In the wooden hut on the beach, two figures were surrounded by books. One was reading intently while the other was calculating with their fingers. The two occasionally muttered to each other:

"The Queen Mother of the West is in charge of the path of punishment, not related to the soul."

"The Deputy Deity of Lifespan in the Heavenly Palace is in charge of the lifespan and fate of all living beings, while the Junior Deity of Lifespan is in charge of the inheritance of descendants. It's useless to catch them, and they are Emperor Di Shun's trusted confidants. We must first take down the Heavenly Palace before touching them."

"There is a witch god named Nv Chou, and there is a giant crab with a back as wide as a thousand miles, leading the souls of the dead to the crab's back."

"This is an evil god who has done evil in the Human Realm before. The so-called divine country he built is not a paradise, but a gathering place for believers for his own pleasure."

"Senior, there is a ghost country near the North Wilderness..."

"The ghost country is not a country of souls, but the name of an ancient country that is similar to the bloodline of your Deep Eye tribe in the North Wilderness..."

And so on, the two stayed in the hut for a few days. At Wu Wang's suggestion, Shen Nong decided to find more helpers and make use of the abundant collection of books in the Human Realm. The Great Wasteland was too vast, and even the knowledgeable Emperor could not claim to know everything.

Just as Shen Nong was about to use his divine sense to call for his ministers, Wu Wang suddenly spoke up, "Senior, I have something to ask of you."

"Oh?" Shen Nong looked at Wu Wang and said calmly, "Just say it. We have a grandfather-grandson relationship, no need to be so formal."

Wu Wang:...

It was useless to try to flatter Jing Wei.

"Senior," Wu Wang sighed and looked worried. "Have you noticed anything strange about my body?"

"Oh?" Shen Nong looked Wu Wang up and down, his gaze gradually becoming sharp. He stroked his beard and smiled, "I only noticed that your aura has changed before. You have the Star-Praying Technique, so I didn't look too closely. Wu Wang, have you awakened some kind of bloodline? Why do you have a hint of star god power in your body? This power is quite pure. If your ancestors were descendants of the star god, it's likely that the number of iterations is not high, or there was some kind of opportunity that filtered out impurities."

Wu Wang forced a smile, but didn't hide anything. He briefly recounted the events after swallowing the spiritual fruit, attempting to quickly ascend to the Golden Elixir realm by using up his spiritual power, and accidentally triggering the prohibition set by the star god, which would have destroyed him if not for his mother awakening his star god bloodline. Because his mother had warned him not to reveal the origin of the star god's blood, Wu Wang made a simple modification, implying that his ancestors were descendants of the star god.

Shen Nong pondered for a moment and said, "For you, this is both a blessing and a curse, and the two are intertwined. It depends on whether the star god awakens. Based on the power you gained from the bloodline and technique, you will inevitably be influenced by their source. Now that you have awakened the star god bloodline, you are already half a god, and the star god can control you with a thought."

Wu Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. That's good. If his mother had openly taken the star god's blood, he didn't have to worry about these things.

Wu Wang made a sad expression and said, "Alas, my mother said that the star god is probably... sigh!"

Shen Nong couldn't help but lightly laugh, and said in a warm voice, "Is this what you wanted to ask me?"

"Yes," Wu Wang replied.Wu Wang shook his head and directly took off his robe, then used his magic to set up two layers of barriers.

Shen Nong said, "Why are you hiding like this?"

"It's embarrassing if she sees me like this."

So Shen Nong opened more than ten barriers.

Wu Wang took a deep breath, and more than ten spots of light appeared all over his body. The power of stars gathered out of nowhere and circulated in his body.

With a low roar that seemed between reality and illusion, he had already revealed half of his golden scales.

Shen Nong's eyes brightened and he walked around Wu Wang twice, then took a small hammer and tapped on Wu Wang's arm and leg, making a crisp sound.

Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the "[pawread.c𝘰m]"

"These scales are so strong that they are probably as sturdy as the main scales of a ferocious beast that has lived for ten thousand years."

Then, Shen Nong held Wu Wang's arm and asked in a low voice, "Do you feel anything?"

"No...ah! It hurts! Senior, I was wrong!"

Shen Nong shook his head and said, "You are a bit showy, but not very useful. It should be related to your weak strength. It's no problem to block a sword from an immortal. "

After speaking, Shen Nong smiled kindly and whispered, "Can you give me a few scales?"

"What are you going to do with them?"

"I want to see if they can be used as medicine."

Wu Wang: ...

After a while, Wu Wang silently withdrew his transformation and lay down on the bed, hugging himself with a trace of tears in his eyes.

Shen Nong carefully studied the golden scales, occasionally saying "the purity is good" and "the hardness is very high", and then crushed them into powder and analyzed their structure. He also took out the Hundred Herbs Classic and wrote something.

"Oh, Wu Wang, what did you ask me to do?"

Wu Wang sighed weakly, "Senior...please spread a rumor in the Human Realm that a golden dragon will appear, which is a sign of good luck...This way, if I reveal my transformation in the Human Realm, I can still have a way out."

"That's a small matter," Shen Nong stroked his beard and smiled, "But don't use it to do bad things."

"I have a strange illness and can't touch other women."

"That's true," Shen Nong's smile became even stronger. He collected the golden scale powder and said in a gentle voice, "I will go out and contact them. I will definitely emphasize what you asked me to do."

When he left, he muttered to himself, saying that it was really good and that the curse of that Tian Shen was really strange.

Wu Wang covered himself with delicate animal skin and thought about the scene where Senior Shen Nong had casually taken away the scales he considered to be as strong as those of a ferocious beast that had lived for ten thousand years...

He really cried.

...

Before the next meeting with Jing Wei arrived, Wu Wang received a definite reply from the Human Realm.

There was a record in an ancient scroll that, in order to revive the deceased Shi Ren, a human expert had secretly searched the Great Wasteland and found three places that were beneficial to the souls in the world.

Unfortunately, Shi Ren ultimately chose to protect the Fire Dao and burned his own soul completely.

Among these three secret places, there was one called the "Gate of the Netherworld". It was a battlefield left over from an ancient god's battle, and it was originally a damaged treasure left behind by ancient powerhouses. If this treasure could be activated, it could allow the souls to live again in this world.

When Wu Wang heard this news, he immediately asked his mother through the necklace, and the reply he received was similar.

New problems followed.

First, how to activate this treasure.

If they went through all the trouble to reach the Gate of the Netherworld but didn't know how to open it, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

Second, the entrance to that ancient battlefield was dangerous..."In the land where the sun sets, there is Yu Yuan."

Shen Nong's face became slightly serious as he spoke these six words and fell into contemplation.

Wu Wang knew what this senior was worried about.

Yu Yuan, the westernmost point of the Great Wasteland.

The sun goddess Xi He drove her chariot every day, carrying the sun from the Tang Valley in the east and controlling the speed of the chariot to arrive at Yu Yuan to set the sun on time.

As for how Xi He returned to Tang Valley, some said she went from the back of the Great Wasteland, while others said she drove through the stars, allowing the sun to rest after shining for a day.

"Xi He's strength should not be underestimated, and she is also Emperor Di Shun's wife," Shen Nong sighed, "and the gates of Yu Yuan only open at sunset, so it's not easy to avoid alarming Xi He."

Wu Wang said, "What if we use the name of the Star God...?"

"You must not interfere in this matter," Shen Nong's eyes were somewhat stern, "I will take my son and leave later, and you should immediately go to the Human Realm and hide yourself by any means necessary. Before you have the strength to fight against the Sky God, do not let them notice you. Be patient and endure small things to plan for big things."

Wu Wang smiled, "Why are you suddenly so nervous about me, senior?"

"Have you not thought about the path you are taking now?"

Shen Nong looked at Wu Wang with a serious expression, which made Wu Wang put away his playful smile.

The senior said slowly, "Do not take unnecessary risks and do not attract the attention of the Ten Calamities Palace too early. I told you to remove the Ten Calamities Palace, but you don't need to worry about it now. Go to the Human Realm, find a Xianzong, hide your name and identity, and focus on cultivation."

Wu Wang was a little confused and thought that Shen Nong was protecting his son-in-law, which was reasonable.

As they spoke, Shen Nong pointed at Wu Wang, and the Yan Emperor's command at Wu Wang's Lingtai trembled slightly, and the flames around him turned transparent.

In an instant, Wu Wang's aura became calm and ethereal.

"This way you can conceal your special abilities."

Shen Nong spoke in a warm voice, "I don't want to say too much more. Saying more won't be helpful to you. Remember..."

"Senior, I want to help with something."

"Don't forget that you are still the young master of the North Wilderness clan."

"But..."

"Don't worry."

Shen Nong patted Wu Wang's shoulder and said with a heavy tone, "You can't help now, you're too weak. Just wait for news in the Human Realm."

Wu Wang made an awkward smile.

He felt uncomfortable and couldn't refute the senior's words.

This old senior was just retaliating against him!

Shen Nong said, "After the matter is done, I won't deliberately look for you. I will only spread the news in the Human Realm that I have returned from the westernmost point. When you hear this news, you can wait in peace. I will take care of the rest and find a chance to make up for my mistakes as a father."

"But..."

"Go and accompany her," Shen Nong said slowly, "this matter should be done sooner rather than later. I will go and talk to her, and if she agrees, I will take her away."

Wu Wang hurriedly said, "Isn't it said that her obsession is in the East Sea, so she can't leave the East Sea?"

"I have my ways," Shen Nong took out a jade box from his sleeve and took out a pill, "this can nourish her soul in the spirit medicine for several months."

Several months.

Wu Wang felt a little lost, but he also knew that he would only cause trouble if he followed along, so he nodded in agreement.

"I'll adjust my state and then go see her."

"Good."

Shen Nong picked up his wooden staff and disappeared under the divine tree.Wu Wang set up two layers of barriers, changed into new clothes, tidied up his messy hair, and patted his cheeks with a happy smile.

This farewell was for a better reunion in the future.

Jing Wei was just a remnant soul and not really alive. Although she had never expressed it actively, Wu Wang had seen the dead silence and sadness in her eyes when she was absent-minded more than once.

What could he do?

"Before we meet again, overcome your strange illness! Have a proper love relationship under the same roof and share the same grave!"

Half an hour later, Shen Nong called Wu Wang over, and Jing Wei stood under the divine tree, looking at Wu Wang with a full expression of reluctance, but still smiling.

"Father wants to take me to find a way to live another life..."

"Having the top expert of the Great Wasteland as a father is really fortunate," Wu Wang said with a smile.

"Um," Jing Wei replied softly, looking to the side and saying in a low voice, "Actually, I don't want to continue living."

Wu Wang was stunned.

She spoke softly, as if she were talking about something trivial.

"For a long time, I can't remember how long, I have been flying around like this. If it were just aimless, it would be fine, but in order to maintain my sanity, I wake up every once in a while. I'm stuck in this small array... It's hard to endure every time I wake up."

On the side, Shen Nong's face was a little gray, and he bowed his head in silence.

Wu Wang looked at Jing Wei's trembling shoulders and asked softly, "Then why..."

"Because Father doesn't want to see me die, and I don't want to make him too sad."

Jing Wei sighed softly, "Father has paid for the Human Realm for a lifetime, but in the end, he only has me as a relative. If I go, he will be very lonely. I thought like this and slowly endured it."

Shen Nong lowered his head, tears streaming down his face.

"But it won't be like this in the future."

Jing Wei raised her head and looked at Wu Wang, her eyes becoming clearer.

"I find you very interesting. If I can live again, I will find you and see you every day without waiting for 36 days. At that time..."

"I will wait for you."

Wu Wang smiled, "I will definitely wait for you."

"Father said that the Gate of the Underworld will let me live another life in the Great Wasteland, but I can't be sure where I will be born... I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of? We will definitely meet," Wu Wang said firmly, "If I can't find you, I will keep looking for you."

Jing Wei shook her head lightly, tears welling up in her eyes, and then she covered her mouth and laughed, nodding vigorously.

Beside them, Shen Nong took out the pill, and a misty gas cluster rose from the pill, slowly rotating like a gateway.

Jing Wei took two steps back, reluctant to leave Wu Wang.

Wu Wang squinted and waved his hand. Jing Wei nodded vigorously, bowed slightly to Wu Wang, and turned to walk towards the colorful light that wrapped the gas cluster.

She stopped and turned to look at Wu Wang, whispering, "Thank you, Wu Wang, for accompanying me these past few years..."

Wu Wang smiled, took two steps forward, and then stopped. He had originally wanted to say goodbye with a smile, but as Jing Wei's figure gradually merged into the gas cluster, he shouted out:

"Wait for me, I will definitely find you!

I will find you through mountains and rivers!

I will introduce you to my friends and take you to meet my parents!

Wherever you are reincarnated, wait for me!"

Wait for me...The energy cluster slowly retracted back into the elixir, and Shen Nong had already put the elixir into the jade box, quickly wrapping it with several strands of immortal light.

Wu Wang, like he had lost all his strength, fell and sat under the divine tree, not even noticing that he had been brought out of the large formation by Shen Nong.
