Chapter 1731

Still anxious? Xuan Die gave a light smile.

Xiao Feng grimaced: "I'm anxious, your saying that makes me even more anxious! Don't give birth to a monster!"

Hmm? Do you have any prejudice against monsters?

Upon hearing that, Xuan Die's face immediately turned cold, feigning displeasure.

Only then did Xiao Feng realize she was a monster.

He hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, this is just a folk saying, it has nothing to do with the monster race! Senior, please hurry and send me to the Void Sea—I don't want to wait even a day… not even a moment!"

Being all fidgety, how can you be a good father? Xuan Die admonished lightly.

I… I didn't…

Xiao Feng didn't know how to express his feelings; his usual ability to play with words had been completely messed up by Xun Shuang Xianzi.

Xuan Die said: "First take care of your own affairs. Your wife is perfectly safe; on the contrary, you— the gaze of the Lord of Life and the Lord of Stars has already fallen upon you, and they will soon act against you. If you now bring your wife back, not only will you fail to protect her and her child, you will actually harm her."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Feng's brows furrowed instantly.

Yeah, he actually forgot something so important!

The roar of the Lord of the Sky before his death spread throughout the Myriad Heavens; as the two strongest elder brothers of the Primordial Divine Spirits clan, the Lord of Life and the Lord of Stars surely heard it, and will arrive shortly to take revenge on him.

If he brought Xun Shuang Xianzi back now, with her stubborn temperament she definitely wouldn't stand by idly; they'd fight together, and even if he died it wouldn't matter— at worst he'd lose some cultivation.

But Xun Shuang Xianzi…

Thank you for the warning, Monster King Senior! I almost did something foolish! Xiao Feng felt a pang of anxiety.

Xuan Die said: "This time you didn't heed my advice and caused a great disaster; it's not just the Lord of Life and the Lord of Stars who took notice— many venerables in the Myriad Heavens world have noticed you. From now on, things will likely be tortuous; prepare yourself mentally."

Her tone carried a hint of reproach.

Xiao Feng explained: "I've actually thought this through many times. Even if I don't act today, given my strength, that day will come sooner or later. The Primordial Divine Spirits are strong, but I may not be completely without a chance to fight back. Rest assured, I won't falter on my path of growth; I will surely become the strongest and bring you to see our world."

Xuan Die's concern for him ultimately stems from her wish—to leave the Myriad Heavens and become a living being in the material universe.

This senior isn't particularly ancient, nor is he a powerhouse among the venerables, but he still owes Xiao Feng a considerable favor; whenever Xiao Feng runs into trouble, he comes here to sit awhile.

Therefore, he will surely do his utmost to help fulfill her wish.

After hearing his explanation, Xuan Die sighed: "Things have come to this; we can only go along with it."

"When will the Lord of Life and the Lord of Stars arrive?" Xiao Feng asked her.

She said: "I don't know the specifics. But at the moment the Lord of the Sky fell yesterday, a tremendous shock came from beyond the heavens, even affecting the Star Realm Mountain. It must be one of them setting out, now heading for the Myriad Heavens Battlefield. Judging by the time, they could arrive as soon as three or four days."

"Beyond the heavens? Three or four days? Venerables can move about freely, so why would it take so long?" Xiao Feng expressed his confusion.

Xuan Die explained: "The starry expanse beyond the heavens is immeasurably vast— at least several trillion times larger than the Myriad Heavens Battlefield. It hides countless secrets and great fortunes; venerables who have reached the pinnacle basically leave the Myriad Heavens Battlefield to explore outer starry space for higher realms. It's said that if one can reach the edge of the starry expanse, they might even break through the virtual universe and enter another extraordinary world."

Several trillion times…

Xiao Feng was left speechless.

The Myriad Heavens Battlefield is already absurdly huge; even with He Xianzi's incredible speed, I don't know how long it would take to fly across it once.

The outer starry expanse is so vast, it's clearly prepared for the venerables.

No wonder— earlier, when he asked the Vermilion Flame Southern Ming Bird about the Kunpeng's whereabouts, the answer was also in the outer starry expanse.

As top-tier venerables, the Lord of Life and the Lord of Stars have long grown tired of petty squabbles on the Myriad Heavens Battlefield and seek a higher realm.

Thus they have left this realm, gone to the outer heavens, seeking the boundary of the universe, wanting to break free of the virtual and become true life in an extraordinary world.

But countless years have passed, and they still haven't achieved their wish.

"Three or four days is actually longer than I expected; in terms of the Divine Realm, that's over a month." Xiao Feng mused.

He then said to Xuan Die: "If that's the case, I might as well go for another round of reforging! Senior, may I borrow your Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool once more? After I finish reforging, help me break through swiftly and return to the God Sovereign realm!"

The Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool is the nexus of chaotic time; training there speeds things up greatly— he broke through that way before.

Xuan Die nodded slightly: "Yes, with your current physique, the effect of time alteration should be even better than last time. However, you need to bring your own divinity; otherwise there isn't enough energy near the pool for you to cultivate."

The Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool originally allows only one entry per person.

But since Xiao Feng is the person she values most, and it concerns her own future path, making an exception once is not out of the question.

Upon hearing that the time-flow effect would be even better, Xiao Feng became even happier.

Previously his acceleration effect was already quite good, yet he still trained for nearly a month before breaking through to God Sovereign.

This time there are only about three days, so we need to speed it up tenfold or twentyfold!

By then his level will surpass Qian Sha and he'll reclaim the top spot on the server-wide Level Ranking!

As for bringing his own divinity, that's no problem— he has plenty of God King divinity and Ancestral God Heart, so he's not lacking in energy crystals at all.

"Monster King Senior, I'll go reforge right away; I'll leave He Xianzi with you for now and return to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield shortly." Xiao Feng bowed to her, preparing to leave.

He Xianzi, etc…

Xuan Die silently shook her head; the Venerable's Divine Sense had already seen her and the female demons making a ruckus in the study.

Although her underlings, the female demons, were never exactly proper, Xiao Feng's mount kept coming here to cause trouble, and she always felt a bit uneasy…

"Go on, take your mount with you; you can't keep indulging her. Be careful that one day she learns bad habits from Zi Xi and, while you're in a deep sleep, climbs onto your bed." Xuan Die said these rejecting words lightly.

Xiao Feng froze upon hearing that, his expression stiffening.

Such a thing… hiss! Just thinking about it is terrifying!

What the senior said makes sense; we must curb He Xianzi's tendency to keep learning bad habits, guide her onto the proper path, and make her a proper, solemn, non-beastly good mount!

Thinking of this, he immediately recalled He Xianzi into his mount space.

Then, after bidding farewell to the senior, he used Mi Jing transport to directly leave the Myriad Phenomena Forest and return to the Azure Moon Grotto Heaven.

Upon arriving at the Grand Vine House in the Azure Moon Grotto Heaven, he then released He Xianzi.

As a result, he saw a stark naked white body…

He Xianzi snapped, "Detestable big brother, I was in the middle of fun, and you… sigh, where is this?"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw He Er Na and Dai Ni Si beside her.

The two goddesses, one large and one small, widened their eyes at the naked He Xianzi, then looked at Xiao Feng, showing a strange expression.

"Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand! I'm not that kind of beast!" Xiao Feng hastily explained, fearing that his brotherly bond with Da Bai would be misunderstood.

He Xianzi also quickly turned into a tiny crane only half a meter tall, "shyly" hiding away.

"Cough…… Master, is everything settled?" He Er Na asked, with an expression of being unfazed.

They had previously gone to the Yuan Su Shen Yu to lay low, and now they have returned.

Xiao Feng nodded: "I'm about to go into secluded cultivation again; I can't accompany you for now. By the way, there's something else—please give this to Ning Er for me; I'm in a bit of a hurry."

In order to quickly go into secluded cultivation, he didn't even have time to hand over the gift from Qian Sha to an expert; after taking out the book and giving it to He Er Na, he left directly.
