Deep within the left eye, a brilliant light slowly emerged, like the brightest star in the night sky, yet containing the power of destruction. Sёarch* The nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
As the light gradually coalesced, Su Jie's perspective suddenly changed.
The world seemed to transform into interwoven filaments, and he became an Immortal Demon overlooking everything, able to rewrite the space with a gentle flick of those threads.
This was merely a psychological sensation; his cultivation was still far from achieving immortality.
Su Jie gained some insight and muttered to himself, "The Heavenly Eye ability's communication with the Tao River has further amplified; this is the power of enlightenment."
With a gentle blink, the Spiritual Power from his left eye touched those filaments, and at that moment, the Tao River opened.
Like a giant Heavenly Eye gazing at the mortal world, the force of the Tao River was invoked, and an indescribable heavenly pressure surged, splitting the Blood Sea into halves, and a deep ravine appeared on the ground.
If not for Su Jie's timely control and the multiple formations in the area, the nearby buildings would have collapsed.
If in the past, Su Jie's Primordial Spirit Heavenly Eye barely opened a ten-centimeter gap in the Tao River to harness its power against enemies, now the gap widened to a meter.
Of course, this was on Blue Star, where the Tao River is weaker, unlike in the Tianyuan World, which offers less amplification.
As Su Jie dispersed the power in his left eye, a stream of blood tears flowed from the corner of his eye, making it swell and ache.
"Indeed, it's still too forced, but at least I've found the trick; next is the painstaking effort."
However, Su Jie showed no pain; instead, his face was full of smiles.
Because Su Jie discovered the key to breaking through to the Taoist Platform Realm.
Su Jie had already reached the Secret Realm Fifth Level; his five internal organs were cultivated to perfection, reaching the peak of the Secret Realm.
But he had not found a way to break through to the Taoist Platform Realm until his recent attempt enlightened him on the path he needed to take.
The seven levels of the Taoist Platform Realm correspond to the seven orifices of the human body.
Su Jie first opened the eye orifice in his left eye, and the Heavenly Eye was a manifestation of this eye orifice.
To break through to the Taoist Platform Realm, he needed not only the reverse baptism of the seven orifices by the Five Internal Organs Essence Qi but also the synchronized baptism of the Primordial Spirit's eye orifice with the breath of the Tao River.
The cultivated five internal organs from the Secret Realm baptize the seven orifices, and the breath of the Tao River baptizes the Primordial Spirit's seven orifices, both receiving baptism, combining to form the heavenly path of the Taoist Platform Realm.
"Blue Star's Tao River environment is more gentle, suitable for my cultivation."
Su Jie was in good spirits; compared to the terrifying Tao River in the Tianyuan World, the Tao River on Blue Star was gentler and easier for Su Jie to adapt, allowing him to ascend to the Taoist Platform Realm sooner.
Originally, Su Jie planned to push forward and further consolidate, completing the refinement of the left eye's eye orifice sooner.
But just then, the external formation was touched, and Su Jie scanned it with his Divine Sense, discovering it was Liu Yingying who had come.
Cultivation was not urgent, and Su Jie got up, put away the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus, and left the Underground Poisonous Insects Base.
.....
In the car returning to Jieke Group Company, Liu Yingying was reporting the recent situation to Su Jie.
"....that's how it is, three aircraft carriers from the Beautiful Country have completed their rendezvous near the Indian Ocean, while two others are stationed in the Australia region, latitude and longitude coordinates are..."
Liu Yingying conveyed the events slowly to Su Jie, focusing on the Beautiful Country's military moves.
As for why Jieke Group knew so clearly, it was because there were satellites from Jieke Group monitoring overhead of the aircraft carrier battle group.
Scout satellites tracking aircraft carriers were not as people imagined, endlessly searching the vast oceans and continuously searching the sea surface.
Instead, satellites started real-time monitoring the moment the carrier left port, with spy satellites relaying to keep track of the fleet's movements.
Jieke Group's Kunpeng Rocket was still launching satellites into the sky, although recently the frequency had declined because the number of Jieke Group's in-orbit satellites was already sufficient, with more than twenty thousand satellites.
Most of these were small and micro satellites, but there were also many large satellites for espionage and military purposes.
The large number of satellites allowed Jieke Group to arrange calmly, with spy satellites monitoring every military port of the Beautiful Country at all times.
The Beautiful Country was well aware of this because they were doing the same to Jieke Group.
It was just that the Devourer-class Deep-diving Cruiser can dive underwater; once submerged in the ocean, satellites can't track them.
This was the reason the Beautiful Country feared Jieke Group so much; even their powerful aircraft carrier fleet dared not easily enter Mengjia Bay.
"Su Jie, do you think the Beautiful Country can't hold back and wants to start a war with us?"
Liu Yingying asked Su Jie while holding a file.
The Beautiful Country's grand mobilization inevitably made Liu Yingying nervous; after all, the Beautiful Country had been the Blue Star Dominator for nearly a hundred years since World War II.
"I don't think so; if they wanted to start a war with us, their mobilization would be even larger, and they wouldn't let our satellites keep watching their aircraft carriers overhead; they have anti-satellite weapons available, or at least they could learn from us, using satellites for suicidal collisions."
Su Jie shook his head and explained: "I think the Beautiful Country is putting on a show for us, knowing our satellites are watching their carrier battle group and still mobilizing troops on a large scale, proving they don't want to start a war with us, at least not at this time. Their actions aim to scare us into backing down, voluntarily conceding and shrinking our expansion, hoping to leverage it for gains."
"Is the Beautiful Country really that cautious?"
Hearing Su Jie's analysis, Liu Yingying instinctively blurted out.
Su Jie pinched Liu Yingying's cheek, saying with amusement, "You think the Beautiful Country is brave? It's just your prejudice and misconception. Tell me, when has the Beautiful Country been the first to rush into a major war?
During World War I, they watched from North America, joining only when victory was near to gather benefits.
In World War II, if it weren't for Japan bombing Pearl Harbor, the Beautiful Country would also have joined late to pick up the spoils.
After World War II, every time they fought a war, they only entered judged to have a high chance of success, and they liked to gang up on small countries and weak nations or support forces to conduct proxy wars, reaping the benefits from behind.
The Beautiful Country seldom took the lead to tackle tough battles; it's a characteristic rooted in their Angsa pirate nature of bullying the weak."
"It seems that's indeed the case."
Liu Yingying blinked her eyes and found that things might indeed be as Su Jie described.
The Beautiful Country, as the world's policeman, frequently bullied small and weak nations, leaving the impression of being overbearing, yet in reality, they were the most cunning ones.
"That's why the Beautiful Country is very calculating, allowing us to take bolder actions."
While Su Jie spoke, the car arrived at the Jieke Group Headquarters Building.
Just after getting out of the car, a beautiful journalist who had been waiting there brightened her eyes, holding a microphone with Bolt-like frequency, rushing over.
"Mr. Su, Mr. Su, may I ask your opinion regarding Luzon and Jawa countries rejecting Dragon Coin for circulation and settlement?"
Even if this agile beauty ran at Bolt's speed, she couldn't breach the genetic warrior guards' blockade, stopped outside.
Su Jie looked at the beautiful journalist, and in a good mood, he answered the question.
"The rise of Dragon Coin requires support from other countries, especially Southeast Asian countries, to achieve more positive currency diplomacy in its promotion and to establish a global partner economic network.
Any Southeast Asian country trying to reject Dragon Coin, raising some so-called 'Dragon Coin' threat argument due to geopolitical reasons, is merely trying to stop the inevitable.
The promotion and circulation of Dragon Coin will never halt because of opposition from one or two countries.
On the contrary, if one continues to obstruct Dragon Coin, perhaps it's time for you to recall the deep-seated fears you have.
Su Jie spoke a meaningful sentence and then walked into the Jieke Group Headquarters Building under the journalist's excited gaze.
The beautiful journalist was very excited, sensing hot news; it was exclusive news!
Because just now, Su Jie's words carried a single underlying meaning, almost pointing out Luzon and Jawa countries by name.
Is there no respect if you dare not accept my currency?
The beautiful journalist looked through her camera's photos where she captured Su Jie with a cold smile and dangerous eyes.
She already decided to use this photo with a "Death Glare" headline tomorrow; the news was sure to explode in popularity.
