Chapter 235: The Head of the God King of God Kings

Qiao Feng had just organized his thoughts, saying he had found Pusi Snake near Xiangyang City and that it might be useful, but seeing such a scene, he swallowed his words back into his stomach and silently deleted everything he was going to say.

Luo Ji looked at the top-tier figures he had painstakingly built up, all of whom had mastered the Nine Yang Divine Art and possessed physical fitness far exceeding that of contemporary athletes.

Then he took another look: in the Chat Group, Zhang Xuan was living in the starry sky of the Universe, endless Star Power pouring into his body to be inhaled and exhaled, and terrifying, peerless lightning was shattered into a sky full of fine light rain by a single punch of his.

Endless hope suddenly ignited in his eyes.

"My path is not wrong; this is the path I want to take!"

Luo Ji whispered, and with the help of some data given to him by Qingdi, and then with the help of—the strength of the top powerhouses in the world where Fengyun Wuji resided was too great—he reproduced a portion of the technology from the Eternal Star Domain.

Things like Century Ginseng and Millennium Lingzhi could already be synthesized by collecting elements post-natally, allowing people to quickly refine top-tier pills like the Great Restoration Pill and Small Restoration Pill, the supreme arts of Shaolin and Wudang; a single pill could increase one's Internal Energy by sixty years.

He was already mass-producing top-tier experts; he even had some well-known scholars practice the Marrow Cleansing Scripture provided by Qiao Feng while in an unconscious state, telling them it was just simple gymnastics so they wouldn't practice with the intent of cultivation, and as a result, they succeeded the moment they learned it.

After all, the vast majority of people nowadays believe in science and do not believe in so-called martial arts, which directly aligned with the Buddhist philosophy, making their cultivation incredibly smooth.

At this stage, he had already begun to replicate and access the Opening Aperture Pill provided by Meng Qi, preparing for the transition from Martial Arts to Immortal Xia.

The current step was a rather critical and rather difficult one.

But the road ahead was hard to climb; even though technology clearly still had the possibility of progress, he had turned toward cultivation instead, which made Luo Ji feel very distressed at times, not knowing if what he was doing was right or wrong.

It wasn't until he saw this scene of Zhang Xuan displaying his power that he firmly solidified all the thoughts in his heart.

"What I am doing now is not wrong; technology has already been blocked by the Trisolaran, leading directly into a dead end, and there is simply no other path to take."

"Even if we make a breakthrough in current technology, it is merely circling within the established circle, a dojo inside a screw shell."

"If we want to truly carve out a path and let humanity walk in another direction, embarking on this path of cultivation is the most appropriate choice."

Luo Ji: 【@Zhang Xuan, is this the strength that can be displayed when cultivation reaches the Tier 5 level? It's too strong, it really makes one envious.】

Luo Ji was genuinely envious.

If he had Zhang Xuan's strength now, Earth's predicament would be broken immediately; after all, strength at the God level can already walk between the stars of the Universe, and any monitoring object would be perceived by them and then easily destroyed.

Luo Ji even suspected that reaching Zhang Xuan's level would allow one to directly pierce through a Sophon, or even interfere with and destroy a Sophon by relying on magic power.

Zhang Xuan: 【Don't be envious, I am currently in a great predicament myself. The Ancient Myriad Tribes have all awakened, and I am about to be besieged by a group of Ancestor Kings from the Ancient Race. If I don't make a breakthrough soon, or think of other ways, I'm afraid I'm going to be finished.】

Meng Qi: 【Has it already reached such a pressing point? But I remember the awakening of the Ancient Race shouldn't be this fast; how come you are already facing them now?】

Zhang Xuan: 【I don't want to either, maybe it's the butterfly effect; after I awakened, they followed suit. Now they have listed me as the number one wanted criminal, and my portrait is posted everywhere. I feel that if I don't think of a way, it's really going to be game over.】

Zhang Xuan was still very relaxed; after all, no matter what, he had Gai Jiuyou backing him up, so he wasn't panicked at all.

The reason he said this was mainly to play the victim.

If playing the victim succeeded and made Meng Qi willing to give him some help, for example, providing him with the Tenth-Turn Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid for free, or having Qingdi step forward to provide him with some top-tier items, he would be very happy.

Anyway, playing the victim doesn't cost anything.

As it turned out, Meng Qi fell into deep thought and hadn't given a response yet, when Fengyun Wuji suddenly popped up on the other side, and he was clearly very urgent and felt very empathetic.

Fengyun Wuji: 【Has the Human Race already reached such a dangerous point? With the current hiding and withering, are you the only one supporting it alone? Such an environment is indeed very painful.】

Having broken through to become the Sword Emperor, Fengyun Wuji felt truly empathetic and very painful upon hearing Zhang Xuan's words.

After all, he had already read the entire Ascension After and knew that later on, the entire Ancient Human Race basically relied on him alone to support it; he couldn't be more immersed in Zhang Xuan's current situation.

Fengyun Wuji: 【The Ancient Myriad Tribes are truly detestable; such a race should be beaten until they feel pain, made to tremble from the bottom of their hearts, and have their top-tier figures pulled down. Only then can they truly and genuinely coexist peacefully with my Human Race.】

Zhang Xuan was a bit confused; after all, in his view, Fengyun Wuji's current strength seemed to be only Tier 4 and had not yet reached Tier 5, so the help to him didn't seem very significant.

He only wanted help from Meng Qi and didn't expect Fengyun Wuji to be so agitated. Zhang Xuan was just about to say a few words to soothe Fengyun Wuji's emotions when Fengyun Wuji suddenly said.

Fengyun Wuji: 【Fellow Daoist seems to mainly practice the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art; actually, I do have a small method that might allow Fellow Daoist to make a rapid breakthrough.】

【Doesn't Fellow Daoist need the Origin of the most powerful creatures? When it comes to the strength of creatures, there is a type of creature in my world that is absolutely the most powerful under heaven. If you can extract its Origin and absorb a portion of it, your cultivation and strength will absolutely be able to rise to a higher level and turn the tide for the Human Race.】

Zhang Xuan: 【There is such a thing? How come I don't seem to have much of an impression of it?】

When Zhang Xuan asked this, he actually already had a bit of an ominous premonition in his heart, which was then immediately confirmed by Fengyun Wuji.

Fengyun Wuji: 【There is, there is. When it comes to strength, my world can be considered a Tier 11 or Tier 12 world, and there is a creature that is the most powerful in this world, and that is the Main God.】

【I have no way to touch the true Main Gods. Currently, if you add everyone in the Chat Group together, except for figures like the Group Owner and the Administrator, others basically cannot move them.】

【But I recently accidentally touched the head of the figure who was about to give birth to the God of Main Gods. If Fellow Daoist has a certain degree of confidence, I can bring Fellow Daoist near the head of that God King and let Fellow Daoist absorb a portion of the Origin from that God King...】

The corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth twitched wildly.

He knew this idea was extremely crazy, incredibly crazy; he was not unfamiliar with the God King Fengyun Wuji spoke of.

That was an existence that was originally supposed to be born under normal circumstances, become the controller of the Light and Dark Thirteen Main Gods, and become the true God King of God Kings.

If it had been born and existed normally, it would absolutely be the strongest among all the Main Gods.

As it turned out, the other party met with an accident; because it was too tyrannical and affected the balance of heaven and earth, its body shattered before it was fully gestated and evolved into the Ancient Human Race.

Only one head contained powerful resentment; it did not die, but was merely sealed within the Taigu.

This existence was absolutely the strongest figure; if he could eat its Origin, Zhang Xuan felt he could directly break through to the Saint King level, or perhaps even higher.

But the premise was being able to truly swallow the other party's Origin.

Rationally, Zhang Xuan felt that such a thing was simply impossible to do, but he had to admit that when Fengyun Wuji proposed this suggestion, his heart was indeed moved; he was a little tempted.

A supreme powerhouse of heaven and earth, a figure strong to the peak, and it was sealed, allowing one to extract its Origin at will.

The Di Shitian clan had been extracting the other party's Divine Power for cultivation for generations, although they were also corroded by the other party's Divine Power, leading to defects in their primordial spirits, and many died in obscurity.

But any figure who succeeded was a top-tier figure of heaven and earth; even Chiyou, who once made the entire Taigu extremely turbulent, was merely an ordinary little person in the Di Shitian clan back then.

One can imagine how formidable that God King's Divine Power was and how special its Origin was.

But after pondering for a long time, Zhang Xuan still struggled to refuse.

Zhang Xuan: 【My heart yearns for it, but my strength is insufficient.】

Zhang Xuan still had a sense of how much he was worth.

In the Zhetian World, a Saint can walk sideways in many regions at the current stage.

But even if one achieves the status of Great Emperor, it is not very realistic to go to the world of Ascension After and suck that God King's head dry.

Zhang Xuan felt that if one does not become an Immortal, there is absolutely no need to consider this aspect.

Fengyun Wuji: 【I think this is really doable, shouldn't you consider it carefully again?】

Zhang Xuan: 【I think this is really not doable, I still want to live a few more years, I can't do it, I really can't do it!】

The brief and pleasant interlude passed quickly; Fengyun Wuji was left with regret, while Zhang Xuan was left with relief.

Fortunately, just when Zhang Xuan was at his most awkward, Meng Qi, who had not been popping up much, finally jumped out.

Meng Qi: 【What happened? What happened? Brothers, I have finally returned to secular life openly, walked the world openly, and suppressed everyone to become number one on the Human Ranking, and now I have already achieved the Outer Scene.

【Hehe, cheer for me, I have finally managed to barely keep up with your pace.

【The cultivation experience of the senior Zhang Sanfeng is truly useful, and the insights given to me by Brother Zhang Xuan's breakthrough are also quite substantial...】

Meng Qi jumped out very excitedly; he was currently in the Imperial Capital, and under the gaze of many figures, he achieved the Outer Scene in one go, and it was a direct leap over the half-step Outer Scene, ascending to the sky in one step, shocking the entire Imperial Capital.

Famous throughout the world, he was simply in high spirits.

He felt that his life had reached its peak, feeling very comfortable and at ease.

Then he roughly looked at the Chat Group records, and the smile on his face instantly froze, then quickly disappeared.

Meng Qi: 【@Zhang Xuan, fellow countryman, you have already reached the Saint realm, and you are still considering breaking through to Saint King? You aren't kidding me, are you?

【Are you the protagonist or am I the protagonist? Clearly, we both have foreknowledge and understand all the plot points, why are you so heaven-defying?】

Meng Qi was on the verge of tears, feeling quite uncomfortable.

Fortunately, he was an optimist by nature, and without needing Zhang Xuan to explain, he consoled himself.

Meng Qi: 【Sigh, that's true, the arrangements in the Zhetian World are not as tight as the arrangements in my world.

【Even if I have foreknowledge, it is of no use against a group of people with foreknowledge; any Other Shore figure has foreknowledge of all situations. Knowing this stuff not only won't make me happy, but will instead make me more miserable.

【On the contrary, you, brother, in the Zhetian World, might have had a hard time in the early stages, but after getting the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art plus the Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid, it is understandable that you would advance by leaps and bounds.

【You can use foreknowledge on a large scale, and then swallow the strongest bloodlines and Origin. Sigh, it really makes people envious; how can the gap between people be so big.】

Meng Qi chattered on for a long time, and Zhang Xuan couldn't even get a word in. Only after Meng Qi finished venting his emotions did Zhang Xuan ask.

Zhang Xuan: 【@Meng Qi, fellow countryman, if you don't give me some help, I'm going to be finished here. The Ancient Myriad Tribes have all awakened, and I am about to be hunted down by a Great Saint. If you don't help me, I'll have to flee for my life.】

Meng Qi: 【Ah? But I don't have any good ideas either. Taishang Laojun has been very interested in the Tenth-Turn Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid recently and has been researching it. I suspect there might be a major breakthrough, but he won't tell me yet.

【After I broke through to the Outer Scene level, I have been getting more and more attention from Anan and other figures, and I don't have the time to run to the Thirty-Three Heavens outside the Journey to the West World at any time. I am powerless to help you even if I want to.】

Speaking of this, Meng Qi paused for a moment and suddenly said.

Meng Qi: 【By the way, aren't you cultivating the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art? If you want to break through quickly, wouldn't it be fine to absorb some more Origin?

【I remember that at this stage, after the Ancient Myriad Tribes awaken, in a few years, there will be a ship of Zhuang Zhou, an Ancient King's ship, sailing in the Universe, and not long after, it will be completely wiped out by the Old Madman, who will kill all the Ancestor Kings on the ship.

【There are not only ordinary Ancient Ancestor Kings on it, but also three Great Saints. If you swallow them, the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art should be able to make a major breakthrough, right?】

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan's heart couldn't help but stir.

This was indeed a very good suggestion. Of course, for the current Zhang Xuan, it was not that good, because the current Zhang Xuan wanted to be invincible at the same realm while also breaking through quickly.

This was simply a bit too greedy.

If it were just about swallowing the Origin of powerful figures, Zhang Xuan still had quite a lot of powerful figures' Origins in his hands; whether it was the Saint Body or the Origin of that Heavenly Court Lord, he hadn't even used them up yet.

What Zhang Xuan wanted was to be invincible in the world, both fast and steady.
