Chapter 1030: Chapter 1029: Ruins of the Gods Open

Seeing Xiao Guizi hesitating to speak, Xu Zimei smiled and said, “This isn’t like your character.”

“I want to stay in the Yuan Central Continent,” Xiao Guizi took a deep breath and said somewhat nervously as he looked at Xu Zimei.

“Then stay,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

“Aren’t you going to ask me why?” Xiao Guizi said.

“There are many beautiful things in life beyond just following me,” Xu Zimei smiled.

“Like your wife, and your newborn child, it’s normal to feel reluctant.”

The path of martial arts is not something everyone wishes to pursue to the peak.

Some people are content with a stable life, taking it slow is enough for them.

“Yes, my parents died early in my life, and I entered the True Martial Holy Sect when I was young.

I thought roaming the world with my senior brother would be my sole pleasure and lifelong dream.”

Xiao Guizu replied, “But then I got married, and had children.

Becoming a husband and a father for the first time, I started to have more attachments, and gradually, the desire to move forward faded.”

“That’s good,” Xu Zimei nodded with a smile.

“You’re not upset with me?” asked Xiao Guizi.

“What’s there to blame you for?” Xu Zimei said.

“For not being able to continue following you, and for the promises I once made,” Xiao Guizi replied.

“I even told a few ancestors before that I wanted you to stay, as a witness to my era,” Xu Zimei said, shaking his head with a smile.

“You and Ruhu are a few of my friends, and I naturally respect your choices.”

“Speaking of which, how’s your kid doing? If it’s convenient, I’d like to visit.”

“He’s at Purple Cloud Peak, I’ll take you there,” Xiao Guizi quickly said.

“Then what about the masters from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect? They all want to visit you, aren’t you going to see them?”

“They’re not important,” Xu Zimei waved his hand dismissively.

Led by Xiao Guizi, the three of them arrived at Purple Cloud Peak.

Xiao Guizi was once just an ordinary inner sect disciple, but following Xu Zimei, he grew stronger and his status rose significantly.

Now he even lives on his own mountain peak.

This was the treatment many core true disciples received.

Purple Cloud Peak is located to the east of the True Martial Holy Sect, named so because at sunrise, the first ray of purple qi would shine upon it.

The mountain itself is not particularly majestic, a medium-sized peak with a predominantly purple color.

Along the small path of the mountain, after about fifteen minutes, the three reached a courtyard halfway up.

The courtyard was especially quiet, adorned with a bed of flowers on the side, and it was indeed a beautiful view.

Yao Shengnan, holding her newborn child, came out from the inner room.

Newborns love to sleep.

Xu Zimei glanced at the baby, who looked no different from any ordinary child, but resembled Xiao Guizi in the brows and eyes.

Seeing the baby, Xiao Guizi’s eyes were filled with deep paternal love.

Xu Zimei smiled, slowly extending his hand, from which a few orbs of light were swirling around.

“Choose one for your son. Consider it my gift,” Xu Zimei said.

“What is this?” Xiao Guizi asked.

He looked at the orbs of different colors, each vast with seemingly infinite power within.

“The Hundred Great Battle Bodies,” Xu Zimei replied.

After the battle for destiny, although he killed those people, their Hundred Great Battle Bodies were preserved.

Xu Zimei collected them all, but he no longer needed them.

“Then I won’t be polite,” Xiao Guizi chuckled.

He pointed to the Primordial Body and said, “Let it be this. The Primordial possesses the Way, and the Taoist Technique is natural.”

Xu Zimei pointed with his right hand, and instantly, the Primordial Body turned into a streak of flowing light and flew into the baby’s body.

He adopted an extremely gentle method of integration, which did, however, require some time.

“Stay here and accompany the child; there’s no need to see me off,” Xu Zimei said.

“In a few days come to my peak, I’ll help you enhance some strength.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother,” Xiao Guizi gratefully said.

Xu Zimei waved his hand, then departed from Purple Cloud Peak with Lin Ruhu.

Stepping out of Purple Cloud Peak, the sky outside had also gradually darkened.

Xu Zimei looked up into the distance, where the horizon was tinted by the last light of dusk, the sunset like a large disc, slowly vanishing into the void.

Although he was ruthless and merciless towards his enemies,

towards his own brothers, Xu Zimei could be considered utterly righteous.

After parting with Lin Ruhu, Xu Zimei returned to Goose Southern Peak.

Inside the room, he opened the book given to him by Heavenly Curtain War God.

It contained True Martial Great Emperor’s understanding of the Great Emperor Realm.

Since True Martial Great Emperor had ascended right after entering Yin and Yang, the knowledge here pertained to Yin and Yang.

The information on the later realms was scarce.

After comprehending the Profound Meaning, the next step was to condense the Profound Meaning Bridge within the body, also known as the Yin-Yang Bridge.

The Yin-Yang Bridge leads to the rules and is consolidated by Profound Meaning.

Xu Zimei made no movements, merely allowing myriad Profound Meanings to coalesce within him, wandering among various Vein Gates within his body.

Then, they transformed into the source where countless streams converge, all gathering in the abdomen.

This Yin-Yang Bridge may sound simple, but its process is extremely complex and tedious.

The more one practices, the less one feels the passage of time.

During this period, aside from helping Lin Ruhu and Xiao Guizi strengthen their powers, he had been immersed in cultivation.

However, his cultivation was now not as rapid as before.

Two months later, the Divine Emperor came to True Martial Holy Sect.

He came very covertly, without disturbing anyone, and arrived at Goose Southern Peak.

“The Ruins of the Gods will soon open,” the Divine Emperor directly delved into the topic.

“I know. Who else will be participating this time?” Xu Zimei asked.

“The Imperial Rule Immortal Sect from Central Continent will definitely go, but with you and me here, it’s just a matter of a word if we want someone else to participate,” the Divine Emperor said.

“You seem so keen on the Ruins of the Gods, must be expecting some gains?” Xu Zimei asked.

“There’s something inside that I want, but it might also be something you need,” the Divine Emperor said.

“Both of us are now condensing the Yin-Yang Bridge, and we greatly need that thing.”

“Let’s get ready and leave.”

“There’s nothing to pack,” Xu Zimei waved his hand.

…

The two left True Martial Holy Sect, rose into the sky, and headed towards the direction of the Central Continent.

The Ruins of the Gods were located at the border between Shenghua Domain and Sky-reaching Domain.

Their speed was incredibly fast, covering a thousand miles in a single step was no exaggeration.

On their journey, the great rivers and mountains of Yuan Central Continent were fully displayed under their feet, and after several days, they finally arrived at the site where the Ruins of the Gods were opening.

It seemed to be a canyon.

The endless canyon stretched between the two domains, like a meandering and winding Divine Dragon lying on this vast land.

On the top sides of the canyon, several figures were currently situated.

Each one of them was incredibly imposing, with the energy of wind and thunder stirring.
