Chapter 722: Chapter 620 The True Self Awakens

"Hehe..."

Peach’s face suddenly reddened with two patches of blush, thickly smeared with white powder base.

In the blink of an eye, she seemed to transform from flesh and blood into the face of a paperman.

’It seems to be an advanced application of shadow puppetry. Peach wasn’t made into a shadow puppet paperman, but her fate wasn’t much better.’

Fang Xing witnessed this scene with neither sadness nor joy.

His relationship with Peach was merely acquaintance, all debts had been settled.

Seeing Peach like this now, it could only be said to be her own choice.

"It is truly hard to imagine, the little slave from Paperman Valley a hundred years ago, has been promoted to a Yang God True Monarch of her realm, even cultivating the Paper Folding Secret Technique to such depths..."

A faint voice emanated from Peach’s face: "This is my failure as an ancestor. Had I discovered your talents earlier, I would have surely made you the Saint Heir of the sect and nurtured you carefully... how about these small gifts?"

She raised her hand, a transparent orb appearing in the palm, filled with countless faces struggling and wailing...

"The souls of disciples and stewards from Paperman Valley’s past, except for those who died in battle, are all here."

"Blood Shadow Patriarch... Let’s not discuss pointless matters."

Fang Xing waved his hand, as if a fearsome dragon’s shadow rose behind him, bringing a tremendous oppression of Dragon Power.

"You are not in the middle Yang God realm, but in the post Yang God realm?!"

The Blood Shadow Sect Patriarch’s voice turned even sharper: "How is this possible?"

"Existence is justified... My stance has been stated many times: I won’t risk my neck for your goals."

Fang Xing smiled slightly: "I don’t want to hear any of your wooing conditions, and if you provoke me, I’ll simply join the Killing Life Sect... With my current strength, can your front line still hold?"

Once strength reaches a certain point, one can overturn the table with threats.

Fang Xing’s words were undeniably lethal.

When Peach regained consciousness, she realized she wasn’t in the Paper House Cave, but had returned to Qingmu Ridge.

"Ancestor she?"

Peach looked at Fang Xing, hesitating.

"A strand of her divine thought has self-destructed... You now have two choices: return to the Blood Shadow Sect to continue fighting, or stay in the Nature Sect."

Fang Xing spoke calmly: "This is the last chance I’m giving you, for the sake of our past acquaintance."

Peach stared at Fang Xing, stunned.

Has this boy, once whipped to near death, finally grown into a major figure in the cultivation world?

Sadly, she was back then...

...

Time flows swiftly like water.

After securing strategic peace and claiming the entirety of Qingmu Ridge, Fang Xing focused all his efforts on planting trees.

A legendary druid at full capacity, the speed of greening was terrifying.

In just a few years, Qingmu Ridge almost showed no trace of human presence, entirely turning into a wilderness.

Even some disciples from the Nature Sect complained about the inconveniences of life. Without protective arrays, the low rank disciples often awoke to see pythons, monkeys, big-horned deer, and other animals roaming about... and ubiquitous insects.

However, these complaints were forcefully suppressed by Fei Yong and Peach.

Indeed, despite much contemplation, Peach decided to stay in the Nature Sect.

Returning to the Blood Shadow Sect, she would be used as cannon fodder nine times out of ten.

The terrifying mortality rate on the frontlines had become a nightmare for all cultivators in the Outer World.

Conversely, the Killing Life Sect seemed to revel in it, becoming stronger with each battle.

Since both enemies and their own deaths brought them divine favor and growth.

On this day.

"Calculating the days, it’s almost time for another enhancement..."

"Wasn’t it said that after becoming legendary, each level up becomes more difficult?"

"Yet, as I plant more trees, it has formed a snowball effect... Exponential explosion, even bridging the massive experience gap?"

Fang Xing’s heart stirred, feeling the influx of natural experience.

His whole body trembled as he gazed at the attribute bar:

[You’ve received a natural baptism, raising your druid level to 21!]

[You’ve acquired a new talent—’God’s Eye Can’t Reach’!]

[God’s Eye Can’t Reach: Your destiny’s trajectory is shrouded in a mist of fate, preventing divine beings from perceiving you, though they can see most of the world.]

"This talent is quite decent..."

Before Fang Xing could rejoice, his expression changed suddenly.

He seemed to transform into Qingmu Ridge, passing through season after season...

Seasons and celestial paths have their patterns.

A faint emerald glow emerged from every Evergreen Wood, the air, the earth, the rivers, gathering towards him.

The verdant radiance grew more dazzling, finally coalescing into a droplet-like emerald crystal, landing on his forehead.

Upon lightly touching his skin, it fused entirely.

"This is..."

Fang Xing sensed the fundamental change in his life essence, checking the attribute bar:

[You’ve acquired one ’Natural Divinity’!]

[Your life essence has enhanced, promoting you to ’Divine Being’, allowing you to accept the power of faith and incense... Your lifespan has greatly increased!]

[Detected ’Immortality’ talent, removing your life span limit!]

"Divinity?"

"Indeed, as long as I keep planting trees, everything falls into place."

Fang Xing’s expression was excited.

He activated the secret technique, allowing this trace of natural divinity to merge into his own Yin God.

Divinity is the most pure, vast, and harmonious force.

In Fang Xing’s Yin God’s post-realm divine soul, the trace of divine skill Golden Core Seed emerged and fused with the verdant natural divinity.

In an instant, his soul was filled with the force of life, without a trace of yin quality remaining.

"A trace of pure yang swallowed into the stomach, my destiny is mine to decide, not the heavens."

"I... have achieved the Yang God."

"Indeed, the effect of this divinity is much better than the ’Pure Yang Pill’, almost naturally bringing a breakthrough."

Fang Xing murmured, looking at the attribute bar:

[Name: Fang Xing]

[Age: 115/∞]

[Profession: Druid Level 21]

[Realm: Yang God Initial Realm]

[Talent: Natural Affinity, Wilderness Transformation, Plant Growth, Toxin Immunity, Youthful Forever, Thorny Technique, Tree Bark Skill, Natural Healing, Tree-man Enlightenment, Tree Shepherd, Sturdy, Battle Casting, Enlightenment Technique, Regeneration, Immortal Body, Natural Summoning, Advanced Natural Healing, Nature’s Wrath, Immortality, God’s Eye Can’t Reach]

[Skills: All-Complete Hand (Grandmaster 800/800), Paper Folding Technique (Grandmaster 800/800), Beast Taming Skill (Grandmaster 800/800), Qi Concealment Technique (Grandmaster 800/800), Enchanting Soul Skill (Grandmaster 800/800)]

...

"Sure enough, my strength has greatly increased again!"

Fang Xing’s expression was exhilarating: "Removing the lifespan limit represents unlimited longevity, this is true immortality..."

"Moreover, divinity enhances all aspects, even my Wilderness Transformation·Flood Dragon form, with a bit of divinity, the strength will surge."

"Finally, did I achieve the Yang God?"

"The cultivation path of the ancient Taoist inheritance of this world has almost been completed by me..."

"Next, is it to silently accumulate faith, divinity... and finally sprint to become a demigod?"

"After the demigod, then seek divinity and become a true god, ascending to the heavenly court?"

At this moment, the cultivation path of this world is clearly before Fang Xing without any confusion.

"No, this should be the powerful aspect of the Druid inheritance, not a transcendence inheritance, how could it easily condense natural divinity?"

"Even if it weren’t for obtaining the talent of God’s Eye Can’t Reach, and happening to be in this Outer World, I might have been discovered by divine beings the moment I acquired divinity, turning into a divine creature, then fortune or misfortune would be unpredictable..."

"Thinking about it, being born in the Outer World was also the planning of my true self?"

Thinking of his true self, Fang Xing suddenly had a strong feeling.

Upon the ascension of his divine soul, especially after gaining a trace of natural divinity, he seemed to finally sense the presence of his true self!

’Over a hundred years have passed... I’ve almost forgotten that I’m just an avatar.’

Fang Xing sighed, as the magnificent Yang God arose, using divinity as a bridge to sense his true self.

...

High above the mortal realm.

Heavenly Court!

Called the Heavenly Court, but actually more like a boundless universe.

Countless Divine Countries resembling stars, or boundless kingdoms, form various different planes, sprawling above the mortal realm.

Inside a Divine Country filled with the power of destruction.

"Asta..."

The ground was dark, gloomy... seeming to retain traces of supplicants.

A raspy voice echoed in the towering palace amidst the ruins.

"The undying pure white sun sinks..."

"Welcomes the call that destroys all..."

"Ah... Asta!"

"Sinking into reality and illusion... Eternal Asta..."

"Asta..."

At the center of the palace, upon the half-collapsed throne.

A short-haired youth who was sleeping suddenly opened his eyes, carrying a hint of obvious bewilderment: "Asta? Who’s calling? Me?"

"Wait... I seem to have slept for a long time, it’s the cultivation avatar that awakened me."

Fang Xing’s true self’s expression changed, reaching out a hand.

A somewhat broken, pitch-black horn appeared in front of him.

"Xifan’s Transcendence Inheritance... already digested halfway, so it’s starting to break?"

"The cultivation avatar did well, as long as the consumption continues, once the progress is over halfway, it will snowball and only get faster."

Using the Golden Finger attribute panel and the Gate of All Heavens, he saw everything about the avatar as clear as day.

After all, he and the avatar share a consciousness, not distinguishing each other.

Almost the moment he awoke from his slumber, he understood everything.

"I... I was originally the God of Destruction and Ruin—Asta?"

"This wretched deity beaten into slumber by the Great Zhou Divine System?"

"No... No!"

"I am still me, it’s just by using the Gate of All Heavens, I replaced the original ’Asta’s destiny, so in the eyes of everyone in this world and even true gods, I am Asta..."

"This Asta didn’t fare well among the divines, but it still hid an avatar of a ’True God’, still clever..."

"But during the previous adventure, it encountered the War God of the Great Zhou Divine System and directly had all its divine incarnations blown up, power greatly diminished..."

"Fortunately, a divine being’s power increases greatly within their Divine Country, Asta wasn’t foolish, the true self never stepped out of the Divine Country, narrowly preserving its life, only due to great power loss, fell into slumber, then I replaced it?"
