Chapter 2220: Assaulting the God King (Part 2)
Library of Heaven's Path · 第2220章 冲击神王(下)
"I'm being serious... Are you worried about running out of time? If you don't want it to be real, you can use the Golden Millet Dream! As long as you set up the right environment, not only can you conceive and have a child, but even if the child grows up, it won't take too long..."
said the little yellow chick.
The Imperial Lord could operate the Time-Space Mirror, so naturally he also had the special formation for the Golden Millet Dream.
This formation could quickly send someone into a dream, and within the dream, time passed extremely fast. A whole lifetime could be lived out before the millet cooked in the outside world.
Zhang Xuan fell into thought.
If that were the case, it was feasible. After all, it was all in a dream, so it didn't count for much. But... he was only twenty years old. If he did this, it would be like living his entire life in advance. By then, he would probably no longer have his current temperament and passion.
Moreover, whether in a dream or reality, having a child necessarily meant having a wife. Whether it was real or not, it would be unfair to Luo Ruoxi.
"Is there any other way?"
Shaking his head, he asked again.
"You don't have children, but you have many students. 'He who teaches me for one day is my father for life'... The emotions of parents are even stronger than this. As long as you can understand that, you don't need the Golden Millet Dream... and you don't need to create a child!"
The little yellow chick pouted and said.
This master of his was really a blockhead.
The girl before him was so beautiful and deeply devoted to him. Such a good opportunity, and he didn't seize it... Served him right to be single!
Wait... It seemed I was also a single chick... At least this one had someone who liked him, but as for me, not even a hen, let alone a duck...
The little yellow chick immediately became melancholy...
"He who teaches me for one day is my father for life?"
Zhang Xuan sank into contemplation.
He had no children and couldn't truly experience the love and feelings of parents, but toward his many students, he had no partiality.
As long as it was something of his own, no matter how good, he was willing to give it to them. As long as they could live better, he would spare no effort, never backing down...
The sacrifices of parents were even greater than this...
With this thought, the smile of the Xingmeng Sword Saint appeared in his mind again.
Knowing the danger, she still followed him to the God Realm without hesitation. Knowing how many dangers would arise, she still guarded him desperately, never retreating...
This was parents, the ultimate love in the world.
Asking for nothing in return, seeking nothing, only giving...
"The thread in the hands of a loving mother, the clothes on the wanderer's body. Before leaving, she stitches tightly, fearing his late return. Who says the heart of an inch of grass can repay the rays of the spring sun..."
A thought surged into his mind. Zhang Xuan's internal true qi began to circulate with the words. Streams of sword qi surged around his body, twisting the space around him as if tearing it apart, creating crack after crack.
"Comprehending sword qi and cultivation technique simultaneously?"
The little yellow chick shrank its neck, eyes wide.
Having followed his master, he knew that his master usually comprehended the cultivation technique first, then explored the sword art. But now, he was comprehending both at the same time...
His talent was too heaven-defying!
"The tree desires stillness but the wind will not cease; the child wishes to care for his parents but they are no longer there..."
Sword qi crisscrossed, filled with reluctance and regret.
In Zhang Xuan's previous life, his parents died early. He wanted to fulfill his filial duty but couldn't. In this life, he had been working hard, but he and his parents were often apart.
To say he had deep feelings for his parents—he couldn't fully experience it, but he could imagine their worries.
It was like his feelings for his students.
His eleven students were scattered across the Nine Heavens. To say he wasn't worried would be false. Using this mindset to understand his parents, he naturally understood how worried and conflicted they were.
For the sake of their child's future, knowing they couldn't stop him, yet the path was fraught with danger, they were reluctant in their hearts, wishing they could take his place...
This was parents, this was parental love!
Whoosh!
The Dan King suddenly appeared in the air, opened its mouth, and swallowed.
The potent medicinal power surged within his body. Countless spiritual energies quickly gathered, transforming into streams of Heaven's Compassion true qi, filling the previously empty ocean.
This pill contained the purest medicinal power of several God King Grasses, more accumulated than that of a real God King. Once it entered his body, the ocean that had been depleted by the Heavenly Dao true qi began to ebb and flow again, with waves surging, a formidable sight.
Crack!
As the ocean filled up, the barrier of the God King could no longer withstand it and directly opened.
Zhang Xuan's aura, like a giant dragon, leaped into the air, undergoing a qualitative transformation.
After an unknown amount of time, the fluctuation of power subsided.
Zhang Xuan exhaled and stood up.
Although he had broken through to the God King realm, it was only the initial stage. It wasn't that the Dan King was too weak, but the previous depletion had been too great, and the Heaven's Compassion true qi had extremely high demands on spiritual energy. To reach the peak, he would probably need at least several pills of this level.
One pill that could help fill the empty ocean and successfully break through to God King was already potent enough!
"The remaining three God King Barrier-Breaking Pills won't have much effect on me. Instead, they could help my parents, Sun Qiang, and others break through, so I'll save them for now..."
He smiled slightly.
In his storage ring, there were still three God King Barrier-Breaking Pills. Swallowing them now would have some effect on his cultivation, but not much—he might not even break through to the mid-stage God King. But giving them to his parents, Sun Qiang, and others would be different!
They could easily break through the shackles of the Upper Grade Heavenly God and achieve God King!
He looked down into his body.
After breaking through to God King, the true qi in his body became even more refined, and the range of the power ocean expanded greatly. Compared to this, his previous true qi reserves were like a drop in the bucket.
"Let's go!"
With his cultivation breakthrough, he no longer needed to worry about the gray currents before him. Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, and the God King Sword appeared at his fingertip. He gently slashed.
The sword technique activated, forming a barrier around his body.
Heaven's Compassion, God King realm sword technique... The tree desires stillness but the wind will not cease; the child wishes to care for his parents but they are no longer there!
The sword qi was filled with reluctance.
What use was high cultivation? What use was earning more?
Once parents are gone, it's too late to accompany them.
Life is always like this: when you want to do something, it's too late! What you have, you don't cherish.
Whoosh!
The little yellow chick and Luo Qiqi entered the sword qi barrier. Zhang Xuan moved his body and flew straight toward the gray mist before him.
The currents exploded one after another, as if pierced by the sword intent.
After flying continuously for half an hour, the mist disappeared, and Zhang Xuan and the others stopped.
The road ahead had no end, as if the spatial boundary was sealed.
"Try to see if we can contact the Upper Firmament here..."
Without rushing, Zhang Xuan took out the Great Emperor Seal again, and with a thought, sent a message.
The runes flickered, and power flowed.
"It works..."
His eyes lit up, and Zhang Xuan smiled slightly.
Here, he could already communicate with the Upper Firmament, and even sense the messages sent by Du Qingyuan.
"Let Du Qingyuan perform the sacrifice..."
Knowing this, Zhang Xuan said no more and sent a series of words.
Upper Firmament... I'm back!
