Chapter 1393: Dantai Lan's Experience in the Wang Hou Battlefield
"Don't rush, one at a time."
Faced with Li Luo's barrage of questions, Dantai Lan couldn't help but laugh. She pulled the two of them to sit beside her, and seeing the curiosity on the two children's faces, a tender look inevitably rose in her eyes.
In the Wang Hou battlefield, fighting never ceased—there was no leisure to experience warmth.
"First, let's talk about this Grand Unique Marquis question..."
Dantai Lan said with a light laugh, "Actually, it's not just me who's a Grand Unique Marquis—Taixuan is also at Suan Shi Jiu Pin Ban Jing Zhong Jie now."
"Dad is also a Grand Unique Marquis?!"
Both Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge were utterly shocked. If that was the case, then their family already had two Unique Marquises in one household? What an illustrious foundation!
Looking across the entire Outer Shenzhou, in the past thousand years, there probably wasn't a single family that had achieved such a feat, right?
Li Luo felt he could walk sideways across the Outer Shenzhou from now on.
After being stunned for several breaths, Li Luo couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "I remember Father and Mother weren't both at Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms back then, right?"
In his memory, back when they were in Daxia, Li Taixuan and Dantai Lan had revealed their Marquis Platforms, but they weren't all Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms.
"Back then in Daxia, after all, we were outsiders, so it wasn't appropriate to reveal our full strength. Therefore, apart from Pang Pang Qianyuan, the other Marquis-level powerhouses of Daxia couldn't probe our true strength."
"And the Marquis Platforms we revealed were also somewhat concealed."
"Of course, as you said, even without concealment, our foundation back then hadn't reached the stage of fully casting Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms."
"On this point, you two little ones actually started from a higher point than us." Dantai Lan looked at the two of them with a gratified smile in her eyes.
"Father and Mother encountered a great opportunity in the Wang Hou battlefield that made up for the flaws in their former foundations?" Jiang Jiang Qinge suddenly spoke up from the side.
"Little E is so smart." Dantai Lan smiled and pinched Jiang Jiang Qinge's tender, exquisitely beautiful cheeks.
"The Wang Hou battlefield is incomparably dangerous, but it also contains unimaginable great opportunities. Things that seem impossible in the outside world are not uncommon in the Wang Hou battlefield."
"In these years, Taixuan and I have advanced and retreated together in the Wang Hou battlefield, countless times teetering on the brink of life and death. On one occasion, we were forced into a desperate situation by three Otherkind Kings and fell into a spatial rift. There, the remains of an ancient King floated about, and on those remains, a wondrous fruit had grown."
"The two of us took the initiative to destroy those previously flawed Marquis Platforms, and with the help of the divine fruit, we broke through and rebuilt, thus completing our foundations."
"After that, we used this to break through to Unique Marquis, and slew all three of those One-Crown Otherkind Kings."
Listening to Dantai Lan's account, both Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge were shaken to the core. Although the former spoke simply, within those few words, one could sense the extreme danger contained within.
At that time, they hadn't yet achieved Unique Marquis, yet they were being hunted by three Otherkind Kings. What a terrifying thing that was. It was only because the two worked together with extraordinary foundations—otherwise, for ordinary Marquis-level powerhouses, even a Nine-Rank Marquis would likely have been doomed.
As for shattering one's own Marquis Platforms, that required courage beyond words.
Because this was an extremely dangerous act—one misstep, and one's foundation would be completely shattered, making it difficult to advance further in this lifetime, let alone break through and rebuild.
Throughout the ages, countless Marquis-level powerhouses had done this, but eight or nine out of ten only managed to break, never to rebuild.
However, being able to find that spatial rift hiding the King's remains in a desperate situation—Li Taixuan and Dantai Lan truly had profound good fortune.
This Wang Hou battlefield was indeed the most wondrous place under heaven, with the great opportunities hidden within it being utterly captivating.
"Mother, what exactly is the Wang Hou battlefield?" Jiang Jiang Qinge asked, a gleam flowing through her eyes, clearly having developed an interest in this place.
Now she had already embarked on the path of the Unique, but if she truly wanted to achieve Unique Marquis, she still had a very long road ahead.
Although her talent and foundation were stronger than Dantai Lan and Li Taixuan at the same stage, achieving the Unique still required the aid of opportunity.
"The Wang Hou battlefield is the collision point between our world and the Dark World. You can think of it as the foremost frontline where the two worlds meet. There, the most dangerous environment under heaven exists—some of the destructive calamities there, even ordinary King-level powerhouses dare not touch."
"It is the most ancient place under heaven, containing countless secrets. Therefore, even the Otherkind attempt to erode it completely." Dantai Lan said slowly, her expression Solemn.
Then she looked at Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge and said, "Now that you've grown up and walked your own path of the Unique, in the future you will certainly go there—to contend with heaven, to battle the Otherkind, and to seek the ultimate path."
Li Luo nodded slightly and asked again, "Then what about Father? He broke through to Grand Unique Marquis, why didn't he come back? If he had come back with you this time, that Qin Jiujie wouldn't have escaped either!"
Speaking of this, Dantai Lan's smile slightly faded.
Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge saw this and their hearts immediately jumped. They hurriedly asked, "Did something happen to Father?"
"Not quite yet."
Dantai Lan quickly reassured the two little ones, saying, "Previously, for the sake of a great opportunity, your Father and I joined forces to ambush and kill a Three-Crown Otherkind King. Just as we were about to obliterate it, we attracted a Great Demon King."
Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge exchanged a glance, both seeing the horror in each other's eyes.
These two were really courting death!
They actually went to ambush a Three-Crown Otherkind King! And almost succeeded!
And a Great Demon King...
Li Luo looked up toward the end of the sky of the Boundary River Domain. At the void of the Boundary River, the petrified giant eye of the Three-Pupil Fetal Origin Great Demon King still watched the Boundary River Domain with an eerie, cold gaze, bringing boundless terror to this realm.
This Three-Pupil Fetal Origin Great Demon King hadn't fully descended yet, yet it caused such massive casualties to the Boundary River Domain. In the end, even his grandfather Li Li Jingzhe was forced to self-immolate his King's Crown to destroy that human fetus.
Yet Dantai Lan and Li Taixuan faced a Great Demon King head-on in the Wang Hou battlefield.
Just thinking about that scene made Li Luo's scalp tingle.
He usually felt his own courage wasn't small, but compared to Father and Mother, it was simply a minor sorcerer before a great one.
"Then what happened?" Li Luo asked, his mouth dry.
"Then of course we started running. That Great Demon King pursued us relentlessly for a long time. In the end, Taixuan and I hid in a Void Abyss, where shattered heaven and earth formed barriers—even a Great Demon King couldn't pass through easily for a time."
"In the end, that Great Demon King sealed off that Void Abyss, summoned demonic flames, and planned to refine those shattered heaven and earth along with it."
"At that time, I used my Space Aspect to detect an extremely unstable tributary of the Boundary River within that Void Abyss. This tributary was too chaotic to bear your Father, but because I possessed the Space Aspect, I could barely swim across the undercurrent."
"My intention was to stay with him, but your Father—usually obedient to me in everything—turned as hard as a smelly rock at that moment."
"He told me to escape through this Boundary River tributary first, then bring reinforcements back to help him out of trouble."
"We argued for a long time. In the end, with no choice, I borrowed that Boundary River tributary to come out. As a result, I inexplicably traversed to the Boundary River here in the Boundary River Domain. At that time, your grandfather and I sensed each other. Afterwards, he used the power of his self-immolated King's Crown to shatter a section of the Boundary River barrier, and I took the chance to come out."
Dantai Lan recounted this turbulent, extremely dangerous process in one breath.
Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge listened with drastically changing expressions.
"Then what happened to Father?!"
