Chapter 1834

After a while, both were neatly dressed and went to the balcony together.

Xiao Feng said: "Sister, I'm about to break through my realm today. After becoming a God King, I can still go to the Four Continents world to see Emperor Yu. Emperor Yu... you should know him too, right?"

Chen Jie nodded slightly: "That fellow Emperor Yu is also very strong, stronger than Can Kong; in the game he can solo defeat kun-peng. But he never fights anyone, merely existing as the tribal king. When you go see him, be humble—maybe it'll help."

"That's for sure; I've always been humble in front of my seniors." Xiao Feng nodded.

"Not humble at all in front of me—aren't I your senior?" Chen Jie curled the corner of her mouth.

"Of course not."

Xiao Feng chuckled, leaned in and whispered softly in her ear: "You're my wife."

"Pah, shameless!" Chen Jie retorted angrily.

But surprisingly, she didn't beat him up.

After a while, she suddenly said: "Xiao Feng, I'm leaving."

"Leave? Huh?"

Xiao Feng blinked, puzzled: "Where to? Go find Old Ancestor Da Yi for a drink?"

She said: "No, I'm going to cultivate. I've rested enough; I've found much joy here with you. Next I'll go to the edge of the universe to seek the remnants of the time laws of higher-dimensional space, to comprehend the path to the Origin Realm."

"This, this..."

Xiao Feng suddenly felt a pang of sadness and asked: "Then... will you come back?"

Chen Jie shook her head: "The time of return is uncertain; I dare not promise. Perhaps when I achieve Enlightenment, it will be billions of years later. Or maybe I'll never comprehend it in this lifetime, until ages decay and the universe perishes, gaining nothing."

Then she added: "I won't be coming back. If you want to see me, come find me in the Dao Ancestor Realm."

"This... but..."

Her farewell came too suddenly; Xiao Feng was momentarily speechless, with many things he wanted to say but didn't know how to start.

Chen Jie faced him and stepped back a pace.

A void vortex opened, the surrounding space twisted, and in an instant she was about to leave.

"Wait!" Xiao Feng grabbed her.

But... for a moment he didn't know what words to use to face this sudden parting.

The Dao Ancestor said she was leaving; no one could stop her.

All he could do was take one more look before the parting.

Chen Jie gently lowered his hand, gave him a rare tender smile, and said: "Don't stop at the Controller Realm; I'm still waiting for you to conquer my true form."

Having spoken, she stepped back, entered the void vortex, and vanished.

Hum~

Space trembled, the vortex disappeared, and the whole building returned to normal.

Dao Ancestor Sister just left like that...

"Ah..."

Xiao Feng felt a sense of loss.

The joy of reaching the threshold of the God King Realm faded considerably all at once.

But...

This sorrow didn't last long; it was quickly replaced by an intense fighting spirit!

"Dao Ancestor Realm... I will surely reach it!"

"Sister, wait for me—I'll appear before you again soon, and then you'll see how strong I am!"

Controller, Stellar Controller, Eternal Controller, Dao Ancestor.

Or... God King, Ancestral God, Venerable, a Venerable above level 3000, Dao Ancestor.

This road is still long, but he has confidence that he will surely cross the journey and reach the other shore!

But, talk is talk.

Turning around and seeing the messy bed behind him, he inevitably felt a pang of sorrow.

These past few months have been the most frequent he's gone offline since becoming transcendent; each day he logs off to come here for a while.

Jiang Ning and the others didn't know about the time domain; they thought he was just chatting with the new sister and doing nothing.

But actually...

Apart from that thing he didn't do, he did everything else.

Xiao Feng walked into the room, reluctant to tidy up that bed.

The air still lingered with Dao Ancestor Sister's fragrance; he stayed in the room a while, not immediately returning.

After a while, when he remembered there were still important things to do in the game, he finally got up.

As he rose, he felt as if he'd bumped into something.

Looking down, he saw a small black bead rolling at the edge of the bedding.

"What is this?"

Xiao Feng picked it up and looked.

It was about the size of a marble, completely black, its material indiscernible.

It wasn't heavy in his hand, about the same as ordinary metal.

But under the sense of his will, he had an intuition that this should be a very powerful treasure, a life-saving item left by Dao Ancestor Sister for him to use against future crises!

"Sister, thank you..."

Xiao Feng treasured it, putting it away in his bosom.

He then closed the doors and windows, and when going downstairs he also locked the main door below, not allowing anyone else to enter.

He returned to his residence and logged back into the game.

…… (just ellipsis). Should translate as "……"? Usually ellipsis stays same. We'll output "……". Keep as is.

【Welcome back to the Myriad Heavens World!】

The system's voice was still so familiar.

When logging into the game, Xiao Feng was still in the cave dwelling of the World Ancient Tree.

He had just finished his cultivation not long ago, and there were still 12 hours before he could make the final third-level breakthrough.

At this moment, his willpower was full, 100 million points exactly; without breaking through, he could not continue to increase.

On the Level Ranking, there were already over 40 God Kings at level 1000, most of them from Zu Jian Xing and Tian Shen Zu Di, and a few were players who had given up reincarnation.

However, there were also over a hundred people whose level stalled at 1000 and could not move forward, failing to break through to become God Kings.

This is a limitation of talent.

Giving up reincarnation to compete for the Level Ranking does not necessarily make one among the strongest; sometimes, limited aptitude makes the bottleneck extremely hard to break.

Unless there is a great opportunity that improves physique and soul, otherwise the realm threshold will block many people.

Just like the Supreme God Realm, even now more than 95% of people are stopped and cannot enter it.

He could only cultivate after 11 hours, but Xiao Feng was not in a hurry.

He summoned He Xianzi, opened the Mi Jing gate, returned to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, and continued on his way.

Over the past ten-plus days, He Xianzi's level has also risen together with his. Because she had undergone one fewer reincarnation, her faction had merely been sealed before, her level never stopped growing, and now she too is at level 990.

Her speed grew ever faster, like lightning, flashing past in the high skies.

At this point, they were still about half a month's journey from the entrance of the Void Sea, and there were no traces of any warzone headquarters nearby.

Near the entrances of the Four Legendary Secret Realms are all 'barren zones'; unless players build cities themselves, within three to five hundred million kilometers, player forces are certainly invisible.

"Big brother, after breaking through to God King, what is the first thing you want to do?" He Xianzi asked while they hurried along.

Xiao Feng thought for a moment and replied: "I can't reach the Void Sea for now; even if I got there, finding people would take time, so I certainly couldn't rush it. After breaking through, I think I should first try challenging the Origin Secret Realm, then find time to make a trip to the Four Continents World."

For the Void Sea expedition, he can use the Mi Jing gate as a 'save point'; as long as he doesn't normally use this opportunity to open the secret realm, entering and exiting via the Teleportation Array will keep the entrance's position memorized at his farthest coordinates.

Then going on to do other things will have no effect.

The reason he wants to first make a trip to the Four Continents World is because he is certain this is an opportunity.

Even Chen Jie praises Emperor Yu so highly, his strength is beyond doubt. Going to see this ancient emperor won't take much time; if luck is good, maybe one's strength could greatly increase, making the journey to the Void Sea more confident.
