In the Feng family's residence, Feng Shaoqing looked at Wang Luo with a complicated expression.
Back in the Northern Zone and the Southern Region, he had been shocked by Wang Luo and the others.
After all these years, their strength had already advanced past his.
He, Feng Shaoqing, was inferior to them.
The Feng family's burden was too heavy.
No matter how high-spirited and talented he seemed on the outside, the family's expectations for him to surpass others weighed down upon him constantly, stifling him. Furthermore, his achievements mattered not in their efforts to save their ancestor.
"I can save your family's ancestor. I'm not lying to you."
Wang Luo got straight to the point.
Wang Luo had his own plans to save Fengkong.
The latter was once a human king. Even if he was defeated and almost died, he was still a Dao realm existence.
Every human king was a shockingly talented person.
If Fengkong could survive, he would definitely be able to lead the cultivators of the Southern Zone to fight against the blood fiend race.
If he saved Fengkong, he would also have a share of the fate that Fengkong fought for amidst the calamity.
Furthermore, he still had to go to the Starry Sky Palace in the Central Zone to complete the old pill king's request.
The Starry Sky Palace was an ancient faction, and he did not know what kind of grudge the old pill king had with the Starry Sky Palace.
This required the aid of experts.
He did not want to trouble his master, so Fengkong was a good alternative choice.
Wang Luo knew his own limits. Within this short period of time, he would not be able to break through to the Dao realm.
Now that the Great Daoyuan calamity had begun, there would be too many variables present for him to risk trying to break through to the Dao realm.
If they were not careful, even the Starry Sky Palace would be destroyed in the great calamity, much less him.
Therefore, Wang Luo was prepared to fight for fate and raise his strength to the Divine realm before heading to the Central Zone.
Not only was Fengkong a Dao realm expert, but he was also a human king. He would be of great assistance.
Feng Shaoqing was silent for a moment before he said bitterly, "I do trust you, Brother Wang, but I can't make the decision!"
"Then are you allowed to visit your family's ancestor?"
"Yes, I am."
Feng Shaoqing nodded.
As the most outstanding descendant of the Feng family of this generation, or even of several generations, he had been instilled with the belief that the family had to save Fengkong since he was young.
He had seen the slumbering ancestor more than once.
"Then there's no problem."
Wang Luo took out a small bottle and handed it to Feng Shaoqing. "The medicinal pill inside can wake up your patriarch, but it can't heal him. After your patriarch awakens, tell him to look for me."
Feng Shaoqing took the bottle and nodded.
"Alright."
Wang Luo, on the other hand, was surprised and asked, "Aren't you worried that I'll harm your ancestor?"
Feng Shaoqing smiled.
"The burden is too heavy. It's a good thing to be able to let it go, no matter how."
"If Brother Wang really wants to harm our ancestor, you should be prepared to be hunted down by the Feng family. I just want to be rid of this burden."
"If the old ancestor is really saved, I will also be able to unload my burden."
Wang Luo nodded. Feng Shaoqing's words made sense. It seemed that his belief in saving his ancestor was not very strong.
"The Great Daoyuan calamity is both a calamity and an opportunity. Brother Feng, make good use of it."
Wang Luo waved his hand and left.
Feng Shaoqing looked at Wang Luo's back as he left. He held the bottle in his hand and walked toward the forbidden area in the back mountain.
The experts of the family were all outside. Now was the best time to see the ancestor and save him.
Otherwise, those old fogeys would not allow him to feed the ancestor medicine so casually.
Outside the Feng family's residence, Xiang Xing and Feng Ruping had been reunited. However, they had been separated for a long time, so they still felt a little distant.
Saving Feng Ruping was only his responsibility as a son.
Now that she had been rescued, Xiang Xing had resolved his filial responsibility as a son. It was time for him to enter the calamity and fight for fate.
As for Xiang Bang, he had complicated feelings for his father.
"I'm going to the Northern Region," Xiang Xing said in a deep voice.
"Mother will accompany you," Feng Ruping said softly.
"There's no need. I'm going to enter the calamity and fight for fate."
Xiang Xing refused.
He looked at Xiang Bang, who was walking over, and said with a complicated expression, "All that scheming was to surpass the bottleneck of the Divine realm? What a pity, you were one step short."
After a moment of silence, Xiang Bang said, "You can't be successful without suffering. Among your brothers and sisters, I value you the most."
"I had planned to ask the Feng family for the fire-element cultivation method and the Feng family's secret technique after I broke through. I didn't expect you to encounter another opportunity."
Whether Xiang Bang was telling the truth or not, it did not matter to Xiang gan.
"I'm born with the fiery bones physique, not the fire element physique," Xiang Xing corrected him.
"If you want to truly surpass the Divine realm, this calamity is your opportunity. It's up to you to make the most of it."
Xiang Xing did not continue.
He turned into a streak of light and flew away, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Feng Ruping glared at Xiang Bang and said angrily, "It's all your fault for treating my son so badly!"
"Pampering him would only have turned him into a wastrel."
Xiang Bang chuckled.
"You wanted to return the favor to the Feng family, and you've already done so. Let's go."
He turned back to look at the Feng family and sighed. "Fengkon, what a pity."
The Northern Region of the Southern Zone.
After Xiang Xing and Wang Luo arrived, they began to activate the great formation to block the invasion of the blood fiend race, weakening and thinning the blood-colored spiritual energy.
Chu Xuan was still thinking about the reincarnation cycle. The Northern Zone was changing, so were the Ghost and Buddha worlds.
From time to time, a cloud of ghostly spiritual energy would emerge from the River of Styx and float out, transforming into ghostly creatures that did not look like humans.
Instead, they came in a variety of shapes and forms. The only thing they had in common was that they had ghostly bodies and belonged to the ghost race.
These new life forms were weak, like wild beasts.
They could be called the wild beasts of the Ghost World.
There were ghosts by the River of Styx, capturing these wild beasts from for food.
"They can be called ghost beasts," Chu Xuan muttered to himself.
These ghost beasts were formed from the Reincarnation Dao law of the Heavenly Dao. They were reincarnated from the dead creatures of the Northern Zone and were reborn in the River of Styx.
Due to the incompleteness of the Reincarnation Dao law, after transferring the dead creatures into the River of Styx, there was a lack of channels and bridges for reincarnation.
This needed time to be perfected, and would have to wait until his Reincarnation Dao principle evolved into a nascent Great Dao principle.
Chu Xuan began to focus on tempering and improving the Reincarnation Dao law, as well as the advancement of the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan.
The Central Region of the Western Zone.
Ding Yue and Xiao Liang led the human cultivators to fight against the blood fiend race.
At the same time, they continuously weakened the blood-colored spiritual energy.
However, there was so much blood-colored spiritual energy, so the progress almost seemed negligible.
The blood fiend race had started to focus on nurturing their geniuses.
Now that both sides had entered a stalemate, the scale and frequency of the battles had reduced. The main battle was concentrated between the geniuses of the two sides.
Chu Xuan noticed the changes in the blood fiend race.
The blood fiend race of the Western Zone was beginning to develop and evolve into a true intelligent race. Soon, they would be able to compete with the other races for fate and vie for the position of an overlord race of the nine zones.
Perhaps the blood fiend race had already discovered the essence of the Great Daoyuan calamity.
