Chapter 321: My Goodness, This Egg Was Born From The Heavenly Dao!
For a time, except for Ming Zhaoshuang who was still fighting with Ming Zhu, everyone else began to cultivate.
Ming Zhaoshuang’s mid-stage Nascent Soul, which had felt somewhat unstable, gradually became more solid with each sword strike, and the spiritual power in her hands seemed to become more brilliant and dazzling.
They stayed like this for another month.
Finally, Ming Zhaoshuang withdrew her sword, but she could not even break through half a piece of Ming Zhu’s skin.
But she smiled with a hint of joy, “No more fighting, no more fighting. I have important matters to attend to, and if I keep fighting, I won’t make it in time.”
Although this sparring partner was both noble and rare, and could adjust his sword qi according to her progress every time, allowing her to be at a level where she could barely use Chaos Without Limit to devour his sword intent, she could not indulge in pleasure.
She still had many things to do.
Ming Zhu asked, “Are you trying to get Yellow Springs Water?”
Ming Zhaoshuang smiled and said, “That’s only part of it. I also want to see the laboratory where this Immortal Embryo is being cultivated, and seek justice for the woman imprisoned here.”
“But you are only in the Nascent Soul stage now.”
“It’s okay, I can collect evidence first, and then find these people to settle scores when I become powerful.”
“No one wants you to become powerful.”
“Don’t you? Otherwise, why would you, a dignified Immortal Crossing, come here to be my sparring partner for no reason?”
Suddenly, Ming Zhaoshuang remembered something and said, “Was it you who stopped Emperor Fengdu’s reinforcements for Tian Hong?”
Despite all her calculations, there was always an oversight.
In a place like Youdu Mountain, even with formation suppression, ordinary communication methods would not work, and she could not call for backup. Otherwise, how could Eldest Young Lady Shen Yuyin endure this humiliation with her temper.
But since Emperor Fengdu dared to set up the Calamity-Protecting Long Sha Formation in this place, he must have had some special emergency measures.
Yet, until Tian Hong’s death, they had not seen anyone.
“Yes, and I killed them along the way.”
Ming Zhu responded nonchalantly.
His reply was so casual that Ming Zhaoshuang couldn’t help but glance at him, “No…wrong, did you kill a Tribulation Crossing cultivator or a late Mahayana stage cultivator?”
Isn’t this wrong?
The Immortal Crossing cultivators from their Ghost Realm are not protecting the Ghost Realm, but are instead protecting her, someone they’ve only met once, and are even being her sparring partner, which is strange, isn’t it?
Ming Zhu scoffed, “A place like the Underworld, how could they bear to send out a Tribulation Crossing cultivator?”
As everyone knows, Tribulation Crossing cultivators are the fewest in the entire cultivation world in the Underworld. Even among the Ten Yama Kings, three or four are in the Mahayana stage, and they can’t even gather ten.
Emperor Fengdu must have been reluctant to part with them.
With that said, Ming Zhaoshuang felt relieved, but one thing still puzzled her: “Are you… on our side?”
“No.”
Ming Zhu refused decisively, “I never take anyone’s side. I’m just repaying a debt of gratitude to someone.”
Ming Zhaoshuang was curious, “Who, is it Feng He?”
Most of her fortuitous encounters were related to Feng He, so she couldn’t bear to ask too many questions now.
“No,” Ming Zhu said, “but if you want to handle this matter, I won’t interfere.”
This matter, of course, referred to the cultivation of the Immortal Embryo.
Ming Zhaoshuang smiled upon hearing this, “Really? Then you won’t protect the interests of the Underworld?”
This way, it would be easier for her to act.
Cultivating an Immortal Embryo is against human ethics. This matter is too great, its impact even more significant than what happened at the Fifth Prince’s Residence in the Demon Realm.
The Fifth Prince of the Demon Realm could be said to be a case of personal misconduct and evil intentions within the imperial family, but this matter is being led by Emperor Fengdu. If it were to be exposed, the entire Underworld would face questioning from the Six Realms.
This is great.
It’s just a pity that she cannot stand up for these mortal women now. Even if Ming Zhu doesn’t interfere, she doesn’t have the strength, so she can only place her hope on Lapis Lazuli Azure Sea behind Shen Yuyin.
Seeing her like this, Ming Zhu became somewhat interested, “You’re happy?”
Ming Zhaoshuang said, “Absolutely.”
Ming Zhu then said, “That’s good.”
Just as Ming Zhaoshuang was about to say something else, she saw Ming Zhu tap her forehead, as if injecting something into her sea of consciousness, “Your move, Primordial Beginning of the Great Void, is excellent. If you have other sword intents in the future, this Seat will also open its eyes to witness them.”
“Do you want to be my sparring partner?”
“It’s not certain who will be whose sparring partner,” Ming Zhu said lightly, “To be able to witness a sword technique containing Primordial Qi is also my good fortune.”
Ming Zhaoshuang was confused.
Of course, she knew about Primordial Qi, a special energy left from the very beginning of heaven and earth. It was more powerful than anything in this world. The Divine Race grew from this energy, and it could be said to be the key to their gestation. However, after the end of the ancient times, no one had ever seen it again.
Her sword intent actually contained Primordial Qi?
She knew that Primordial Beginning of the Great Void was strong, but from Ming Zhu’s words, it seemed to be incredibly strong.
Just as she wanted to ask, Ming Zhu had already moved a thousand meters away.
Just when Ming Zhaoshuang thought he was leaving, he suddenly turned back and said to Ming Zhaoshuang:
“Please give my regards to that stupid cat in your sea of consciousness, and tell him: there’s no need to hide from me. I’m different from him; I don’t eat people.”
Ming Zhaoshuang: “…”
She suddenly remembered Sang Biao, whom she had proactively asked to retract earlier. His foolish appearance really fit the description.
She wondered why the mighty Lord Sang Biao would flee from battle. It turned out that he had met an old acquaintance, but that acquaintance had already become a high and mighty Immortal Crossing, while his cultivation had dropped to the mid-stage Mahayana. He didn’t dare to meet him.
Therefore, she specifically pulled out Sang Biao, who was acting foolishly, from her sea of consciousness.
“You know the Immortal Crossing Ming Zhu?”
Sang Biao covered his ears, “Don’t know, don’t know, Mimi doesn’t know.”
Ming Zhaoshuang: “Really?”
Sang Biao: “More true than pearls.”
Ming Zhaoshuang: “I don’t believe you.”
Sang Biao: “Master, you really have to believe me, I really don’t know him.”
Ming Zhaoshuang: “Your dried fish will be halved, and you can forget about eating these people.”
Sang Biao: “Okay, okay, I do know him! But it’s only because we are both divine beasts that I know him a little bit. When Feng Budu came to kill him before, I helped him block a few times and almost lost my life, so that’s why he helped us, right?”
“But he still called me a stupid cat! I’m a tiger, not a cat!!”
Lord Sang Biao was born during the War of the Gods and Phoenix Clan. His egg was damaged, which not only affected his intelligence but also caused him to take nearly ten thousand years to hatch.
However, Lord Sang Biao was a tenacious beast. With his brute spiritual power, he became a king in a mountain range.
Then he ate and drank for tens of thousands of years.
He is a divine beast, so he can live for a very long time even without cultivation. Thus, Lord Sang Biao remained very complacent, living for tens of thousands of years while still only being in the late Integration Stage.
The late Integration Stage was the limit for divine beasts, but not for Lord Sang Biao.
Later, he encountered the eggs of two dragons, Ming Zhu and Ao Tian.
There were actually divine beasts other than Lord Sang Biao in this world. He was extremely curious, so he looked around everywhere, but he couldn’t see anything different about this egg.
Until, a heavenly thunder struck him.
My goodness!
This egg was born from the Heavenly Dao!
