316 The Valley Head Cant Hold out for Long! (2/2)
”The next time I return, the black puppy will already have inherited its memories... Whether it chooses to stay by my side or not, I, Zhou Donghuang, already had a positive and fortunate encounter with this divine beast cub...”
The black puppy was a divine beast cub, after all. After it managed to inherit its memories, Zhou Donghuang was unsure as to whether it would have a change of heart or not.
However, no matter the outcome, he would respect the black puppy's wishes.
From a personal perspective, Zhou Donghuang of course hoped that this divine beast would stay by his side as it would be a tremendous boost of strength.
Divine beasts were the elite beasts of the universe, and they were extremely rare as well. Such an existence meant that their talents, learning ability and growth all improved at tremendous speeds!
Furthermore, as long as divine beasts did not give up halfway and continued to develop themselves, they would definitely become divine beings!
Previously, in order to get the black puppy and boost his powers, Zhou Donghuang had visited the forest where it lived.
However, when he personally met this black puppy, and after interacting with it for a short time, he suddenly felt that he was rather selfish in the past. Some things could not be forced. If not, they would possibly backfire.
Divine beasts were not easily controlled by human will, after all.
”How time flies! It's been close to five years since I left the Ziyun planet.”
After leaving the Guiyao planet, Zhou Donghuang did not return to the Tielao planet. The Tielao planet was close to the Guiyao planet, but other than that, there were other nearby planets, and so he randomly picked one to go to.
Using the galaxy teleporter, he was sent to another galaxy near to the Kaiyuan galaxy, where the Ziyun planet was.
This was also the first galaxy that he had arrived at after leaving the Ziyun planet four years ago, and this was the same galaxy teleporter that he had used at that time.
The Akiyama galaxy.
The Heyu planet.
The North Desert.
He now felt a sense of nostalgia as he returned to where he had been four years ago.
Previously, when he had first arrived here, he was pursued by three Golden Essence adepts as they wanted to steal his wealth.
However, they had underestimated him, and he ended up killing them instead.
”The Ziyun planet!”
As he stepped out from the galaxy teleporter of the North Desert, Zhou Donghuang felt as if he were traveling through time once again. As he headed for the Ziyun planet, which was situated in the Kaiyuan galaxy, he had also traveled along this path in the past, and it was now familiar to him.
Of course, he was now much more talented. Within a mere few days, he managed to travel the entire distance and quickly appeared before the familiar planet.
”I've arrived.”
Seeing the planet before him, Zhou Donghuang's originally impassive gaze became warm in an instant.
No matter if it was Earth or the Ziyun planet—he viewed them all as his home.
Now that he was finally back, he felt a sort of calm and gratefulness surge through him.
Whoosh!
…
Four years was enough for many things to happen.
If one wanted to discuss the Ziyun planet, nothing much had changed over the last four years other than the new Transcendental Force that popped up on the planet. This was the ”Donghuang Sect” that Zhou Donghuang, whom everyone on the planet viewed as a top adept, had created.
At the start, the Donghuang Sect was rather empty. Although it was esteemed, it still had few disciples in the sect.
However, with the influence of the Donghuang Sect Leader, Zhou Donghuang, who was mysterious and seldom seen, countless people had arrived from all over just to join the sect on the Ziyun planet.
Because of that, after four years, the Donghuang Sect had already become an elite sect within the Ziyun planet and was extremely well known.
Even without the mysterious Sect Leader Zhou Donghuang, the Donghuang Sect now was skilled enough to battle with other top elite sects, and it could possibly even exceed them in terms of development.
The Donghuang Peak was where the Donghuang Sect was located.
Right now, in a spacious courtyard at the center of the Donghuang Peak, three beautiful ladies were sitting before a table with tension lingering in the air.
”Sister Mengxi, is there really no other way? I can't believe it…” Yang Zixi stared at He Mengxi across the table and spoke up with a worried look.
”Uncle He Jin is a Divine Transformation adept and should be much more powerful than those at the Primordial Soul stage, so how can he die because of mere poison?”
In Yang Zixi's eyes, a Primal Core adept was already considered impressive. In this case, Primordial Soul adepts definitely trumped any Primal Core adepts, much less Divine Transformation adepts who were much stronger. Because of this, she greatly admired Divine Transformation adepts for their sheer power.
How could someone at the Divine Transformation stage die because of mere poison?
”Zixi, this is not a normal type of poison,” He Mengxi replied with a bitter expression.
”This is poison from the Qi Dynasty, and it was created by a Divine Transformation adept who specializes in it. Rumor has it that anybody at the late Divine Transformation stage or below is sure to die if they are infected with this poison!
”The fact that my father could hold out until now is only because little brother managed to give him an extremely strong training method. If not, he would have died a long time ago,” He Mengxi replied.
Just as she had spoken, an urgent voice rang out from outside, and this caused He Mengxi's face to drastically change.
”Senior Sister! Senior Sister! Valley Head can't hold on for much longer! He wants to see you for the last time!”
