Chapter 1701: Chapter 140: Return

Imagining oneself as a perceptive sphere might be a bit too advanced, but isn’t it possible to learn by copying others?

The greatest talent of humanity is to start by imitating others and then carve out their own path. In this, Tang Luo is full of confidence.

Piercing through the Nine Heavens and peering into the Endless Void, where countless stars wait for Tang Luo’s appreciation—is there really not a single "sphere" worthy of imitation?

Void Energy flows into the bimetallic rings, and his vision, enhanced by the faint energy, flashes brilliantly with golden light in Tang Luo’s eyes.

Even after his already astonishing vision was enhanced hundreds of times, he still couldn’t see the information he wanted.

Looking at even the nearest celestial body, he could only see its mottled surface and its fluctuating ley lines. A dead silence and calmness dominate this vast main theme.

The discontent Void Grandmaster travels further outward, where with no Spiritual Energy to obstruct him in the void, his fleeing light travels at an amazing speed.

The extreme speed brings an inexplicable pleasure, especially here in the boundless void, where the stagnant specks of dust and debris are flung behind at great speed, resembling countless shimmering thin lines.

Within the suffocating Void Dual Wheels, continually drawing in Void Energy, Tang Luo’s fleeing light becomes faster and faster.

But such swift fleeing light, set against the vastness of space, still appears very slow. As the thrill turns into impatience, the fleeing light disperses to reveal the figure of the Void Grandmaster.

Everything around him remains the same as the beginning; traversing tens of thousands of miles seems akin to marching in place. If not for the rapid shrinking of the Central Earth continent, Tang Luo would almost believe he hadn’t moved at all.

Gazing at the still distant celestial body, Tang Luo shakes his head, discarding the thought of a distant journey.

It’s no exaggeration to say that he is now among the pinnacle of Xiehe’s elite. Yet, faced with the vastness of the universe, he remains so insignificant, and his pride from the brief but futile journey shatters instantly.

This state of disillusionment is actually more conducive to contemplation.

Tang Luo, having dispersed his fleeing light, allows his body to float freely in the void, relinquishing control.

From extreme speed to a tortoise’s pace, the change isn’t just in movement, but more so in mindset.

No longer chasing after a goal, Tang Luo can now calmly observe everything around him, including that wondrous continent.

Although he had already seen the entirety of the Xiehe land in the Shadow Stone brought back by Saint Han, seeing it firsthand is still breathtaking.

The vast Central Earth world is like an unchanging expanse in the void, with the sun and the moon revolving non-stop around the continent, diving into the netherworld and rising into the sublime.

This continent, different from any he has seen in the void, fits the description of "heaven round, earth square" very aptly.

But at the moment, Tang Luo would rather wish that this Xiehe continent was a regular planet, which at least could be studied and not just admired.

Thinking of this, Tang Luo can’t help but miss his home planet, the azure world that has nurtured billions of lifeforms. If only he could observe and study it...

But wishing is in vain; he still has to rely on himself!

Shaking his head to cast aside these impractical reminiscences, the Void Grandmaster begins to immerse himself wholeheartedly in imagination.

I am, a sphere.

I am a, sphere.

I am a... sphere?

Suspending Pot Peak

"Don’t forcefully channel your Spiritual Power; many of your meridians have been shaken by the force and are injured. Start by regulating your Qi."

Feeling the consciousness returning to Yiqi Tianlong on the sickbed, Lei Gongteng reminds him with a word of caution.

Hearing the familiar voice, Yiqi Tianlong lets go of the wariness in his heart, and while channeling the Wood Spirit Qi, he speaks in a bizarre tone: "I should really thank the Divine Sect for capturing me; otherwise, Tianlong might have been taken away by now."

"When will you ever change that unruly temper of yours?"

Lei Gongteng frowned and said, "Hatred towards evil is a good thing, but you still need to consider the bigger picture. Do you know how many in-laws of the Divine Sect have presented petitions since you descended the mountain to face tribulations, causing uproar among the seventy-two peaks of the Divine Sect!"

"If someone refuses to admit they’re sick, they might as well die from the illness."

Yiqi Tianlong, who was closing his eyes to meditate, snorted and then asked, "Did you fight with Tang Luo?"

"Mhm."

"What did it feel like?"

"The Void Spiritual Body is stronger than what was predicted on the peak."

Recalling the brief confrontation where he had the upper hand, Lei Gongteng sighed, "This is a spiritual body that’s even more suitable for cultivating poison gu than the Wood Spirit Forging Body!"

"You mean to say, even my Bitter Resentment Spirit Orb didn’t hurt him?"

Suddenly opening his eyes, Yiqi Tianlong said indignantly, "Heaven truly is blind."

"Let’s not talk about this."

Lei Gongteng waved his hand and said, "The Divine Sect’s verdict on you has been decided."

With a sarcastic smile towards his mentor, whose face looked as if he had eaten something disgusting and was at a loss for words, Yiqi Tianlong scoffed, "It’s nothing more than being stripped of the Dao Child title and then being put under a few years of confinement, which is fine by me. Whoever wants this shitty Dao Child title can have it. Once I’ve perfected my research on the love poison, I’ll definitely have another fight with Tang Luo."

Lei Gongteng was naturally very satisfied with his disciple’s resilience despite such a significant defeat; however, thinking of the sect leader’s ruling, he felt pity.

After contemplating, Lei Gongteng decided to be the one to announce the news because he feared that if an elder from Suspending Pot Peak were to deliver it, this young man might behave rashly.

"Twenty years should be enough for you to perfect the love poison."

With just that one somber sentence from Lei Gongteng, Yiqi Tianlong sprang up from his sickbed like a live fish.

"Twenty years? Is the Sect Leader senile, trying to confine me to death at Suspending Pot Peak?"

"It’s for your protection!"

Well aware of Yiqi Tianlong’s temperament, Lei Gongteng rebuked, "Behind Tang Luo’s actions, it’s very likely that Xu Lang is supporting him. With the current turmoil in Xiehe, the Han Family might return at any time, and the Three Realms Holy Land has its own troubles. If we become enemies with the Xu Clan at this time, it will only bring suffering to the people of Xiehe."

"Aren’t you the self-proclaimed savior and healer? To prevent the worst-case scenario from happening, you’d better stay put at Suspending Pot Peak!"

Southern Tianan Continent

The news of Wang Chan’s recovery still caused a tremendous stir within the Wang Family.

For many disciples of the Wang Clan, this once glorious and peerless Dao Child of the Wang Family had become their family’s disgrace.

Endowed with unparalleled legacy and in possession of two Divine Artifacts, protected by the number one Divine Armor of the Southern Tianan Continent, he was still severely injured and left for dead.

If it had been a situation of being outnumbered, it might have been forgivable, but the one who struck was merely an inconspicuous demon devotee, Gou Chen, which the whole Wang Family could not accept.

Previously, out of consideration for the critically ill state of Wang Fuling and Wang Chan, this issue was not raised. But now that Wang Chan has recovered and returned, the matter of his stepping down from the Dao Child position was immediately put on the agenda.

The most outstanding disciples of the current generation of the Wang Family gathered in Zongheng Valley, each demonstrating their abilities to compete for the title of Dao Child.

As the Dao Child of the previous generation, Wang Chan naturally accompanied the high-ranking members of the Wang Clan to the event.

After several rounds of competition, Wang Tu, who specialized in physical techniques, defeated Wang Po and became the most outstanding member of the 20th generation of the Wang Clan.

Among the applause, the newly emerged Saint Child of the Wang Family pointed at Wang Chan on the high platform, challenging him to a match.
