Chapter 336: Chapter 324 Bad News (1/3)
Lingwu Pavilion’s classes lasted for two or three days at a time, sometimes even longer. It was not until four days later that Zhou Heng met with Ying Mengfan and Gu Zi. When the women saw Huo Tian, they were all instantly subdued by her queenly demeanor and willingly acknowledged her as their leader.
Zhou Heng couldn’t help but feel awkward. This woman hadn’t even entered his harem yet, and she had already taken over the position of its master. Was this not putting the cart before the horse?
On the fifth day, the Martial Pavilion finally established contact with him, sending an elder at the Nascent Soul Realm named Yuan Shixiang.
The heart must be guarded, especially since a Nascent Soul Realm elder had completely formed his Divine Sense and was infinitely more powerful than Zhao Duotian and Sang Qingshan!
Zhou Heng had previously witnessed the power of a Nascent Soul Realm elder in the Death Forest, terribly formidable; the difference between it and the Spirit Sea Realm was as vast as between heaven and earth! If he had attained Divinity, he might have had a chance in battle, but now it was out of the question!
Thus, he asked Huo Tian to stand ready at the inner room’s entrance, ready to burst out at any moment.
It remained to be seen whether the aura of the Peerless Heavenly Maiden would have any effect on someone of the Nascent Soul Realm!
"Who would have thought that there are still descendants of the Great Eternal Emperor?" Yuan Shixiang sat down and, instead of asking Zhou Heng about the legacy of the Three Yang Heavenly Venerate, he began to express his emotions.
Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Rise and fall, after a long period of time, my Zhou Family is just the Zhou Family!"
"Haha!" Yuan Shixiang laughed loudly, but there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes, and it took him a while to speak, "The Great Eternal Emperor is the pride of our human race. In the past, he suppressed countless tribes single-handedly and established our dominant position as the overlords of the human race, accruing immeasurable merit and benefits for generations to come! Unfortunately, unfortunately..."
He sighed, then continued, "Do not leave the Martial Pavilion for the time being! Here, we will ensure your safety!" He suddenly brightened up, his eyes shining with a fierce battle intent, "I want to see who dares to come to the Shangtian Martial Pavilion to demand a person!"
This statement was made with a heroic and forthright manner, possessing an awe-inspiring domineering spirit that instantly transformed him from an ordinary old man into an unsheathed sharp sword, exuding a chilling killing intent.
Zhou Heng felt the genuine care in the other’s words and bowed earnestly, saying, "Thank you, senior, for your generous affection!"
Yuan Shixiang waved his hand and said, "Of all the people I admire in my life, the Great Eternal Emperor is the most revered. Now that I know the Emperor has descendants, I will defend your safety even if it means sacrificing this old body of mine!"
"You focus on your cultivation; don’t worry about anything else!"
He did not stay long, asking a few questions about whether Zhou Heng had any doubts in his cultivation before quietly leaving, but the old man was also filled with a profound shock as he departed.
Originally intending to admonish Zhou Heng’s cultivation, through their conversation, he found that Zhou Heng’s understanding of the Martial Path was no less than his own, even inspiring profound reflections as if awakening the sound of evening drums and morning bells, causing him some enlightenment!
Leaving with astonishment, Yuan Shixiang came to hold Zhou Heng in even higher esteem, initially because of his lineage as a descendant of the Great Eternal Emperor, but now out of genuine admiration for his talent!
Such a prodigy might even become the second Great Eternal Emperor!
Sweeping through all lands and suppressing myriad tribes, pushing humanity back onto the throne of supreme honor among all tribes!
It was necessary to have a detailed talk with Saint Yangtian!
"Indeed, he is a fine old gentleman!" Zhou Heng exclaimed with a smile.
"My lord, it’s time to practice!" Ying Mengfan and the other women were throwing him seductive looks, all conveying an understanding expression.
What they naturally practiced was the Heavenly Yang and Earthly Yin Technique!
For the women, practicing this technique with Zhou Heng was far more beneficial than any Divine Pill. With the speed at which Zhou Heng absorbed Spiritual Power, although it was not possible to achieve a three hundred sixty times increase like in the usual Spirit Sea Realm, a three to four times or even six to seven times increase was easily within reach. Moreover, given the huge gap in Cultivation Level between them and Zhou Heng, joining him even once was equivalent to their diligent cultivation for an entire year!
Zhou Heng was still in the room, constructing an array with Upper Grade Spirit Stones to enhance the concentration of Spiritual Energy, greatly aiding the women’s accumulation of Cultivation Levels!
Although the greatest difficulty in the Martial Path is the understanding of realms, each minor realm of the Open Heaven only requires ten years of Spiritual Power accumulation, and the time spent on comprehension is more than a hundred years. However, Zhou Heng still possessed the Nine Suns Vitality Grass, Divine Medicine that offered insight into realms!
Although the women couldn’t match the abnormal speed of Zhou Heng’s cultivation, they too made rapid progress that could astonish anyone by calling them geniuses!
Moreover, this technique was practiced during the joy of love between men and women, which not only increased their Cultivation Levels but also brought them the pleasure of enjoyment. How could the women not love it?
Zhou Heng, however, was the one who suffered. Although the Golden Sun Grass King was powerful, the number of women was also increasing, and after each tending session, he was completely drained, for this was truly a physically demanding task.
The results were also very clear. An Yumei, Nangong Yuerong, and even Orchid Concubine and Xiao Huoshui were all ready to break through to the Second Layer Heaven of Open Heaven!
A day later, Zhou Heng sat in the courtyard leisurely watching the wind blow the leaves, perceiving the finest details of human forms, laying the foundation for the formation of Divinity.
"Zhou Heng!" Gu Zi came over and sat next to him on the stone.
"Hmm?" Zhou Heng turned his head and glanced at her, picked up the fragrant tea placed beside him, and took a sip, "What’s up?"
"I also want to practice the Heavenly Yang and Earthly Yin Technique with you!" the busty woman said calmly.
"Pfft!"
Tea suddenly sprayed out of Zhou Heng’s mouth, followed by a bout of coughing.
"Did I say something wrong?" Gu Zi looked at Zhou Heng with a puzzled expression, pulling out a handkerchief to wipe for him.
Zhou Heng coughed a few more times and said, "Do you know what it takes to cultivate the Heavenly Yang and Earthly Yin Technique?"
"I know, Yumei told me!" Gu Zi looked seriously at Zhou Heng, "Before, I was the fastest in cultivation. Yaoxiang and Yumei couldn’t compete with me, but now Yumei is even aiming for the Second Layer Heaven of Open Heaven, yet I’m still in the Medium Period of First Layer Heaven!"
"Just for that?" Zhou Heng sighed, feeling like he truly was nothing more than a crucible.
"Mostly because of that, and... I often hear Yumei say that doing that feels very comfortable!" Gu Zi said earnestly.
If it were Xiao Huoshui, the latter statement would have surely been flirtatious and intimate, but Gu Zi spoke as if discussing a scholarly subject, filled with seriousness and sincerity.
Zhou Heng glanced at her bust, which was voluptuously ample, and couldn’t help but feel a warmth in his heart; he had never laid a hand on Lin Fuxiang or Gu Zi, letting things take their natural course. Now, it seemed the moment had arrived naturally, and he would go with the flow.
...
Zhou Heng sighed mournfully, another plot of land needing tilling had appeared, and he, the old work ox, had to toil yet more!
"Come on, don’t look so sullen and begrudging, typical of someone who gains an advantage yet still plays coy!" Ying Mengfan rolled her eyes at him. Having consumed half a Crystal Peach and with the aid of Nine Suns Vitality Grass, she was on the threshold of reaching the Spirit Sea Realm and was about to start her seclusion.
Zhou Heng chuckled, hugged her, and gave her a kiss, sending her into the Nine Mystic Trial Tower.
With Zhou Heng, the cultivation crucible, around, the women hardly attended classes at the Lingwu Pavilion, clinging to Zhou Heng and refusing to leave the bed. Though individually they were no match for Zhou Heng, their advantage lay in numbers; they took turns, ensuring they had adequate rest.
Even though Zhou Heng had consumed the Golden Sun Grass King, after a few days, he still had to put up a ’do not disturb’ sign and started roaming around the city, comprehending the societal mood, essential for becoming a deity.
To taste the myriad states of human existence is to ascend to godhood!
"Son-in-law!" As Zhou Heng arrived at an alleyway, a robust and familiar voice called out, a tall middle-aged man was waving at him.
It was Helian Dong, Feng Lianqing’s father.
He seemed pretty idle!
Zhou Heng walked over and asked, "Senior, why are you still here?"
Helian Dong glared and snapped, "What, am I in your way here?"
"Of course not!" Zhou Heng smiled. Like his daughter, the elder was a man of unreason; it was better not to provoke him unless he wanted trouble. He bowed and said, "Senior, do you need something?"
"Son-in-law, you’re in big trouble this time!" Helian Dong sighed, "I originally went to dig up an old enemy’s grave, but with the recent drastic changes in the heavens and frequent natural disasters, that guy actually climbed out of his grave ahead of time..."
Zhou Heng realized then that the so-called old enemy had never died but was sealed within the Temporal Origin Liquid.
"I encountered several contemporaries along the way, and from what they said... you’ve received the inheritance of the Three Yang Heavenly Venerate. Now, many are heading this way, probably putting pressure on the Shangtian Martial Pavilion to hand you over!" Helian Dong’s voice rose again beside Zhou Heng.
"Son-in-law, it’s no longer safe at Shangtian Martial Pavilion, go and call the girl out right away, and I’ll escort you both away!"
Zhou Heng thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Senior, if a storm is coming, it seems escape is inevitable!"
"Son-in-law, don’t think that Saint Yangtian, that old fellow, can protect you!" Helian Dong’s face was frantic, "In the past, many Divine Infant Realm Heavenly Monarchs sealed themselves, and even if only one were left, they could suppress that old Yangtian!"
"Nowadays, the Martial Path has declined, nowhere comparable to the era of the Great Eternal Emperor! Back then, many Divine Infant Realm Heavenly Monarchs had reached the threshold of the Divinity Transformation Realm, but the drastic changes in heaven and earth robbed them of the chance to break through Divinity Transformation Realm!"
"And now, they all have the potential to break through the Divinity Transformation Realm!"
