Chapter 308 Xue Feng’s Request
Xue Feng nervously looked at his father. After Yan Jin ran away from home and changed his surname, he didn’t know how his father would treat his younger brother.
Yes, he did not know. For the past few years, apart from cultivating and guarding Calm Sea Pa.s.s, his father had almost zero interest in anything else. He treated all his children equally, almost ignoring them completely! He couldn’t be bothered with his children when they tried to please him. Yan Jin had already run away from home and changed his surname, but King Calm Sea still couldn’t be bothered with him. King Calm Sea favored Xue Feng a little because he was much more outstanding than his other siblings. However, he only favored him a little.
According to what Xue Feng had heard, when the demons invaded Eastcalm City, King Calm Sea’s Heavenly Tribulation Sword appeared and saved Eastcalm City. According to Xue Feng’s judgment, the fact his father had left a sword mark on his younger brother—which ended up saving him-meant that he wasn’t heartless.
“It’s very suitable for your seventh brother,” said King Calm Sea before returning to look at the forming world that stood in the distance.
“Thank you, Dad. I’ll take my leave.” Xue Feng was overjoyed. He bowed respectfully and obediently retreated.
King Calm Sea watched the forming world before immersing himself in his cultivation.
Meng Chuan watched the purple lightning brandish and flail its claws as it tore through the endless darkness. The purple lightning’s stunning beauty attracted him. He also practiced his saber art over and over again.
His Essence Soul realm was very high. He had long obtained a fourth-level Essence Soul. He was in no way inferior to King Calm Sea and the other Regis G.o.dfiends. However, he improved slowly in regards to his technique realm. Meng Chuan also knew his shortcomings, so he worked harder in this aspect of cultivation.
I hope that I can reach the Dharma Domain realm when I attain a fifth-level Essence Soul. That way, I’ll be able to cultivate my body to the Blood Droplet realm. My body will be stronger than Greater Demon Monarch Black Wind’s, and my electromagnetic domain will have a larger range. I’ll probably be able to kill more than 1,000 demon monarchs per day when I conduct underground reconnaissance with my improved scouting range. I’ll be able to turn the tides of this war single-handedly.
He alone could affect the war’s outcome. How incredible was it for a single person to kill more demon monarchs than all the other G.o.dfiends in the world combined? However, that was how the world of cultivation was. The strength of an individual surpa.s.sed the ma.s.ses!
A human Imperial Lord could end the war completely by themselves. An expert with an eighth-level Essence Soul could also end the war.
Meng Chuan knew very well that his technique realm improvement speed was very slow. He had a slim chance of reaching the Creation realm in his lifetime. Even if he really broke through, he would probably be around 400 to 500 years old. As for an eight-level Essence Soul? He currently had a fourth-level Essence Soul. He was still very far away from attaining an eighth-level Essence Soul. It was still questionable whether he could achieve these two goals.
Therefore, his most important goal was to reach the Blood Droplet realm.
At the Blood Droplet realm, his body would be stronger than that of Greater Demon Monarch Black Wind. His vitality would be even more terrifying.
For example, King True Martial’s Yin-Yang disc spun seven times before killing Black Wind. If it were a Blood Droplet realm expert, he would be able to recover from the injuries inflicted by the Yin-Yang disc instantly. He might not even suffer any damage. Combined with his speed as a Lightning Devastator Fiend Body Regis G.o.dfiend, Meng Chuan would be a nightmare for the demons in the future.
I have to strengthen myself as quickly as possible. I only have Greater Mastery of Saber Dao. I need to reach the peak of Saber Dao first. Meng Chuan patiently cultivated his saber arts. Suddenly sensing something, Meng Chuan stopped cultivating his saber arts and turned to look.
Xue Feng walked over. “Senior Brother Meng.”
“Junior Brother Xue, what’s the matter?” asked Meng Chuan.
“There’s something I need your help with,” said Xue Feng.
“Pray tell.” Meng Chuan was curious.
Xue Feng took out a wooden box from his storage bag. He opened the wooden box, revealing the mysterious ice lotus flower inside. Flames flickered at the ice lotus flower’s pistil. Xue Feng said, “Senior Brother Meng, I request you to help me hand this ice lotus flower over to my seventh brother, Yan Jin.”
“Hand it to Yan Jin?” Meng Chuan smiled. “You can give it to him directly.”
“My seventh brother hates the Xue family,” Xue Feng explained softly, “Although his att.i.tude towards me is slightly better, he will be unwilling to accept a valuable treasure from me. With his temper, he will never accept treasures from the Xue family.”
“Oh.” Meng Chuan nodded slightly. He knew that Yan Jin was hostile towards the Xue family. Even though Xue Feng tried to please his younger brother time and time again, Yan Jin remained relatively cold towards him.
“When you hand it to him, tell him it was from you. Don’t say that it was from me,” Xue Feng said. “You’re his best friend, having known him from your teenage days. He also recognizes you as his best friend and will accept it if you give it to him. He won’t accept it if it’s from me.”
Meng Chuan looked at the ice lotus flower. This was one of the dozen treasures in the streaks of starlight. It was an item produced during the formation of a world. The ice and fire powers of the ice lotus flower came from the same source. It was indeed extremely profound. From Meng Chuan’s point of view, it was probably worth tens of millions or even 100 million credits.
“Sorry to trouble you, Senior Brother Meng. I will definitely remember your help.” Xue Feng looked at Meng Chuan expectantly.
Meng Chuan had mixed feelings. At the very least, as an elder brother, Xue Feng treated his younger brother very well.
Meng Chuan nodded. “Alright, I’ll help you pa.s.s it to him.”
“Please tell him it was from you, Senior Brother Meng,” exhorted Xue Feng again, “Don’t mention my name at all. Otherwise, it will all be for naught.”
“Don’t worry.” Meng Chuan nodded and reached out to take the box. He then smiled and said, “As an elder brother, you’re really worried about Yan Jin.”
“The Xue family owes him too much,” said Xue Feng helplessly. “I won’t disturb your cultivation any longer, Senior Brother Meng.”
Meng Chuan stored the box into his Grotto-Heaven Magic Bead and watched Xue Feng leave.
Xue Feng has the best temper in the Xue family. Yan Jin is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. As for King Calm Sea… Meng Chuan frowned slightly. He couldn’t forget the scenes he saw in the s.p.a.cetime Floating Ice. The white-haired Meng Chuan and King Calm Sea were clearly enemies and not friends.
In the future, I might become enemies with King Calm Sea? Archean Mountain G.o.dfiends should be united against the demons. Why would I become enemies with him?
After seeing the scenes, Meng Chuan naturally became wary of King Calm Sea. Following that, he didn’t think too much of it and continued cultivating.
Days pa.s.sed. In the blink of an eye, more than two months had pa.s.sed since Meng Chuan and company arrived at the World Gap.
Boom!
Yan Chitong stood in the same spot. The spear in his hand transformed into thousands of spear shadows as he thrust out. Each spear shadow burned with flames. The attack was so sharp that it caused the void to distort. The flames blotted out a few kilometers of the sky. It was terrifying.
“Oh?” Meng Chuan, Xue Feng, King True Martial, and King Calm Sea turned to look.
A breakthrough? Meng Chuan was surprised. He had often watched Yan Chitong cultivate over the past two months, so he was very familiar with Yan Chitong’s spearmans.h.i.+p. He probably had Greater Mastery of Spear Dao. However, the might of the spear attack he had just executed was clearly much greater than before. It was much more exquisite.
Yan Chitong was also delighted.
“You cultivate the Two World Divine Body, but your spear arts are beginning to follow the Extreme Fire lineage?” asked King True Martial.
Yan Chitong immediately said, “Yes. After all these years, I’ve realized that cultivating both fire and water is not very suitable for me. However, I’ve been hesitating all this while. When I came to the World Gap and saw the forming world, I realized that the Extreme Fire lineage would provide me a similarly bright future. I decided to follow the Extreme Fire lineage completely! I immediately felt much more comfortable cultivating. I’ve just broken through to the peak of the Realm of Dao.
“Haha, that’s right. The path created by Grandsire Yin Yang isn’t necessarily the most perfect.” King True Martial laughed. “What’s most important is that it suits you. It seems that you have already found your own path.”
