Protagonist:

Jiang Xuan

The Boy, having mastered the Kun Peng Divine Art, drifted up and down in the river every day.

"The Boy turned into a fish!"

Shou Hou and the others followed behind the Boy. Although they wanted to cultivate with the Boy, the gap was too great, and in the end they could only part ways with him.

However, Shou Hou and the others kept following the Boy, watching him enter the water and turn into a black fish.

But as he surged out of the water, the Boy turned into a Peng bird again.

The Peng bird spread its wings, covering both banks of the entire river.

"Wow! The Boy turned into a big bird again. This divine ability is so interesting—he can even transform!"

Shou Hou and the others had never fought the Boy, so they did not know how powerful the Kun Peng Divine Art was.

After the Boy mastered the Kun Peng Divine Art to perfection, it took no more than half a year.

His cultivation realm rose again, and he was already at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Master, I feel I can break through."

The Boy found Jiang Xuan, brimming with excitement, feeling he was almost catching up to Jiang Xuan's realm.

Looking at his expression, Jiang Xuan could guess his thoughts—he surely wanted to surpass him.

Even to the point of wishing Jiang Xuan would encounter danger, so he could help Jiang Xuan solve his difficulties.

Jiang Xuan saw through it but said nothing.

"Your realm, though perfected, has still not entered the ultimate realm."

"Your Spirit Body is already very powerful. There are special trials in the Xu Shen Jie for breaking through the Spirit Transformation Realm. Go and pass all of them."

"Continue to strengthen your Spirit Body, then inscribe the runes."

The Boy never doubted anything Jiang Xuan told him. He knew that to him, Jiang Xuan was both teacher and father. Since Jiang Xuan said so, he surely had his reasons.

"No problem, Master! I'll go right now."

The Boy downed a cup of beast milk.

Jiang Xuan looked at the beast milk he had personally brewed for him, feeling somewhat helpless.

"You're almost a grown child now. Do you really have to drink this beast milk?"

After drinking the beast milk, the Boy savored the aftertaste, still smacking his lips.

When he heard he couldn't drink beast milk anymore, his eyes widened and tears nearly fell.

"Master, although I'm almost a grown child, that doesn't stop me from loving beast milk! Did I do something wrong? How can you bear to not let me drink beast milk?"

The Willow God stood nearby, watching the Boy act spoiled, and also stealing glances at Jiang Xuan's expression.

Jiang Xuan was at a loss, not knowing how to answer the Boy's question.

"Forget it, just drink it. Drink if you want to."

He finally gave up on weaning the Boy off milk.

The Boy immediately changed his expression, beaming with a smile, then cheerfully took a sip of beast milk and set off for the Xu Shen Jie.

The Willow God watched the Boy's departing back.

"You've spoiled him rotten."

Jiang Xuan felt surprised, looking at the Willow God.

"How is it me who spoiled him? He likes to drink, so he drinks. There's nothing bad about it."

The Willow God was thrown into confusion, and became even more certain that the Boy had not given up milk because of Jiang Xuan.

"So he might keep drinking for a long time."

But Jiang Xuan's expression turned grave, giving the Willow God a bad feeling.

"With that expression, you mean he'll encounter something that makes him give up milk?"

Jiang Xuan did not hide his emotions; he nodded.

"A person's growth happens in an instant. Although I can help him solve everything, I would also deprive him of his own feelings and experiences."

"The trials that belong to him alone should be experienced by him."

The Willow God took this to heart. His gaze penetrated time, as if seeing himself back when he was high-spirited.

The Heaven's Prides of the same era gathered together, full of joy, but all of this had turned to foam and become nothingness.

"Nothing remains unchanged. Change is the essence of this world."

"No matter how powerful someone is, they cannot guarantee they will accompany someone for a lifetime. This is the sorrow that belongs to us."

"To tread this road, we will ultimately sacrifice some things. Though precious, we have no choice."

The Willow God's sorrow did not make Jiang Xuan empathize. For his Dao to be realized was to make up for the regrets of this life.

Whether it was the Boy or the Willow God, their regrets would be made up by himself.

"The Boy has his own trials. But as for the sad things you mentioned, I will make him powerful enough that everything goes as he wishes."

The Willow God had experienced absolute despair. A mindset like Jiang Xuan's was not something he had never had.

Only, the past ages had all passed. He had grown accustomed to being stood up and to despair. For him, everything going as he wished was already an Arabian Nights tale.

Although the Willow God's mindset was already like this, what he showed was the same as Jiang Xuan.

"Let the Boy end the sorrow that happened to me. This world belongs to him."

The Willow God was filled with hope for the Boy.

"You let Boy go to Xu Shen Jie so he could get on good terms with the two people there?"

Suddenly remembering the two old-timers of Xu Shen Jie, Willow God asked curiously.

"This path will surely be extremely difficult; Boy needs auxiliary strength, and you alone are not enough."

Although saying this made Willow God feel uncomfortable, it was the truth.

"I may already know Bird Elder's origins; if they can help Boy, several Immortal Kings will gather around Boy."

……

After Boy left, he headed straight for Xu Shen Jie.

Bird Elder and Grandpa Crystal Wall had been waiting for a long time; seeing Boy, they both sighed in relief: "This little guy finally came."

"I suppose he is about to step into the Spirit Transformation Realm... What! His realm is already at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm?"

"He hasn't even used the assistance of Xu Shen Jie, and it's only been a few days; how is he already at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm?"

Bird Elder was very surprised.

Even in Shang Jie, having such speed would be impossible.

"Bird Elder! I'm here, why aren't you coming out to see me?"

Boy had already gotten on good terms with Bird Elder and the others; now arriving here, he shouted loudly.

He treated Xu Shen Jie as his own home, and Bird Elder got a headache upon hearing this.

"This little guy really doesn't treat himself as an outsider."

He said this while walking toward Boy.

"What are you here for!"

Bird Elder acted very angry, clearly unwelcoming him.

Boy didn't care about his tone, looking left and right himself, wanting to see if there were any more good things in Xu Shen Jie for him to take away.

"My Master sent me here, saying you can temper my Spirit Body here."

Little Stone's eyes kept rolling.

"By the way, Bird Elder, you definitely have plenty of good things here, right? Tell me, how can I take these things away?"

Bird Elder was completely conquered by Boy, holding his own Forehead.

"To be honest, I don't want you to temper your Spirit Body here; also, let me see your Spirit Body."

Boy released his Spirit Body, and a terrifying Aura spread out instantly.

"This..."

The moment the Spirit Body appeared, the corners of Bird Elder's eyes became somewhat moist; he had seen too many Heaven's Prides, but these people were all the same, and not one could truly handle the Darkness Turmoil.

Now the Aura on Boy actually made him feel as if an Immortal King had descended; whether it was the unstoppable Aura or his cultivation, both carried a flavor not belonging to Xia Jie.

"It seems you have already found hope."

Grandpa Crystal Wall had accompanied Bird Elder for too long and long understood what was in his heart; the emotions shown today were something he hadn't seen in Ten Thousand Years.

Bird Elder didn't chat with Grandpa Crystal Wall, but instead solemnly summoned the Jing Shen Gu Dian.

But as soon as it came out, Bird Elder was stunned; the Ancient Era heroic spirits he had arranged for Boy were no match at all, being quickly swept away by Boy.

"This speed is too fast... really too exhilarating!"

Grandpa Crystal Wall still didn't expect that Bird Elder, seeing Boy's speed was very fast, had an obviously pained expression on his face, but the next second actually laughed out loud!

"If he does this, he'll destroy the Jing Shen Gu Dian!"

Grandpa Crystal Wall reminded him, but Bird Elder didn't care.

"For a once-in-Past-Ages genius, what if Xu Shen Jie is buried! I am willing to help him reach the clouds!"

For so many years, Bird Elder was being this manly for the first time.

All the heroic spirits in the Jing Shen Gu Dian were summoned by him to temper Boy's soul.

"Give him as many as there are; this guy is a combat genius, he's actually learning while fighting."

"Where is this? Still the strength of a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator, oh my, fighting is too exhilarating."

Bird Elder was too excited and had become a commentator.

Space was suddenly torn apart, and Jiang Xuan crossed domains to arrive.

The sudden arrival of Jiang Xuan made Bird Elder and Grandpa Crystal Wall tense up.

"Who are you!"

Bird Elder sized up Jiang Xuan all over, discovering his realm was actually only Inscription Pattern Realm, but how could this be possible; the pressure he felt was something only an Immortal King could bring.

He thought Jiang Xuan had come for Boy, and Bird Elder naturally wouldn't let Boy fall, so he subconsciously blocked Jiang Xuan's steps.

"He is my disciple."

Jiang Xuan pointed at Boy, who was fighting.

Bird Elder learned for the first time that Boy actually had a Master.

"You are his Master?"

Bird Elder looked at Jiang Xuan, then at Boy.

"So that's how it is; no wonder this little guy became a monster, it turns out he has a monster Master."

"Not that monstrous after all; after all, Boy's habit of liking beast milk can't be kicked in a short while."

A familiar voice suddenly came; Bird Elder recalled and saw Willow God.

"Willow God! You're still alive."

Looking at Willow God's physical body, Bird Elder couldn't believe it.

"He helped me condense my physical body, and I am currently recovering my realm."

Bird Elder heard that Jiang Xuan actually helped Willow God recover his physical body; this was definitely a terrifying Existence, but he had never heard the name Jiang Xuan, nor did he know his origins.

Regarding this, Jiang Xuan said nothing, instead looking at Bird Elder.

"What you have in mind, I already understand. My disciple needs to clear away all the Dark Turmoil, and needs someone to assist him. Are you willing to help?"

Jiang Xuan's words were more like a command, but to Bird Elder's ears, this was sheer arrogance.

"Then can you help me restore my physical body?"

Jiang Xuan said calmly: "I can."

To him, this matter seemed as easy as a wave of the hand, without any pressure at all.

"Good!"

Bird Elder agreed in one breath. He was not without backbone, but after so many years, he had always hidden his thoughts and long forgotten what backbone was.

Now hearing that he could restore his former glory, the thoughts deep in his heart were awakened by Jiang Xuan.

"Then let the entire Xu Shen Jie lend its power to Boy, so he may achieve invincibility in the Spirit Transformation Realm."

Jiang Xuan proposed the requirement.

"No problem."

Bird Elder turned to look. Boy was breezing through the trials, and at that moment, the power of the entire Xu Shen Jie poured into the Spirit Ancient Hall.

Boy saw the projections of the Ten Vicious descend.

"Oh my god, what is this thing? How could something like this appear here? This is the Ten Vicious! Bird Elder, are you trying to rob and kill me?"

Though he said that, Boy had already taken action.

Using his own spirit to confront them, after bombarding countless times, Boy's aura was weakened, but before him, everything had been swept clean.

"Hmph!"

Boy touched his nose, looking up at the sky above the Spirit Ancient Hall, and subconsciously touched his waist, but did not think of beast milk.

"Bird Elder! Is there anything else? The power of the Ten Vicious is nothing more than this!"

Boy's aura remained imposing.

"Let them comprehend the inscriptions in your hearts, then throw them into the Dark Cage."

"Good."

Bird Elder agreed quickly, then belatedly stopped the power in his hand, looking at Jiang Xuan in astonishment.

"He is really your disciple? Throw him into the Dark Cage?"

Jiang Xuan stared at Boy, believing he could do what he said.

"He has no problem."

Willow God also nodded, persuading Bird Elder.

"You should know that if Boy is truly that hope, what pressure he will face afterward. Only by making him stronger and able to stand on his own can he face the ultimate terror."

Bird Elder felt that letting the current Boy face all this was somewhat hard to bear.

But under Jiang Xuan's repeated requests, he still did so.

The Blood Transformation Emperor's technique appeared before Boy.

"Bird Elder, you still have a conscience."

Looking at the inscriptions appearing before him, Boy began to gain insight.

He lost track of time. When he woke again, his gaze was filled with lightning. With a wave of his hand, lightning came from the Nine Heavens, and he was like a thunder god.

"As expected of the first in the Blood Transformation Realm. Lightning entering his body causes him no harm, and this also aids his cultivation of the Blood Transformation Emperor's technique."

While Bird Elder marveled, Boy had already been thrown into the Dark Cage.

"Hmm?"

The sudden change in aura startled Boy as well.

He looked at the black soil before him, filled with an evil aura.

"Bird Elder, what are you doing? Where is this?"

Bird Elder's voice drifted over leisurely.

"This is the Dark Cage, a place close to the truth of this world. You will face such an existence in the future."

"You need to achieve the final elevation of your divine soul here."

After hearing this, Boy felt the dark aura circulate and fall upon his body, coiling around him like a venomous snake, making it hard for Boy to breathe.

"What kind of ghostly power is this."

He was very surprised.

Before his eyes, dark matter on the ground surged out, a nine-headed demon snake surged out, and hissed at Boy.

"What kind of existence is this! Bird Elder, you old thing, you're screwing me over."

Boy cursed loudly. (Chapter End)
