Chapter 2306
"Xuan Die sister, when did you go online?"
translation
To be honest, calling a little girl who looks about twelve or thirteen 'sister' feels strange.
However, she is a senior who has cultivated for tens of thousands of years, and she truly deserves that title.
Xiao Xuan Die's level had somehow already reached 990, and she was about to become a god king.
She said unhappily, 'You haven't cared about me at all, after I wholeheartedly taught your two daughters cultivation, yet you don't even know how long it's been since I returned to the myriad heavens world.'
"Um, that..."
Xiao Feng scratched his head embarrassedly; he indeed didn't know, and he had thought Xuan Die had no intention of returning to the game world at all.
"Sister, is there something you need to do when you return to the game world?" He tried to change the subject.
Xuan Die said, 'Can't I come if there's nothing to do?'
"Of course you can; Cai Yi senior and the others are still here, so coming back to see them is perfectly normal." Xiao Feng forced a laugh.
"You call me sister, but call Cai Yi senior?" Xiao Xuan Die glanced at him sideways, looking displeased.
Xiao Feng was both laughing and crying.
He could tell that Xuan Die was angry with him, though he didn't know what he had done to offend her.
"How have you been over there?"
Xuan Die brought up a topic to ask him.
"Not bad, I've settled in. There seem to be many controllers in this place, but so far I've only encountered two—I killed one and the other fled." Xiao Feng gave a brief overview.
Xuan Die exclaimed, 'You killed a controller so quickly?'
Regarding the affairs of the Infinite Continent, Xiao Feng and his wives had mentioned it before, but Xiao Xuan Die had always lived in the Demon Garden and never gone to the Xiao residence side.
, so she naturally didn't know.
Xiao Feng told her briefly what happened on the day he first entered the Infinite Continent.
After listening, Xuan Die frowned and said, 'With the strength of a star‑level controller, if they noticed you a bit sooner, finding you would be quite simple. You need to be careful; you might even be under surveillance right now.'
"Huh?" Xiao Feng was startled by the words.
Xuan Die explained, 'Think about it—when the Sovereign of Illuminating Heaven fled, could she have already sent an avatar to inform her direct superior, the Holy Saint of Calamity Law?'
Xiao Feng nodded slightly: 'There is that possibility.'
"With only your concealed aura and successive teleportation, do you really think you could escape the perception of a star‑level powerhouse?" Xuan Die countered.
Xiao Feng immediately frowned: 'According to what you're saying, Sister, the Holy Saint of Calamity Law discovered me long ago and has been secretly tailing me without showing up, waiting for a chance to strike?'
"That is possible. Perhaps he has some reservations, or maybe he wants to catch more fish. You must be careful; find an opportunity to lure him out and kill him, otherwise the longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes." Xuan Die gave a solemn analysis, reminding him.
Xiao Feng felt a heavy weight in his heart.
Before, he had always overlooked this possibility, thinking his Divine Sense was strong enough to detect other experts' spying.
But now, thinking about it, if there were an entity whose realm far surpassed his own, an old monster who had cultivated tens of thousands or even millions of years longer than him, its will would surely be stronger than his.
The other party secretly observing his every move without making a move is entirely possible.
Because the powerhouses of the Infinite Continent and those of the main universe have an agreement, star‑level and eternal‑level beings cannot easily act against juniors, otherwise they would provoke the wrath of the main universe's powerhouses and be purged.
Originally, a planetary‑level controller was killed, which gave the star‑level a justification to act.
But the Demon Overlord Monarch was killed in a two‑on‑one reversal; if a star‑level intervened in such a situation, it would be indefensible, so even if the Holy Saint of Calamity Law found Xiao Feng, he could only endure for now.
He was waiting for an opportunity!
Wait until Xiao Feng gathers over a hundred trainees, accumulates sufficient justification to act, and then wipe them all out in one fell swoop!
This possibility is quite high!
Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel relieved; fortunately, there aren't many small teams nearby, otherwise something might have already happened.
Although the numbers haven't yet reached the threshold, the Holy Saint of Calamity Law might be eyeing him now; if he doesn't devise a counter‑strategy, disaster could eventually strike.
Nobody likes the feeling of a sword hanging over their head; this matter must be resolved……
"Star‑level… is tough to deal with." Xiao Feng had a headache.
Xuan Die also worried for him, saying, 'Think about it—is there any way to shake him off? You've only just entered this realm; trying to confront him head‑on is unrealistic, so you must devise a strategy from another angle.'
"How to shake him off? My teleportation range isn't larger than his detection range, so going anywhere could get me spotted. Besides, I can't leave Zichen and the others behind; if a planetary‑level controller made a move, they'd be doomed." Xiao Feng rubbed his forehead.
Now he feels like he's riding a tiger and can't get off; if the Holy Saint of Calamity Law is really spying on him, this situation is really hard to break.
Xuan Die helped think, but there wasn't really a good solution.
At this very moment, Xiao Feng and the others are like lab animals, being watched by the Holy Saint of Calamity Law, the researcher, ready to dissect them at any time.
Calamity
The Holy Saint of Calamity Law didn't dare act immediately, because the lab still had monitoring installed, and without permission they couldn't arbitrarily move the experimental specimens, the small animals.
As a small animal, Xiao Feng's feelings can be imagined.
"Perhaps I should think of a way to become even stronger." He said.
Xuan Die gave a wry smile: 'How could a breakthrough be that easy? Controllers accumulate tens of thousands of years; you're still so young, wanting to break through again is nearly impossible unless you obtain a great opportunity.'
Xiao Feng said, 'Opportunities are unpredictable and cannot be relied upon as a lifesaver. All I can do is comprehend the laws and refine a stronger secret art.'
Over the past twenty‑plus years, in the game his level has skyrocketed, and he has already entered the Venerable realm.
But in terms of methods, he actually hasn't gained anything new.
Probably because the war ended, the bosses were almost cleared out, leaving only a kun‑peng, so his pressure lessened, his focus shifted to reality, and he stopped researching those.
Now, thinking back, the intention sword and the Chaos Domain saved his life.
The self‑comprehended skills from the game can basically be used in reality as well.
To contend with a star‑level powerhouse, for him the most realistic and reliable method is to research a ninth‑tier secret art!
"It's a pity the Dao Mark Scar can't be used in the real world; otherwise, even at star-level I'd have a fighting chance." Xiao Feng sighed.
Xuan Die, hearing that, asked him: "Have you studied it carefully? Why can it only be used in the virtual world?"
"This..."
Xiao Feng had naturally studied it, but he just couldn't figure out the reason.
According to what Chen Jie had told him earlier, the Dao Mark Scar was his exclusive law rune, and it only appeared in the virtual universe on the first day he logged into the game.
In other words, this is something he brought from the real world.
It can be used when brought from the real world into the virtual universe, but once taken back it can't be used anymore, which is a bit hard to explain.
Xiao Feng always felt that there must be some "secret" about himself that even he doesn't know.
If he could figure all this out, star-level enemies wouldn't be so scary.
【It's been a long time since I've properly rested; even when I took leave at 3 a. m., I was actually writing a new book, never outputting less than six chapters a day. My fingers hurt, I'm under mental pressure, suffering insomnia, feeling like I can't hold on much longer. Today I'll just do one chapter and rest thoroughly.】
