Chapter 1701: Yearning for Power

Hmph, weak little reptile.

The Lord of Tian Kong wasn't angered by taking 3.8 points of damage; after all, that amount of damage was only two ten-thousandths to it.

Xiao Feng didn't get up again; all the players around him were dead, and the city had already been destroyed.

The Lord of Tian Kong lost interest and continued flying forward, heading off into the distance.

"Let's go; those who want to fight can continue battling at the next stop, and those who don't can go home."

Xiao Feng watched the world boss depart, then revived on the spot.

If he revived nearby, he'd lose experience; given the chance, he'd definitely revive where he stood.

He used the Mi Jing teleport to return to Azure Moon Cave Heaven, giving himself some time to relax.

After half a month of intense self-exploitation, his willpower grew quickly, but the burden was too great; his mind and body were exhausted and needed relief.

Players scattered to attend to their own affairs; most still wanted to fight another round, since losing experience wasn't much and they could bear it. Climbing a few ranks higher would bring better rewards.

After returning to Azure Moon Cave Heaven, Xiao Feng spent some time chatting with He Er Na and the others.

The goddesses were also training hard, but their leveling speed wasn't as fast as the players'; aside from Xiu Fu and Xiao Mi being relatively high level, He Er Na, Mi Nie Ya, and the others were gradually being overtaken by the players.

Xiao Feng was strong enough to protect them, so safety wasn't an issue.

But they felt a bit unwilling, watching Xiao Feng go farther and farther while they themselves became increasingly useless, unable to help, secretly anxious.

Especially the war goddess Mi, who had once been a fearless war god, having fought countless battles, now lived a carefree life kept in the Mi Jing, which didn't quite match her 'Dao'.

That day, while everyone was behaving and just sitting chatting, she said to Xiao Feng: 'Master, I want to go out to temper my cultivation and improve myself; I don't know if that's possible...'

"It's not allowed; outside is too dangerous now, with 800-level players everywhere. If you got ambushed and killed, I'd be sad." Before she finished speaking, Xiao Feng firmly refused.

Mi frowned and said: 'But with this kind of training, I'm afraid I'll have trouble becoming strong.'

"If you want to fight, I can call Ning Er, Dun Dun, Yu Er, and Yun Yan to accompany you; their combat skills are decent, their strength comparable to yours, enough to be your opponents." Xiao Feng said.

Mi said: 'The War God lineage needs real combat; growth is better suited to life-and-death struggles and the brink of crisis. I have the guardian's permission from my master, so I can return immediately if danger arises—no need to worry.'

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng raised his right hand, and the Immortal-binding Rope instantly trussed her up tightly.

"Like this, can you still escape?"

"I... I'll try." Mi, bound by a 7th-tier Supreme Treasure, still wanted to escape.

She tried it; the teleport function still worked, but due to interference from the Supreme Treasure, the cooldown was over three seconds.

That amount of time is enough to kill someone several times over in a battle between experts.

Xiao Feng saw her appear in the Great Vine House, reached out and grabbed her from afar, then said helplessly: 'Don't be stubborn; the Myriad Heavens Battlefield is no place for you to train now. Training and gaining insight here is safest. I've been sending people to inquire about the blood feud of your War God Lineage Primordial Ancestor; as soon as there's any news, I'll bring you along to investigate and avenge your ancestor.'

Xiao Mi's craving for strength largely stems from the hatred in her bloodline.

Xiao Feng naturally hadn't forgotten this; he'd sent people to inquire long ago, but the Myriad Heavens Battlefield is huge, so there's still no news.

"Master, subordinate..."

Mi sighed, feeling a bit unwilling.

Xiu Fu feared they'd argue with Xiao Feng, so she hurried to smooth things over, saying: 'Okay Xiao Mi, just listen to Xiao Feng; outside is truly dangerous, we're practically helpless weaklings now—honestly staying put and cultivating is the right choice. You're the last bloodline of the War God State, and you have no heirs; if something happened, what would we do?'

"This..."

Xiao Mi sighed, and that dispelled the idea.

But she still harbored a lingering desire; her yearning for power had not faded.

"Master, grant your subordinate a child." She looked at Xiao Feng and made the request.

Xiao Feng gave a wry smile: 'I'd like that too, but my body in this world is virtual—I can't have children.'

If he could, at his frequency and intensity, the kids would probably make up a whole soccer team!

Mi's expression fell.

Xiao Feng quickly added: 'But let's try anyway; perhaps it was just the previous realm gap. Now we're both High-level Chief Gods—maybe it'll work!'

Then he took them to a secluded spot and began to practice.

Xiao Feng continued to leave the Mi Jing, flying out to the Wasteland Region to keep training his skills.

He Xianzi stayed home to train; this time she didn't go to Magic Source Mountain, lest that stupid bird keep bothering Qinglian Xianzi and annoy Feng Feng Shi.

Another reason for not going to Magic Source Mountain is that his 'self-destruct' radius keeps growing; he fears accidentally destroying the city everyone painstakingly built.

After all, a magnitude 10 or even 11 earthquake every few days—no one could withstand that!

The fusion of Dao Mark Scar and Innate Dao Body has made slight progress; if we press on while the iron's hot, we might achieve something!

Xiao Feng kept grinding away, regardless of whether anyone was around, casually training in an open space.

After half a month of trying, his control over force grew stronger; though the fusion hadn't succeeded yet, there was still a hint of progress.

Boom~

Boom~

After two more explosions, Xiao Feng lost 20% of his cultivation.

But he also found a very important point from it!

Using 100% Innate Dao Body to fuse with Dao Mark Scar is 'too much'!

The quality of the Innate Dao Body itself might be comparable to the Godly Might Dao Pattern, but Xiao Feng's flesh also contains a huge amount of divine essence and two kinds of law power.

A mere Dao Pattern formed from 100,000 divine power, compared to this body, naturally shows many shortcomings.

It's like the formula 'one niter, two sulfur, three charcoal': the Innate Dao Body is the 'charcoal', the Dao Mark Scar is the 'niter-sulfur'; now he has 1000 parts charcoal but only 1 part niter-sulfur, the resulting powder is almost all charcoal— the ratio is insufficient, not reaching the detonation threshold.

After realizing this, Xiao Feng decisively changed his approach.

He flew out from the main base's Teleportation Array, making a few shifts to reach the Wasteland Region far from the city.

Then he split off a clone with about 1% of his main body's attributes, distancing it from himself.

"This time it should work!"

He vaguely felt that success was not far off!
