Refreshing!
Ning Zheng silently felt the immense vitality within his body.
Wood element, gentle and nourishing, close to nature.
Ning Zheng suddenly felt his body wrapped in a warm, moist energy, very comfortable.
The wood element mostly follows the path of the Spirit Farmer, and Jiu Shui’s Spiritual Root is akin to Shennong among Spirit Farmers.
Shennong grows a hundred herbs!
Focusing on super growth.
Ning Zheng felt he was already a humanoid pot, capable of planting seeds of wood element spiritual roots, evolving, growing, and developing into nine branches, then selecting a branch’s seed to continue the cycle.
"What a pity, I can only cultivate wood element Tao Flowers."
"Pairing with the Star-Forming River can change the Spirit Root attribute, which would be a qualitative change... but I can’t possibly have the Star-Forming River myself; just let Su Yuniang, with her Sun and Moon functionality, handle it."
"But even so, it’s enough. As long as my luck is a bit better, all nine wood elements are supportive, restorative, and storage types, enough to greatly increase my power and strengthen my foundation!"
Different types of spiritual roots for different tasks.
Ning Zheng didn’t have the thought of developing nine combat wood element spiritual roots.
Combat-type wood elements would be a waste; recovery is their specialty.
For combat, why not use other specialized spiritual roots?
After all, he’s a Seven Colors Spiritual Root, using wood element specifically for logistics, providing enormous backup for this super terrifying life form.
And Ning Zheng began trying to use this wood element Qi Fortune Divine Power to perform some neighboring Qi Fortune Spells.
As a result, he found it very clumsy, and most didn’t work.
"Different attributes... different operation routes too."
Ning Zheng thought to himself:
"However, with some modifications, the wood element Qi Fortune Divine Power should also be able to use the neighboring seven major destiny professions."
Currently, he’s managed to develop three Five Elements Spirit Roots in one go, already very close to perfection.
Missing fire, earth.
For the fire element, prepare to modify the firewood.
For the earth element, combine Shadow Devouring Dragon Emperor + Flash, and see if it can synthesize.
"It will cost Qi Fortune again, but fortunately, I have Qi Fortune! Winning over in the neighboring Celestial Destiny World means at least nothing major will happen in the short term."
Ning Zheng shook his body and walked into the plaza of the manor, finding the blacksmith still busy.
...
Celestial Destiny World.
Three hundred years ago, in that battle, Emperor Zangwu was successfully imprisoned.
But he was a straightforward man, accepting defeat with grace, very bold.
As long as there was wine and meat, he would say anything, revealing his cultivation techniques and details.
And the Night God Banquet often visited the prison, drinking and chatting with him.
Although the Night Emperor watched this with displeasure, he didn’t say anything.
It’s not that he feared his son being led astray, but children must become independent, and if he were so easily influenced, he’d be influenced eventually anyway...
An unpolished jade can’t be made into a useful instrument.
He was a father for the first time...
He could scheme against the world with all sorts of shady tactics, causing trouble for others.
But raising a child, caring for their emotions, troubled him a bit.
Emotions are inherently unpredictable; the Night Emperor could only leave the management to his Empress, Ye Tian’ai.
And besides, after the great war, with some free time, he was preparing to have a second child!
After all, a royal lineage with only one heir has minimal margin for error; the Ye royal family must be a big family.
Thus, he currently manages three things in the Celestial Destiny World:
1. Having a second child.
2. Using the last burst of the biological explosion era to rapidly reproduce and reshape the food chain of all living things after the terrain change.
3. Yielding the position to obtain.
Even though Emperor Zangwu revealed everything but didn’t divulge one thing: the hidden location of the sacrifice.
Although in theory, the Night Emperor could also use divination to find it... the cost would be too great.
Furthermore, if others found it first, they might betray him, as it’s an already ripe Immortal-Becoming position.
Who wouldn’t covet it?
Thus, occasionally, the Night Emperor would visit the prison, but Emperor Zangwu often shook his head and changed the subject.
On this day, Emperor Zangwu suddenly spoke: "Night Emperor, with the strength of your being, that terrifying Bronze Statue Emperor, an ordinary slightly weaker Immortal could already put up a fight."
The Night Emperor looked at him.
"This Immortal position has already used up more than half; its origin is insufficient, not suitable for someone with boundless potential like you." Emperor Zangwu said meaningfully: "Even if one became an Immortal, it’s among the weakest foundations, very hard to complete."
After all.
The essence of Xian is an evolving race.
The remaining energy is insufficient for you to perfect your race, your foundation, and various details.
Using this for body tempering might only grant you an incomplete Immortal Body.
"Whether it’s suitable or not, we’ll see once I obtain it," the Night Emperor said indifferently. "Moreover, my luck is excellent. I’m about to grasp the Celestial Destiny Divine Artifact, the [Life and Death Legacy], and create an entirely new order, a destiny line that connects all beings of the world."
"As long as luck is on my side, any lack of essence can potentially be filled."
He said coldly, "Merely the essence of Xian..."
"The essence of Xian is essentially accumulated over time, through the massive power of evolution gathered by biological mass extinctions." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"And if luck is favorable, using the causality gathered from the entire world to artificially activate Xian’s essence, wouldn’t that also be possible?"
"Can we artificially cultivate Xian like a cow, to give birth regularly, so that one immortal after another can appear periodically?"
"You primitives, your use of Xian is too primitive!"
The Night Emperor’s tone was utterly contemptuous as he described a terrifying future.
This is a dreadful future that neither the physical, nor the soul path systems can achieve. The path of destiny may not seem strong in combat power, but it is too versatile.
With immense destiny backing, opening new Dharma Methods, efficiently utilizing Xian... this is not impossible.
Emperor Zangwu’s heart and mind wavered as he widened his eyes: "You..."
"I know what you’re thinking." The Night Emperor quietly looked at him, "You’ve lost, and you are unwilling. You’ve developed a fear of the Power of Destiny, and you want to fight again."
"But you can no longer take action yourself, so you’ve set your sights on my child."
"You want to pass on all your strength to him, nurture him, make him surpass me, even hand over the real location of the Xian seat you’ve hidden, let him become immortal... and then oppose me."
"You want the Night God Banquet to become the King of Destiny in the new world and overthrow his father!"
Emperor Zangwu’s expression was grave, obviously, the Night Emperor had guessed his intentions.
"How did you guess?" Emperor Zangwu suddenly spoke.
"Because it’s simple." The Night Emperor sneered, referring to some ancient mythology of certain divine systems, nothing more than Father God battling with sons, a family war, mastering destiny divine artifacts, and then creating various divine artifacts.
This routine was too familiar to him, and he was not one of those foolish protagonists. He wanted to strangle this clichéd storyline from the source.
"Then why don’t you stop him from coming?" Emperor Zangwu said.
The Night Emperor calmly replied, "I understand human nature, but I don’t understand raising children."
Emperor Zangwu: "..."
The Night Emperor continued, "I know he has a rebellious mindset, and stopping him would only make things worse because I truly do not understand raising children... I’m good at scheming, so preventing you is the optimal solution in my eyes."
"Come, there is no need to dwell on momentary hatred."
The Night Emperor, with hands behind his back, said, "The throne of Xian shouldn’t be used in familial ethical battles, shouldn’t be wasted in your hatred, your selfish desires only create meaningless internal exhaustion in the world, expending our Heart Power in infighting."
"The Xian seat has a higher value; our research on the path of destiny is enough to affect the future of the entire world."
"The progress of civilization comes from understanding natural principles."
"In the Barbaric Era, things you deemed impossible, like soaring through the sky and burrowing into the earth, are now realized, aren’t they?"
"The use of Xian is too crude. We need to make Xian into a production line factory, analyze its roots, and create immortals one after another."
"And you, my friend, you, the great mythological emperor in the history of our world, will accompany me forward, continuing to promote the entire civilization, right?"
His expression was cold, yet it was filled with unbelievable ambition and bold vision,
"Obsessing over a single Xian seat is foolish. Why don’t we use this position to research even more immortals? By then, there will be a seat for you."
Emperor Zangwu was shocked in his heart, he was full of astonishment as he looked at this incredibly confident emperor before him, his charisma seemingly radiating brightly.
An immortal seat could indeed have a place for Emperor Zangwu!
Indeed, why dwell on hatred? In the grand journey of civilization, why should I be concerned with losing a single battle?
He had been dormant for countless ages, striving forward in mundanity, all to climb higher step by step, to look further with a voracious curiosity, to explore the breadth of life and its endless power, wasn’t he? Repeatedly shedding his skin, revising systems, all for the pursuit of truth, wasn’t it?
He had never lost before, and was in despair due to his first defeat in life, falling into self-destruction, feeling he had lost his lifetime dreams, and the immortal seat, completely forfeited.
But now, perhaps there might not be just one immortal seat, they could all ascend together.
He was deeply moved, silent for a moment: "Can you really do it?"
"This is Celestial Destiny!"
The Night Emperor said, "Why did you come into the world? It is Celestial Destiny that keeps the immortal seat available, not exhausted, leaving it for us in the Celestial Destiny Dynasty for great research!"
This is the destined fate...
Emperor Zangwu hesitated, perhaps this really is destiny, to no longer expend the Xian seat, or the next gathering might take untold ages.
"We are Heaven’s Chosen, destined to carve out an era."
He bowed his head, extending his palm, "Come, join me."
Emperor Zangwu’s pupils dilated, and then he bitterly smiled as he extended his hand to grasp his, "I will accompany you to explore the entire world."
The Night Emperor smiled, "Destiny will enable us, Heaven’s Chosen, to create a miracle even greater than myths and legends, composed of countless opportunities and coincidences."
"We will explore all extraordinary principles, leading civilization on a grand voyage!"
He led Emperor Zangwu out of the prison, a brilliant golden light showered down from above. This embodiment of celestial myth was expressing his ambition, the scene of their alliance seemed destined to reflect in eternal historical legends.
