Chapter 2134: Dejected An Lin
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
An Lin only had a fifth of his life force remaining.
If he used his hack again, he would genuinely have to pay with his life.
He definitely couldn’t allow this to happen. After all, he still had to marry Xu Xiaolan and have children with her!
“I’m already very powerful now,” An Lin murmured to himself as he sensed the power inside his body. “Even among the G.o.d of Creation Stage divine beings, I can still be regarded as a top-notch being. I can pummel the G.o.d of Creation Stage divine beings from the Realm of Stars, and I can also fight on equal terms with the G.o.d of Creation Stage divine beings from the Tai Chu Continent…”
His strength was already among the most powerful of the Tai Chu Continent.
However, he felt that this still wasn’t enough. Before Supreme Heavenly G.o.ds, such power was only enough to exchange a life for a life. Moreover, the strength possessed by the Heavenly Earth G.o.d wasn’t representative of the strength possessed by the other Supreme Heavenly G.o.ds. At the very least, he knew that the Heavenly Light G.o.ddess was more powerful than the Heavenly Earth G.o.d.. Regarding how much more powerful, he wasn’t too sure…
To put things in simpler terms, he still faced the risk of dying!
If he wanted to protect his friends; if he wanted to protect Xiaolan… He had to become more powerful!
An Lin’s expression gradually became resolute.
He decided to continue using the system. He looked toward the cultivation base tab.
That was right, he was planning to become more powerful! In fact, it would be best if he could advance to the G.o.d of Creation Stage. That way, he wouldn’t need to be afraid even if he were attacked by several Supreme Heavenly G.o.ds!
Right now, the cultivation base tab was covered in a layer of white mist.
An Lin had examined this tab several times, yet to no avail. This was also why he had been at a loss regarding how to raise his cultivation base.
Now, however, he had a method to disperse this white mist.
After perfecting his Divine Dao of Darkness, he discovered that he could actually touch the system in his mind directly. In other words, he could engulf the white mist that was enveloping the cultivation base tab!
“Hehehe… It looks like the system isn’t all-powerful either. Since you want to hide the cultivation base tab, allow me to use my darkness to strip you of your protection! Hehehe…” An Lin chuckled giddily as he spoke.
He used his darkness to slowly engulf the white mist.
The cultivation base tab finally appeared before his eyes.
An Lin’s giddy smile froze onto his face.
“Dao Integration Intermediate Stage—Condition: Host is already a mature cultivator. You should learn how to cultivate by yourself.”
This condition was like a cacophony of demonic sounds, and it became the only sentence that remained reverberating in An Lin’s mind.
Host is already a mature cultivator. You should learn how to cultivate by yourself.
Host is already a mature cultivator. You should learn how to cultivate by yourself.
Host is already a mature cultivator. You should learn how to cultivate by yourself.
…
Already a mature cultivator? Learn to cultivate by myself?
There were tears in An Lin’s eyes.
You led me so far astray on this path of cultivation, yet you’re just going to toss me aside and ignore me now? Are you this irresponsible? You want me to cultivate by myself? How the f*ck should I cultivate?!
“Sister System, although you always screw me over, I know deep down that you actually love and care for me. Don’t leave me, okay? Let’s continue to happily cultivate together, okay?” An Lin continued to beg the system.
However, there was absolutely no response from the system. It was as if it were dead.
“Do you agree or not?
“If you agree, then please say something.
“If you don’t agree, please still say something…
“I beg you, please don’t ignore me…”
…
“Ptui! Rubbish system!
“Trash system!”
An Lin’s eyes were bloodshot as he angrily cursed the system.
“Brother An Lin, why are you crying?” Sun Wukong asked as he scratched his bald head.
“No, I’m not crying. I’m practicing a water-element cultivation technique,” An Lin said through sobs. He hurriedly wiped the tears from his face.
Sun Wukong was stunned as he looked at An Lin, and he exclaimed, “Don’t treat me like an idiot monkey!”
“Don’t bother me, you shrew monkey!” An Lin glared at Sun Wukong, and he raised his hand as if he were about to pick a fight with him.
Sun Wukong shuddered in fright. He then hurriedly transformed into a cloud of azure mist as he fled into the distance.
Gazing at the emptiness before him, An Lin was no longer able to hold in his tears.
Sh*t! This irresponsible system! What am I going to do now?
Like an abandoned man, An Lin was beside himself with dejection.
No wonder the system had covered the cultivation base tab using a white mist. Initially, An Lin had thought that this was in order to maintain an air of mysteriousness. Now, however, he had discovered the true reason. As it turned out, even the system realized that this condition was inhumane?
His voice transmission talisman suddenly lit up.
“h.e.l.lo…” An Lin said indifferently.
“An Lin, what… what’s wrong?” A gentle and pleasant voice traveled out from his voice transmission talisman. This was a beautiful and heavenly voice.
Ordinary people would tremble in emotion if they heard this voice.
In fact, this was the voice of Nuwa.
However, An Lin was still as despondent as before. “I’m fine. Is there anything you need?”
“I’ve got something to tell you.” Upon mentioning this, Nuwa paid no attention to An Lin’s mood anymore. Instead, she said excitedly, “We’ve advanced one step further in our efforts to mend the heavens. The mending of the dao power is already four-fifths complete. Once this dao power is fully mended, we can then rapidly carry out the final two steps and successfully mend the heavens!”
“M-hm… Congratulations…” An Lin felt a slight pain in his chest, and he said, “I’m already the Third Heavenly Disciple of the Heaven Crus.h.i.+ng Sect. Is it suitable for you to tell me this?”
“Of course it is! Don’t forget, you’re also a member of the Heaven Mending Sect. I have a feeling that you’re tremendously important to the Heaven Mending Sect. In fact, you’re even more important than Little Hong Ling and the Celestial Thearch. With you present, I feel very at ease. I’m also willing to share all of my intel with you.” Nuwa’s voice was relaxed and carefree, and she didn’t seem at all like the high and mighty G.o.ddess that the others made her out to be. Instead, she seemed more like a young girl who was given a lollipop.
Her character as a G.o.d of Creation Stage divine being was falling apart!
However, An Lin understood them fairly well.
He understood the Enlightened Being, and he also understood Nuwa.
The higher one’s cultivation base, the more one could follow their heart. They already possessed invincible power, so they naturally didn’t need to put on a facade of power or might. They could remove this mask and become their true self.
They could be crazy, or they could be lively and adorable.
Regarding the views of others… What did this matter?
“An Lin, congratulations on leading an army and defeating the central front of the Heavenly Human Tribe. You prevented a ma.s.sacre of innocent beings, and you also allowed me to feel more at ease as I continued to pursue my goal of mending of the heavens. This is a tremendous occasion, and I’m extremely thankful toward you,” Nuwa said gratefully.
An Lin frankly accepted her grat.i.tude.
The two of them chattered for a while longer. Nuwa could see that An Lin was feeling down, yet An Lin wasn’t willing to talk about the reason. Thus, they ended the call there.
An Lin was in very low spirits.
However, he wasn’t the most despondent person.
Even more despondent than him was the person in the West Sea.
This was a Supreme Heavenly G.o.d who stoked fear in the hearts of billions of beings of the Tai Chu Continent.
He was the leader of the countless seas of the universe—the Heavenly Sea G.o.d.
His eyes were dull and emotionless, and he gazed at the void before him with an expression of despondence.
The four Heavenly G.o.ds who had just been rescued from captivity were all shuddering in fear as they stood behind him.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Human Tribe army of tens of millions strong didn’t dare to make a peep.
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d didn’t pay any heed to them. Instead, he stood dazed as he stared at the emptiness before him. There was a deafening rumble of emptiness in his mind.
Where’s my gate?
Where on earth has my gate gone?!
