"What, what?"
On the high platform beside the Millennium Spiritual Milk Pool, Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, was also stunned. His Divine Sense gazed, dumbstruck, at the drop of golden blood within his sea of consciousness that illuminated the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. An utterly indescribable sensation and shock coursed through him.
Eventually, an inexplicable feeling of dread crept into his heart. "What... what is that thing? Why is it inside my body?" he murmured to himself.
"You don't know what that thing is? Neither do I. However, I can feel that it's terrifyingly powerful... Perhaps it's your Guardian God?" Zhen Jingkong's voice sounded again. From his bitter tone alone, one could almost see him shaking his head with a helpless, wry smile. After all, if not for this Guardian God, he probably would have succeeded long ago.
"Guardian God?"
Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, was truly stunned. He gazed once more at the gleaming drop of golden blood, an indescribable feeling welling up in his heart.
I'm not a fool, so I've roughly guessed what happened... but what exactly is that gleaming drop of golden blood? Why is it inside my body? Most importantly, how could it be so terrifying? It completely suppressed Zhen Jingkong, a mysterious and powerful being who claid his Divine Sense and soul had reached the Perfection Peak of Foundation Establishnt True Person! What... what in the world...
Chen Fei's mind was in turmoil. He could hardly believe he had actually escaped death's door.
"Indeed. Otherwise, I would have already possessed you by now."
Zhen Jingkong spoke again, his tone shifting to one of amazent. "It's unbelievable. In this bitter, desolate land, a re commoner's body actually contains sothing so terrifying. What's most shocking is that everything it has displayed so far seems to stem rely from its... revival. It hasn't unleashed any of its power at all." As he finished, even Zhen Jingkong himself was horrified.
It was simply beyond his imagination. A re revival was enough to completely suppress him—a peerless genius whose Divine Sense and soul had reached the Perfection Peak of Foundation Establishnt True Person, hailed as the one closest to becoming a Great Formation Master. He was suppressed so thoroughly he couldn't even lift his head. Even the thought of resisting felt utterly pale and powerless.
If that's the case, should that drop of blood truly unleash its might, a power that could dazzle the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths... just how strong would it be? How could one even begin to imagine it?
He fell silent as this chilling thought surfaced in his mind, for he truly dared not dwell on it any longer.
It would be too terrifying, too astonishing!
"Are you saying it still hasn't revealed its true power?" Upon hearing this, Chen Fei was stunned once more. He found it difficult to believe just how terrifyingly powerful that gleaming drop of golden blood could be. And what are its origins?
"Indeed. However, in the hands of a re Qi Refining Realm Cultivator like you, such a terrifying item is nothing but an inert object—a criminal waste of a divine treasure. I'm afraid only the overlords at the Ancestor Level are qualified to control it and truly unleash its breathtaking, majestic might that could illuminate the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!" As Zhen Jingkong spoke, his voice grew increasingly somber, filled with a sense of dejection and helplessness.
In the Cultivation World, in our Qiannan Ancient Kingdom, only the most powerful beings, at least Primordial Core True Lords, are qualified to be called Ancestor-Level overlords! And I... I was once only half a step away from that realm!
"Ancestor-Level overlords?" Chen Fei murmured, montarily lost in thought. Having inherited the mories of a great expert from the Cultivation World, he knew that in most Ancient Countries, only powerful beings at the Primordial Core True Lord realm were qualified to be called Ancestors. If a being like that obtained this terrifying drop of Golden Blood, they could truly dominate the world, fearing no one! That fact alone only served to highlight the sheer terror of this mysterious Golden Blood existing within my body!
Right now, however, Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, felt his mind was a chaotic ss. He decided to simply push this matter—one he could likely never figure out no matter how hard he thought about it—to the back of his mind.
He then turned his cold gaze toward the cloud of ice-blue mist that represented Zhen Jingkong and said slowly, "You just tried to possess . Now, don't you think you owe an explanation?"
"Explanation?"
The ice-blue mist trembled arduously before a calm voice erged. "What kind of explanation do you want? I rely wanted to survive, and you just happened to wander in, becoming my target as a matter of course. I know you hate now, and you are not wrong to feel that way. But my desire to live is not wrong, either. The only thing 'wrong' here is desire itself, and the old principle that the victor is king and the loser is the villain. That is all."
"You..."
Chen Fei was stunned again. He had not expected the man to be so direct and calm, and it left him at a loss for words.
He's right. The man just wanted to survive, nothing more. There's nothing wrong with that.
But I don't want to die, either. At this thought, a hint of calm flickered in Chen Fei, Young Master Chen's eyes. He looked at the mist again and said slowly, "Regardless, you nearly obliterated my soul. Do you really think I can just do nothing and let it go?"
"Indeed. If our roles were reversed, I certainly wouldn't let it go either. However, I can compensate you, make ands for what I have done. And more importantly, right now, you need to be alive!" Zhen Jingkong stated calmly.
