"Overlord aura?"
Fang Zhaoge scratched his head. Even with years of experience of knowledge from the simulations, he had no idea what that was.
Li Tianwen, on the other hand, was moved. He looked at Fang Zhaoge up and down. The more he looked at him, the more pleased he became.
"Indeed! For a disciple of mine to have the aura of an Overlord…"
"Wait, master, I really have no idea what that means!"
Li Tianwen looked at him in disdain, "Of course you wouldn't. Who the hell expects a strange kid like you to know?"
Fang Zhaoge's mouth twitched. Alright, just tell me what it is, master, isn't that easy? Do you have to reprimand me like this?
"You child. Your mother told you everything you needed to know about when she held you in her womb for 500 years, right?"
Li Mengzhi nodded. She wryly smiled when her father looked up to the moon. The soft, shining, mellow white glow always reminded her father of her mother's shining white hair.
The stars reminded him of her eyes and the soft gushes of the night, took him back when her mother used to play him her zither.
Li Tianwen silently controlled his qi, moving the qi lake so intricately every droplet of water turned into different colors from reflecting the moonlight. Then, they slowly merged, creating a picture of a cold white-haired woman with eyes as bright as the blue sky.
The starry-eyed man smiled softly. He moved a hand, as if stroking the hair of the nigh-perfect being made up from countless droplets of water.
"We've been together for hundreds of years, yet, just a parting of one and a half decades could make me so desperate…"
At the side, Fang Zhaoge silently looked at his master. Just a billionth billionth of his aura could make the world tremble. His heart shook. Even that shameless old fossil Shit Zhu wasn't so overbearing, right?
"Li Mengzhi, your father has reached it."
Li Mengzhi's heart shook. Her eyes widened as she looked at her father. The concealed sharpness, if unleashed, probably could cut the world in half with just a gentle tap.
"Dad, I–"
"Stay. You're not qualified enough to go."
Li Tianwen's voice was cold. His starry eyes turned black, like a black hole that sucked up everything, even celestial bodies can't escape.
"Father, your…?"
"That's why I told you every time, you're too smart, my Xiao Zhi. You knew things even cultivators countless times stronger than you hadn't known yet. But that's fine. We don't have to be so desperate anymore."
From Li Tianwen's black sleeve, a simple white sword materialized from a mysterious source. Just a mere tilt of it could initiate a blinding light from the sky as if the world itself wanted him to go.
It cannot handle such pressure!
Li Tianwen looked up, then he glanced at the dumbfounded Fang Zhaoge.
Yes, Fang Zhaoge was shocked! Simulations did not show this. Li Tianwen had always been on the run from the immortal clan. He was desperate. But his master in the present is calm, as if nothing would happen at all.
This… What does this mean?
It means that even Li Tianwen is not something the system could predict! Just what kind of being his master truly is?
"Kid Ge, when you surpass Xiao Zhi, I hope you can take care of her. You were meant for something that even I can't grasp yet. We'll meet again when you reach a certain realm. I'll greet you up there."
Li Mengzhi tugged his sleeve reluctantly, but Li Tianwen did not look back. He merely smiled in content and waved his sword, and the world trembled!
It trembled from its core!
"Ji Yentian, heed my words! I, Li Tianwen, shall shake the Immortal World with my sword! And I'll be taking my wife back from you!!!"
Li Tianwen laughed gleefully as his figure shot up, and the Sword Peak almost crumbled from his careless ascend!
The whole world was covered by a blinding light, as if the world was bidding farewell to a being with utmost reverence and respect!
Countless figures looked up in awe and reverence. Only when the world itself acknowledged and respected a figure would such a phenomenon appear!
Within a dark corner of the world, a 15 feet tall, bulky figure with purple skin, void eyes and a pair of thusk-like horns was jolted awake from the commotion.
His void eyes widened in disbelief as he abruptly stood up and looked up at the shining light. He froze like a deer that got caught by a lion.
"You're telling me, that person has always been in this world?"
The bulky figure froze in fear. After a few minutes of silence, he abruptly turned around and a crack within the space materialized. Even though there was nothing that threatened him, it was as if he would give everything just to enter the crack as he rushed forward crazily.
"I won't come back even if you give me a damn essence of matter! Why the f*ck would you ask me to face such a being and anything related to him you sick f*ck!!!"
The subsidiary forces of the immortal world, on the other hand, looked up grimly. They could feel the cold sweats on his back.
"...Move!"
"Tell them quickly!"
With just a wave of his sword, Li Tianwen made the whole world turn restless!
Li Mengzhi looked up in sadness. Other than her mother, her father was the closest kin she had. Now that he ascended, even though she knew she could ascend within a matter of months, she still felt sad.
It was because she always had been staying together with either of them her whole life. She had stayed in her mother's womb and absorbed her warmth for over 500 years!
"Mother told me that cultivators have to move forward and defy the heavens…"
Soon, her heroic eyes shone with determination. She took in a deep breath before she focused on her Junior Brother.
Her gloominess was swept away as she giggled, looking at the dumbfounded Fang Zhaoge who gaped so wide even a ball could enter.
"My master is literally defying the heavens!"
Even an existence such as a system that could provide 100x divinity could not understand his master! The simulations never mentioned that his master would ascend heroically!
"My master is so awesome!"
"Dad is indeed very awesome!"
Fang Zhaoge glanced at Li Mengzhi. He's not unfamiliar with her. No, it could be said that he knew her well.
After all, the one that accompanied him as he explored the world was her. These memories portrayed clearly the beauty and the gentleness this 16 years old girl had. He also knew that she had been conscious within her mother's womb for 502 years.
There's a reason why Li Tianwen was amazed by him. It's not that Li Mengzhi was overlooked. It's because she's technically over 518 years old!
Not to mention the various teachings of her mother whose background was so high even a person as powerful as Li Tianwen could only let her go when she was forced to go back.
Fang Zhaoge thought a lot as Li Mengzhi looked back at him. She smiled mischievously.
"Well, I guess I only have Junior Brother as a company, then?"
"It is my pleasure."
Fang Zhaoge mocked a respectful gesture as he bowed gentlemanly, and Li Mengzhi giggled again. Then she waved out a three-feet sword from her robe. Her eyes were locked on him as she smiled.
"Then, Junior Brother Ge, why don't you demonstrate your skills to me? Although Father said that you'll surpass me, you're currently way weaker than me! Maybe I could teach you a thing or two."
Fang Zhaoge's brows twitched. Her father had just left, but she immediately instigated a spar?
Actually, his physical body was comparable to the power of Nascent Soul's physical body. Yes, he also just found out.
Turns out, quadrillions of tonnes of combat strength are actually just a peak Nascent Soul's physical strength! It also shook his heart. He truly underestimates cultivators!
Of course, their physical strength would stop improving when they reached the Divine Soul realm. That's why people say that the first five realms of cultivation are to build the foundation!
The body is like a container, and various forces and powers such as the soul, divinity, qi, and others are what must be contained within a body. It was especially so at the Soul Formation realm, where they will form elements within their soul to strengthen it!
The reason the first five realms have these so-called 'limits' is because they have stages after the 10th stage! The more extreme a foundation is, the higher their standing would be in the future.
While the body contained qi, the soul contained divinity! Both of them complemented each other. Fang Zhaoge couldn't help but curse, that damn master of mine actually didn't explain them!
"Where's your sword, Junior Brother?"
Li Mengzhi was puzzled. She stared at the dazed Fang Zhaoge.
Fang Zhaoge blinked and answered, "My strongest power is my fists, Senior Sister. However, about this spar… Senior Sister, isn't this too much for me?"
"Just call me Sister Zhi, and too much? I don't think so!"
Unfortunately, this Sister did not give him any time to refute. She wordlessly shoots forward! Her sword moved, performing an intricate slash!
Fang Zhaoge widened. It's actually the second slash right off the bat! He cursed. Even a gentle girl like Li Mengzhi could be cunning! She definitely performed the first slash beforehand when he didn't look!
He instinctively used the Demon Relentless Fists, his arms moved unconsciously as they performed an unstoppable punch! This is the use of receiving those memories!
Li Mengzhi's face still has a cheeky smile. But when her sword clashed with Fang Zhaoge's fist, her face drastically changed.
She tried to deflect her sword, but the force was too immense! In the end, she was forced back by a fist from him.
Li Mengzhi's heart was shaken again. A Qi Refinement junior could repel her head on while she used a second slash? She's a Divine Soul expert with an extreme foundation!
Fang Zhaoge was surprised, but not too much. The Demon Relentless Fists is a high-level peak god combat technique! Just a stage away from the Pseudo Immortal technique! Especially since he already reached Entry.
In fact, just by those two exchanges, the accumulated proficiency of the Demon Relentless Fists from the memories from the simulation and quality Absolute Pioneer, his proficiency already reached Adept!
If they exchanged moves again, perhaps his Senior Sister would be blown away if she used the second slash…
A Qi Refinement junior comprehended a high-level peak god combat technique! People wouldn't believe it. They won't even be shocked, they just knew it was impossible!
After a moment of silence, Li Mengzhi said with a soft tone, "Junior Brother, was that...?"
"Yes. Master gave me the Demon Relentless Fists the other day."
Li Mengzhi's eye twitched. Her father gave a Qi Refinement junior a high-level peak god technique. Is it that her insight was too short, or her father that valued him so much?
"And you could use it?"
"I reached Adept from this fight. Thank you for your kindness, Sister Zhi!"
It's already messed up her mind if he reached Entry, but he actually reached Adept? Li Mengzhi was so irritated that she started to perform the third slash.
Fang Zhaoge couldn't even react before Li Mengzhi's delicate figure once again appeared before him. With his now Adept proficiency, he could propel her back again!
Now even Li Mengzhi started to get riled up. When she fought, many people called her ss the Mad Fairy!
And Fang Zhaoge also knew of this!
So when her heroic eyes started to turn cold as she performed the fourth slash, Fang Zhaoge straight up lay down on the floor like a sandbag. Despite being completely fine, he shouted desperately.
"Sister Zhi, you win! You win! I'm too weak to challenge my Senior Sister! Argh!"
But the woman did not listen! Fang Zhaoge cursed himself to death as he abruptly stood up and ran away crazily from her. Who told him to tease the infamous Mad Fairy?!
The chase went on for about an hour. That happened only because Fang Zhaoge got a boost from his Bloodthirsty quality. At the end of the hour, Li Mengzhi went completely mad and unleashed the fifth slash!
"F*ck!"
Thus, once again, a miserable Fang Zhaoge flew high into the sky before falling into the qi lake with a deafening explosion. Li Mengzhi gradually came to her senses and she gasped when Fang Zhaoge's body helplessly floated on the qi lake.
"Junior Brother, I've gone overboard!"
'No sh*t!'
Fang Zhaoge tried to curse, but Li Mengzhi was too charming for him to openly do so. So he buried it deep in his heart.
"It's fine, it's fine…"
He heard a crack when he flew up. I wonder, could that be my knees…?
