C643 – Strength Has Increased
Zhang Tiangang found himself utterly bewildered by this comical sight.
Seeking counsel from the Tribulation Clouds?
Surely these individuals didn’t genuinely believe that the Tribulation Clouds would heed their words and disperse, did they?
If indeed the Tribulation Clouds were amenable to negotiation, there wouldn’t be such a multitude perishing under their lightning strikes.
In the ensuing moment, Zhang Tiangang collapsed to the ground with a ‘putong’ sound, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets.
To his astonishment, the sky’s Tribulation Clouds displayed the word ‘+1’.
Zhang Tiangang gulped nervously. Could negotiation truly be possible?
Was this the Tribulation Clouds making an offer?
This scene entirely upended his worldview.
A snicker emanated. Qiao Dangdang observed the dumbfounded Zhang Tiangang on the screen with a smirk before appending, “That’s what being dumbfounded looks like.”
However, Zhang Tiangang wasn’t inclined to confront Qiao Dangdang at that moment. He observed as Wu Jinghua tossed out another painting, causing the Tribulation Clouds to genuinely disperse!
Dispersed!
Zhang Tiangang’s head lifted so high it seemed almost poised to topple.
Can this truly be discussed?
Above the Ninth Heaven, the entirely dissipated Tribulation Clouds provided him with the answer.
Extending his hand, Zhang Tiangang summoned a painting into his grasp.
He gazed at the painting in astonishment. The profound Taoist Essence emanating from it nearly left him speechless.
“This painting… This is…”
Zhang Tiangang quivered with excitement, rendered speechless by his overwhelming emotions.
The Taoist Essence emanating from the painting surpassed even that of a high-grade Monarch Weapon.
Zhang Tiangang’s heart nearly emitted a groan.
This treasure surpassed even the dread of a Monarch Weapon!
Such a treasure existed in this world!
Witnessing a treasure already favored by the heavens, Wu Jinghua had just produced three of them.
Yet, Wu Jinghua shouldn’t possess many of these treasures.
What astonished him even more was the possibility of negotiating the Tribulation Clouds!
Those were the Ultimate Path Heavenly Tribulations!
If they had known the Tribulation Clouds could be negotiated, the Zhang family might be considerably more formidable at present.
“Old Ancestor, you…”
Wu Jinghua struggled to articulate upon seeing Zhang Tiangang seize his calligraphy and painting—a gift from the Old Ancestor.
Zhang Tiangang’s complexion flushed red, yet confronted with such a rare treasure, he couldn’t bring himself to relinquish it.
Despite his awareness of the shamelessness in coveting a treasure he had concealed, its value was simply too immense!
The thought of surrendering it was unbearable.
“Oh well, I’ll give it to you. After all, I still have a few hundred of these lying around.”
Confronted with Zhang Tiangang’s eager gaze, Wu Jinghua relented immediately, albeit with a hint of awkwardness in his tone.
“Haha!”
Zhang Tiangang felt as if his blood might spurt out from sheer excitement.
A few hundred?
Were these the scrolls and paintings exuding such potent Taoist charm?
Not just mere blank sheets of paper?
“Elder, do you desire this? I possess plenty of it here. Return it to Elder Wu!”
Despite Zhang Changsheng’s aversion to employing calligraphy and painting in combat, he still carried a few with him.
Zhang Tiangang remained silent.
What a disgrace, it brought shame upon the elders!
“Boom!”
A Grand Heavenly Path suddenly tore through the fabric of heaven and earth, piercing towards Wang Chuan.
The world trembled. Wang Chuan absorbed the ambient Spiritual Energy into his being, then abruptly opened his eyes.
“Hahaha… So this is the path of refinement. Master, I comprehend!”
Wang Chuan chuckled and gestured, retrieving a branch into his grasp. Ignoring everyone else, he commenced cutting it in silence.
……
Within the expanse of the Great Dao.
Zhang Xuan gazed at the celestial body manifesting above him and grinned.
The Great Dao Space had once more expanded, resembling now a miniature galaxy.
Surveying the tumultuous expanse, Zhang Xuan settled into a cross-legged position, delving into contemplation.
Unlike his peers who could perceive their bottlenecks, Zhang Xuan had never encountered such limitations before. Yet, now he sensed a constriction.
He harbored a conviction that breaking through this restrictive layer would catalyze a qualitative leap in his strength.
However, he remained uncertain about when he could liberate himself from dependence on the system.
Zhang Xuan harbored the belief that this day would arrive imminently.
With Zhang Changsheng and others discussing the impending great calamity, Zhang Xuan diligently utilized his time to fulfill missions, striving to elevate his strength to a level sufficient for safeguarding the village before the calamity struck.
Despite undertaking numerous missions, no stars had materialized. Now, Zhang Xuan comprehended that only through the emergence of stars could his strength truly surge.
While the Great Dao had expanded, the increment in his strength remained limited. It was only upon the birth of a new star that his power would undergo a substantial augmentation.
Finally, a new star had arisen. Zhang Xuan discerned a shift within his own body.
“Buzz!”
At that precise moment, a startling occurrence unfolded: the ethereal manifestation of the dog appeared atop the newly formed star.
Almost simultaneously, a Divine Ship materialized near the star.
“Wow!”
“Is this… Uncle Zhang’s Grand Dao Space?”
A voice filled with chatter broke the silence. “This isn’t my star, Guo Guo, is it yours?”
“It’s not mine; it’s covered with fruit trees!” Little Guo Guo exclaimed, then abruptly realized her mistake. She quickly clamped her small claws over her mouth, her large gem-like eyes darting around.
Laughter erupted after a brief moment of stunned silence.
As Loong Linshuang had previously mentioned, a planet likely reflects the preferences of its owner, as her planet abounds with treasures.
Little Guo Guo’s response further validated this notion, indicating Zhang Xuan’s fondness for the few small creatures.
This inadvertently provided them with a means of escape and an additional avenue for enhancing their cultivation.
Since Nannan and the others became fully attuned to their respective planets, their cultivation progressed noticeably faster.
However, what amused the larger individual was the revelation that the planet associated with the smaller one was teeming with fruit trees, painting the picture of a true food enthusiast.
“Why the laughter? Just because I’m young, is it a crime to enjoy eating?”
Little Guo Guo pouted, feeling unjustified amidst the laughter.
“Sister Nannan, what kind of things exist on your planet?” Little Guo Guo redirected everyone’s attention to Nannan.
Nannan clasped her hands behind her back, assuming a demeanor of solitary grandeur. With an air of elegance, she remarked, “On my planet, one finds towering mountains, meandering rivers, and breathtaking landscapes!”
Nannan’s words evoked admiration from those around her, though a few youngsters remained skeptical.
“Uncle Dog, why can only we enter our planet, while yours brought us here?” Loong Linshuang surveyed the surroundings with keen interest. The world sprawled vast and boundless, saturated with dense Spiritual Energy.
The dog’s gaze darkened, its claws splayed in a gesture of ignorance. Like the others, it too had been forcibly whisked away.
“Hey, everyone, look over there!”
Little Guo Guo suddenly extended her petite claws, pointing towards the clouds.
