Chapter 1118: We can be siblings!
The ancient world had day and night cycles, and the sky gradually grew dark.
The night lasted six hours, passing relatively quickly.
Xiao Feng slept soundly, deep sleep, his spirit recovered quickly.
Everyone stayed around, not going elsewhere, waiting for him for several hours.
Only when the sky was about to lighten did he wake up, sitting up somewhat dazedly and asking, "How long did I sleep?"
"Senior, you're awake! You've already slept for almost six hours!" Dun Dun ran over, saying, and helped him up.
"That long, no wonder my back hurts; this floor is really hard." Xiao Feng rubbed his back muscles, looking quite injured.
"Hahaha, if you wanted to sleep on a girl's lap, just say it—there's no setting for back pain in the game!" Chu Long bluntly exposed his little thought.
Xiao Feng's old face turned red, but he absolutely refused to admit it, directly changing the subject: "Did any fighting happen during these hours?"
Li Li said: "Nothing, it's very quiet—only a few teams passed through the air, not noticing us. This ancient world is huge; everyone's flying in the sky, just find any spot to duck into and nobody can find you."
"Hmm."
Xiao Feng deeply felt this.
Players' builds are generally within two meters; some clans are a bit taller, reaching four or five meters, but that's it—compared to a forest of trees, it's utterly trivial.
In this vast world, hiding is indeed very simple; perhaps during the finals some players of certain clans will play the 'hide-and-seek' tactic, hiding until everyone else is dead.
Xiao Feng checked the event time—there were still 25 days left, and the next 15 days could still be used to gather resources, preparing for the final 10 days of the finals.
"Let's go treasure hunting; if we encounter treasure or monsters along the way, we'll handle them on the spot." Xiao Feng proposed.
After killing the primordial nine-tailed fox earlier, its five loot items automatically went into the shared backpack, and everyone could see the item information.
Only the team leader position was locked to Xiao Feng; others had no permission to take items out.
"Great, an Ancestral God–level boss—the treasure should be rich; we definitely have to go this time!" Li Li said enthusiastically.
Zhang Fan shook his head: "The treasure probably isn't that good; judging from before, the primordial nine-tailed fox likely broke through its realm temporarily in the Withering Capital, entering the Ancestral God level. Its treasure should merely be a peak God King–level collection."
"That's true, but it's still not bad." Xiao Feng expressed agreement.
When the primordial nine-tailed fox was dying, it said a few words: it had just stepped into the Ancestral God realm, had not yet begun 'Enlightenment,' and had not found its mother.
"'Enlightenment' is probably a high-end play for Ancestral God level, the same as the 'Enlightenment of Law' for Supreme God level."
Supreme Gods and God Kings use the power of laws, while Ancestral Gods use the power of the 'Dao'.
The nine-tailed fox, upon first entering the Ancestral God realm, had not yet undergone Enlightenment, so its strength is actually considerably weaker than that of a true Ancestral God.
If one were to encounter a true Ancestral God in the outside world, even with all the buffs Xiao Feng has—numerous and strong—he would absolutely be unable to defeat it.
"Let's go; first let's check the area indicated by the treasure map." Xiao Feng took out the treasure map and used it.
The system automatically popped up a compass, just like treasure hunting in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, indicating a direction.
The direction was due west, exactly toward the center of the big world map.
Xiao Feng summoned the Da Bai he had kept hidden for several days, leapt onto its back, and flew on the crane, no longer sword-flying.
Enough showing off; now it's time for serious training—Old Driver Da Bai still has some use!
"Ga! Xiao Feng, you stinky bastard, you locked me up for five days, full five days!"
"Do you know how I spent these five days? Ga?"
"I'm furious, really furious!"
As soon as Da Bai came out, it started cursing.
Everyone in the squad knew Xiao Feng's mount could talk, and thought nothing strange of it.
The viewers in the live stream were very surprised—no one expected the game's transportation tool to be this intelligent, even having little emotions!
"Tsk, giving you a few days' rest and you're still dissatisfied—this world is dangerous; I kept you away because I feared you'd die." Xiao Feng said earnestly.
"Hah! I don't believe it—unless you feed me Golden Immortal meat, I'll never forgive you!" Da Bai shouted, not easily appeased.
Xiao Feng chuckled: "You'll be disappointed then—although I just killed an Ancestral God today, its corpse can't be obtained; it was wiped clean."
"Ga?"
Da Bai blinked, then exclaimed: "You really killed a Golden Immortal? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"It's true—if you don't believe me, look at this."
Xiao Feng took out the 【Ancestral God's Blood】 and showed it to Da Bai.
Da Bai let out a sharp bird call.
"Ahhh!"
"It really is the aura of Golden Immortal–level essence blood—so overbearing, so domineering; give it to me, give me a sip quick!"
This big bird flapped its wings excitedly, wildly circling in the air.
Xiao Feng almost got thrown off, angrily thumped the crane's neck, and said: "What are you thinking? This thing merely improves constitution, making it easier to enter the God King realm as a refined essence. You, a proud seventh‑grade spirit beast, can already step into the God King realm—why would you need this?"
"It's delicious—this is Golden Immortal blood; drink a sip for eternal life, two sips to become an immortal right where you stand!" Da Bai pleaded.
Too bad he couldn't be persuaded.
Xiao Feng said: "This stuff is more useful for Old Li and Miaojie; I'll store it first in my Grand Void Ring. Whichever of you two first reaches the peak stage of upper‑level Supreme God gets to use it."
That remark was aimed at Li Li and Xing Yun Miao.
The 【Ancestral God's Blood】 is precious—no doubt about it.
However, there's only one portion, not easy to split, so we can only let the two race for it.
Furthermore, by the time the two are close to the God King realm, Xiao Feng estimates he'll have re‑cultivated to God King himself, able to beat an Ancestral God, possibly obtaining more Ancestral God's Blood—so allocation won't be a worry.
"Damn it, I treated you as a brother, yet you won't give me the good stuff—from now on we're not brothers, we're severed!" Da Bai, having received no treasure, let out a resentful sound.
Xiao Feng knew this silly bird was just showing off, not really wanting it, so he ignored it.
After a while, he recalled something and said: "Hey Da Bai, have you heard of the strange beast nine‑tailed fox?"
The primordial nine‑tailed fox, before dying, mentioned its mother—it seems there's some hidden plot that wasn't triggered.
The mother of the Ancestor God, without a doubt at least is of Ancestor God level, and possibly even a Venerable!
This plot is still worth digging into.
I just don't know if the Primeval World and the outside world have any connection; if they are completely independent instances, then there's no way to link them to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield.
"Don't call me Da Bai, Da Bai is already dead!" The immortal crane was still sulking at him, becoming more and more tsundere, hard to coax.
Xiao Feng knew this stupid bird's temperament well, threw out bait: "Speak nicely, and later I'll treat you to a Mahayana Stage snake gallbladder."
"Mahayana Stage! Really?"
Upon hearing that, Da Bai immediately fawned: "Big brother, you'll always be my good brother! Nine-tailed Fox and such, I've definitely heard of it, renowned like thunder!"
"Hah, aren't we not brothers anymore?" Xiao Feng said with a smile.
Da Bai instantly replied: "Yeah, we're not brothers anymore; we can be brother and sister! I can be the sister!"
Xiao Feng:...
Everyone:...
