cameron; it was a letter of appointment as the Tiger Strike Force’s commander. He was also informed to collect his military uniform from the logistics department within three days and to show up for his new post.

“Three days. There’s no rush then.”

w.a.n.g Teng took a look at the second message, which was from Peggy. She was asking how he was doing. Based on the words, it wasn’t difficult to see that she was a little… concerned about him.

After all, not everyone could stand such an intense battle.

“w.a.n.g Teng, looks like your adjutant is interested in you.” Round Ball snickered.

“I’m handsome. I’m loved wherever I go,” w.a.n.g Teng said shamelessly.

Round Ball was rendered speechless after having underestimated his unabashed nature.

w.a.n.g Teng hesitated for a bit, but still replied to Peggy with a short message.

In any case, she was concerned about him. He couldn’t just pretend he didn’t see anything.

On the other side—a pretty smile appeared on Peggy’s mouth as she received w.a.n.g Teng’s message.

She usually had a serious and cold appearance. The sudden appearance of a smile was quite breathtaking.

It was a pity that no one could see it.

Peggy didn’t reply to the message, simply closing her eyes and resuming her cultivation. She already felt the gap between her strength and w.a.n.g Teng’s. Catching up was basically impossible, but she still had to work hard to shorten the distance; otherwise, she might not even be able to see his back in the future.

The third message was from Di Qi who also asked about his condition.

w.a.n.g Teng replied casually, not bothering much about it.

At this time—probably due to the relaxed state of both body and mind—he felt that the inherited memory from the Devouring Nihility Beast had loosened up. Many memory pieces were naturally integrated into his mind and digested by him.

He then sat cross-legged on the bed and shut his eyes.

Time pa.s.sed little by little. His eyes opened about three hours later. A strange light flashed in his pupils.

“Buddha’s Sutra!

“Divine talent, World Devourer!”

He had a wide smile as he tapped into the newly acquired information. His heart overflowed with joy.

Buddha’s Sutra was a scripture!

A spirit scripture!

It was something that w.a.n.g Teng had always wanted. The Devouring Nihility Beast didn’t disappoint him in the slightest.

Moreover, the Buddha’s Sutra was not any ordinary spirit scripture. It was an extremely mysterious and ancient knowledge in the universe.

This scripture seemed to have existed since the beginning of the universe. No one knew its origins; only a few powerful martial warriors had obtained it, and with it leaving a great mark throughout the cosmos.

The most recent martial warrior was born 30,000 years before and reached the eternal stage. Then he disappeared without a trace.

However, the Buddha’s Sutra was well known.

The cultivation method would aim to strengthen one’s spirit and form a ‘Nine Treasures PaG.o.da’!

The use of the sutra would manifest the artifact. It was extremely recognizable.

The Nine Treasures PaG.o.da was actually a powerful means with both offense and defense capabilities.

Once formed, not only could w.a.n.g Teng use it to attack his opponent’s spirit, but his own spirit defense would also be greatly enhanced.

It would be difficult for any spirit attack to harm him in the future, unless it was too far from his current stage.

However, it wasn’t easy to cultivate the Buddha’s Sutra.

Many more martial warriors would have successfully practiced it, instead of just a few.

The spirit scripture was different from the ordinary kind, as it required an extraordinarily large amount of spiritual power to cultivate it. A vast amount of spirit was needed for a paG.o.da to form.

It was just like building a house. If there weren’t enough bricks, the house couldn’t be built to completion, and it would be useless. Likewise, if the spirit wasn’t enough, the Nine Treasures PaG.o.da wouldn’t be finished.

Fortunately, it wasn’t a problem for w.a.n.g Teng.

If his spiritual body wasn’t considered strong, then no one would be stronger than him.

It could even be said that his spirit was probably the strongest among the seniors who had obtained the Buddha’s Sutra in the past.

If word of this were to spread, people would probably think that w.a.n.g Teng was full of himself.

Those seniors were all at least at the eternal stage. Back when they had a celestial stage cultivation, were their spirits weaker than w.a.n.g Teng’s?

It was indeed so.

w.a.n.g Teng’s spirit stopped improving upon reaching the celestial stage. However, he kept acquiring more spirit attributes which strengthened his spiritual body.

Acc.u.mulating spirit like this was not something that could be compared to geniuses born with a strong spirit.

Besides, there were more challenges when cultivating the Buddha’s Sutra.

The pract.i.tioner would need to endure great pain during the cultivation process. The entire thing was like having your spiritual body bashed with thousands of hammers to purify it.

Even worse, this wasn’t just a one-time process; it lasted for a long time. If he gave up halfway, the Nine Treasures PaG.o.da would collapse, and all his previous efforts would go down the drain.

No one would even dare without having a strong willpower.

The more powerful a spirit scripture was, the more painful it was to cultivate it.

Considering the scripture’s power level, the pain would be a hundred times more than with ordinary spirit scriptures.

A wry smile appeared on w.a.n.g Teng’s face; there would be suffering in the future.

He didn’t cultivate immediately and went deep into procrastination.

It wasn’t because he was afraid of pain. It was because the Buddha’s Sutra wasn’t complete. The Devouring Nihility Beast’s memory only contained three levels of the scripture.

There were twelve levels in total, enough to reach the eternal stage. However, w.a.n.g Teng’s Buddha’s Sutra had parts missing, and he had found this out.

Still, he could advance to the universe stage with the first three levels!

w.a.n.g Teng didn’t know how many levels his seniors had obtained in the past. However, he was sure that none of them had the complete set.

The Buddha’s Sutra was too mysterious!

w.a.n.g Teng shook his head and thought for a moment before making a decision.

“Forget it. Let’s cultivate first. At least I can advance to the universe stage. I can just switch to something else if I can’t find the rest by then.”

Switching scriptures wasn’t an easy thing to do for others.

The Buddha’s Sutra was powerful, and its Nine Treasures PaG.o.da was naturally strong.

If he were to switch later, he would have to destroy the paG.o.da.

This would equate to self-harm for an ordinary person, as it was formed by their spirit.

Spiritual damage was extremely troublesome. If careless, there would be unimaginable consequences that would affect future cultivation.

It might even lead to the death of their soul.

However, w.a.n.g Teng wasn’t worried. He only needed to prepare large amounts of spirit attributes, which would be enough to mitigate the damage from destroying the Nine Treasures PaG.o.da.

He could also look for medicine that could nourish and repair his spirit. He was more than able to prepare himself for it.

Of course, those were things to worry for later.

Maybe he would have a chance to find the other parts of the Buddha’s Sutra.

w.a.n.g Teng felt that he had a lot of luck by his side.
