After leaving Little Mei and her mother in White Cloud Village, Ling Chen decided to go straight to the Sun G.o.d Palace in order to meet with the Sun Demi-G.o.d.

Now that his cover as the Wandering Monk was blown, there"s no need for him to go back and do the same thing again. His only objective now was to quickly meet with the Sun Demi-G.o.d.

However, he was forced to stop on the way due to some unexpected and inexplicable changes that were happening within his sea of consciousness.

At this moment, the sun was already sinking behind the horizon, draining away the light of day.

Within a large forest a few hundred miles away from the White Cloud Village, Ling Chen sat cross-legged with both of his eyes closed while Azure was standing not too far from him, guarding him.

"What the heck is going on?" Murmured Ling Chen with a puzzled expression on his face as he was looking at the giant G.o.dly dark tree within his sea of consciousness, more precisely the seven fruits hanging on the thickest and biggest branch of the dark tree.

Not too long ago, each one of these fruits was the size of a watermelon. However, now their size has doubled in just two days. That wasn"t all, they"re still growing by the seconds as if they were being fueled by an endless amount of good karmic energy.

He usually obtained this good karmic energy after saving lives and helping someone with his power which was in turn used to speed up the growth of the Seven Fruits Of Creation.

However, he hasn"t saved anyone for the past four days but somehow a huge amount of good karmic has been pouring into his body non-stop like a tidal wave.

He was sure that it wasn"t because he had absorbed the energy of the Thunder Demi-G.o.d Ye"s projection.

Ever since he"d reached the peak of the 9th Tribulation Martial Saint, he was unable to increase his strength by absorbing the life force and energy of others.

He had encountered a bottleneck and unless the Seven Golden Fruits within his sea of consciousness matured or ripen, it would be impossible for him to a breakthrough which was why he was trying his best to speed up the growth of the Seven Golden Fruits Of Creation within his sea of consciousness.

He had no idea why this huge amount of good karmic energy have been pouring into his body non-stop despite the fact that he didn"t save anyone. However one thing was certain, It all started after the news of what happened in Blue Dragon City had spread throughout the Sun Demi-G.o.d Domain as well as the rest of the Heaven Suppression Region like a wildfire.

"Don"t tell me a lot of people are grateful to me because I slaughtered everyone in the Long Family as well the projection of Thunder Demi-G.o.d Ye."Ling Chen said as he was looking at the Seven Golden Fruits that were still growing.

This was the only explanation he could come up with. Whether it was the Long Family or the people that were attending Long Bai"s party, they were all powerful existences that stood at the apex of the Sun Demi-G.o.d Domain.


Whether it was fame, riches, and power, they had it all. They had the power to decide the life and death of millions of people.

However, it"s nearly impossible for anyone to attain such power without resorting to some cruel and vicious methods.

How would someone who relied on his emotions and morality rule over and manage a powerful city such as the Blue Dragon City?

How would someone who relied on his emotions and morality develop and manage a powerful family such as the Long Family or any of the Nine Ancient Families?

This was a cruel world where the law of the jungle was absolute. In order to get stronger or achieve their goal, people have resorted to any method, no matter how vicious or cruel it was.

That was even more true for someone as powerful as Long Bai, Long Zheng and even Thunder Demi-G.o.d Ye who viewed people only as tools and stepping stones..… things like emotions or morality meant nothing to them at all

Even he himself has killed countless people and made many enemies on his path of getting stronger.

As such, it wasn"t that strange that many people became grateful to him after annihilating the Long Family including the guests at the party.

There were countless people like Little Mei and her mother whole fell victim to them and were unable to exact their revenge or get justice. However, even though it was unintentional, he was somehow able to get the grat.i.tude if the victims after annihilating the Long Family and the rest.

"Badump, badump, badump…"

Not only the faint heartbeat within the Seven Golden Fruits have become louder and stronger, but Ling Chen could even feel a strong life force coming from them.

If things kept on going that way, the Seven Golden Fruits of Creation would be matured in two days top.

"If I knew that I could gain good karma like that, I would have ma.s.sacred the Nine Ancient families a long time ago." Ling Chen coldly uttered as he withdrew himself within his sea of consciousness and opened his eyes.

He couldn"t believe he spent three years trying to obtain good merit while saving and curing people while he could have obtained the same result by killing a few wicked individuals.

At the same time, he didn"t really regret the time he spent helping people. He was able to meet all kinda people and learned many things on his journey. Not to mention, it was also because of that he was able to meet Little Mei and her mother.

"Is everything ok master?" Respectfully asked Azure as she saw Ling Chen suddenly opened his eyes after a few minutes of meditation.

She was also a little surprised when Ling Chen decided to take a break to meditate out of nowhere. She could clearly tell that Ling Chen wasn"t tired not injured. As such, she was a little confused with Ling Chen"s sudden action.

"I"m fine. I was just checking something." Ling Chen said as he was looking at the cold Azure with a slight smile on his face.

Even though she was a powerful demon beast, there wasn"t any savage or beastly aura around her. She looked no different than a young beautiful human girl.

"Alright, let"s go. We"ll stop for two or three days in the next town before continuing our journey to the Sun G.o.d Palace." Ling Chen added before they both disappeared within the forest like a ghost.
