TDG Fanfic: The Golden Throne - Chapter 57

Danny told his new special unit to meet him near the Commoners Union the next day, before leaving to go to sleep. Nie Li was currently distraught, as it seemed the timing of his reincarnation prevented Ye Mo’s disciple from dying.

He didn’t know if this was a good thing or a bad thing. He was also chosen as the leader of the special unit. Although it was in his favor because he can help his friends, it also provided the “hero” with ways to embarrass him. The worst part about this was that this guy was Ziyun’s beloved brother. Sadly it seems that this big bro seems to treat Ziyun genuinely. This made it harder on Nie Li to attack him and make him public enemy.

The only good thing about this is that he won’t be expelled. Also he has a backer from the start. Tomorrow after they finish the briefing he will go to the Union and see what he can get with the credits.

Ziyun was on the side playing with blacky while Xiao Ning left right after getting acquainted with the team. The cold beauty bȧrėly talked and just listened to the rest of the team introduce themselves. Du Zhe and his group were excited at getting picked to join Danny. Their futures are set and they might even get to join the rumored expedition. This expedition was said to be searching for survivors and finding suitable places to build strongholds.

The day passed peacefully unlike the original timeline. Soon the sun was high in the sky and many people were walking about. The busiest place that was crowded with all sorts of people was the Union. Many adventurers were walking in and out of the Union. Whether it was restocking or submitting missions they were everywhere. Many commoners were also here trying to solve petty issues or improve their daily lives.

The market place was full, many students of general schools were on their way to school. The most shocking thing to Nie Li, was most people had cultivation and even to the point where seeing gold level cultivators was common. He was surprised to see that the change to the world with Danny was beneficial. He decided to make a decision to improve his team and glory city as a whole.

Nie li made it to the entrance of the Union and flashed them a badge he got from Danny. The workers there brought him to a manager of the contribution hall, who then led him to a room. Once he entered he noticed Ziyun and the others talking to each other. Seeing Nie Li enter, Du Zhe said,” Nie Lie as the leader of our group you should come earlier. Hero Danny picked you for a reason. So try to come before the prerequisite time.”

Ye Ziyun annoyed that Nie Li came late humped before she continued speaking,” Everyone the first thing we should do is measure test our soul realm color and test our elemental attributes. My bro said that he made a new tester orb that also measures ice, metal, sun and moon energies. So other than the 5 main elements (wood, earth, fire, water, wind) and lightning we can see if we have affinities to the new elements.

In this way we can choose a more accurate cultivation skill that suites our needs.”

Although Nie Li was the leader, Ye Ziyun felt that he didn’t deserve it since he was late. She decided she won’t show him any respect. Nie li on the other hand was shocked by what he heard so he asked,” Don’t we only check the color of the soul realm? When did we check elemental affinities?”

She answered a little annoyed as he didn’t even know this,” Listen here Nie Li I hope you can take the position my bro gave you a bit seriously. My bro said that he doesn’t believe red soul realms are the weakest soul realms. He said that as long as one has a soul realm they can cultivate regardless of the color. He believes that in ancient times the was a system to read soul realms that was lost. Since couldn’t figure out how to identify the so called ‘soul form’. He decided to work towards this slowly so he decided the easiest thing he can do is determine elemental attributes. Even this needs some work as he need to try and comprehend different elemental energies to be able to add them to the elemental identifying orb.”

Nie Li was shocked by this persons thought process he was definitely a genius of his time. Even with limited resources he was able to lead glory city to new heights compared to his time. “This person is truely a genius, so what is the use of our contribution points and how can we earn more.”

Hearing Nie Li praise Danny made everyone in the room more friendly, as they all looked up to Danny. Even the new character Linly softened his gaze. He always stayed silent and speaks only when spoken to. Ziyun began to explain to Nie Li that with the points they can get materials, weapons, skills, and beast souls. They also can test their strengths and comprehension. The best part is that if they have enough point then a legend rank expert from the union can train them for a week. He also found out that a contribution point can get members one soul orb to measure their soul realms. A soul orb was a refined soul crystal that was made by the union’s refiners departments.

This explanation made Nie Li see that contribution points were worth more than crystal coins. He also found out that by contributing knowledge, money, and items from runes you can get equivalent value in contribution points. The contribution points to the Union was different than Advenpoints of the adventurers department. Only members of the union (commoners + recruited nobles from the prodanny faction or neutral faction) have access to contribution points.

Danny already made preparations for them. He handed to Ziyun yesterday seven soul orbs one for each of them. When she took them out she also took out 6 high grade spatial rings that can hold a house full of stuff. Everyone was excited to receive these rings and they immediately bound them by blood. Then they began to test their soul realm and other than Nie Li, Wie Nan, and Zhange Ming were red. Zhu Xiangjun and Linly were orange soul realm. Xiao Ning was Green while Ziyun was Blue.

Before Nie Li could speak, Ziyun began to explain,” My bro said that the difference between realms is the speed at which they ȧssimilate the world energy into soul force. Although my speed and Xiao Ning are the fastest, as long as you receive a suitable Art then you won’t be left behind provided you work hard.”

After she finished speaking this further made Nie Li feel Danny was a true genius. His findings are really shocking in this dark age. Danny began to speak,” I recently found a book in my families archives that had many detailed cultivation arts. Although my cultivation is low I spent most of my time reading how to read soul realms and soul forms.” Then he asked Du Zhe for his crystal and like the original series he gave him the heavenly Quilin Art due to his lightning fire attributes and the heavenly thunder cloud soul form. Nie li explained his understanding of soul form, which caused Ziyun to show interest in him.

He then proceeded to give the Zhang Ming, Wie Nan, and Zhu Xiangjun suitable skills. He gave Zhang Ming Radiant Lion Art due to his lion Soul form and Fire and light attributes. Wie Nan was given Dark Sun manual due to his darkness attribute and the Common Rising Sun soul form. This also answered Wie Nan’s question as to why he was attribute less.

Zhu had a different soul form than the common ones from before. He surprisingly had the uncommon three headed Hydra with Negative water attribute (yin). Elements in the world are usually neutral but sometimes they can be found as yin or yang (negative or positive). Nie Li gave him the Nether Snake Spiritual Art.

One he finished writing down the entire art for Zhu Xiangjun Danny walks into the room. “Everyone line up and let me test your physiques.” Without greeting anyone he made everyone line up and began to scan their physiques. He scan the guys and told Linly to get a certain prescription to aid his malnutrition. Compared to normal people Linly was like Danny in that he need a large amount of energy or else he will weaken and eventually die. Then he scanned Ziyun who was slightly blushing. He comment,”little sis why are you blushing we use to shower with each other.” This made Nie Li almost have a heart attack and made Xiao Ning jealous. Ziyun blushed and stood to the side glareing at Danny from time to time.

Although she was shy, Xiao Ning didn’t mind her crush to check her out. After the scan Danny asked about her cultivation skill and if she felt any discomfort. After obtaining all the info from Xiao Ning. Danny “deduced” her issue and told her that she should stop cultivating this art and change it to a new one.

He also told her to should find some one who knew the daoyun technique and massage the infected area. He also prescribed the exact medicine Nie Li gave her in the original series. This made Xiao Ning fall even more for him. She was but a simple kind hearted girl that was forced to seal herself from the outside world. Although she was known as a cold beauty, she was forced into this situation by her family.

Danny then came into her life by beating up her fiance from the Sacred Family. Then he advanced glory city to new heights without asking anything in return. This was the person she decided to pursue. At the very least she wanted to stand by his side.

Danny “found out” that Nie Li new the technique and had him teach it to Ye Ziyun. Hell no will he let some reincarnated little brat touch his woman. This made Nie Li speechless but happy at the thought of spending time with Ziyun. (Remember nie Li when he came back didn’t care for Ning as a partner. He was an all Ziyun party)

He also advised them which arts and skills they should choose. He also listed the best weapons they can get with their current points. Once he finished he left as he had things to do. He didn’t even wait for Ziyun to tell him that Nie Li had a stash of overpowered skills.

Nie Li who was shocked by Danny’s analysis began to continue to check Ziyun and Xiao Ning soul orbs. He gave Ziyun the Nine life Ice Phoenix art and Xiao Ning the Wind lightning Winged dragon art. (Too lazy to check actual names due to exams.)

After that everyone made preparations using contribution points to buy martial skills and beast souls. They also picked the weapons they felt most comfortable with. Once preparations were done they scheduled a time to train together, so that they can pass the ȧssessment in three months.

After everyone went their separate ways, Nie Li boldly asked Ye Ziyun to walk her home. She thought for a moment and agreed. On the way to the Snow wind estate Ziyun asked,” Hey Nie Li can you do me a big favor. My brother although strong reached the peak of legend rank through his physique. My poor bro couldn’t find a good cultivation art. If he doesn’t have a good Art then his life span would end leaving glory city early. Can you please check his soul realm and give him suitable art.”

Looking at Ziyun, that had a cute pleasing expression. Nie Li felt that he couldn’t refuse. Then he recalled Danny and felt angry that he had to help that evil bas..hmm evil brother. Danny’s plan worked out without him needing to do anything. Nie Li responded with a low voice, ” sure Ziyun I’ll help.”

“Really!”

“Yes! thanks leader, your the best, I’ll go tell my big bro you can help him.” Ziyun said cheerfully you and ran at full speed to her home leaving Nie Li in her dust.

“Dam that evil big bro, I couldn’t even enjoy a walk with Ziyun.” He then walked back towards his dorm room.
