"I shouldn"t keep looking towards this little dragon for too long...He"s starting to affect my mind…."Speaking on the inside to herself, Xiaxue couldn"t help but think that he was really too handsome. And given how one"s dao affected their body, she was sure that his charm would only keep on growing and not turn stagnant or depreciate anytime soon.
Letting out a long breath which surprisingly was multicoloured, Jian Shen very slowly opened his eyes as an insane hunger immediately made his stomach start growling loudly.
Given his cultivation, Jian Shen truly did not need to eat to survive. As for the energy to run his physical body, he previously could use Qi, while now he could even use Dao Laws to replace food.
However, for someone who ate all the time and enjoyed various delicacies when he wasn"t cultivating, Jian Shen"s stomach wasn"t willing to be left all alone and keep itself satisfied with either Qi or Dao Laws.
Smiling wryly at this, Jian Shen put his grumbling stomach aside for a while as he observed the twenty colourful rings floating around him.
"I was really lucky this time… Hahahahaha, can"t believe I once thought that fire was cold..."
Chuckling self deprecatingly, Jian Shen took his own sweet time in looking towards each of his minor dao rings one by one.
"Haaaa… So beautiful…."

"Narcissistic much?"
"Yup. All the time, in fact."
Rolling her eyes, Xiaxue asked, "Can"t you at least act modestly? Women love that you know."
"I don"t need you to love me anymore than you already do. Also, how come you haven"t left even once?! Don"t you care about your son who"s going to enter the City of Beginnings as well?"
"I"m more interested in you than that trash."
Shaking his head, Jian Shen said, "You"re probably the only woman who calls her own son trash."
"Since that is the truth, why wouldn"t I say it? Do you know how much of a humiliation he is to me? If not for how talentless he is, would someone from the Heavenly Dragon Race come all the way here to try and comprehend Dao? Humph! This is that fool"s last chance. If he fails to comprehend dao laws this time as well, I"ll kill him with my own hands."
Grinning s.a.d.i.s.tically as she said those words, Jian Shen felt that the woman was more suited to be a snake rather than a dragon for saying such words.
Still, why would he be bothered about what this woman wanted to do?
All he cared about was entering the City of Beginnings, spending the three years inside it while focussing on comprehending various Dao Laws after which he"d instantly escape upon exiting it and enter the Hall of Heroes".
Thinking about this, Jian Shen stood up and began walking outside while a smiling Xiaxue followed him like his shadow.
Resisting the urge to ask what she would do when he disappeared, since he felt that she"d just come up with a way to track him if he did, Jian Shen exited the courtyard and walked towards the closest restaurant to fill his stomach to the brim.
Originally he planned to keep polis.h.i.+ng his knowledge about the dao laws until the City of Beginnings opened, but his stomach obviously wouldn"t allow him to do that before putting some food inside it.
…
Eating, comprehending dao, eating, comprehending dao, repeating this schedule for around two weeks after his non-stop cultivation, Jian Shen finally revealed an excited look since a few seconds back a huge wave appeared when the two tightly shut doors slowly opened.
Leaving the courtyard and looking upwards, Jian Shen had barely seen the gates open when a mysterious power suddenly appeared from the doors and covered him.
Following this, his body was seized by the unknown power due to which he completely blacked out and didn"t know what was happening to him.
For those who were just looking towards him and the other partic.i.p.ants who were selected and given access to enter the City of Beginnings just like him, all of them clearly saw what was happening to all of them.
As the bright gold coloured aura like thing covered all of them, their physical bodies suddenly disappeared after which the golden clouds went back towards the now completely opened gates before completely disappearing from their eyes.
After all, none of them were capable of seeing through the gates.
It wasn"t as if something was blocking them from looking through them or anything, but regardless of how much they tried to, not even someone like Xiaxue could see what was there on the other side of the opened gates.
Still, she didn"t show too much interest in trying to find out because as something that was created by those from the Dao Seeking Race, Xiaxue doubted that there were many who could find out the secrets behind how the City of Beginnings worked and the mechanism behind how the partic.i.p.ants were transported inside it.
After all, even though those from the Dao Seeking Race weren"t famous for their individual combat powers, each and every single one of them was great at comprehending dao and using it to the best of their potential.
This even included how they once created puppets capable of controlling and using dao by themselves, which in simple terms gave them the power to create an endless army which could fight for them without having to worry about the loss of life on their side.
