Chapter 302: Talent Blessed By The Heavens (1/2)
The refining process was hard and unbearable for a child like Xiu'er. In fact, even adults would wail and scream like the progenitor did a while ago.
The process felt like someone was skinning you alive and your organs were ripping apart. The feeling was excruciatingly painful that you might just wish to die. In this stage, the relief of death was better.
However, Xiu'er had no plan on giving up. He was determined to prevail in the end. After all, only him could do this. Besides, he was doing this for the sole purpose of his mother. He wanted to save her, as soon as possible. He wanted to see his mother alive.
”Ahhhh!!!” Xiu'er kept on screaming and screaming. His screams were quite miserable, but you could hear and feel the hardness of his voice.
”That's right. Keep on it.” Jin Rou nodded. He was amazed by this little guy's tenacity. Though he didn't know the exact feeling of the child, he knew that it would be unbearable for such a human who had not yet started cultivating.
Hours passed by. The refining process was finally taking its last step. Xiu'er also stopped screaming, probably because he was already numb to it. Furthermore, one could obviously see the major changes happening in the child's body.
Xiu'er a while ago was very thin, as there was no muscle. But now, his body was toned and well-built. The masculinity appeared a little to fit the child's appearance. One more thing to notice, was that the power he was emitting.
It was a power of someone who took the imperial path.
The improvements were there and obvious.
Soon, the hellish refining process finally ended and Xiu'er sat down in lotus position.
”That's right.” Jin Rou approved of what Xiu'er was doing, ”Since you have just did a multiple breakthroughs, you need to stabilize your qi inside. Or else it will explode and you will die.”
Xiu'er didn't say anything and focused on stabilizing himself.
After three more hours, Xiu'er opened his eyes and looked at Jin Rou. His eyes were telling him everything, ”I did it...”
”Yes, you did it.” Jin Rou smiled, ”You are very brave back then. Quite an admirable courage.”
”…” Xiu'er didn't say anything as he just looked down. It seemed that he was a bit shy because he had doubted Jin Rou many times.
In fact, even during the refining process, he thought that Jin Rou might just playing some tricks to him. He was ashamed that he thought this way.
The child thought that his mindset was already matured. However, it seemed like it was just a thought in a bubble.
”Congratulations on becoming a Fate Emperor.” Seeing the ashamed child, Jin Rou decided to open another conversation, ”You are very talented. A talent that couldn't be seen even after a hundred million of years.”
