Chapter 2220 God King 2

“Hey, I’m talking properly, too! If you are worried that there isn’t enough time or you don’t want the commitments that come along with it, you can do it in a dream. You will be able to make as many babies as you want right away as long as you create the right environment,” Little Chick replied.

The God Monarchs had the ability to create transient dreams through formations.

That kind of formation would place an individual within a dreamscape where time was accelerated. It would only take a few hours for one to live an entire lifetime within the dream.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought.

To be frank, it was a plausible solution. It was a dream anyway, so it should not count as anything.

But he was only twenty years old. If he lived a lifetime in a dream at such an age, he would be a completely different person by the time he returned. He would have lost his youthful spirit and his hot-bloodedness.

Furthermore, once he had a wife and a child in a dream, regardless of whether it was a dream or not, it would be unfair to Luo Ruoxin.

So, he shook his head and asked once more, “Do you have any other ideas in mind?”

“Tsk.” Little Chick clicked its tongue in annoyance before replying. “How troublesome. Well, you might not have any children, but you do have quite a lot of disciples. As they say, a day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father. Your sentiments for them can probably rival those of their parents, so it might work if you can comprehend it from such a perspective.”

It really could not stand that blockhead of a master.

He has such a beautiful young lady who’s devoted to him, but he simply refuses to grasp the opportunity. It serves him right to be single! Humph!

Ah, wait a moment, I’m also a single chick… At least this darned fellow has someone who likes him, but I don’t even have a chicken or duck that is into me…

Little Chick sank to the ground in depression.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xuan’s thoughts were triggered into action after hearing those words. “A day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father…”

He was unable to comprehend the feelings of a parent because he was without a child, but there was no denying that he cared and doted on his students quite a lot.

He was willing to do anything just so that they could lead a better life, and he would not hesitate to stand up for them if anyone dared take advantage of them. Despite that, there was not a single moment when he thought that he was sacrificing himself for their sake.

On the contrary, as long as they were doing well, he felt fulfilled and content.

Were these the feelings that parents had toward their children?

As Zhang Xuan thought of this, the smiles of the Xingmeng Sword Saints surfaced in his mind.

There were many times when they had stood in front of him to protect him from danger, even when they were weaker than him. Nothing could shake their conviction to keep him safe, and they would do anything for his sake.

Those were the sentiments of a parent, the deepest and noblest love in the world.

The act of humbly supporting their child, not expecting anything in return.

Thread in the hand of a compassionate mother, clothes on a wanderlust son. Just before his departure she sewed closely, in her mind worrying about his late return. How could the inch-high grass ever repay the nourishing sunshine of spring?

An emotion rippled through Zhang Xuan’s heart as his zhenqi began circulating throughout his body along with his words. At the same time, sword qi began to form and revolve around his body, slicing through the distorting space.

“He is comprehending his cultivation technique and sword art together?” Little Chick remarked in bewilderment.

Having followed its master for quite some time now, it knew that its master would usually comprehend his cultivation technique first before figuring out the corresponding sword art. Yet, he was actually comprehending both together this time.

The wind batters unceasingly on the unwilling tree, a son seeks to be filial, but time slips through his fingers…

His sword qi was filled with both indignation and melancholic longing.

In his previous life, his parents had died prematurely, so he had never been able to meet them before. In this lifetime, he had been so wrapped up by everything around him that the time he spent together with parents was miserably limited.

He could not fully understand what it was like to be a son, but he could imagine his parents’ worry for him.

It would be similar to how he felt for his students.

His eleven students were divided across the Nine Skies, and it would be a lie if he said that he was not worried about them. By taking on such a perspective, he could see just how worried and conflicted they must feel about him.

They did not wish to tie down their child and limit his future, but at the same time, they could not bear to see him braving so many dangers.

This was the contradictory feeling of a parent, the sentiments they felt for their children!

Hu!

Without any hesitation, Zhang Xuan took out the Pill King and swallowed it.

Rich medicinal energy flooded his body. Through circulating the medicinal energy around his body, he refined it into Pathos of Heaven zhenqi and deposited it into his dantian.

The Pill King contained the purest medicinal energy contained within the Grass of God Kings, harnessing almost as much power as a real God King. His dantian, which had emptied out due to the depletion of his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, filled up at an incredible pace.

Kacha!

As his dantian was filled up, he finally overcame the bottleneck in his zhenqi cultivation and rose to the level of a God King.

Zhang Xuan’s aura surged like a majestic dragon rising from the seas, transforming into something deeper and stronger.

Some time later, the fluctuations of his energy finally came to a halt.

Zhang Xuan exhaled deeply before rising to his feet.

He had successfully reached the God King realm, but he was only at primary stage. He had simply depleted too much energy before, and the Pathos of Heaven’s requirement on the purity of the spiritual energy was also too steep. If he wanted to reach God King realm pinnacle, he would need at least several pills on the level of the Pill King.

The fact that the Pill King was able to fill his massive dantian and allow him to raise his cultivation to the God King realm was evidence of its rich medicinal energy.

I should keep the three remaining God King Breakthrough Pill for my parents and Sun Qiang, Zhang Xuan thought with a smile.

It would indeed raise his cultivation if he swallowed them, but the effects would not be too apparent. It might not even be enough for him to reach God King realm intermediate stage. They would be put to better use with his parents and Sun Qiang!

Zhang Xuan examined the changes in his body as a result of his breakthrough, and he found that his zhenqi had become even purer. At the same time, his zhenqi capacity had also increased considerably.

He would not have to worry about running out of zhenqi quickly anymore.

“Let’s go!”

Knowing that there was no need to worry anymore after making a breakthrough, Zhang Xuan took out the God King Sword and swung it lightly.

It swiftly generated several surges of sword qi that warped around their bodies to form a protective barrier.

This was the God King realm sword art that he had comprehended from the Pathos of Heaven—Filial Piety.

The sword art contained the emotions of regret and longing.

So what if his cultivation was high? So what if he was rich?

It was easy to put his parents in second place in his list of priorities in order to pursue all else, but it would be too late by the time he finally wanted to accompany them.

This was simply how humans were. They always put off things that they should be doing until it was too late, and they blamed themselves regretfully for not cherishing what they had.

…

Hu!

Little Chick and Luo Qiqi entered the barrier of sword qi as well, and the three of them began venturing through the gray wall.

The gray currents of energy ahead of them were sliced apart by Zhang Xuan’s Sword Intent, allowing them to venture forward without any issues.

They had to travel for almost an hour before they were finally out of the gray wall. It was also at this point that they came to a halt.

They had come to the end of the road, and there was nowhere else to advance to. The space ahead of them was utterly sealed.

“Let me see if I can reach the Azure from here,” Zhang Xuan said as he took out the Seal of Supreme Monarch.

He infused his consciousness into it, and the inscriptions carved on the seal swiftly lit up. Energy quickly surged through the entire seal.

“It’s working!” Zhang Xuan exclaimed in delight.

He could already sense Du Qingyuan answering from the Azure.

“Have Du Qingyuan conduct a ritual for my descent.”

Without any hesitation, Zhang Xuan immediately sent a set of instructions over to the other side.

Azure, here I come!
