With a trace of doubt, Luo Hou headed all the way north.
When he arrived at the extreme northern land, he was directly stunned by the scene ahead. In what should have been an empty starfield, an ice and snow world appeared out of nowhere.
"Is this an illusion?"
Luo Hou couldn’t help but rub his eyes.
Yet his feet couldn’t stop moving forward.
Because upon arriving here, he felt the pull of a stronger summoning force.
Mysteriously, it was as if an invisible voice was telling him that there was a great opportunity ahead, one that could help him escape danger and defeat his arch-enemy.
"Hiss!"
As he got closer to the world of ice and snow, Luo Hou felt a bone-piercing chill, making the hair on his body stand on end.
When he finally stood on the ice and snow world, even with his physique, Luo Hou couldn’t help but take a sharp breath, stopping the flow of the demonic blood within him.
This world comes from the River of Time.
Luo Hou surveyed his surroundings, thinking quietly to himself.
Following that gravitational pull, Luo Hou trudged through the ice and snow world with difficulty, continuously circulating his cultivation technique to ward off the cold, just barely avoiding being frozen into an ice sculpture.
His feet stepped on thick snow, making a ’squeak’ sound.
In the silent environment, it was particularly harsh to the ears.
After walking dozens of miles.
Luo Hou came to a canyon area, where amidst the vast expanse of white snow, there was a pool of clear spring water, ice-blue in color, constantly emitting steam.
In the center of the clear spring, an ancient tree was growing.
Two fruits hung on the tree.
One fruit was a dragon.
The other fruit was a phoenix.
Exuding a tempting fragrance, Luo Hou lightly inhaled a breath, feeling an increase in his internal energy.
If it were consumed.
Wouldn’t he directly break through to the demigod realm?
Thinking of this, Luo Hou couldn’t help but swallow, filled with excitement.
However, being cautious, he did not let greed cloud his mind, instead inspecting around the clear spring to rule out any possible hidden dangers.
Most heavenly treasures have guardian beasts.
Luo Hou didn’t want to become a snack for a guardian beast.
"Strange, there really isn’t one?"
After half a moment, Luo Hou frowned while looking at the clear spring, and in his hand, there was an additional stele, which he had dug out from the ice and snow.
There were three lines of writing on the stele.
Plant Dragon and Phoenix Divine Fruits, waiting for someone destined to devour them.
Time remains!
Upon seeing the stele, Luo Hou realized that there was no danger here. And the reason he had not immediately picked the ’Dragon and Phoenix Divine Fruits’ was because he had doubts in his heart.
He recalled that the master of the Taoist book had said someone was plotting against him!
Could the ’Dragon and Phoenix Divine Fruits’ before him be part of that plot?
Otherwise, why would the treasures from the River of Time appear in the endless universe?
"Forget it!"
Suddenly, Luo Hou seemed relieved and shook his head with a smile, "I, who have already been through death, even if someone is plotting against me, let them do so. Perhaps..."
"I can still avenge my grievances!"
With that said.
He slightly tapped his toe and fell into the clear spring, picking off the ’Dragon and Phoenix Divine Fruits’, swallowing them in one bite.
The ’Dragon and Phoenix Divine Fruits’ entered his body, transforming into a pure, sacred, and transcendent power, flowing through Luo Hou’s limbs and hundred meridians, finally converging in his dantian.
Bang!
As if heaven and earth had been opened up.
Luo Hou’s dantian began to boil, rolling like tides, carrying an unstoppable momentum, fiercely crashing against the demigod realm bottleneck.
Crack!
With a loud noise.
The demigod realm bottleneck shattered in response.
During this process, energy continuously leaked from Luo Hou’s body, transforming into two ferocious demonic dragons and phoenixes, exuding a terrifying aura, shattering the world of ice and snow.
After the world shattered, Luo Hou also disappeared without a trace.
Only the ancient stele was left.
Hovering in space.
And an inaudible mechanical sound to all beings.
"Detected a Tianming person, transmitting information..."
Whoosh!
About half a quarter of an hour later.
A white light shot out from the stele, directly penetrating the sealed endless universe, then passing through the branch of the Ancient River Region of the River of Time, and finally disappearing into the River of Time.
"Time Oracle?"
"Damn it, the Time Oracle has appeared again, another nation of destiny is being born..."
"Catastrophe! Another catastrophe is upon us!"
A voice filled with panic emerged from the River of Time, containing supreme divine power, stirring countless layers of the Power of Time, like a calm water surface being swept by a billion-level hurricane, raising monstrous waves.
Through the boiling Power of Time, one could see ancient beings, faces filled with fear and unease.
Three days later.
Qin Wudao returned to the grand world of the Nine Provinces.
As soon as he entered the imperial palace, he saw Jade Snow Gentleman coming out with a big belly to greet him, which reminded him of his affair with Xiao Qi, causing him to feel somewhat embarrassed.
"Sorry!"
Qin Wudao walked up to Jade Snow Gentleman, bowed his head, and said.
"Your Majesty, you should give Xiao Qi a title!"
Jade Snow Gentleman revealed a faint smile on his face and said seriously.
A title!
Qin Wudao was taken aback.
"I already know about Xiao Qi’s feelings for Your Majesty, if Xiao Qi hadn’t sacrificed herself, I’m willing to become good sisters with her, so that in the harem, I would have a companion!"
"The kindness Your Majesty shows me, I have recorded in my heart!"
Jade Snow Gentleman took Qin Wudao’s hand, walking along the corridor, feeling utterly content in his heart.
Looking upon the endless universe, even in the River of Time, how many emperors have only one consort?
"Good, good, good!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Wudao felt relieved.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of Jade Snow Gentleman, but after being together for a millennium, it’s best to discuss things with the other party.
The two walked all the way back to the Phoenix Ritual Palace.
After entering the room, Jade Snow Gentleman sat on a chair, gently stroking his belly, and asked, "Your Majesty, have you thought of a name for your son or daughter?"
"Of course, I have!"
Qin Wudao said with a smile, "I have already thought about it, if it’s a boy, he will be called Qin Qian, and if it’s a girl, she will be called Qin Xin!"
"Qin Qian!"
"Qin Xin!"
Jade Snow Gentleman mouthed the names, covering his mouth with a smile, "Qian, masculine, signifies heaven, the first trigram in the Bagua, it seems Your Majesty desires a boy more!"
Qin Wudao waved his hand and said, "Whether it’s a boy or a girl, I like them both!"
Unlike other emperors, he did not insist on a boy to inherit the throne.
He did not object to a girl becoming the ruler.
After all, by then, he would be invincible.
As long as the throne of the Qin Dynasty is held by someone of Qin bloodline, he doesn’t mind.
After many years, he would retire with a group of old ministers, traveling the landscapes, and would return and save the day when danger arose.
After spending more than an hour in the Phoenix Ritual Palace, Qin Wudao left the gentle abode and returned to the imperial study room.
As soon as he stepped into the imperial study room.
A system prompt sounded in his mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully occupying the Taoist World, signing reward Xunzi, would you like to summon?"
Xunzi!
The Xunzi who mastered the Hundred Schools of Thought?
A gleam flashed in Qin Wudao’s eyes, as phrases of famous quotes and sayings from his previous life came to mind.
Therefore, without accumulating small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles; without accumulating small streams, one cannot form rivers and seas.
Water can carry a boat, it can also capsize it.
The path is near, but without walking, you cannot reach it. The task is small, but without doing it, it cannot be completed.
