Chapter 1966
Chapter 1966
The battle in the Purple Smoke City was over. This city, which had survived the war with the foreign races, had been almost completely destroyed in this battle. It was a complete mess.
The Heaven-Defying cultivators who had come to attend the banquet had either died or left, leaving behind the remaining aliens to rebuild the city.
Zi Chen, the enemy in the hearts of all the aliens, had left without a trace. Not a single alien or Heaven-Defying cultivator dared to stop him. In fact, they were all hoping that this fiend would leave.
Yi Qian, the goddess in the hearts of all the Heaven Realm experts, had also left alone. No one knew where she had gone.
However, when the foreign tribes heard about the Saint Weapon fragment and Yi Qian, they would spread the news as fast as they could.
Other than Goddess Yi Qian, the hottest topic right now was, of course, Zi Chen's domineering return, his domineering killing of a group of Heaven-Defying Cultivators, his domineering defeat of Kun Te, and his possession of the Saint artifact fragment.
Kun Te, who had mastered more than 05 laws, was quite famous in the endless starry sky. This time, he had been defeated by Zi Chen and had luckily escaped with his life. Once the news spread, the Heaven-Defying cultivators would understand the situation.
The Heaven-Defying Alliance, which had originally been formed to kill Zi Chen, had also weighed their own strength before deciding whether to form an alliance to kill Zi Chen.
Some of the Heaven-Defying Alliance had disbanded, while others had remained in a wait-and-see state, intending to find out about Zi Chen's latest movements.
However, after learning that Zi Chen had not deliberately hidden his tracks after the battle and had instead swaggered towards the Fifth Mainland, their hesitation had been completely dispelled, and they had all disbanded the Heaven-Defying Alliance.
Clearly, Zi Chen's battle prowess had reached a new height. He was no longer someone who could be dealt with by numbers. The true experts among the Heaven-Defying cultivators were Zi Chen's true enemies.
Just like how Heaven-Defying cultivators were not to be trifled with by ordinary Heaven Realm experts, the current Zi Chen was not someone who could be trifled with with less than 05 laws.
…
…
The setting sun fell on a plain, leaving behind long shadows of a man, a woman, and a beast.
Looking at the fiery red clouds in the sky, Zi Chen grumpily said, "Why are you following me?"
Beside Zi Chen, there was a woman in green. She was extremely beautiful, tall, and curvaceous. On her delicate and flawless face, her beautiful eyes were slightly closed. Her eyelashes gently trembled as she raised her head slightly to enjoy the sunset.
A faint fragrance lingered around the woman. She opened her arms and leaned forward slightly, as if she was embracing the setting sun.
She was natural, beautiful, and moving. One look at her would make one's heart pound.
This was a scene that all Heaven-Defying Alien Race cultivators dreamed of seeing, but Zi Chen didn't appreciate it. Instead, he wore a look of disdain.
"Hey, don't play dumb, okay? Why are you always following me? Do you believe that I will turn hostile and attack you right now?" Zi Chen crossed his arms behind his head and spat out the dried grass in his mouth. He glanced at Yi Qian.
Her long eyelashes trembled and her beautiful eyes opened. Yi Qian, who had opened her arms, tapped her feet lightly and floated forward like a fairy, leaving Zi Chen with her fragrance.
"You are my target now. Of course I have to follow you. Sorry, I am not mature yet. You are not mature either. If you attack me now, you will not be able to maximize my value."
After a long while, Yi Qian's frivolous voice sounded from the front.
The former's maturity had not reached the standard, while the latter's maturity had not reached the true limit. As for the so-called value, it was naturally referring to Yi Qian's body. If Zi Chen obtained it now, he would not be able to break through the Holy Road.
Hearing those straightforward words and looking at the beautiful figure in front of him, Zi Chen narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "I have no interest in you, nor do I mind destroying you. Thanks to you, many strong cultivators will come looking for me. When I face them head-on, I will not leave my back to another enemy. If you don't leave, I will kill you."
"Your threats are meaningless to me. You know very well that I have no intention of killing you. Actually, not all Heaven-Defying Cultivators want to kill you. Among them, there are still many who remain neutral."
Yi Qian, who was at the front, turned around and glanced at Zi Chen. A smile appeared on her exquisite face. "As my newest target, not only will I not attack you, I will even give you some information."
Zi Chen wasn't interested in this so-called information. He was very disgusted by the word "target" that Yi Qian had mentioned. He always believed that this sort of thing required two parties to be in love with each other, and it wasn't something that could be traded.
Shaking his head, Zi Chen said seriously, "Sorry, I am not interested in you. You are not weak. I feel that there is no need for you to give up."
"Hehe."
Yi Qian's giggling voice came from the front, "Little Brother, you are still too young. This is not called giving up on yourself, this is called a rare commodity worth hoarding. This is Big Sister's advantage. You are not interested in Big Sister now because you are not mature and do not know Big Sister's advantages. Wait until you are mature, then you will know how beautiful Big Sister is."
"Big sister."
This form of address made Zi Chen frown slightly. It seemed that the two were not that familiar yet. Furthermore, Yi Qian's point of view made him very unhappy.
"I have secretly investigated your deeds. Your growth speed is very fast. Although you are already in the Heaven Realm, you are still young. Your vitality is still very strong, second only to big sister."
Thinking about how he was already a few thousand years old and was still called young, Zi Chen felt a bit ashamed.
Just like this, the black tiger followed beside Zi Chen. It silently listened to the conversation between the two without saying a word.
"What a beautiful sunset. Little brother, let's go. Accompany big sister to see the sunset."
With a burst of fragrance, Yi Qian appeared beside Zi Chen like a little fairy. She grabbed Zi Chen and pulled him forward.
Feeling the warmth and softness in his hand, as well as the slight trembling from her jade hand, Zi Chen subconsciously wanted to break free.
"Little brother, obediently follow big sister. If big sister is happy, maybe I will give you some clues about the Heaven-Defying Cultivators who are a threat to you. It will let you know the enemy as well as yourself."
Without waiting for Zi Chen to struggle, Yi Qian's voice sounded again.
"What's so good about the sunset?"
Zi Chen muttered. He was no stranger to the matters between men and women. Through the slight trembling of her jade hand, he could clearly feel that Yi Qian was unnatural. However, he did not understand why Yi Qian would act like this in front of him.
Yi Qian turned her head to look at Zi Chen. Using the afterglow of the setting sun, Yi Qian's hair fluttered in the wind. She looked like a fairy who wanted to fly away with the wind. Seeing this scene, Zi Chen was slightly absent-minded.
Yi Qian did not seem to notice Zi Chen's absent-mindedness. She rolled her eyes at Zi Chen and said, "Do you think just anyone can see the sunset? In this endless sky, this is the most complete world. Only in this world can you see the complete sunset."
"Don't other worlds have sunsets?" Zi Chen had already accepted his fate. He allowed Yi Qian to pull him towards the horizon.
"Those worlds don't even have complete laws, so how can there be sunsets? But that's not absolute. Some worlds have sunsets. I've seen one on Planet Dawn once, but it's not as beautiful as this world's."
Hearing Yi Qian's casual tone, it was as if she was completely immersed in the endless sunset. Zi Chen's heart jumped. He took the opportunity to ask the question in his heart. "If the laws are not complete, then why are there so many Heaven-Defying Cultivators?"
In the past, when Zi Chen learned about the Heaven-Defying Cultivators, he guessed that the prerequisite for the Heaven-Defying Cultivators to appear was that they had to create a perfect world. This world had to grow on its own and operate its own laws. In the end, it would become a real big world. This was the Heaven-Defying Cultivator.
Take Zi Chen's current perfect world as an example. In the beginning, he had comprehended many laws, but there were still many laws that he had not comprehended. However, as the perfect world appeared and grew, the laws that Zi Chen had not comprehended gradually appeared in the perfect world and were gradually perceived by Zi Chen.
However, after seeing the foreign Heaven-Defying Cultivators, he sensed that the foreign Heaven-Defying Cultivators had only comprehended a few inconspicuous laws. They had actually fused into Heaven-Defying energy and become a Heaven-Defying Cultivator. This completely overturned Zi Chen's understanding.
Yi Qian, who was originally absent-minded, turned to look at Zi Chen after hearing this question. The two of them looked at each other. When Zi Chen's expression became awkward, Yi Qian laughed softly.
"If you want to inquire about secrets, you can just ask Elder Sister directly. Why do you have to beat around the bush?"
Hearing Yi Qian's words, Zi Chen was slightly embarrassed. After concealing his embarrassment, Zi Chen looked at Yi Qian and asked, "You know?"
Yi Qian nodded and said, "Although I don't dare to say that I know everything, I know some. It is said that in the endless starry sky, in addition to this world, other Heaven-Defying Cultivators will inevitably appear."
"They will definitely appear."
"Yes, as long as a Heaven-Defying Cultivator dies, after that world senses it, a second Heaven-Defying Cultivator will quickly appear. For example, you have already killed nearly a hundred Heaven-Defying Cultivators. It seems that the foreign race has suffered a great loss, but in fact, it won't be long before a new Heaven-Defying Cultivator will appear from that world and return here. As for why, I don't know. Perhaps this is the uniqueness and wonder of this world."
Yi Qian pointed around and said, "But this world is different. Although only one Heaven-Defying Cultivator will appear in this world, it is not deliberate. It is more random. Once a Heaven-Defying Cultivator dies, perhaps there won't be a new Heaven-Defying Cultivator for hundreds of thousands of years. Rumor has it that the Heaven-Defying Cultivator of this world is the strongest and most likely to defy the heavens."
Looking up at the sky, Yi Qian's eyes were filled with confusion. "Defying the heavens, defying the heavens, but does this world really have a 'Heaven'?"
"You don't even know if there is a 'Heaven' in this world, then how did you sense my existence? And the starry sky you are in seems to be an ally. Who is commanding you?"
Zi Chen felt that he had grasped the crux of the problem and asked.
"Whether there is a 'Heaven' or not, I don't know. As for your appearance, we didn't know. There are some alliances in the starry sky we are in, and there are many powers in those alliances. The news of your appearance came from that alliance, and all the powers in that alliance have begun to invade this world."
Looking up at the sky, Yi Qian continued, "But the world I am in is neutral. It doesn't matter if I kill you or not. I came to this world because I felt that the world is so big, and I wanted to see it."
Zi Chen allowed Yi Qian to pull him to a stop on a huge mountain peak. He looked at the gradually disappearing sun at the end of his line of sight.
Yi Qian looked at the setting sun and opened her arms. She was cheering loudly and jumping up and down. The gradually fading afterglow sprinkled on her body, forming a beautiful picture.
