Mad God Evolution-Chapter 1542 - 1432
Chapter 1542: Chapter 1432
This time, Lv Zhong successfully passed the Sage Tribulation, and the benefits he gained were simply immense.
If he were to reveal them all, not only would he seem arrogant and frivolous, but people would also treat him as a fool or a madman.
Because this time, Lv Zhong’s [Eye of the Great Path], after devouring the Tribulation Eye of the [Nine-colored Sacred Heart Tribulation], was evolving toward the [Hongmeng Divine Eye].
Though the evolution was not yet complete, it was already hundreds of times stronger than before.
Now, Lv Zhong, relying solely on the third divine ability of the [Eye of the Great Path]—Summoning the Heavenly Tribulation—was capable of summoning a super Sage Tribulation that could destroy a Level 2 Middle Stage Sage.
Moreover, as the [Eye of the Great Path] continued to grow stronger, Lv Zhong might even be able to create his own [Nine-colored Sacred Heart Tribulation] in the future.
This Heavenly Sage Tribulation could be effective even against ordinary sages below the sixth rank.
However, Lv Zhong had no idea that when he revealed he possessed a Yuanshen Divine Sense comparable to that of a sixth-rank Sage, every Sage present, except for Master Hongjun, was utterly shocked and astonished.
Among them, the strongest was Supreme Laojun, with a Divine Sense at the seventh rank, middle stage.
The other Sages, Primordial, Tongtian, and Jieyin, were at the seventh rank, lower stage, while Nuwa Sage was at the sixth-rank peak-level, and Zhunti Sage at the sixth-rank upper stage.
In other words, Lv Zhong, solely by devouring the Tribulation Eye of a single [Nine-colored Sacred Heart Tribulation], unexpectedly possessed a Divine Sense nearly equal to the collective sages present.
"This is insane! This world isn’t the same as the one we once knew!" Tongtian shook his head with a bitter smile, giving Lv Zhong a thumbs-up at the same time.
Nuwa Sage’s stunningly beautiful face darkened slightly as she sighed, "I finally understand the depth of one saying from the mortal world."
"What saying?" Zhunti Sage asked in surprise.
Nuwa Sage deliberately straightened her face and said solemnly, "Comparing possessions makes one feel worthless; comparing people makes others despair!"
At once, all the sages burst into hearty laughter!
Through this conversation, Lv Zhong invisibly earned the recognition of the sages present.
He effortlessly integrated himself into their circle.
It must be said that sometimes, only by revealing one’s strength can one gain others’ respect.
After gaining a super-powerful master and acceptance from several legendary Sage seniors and senior sisters, Lv Zhong generously brought out his women for introductions at the Zixiao Palace.
Seeing that every woman beside Lv Zhong was either a Quasi-Sage or at the peak-level of Immortal Emperor, the sages present were awestruck, their hearts filled with turbulent waves of astonishment.
Obviously, with the [Great Annihilation Pearl] in hand and blessed with extraordinary destiny, Lv Zhong had access to boundless opportunities and immense fortune.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to cultivate so many new-generation female Immortal Emperors into existence.
Mu Cangqiong, Ao Ye, and Leng Mei had all successfully cultivated to become Middle Level Immortal Emperors (Quasi-Sages).
Yun Shuiyao and Zheng Linglong had both advanced to Lower Level Immortal Emperors. Even Yan Yan and Xu Xinyan were only one step away from breaking through from peak-level Immortal Emperor to Immortal Emperor status.
This time, Lv Zhong didn’t summon Bai Suzhen, Bai Susu, Teng Qing, or Hu Mei.
For one, Bai Suzhen and Teng Qing (Little Qing) had once been key figures manipulated by Buddha’s Door. Since there were two Buddhist sages present, Lv Zhong didn’t want to stir up unnecessary disputes.
For another, the three serpent women and Hu Mei belonged to the Demon Race and had greatly benefited from Lv Zhong’s resources, which had elevated their cultivation aptitude exponentially. Lv Zhong feared that summoning these four women would immediately draw Nuwa Sage’s attention and contention. After all, Wa Huang was a true Sage of the Demon Race. If she saw exceptionally gifted talents from her race, she might develop other intentions.
...
Lv Zhong’s concerns were indeed justified!
Sure enough, when Mu Cangqiong, Ao Ye, Leng Mei, Zheng Linglong, Yan Yan, Xu Xinyan, and Yun Shuiyao appeared, both Zhunti Sage and Nuwa Sage were visibly moved and openly expressed their intention to take the women as disciples.
If not for Lv Zhong’s firm refusal and Master Hongjun’s presence to maintain order, Zhunti Sage and Nuwa Sage might have resorted to force.
Unable to accept the women as disciples, the sages even hatched other plans—they wanted to forcibly assign a few of their own disciples to Lv Zhong’s side.
Lv Zhong was well aware of what these sages were scheming.
However, with great secrets surrounding him, Lv Zhong firmly declined. After giving out a considerable amount of [Heavenly Light Holy Water] and rare fruits, he finally dispelled the sages’ thoughts.
Realizing that staying with the sages for even a day would mean being subjected to their calculations for a day, Lv Zhong decisively took his leave.
He led the women to begin traveling through the Pangu World.
Now that Lv Zhong himself was a Sage and in the Pangu Universe, he no longer feared any other Sage targeting him.
Thus, he happily concealed his cultivation and accompanied the women on a journey of leisure.
During this journey, nothing posed a threat to their safety, and everyone enjoyed themselves immensely.
At times, Lv Zhong led them on walks atop rainbow bridges.
Other times, they played freely in the Milky Way.
They even secretly infiltrated the Eastern Heavenly Court, feasting and reveling in the Queen Mother’s Peach Garden.
On other occasions, they sneaked into the cold Guanghan Palace to admire the enchanting dances of Chang’e Fairy.
...
Amid their travels and leisure, everyone completely forgot about cultivation.
To their surprise, the three-year journey significantly stabilized their mindsets and greatly boosted their cultivation in terms of soul and mental strength.
"Haha, it seems that cultivation must indeed be balanced with relaxation!" Feeling the remarkable improvement in the women’s emotional states and spiritual abilities, Lv Zhong laughed in delight.
Mu Cangqiong nodded slightly and said, "These words are true wisdom!"
"So, husband, you must promise to take us out more in the future..." Zheng Linglong suddenly displayed a mischievous smile.
Lv Zhong was speechless, rolling his eyes as he glared at Zheng Linglong in mock annoyance, "Fine, you cheeky girl, you’ve outmaneuvered me this time."
"Husband, actually, all of us want to keep traveling with you. We don’t want to be confined in the [Great Annihilation Pearl] for cultivation. Why not take us with you always..." Yan Yan blinked softly, gazing at Lv Zhong with gentle eyes.
Lv Zhong shook his head slightly, "I’m afraid I can’t always take all of you with me. However, I will spend more time with you in the future. That said, you cannot slack off in your cultivation. This is the Immortal World, where our enemies grow increasingly formidable. Without personal strength, you won’t be able to achieve what you desire, nor safeguard the things you already have!"
"We know that! Yan’er only meant to say it in passing—why do you have to give a whole speech?" Xu Xinyan chided, giving Lv Zhong a sidelong glance.
Lv Zhong laughed and said no more, though his expression turned slightly solemn. Indeed, a subtle unease stirred his heart.
It seemed that something bad was about to happen!
"Strange, what exactly could be affecting me?" Lv Zhong muttered in confusion, furrowing his brows as he expanded his Divine Sense, combining it with the Time Path Dao Patterns to investigate.
"Poison? Highly toxic? Someone used the Toxic Saint pattern to poison me?" Suddenly, Lv Zhong’s expression darkened, his gaze cold and ominous. (To be continued.
