Chapter 183 - Deity Of Slaughter's Palace Part One

Name:Ah Chun Author:invayne
Ah Chun who still had blood dripping off her body walked over to Ning Shen with a frown on her face. She felt sticky all over from all the blood on her body. She really wished she could take a bath at this time. Seeing the frown made Ning Shen chuckle. "Chun'er you never change. You hate being covered in blood yet during battle you bathe in it. You are more than capable of not getting even the slightest bit of dirt on you while fighting but you intentionally get soaked in blood." 

Ah Chun snorted: "It's my damn bloodline! For some unknown reason, I unconsciously move  so that the blood will all spatter all over me!" She really did not know why this always happened. She hated the sticky feeling she got when she was all done fighting. The only thing she wanted after a battle was a bath!

Ning Shen smiled and took out a basin of water and a screen. "I figured something like this would happen so I stored a bath just for you."

Ah Chun's eyes sparkled as she said: "Un! It is Shen who knows me best!" After saying her words Ah Chun quickly ran behind the screen stripped her clothes and jumped into the bath!

After cleaning up and putting on a fresh change of clothes Ah Chun felt like new. "Shen when we enter the palace be very careful. I have a feeling that the Deity of Slaughter does not want ordinary cultivators to pass his trials. He was also someone who was marked by the heavens for having a cultivation path that went against the heavens. But he still survived all the way until he was poisoned by another."

"Un! I will be careful. If It seems like I can't move on I will just stop there and wait for you." Ning Shen was not stupid. He knew there was a reason this suppression array was put in place.

"No! You will stay with me no matter what! We came here together we will leave here together." Ah Chun was very adamant about this. If for some reason the other cultivators turned around, Ning Shen would be the first one they targeted. With his cultivation suppressed there would be no way for him to fight them all off or escape!

"I will do as Chun'er says then." Ning Shen could not help but be happy. Even though he was not as strong as he was in his past life where he could stand side by side with her. His Chun'er did not see him as a burden now that he was weaker than her.

After getting the answer she wanted to hear. Ah Chun then turned and faced the large set of doors of the palace. Ah Chun walked forward and placed her hand on the door and pushed. And she pushed. And she pushed. "What the hell this door won't open!" Ah Chun frowned. No matter how much she pushed on the door it just would not open! 

Ning Shen standing off to the side was currently causing himself internal injuries from holding his laughter back. Staring at the little lizard girl with her cheeks all puffed out in anger made him think she was really cute. Ning Shen Slowly walked up to the other large door next to the one Ah Chun was currently pushing on with all her might, He grabbed hold of the large hook handle that was almost twice the size of his body and pulled.

*Creak*

It opened…

Ah Chun's face turned bright red as she saw the door open. She quickly grabbed the handle on her side and pulled on it and just like the other side it opened without a problem. It was now that Ah Chun wanted to go hide under a rock. She looked over at Ning Shen who was now standing there with his hand on his stomach and knew right away that he was holding back his laughter! "Just laugh! Why hold it in! Even I want to laugh at myself!" Crossing her arms across her chest Ah Chun humphed and walked into the palace. Ning Shen couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing while he watched Ah Chun walk away. 

Ah Chun walked into the palace to see a large hall with rows of pillars adorned with carved images of humans fighting against demons.  Ah Chun was in no hurry so she carefully inspected each pillar as she walked by. She noticed that each pillar told it's own story. Each battle was different. Out of all these pillars, there was only one pillar that had no battle carved into it. There was just one sentence "The path of cultivation only truly begins when one surpasses the Heavens!" Ah Chun felt like lightning had struck her as she read these words. She couldn't help but stare at them as she read them over and over again. These words had a lot of power behind them! 

Ning Shen had finally caught up with Ah Chun after he made sure to close the doors. He stood by her side and read the words on the pillar and even he felt like he was struck by lightning. He felt that this one sentence was truly profound! The two stood there in silence for a long while they had no idea how much time had passed.

The first to break the silence was Ah Chun. "Shen… In this world that we live in. There is another path of cultivation that surpasses the heavens. The cultivation bases that we have are just a small portion of what we are actually able to achieve. My Qi Space that formed when I tried to create my Qi World is where my path deviates from the heaven's path. But until I have surpassed the heaven's path of cultivation my two cultivation paths must intertwine. If there is ever a chance for you to deviate your cultivation on to a path that is different from the heaven's path. Then you should take that chance and do so. Because these words hold a meaning that most would not understand. Because they are held back by the heaven's path of cultivation."

"Un… I had the same thought. If I ever get a chance I will take it no matter what." Ning Shen's eyes glowed with determination. He now knew his Chun'er would definitely surpass the heavens one day and when she did, he would be forever left behind. He would not have that! Even if he reached the highest realm a heaven path cultivator could reach he would find a way to surpass it no matter what! He would stand side by side with the girl he loves!
