Chapter 724 -245: Deceit Buddha Protects the Home, Family Harmony and Prosperity Abound!_2
The entire Boundary of Fei Province was covered with a thick layer of Evil Wood.
The only effect of “Evil Wood” was that it could resist cold when burned; he had already ordered his subordinates to build a wooden wall at the edge where Fei Province intersected with the Boundless Icefield and set it on fire, so as to ensure that the cold air was kept back to the Boundless Icefield as much as possible.
If this cold air was not blocked in any way, it would cross Fei Province and continue northward, and since there were no high mountains to the south of Da Xia Country, the entire population would have to retreat to the north, surrendering this rich land to the invaders.
“I say, Lao Fei,”
the Flying Fish City Lord, standing to one side, looked toward the depths of the Boundless Icefield with a somewhat unsightly expression, “This drop in temperature can’t just happen for no reason. We seem to have forgotten something: even the State Preceptor only detected the presence of a Sword Cultivation Puppet deep in the Boundless Icefield, but didn’t find out exactly what lies at the end of it.”
“Now with the Boundless Icefield looking the way it does, how to put it… does it not seem as if some terrifying monster is about to break free from its seal deep in the Boundless Icefield?”
He was originally in charge of Hai Province, once a trusted subordinate to the State Preceptor and personally granted the plaque of “Strongest City Lord.” But with the Boundless Icefield in peril, he was temporarily dispatched here to guard it.
“Not sure.”
After shaking his head, the Fat City Lord fell silent, and only after a long while did he speak in a hoarse voice, “When we used to follow the State Preceptor, every time he encountered a problem, he would fall silent, and then after the silence, he would think of a solution.”
“For a long time, I believed that silence in the face of problems could lead to a rapid solution, but now it seems that I can’t think of anything except anxiety.”
“When soldiers come, block them, when water comes, dam it, when monsters come, we fight until death,”
“No solution, just wait.”
They were already struggling with this cold air, not to mention what might follow the cold air—an unknown existence. To put it bluntly, the situation in Da Xia Country was ominous. Only the people, who were quite optimistic, thought it was just a severe drop in temperature. But those who knew the truth, understood that this could likely be the cataclysm of Da Xia Country!
Just then—
An Imperial Decree of Heavenly Dao rang out throughout Da Xia Country!
–
“Heavenly Dao Decree”: In resonance with Heavenly Dao, in Jing Province of Da Xia Country, the head of Xia Family, Xia Xundao, has reached the Nascent Soul Dao with unparalleled determination, becoming the first Heavenly Pride of Da Xia Country to break through to Nascent Soul!
Such a feat shall be recorded as paramount in the annals of history!
He is bestowed with “one strand of Heavenly Pride Fortune” and “one strand of Heavenly Dao Destiny,” as a standard for all the common folk to follow.
–
As soon as the Imperial Decree resounded, both the Flying Fish City Lord and Fat City Lord were incredulous, remaining stunned in place. After what seemed like an eternity, the Flying Fish City Lord murmured in a daze.
“Lao Fei…” fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Did I hear wrong? Xia Xundao? Isn’t that His Majesty the Emperor?”
“His Majesty broke through to Nascent Soul?”
“How is that possible? Doesn’t Da Xia have a Nascent Soul barrier that can never be broken through unless one faces and defeats a Nascent Soul cultivation Sword Cultivation Puppet in either the east, south, west, or north with one’s Golden Core Peak cultivation? Only then can one go to Xuantian Continent to attempt the Nascent Soul breakthrough?”
As he spoke, he subconsciously circulated his mental method, and the next moment, he suddenly stiffened in place, his lips trembling slightly.
“Lao Fei, give it a try. Why do I feel like the Nascent Soul barrier has vanished?”
He had long been at the Golden Core Peak cultivation, but had always been unable to break through to Nascent Soul. Every time he tried to break through, an insurmountable barrier blocked his path. For years, countless prodigies in Da Xia Country had despaired at this barrier, stuck at the Golden Core Peak, awaiting their death.
It had always been so,
but after the Heavenly Dao Decree rang out, he tried, only to find that the barrier had suddenly disappeared, meaning that as long as he was prepared, he could break through to Nascent Soul anytime!
“Hmm.”
The Fat City Lord, also with a shaken expression, nodded his head and then spoke with a complex face, “I finally understand. The day the State Preceptor had already agreed to take me out of Xia Country but left me behind at the last moment. Looking at it now, it seems that the State Preceptor must have done something outside to lift our barriers.”
“This way, as long as we persist in cultivation, we indeed may, through our own abilities, one day go to the Xuantian Continent and fight alongside the State Preceptor!”
The two exchanged glances, each seeing a fierce flame suddenly igniting in the other’s eyes!
…
In Da Xia Country, “Yun City,” not far from where Chen Qiu started in Fufeng City, there was an originally unremarkable small family, “Wang Family,” which later on had some chances and directly became the largest family in “Yun City!”
With the current strength of the Wang Family, they were fully qualified to settle in the great city of Fufeng City and become one of its strongest families, yet the Wang Family patriarch still chose to stay in Yun City, as he put it, out of a sense of nostalgia.
Meanwhile—
In the courtyard of Yuncheng Wang Family, the patriarch was kneeling in the ancestral hall of his family’s mansion, holding three sticks of incense, looking up expressionlessly at the incense burner on the altar.
He was an orphan who had started from scratch, imitating the practices of wealthy families by setting up this ancestral hall. But there was nobody listed in the family genealogy; he was the first one.
Currently, the altar was empty, not a single tablet in sight, perhaps just a Deceit Buddha.
If he died, then there would be one.
