Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled Chapter 208 - 206: Breakthrough Opportunity!

Xia Tianming probably never expected that just writing this answer would take him over ten thousand years.

During these ten thousand years, Xia Tianming defined the Great Dao of Space countless tis, but each ti the results seed unsatisfactory.

No matter what he tried, he never seed to find the correct answer.

The Divine Road is known to be difficult, even for a genius like Xia Tianming, it is hard to pass through in one go.

"In two thousand years, it’ll be twenty thousand years... I’m really curious about how those Martial Artists who broke through to Martial God answered this question." Xia Tianming looked up with a wry smile.

He opened his arms and fell backward; after countless years of deep contemplation, Xia Tianming was also exhausted.

Eventually, he couldn’t hold on anymore, laying back flatly and emptying his mind.

"Grandpa, don’t worry, if breaking through to Martial God were so easy, the whole continent would be covered in Divine Domains. You’ve already achieved sothing remarkable." Xiao Feng, imitating Xia Tianming’s posture, lay on the grass, looking up at the clouds drifting by.

"Xiao Feng, what do you think the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth actually is? It seems that no matter how it’s defined, it’s wrong. What is the real answer?"

"This... I don’t know either." Xiao Feng thought for a mont, then shook his head.

"We are born into this world, with grasslands and rivers, sky and oceans, it seems like everything has already been constructed."

"These together could be called the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth." Xiao Feng shook his head, "But if you ask what their essence is, I really can’t answer that."

"I see." Xia Tianming sighed, then slowly closed his eyes.

With the gentle breeze brushing against him, he gradually relaxed his entire mind.

Being in the Dream Realm, he couldn’t dream again, but his mind, tense for thousands of years, finally relaxed a little.

Unable to find the answer, it was no use for Xia Tianming to continue oppressing himself.

In the ti that followed, Xia Tianming stopped cultivating. Instead, he traveled through the Dream Realm created by Xiao Feng.

He shed his identity as Emperor Xia, transforming into an ordinary old man, climbing over mountains, passing through dozens of cities, witnessing the warmth and coldness of the human world.

Throughout his journey, he kept asking himself, what really is Dao, what is truth?

Xia Tianming was on the brink of a breakthrough, with only a thin layer of mbrane holding him back.

Yet this clearly visible thin mbrane could not be penetrated.

After hundreds of years of traveling, he changed his identity, becoming a swordsman, an innkeeper, a teacher at a private school.

He adopted one identity after another, trying to understand the essence of heaven and earth.

For a long ti, he stopped pondering what Dao was.

Xiao Feng stayed by Xia Tianming’s side, acting as his subordinate, a servant, a student in the private school.

From Xia Tianming, he gained a clearer understanding of his Dao.

Even without cultivating to enhance his realm, the benefits brought by insight were far superior to burying himself in cultivation.

Under Xia Tianming’s influence, Xiao Feng also began to contemplate his own Dao.

Over a thousand years went by, and Xia Tianming’s footsteps ca to a halt.

At this mont, he was fishing by a lake, the surface rippling, the gentle breeze wafting.

Beside him, there was a net with over ten large fish caught.

Xiao Feng sat beside him, staring blankly at the lake’s surface.

Xia Tianming’s lips slightly curled up. He lifted the fishing rod with a light smile and said, "I finally understand."

"The reason why all definitions are wrong is because Dao, by nature, cannot be defined."

Xiao Feng was startled, imdiately turning to look at him with excitent.

Seeing Xia Tianming take a deep breath, he tossed the fishing rod aside and sat cross-legged with confidence.

"Between heaven and earth is space, but I want to beco a god, to be the Martial God of Space Dao!" Xia Tianming shouted upwards, "If heaven won’t grant it, I’ll seize the Great Dao with my own hands!"

"My Great Dao of Space doesn’t need your definition. In my opinion, everything should follow my rules!"

"Space is my authority, not yours!"

"Boom!"

Suddenly, Xia Tianming, who finally achieved enlightennt, erupted with an extrely terrifying aura, and even the owner of the Dream Realm Pearl, Xiao Feng, was knocked back.

"How terrifying, is he about to break through?"

Xiao Feng’s pupils shrank, the aura around Xia Tianming was incredibly frightening, even the slightest exposure to its residual power made him shiver uncontrollably.

"Not good, the Dream Realm Pearl might not withstand it!"

Seeing the spiritual power gathering in the sky and the terrifying thunderclouds, Xiao Feng reacted instantly.

The Dream Realm Pearl grows with his realm, but he didn’t know the limits within the Dream Realm; however, being in the Martial Sovereign Realm, Xiao Feng couldn’t control the realm of the Martial God.

"Disperse!"

Without hesitation, Xiao Feng imdiately ended the Dream Realm Cultivation, and both he and Xia Tianming woke up in the real world together.

Xia Tianming was montarily stunned, ready to break through his realm when the environnt suddenly switched, and the artistic conception within him dissipated significantly.

"It’s okay." Seeing Xiao Feng’s sowhat apologetic gaze, Xia Tianming waved his hand, "Your actions were correct. It’s just one chance for a breakthrough, if it destroyed your unique way of cultivation, that would be a loss."

"Grandpa, will this affect your future breakthrough?"

Xiao Feng sighed and couldn’t help but ask.

"No problem, it’s just a burst of energy, after dispersing it, I can gather it again." Xia Tianming shook his head, "I’ve already mastered the essence of breaking through, give a day or two, and I can attempt the breakthrough again."

"That’s good to hear." Hearing this, Xiao Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been really afraid that his instinctive action to protect the Dream Realm would ruin Xia Tianming’s opportunity to beco a god.

"Breaking through to Martial God is a big deal, and right at this critical mont, there are plenty of people who don’t wish us well." Suddenly, Xiao Feng seed to think of sothing else, furrowing his brows as he gazed toward the Rizhao Empire.

"I’ll notify the ancestors, if you’re going to breakthrough to Martial God, you will need soone to protect your Dao."

"I felt it just now, the Divine Tribulation of breaking through to Martial God is life-threatening, and the commotion is imnse. If soone launched a sneak attack, it would probably an certain death."

In a flash, many thoughts crossed Xiao Feng’s mind.

Xia Tianming didn’t object; he nodded in agreent with Xiao Feng’s words.

When breaking through to Martial God, no degree of caution was too much.

To breakthrough in this heaven and earth, the natural phenona caused are trendously intense. Fortunately, Xia Tianming possesses the Divine Artifact Void Cauldron, which can absorb the power of lightning during the Divine Tribulation, greatly increasing his chances of success.

But to be safe, it was still necessary to have the past Emperors Xia erge to protect the Dao.
