Chapter 601 Natal Divine Weapon, Sacrificial Artifact? Zhao Xing was shocked!
The Boundless God King stared at Zhao Xing for a long time before finally speaking.

"I didn't really believe in luck before."

"Now I can deeply understand the way of destiny."

“Since you kidnapped Ruixuan, it’s as if two people with great fortune have stood on my side.”

"It's as if from that moment on, I was destined to win big."

The tone of the Boundless True God was not as solemn and dignified as before; instead, it sounded like he was having a casual chat with him.

Zhao Xing cupped his hands and said, "I once heard a saying: 'Luck is a humble word used by the strong and an excuse used by the weak.'"

"The God-King's power is boundless, and his Dao extends throughout the heavens. Even if there were a hundred more Ruixuans and me, it wouldn't affect the final outcome."

The Boundless God King smiled and beckoned Zhao Xing to sit before him on the throne. After sitting down, Zhao Xing relaxed a little, no longer as reserved as before.

"Do you know that if the Ten Directions War Order is not dropped, it will take some more time for me to become a God King, because my divine essence in the Divine Machine City cannot leave."

"If you can't get out, you can't get the certificate smoothly."

"Of course, I have many ways to deal with this, but none of them are as good as what you did, directly luring in the Ten Directions Commander."

Zhao Xing listened quietly. This was the Boundless God King's post-battle debriefing. The details of such a high-level duel were difficult for outsiders to know, but he was now listening to a firsthand account.

"The time you saved is also crucial. During the Chaos Era, the Heavenly King Xi had already occupied one of my Chaos Territories and begun refining sacrificial artifacts."

"The timing of the Ten Directions Battle Order is synchronized with that Chaos Territory. The longer it drags on, the more advantageous it will be for Xi Tian God King."

"The worst-case scenario is that Xi Tian Shen Wang has successfully crafted a sacrificial artifact."

"As a mechanical engineer, I can roughly deduce that his chances of success are relatively low."

"No matter how long Xi Tian Shen Wang drags it out, he only has a 30% chance at most."

"Of course, if I truly succeed in refining it, even if I become a God King, it will be too late, because I will be facing Xi Tiandao Master."

"At that point, the only option was to run for your life."

Zhao Xing nodded. With the sacrificial artifact, the God King would advance to the Dao Lord level, which would be another step up. It was normal that the newly formed God King of Boundless Realm couldn't defeat him.

The sacrificial artifact is unique, and the Nine Netherworld Palace is probably one of them. Zhao Xing has already glimpsed a corner of its wonders. It can carry the Nian Beast through many time barriers, and even when facing multiple pursuits and blockades, it can still eat and drink well.

That was still unclaimed, and it was still this strong even though the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds was already dead.

"The Heavenly King Xi used the incident involving the real and fake Zhao Xing to first see through my trump card, then find the flaw in my magic, and then activate the Ten Directions Battle Order. At the same time, he seized the Chaos Territory to refine weapons. It can be said that he planned before acting and that each step was closely linked."

"He has his eye on my Chaos Territory because only I can occupy it, which increases the success rate of the sacrificial artifact."

Zhao Xing thought he had incurred the hatred of Xi Tian and Wu Liang, but he didn't expect that there was a conflict of interest involved.

Indeed, it's normal that Wuliang, being the god of mechanics, occupies a special Chaos Territory.

"Now, he failed to refine the Dao artifact and was driven away by me. His subordinates suffered heavy casualties, and the Ten Directions Battle Order fell into my hands. Instead, it has brought me immeasurable fame."

"The most serious consequence is that the reputation of the Xi Tian God King will decline as a result. For priests, reputation is faith and incense offerings."

"The faith in people's hearts is a great mountain. If the mountain is shaken, it is equivalent to a decline in strength. It is very difficult to rebuild and requires a long time."

"The sudden drop of the Ten Directions Battle Order caught him off guard. The timing of the rescue of Shenji City was just right. Among countless possibilities, the result I wanted most occurred—at that time, Xi Tian Divine King had divided half of his divine essence to refine the Dao artifact. I had successfully attained Dao and rushed there, only to find him at his lowest point."

As he spoke, the Boundless God King couldn't help but laugh: "Xi Tian's expression at the time was quite interesting. He tried to act as if nothing had happened, but in reality, he was extremely shocked."

"When I first became a God King, I would not have much of an advantage if I were to confront Xi Tian at his peak."

"But he thought he had the victory in his grasp, so he focused on casting his spells, which was when he was at his weakest."

"Hahahaha, with just one move of Seven Luminaries Boundless Heaven, I broke his composure and he could no longer remain calm, spitting out true blood."

"He didn't even dare to resist, and fled for his life in a panic."

Zhao Xing imagined the scene and couldn't help but laugh.

The Boundless God-King needs to establish his prestige because he is not afraid of cause and effect. On the contrary, true gods need their names to spread more widely, and it is beneficial for the more people to know their venerable name.

Normally, Xi Tian, ​​the God King, would never have been able to be beaten so badly by Wu Liang. However, the sacrificial artifact was interrupted at a crucial moment, leaving him helpless. This led to the legendary tale of Wu Liang defeating Xi Tian in one move.

Xi Tian Shen Wang must be feeling quite aggrieved, because he will find it difficult to get revenge in the future, since the Boundless Realm will stabilize very quickly.

"You brought me the best result in this war." The Boundless God King said happily, "You deserve the greatest credit for the siege of Shenji City. However, it would be too formal to talk about rewards with others.

The Boundless God King beckoned, and a drop of golden light appeared at his fingertip: "This is a drop of true blood from the Xi Tian God King, containing about thirty percent of his divine essence."

"The final step in making your natal divine weapon will be to use this drop of true blood to consecrate it."

What? Zhao Xing was startled.

Thirty percent of Xi Tian Shen Wang's divine essence?!

For my destined divine weapon?

"That's right, it's the divine essence and true blood he intended to use to refine the Dao artifact. However, only 30% of it is in there. Because he stopped the refinement quite decisively, it seems that someone reminded him, so he withdrew 20% of the divine essence."

"This is far too valuable; Zhao Xing dares not accept it."

Divine essence has a wide range of uses; it can be absorbed or used to refine artifacts. It mainly depends on what the person who split the divine essence wants to do. This particular divine essence is specifically used for refining artifacts.

Wuliang Gangzheng, the God King of Mechanical Arts, also understands weapon crafting, and it's clear that he needs it too.

“I didn’t actually do much; ultimately, it was your own ability to win that mattered,” Zhao Xing emphasized.

Seeing Zhao Xing decline, Wuliang waved his right hand, and a strange magical artifact appeared.

It resembles a shattered crystal ball, evenly broken into eight pieces, yet still connected to each other, retaining its spherical shape.

It's just that its volume is a bit larger than it actually is.

It is also layered, with a total of nine layers from the surface of the sphere to the Earth's core.

There were filamentous things floating in it, like veins of earth.

At the center there is a blazing fireball, like the sun.

Upon closer inspection, Zhao Xing noticed that it resembled Jie Faluo in a slight way, but was even more perfect than Jie Faluo.

"This is your destined divine weapon. Doesn't it look like the Boundary Falcon?"

“It’s a little bit similar, but it’s more perfect.” Zhao Xing nodded.

“He was originally seven parts similar to Jie Falu.” The Boundless God King said, “Although Jie Falu has never been able to attain enlightenment, his philosophy of weapon crafting is ‘exhausting the great principles of mechanisms.’ It is indeed unique and worth learning from.”

“I further improved upon your Divine Warrior form by referencing it.”

"In the end, it turned out like this."

Zhao Xing recalled that the Boundless God King had gone into seclusion to refine his natal divine weapon, and since he couldn't see him at the time, he and Lao Qing went to the Thousand Feather Great World first.

"I no longer know what its effects are," said the Boundless God King.

"Even you didn't know?" Zhao Xing was taken aback.

"Yes." The Boundless God King smiled and brought the God King's True Blood to the side of the magic artifact: "If we don't use it to consecrate the artifact, it's just a piece of junk."

"Therefore, this drop of true blood belongs to you alone."

After going around in circles, he still wants to use the God King's true blood for himself.

Having said all that, if Zhao Xing were to refuse again, it would be ungrateful and would only make their relationship seem distant.

"I certainly can't let your masterpiece become a waste." Zhao Xing smiled and took the magic weapon and the true blood.

"How should I perform the ritual to consecrate the soldiers?"

"It requires your hard work, plus the imprint of your soul, to drive the fusion of the four elements with divine power."

"Okay." Without saying a word, Zhao Xing placed his life's blood, soul imprint, and natal divine weapon and the true blood of the God King together.

Then, he used divine power to envelop and merge the four elements.

With a violent tremor, a burst of light erupted, and Zhao Xing felt his thoughts suddenly become heavy, then become ethereal and empty in an instant.

Then the divine light slowly receded.

"Om~"

A silver-white sphere with a hollowed-out pattern spun and fell into the palm of the hand.

The light emanating from inside was very faint, almost like a cold light.

At the same time, there are multiple layers of light, like the light from the earth's veins, that disturb the sunlight.

In Zhao Xing's eyes, light and shadow were reflected, as if he were looking at a kaleidoscope.

"This……"

Zhao Xing held the silvery-white sphere, momentarily lost in thought.

"What does it feel like?"

I don't know how to describe it.

The Boundless God King was taken aback.

That shouldn't be the case. Can't the true blood of the God-King bring forth a divine weapon?

Surely Zhao Xing's misfortune after using the "one-line fishing" technique couldn't have come from this fish!

"broken?"

"No, no, I said it's strange, but it's definitely not broken. How should I put it, I can't explain it."

"This is strange. A natal divine weapon should be like a part of one's own body, and its effects should be crystal clear, but I just can't explain it."

Seeing that the Boundless God King had misunderstood, Zhao Xing quickly explained.

Seeing Zhao Xing scratching his head, he was clearly in a hurry to explain.

Wuliang smiled and said, "Don't rush. Since it's not broken, why don't you demonstrate it with a spell?"

“Okay.” Zhao Xing nodded immediately.

Even when he tried to demonstrate, he paused for quite a while.

Soon the sphere in his hand grew proportionally larger and quickly reached the ceiling of the main hall.

With a slight movement of his finger, the Boundless God King caused the temple to rapidly expand.

However, Zhao Xing's sphere expanded rapidly and soon reached the maximum size of the temple.

But it still showed no sign of stopping.

The Boundless True God simply put away the temple, revealing the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the silver sphere expanded to be larger than Shenji City, completely enveloping it in the upper part of the eastern hemisphere.

At this moment, Zhao Xing had already disappeared. The Boundless God King scanned the area twice before discovering that he was sitting in the center of the sphere.

Immediately afterwards, three lightning balls floated out.

The Boundless True God could see that this was the Nine Source Divine Thunder that Zhao Xing had cultivated, which consisted of Heavy Water, Flowing Abyss, and Earthly Fiend Divine Thunder, but they had not yet been fused together.

"Ok?"

The Boundless God King was somewhat surprised.

Because the outer layer of the sphere disappeared, or rather, it didn't disappear, but replaced the original 'sky' of Shenji City.

The earth appeared below, forming 'land'.

The three lightning orbs were incredibly powerful, even causing the hands of the clock tower on the outer perimeter of the God King City to tremble.

"Offering sacrifices to Heaven and Earth? I see."

"Zhao Xing, that's enough. Don't fuse the divine lightning."

"I'm losing control!" Zhao Xing's voice was somewhat excited. "Please help me!"

"clang!"

With a thought, the Boundless God King caused countless clocks to chime, their hands turning back, and the Great Dao of Time, filling the heavens and earth, began to reverse.

"Om~"

The sphere reappeared, the Divine Machine City continued to grow larger, while the natal divine weapon continued to shrink.

Finally, the two reappeared before the throne, maintaining their state before the spell was cast.

"What a treasure! It actually forced me to reverse time and space." A strange light flashed in the eyes of the Boundless God King.

"Whoo~"

Zhao Xing was drenched in sweat and let out a long sigh of relief.

Although the Boundless God King reversed time and space, he was unaffected, but his divine power was still consumed, and his mind felt extremely tired.

It took a while to recover.

The Boundless God King laughed and said, "If your divine lightning had been fused just now, most of the buildings and magic arrays of my Divine Machine City would probably be gone."

"If you were to destroy Shenji City before it fell into enemy hands, people would laugh their heads off."

"How could this be?" Zhao Xing exclaimed in surprise. "My magic shouldn't be that powerful."

"I have just become a God-King, and the magic array and barrier of the Divine Machine City were still established during the time of the original God-General. What's impossible about that?"

"Are you saying that if I had just used the divine lightning fusion spell, it would have been comparable to your divine general era?"

"It surpasses it in many ways," commented the Boundless God King.

“Your natal divine weapon has just replaced the heaven and earth of my Divine Machine City.”

"Why is this happening?" Zhao Xing was somewhat surprised. He felt that his natal divine weapon was different from the weapons he had used before, and was very special.

"It's probably because of the Heavenly King Xi Tian; his divine blood gives this item some of the characteristics of a sacrificial artifact," the Boundless God King pondered.

"The reason why a God-King can be called a Dao Lord is because the Dao artifact can follow him and replace the Dao in a certain place, allowing the God-King to control a certain Dao."

"There are distinctions between the Way, the Great Way, the Lesser Way, and the Side Way."

"What we usually call the Dao Master is the ultimate Dao. Its method is also called the Ultimate Dao Method."

“Sacrificial artifacts, the ultimate Dao, the supreme Dao techniques…” Zhao Xing asked thoughtfully, “Then what kind of great power does the God Emperor possess? Could it be that he created the ultimate Dao?”

“I’ve asked the same question to the three God-Emperors,” said the Boundless True God. “The three God-Emperors gave different answers, so you’ll have to find the answer yourself in the future.”

Zhao Xing stopped thinking about it; he didn't even have a single certificate right now. Thinking about these things was really too far off.

"Your natal divine weapon currently only possesses some characteristics of a sacrificial artifact. Whether it can truly grow into a sacrificial artifact depends on its development."

"But at least, there is a possibility." The Boundless God King was very pleased.

First, I'm happy for Zhao Xing, and second, I'm happy for myself, because he's the one who refined this!

In the endless expanse of time and space, those who can forge sacrificial artifacts can be counted on one hand.

Despite Xi Tian Shen Wang's meticulous planning and years of preparation, he has at most a 30% chance of success.

"If it grows, remember to come back so I can study it," the Boundless God King laughed.

Zhao Xing's smile gradually faded, and he fell silent.

He understood the unspoken meaning: the Boundless God King wanted to let him go.

"I will definitely bring it back when it grows up."

The Boundless God King paused for a moment, then said, "Zhao Xing, give it a name."

Zhao Xing: "Since you refined it, you should name it."

The Boundless God King thought for a moment and said, "I did think about naming it when I created it."

"Because it took shape when I became a God King, and it required the true blood of a God King to awaken its spirit, its growth potential is limitless. I may never be able to create another one in this lifetime."

"What is his name?" Zhao Xing asked.

"His divine wisdom is boundless."

"Thank you for bestowing this name upon me." Zhao Xing stroked the silver sphere, channeling his thoughts into it.

The Divine Machine and Life Box is the object and method by which the Boundless Divine King attained enlightenment.

[Divine Mechanism - Boundless] will become the object of my enlightenment!

The two then talked for a long time.

It was mainly the Boundless God King preaching on behalf of Zhao Xing.

After preaching alone for about thirty years, Zhao Xing finally emerged from the Boundless Temple.

He glanced back at the temple, feeling a pang of reluctance.

Joining Shenji City was the most rewarding experience for him.

Not only did he rise from a demigod to a divine general, but he also acquired a natal divine weapon that had the potential to become a sacrificial artifact.

Before leaving, Wuliang also gave himself a companion token from the Chaos Era: Primordial Continent.

Originally, both he and Lao Qing had a fake item, but Wuliang Shenwang replaced the fake with the real one.

“What has had a truly profound impact is actually these thirty years of solitary preaching,” Zhao Xing remarked. “Many divine generals may spend their entire lives without achieving what I have gained in these thirty years.”

Zhao Xing's knowledge base was enriched by his insights into different deities, his experiences in attaining enlightenment, his life experiences, and the strengths of various major powers.

Inside the hall, the Boundless God King also looked at Zhao Xing's back through the door.

"Master, why did you let Zhao Xing go?" Peacock appeared beside him, puzzled.

The master was clearly reluctant, but he still had to let Zhao Xing leave.

“I never considered him my follower from the beginning,” said the Boundless God King. “What talk of letting him go?” “But if he returns to the desolate era that is opposed to us, he will inevitably be unable to control his own destiny and will clash with the Divine Machine City…” Peacock couldn’t help but say.

"Unable to control his own destiny?" The Boundless God-King laughed: "Who could possibly make him unable to control his own destiny?"

“I have a great karmic connection with him. After I attained enlightenment, my Dao spread throughout the heavens, and I saw his lingering shadow from time.”

"Even just one glance is enough to know that no one can make him lose control of his own destiny."

"Moreover, he may not return to the Desolate Era this time; he has his own path to follow."

…………

"Zhao Xing is out." Dao Qinglu, Qing Yuzi, and Lü Ming were drinking and admiring the moon when they suddenly sensed Zhao Xing's return.

“He has been preaching alone for thirty years; Wuliang has truly treated him with great kindness.” Qingyuzi watched the streak of light fly into Huailiu Courtyard.

"Strange, you don't feel a trace of jealousy?" Lü Ming looked at Qing Yuzi. "Aren't you his teacher?"

“Our era was different from yours.”

"Besides, it can't really be considered a master-disciple relationship." Qingyuzi smiled. "In one of my past lives, I left behind a secret technique, but it was nothing more than a transaction."

"Later, he used my identity as a disciple to act."

“He had learned some Taoist techniques, but those techniques were from the Purple God Palace.”

"He has never learned any of the secret techniques I created, nor have I personally taught them to him."

Indeed, Zhao Xing entered the cave dwelling of Qingyuzi in the westernmost state of the Xuanhuang Realm as a fellow villager and obtained the inheritance.

He later ascended to the ancient Yuanhai Kingdom, the Purple Moon Star System, and the legacy of Qingyu Star, but he did not inherit it.

They just use this name to act when they are on the move.

As for his subsequent resurrection and godhood, he was simply caught up in it.

Qingyuzi became a god and repaid his karmic debts, but he never acknowledged Zhao Xing as his disciple, nor did they have any master-disciple relationship.

Before becoming a demigod, Zhao Xing's techniques were basically learned from the Five Poisons Sect, and his path was taught by Gu Luohe, Zuo Qiyu, and Emperor Hongshan. When he became a demigod, he was taught by the Divine General Lanchuan of the Ancient Hill.

“I’m more like an investor,” Qing Yuzi said. “It started as a business deal, but later, due to the entanglements of cause and effect, it’s not convenient to say who owes whom.”

"The Temple of Reincarnation upholds the Way of Balance; you are quite an anomaly." Lü Ming couldn't help but sigh as he listened to Lü Ming recount his experience of becoming a god.

"I wonder what the so-called Wilderness Era is like. It sounds very interesting. I'd like to go and see it sometime."

In the three eras of the Wilderness Era, only Qingyuzi became a god on the native land.

The rest of them need to travel through time and space to become gods.

Such difficulty completely overturned Lu Ming's understanding.

Isn't becoming a god easy?
Therefore, he developed a great curiosity.

Qingyuzi smiled silently.

"why are you laughing?"

"I'm reminded of a joke from the mortal world: a rich young man who was used to the pleasures of city life envied the idyllic rural life, which he found poetic and picturesque. So he decided to find someone to take him to experience real rural life."

"As it turned out, the guide did take him there, but he ran away and came back after less than three days."

"why?"

"Because he wore dirty and smelly clothes, ate coarse rice mixed with sand, and traveled on rugged mountain paths."

"After a long day of carrying manure and fertilizing, planting rice seedlings, I would come back to find myself in a drafty house, and I couldn't sleep at all because of the mosquito bites."

"The reality he wanted was completely different from the reality he imagined."

Qingyuzi took a sip of wine: "You were born in the era of the Five Emperors, in the environment of heaven and earth, and in the origin of the Great Dao, just like the young master of the city in this story."

“If you go to the Wilderness Era for a quick visit, it won’t be much different from what you see here. If you want a real experience, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle it and will be very disappointed.”

"You'll only realize how precious I am once you've been there. Don't underestimate me."

"Brother, do you know how many hardships I've endured to be able to sit here with you, drinking and admiring the moon? Just that one time..."

Lü Ming laughed and said, "Who asked you that? You just take every opportunity to tell me about your great achievements."

"Hahaha."

……

"The Qi Luck Divine Techniques you requested are all here." In the Huai Liu Courtyard, Rui Xuan carried down a pile of books.

Each book was extremely heavy and could not be stored in the World Ring. It could be stored in the Inner World, but Ruixuan was not the original self Si Nong, so it could only be brought over by cart.

"Thank you, no need to move them." Zhao Xing waved his hand, and the Taoist books were all stored into his inner world.

"That's so convenient," Ruixuan said enviously.

The unique feature of the inner world is that it can contain many things that other spatial objects cannot.

"I won't invite you in," Zhao Xing said, intending to see the guest out.

Now that Ruixuan has become a part of Shenji City, the Boundless God King has returned many divine artifacts to Ruixuan.

But since he had imprisoned Ruixuan, even though the grudges had been resolved, they wouldn't be as warm towards each other anymore.

"Wait, I heard you're leaving?" Ruixuan asked.

"Who told you that?" Zhao Xing asked in surprise.

"Well, actually I haven't heard anyone say that, it's just my own feeling," Ruixuan said. "People have luck, heaven and earth have luck, countries have national luck, and Shenji City, as a major power, naturally also has its own luck."

"I sense that your luck hasn't been integrated into Shenji City, so naturally you're destined to leave."

Zhao Xing did not answer Ruixuan, but instead gave him a piece of advice:
"Fellow Daoist, you must guard your mouth from now on. There is a saying that disaster comes from the mouth."

Although he was not a follower of the Divine Machine City, it did not mean that he had severed ties with the Boundless God King; he was simply adapting to a different identity.

But right now, we can't let the outside world know, otherwise trouble is bound to arise.

And the people of Shenji City must not know this. What virtue or ability do you, Zhao Xing, possess to dare to discuss the Dao on equal footing with the great Boundless God King?
Therefore, leaving was inevitable. Shenji City did not have a suitable position or rank for Zhao Xing, but it would not be said outright. The relationship between Wuliang Shenwang and Zhao Xing remained close.

"I understand." Ruixuan nodded. "It is impolite not to reciprocate, so I will also give you a piece of advice."

"please say."

"Fortune is like the tide, with its ebb and flow. If you do not cultivate the way of fortune but instead practice the methods of fortune, the effects will be even more pronounced."

"If you fish out the Ten Directions Token, you will surely suffer a misfortune. If you cannot resolve it, you can use the 'Life Pull' method and silently recite the name of 'Yi Yin'."

Zhao Xing asked in confusion, "Who is this?"

Ruixuan shook his head without answering, then drove off in his jewel-encrusted car.

Shaking his head, Zhao Xing walked into the Huai Liu Courtyard and then entered his inner world.

As soon as I entered, I saw the boundless continent crumbling and the sea drying up.

"Where is my vast primordial Qi sea?"

"Oh, it got shot into space."

Who's hitting?
Of course, it's the Nian beast and Lu Ya fighting.

Lu Ya's secret of eating alone could no longer be kept hidden.

It had gained a lot of weight, hadn't had time to digest many of the finest ingredients, and didn't want to stop eating. Plus, the war was over, and Lu Ya was still acting suspiciously.

One day, they were finally discovered by the Nian beast.

Zhao Xing's inner world is 99% plant-based, because the evolution of the New Boundless Continent controlled the variables.

Even if the Nian beast uses a food bowl, it will have difficulty penetrating its inner world to summon meat.

He was already feeling unwell, and then he discovered that Lu Ya had stolen food. This time, the Nian Beast really couldn't take it anymore.

"sprinkle!"

The seawater sprayed back onto the boundless continent, crashing against the cliffs.

The little yellow duck kept darting around, but it still got caught in the icy seawater and became a drowned rat.

"Nian, I'll get angry if you hit me again!" The little yellow duck shivered with cold; his beautiful feathers were frozen stiff.

"You're still angry?!" The Nian beast revealed its true form, its eyes filled with fury.
"I eat grass here every day, and even the mighty Nian beast is almost turning into a herbivore, while you outside eat fish and meat every day and have gained a lot of weight!"

"Eight hundred years! Do you know how I've spent these eight hundred years? You've been cheating on me the whole time, never once thinking of me!"

"It wasn't that long, only eighty-nine years." The little yellow duck felt guilty, but also a little aggrieved.

Because of the different flow of time, the Nian Beast did indeed experience eight hundred years in the inner world, but it only ate delicious food for eighty-nine years outside.

How can you wrongly accuse the duck?
"I don't care!" The Nian beast extended cannons from its wings. "If I don't make you vomit, I'm not Xi!"

Good heavens, the Nian beast seems to be truly enraged; it has even transformed.

Zhao Xing immediately went to stop him.

He had to stop it; if the fighting continued, what would become of his inner world?
If it gets smashed, your lifespan will be shortened.

"Lord Nian, please calm down!"

Zhao Xing stood in front of Lu Ya.

"Zhao Xing, you're here!" The little yellow duck immediately shrank behind Zhao Xing. "Let me out quickly, he's gone mad."

"Aaaaah!" The Nian beast roared in anger, because Zhao Xing was still standing in front of Lu Ya, which was blatant favoritism.

swoosh~
Zhao Xing first released Lu Ya, and then let the Nian beast bombard him, allowing him to vent his anger.

He deliberately made himself look miserable, but in reality, his Primordial Divine Body was further strengthened in his inner world, and the injuries were all intentionally created by him.

The claim that there was smoke but no harm, and that the noise was loud, meant that Zhao Xing was actually unharmed.

After the Nian beast got hungry, Zhao Xing ran over to apologize, looking miserable.

Unlike Lu Ya, the Nian Beast doesn't eat Zhao Xing's flesh. This is the rule of the Nian Beast Lord: he doesn't eat his own people, especially the cooks who prepare his meals.

“Lord Nian Beast, I will make up for everything that Lu Ya ate.”

"Even better in taste!"

"Really?" the Nian beast snorted. "I don't believe it."

"Look." Zhao Xing pulled out a pile of shiny, fragrant food, all of which he had taken from Rui Xuan. He hadn't returned these things to him.

"Gulp~" The Nian beast began to swallow its saliva, but remained motionless, maintaining its majesty.

Zhao Xing immediately understood. The Nian Beast had been so angry just now; how could it be appeased so easily?
I have to coax him a bit!

"Let me tell you a secret, the food Lu Ya ate was given to him by the Boundless God King, but what I took out here was looted by the God of Fortune. You know the God of Fortune, right? Those are all good things."

“I’m not being biased; this is a special gift for you.”

Upon hearing Zhao Xing's words, the Nian beast's anger immediately subsided by more than half.

Furthermore, tempted by the delicious food and exhausted from fighting, he stopped glaring at Zhao Xing and immediately began to feast.

But he was still angry with Lu Ya: "Cook, you can't give Lu Ya such delicious food, he's too bad."

Eating alone is definitely bad, isn't it? This is the worst thing Gu Xiao did besides lying to the Nian Beast Clan!

“Lu Ya isn’t trying to hog all the food.” Zhao Xing added, seeing the Nian beast starting to enjoy its meal. “He’s fighting for me outside, so you see, I should at least give him some.”

"So what? I can help you fight too. Isn't Lord Nian more powerful than that wicked duck?"

"Of course you're amazing," Zhao Xing coaxed.

"Hmph, even if you give it to him, it will only be leftovers. He'll never eat my leftovers again!"

Zhao Xing naturally agreed, since Lu Ya was going to leave anyway and couldn't stay by his side forever.

On the contrary, the Nian beast has not yet fulfilled even the first of the three requirements, and will have to follow him for a long time.

After finally managing to appease the Nian beast, Zhao Xing flew to the area of ​​the tree son.

At this moment, Hua Li Shen Jiang was still watching from the outer area.

"Senior Hua Li, how is it?"

"That's good," Hua Li said with a smile. "You're quite strong."

In reality, she could no longer discern any divine power; she could only instinctively sense that the Tree of Time was growing vigorously.

Among the guardian deities, Hua Li was arranged by Gu Luohe. In this area, there is not only the Time Tree, but also a box that Gu Luohe gave to him.

However, Zhao Xing didn't know what was inside the box.

He didn't open it to look at it, and he couldn't open it anyway.

The ancient Luo River said that when the time is right, it will naturally open.

After observing for a while, Zhao Xing left his inner world.

He first found Lu Ya and gave him a bunch of delicious food, and then he found Yan Ao and gave him some precious treasures, all of which were selected from the treasures of the God of Destiny and were very beneficial to the Qi Sect Martial God.

"I am very grateful that you have come at my invitation. These are just a few small gifts, nothing more. I will be at your service whenever you need me."

"Zhao Xing, now that the matter of Shenji City is settled, can you come back with us?" Lu Ya asked.

Yan Ao didn't ask. He was one of the more intelligent commanders among the Qi Sect Martial Gods, and he felt that Zhao Xing's words did not seem to indicate any intention to return.

"I still have some things to take care of, please go back first."

"Is it because Wuliang won't let you go?" Lu Ya said angrily. "How could he do this! I'll go find him... Never mind, I can't beat him. Yan Ao, you go."

Yan Ao: "..."

Can I just go and do it?

He didn't say much, but only instructed, "The battle of Shenji City has far-reaching consequences. Be careful when you're out there."

"Thank you for your concern, I will remember it." Zhao Xing nodded.

If he leaves Shenji City, he will inevitably be targeted by many people. Yan Ao is advising Zhao Xing not to run around recklessly, and that it would be best to return to the Desolate Region Era.

The following day, a passage was opened in Shenji City, leading to the tenth Yang year of the 342nd era before the Wilderness.

It wasn't in the Thousand Feathers Great World, but near the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom. For Lu Ya and Yan Ao, time was irrelevant. Being near the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom also saved them some travel time.

"Zhao Xing, we're going back now. When are you coming back?" Just before entering the portal, Lu Ya stood on Yan Ao's shoulder and turned to ask.

"When Shifang Mountain appears in the world, I will surely return."

"Remember to bring me some good food. Also, please apologize to the Nian beast for me. Just one apology. If he doesn't accept it, then forget it."

Zhao Xing smiled and opened his palm, which flashed with blue light. This was the world within the palm of the Divine King!
The miniature Nian beast, watching from the other side of the boundary, also heard these words.

"Duck, I heard you, I'll reluctantly forgive you..."

The Nian beast responded, but Lu Ya had already entered the passage, so it was unclear whether he heard it.

……

After seeing Lu Ya and Yan Ao off, Zhao Xing returned to Daoqinglu.

"Why aren't you leaving?" Lü Ming asked Qing Yuzi curiously.

"What would I do if I went back?" Qingyuzi said matter-of-factly. "I stayed in the Desolate Era and did nothing. I couldn't handle the Lord of Cold Food, and fighting some minor deities would be a waste of my talents."

"Of course, one needs to be sent abroad to truly demonstrate their abilities."

“I think your temple master thinks you’re a menace, that’s why he won’t let you go back,” Lü Ming joked.

"Your thinking is just jealousy of talented people, I won't argue with you."

Qingyuzi actually wanted to go back and visit, but he still had some things on his mind.

First, he wanted to learn "Fishing with One Line"; second, he was about to forget where the willow tree was, and if he went back to the desolate region with the flow of time, he would never remember it again.

"Whoosh~"

Zhao Xingfei went into the courtyard.

"When are you leaving?" The first thing Qingyuzi asked Zhao Xing when he was leaving was when he met him.

"Old Qing, you really can't stay idle. It's only been thirty years since the Battle of Shenji City ended."

"It is my nature. I have never been the kind of person who secludes himself to cultivate in seclusion." Qingyuzi said calmly, "Pursuing the Dao of Heaven and fighting with people, the Dao is endless, and so is the joy."

"To put it bluntly, he just can't sit still and loves to stir things up." Lü Ming broke Lao Qing's pretentious act. Over the past few decades, he had become very familiar with Qing Yuzi, and they got along very well.

The main reason is that Lü Ming has rarely been out, while Qing Yuzi has seen much and has a wealth of experience.

"I'll leave after I've mastered the spell," Zhao Xing replied.

"Where to?" Lü Ming asked.

"My first task is to resolve the misfortune that followed the use of the fishing line," Zhao Xing said. "The Boundless God King has arranged three locations for me."

"These three places are convenient for Heaven and Earth to prove the Dao, can help me cultivate the Heavenly Tribulation Method, and are beneficial to the Four Seasons Realm Gate."

"Oh? Places like this are quite rare." Qingyuzi's eyes lit up.

"You guessed it again?" Lü Ming asked in surprise.

“Of course.” Qingyuzi looked at Zhao Xing with bright eyes. “I have already roughly guessed two of the places.”

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "Oh? Then tell me about it."

Qingyuzi replied without hesitation: "The land where the Xuanhuang has not yet been broken, the time when the ancient sky hides the stars!"
