"And this ability is most likely a poisonous or curse-related power."
"Moreover, after Cataclysmics reach the Third Order, their first ability will also receive a boost."
"Thus, it's very likely that a miraculous chemical reaction occurs, allowing her to curse all those who have 'stolen' her abilities or who are 'revenge targets' she resents."
"This directly caused the Cataclysmics of the Lin Family to suddenly all get injured. Although not seriously, it still beca the fuse for their defeat in such a decisive battle."
After listening to Qiu Tu's explanation, Zhao Ji pondered quietly for a mont, then slowly said, "It may not necessarily be the Third Order advancent through 'revenge.'"
"If her Cataclysm Path is truly 'revenge,' then being imprisoned would prevent her from obtaining power without 'revenge.'"
"It's most likely 'Cause and Effect.'"
"Cause and Effect?" Qiu Tu, having never heard of this, looked at Zhao Ji with curiosity.
Zhao Ji replied softly with a "Hmm," and then said, "A very rare phenonon."
"In general, it can only be triggered by Cataclysmics with extre spiritual 'purity of intent.'"
She explained, "As you know, the 'Boundless Heart Sea' is the Spirit World; the essence of Cataclysmic Power is actually spiritual strength."
"Therefore, when a person's spirit is pure to the extre, they may experience so miracles."
"For example... being favored by World Consciousness, 'obtaining power at a great cost upfront and then fulfilling the promise after gaining power.'
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu's eyes flickered slightly as he analyzed, "So you're saying... that Princess Xi was likely oppressed to the extre then, made a wish, and after advancing to the Third Order, sought revenge to fulfill the grand ambition of destroying the Lin Family?"
Zhao Ji nodded slightly, "More or less."
She stated, "This phenonon is rare but has occurred several tis. The simplest way to identify it is by observing whether her power continues to grow afterward."
"Because her revenge led to the extermination of the Lin Family, leaving corpses, turning land into a bare wasteland. Such a degree of 'revenge' surely not only paid the cost of her initial promise but also allowed her power to surge."
Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu nodded slightly and then said, "Back then, Princess Xi did indeed have strong power. According to Kou Xuan, she already had Fourth Order power when she joined King Kang's camp."
Quite possibly confirming his hypothesis, Zhao Ji nodded slightly and then impassively closed her eyes, preparing to resu her cultivation.
At that mont, Qiu Tu spoke again.
He said, "Besides, there are issues in the relationship between Princess Xi and King Kang."
Zhao Ji:....
Slowly opening her eyes, Zhao Ji shot sharp glances at Qiu Tu.
Qiu Tu coughed awkwardly twice and then said, "If you don't want to hear it, I can refrain from saying it."
Zhao Ji:....
Without directly addressing the issue, Zhao Ji coldly stared at Qiu Tu and said unemotionally, "Are you feeling... I'm becoming more tolerant of you lately, so you're starting not to take seriously?"
Hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu replied with a blank look, "I... never took you lightly in the first place."
Zhao Ji's breath stagnated, about to erupt.
However, she heard Qiu Tu say sincerely, "After all, I always placed Your Highness in my heart, respecting and admiring."
"Furthermore, it's not rely because Your Highness is more powerful than that I respect and admire."
"Initially, I didn't particularly like you. I thought you were just a pretty, powerful, knowledgeable Deity."
"But, after deep contact with you, I realized that whether it's appearance or inner-self, talent or power, character or will, you are at the world's pinnacle."
"Thus, I respect and admire you from the bottom of my heart."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji silently watched Qiu Tu, just watching.
Honestly, Qiu Tu thought he had figured out Zhao Ji's personality, but at that mont, he still felt a bit nervous.
What? Did the flattery fail? Did the strategy of temporarily suppressing praise backfire?
"Not world's pinnacle, but... the first," Zhao Ji finished, satisfied, then calmly closed her eyes, "Alright, continue."
Qiu Tu:.....
Damn. She even finds ti to show off?
Qiu Tu felt his learning journey would still be long and arduous.
While thinking this, Qiu Tu also refocused his thoughts, then continued, "Back then, after the 'Partridge Platform Incident' ended, the Lin Family was nearly exterminated, leaving only so elderly and infirm."
"The obliteration of the core led to almost no one knowing Princess Xi's secret, except... King Kang and the Queen."
This indeed puzzled Zhao Ji, who uttered a "Hmm?" and then asked, "Why?"
Qiu Tu reasoned, "Although the Queen's surna is Kou, she is Princess Xi's cousin."
"Her mother ca from the Lin Family, and her grandfather was one of the Lin Family's core mbers. When she returned with her mother to visit the Lin Family, she accidentally discovered this secret and inford King Kang." (Chapter 572)
Zhao Ji's face remained unchanged, but there was a hint of realization in her eyes.
Qiu Tu stated sternly, "King Kang, with ambition and imnse talent, of course, didn't wish to miss this 'strategic weapon' after learning Princess Xi's secret."
"That's why, after saving the Seventh Sanctuary, he instructed the Queen to interact more with Princess Xi, to gain her favor."
"Princess Xi suffered because of the Lin Family and naturally didn't want to remain there, so after finding warmth with the Queen, she gathered her courage and joined King Kang's camp."
