Chapter 1458

"Uh... it's not that I'm bored, I just want to ask my senior for some information." Xiao Feng explained.

Xuan Die said: "Go ahead and speak." His tone was very casual, without any airs of an expert.

Xiao Feng smoothed his thoughts, then said: "Over the past few days of cultivation, I feel that the speed of increasing my willpower is very slow; to break through to the God King Realm I would still need a hundred years. So I wondered, are there any similar Purple Gold Divine Sense Pills, but even stronger divine medicines, that I could take to enhance myself? You said the Purple Gold Divine Sense Pill was refined by the Hidden Mystic Venerable of Star Realm Mountain; may I go find that senior to obtain some?"

Xuan Die heard this and slightly shook his head: "Don't always think of using external objects to boost yourself, especially regarding willpower. You should know that cultivation is inherently a long and lonely endeavor; taking shortcuts comes at a cost."

"This... but a hundred years of tempering is too long, right?" Xiao Feng knew the Monster Emperor's words made sense, but he still found it hard to accept the setting that it would take a hundred years to reach the God King Realm.

Even if he were reborn at level 999 and cultivated again, it probably wouldn't take that long!

Xuan Die said helplessly: "Is a hundred years considered long? Have you risen too quickly and addled your own mind?"

"Uh, I..."

"Do you know how many years I have cultivated?"

Xiao Feng asked: "Tens of thousands of years? Or several hundred thousand years?"

"Hmm, 140,000 years. If you think my realm is high, then compare the God King Realm to yourself. The youngest God King on Little Jianmu is named Ou Li; he has cultivated for seven thousand three hundred years so far, and his talent ranks among the top three in Myriad Phenomena Forest. Compared to him, do you still think a hundred years is long?"

The Monster Emperor gave a calm lecture.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but wryly smile: "But I'm human, living in a world where the maximum lifespan is only about a hundred years. In my impression, a hundred years is already the inheritance of five generations, or the life of a long-lived elder..."

"So what you need is to adapt to the life of the strong, rather than lament that cultivation is too long." Xuan Die lectured again.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng fell silent.

Xuan Die's words made sense; a God King is roughly equivalent to a ruler, and reaching this step in a hundred years is extremely fast.

He simply hadn't quite adapted yet, which is why he felt it was a long time.

"I will gradually adapt to it." Xiao Feng sighed.

He then continued to ask Xuan Die: "However, regarding the pills of Star Realm Mountain... I still want to ask my senior to clarify."

Xuan Die replied: "There are indeed pills that enhance willpower, but those more precious than the Purple Gold Divine Sense Pill are treasures hoarded by the Hidden Mystic Venerable; even I cannot obtain them. If you truly want to get them, go find him yourself. As fellow humans, he might be more lenient with you."

The three great venerables of Star Realm Mountain are all human NPCs; the Hidden Mystic Venerable excels at alchemy, the Hidden Spirit Venerable excels at teaching disciples, and the Hidden Void Venerable excels at spatial secret art; these are no secrets, and many people know them.

Earlier, Xiao Feng had once accepted a task from the Flame Monarch of the Fire Element in the Yuan Su Shen Yu, requiring a 【Nine-Revolutions Returning Soul Pill】 to revive the Flame Monarch's mother.

This 【Nine-Revolutions Returning Soul Pill】 is the proud creation of the Hidden Mystic Venerable.

"Where is Star Realm Mountain? I might have a chance to try." Xiao Feng said.

Xuan Die raised her jade hand, pointed at him from afar, and a strand of golden light entered Xiao Feng's brow.

【Ding~ Monster Emperor Xuan Die has shared partial map information with you; please open the map to view!】

The system popped up a prompt.

Xiao Feng was delighted and quickly opened the big map.

On the map of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, Myriad Phenomena Forest is just a tiny white dot, because he has never even entered its entrance; he was directly teleported in, so there are no paths around it.

And Star Realm Mountain...

It is located in another dark area of the map, approximately 600 million kilometers away.

Moreover, the map information notes the words "located beyond the heavens, ascend straight up two hundred million kilometers".

In other words, even if you reach that place, you still need to fly upward for a long time to get there.

Xiao Feng made a mental calculation, connecting the coordinates of Myriad Phenomena Forest, Star Realm Mountain, and the actual altitude with line segments to form a triangle.

Then he used the Pythagorean theorem to calculate...

Finally, he concluded that flying diagonally upward from Myriad Phenomena Forest at a 22.5-degree angle would require traveling over 630 million kilometers, which is the shortest route!

Of course... the premise is that the ground of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield must be flat.

If it were a spherical surface, this algorithm would be wrong.

"Really far..."

Xiao Feng had a bit of a headache.

Even if he used the flight speed of a deity-level to rush, he would still have to fly for a very long time to get there.

Moreover, along the way he might encounter a boss, or have to suddenly return home due to affairs; he completely doesn't know how he could possibly arrive.

"Are you giving up so quickly?"

Seeing his worried, bitter expression, Xuan Die couldn't help but chuckle.

"Ah, let's talk about it later." Xiao Feng said.

Once his strength increases a bit more, his speed becomes faster, or he masters a long-distance teleportation method, it will be much quicker.

Or... wait until tomorrow when Qian Sha comes online to ask; maybe that guy can directly deliver him to the door.

"Senior, I still have one place I want to ask you about." Xiao Feng also said.

"Go ahead and say." Xuan Die said.

Xiao Feng said: "That place is called the Martial God Hall; it's a ruin, and supposedly one can obtain some equipment there."

"Martial God Hall, you still know about that?" Xuan Die was somewhat surprised.

"How come, is this place very famous?" Xiao Feng asked curiously.

Xuan Die slightly nodded: "The Martial God Hall is a place where the ancient mighty ones of your human race left behind their inheritance; many experts below the Venerable Realm from various races have entered to train and gained many benefits. However, the most important direct transmission of the Martial God has not yet been obtained by anyone; it is estimated that someone like you, a human adventurer, has a greater chance."

"So you mean the inheritance of the Martial God Hall is at the Venerable level?" Xiao Feng showed delight.

Xuan Die said: "Yes, do you want to give it a try?"

He thought for a moment and replied: "I already have an inheritance myself; the Martial God is a physical system, which may not suit me. However, I could go get some equipment, or if it's not far away, bring some friends along to romp around."

He has already cultivated the Heavenly Dao inheritance to the third stage; giving it up would be too regrettable.

In the future, he can still rely on the knowledge left by those predecessors to pursue higher levels of power; if he abandons it midway, it would be hard to find something that fits the 《Origin Book》 as well.

Compared to the inheritance, the Martial God set is better; it can provide him with a large amount of HP and survivability!

Xuan Die understood Xiao Feng's meaning, reached out and pointed at him again.

【Ding~ Yaohuang Xuandie shared part of the map information with you, please open the map to view!】

A system notification flashed, and Xiao Feng's map added the location information of the Martial God Palace again.

Looking at the two tiny dots on the vast black map, he couldn't help but say: "Senior…… couldn't you share the entire map of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield with me?"

Xuandie smiled elegantly, shook their head, and said: "No, young people are prone to impulsiveness; seeing so many interesting places, they can't help but run around everywhere."

Xiao Feng couldn't help but laugh and cry.

Being this strict, it's just like a mother; this senior is really......
