Chapter 251 - 251 You Are Sick

251 You Are Sick

Feng Xia had only just heaved a sigh of relief. However, hearing what Long Da said, he immediately felt his scalp go numb and he almost jumped three feet high.

Brother…

You cannot be like this!!

He had spent so much time and effort to lead on and impart his cultivation, but in the end, you actually say that… you think that the Holy Son is a bit handsome?

Then what was the use of having you?!

“Fellow practitioner Long, it seems like you still need treatment.”

Feng Xia took a deep breath. Just as he was about to continue thinking of a countermeasure, he heard Long Da hurriedly reply, “Hey, don’t, don’t, don’t! I am already normal now. This brat’s secret technique is rather weird. It subtly changes your consciousness. Previously, I was unprepared, so I was careless and fell for it. But now, it’s different…”

Feng Xia was suspicious and instinctively waved the Jinghua Sword. “Is there really no problem? Are you sure you don’t need treatment?”

Next, if he still wanted to explore the tomb of the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor, Long Da’s existence was indispensable. He did not want the initiator, Long Da, to betray him in the end…

“Of course not. I’m in a very good state now!”

Long Da gave a displeased snort and said with a sneer, “The souls of the Dragon Clan are innately stronger than the other races. This is an innate talent that you humans can’t even envy. Now that I’m prepared, this dogshit Holy Son can’t even think about plotting against me again!”

“To prevent any accidents, I’ll ask you a few questions.”

Feng Xia pondered for a moment. Without waiting for Long Da to agree, he asked, “If you add one Holy Son to eight Holy Sons, how many Holy Sons do you get?”

Long Da sneered, “Of course it’s nine Holy Sons. Go ahead and test me!”

“Then 11 out of 20 Holy Sons died. How many Holy Sons are left?”

“Nine, of course!”

“Now, there are three Holy Sons. He has learned a cloning technique. Other than his original body, he can also split into two incarnations. How many Holy Sons are there now?”

“Fellow practitioner Feng, are you looking down on me? Of course, it’s still nine!”

“Looks like you’re seriously ill!” Feng Xia rubbed his chin and muttered thoughtfully. “No matter what you’re asked to do, you can get nine as the answer. Fellow practitioner Long, you might still need treatment…”

“Get lost, get lost, get lost, get lost!”

Long Da was instantly enraged. He sneered and said, “Is this how you administer a test?! If you want to test me like this, then I can also test you. A total of 18 Holy Sons ambushed you. You killed nine of them with a single strike. How many Holy Sons are left?”

Feng Xia replied without thinking, “Of course not a single one is left.”

Long Da: “You’re lying through your teeth. There are clearly nine left!”

Feng Xia also sneered. “I killed nine of them in one strike. How can the remaining nine not escape from the scene? In the end, of course not a single one is left!”

Long Ci was furious. “Fellow practitioner Feng, you don’t even know mathematics!”

Feng Xia also sneered, “Fellow practitioner Long, you don’t understand the human heart at all!”

“Bah!”

“Bah!”

After exchanging insults, the two of them quickly fell silent.

After a while, Feng Xia laughed and said, “Looks like you should be fine. If there’s really a problem, I can only hold my nose and accept it.”

Long Da laughed as well. “Sure, sure. However, what do you plan to do next, fellow practitioner Feng? The first level of the Demon Imperial Tombs will be open for a month. During this period of time, you must gather as many Spirit Breaking Talismans, Deity Breaking Talismans and Immortal Breaking Talismans as possible! When you reach the Heavenly Stairway, these jade talismans will have unimaginable divine effects!”

“Stop, stop!”

When Feng Xia heard this, he quickly waved his hand and interrupted him. “These lousy talismans you’re talking about… What are they? What’s the Heavenly Stairway?”

If Long Da had not brought it up at this moment, he had almost forgotten that when he was harvesting the fortuitous opportunities, he had indeed encountered the attacks of some guardian spirit beasts. There were both strong and weak guardian spirit beasts, but none of them were able to communicate with him peacefully. Furthermore, after defeating them, they would transform into spiritual light and dissipate, leaving only a jade talisman in his hand.

In the beginning, Feng Xia was still conflicted about the use of the jade talismans.

However, in the end, he simply took it as proof that he had killed the guardian spirit beasts, just like farming achievements in a game. Although achievements were actually useless most of the time, at least it made people feel a sense of accomplishment.

However, from what Long Da said…

It seemed that these jade talismans were actually very useful?

As soon as he said that, apart from Long Da having his mouth wide open, Feng Xia could feel the reaction of the spider girl next to him. Zhu Youniang was casting him a look that said, “Xia, why don’t you know anything? You really suck.”

No matter what Zhu Youniang wanted to say, Feng Xia felt that this was what she meant.

Long Da was shocked. “Eh? Fellow practitioner Feng, don’t you know? Oh right… when we were having the battle meeting, you seemed to have been taken away by Jiao Qingtu for training…”

Feng Xia: “…So what’s going on?”

“It’s like this…”

Strictly speaking, whether it was the Spirit Breaking Talisman, the Immortal Breaking Talisman, or the Deity Breaking Talisman, they were all proof. Or rather, they were the keys to the Heavenly Stairway.

The Heavenly Stairway was one of the ways to enter the second level.

However, more importantly, the Heavenly Stairway itself was also a major opportunity.

“The Heavenly Stairway is a precious treasure, and it is covered with incomparably intense divine light. It is said that this is a divine object accidentally obtained by the First Emperor of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons in outer space. Even he did not manage to study it thoroughly. Once one steps onto the Heavenly Stairway, one will be subjected to indiscriminate pressure in all aspects. The higher one’s cultivation, the more terrifying the pressure one will be subjected to.”

“So, how can this be considered an opportunity?” Feng Xia was confused.

So what if there was pressure? Who did not have some amount of pressure these days?

Too many people were under immense pressure!

Long Da’s words sounded like what he heard someone say before he transmigrated—Money was the easiest thing to obtain in this world!

Bah!

“Don’t be anxious. Let me finish. The divine light on the Heavenly Stairway has a miraculous effect. It can give you 10 years in one dream. Think about it. If you can deduce cultivation techniques in your dreams and train and cultivate there, how much time and energy can you save?”

Long Da explained earnestly, “And the effect of these jade talismans is to temporarily isolate the pressure of the divine light so that you can deduce peacefully in your dreams without having to constantly resist the pressure of the divine light!”

Feng Xia could not help but feel tempted.

What did he lack the most in his cultivation process up to now?

It was not resources or cultivation techniques, but time!

He had cultivated for too short a period of time. Even if he counted all the time he took, it had not even been a year. Although he could reach this stage not only because of the help of his attribute superpower, but also because of his talent and diligence, everyone knew that no matter how big the base number was, if the coefficient was too small, the final result might still be very small.

If he was given enough time to cultivate in peace, why would he need to behave like he did now, overcautious and even sacrificing the future potential of an incarnation to a certain extent?

Without a doubt, if what Long Da said was true, then the Heavenly Stairway would be his greatest opportunity this time round!

“The effect of one Deity Breaking Talisman is equivalent to 10 Spirit Breaking Talismans. However, Deity Breaking Talismans are not easy to obtain. One has to defeat a guardian spirit beast that is at least two minor levels higher than oneself. I wonder who’s the first asshole who can do this…”

As Long Da muttered, Feng Xia speechlessly sighed.

“The asshole you’re talking about… seems to be me.”
