Chapter 1795

~7 min read 1,378 words

【Ultimate Resurrection Technique released successfully, "Huo Zhi Shi" has revived, your level decreased by 1!】

The system popped up a prompt tone.

At this moment, the secret chamber was so quiet that a falling pin could be heard.

Hmm……

A soft murmur sounded, and Huo Zhi Shi's eyes opened.

Mother Goddess, Mother Goddess!!

Ba Yan shouted loudly, then with a thud knelt again.

But this time he wasn't kneeling to Xiao Feng, but to his mother.

Blazing Flame Chief God knelt beside the Fire Jade Bed, looking at his mother who had finally revived, tears streaming down his face.

What…… is this place?

Huo Zhi Shi had slept too long, feeling utterly confused.

Beside her, a middle-aged man was weeping; she turned her head and exclaimed, 'You are…… Xiao Yan?'

It's me, it's me! Mother Goddess, Mother Goddess! I've missed you so much……

At this moment, Ba Yan had none of the domineering aura of the Lord of the God Kingdom; it was as if a child who had been away from home for years had finally returned to his mother's embrace, and he wept uncontrollably.

Huo Zhi Shi looked at this tearful middle-aged man, sensing his God King–level aura, and was momentarily stunned.

This, this…… how did my child grow so big? How long have I slept? What happened? She was astonished, her memory still stuck at the moment she had painstakingly restored the God Kingdom Continent and then fallen asleep.

It's been thirteen thousand years, Mother Goddess; you've slept for thirteen thousand years. Ba Yan's nose and tears streamed as he spoke, recounting what had happened over those years.

He spoke quickly, skipping over unimportant matters, only talking about the events before and after the Mother Goddess fell asleep, and about Xiao Feng helping to revive her.

Although he spoke quickly, recounting these from a son's perspective still moved people; Xiao Feng and Mi Nie Ya were both touched, their eyes slightly wet.

La Luo Na Er's reaction was comparatively calm; although he wasn't as old as Ba Yan, the worldview of Zhu Shen Da Lu differs from Shen Jie—there, a hundred years old is considered elderly, and twenty years makes a generation. A several-hundred-year-old mortal elder has exceptionally rich life experience, and his state of mind could even surpass that of Shen Jie spirits who have lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

Watching the Flame Chief God and his son reunite, Xiao Feng felt relieved.

At the same time, he thought of Xiao Xuan Die being unable to reunite with her Mother Goddess, feeling immense guilt.

"If the Book of Great Salvation could revive the venerable one, that would be great..."

He sighed.

At that moment, Huo Zhi Shi also finished listening to her son's narration.

She got up and left the bed; her body had been immobile for too long, making walking difficult, and she needed Ba Yan to support her.

"Warrior Xiao Feng, thank you for running around for me and saving my life."

She came before Xiao Feng, and mother and son together performed a great salute to thank him.

Xiao Feng helped them up and said, "No need for thanks; Brother Ba Yan and I are on good terms, and he's helped me a lot—I'm just doing what I can. Moreover... Brother Ba Yan initially gave me a sizable reward."

He smiled.

Back then, Ba Yan asked him to help revive Huo Zhi Shi, and the task's reward was "a cache of treasures related to the Dao Ancestor."

Although it wasn't specified what exactly, anything related to the Dao Ancestor is already priceless!

"Reward? What kind of reward?" Huo Zhi Shi looked at her son.

Ba Yan slapped his forehead, laughing, "I was so happy I almost forgot!"

Then he took out a broken blade.

This broken blade looks like the tip of a spear that snapped off, about palm-length, with a thick spine, an extremely sharp tip, and sharp edges, but it has lost its luster and divine power.

【Mysterious Broken Blade】: an enigmatic item of unknown origin and effect.

"What is this?" Xiao Feng asked.

Huo Zhi Shi, however, recognized it at a glance: "Isn't this the treasure I brought back?"

Ba Yan nodded: "This is the treasure the Mother Goddess brought back from the Myriad Heavens Battlefield; to obtain it, she suffered grave injuries, and shortly after returning she fell asleep."

Huo Zhi Shi added: "This treasure is extremely powerful, containing a strand of mysterious, unfathomable power, perfect for suppressing anomalies and restoring the continent. However, after I used it, it seems to have lost its effect."

Xiao Feng nodded slightly, sorting out the relationship.

Back then, the Shen Jie experienced an anomaly, the Divine Kingdom Continent shattered, and it was in imminent danger.

The fundamental cause might have been a disturbance stirred up by the ancient gods.

This "spear tip" is strong enough to deter the ancient gods, and the Dao resonance it contains holds boundless power, just right to help Huo Zhi Shi repair the shattered Divine Kingdom Continent.

But... what does it have to do with the Dao Ancestor?

Under Xiao Feng's puzzled gaze, Ba Yan continued: "After the Mother Goddess fell into a coma, I have been studying this thing, trying to use it to find a way to awaken her. But later I discovered it lacks that ability; instead, it constantly tries to point me toward a certain place."

"Oh? Where to?" Xiao Feng asked curiously.

Ba Yan explained: "It's like a beacon; if you infuse it with energy approaching the level of a God King, it will lift off and fly in a direction. He expended much energy trying it several times, and finally discovered its destination is a remote part of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield. Knowing my strength is insufficient, I have never dared to go, so I've kept it until now."

To a certain place in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield...

Xiao Feng frowned slightly.

It seems its value is definitely not low!

It seems its value is definitely not low!

"Then how do you know it's related to the Dao Ancestor?" Xiao Feng asked him.

Ba Yan looked at Huo Zhi Shi and deflected: "The Mother Goddess said so."

"Huh?" Xiao Feng was even more surprised.

Huo Zhi Shi explained: "When we encountered it on the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, enemies tried to seize it, and one of the savage beast clan's strong warriors shouted, 'That's a fragment of the Dao Ancestor's weapon; seize it and you'll be invincible.' I initially didn't believe it, but during the struggle I personally saw it dart forward and directly slay the two strongest contenders. Those two... were both God Kings."

"Tsk tsk, that's kinda interesting."

Xiao Feng's interest was piqued.

This "spear tip" now is depleted of divine power, quite ordinary, yet its sharpness remains astonishing, seeming even a bit sharper than a Dao-Severing Sword.

While its divine power had not yet been depleted, it, as a broken weapon, fled wildly and randomly, actually managing to slay a god king—evidence of its extraordinariness.

However, later it unexpectedly cooperated with the Fire Poem, having its power drawn to repair the divine realm, which is somewhat surprising.

How could such an unruly, defiant treasure willingly be drained?

Could it also harbor good intentions, wishing to benefit the people?

"I don't know whether the words shouted by that savage beast are true or false; if they are true, then which Dao Ancestor's weapon could it be?" Xiao Feng wondered.

He felt that this statement was eight or nine out of ten true!

Even a Dao-Slaying Sword would not run around killing people on its own; only a high-level Supreme Treasure endowed with spiritual consciousness, or an even stronger weapon, could do that.

Even a broken blade is like this; how terrifying must a complete Dao Ancestor's weapon be?

The direction it wants to go might very well be where the other fragments are located!

"We don't know this either. Brother Xiao Feng, it's yours now, to help you find the opportunity to locate it." Ba Yan gave Xiao Feng this thing that resembled a spearhead.

Xiao Feng gladly accepted.

Gazing at the "spearhead" in his hand, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind's eye.
