“My son is reading? Being your father, I naturally brought something you like to eat.” Ying Shan Lie Hu flipped his hand. He supported a wooden tray with a hand, and on this wooden tray placed some wooden steamer and jade plates with delicious food placed in them. The sweet smell diffused out of the food.

That time when Xue Ying chased after the Destruction Devils, he had tasted all kinds of delicious food across the primal chaos void. Now that he was reincarnated into the Realm Heart Great Land, other than reading books, he frequented all the famous restaurants in Ardent Fire City. He had also eaten many nice snacks from the road stalls. And now, quite a lot of aristocratic clan disciples knew that this Little Prince Xue Ying was someone who liked good food.

“Elder Tian, I am entering closed-door cultivation. Ensure nobody come and disturbs me.” Xue Ying turned around and slipped away.

“My son, my son.” Ying Shan Lie Hu walked over.

Elder Tian stood right in front of Ying Shan Lie Hu, blocking him from proceeding on: “Prince Xue Ying is going to enter closed-door cultivation. You can’t disturb him.”

“Ai.”

Ying Shan Lie Hu could only purse his lips helplessly after seeing this. He then casually brought some delicacies from one of the wooden steamers into his mouth, “Such good food yet he doesn’t want to eat. Truly… oh, I’ll just let Xing Lan eat them.”

Ying Shan Lie Hu turned around and went to find Rong Xing Lan next.

Elder Tian saw this and muttered to himself, “This Ying Shan Lie Hu has a really thick skin.”

The two Black Stream Cloud Wolves that were lying on the ground glanced at the leaving Ying Shan Lie Hu before closing their eyes and went back to deep sleep.

…

“Hu, I can’t even beat him or expel him away. His skin is so thick too. He is giving me a huge headache.” Xue Ying hid into a tall pagoda. The pagoda contained bursts of distorted spatial flow. At its center, there was a huge stone about 3.3cm in diameter floating. Xue Ying immediately sat down cross-legged on this stone the moment he entered.

Some of the distorted spatial flow continued streaming in the surrounding, while some permeated into the body of Xue Ying.

This was a Void God Pagoda bought specially from the Ardent Fire Marquisdom for Xue Ying to cultivate the “Southern Cloud 12 Sacred Styles”.

“My father of this life?” Xue Ying shook his head.

He did not like this Ying Shan Lie Hu in his heart.

After all, before his startling birth, Ying Shan Lie Hu did not care about the lives of his children. He only knew how to enjoy! He did not have the slightest feeling towards Rong Xing Lan in the past. Just this reason alone led Xue Ying to resent him.

It’s only…

His birth was too dazzling. Ying Shan Lie Hu had come here once every few days with a smile and full of passion. Xue Ying ignored him, yet Ying Shan Lie Hu would turn around to coax Rong Xing Lan. Rong Xing Lan discovered that her husband was treating her well. Even though she knew the other party was deliberately fawning on her, she gradually forgave him.

The relationship between Rong Xing Lan and Ying Shan Lie Hu became well after that. Xue Ying could only try his best to avoid the other party: “Whatever, as long as Mother is happy, and for him not to make disasters, I’ll just treat him as an amusing person.”

“Since I’ve entered closed-door cultivation, I should properly cultivate.”

Xue Ying looked at the book in his hand. He then kept it. This book introduced the Southern Cloud King.

These few years…

Xue Ying collected quite a few books describing the Southern Cloud King. He also collected some intelligence, and from hence he discovered that the Southern Cloud King had long reached the ‘pinnacle of void-ification’, and even had avatars! This gave Xue Ying the feeling that he had a bright future within the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion, and it was worth him spending the effort to cultivate this.

After keeping the book, Xue Ying began his cultivation on the floating rock.

Xue Ying was different from others. He did not have any bottlenecks when he cultivated the “Southern Cloud 12 Sacred Styles”. After all, the highest level of this simplified version would only enable the cultivator to reach the God Yuan Palace ninth level strength. In addition to how strong the Southern Cloud King was, the art he created was even easier to learn, and its difficulty was equivalent to reaching the Star Pagoda eighth level in his previous life.

Adding up to how similar the void between both origin worlds was, it was natural for Xue Ying not to have any bottlenecks in cultivating.

As for the other main cultivation path he planned on taking, the ‘Dao of Mirage’, due to the drastic differences between the laws and profound mysteries here, cultivating it was much slower. This was also the reason why Xue Ying decided to first reach the Primal Chaos realm using the Dao of Void. With a stronger soul, his cultivation of the Dao of Mirage would become much faster.

“Hong long long~” His body rumbled.

A total of eight crystal pillars were embedded within the Void God Pagoda. The distorted spatial streams that were generated were permeating into the body of Xue Ying continuously. This caused the precious medicines that were applied on the body of Xue Ying to seep into his muscles, bones and blood vessels, making the bloodline in it more concentrated. Actually, this Void God Pagoda was meant primarily for refining the Southern Cloud Sacred Body.

“Southern Cloud 12 Sacred Styles” contained an important refining cultivation technique, the ‘Southern Cloud Sacred Body’.
