"Refining the Cypreus Furnace …"
Xiao Chen could vaguely hear such a voice. It was faintly discernible, intermittent and continuous. In this quiet night, it seemed especially indistinct.
A dark cloud drifted past, blocking the light of the moon and stars, casting the stone forest into darkness. Huge stone pillars towered not far away, like giants. The vague silhouettes and tall shadows seemed somewhat heavy and gloomy.
There was no wind or ripple. Xiao Chen heard the indistinct voice again, but it was hard to capture it clearly. He was unable to discern what it meant.
"Heaven … Hell …"
Finally, he heard a few more words. Xiao Chen felt his heart thumping hard. Who was speaking? It was definitely not an ordinary person! The topic of discussion seemed to involve a taboo secret. How could an ordinary person participate?
Xiao Chen urgently wanted to know who was speaking, but he did not dare to move, fearing that he would startle the speaker. He carefully released his divine sense to search, but he did not capture anything. There seemed to be a layer of mysterious mist shrouding this place. The divine sense that was sent out was like a clay ox entering the sea.
Who was it? Who was it? Why was it talking about such a taboo topic?
The moment Xiao Chen was about to stand up, he suddenly saw something. Following that, it became slightly clearer. In front of him, under this towering stone tree, two old men were sitting on the ground. Although their figures were indistinct, he could vaguely make out that they were two white-haired old men. One was incomparably dignified, the other extremely benevolent.
It was them, they were the ones talking!
They were only a few feet away from Xiao Chen!
Too strange. This kind of feeling made Xiao Chen feel very strange. It seemed to be very close. As if it was thousands of miles away. It was clearly very close. But it felt like they had crossed half of the starry sky.
Could it be that they did not see that there was someone beside them? Xiao Chen felt that the old man did not even look at him. It was as if he was treated as an ordinary grass, wood, or mountain rock.
"Youchao …"
He heard two more words clearly. One old man called the other old man this way. This startled Xiao Chen so much that he nearly let out a gasp.
Youchao … Didn't that mean that the person in front of him was an ancestor god? An ancestor god that was very close.
"Suirenshi …"
The other old man spat out three words. Xiao Chen also caught it. It was actually … Suirenshi!
Xiao Chen felt his blood boil. His blood flowed rapidly. The two sitting in front of him were … two ancestor gods?
This was simply unimaginable!
"Human Realm …"
Xiao Chen was very anxious. The two Ancestor Gods were not far away from him. They seemed to be discussing some important secret. However, he could only vaguely hear a few words. Every time it reached the crucial moment, the conversation would suddenly stop. This made him wish he could go closer to the two Ancestor Gods. Listen clearly.
However, it was useless for him to be anxious. He couldn't hear anything clearly. So close, yet so far.
"Nine Stone Golems …"
These four words caused Xiao Chen's heart to palpitate. However, the result was obvious; he still did not hear the exact words clearly.
Impatience!
Xiao Chen wished he could immediately take action and charge over.
The Ancestor God should have long discovered him when he was only a few feet away. Why did this happen? Was she deliberately ignoring him so that he couldn't hear clearly?
At this moment, the two blurry figures appeared. Xiao Chen could clearly see Ancestor Gods Youchaoshi and Suirenshi sitting cross-legged opposite each other. Even the expression on their faces seemed to be clearer. It was no longer just a hazy solemn and benevolent expression.
And it was also at this moment that Xiao Chen realized the two of them moved. The dignified Ancestor God Youchaoshi opened his right hand. A few items appeared in his palm. A stone dagger, a stone orb, and a broken arm. Weren't those the Ancestor God's treasures in Tianluo Nation's Nest Palace? Why did they appear here again?
Xiao Chen clearly knew that the Tongtian Sect Leader took away the stone orb and the Martial Sage Sun Wu took away the stone dagger. As for the broken arm, he obtained it. It was currently inside his body. He hurriedly looked inside and discovered that the broken stone golem was quietly sitting cross-legged inside his body. It held the stone diamond in its hand like a wooden sculpture. It was motionless.
And at this moment. The benevolent Ancestor God Suirenshi also opened his palm. The stone diamond, the stone golem's left leg, the stone golem's right leg … All of them appeared in his palm.
Xiao Chen suddenly came to a realization. The Ancestor God was indeed in front of him. However, it wasn't a real figure. Instead, it was an illusion from countless years ago that was left here. It was preserved forever and would reappear in front of him at a specific time.
This couldn't be considered a supernatural event. In special places like ancient castles and underground tombs, if the surrounding scenery didn't change, the historical illusion could be reproduced under a specific environment. It was the surrounding environment that clearly recorded the scene of the past.
He was no longer anxious. He slowly calmed down and looked at the illusion of the Ancestor God quietly. The two Ancestor Gods sat there quietly and didn't speak anymore. The scene immediately quieted down.
As time passed, Xiao Chen suddenly felt that this place was harmonious and peaceful. The space where the two Ancestor Gods were at seemed to be rippling with a calming aura. It made people involuntarily calm down.
No, it wasn't caused by the Ancestor God's aura. It was caused by their calm and natural posture.
The natural and peaceful Dao!
Just at this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly had a realization. The harmonious and peaceful Dao of nature alerted him.
Recently, he had been pursuing cultivation speed too much. More haste, less speed. In the Fuxi Clan's ruins, he comprehended and created the Eightfold World. Now that he came to the meditation place of Ancestor God Suirenshi, he also hoped to reap some benefits. Although he didn't have the mentality that he would definitely reap some benefits, he was looking forward to it in his heart. This … had already fallen into the wrong path.
It went against the Dao of nature.
There wasn't any fortuitous encounter this time, but Xiao Chen's state of mind suddenly calmed down. He was no longer restless. At this moment, his state of mind was peaceful and natural.
However, was that really the case? Was the Ancestor God's Dao of nature definitely correct? He had doubts in his heart. Perhaps, it wasn't necessarily suitable for him …
In front, the calm and peaceful silhouette of the two Ancestor Gods seemed to be slowly imprinting itself on his heart. Two light silhouettes were slowly approaching.
The latter half of the night was very quiet. The Ancestor God's silhouette was reflected in Xiao Chen's heart. He experienced peace and nature.
Early in the morning, the sunlight sprinkled down. Xiao Chen opened his eyes. A few green leaves came from an unknown place and gently fell into the stone forest.
Xiao Chen stood up and faced the morning sun. Then, he stretched out his hands. Catching two falling leaves, under the reflection of the morning glow, it was as if he was a child. The two green leaves were verdant and flickered with a jade-like glow. Xiao Chen stared at them carefully, not saying anything for a long time.
The two seemingly identical green leaves were actually quite different upon closer inspection. There were no two identical green leaves in this world, so naturally, there were no identical cultivation experiences. Although Xiao Chen was enlightened by the Ancestor God's Realm of Nature, it was impossible for him to truly walk the Ancestor God's Dao of Nature. At this moment, the two Ancestor Gods' figures slowly faded from his mind until they completely disappeared.
Xiao Chen had completely erased them from their hearts!
He could walk the Dao of others and experience it, but the true Dao was under his own feet. That was his own Dao.
A gentle breeze blew and the morning sun shone brilliantly. He gently raised his hands. Two emerald green leaves fluttered like butterflies before finally falling to the ground.
Under the morning glow, Xiao Chen's body flickered with specks of radiance. He looked so natural and harmonious, as if he had already blended into this world, becoming an inseparable part of it. It was as if he had already become indistinguishable from the surrounding stone forest and huge trees, as if he had become one with them. A green leaf condensed between his hands and flickered with a faint green light. Then, it fluttered in the air and suddenly shattered, turning into a blazing divine light that soared into the sky. The nearby residents were all incomparably shocked.
In a short moment, the green light that soared into the sky suddenly faded away. It fell straight down from the sky and entered Xiao Chen's body.
That was his one and only "green leaf" sprouting in the treasure house of his body. It had taken form in his sea of consciousness. Now, it had taken form. The leaf turned into a clear Qi and entered his body. It made the two Ancestor Gods and the two green leaves completely disappear from his heart.
Xiao Chen woke up from the wondrous Profound Realm. The mountain was still the same mountain, the clouds were still the same clouds. Everything was the same, nothing had changed. There was nothing wrong with bitter cultivation and rapid progress.
After meditating for nine days, he gained enlightenment in one day. This kind of wondrous realm that could only be understood but not explained in words made Xiao Chen only laugh out loud in the end. He was still the Xiao Chen from before. He walked out of the stone forest with large strides.
The golden multicolored light sprinkled on his body. It was as if there was a faint flowing radiance emitting from his body. There was an indescribable peculiar temperament.
All of this was because Xiao Chen made another breakthrough. He advanced from the Sixth Celestial Layer to the Seventh Celestial Layer. His body and spiritual sense were naturally different from before.
Long before this, Xiao Chen's spiritual level had already broken through to the Seventh Celestial Layer. This time, after meditating for nine days in the remnant of the Ancestor God of Youchao, he finally gained enlightenment and advanced to the Seventh Celestial Layer.
His body became even more valiant. His skin flickered with a sparkling luster. His first divine ability, Weapon Refining Body Fusion, advanced by several levels. This was a divine ability that was directly linked to his body. Every time his body became stronger, the might of Weapon Refining Body Fusion would increase exponentially.
Furthermore, his spiritual sense became even more condensed. The Eightfold World emerged and became even clearer. As if it was the real world, it also underwent a transformation.
Afterimages appeared one after another. All kinds of hand seals that were close to divine arts were also more condensed. Their might had increased by a lot.
This made Xiao Chen feel a hundred times more confident. He felt as if he could shake a demigod by himself!
Xiao Chen knew that the strongest experts of the major religions must have already arrived at Yindu. Most likely, they had already started to fight with the outstanding young experts of the Shang Dynasty.
As if he was taking a leisurely stroll in the courtyard, he was already several streets away with just one step. He didn't want to miss this opportunity. He wanted to see just how powerful those of his age had become. If the people from the Tiger Clan came, he was prepared to fight to his heart's content and then retreat.
The clash between the strongest young experts of the two empires had already begun. This time, it was not held in the military camp outside the city. Instead, it was held in the royal garden inside the city. There was a huge training field inside, it was more than enough for the young experts to display their skills.
This was definitely a distinguished meeting. This was an intense clash between the young generation. It was the first showdown between the strongest of the two empires in the future. Some people were destined to shake the world in this distinguished meeting.
As a result, all the people with some status in Yindu City rushed to this royal garden. They wanted to watch this fierce battle between giants.
In response to the request of the outside world, the royal garden was open to everyone. As long as they paid a certain amount of gold coins, even the commoners could go to the training field to watch the battle.
On this day, this huge training field in the royal garden was packed with people. There were at least several tens of thousands of people who had rushed here.
Among them, there were military officers, experts from Yindu's aristocratic families, and even more outstanding youths from all over the immortal's mainland. The older generation experts, of course, there were also nobles who didn't know how to practice, as well as ordinary people who came purely to watch the show.
Yan Qingcheng, Frosty, and the third princess Yinying sat together. Lazio, Windfeathers, Tenvis, and Aqua who hadn't seen each other for a long time also showed up.
Even that Solitary Sword Demon of few words also came to the scene.
On the other side. Bosch, Chen Hangjin, and a few other royal families gathered around them. Chu Hangkuang, Yanzhangkong, and the rest of the four experts of Yindu were even more gathered together. Their popularity was unimaginable. That area was already extremely crowded, no one could pass through it anymore.
Just the fact that these four experts had reunited was already a sensational piece of news.
Of course, although they were all among the strongest, they were definitely not the so-called "number one". The four experts were currently searching among the crowd. That was because they knew those few people from the legends must have arrived.
As for the Roman Empire's side, their momentum was even greater. Five hundred Solar Knights arrived at the scene riding on their beasts. They surrounded the experts and important personnel of the major religions at the outermost perimeter, giving them a relatively quiet and spacious area. Although they couldn't see the top experts of the major religions, just the beasts at the outermost perimeter were enough to make people apprehensive.
Each and every one of the beasts were huge monsters. There were winged leopards, nine-headed pythons, huge eagles overflowing with colorful lights … Their murderous aura was awe-inspiring.
Oxman swung his pair of huge bull horns. He was incomparably gloomy while standing in the crowd, because he saw Windfeathers who was not far away from the third princess. That guy actually … obtained the Horse King's Soul!
With the Ox King's keen intuition, the little fatty was incomparably gloomy. The little fatty sensed the abnormality at the first moment. After careful observation, he discovered the source of the problem. The legendary Ox-head and Horse-face had gathered. They sensed each other and discovered each other's existence.
What made the little fatty Oxman extremely furious was that Windfeathers didn't have the slightest sign of "Horse-face". He looked no different from an ordinary person. How could he be as "eye-catching" and eye-catching as him?
In the crowd on the other side, an incomparably wretched guy was rubbing against a group of noble ladies. He kept on swaying there in a very annoying manner.
A noble lady glared at him angrily and said, "Who are you? Why are you moving back and forth, trying to take advantage of us? "
"That's right, look at his peach blossom eyes. They haven't left us even until now."
"Despicable. Quickly go away. "
High … noble lady. I'm … i-i-i-i'm … the legendary … guardian … guardian … guardian … guardian of the flower. Th-th-this … there are hoodlums nearby. See … see … see? "
Speaking of this. The vulgar man pointed at Oxman, who was not far away, and said, "That … that guy's eyes are shining with a thieving light, and his head is swaying around. That … that … that … that is a perverted … perverted … hoodlum bull!"
Then, he turned his finger and pointed at the Solitary Sword Demon in another direction, and said, "Look, look … Do you see that guy? Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't … don't just look at how cool he looks, he's … he's a cold-faced pervert! His methods are extremely cruel and violent. "
"And, and, and … and that scar-faced guy."
Speaking up to this point, the wretched man pointed at Bosch and said, "This, this, this … this is definitely a human … a beast with a human face … a demon king of sex! People in the industry call him … call … call him the Second Baldy Lecher King. He's definitely a five-star dangerous character. "
"There's also … also that pretty boy … he was still wetting his bed when he was ten years old, and he had already started doing evil. He especially … especially targeted little girls. People called him … called him … the jade-faced pervert!"
"Go to hell, you rogue!"
A girl threw the pile of snacks in her hand at the wretched man's face.
"You rogue, you're still slandering others. You're the one who looks like a bad guy the most!"
"Beat him up!"
A group of women surrounded the wretched man and ruthlessly ravaged him.
The wretched man was like a fish in the water, very slippery. While dodging, he stuttered as he tried to explain, "I'm wronged … wronged! I … I … I really came to catch the rogue. That … that guy is called Torty. He's a smelly, smelly … smelly rogue. He's … definitely a dangerous character. "
"Roar …"
A few long roars transmitted over, causing the noisy martial arts field to immediately quiet down. A few huge white tigers flew across the sky and landed among the crowd.
