Chapter 70 News from the God King
After breaking into the Four Extremes, Chai Xin went straight to the Southern Region. He found a base of Wanchu Holy Land in the Southern Region and used the Domain Gate to come directly to the capital of Yan State.
Chai Xin originally wanted to go straight to Jinxia Cave Heaven, but was hindered by some rumors.
There were cultivators discussing at the domain gate, saying that the God King of the Jiang Family from four thousand years ago in the Northern Domain suddenly reappeared, but he was skinny and looked like he had run out of energy.
Many old enemies surfaced one after another, and thirteen Saint-level figures joined forces to launch an attack on the old God King.
However, no one expected that all this was the plan of the God King.
The God King, who was at the end of his rope, suddenly regained his former might and power, and killed the Thirteen Holy Lords in the blink of an eye. He even killed some of the immortals who survived that year!
Finally, there is the Dark Night King, one of the Twin Kings of Zhongzhou four thousand years ago, who had already successfully cut off the Dao. He brought an unknown imperial soldier to avenge his brother who died at the hands of the God King.
Despite this, it was still refined by the old God King using the Hengyu Furnace, and the Jidao Emperor Weapon he held also escaped!
Chai Xin was overwhelmed by what he heard, and hurried forward to salute and ask, "Excuse me, everyone, do you know what happened to the old God King?"
Seeing his extraordinary bearing, several people hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "I heard that it was a heavenly calamity that came. He fought against the thunder calamity for seven days and seven nights, and finally disappeared in the thunder calamity..."
"Disappear? What does that mean?" Chai Xin was stunned.
"He just disappeared. There has been no news about him since then... Some people say that he may have failed to survive the thunder tribulation and turned into ashes."
"What nonsense! How could the God King die in the heavenly calamity when he has the Supreme Emperor's weapon in his hands? He most likely returned to the Jiang family and hid behind the scenes."
"What do you know? The extreme emperor's soldiers are strong, but how can they help people overcome the calamity? If that were the case, how could those holy places and families with emperor's soldiers have so many geniuses die in the calamity?"
As they talked, they actually started arguing, and no one could agree on the fate of the God-King.
"He killed thirteen Holy Lords and the King of Darkness, but he mysteriously disappeared in the end..."
Chai Xin bowed and said goodbye, but his brows were still furrowed.
However, he did not think that Jiang Taixu was dead. After all, he was a great divine body. Even if he could not withstand the heavenly calamity, he would not be smashed to ashes without leaving any trace.
"I hope he is safe and sound."
In the end, he could only pray like this. After all, no one could do anything about this kind of thing, and no one could save others from disaster.
This was also the reason why Fairy Caiyun was so concerned about the God King, but still hadn't gone to meet him. If the God King himself couldn't resist the heavenly tribulation, she would have only added to his psychological burden if she went there.
"Forget it, let's go see the other master first. If the Divine King is okay, we will definitely meet again someday."
Chai Xin put aside all distractions, soared into the air, and flew towards the Jinxia Cave.
It had been more than two years since he saw Li Ying again. What surprised Chai Xin was that she not only did not age, but instead looked much younger. She looked like a beautiful woman in her early forties, and he almost didn't recognize her.
"Thanks to your bottle of spiritual spring, not only did it extend my life, it even helped me break through to the Dao Palace Secret Realm! By the way, Xin'er, what realm are you in now?"
The two sat in the bamboo forest, both filled with emotion. Although more than two years was not a long time, a lot of things had happened, and it felt like a lifetime ago.
"I am grateful to Master for teaching me how to achieve what I have today."
Chai Xin did not say it very clearly, for fear of shocking the other party. He just sincerely asked about the old man's recent situation and whether he needed anything.
Li Ying was very satisfied. With the magical spring to extend his life, and after breaking into the Taoist Palace, his life span increased further. There was even hope for further progress. He had nothing else to ask for.
"I have everything I need. You must take good care of yourself when you are out there. When you feel tired, come back to Master to rest."
"The most fortunate thing in my life is to have you two disciples..."
Finally, the two talked about Zhang Ziling again.
He came back once half a year ago, having already entered the Dao Palace realm, and brought many gifts. However, he left in a hurry after staying for two days, as if he was quite busy.
The master and the apprentice talked a lot. Although they had been apart for a long time, they were still as close as before. Chai Xin stayed for seven days, and finally left the old man a jade bottle of divine spring, more than ten magical herbs obtained from the enemy, and three thousand kilograms of source, and then left again.
These things are enough for ordinary cultivators to cultivate to perfection in the Dao Palace.
"Who would have thought that I would encounter such a blessing at the end of my life...they are both good kids!"
The next morning, Li Ying looked at the room full of dazzling gifts and the letter on the table, and her eyes couldn't help but flash with a sparkling light.
"I just hope you'll be safe and sound, and turn misfortune into fortune."
Half a day later, in the western part of Jin State.
A black-robed figure came walking in the air, looking at the endless fire still burning in front of him, with a flash of reminiscence in his eyes.
"Fire Territory, here I come again."
Chai Xin murmured and rushed straight into the sea of fire.
As soon as he stepped into the first layer of red flames, he paused.
From afar, one could vaguely see dozens of figures wearing armor and riding various wild beasts, scattered in the red sea of fire, constantly patrolling and wandering, as if looking for something.
"That kid named Ye has already rushed into the sixth layer of the fire zone. It has been more than a year. I am afraid he has been reduced to ashes for a long time. Why should we still guard here and suffer in vain..."
"It is said that he has secretly learned the secret techniques from the Ji family's imperial scripture. The elders of the clan have issued a kill order. We must find him alive or dead!"
"There was such a big commotion half a year ago, even the Holy Lord came in person. It seems that a great elder died. Could it be that boy who did it?"
"How is that possible? Even if that guy is a hundred times stronger, the Grand Elder can easily kill him! I heard that he is a Taoist priest named Crow, who has lived for more than a thousand years and has extremely terrifying cultivation."
Several knights were riding wild beasts out of boredom and chatting with each other in low voices.
"Ye Fan, Taoist Crow... It's been so long, he has probably sneaked into the Northern Territory."
Chai Xin couldn't help but sigh at the strong inertia of the plot. He just didn't know how the original plot, which was completely changed by himself, would develop after Ye Fan went to the Northern Territory.
"Who is coming?"
It was not until then that the knights noticed Chai Xin's figure and immediately surrounded him.
Chai Xin didn't bother to pay attention and simply turned into a shadow and rushed deeper.
"Warning, someone rushed in!"
"Report quickly!"
These knights were only responsible for guarding the periphery, so their strength was naturally not strong. Upon seeing the situation, they hurriedly sent a message to the depths of the fire region.
Chai Xin performed the Heavenly Dragon Technique, and the purple energy on his body gathered into a faint purple dragon. His speed was extremely fast, and no one could match him. He passed through four layers of fire domains in succession and reached the fifth layer of golden area.
"After arriving here, I only felt a little hot. The progress in the past two years is indeed huge."
The golden fire area was nothing to him. He did not stop but continued to go deeper.
"Stop whoever comes!"
But at this moment, a burly figure appeared at the end of the fifth level of the fire area, blocking Chai Xin's way.
