Chapter 1459: Xuan Die's Purpose

The War God Hall is also especially far from the Myriad Phenomena Forest, exceeding 400 million kilometers.

However…… the entrance to the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm is actually quite close, only fifty million kilometers.

It's no wonder the woodcutter and the old fisherman go there to train, and they even obtained two pieces of War God gear.

Xiao Feng calculated that Da Bai's speed is now about 60,000-plus kilometers per hour; going all out without stopping the skill acceleration, after squeezing a bit it can reach over 90,000 kilometers per hour.

Fifty million kilometers, flying for over twenty days will get there.

Oh wait, converting twenty-plus days equals about seven or eight months in the Divine Realm!

That's still a bit long; not suitable for me to go myself.

Better wait for Qian Sha to come online!

"Senior, I plan to go out for a trip recently; I should be back within a day or two." Xiao Feng said to Xuan Die.

Xuan Die replied: "I knew you wouldn't stay long; go if you want. The War God Hall is a decent training ground, and it also offers you considerable benefits."

"Since even you say that, I definitely have to go." Xiao Feng laughed.

The War God set and War God inheritance are both good things.

He has strong aptitude and sufficient strength; he will definitely gain considerable benefits.

But this is merely his wishful thinking.

Seeing his confident expression, Xuan Die couldn't help but admonish: "Before you set out, you'd better prepare more healing medicines and consumables."

"Um... why? Isn't my strength enough to storm the War God Hall's trial?" Xiao Feng asked, puzzled.

Although he only has one healing skill, its output is terrifying; he basically never lacks HP.

Moreover, the War God greaves have a passive HP regeneration, and the Decay Demonic Ring can absorb the maximum limit, making it hard to die.

Xuan Die said lightly: "Your strength mainly comes from your talent. But the War God Hall doesn't care about talent; it only looks at your comprehension of martial arts. Once inside, all your talent will be nullified—under those circumstances, do you still have confidence?"

"Huh? There's such a thing?"

Xiao Feng was instantly speechless.

Without talent, he would still be an extremely formidable existence among players, but compared to God King–level and Ancestral God–level experts, he's still not enough.

Not to mention other aspects, just his HP alone would be knocked straight back to zero.

"Then if that's the case… going with my current level would be quite dangerous, wouldn't it?" He furrowed his brows.

Xuan Die gave a light chuckle: "What, little guy, are you scared?"

"It's not fear, just worry that if my strength drops, my trial performance will be poor and I won't get the War God set." Xiao Feng explained.

Xuan Die smiled faintly and said: "If you don't dare, just honestly train a few more years; stop thinking about running around all day. My Little Jianmu environment is so good—isn't it enough for you to calm down?"

Those words carried a light admonition, and also meant to restrain him.

Xiao Feng knew her good intentions, but after thinking it over, he still felt he could go challenge the War God Hall ruins.

Anyway, even if he didn't obtain the War God gear, there'd be no loss.

"I'll go try first; if I fail, I'll go again in a few years. Moreover, the Myriad Heavens Battlefield likely has many similar places to the War God Hall; once I become stronger, I can sweep them all!" Xiao Feng said.

Seeing he still wanted to go, Xuan Die didn't dissuade him, saying: "Alright, then you go tell Cai Yi yourself when you'll return, and let her come early to the Myriad Phenomena Forest entrance to pick you up."

"Hmm, thanks, Monster Emperor senior; I'll definitely return as soon as possible!" Xiao Feng rose, preparing to take his leave.

Xuan Die shook her head: "No need for such words; you are my guest, not my subordinate—come whenever you wish."

Xiao Feng felt grateful upon hearing that.

He asked: "Monster Emperor senior, why are you so good to me? Is it merely to form a good karmic bond?"

Xuan Die has given him too many benefits: the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool baptism, the Violet Gold Divine Sense Pill, the Little Jianmu cultivation environment, and even let him enter the Sleeping Palace to drink tea together.

This doesn't seem like merely investing in a potential stock.

Xuan Die raised her head to look at him, smiling faintly: "What, are you afraid I harbor ill intentions toward you?"

"Not really; what could I possibly have that a Venerable–level expert like you would scheme for… I just feel you're being overly kind to me." Xiao Feng said.

He even once suspected that Xuan Die might be lusting after his good looks.

But Xuan Die is a Monster Emperor who has lived over a hundred thousand years—how could she possibly expend so much for such a vulgar reason?

If she truly lusted after him, she could just hang him up, strip his clothes, and do whatever she wanted—he, Xiao Feng, wouldn't even be able to resist, right?

So he felt there must be some unknown reason that Xuan Die has never spoken of.

Seeing his puzzled look, Xuan Die gave a mysterious faint smile and slowly rose.

She turned her back to Xiao Feng, walked a few steps toward the balcony, and stretched her body in the outside sunlight.

Light shone from outside, outlining her silhouette; the peerless female Monster Emperor's bearing displayed elegance and nobility, with a hint of languor and allure.

She gazed at the distant clouds and horizon, speaking lightly: "No need to overthink; I'm simply more willing than others to invest my capital. You will surely become a strong one— not a God King, not an Ancestral God, not even a Venerable like me, but a far greater peak Venerable, even a Dao Ancestor."

Xiao Feng remained silent.

It seems Xuan Die truly has high hopes for him.

He didn't interrupt; Xuan Die continued: "If you think my talk of forming a good karmic bond doesn't fit the current situation, then just consider it as me trying to curry favor with you in advance."

Curry favor?

Is this word a bit…?

Xiao Feng awkwardly said: "Senior, you're overpraising me; I just didn't expect your expectations of me to be so high."

"Really? Even higher than what you're thinking now." Xuan Die chuckled, turned, and walked back.

She was barefoot, with sunlight and sky behind her, making her facial expression somewhat indistinct.

In just a few steps, she arrived before Xiao Feng.

Then she slightly raised her head to look at Xiao Feng and said: "Let me tell you the truth; the purpose of my kindness toward you is actually very simple—just one sentence."

"What sentence?" Xiao Feng locked eyes with her, discovering that this senior's gaze was profoundly deep yet exceptionally clear, as if it could see through all the world's mysteries—even his little secret in his heart would be exposed.

For a moment, his heart couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Xuan Die's face showed no expression, her vermilion lips slightly parted, as she uttered: 'It's... take me out; I want to become a true living being.'

'Uh... ah?'

Xiao Feng didn't quite understand for a moment.

'Go out?'

'Where to go out?'

'Could it be... she said it's in the Myriad Heavens?'

Without letting him think further, Xuan Die said again: 'My master told me that this world is illusory. To the real universe, I am merely a piece of virtual information, nonexistent. Therefore, I want to find someone with the best aptitude, most likely to become a Dao Ancestor, to take me out of this virtual world and become a true living being.'

This time, she couldn't have been clearer.

Xiao Feng stood frozen in place.

'A virtual character... wants to break free of the game and become a real person?'

'Where did she get such a bold idea!'

'You mean I must become a Dao Ancestor to accomplish this?' Xiao Feng said in surprise.

Xuan Die nodded slightly: 'That's right, my master said so.'

'Your master... is the Holy Ape Demon Emperor? He knows about this?'

'Yeah, he's actually just like you, both from that world, only playing different roles,' Xuan Die replied.

'I'll go...'

Xiao Feng was instantly dumbfounded.

The strongest of the Four Great Demon Emperors of the Calamity Demon Clan, the Holy Ape Demon Emperor, is actually a real person acting the role!
