"Lord Sword Sage … Master …"
The group of Elders, Honn Shinsakura, Shiraishi Satomi, and company stood up and bowed. Although Sei Gasakai had already passed the position of Niten Flying Immortal Palace's Palatial Lord to Honn Shinsakura, just the name Sei Gasakai held extremely high prestige in the Niten Flying Immortal Palace and even overseas.
"Lord Sword Sage … You have to take care of this matter … You can't watch the Palatial Lord lead the Niten Flying Immortal Palace onto a path of no return because of his own selfishness …" The few Elders hurriedly recounted Honn Shinsakura's decision to lead the Niten Flying Immortal Palace to Guide Ancient City to Sei Gasakai, who had just returned.
Sei Gasakai waved his hand to stop the Elders from continuing. Then, he said, "Sakura is the Palace Lord of the Niten Flying Immortal Palace. He has the right to make any decision."
"But …" The Elders were anxious. They wanted to argue, but they were stopped by Sei Gasakai.
Sei Gasakai looked at the Elders and said indifferently, "Furthermore, I also believe that Sakura's decision is correct. Joining Guide Ancient City is far more correct than joining the six families."
The Elders never expected Sei Gasakai to say that. They were momentarily dumbfounded, unsure of what to say.
Sei Gasakai continued, "Just as Sakura said, back when we traveled to Luoyang, I was filled with ambition. I believed that my Sword Dao was enough to challenge Sunset College's Leng Zongzheng, but not long after I arrived in Luoyang, I encountered Zhou Wen. Back then, Zhou Wen was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but I lost to him. The reason why the Sword Dao I created is called the Niten Flying Immortal-ryū is because this Sword Dao was gained from Zhou Wen's Transcendent Flying Immortal. It can be said that Zhou Wen is my master. "
If these Elders hadn't believed Honn Shinsakura's words, they no longer had any doubts after hearing Sei Gasakai say it personally. All of them were tongue-tied, unable to say a word.
"Zhou Wen has extraordinary talent. With a pure human body, he has cultivated to an unparalleled realm. He's definitely not someone who relies on external forces to raise his strength in a short period of time. He will definitely shock the world in the future. Furthermore, there are many people under the six families. If we go now, we will only be one of them. Guide Ancient City was in need of manpower, so it was a good opportunity to head there. Sakura's thoughts are all for the sake of the Niten Flying Immortal Palace. She's not selfish at all. Everyone, don't be suspicious. "Sei Gasakai swept his gaze across the Elders' faces. The Elders could not help but lower their heads.
"We will listen to Palace Lord's instructions." The elders turned around and bowed to Honn Shinsakura.
Honn Shinsakura's expression remained unchanged. There were no ripples in his eyes. He still didn't take what had just happened to heart. His gaze was distant, as if the focus of his gaze was no longer in front of him.
"Zhou Wen, I'm coming. My sword will surprise you. Don't disappoint me!"
"Achoo!"
Zhou Wen, who was gaming on his phone, sneezed. After rubbing his nose, he continued focusing on the game.
In the game, the blood-colored avatar's entire body was enveloped by the crystal-like Chaos Egg. As for the golden light that shot out from the three-faced Buddha's eyes in the temple hall, it enveloped the entire Chaos Egg. The golden light penetrated the Chaos Egg and dyed it golden.
Now, the Chaos Egg had reached the peak of the Hell stage and was almost about to break through to the Heaven stage.
When the Chaos Egg at the Mortal stage was being beaten, it could convert the enemy's strength into Essence Energy Crystals. Furthermore, Essence Energy Crystals could be stacked. At most, 10,000 Essence Crystals could be stacked into one Essence Crystal.
The Chaos Egg at the Hell stage had an even greater increase in this stacking ability. The highest number of stacks reached a hundred million before it couldn't be increased any further.
With the Chaos Egg's current Essence Energy capacity, it could only last less than twenty seconds under the three-faced Buddha's golden light. Furthermore, no matter how the Chaos Egg was destroyed, it couldn't grow like before.
Zhou Wen clearly felt that the Chaos Egg was just a little short of breaking through to the Heaven stage, but for some reason, he felt that something was missing. It was difficult for him to truly enter the Heaven stage.
"What exactly is missing?" Seeing the game screen turn black again, he still didn't gain anything. The Chaos Egg didn't grow at all. He couldn't help but frown in thought.
Zhou Wen now knew very well that it was impossible to help the Chaos Egg advance to the Heaven stage by relying on mechanical suicidal cultivation. He had to figure out the key to advancing.
"I'm hungry."
As Zhou Wen was pondering, Demonic Neonate walked to Zhou Wen's side with the Demonic Sword in her arms. She looked up into Zhou Wen's eyes and said seriously.
"Hungry?" Zhou Wen was first taken aback. After snapping to his senses, he sized up Demonic Neonate in surprise.
Many Companion Beasts would be hungry. If they were hungry for too long, they might even dissipate. The most typical example was Tyrant Behemoth. If there was no food for an extended period of time, Tyrant Behemoth might starve to death.
It was only because Zhou Wen had the resources in the game dungeons and an Essence Energy Art like the Chaos Egg that could convert Essence Energy Crystals that he could nurture so many high-level Companion Beasts.
If it were any ordinary person, most of them would starve to death even if they were given a bunch of mythical pets.
However, Demonic Neonate was different. She was very picky. There were very few food that caught her eye. Even high-level Essence Crystals were beneath her notice. Even Calamity-grade Companion Eggs were beneath Demonic Neonate.
It could be said that Demonic Neonate ate the least among Zhou Wen's top Companion Beasts. Every time she ate, she would eat some strange things. She usually didn't eat, nor had he heard her say that she was hungry.
Now that Demonic Neonate had taken the initiative to say that she was hungry, Zhou Wen jumped in fright. This was because he didn't know if he had anything Demonic Neonate wanted to eat.
After carefully sizing up Demonic Neonate, she still looked the same. She looked like a cute and cold Spellswordsman girl. She wasn't much different from usual, but after taking a careful look, Zhou Wen realized that Demonic Neonate was indeed different.
Demonic Neonate's pupils usually looked black, but in fact, they weren't black. They were an extremely deep purple color, so thick that it made people mistake them for black.
However, Demonic Neonate's pupils had become very faint, turning into a grayish-purple color. The grayish-purple color gave off a feeling of decline and loneliness. If one looked at it for too long, they would feel as though they would be sucked in.
"Little Neonate, what do you want to eat?" Zhou Wen took out the high-level Companion Eggs, Essence Energy Crystals, and Origins he had collected and placed them on the bed for Demonic Neonate to choose.
Demonic Neonate swept her gaze across the items, but she only shook her head slightly. Zhou Wen took out many more items, but they were similarly rejected by Demonic Neonate.
Could it be that I can only use Little Neonate's food reserves? Zhou Wen rummaged through his belongings, but he didn't find anything that Demonic Neonate wanted to eat. He couldn't help but think of Grim Demon.
When Demonic Neonate saw Zhou Wen's eyes darting around her demonic sword, she immediately understood what Zhou Wen was thinking. She shook her head and said, "It's not enough."
Unfortunately, Grim Demon couldn't sense the situation outside without unsheathing the demonic sword. Otherwise, he would probably fight Zhou Wen to the death.
