Gate of God

Swoosh! A beam of sword light struck.

The Godly Beast who was at the back immediately fell to the ground and his rear limbs got slashed by the sword as his head hit the ground hard.

Soon after, Ping Yang and Yan Xiu started to move.

Both of them pounced onto the Godly Beast and beat him up until he could see stars and roared in agony while cupping his head.

This scene made one speechless.

“Ping Yang is… beating up a Godly Beast?!” Qian Yu looked at her strangely.

Since ancient times, all parents wanted their children to grow up, however, it was difficult for her to accept this extent of “growth”.

Apart from Qian Yu, Lin Mubai was also stunned.

Meanwhile, Mu Qingfeng, the other onlookers and the Emperor and the other soldiers of the Four Great Empires had their mouths agape in shock when they witnessed the scene.

“The world has changed…”

“Humans have made a comeback!”

“This is amazing!”

The army of the Four Great Empires was astonished but cheered vigorously after they regained their senses.

Meanwhile, Mu Qingfeng, Yan Qianli and the rest exchanged glances and all of them had an extremely complicated look on their faces. Although they witnessed it with their own eyes, they felt speechless by the scene in front of them.

Half of the territory…

Was really taken over by Fang Zhengzhi?!

“This brat is really…”

“Each generation is getting better than the previous one!”

Mu Qingfeng and Yan Qianli exclaimed. This was unpredictable. In the past, they thought Fang Zhengzhi was just being overly-ambitious and arrogant when he said he wanted to take over half of the land of the Source of God.

However, the reality was cruel.

Soon after, almost every one of the twenty over Godly Beasts had fled to the other side and only two Godly Beasts were left on the ground, beaten up by Ping Yang, Yan Xiu and Fang Zhengzhi.

“Roar!”

“Roar… stop it!”

The two Godly Beasts were screaming in agony.

However, it was rather useless. Fang Zhengzhi and the rest did not show mercy at all and continued beating them up. If they had shown mercy now, they would have been perceived as being weak and timid.

They could only have a foothold if they beat the Godly Beasts up until they were afraid of them.

Fang Zhengzhi knew this and did not show mercy to the two Godly Beasts who were left behind. With the strike of his sword radiance, the two Monster Pearls rolled on the ground.

“Gulp!” Fang Zhengzhi took one in each hand and stuffed them into his mouth. Then, he smacked his lips and swallowed the pearls.

His Small Dimension started to vibrate.

The turbulent seawater tumbled non-stop and huge waves were formed. There were a few violent and gigantic swirl pools in the sea and they glowed with radiance.

He swallowed five Monster Pearls of the Godly Beasts continuously.

Fang Zhengzhi felt that no matter how vast his Small Dimension was, he should have managed to make a breakthrough.

He was waiting for the breakthrough to the Godly State so that he could run over and get the fruit back.

However, the expected breakthrough…

Still did not happen.

“What’s going on?” Fang Zhengzhi was extremely confused. He could not understand why the five Monster Pearls were still insufficient to help him break through the Godly State.

He had swallowed five, five Godly Beasts’ Monster Pearls.

He still remembered how Ping Yang managed to reach the Sagely State with merely one Monster King’s Monster Pearl. Her progress was extremely fast.

Why did it become so difficult for him?

Could it be he needed more Monster Pearls?

Fang Zhengzhi thought that it was possible but was not sure because, after all, he remembered that he had left a Monster Pearl for Chi Guyan.

Then, Chi Guyan woke up and successfully reached the Sagely State.

Hold on…

Lin Ji was a Godly State Expert.

By right, Ping Yang should have been able to break through to the Godly State. However, Lin Ji’s Monster Pearl only managed to help Chi Guyan reach the Sagely State Instead of the Godly State.

“I get it!” Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes lit up. He was only speculating earlier on but now he could tell where the problem lied.

It was the quality!

Not the quantity!

Although the ancient saying went, quantity affected the quality, it was not simple to have a quality change.

Take Chi Guyan’s breakthrough for example.

During the battle in the Heaven Zen Mountain, Chi Guyan showed signs of a breakthrough and managed to show equivalent skills of the Sagely State.

However, she fell unconscious because she had insufficient Origin Energy.

Chi Guyan had fulfilled other conditions to make a breakthrough to the Sagely State and only lacked the quantity.

Fang Zhengzhi left behind a Monster Pearl of the Godly State for Chi Guyan when he left the Northern Mountain Village.

This gave Chi Guyan the chance for a breakthrough.

However, she only managed to make it to the Sagely State.

Origin Energy!

The more Origin Energy one had, the harder it was for one to make a breakthrough!

This sounded incredible as, after all, by right, the more the Origin Energy, the easier it should be for a breakthrough.

However, the reality was not as such.

The more the Origin Energy, the more time was needed for one to change the nature of one’s Origin Energy.

Using the analogy of adding sugar to water to sweeten it, one only needed two scoops of white sugar to sweeten a cup of water but what about sweetening a pail of water?

One needed way more than two scoops of sugar!

Fang Zhengzhi’s Origin Energy was as vast as an ocean. To turn these Origin Energy from the Sagely State to the Godly State, he needed much more time.

This could be said as a disadvantage.

However, once he succeeded, his skills would increase exponentially.

Fang Zhengzhi had a good experience in this aspect. Even if he did not manage to break through to the Godly State, his energy increased by seven or eight times.

It was comparable with Ping Yang and Yan Xiu.

This also meant that Fang Zhengzhi’s Origin Energy had been transforming continuously in the process of a breakthrough, changing from the Sagely State to the Godly State.

However, he had yet to transform completely and hence there were no signs of the Godly State yet.

“That’s right, he was advancing to the Godly State and needed some time to achieve that!” Fang Zhengzhi figured it out and his grievances disappeared.

Meanwhile, in his Small Dimension, as the waves tumbled, the seawater became purer and radiance could be seen from the bottom part of the sea.

Initially, the seawater was extremely clear.

Yet now, the seawater was like a flowing gemstone and nearly half of the seawater were glistening.

Wait a little longer!

He just had to wait a little longer to reach the Godly State.

“What should we do now? Those brats are enjoying themselves by fighting over the fruit, should we join in too?” Ping Yang’s voice could be heard and she looked extremely excited.

“I don’t think that’s very appropriate.” Yan Xiu shook his head.

He did not state the reason but he could tell from Fang Zhengzhi’s expression that it was not wise for them to snatch the fruit now.

“Hmm, Yan Xiu is right. We don’t have to snatch the fruit.” Chi Guyan nodded and told Ping Yang to not be rash.

“Why? We will definitely win these Godly Beasts if we collaborated, right?” Ping Yang could not understand because the humans had half of the territory of the Source of God.

Moreover, the Godly Beasts were fearful of them.

Why weren’t they joining in the fight over the fruit?

“The fruit is indeed the main target that the Godly Beasts were going after. The shameless brat made use of this fact to obtain half of the territory of the Source of God,” explained Chi Guyan, “If we fight for the fruit now, not only will we risk triggering the Godly Beasts, but we might also lose the territory we have.”

“Ah? It’s so dangerous?” Ping Yang’s mouth was agape.

“Haha… Yan’er only mentioned the less serious consequences, it could be even more dangerous than that.” Fang Zhengzhi smiled too.

Meanwhile, Qian Yu and Mu Qingfeng had reached Fang Zhengzhi.

“Yang’er, come over here to mom.”

“Mother!” Ping Yang looked happy when she saw Qian Yu. “Mom and Dad, guess what Enlightenment State I am at now!”

“Yang’er, did you manage to break through to the Godly State?” Lin Mubai guessed.

“Hmm, yes, Father!” Ping Yang nodded and pointed at Chi Guyan and Yan Xiu who was beside her. “Sister Yan and Yan Xiu also managed to reach the Godly State.”

“All of them reached the Godly State?!”

“…”

“…”

Hearing it with their ears and seeing it were two separate matters.

Mu Qingfeng and Lin Mubai had witnessed how Fang Zhengzhi and the rest chased after the Godly Beasts. However, they were still extremely astonished when they heard Ping Yang’s affirmation.

Everyone managed to reach the Godly State.

What exactly…

Happened at the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain?

“Not everyone, the shameless brat hasn’t!” Ping Yang shook her head and waved at Fang Zhengzhi. “I’m correct, right?”

“Haha…” Fang Zhengzhi could not deny.

However, Mu Qingfeng and Lin Mubai were astonished again.

Fang Zhengzhi did not break through to the Godly State?!

It was impossible!

They had seen how Fang Zhengzhi killed a Godly Beast with his sword with their own eyes. Moreover, Fang Zhengzhi kept swallowing the Monster Pearls of the Godly Beasts, with such a terrifying power, how could he have not managed to breakthrough?

“Brat, you are still at the Sagely State?” Qian Yu could not believe it as it did not make sense.

“Haha, not yet.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

He had not made a breakthrough. Although the Origin Energy within his Small Dimension was changing continuously, he had yet to reach the Godly State.

“That’s what I said earlier on. Shameless brat, you are one state lower than me, do you know that?” Ping Yang raised her head and looked extremely arrogant.

Fang Zhengzhi ignored Ping Yang.

He looked around casually and pointed at the Source of God which was blooming with flowers and said, “Auntie, this is temporarily our territory, please feel free to take as many flowers as you want!”

“Take as many flowers as I want?” Qian Yu just arrived and did not know the purpose of the land of the Source of God.

“Tower Master Qian, you can increase your Origin Power by eating these flowers. After eating more than ten of this flower, I am reaching the Godly State soon,” explained Mu Qingfeng.

“What?! These flowers can help you breakthrough to the Godly State?”

“That’s right, if you can find the fruit, then you can make a breakthrough immediately!” affirmed Mu Qingfeng.

“This…” Qian Yu was excited.

Even someone like her did not expect to make a breakthrough to the Godly State. This was extremely enticing for her.

After all, everybody in this field wanted to improve, right?

“Now that we own half of the territory, you can feel free to pick all the flowers here. However, try not to enter the other half before you manage to breakthrough.” Fang Zhengzhi could read Qian Yu’s mind and pointed at the boundary line nearby.

Qian Yu and Lin Mubai looked at each other and figured it out.

The scene of Fang Zhengzhi chasing after the Godly Beasts was due to a fight over the territory of the Source of God.

It was too overwhelming!

How did Fang Zhengzhi do that?!

Qian Yu and Lin Mubai were both extremely astonished but they did not have the time to care about it as the Source of God was extremely attractive.

Meanwhile, nearby, the other emperors of the three dynasties, especially the Emperor of the Holy Barbarian Empire, stood rooted to the ground with a pale face.

Fang Zhengzhi allowed Lin Mubai and Qian Yu to pluck the flowers as they wished.

However, he did not allow them to do so.

Therefore, even if they wanted to, how would they dare to pluck?

The scene of Fang Zhengzhi chasing after the Godly Beast was sufficient to make them worried and did not dare to move forward.

“This… Fang… Oh, no, I mean Prince Cang, I heard that I have a son who had fortunately sought your guidance in the Heaven Dao Pavilion. Without you, my son would not have made the breakthrough…”

“Are you the Emperor of the Radiant Moon Empire?” Fang Zhengzhi broke off the sentence of a man in the dragon robe and smiled.

“Yes.” The Emperor of the Radiant Moon Empire nodded immediately.

“Pick 100 elites to enter and pluck the flowers. Remember, if anyone finds the fruit, they can’t take it, or else…” Fang Zhengzhi had yet to finish his sentence.

“I understand, I will kill them myself!” The Emperor of the Prince Cang nodded immediately.

He did not agree out of fear. Instead, he understood that the best choice was to gather the resources for the people who had the greatest chances of making a breakthrough.”

The future of humankind was at stake.

The more powerful had to bear more responsibility.

“Prince Cang… Actually, the War Pinnacle Empire has some connections with you too, I’m not sure if you still remember Yan Qing…” A man wearing purple purple dragon robe stood out and said.

“100 elites, same condition.” Fang Zhengzhi waved his hand.

“Thank you Prince Cang, thank you! I, the Emperor of the War Pinnacle Empire, thank you for your help on behalf of our people!” The Emperor of the War Pinnacle Empire gave thanks immediately.

“Hold on!” At this moment, a voice was heard and a figure walked beside Wu Yuer.

Her snow-white dress was swaying in the air.

Indeed, it was Yun Qingwu.
