Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1345: Mo Shentian’s Doubt

Upon arrival at the Moon Illusion Domain, Zhang Fei took Jiu Moze out of the Yin-Yang Space, and he also summoned Luo Yunxiao out of the training space because her Heaven-Earth Reversal Physique would be useful in dealing with his lightning tribulations.

”Husband, I find this strange because you haven’t faced your lightning tribulations after you broke through to the 2-Sun Celestial Lord Realm.” Luo Yunxiao spoke.

”I also feel strange about that.” Zhang Fei agreed with Luo Yunxiao. ”I broke through to that stage when I was in the process of my evolution, but my lightning tribulations didn’t appear when I went to the Soul-Devouring Demon Domain.”

Luo Yunxiao looked at Feng Yao. ”Do you know anything about this matter?”

”No.” Feng Yao looked up to the sky. ”I don’t understand why the heavens didn’t send down his lightning tribulations after Zhang Fei broke through to that stage, but I have a guess about it.”

”What’s your guess?” Both Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao asked.

”The heavens have been trying to kill you from the time you broke through to the Earth Realm until you broke through to the Five Celestial Realms, but all their efforts have always ended in vain.” Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao nodded to Feng Yao, who immediately continued. ”If my guess is correct, the heavens are deliberately holding back your lightning tribulations, and they probably intend to accumulate them from all your subsequent breakthroughs and strike them down all at once.”

Luo Yunxiao frowned at that. ”If that’s true, his lightning tribulations will be too powerful when the heavens bring them down all at once, and he probably won’t be able to face them.”

”Yes.” Feng Yao nodded. ”Zhang Fei once faced multiple lightning tribulations simultaneously, but the heavens were unable to kill him. He has grown rapidly since that day, and he has also mastered many body cultivation techniques. The heavens are always watching over us, and they are aware of his current body strength. They are aware that a single lightning tribulation will not be enough to kill him, so they deliberately delayed his lightning tribulations to attack him all at once after his lightning tribulations had accumulated a lot.”

”Will he be able to face such powerful lightning tribulations?”

”No.” Feng Yao looked at Luo Yunxiao. ”Back then, Zhang Fei was able to face multiple lightning tribulations at once because his cultivation was still at the Ten Mortal Realms, and his body was much stronger than that of other cultivators at that level. However, he has now reached the Five Celestial Realms, and the power of lightning tribulations at each stage in the Five Celestial Realms is much more powerful. If the heavens truly intend to accumulate his lightning tribulations with each of his breakthroughs, he will face the deadliest attack he has ever faced in the future.”

Luo Yunxiao let out a heavy sigh and looked at Zhang Fei. ”Husband.”

”I know how you feel, Yunxiao.” Zhang Fei looked up at the sky. ”Regardless of what happens, I have no choice but to face what comes my way. I don’t know if I can withstand such a powerful strike, but I won’t let the heavens do as they please, and I will face their wrath with my full strength.”

”Why are you so worried about that?” Luo Yunxiao returned her gaze to Feng Yao. ”Zhang Fei will not be able to face such a powerful strike with his current strength, but his path is still long ahead, and he will continue to become strong. Moreover, he has you by his side, and your Heaven-Earth Reversal Physique is truly overpowered, so I’m sure you can help him deal with it. If you have any doubts about that, you can ask Hu Tianlang, and he will enlighten you about the true abilities of your special physique.”

”I’ll meet Hu Tianlang in his soul world after this.” Luo Yunxiao suddenly had an idea. ”What if he doesn’t force himself to break through to the Celestial Emperor Realm and stops at the 3-Sun Celestial King Realm? After all, breaking through from the Celestial King Realm to the Celestial Emperor Realm will take a much longer time, right? Even with my sisters’ help, I am sure he won’t be able to break through in the next ten years unless he absorbs other people’s cultivation again. This way, he has a lot of time to strengthen himself, especially his body cultivation level.”

”I think that’s the best solution.” Feng Yao nodded in agreement. ”Since I’ve been monitoring Zhang Fei all this time, I can say for certain that he’ll need at least five years to break through to the 3-Sun Celestial Lord Realm, even with all of you helping him. If he takes the normal path, he will need a minimum of ten years to break through to the Celestial King Realm from that stage, and he will need several decades to break through to the Celestial Emperor Realm.”

Zhang Fei smiled bitterly when he heard that, especially since breaking through each stage of the Five Celestial Realms took a very long time. He sighed softly, squatted beside Jiu Moze, and touched his chest. ”Everything that’s destined to happen will eventually happen someday, so there’s no point in dwelling on this matter now. I just need to keep improving myself, and I’ll face whatever comes my way.”

”Yes.” Both Feng Yao and Luo Yunxiao nodded at him. ”Absorb Jiu Moze’s cultivation now, and you can stop once your cultivation breaks through to the 3-Sun Celestial King Realm. However, you must do it gradually and stop after each breakthrough, and we will see what the heavens will do to you.”

”Alright.” Zhang Fei took a deep breath and began to absorb Jiu Moze’s cultivation, but he did not do it hastily and observed the changes in the sky.

”Hmm?” Hu Tianlang’s bloodlust soul squinted his eyes as he sensed the change in Zhang Fei [4]’s cultivation. ”You absorbed someone else’s cultivation, huh?”

”Yes.” Zhang Fei [4] gave a light nod. ”My real body is absorbing Jiu Moze’s cultivation and demon power now.”

”You’re such a crazy kid.” Hu Tianlang’s bloodlust soul shook his head. ”If other cultivators tried to use the same method as you to increase their cultivation, they would definitely become cripples, and at worst, the heavens would sentence them to death.”

”Haha.” Zhang Fei [4] laughed softly. ”Old fox, you’re separated from your other souls, so you don’t know everything I’ve been through before I reached this level. The heavens have tried to kill me numerous times, but they always failed; if they had succeeded, I wouldn’t be here sitting in front of you now. Since they want to kill me, it doesn’t matter if I use such a method to improve my cultivation, and I will prepare myself better to face their wrath.”

Hu Tianlang’s bloodlust soul released a heavy sigh after hearing that. ”If I think about it again, the heavens want to kill you not only because you have killed too many, but also because of your multiple identities. Even though my original self had predicted your birth, your birth was still an anomaly because you had multiple identities.”

”I was born as an ordinary human, okay?” Zhang Fei [4] replied with a helpless sigh. ”I never expected to have multiple identities, and all of this happened because of the young girl who accidentally killed me back then.”

Hu Tianlang’s bloodlust soul nodded at Zhang Fei [4]. ”Whatever the reason, you were destined to have multiple identities, and that young girl was destined to turn you into who you are now.”

”Destiny, huh?” Zhang Fei [4] clenched both his fists. ”I am a cultivator, and I cultivate to defy the heavens and destiny. I know I am still weak and not comparable to your original self, but I will not let anyone determine my destiny. My destiny is mine, and I will determine it myself. If the heavens or anyone else tries to control my destiny, I will defy them, and I will destroy them when I become truly powerful in the future.”

”Hahaha!” Hu Tianlang’s bloodlust soul laughed heartily after hearing that. ”Such an arrogant kid! However, I’m thrilled to hear that; it proves that you are worthy of being the successor of my original self. My original self is the strongest; not even the primordial genesis beast and the primordial nihility beast dare to fight him. Once you evolve into the ten tails and inherit his true strength, you will become unstoppable, and you will be able to defy the heavens at that time.”

Zhang Fei [4] smiled faintly. ”Whatever the result is, let’s see in the future.”

In the Celestial Demon Domain, Mo Shentian and Mo Zainan seriously observed the fake Zhang Fei on the floor.

Since they had never met Zhang Fei before, and Jia Zizhen had never told them about him, they couldn’t confirm whether the corpse in front of them was the real him or not.

”What do you think about this, husband?” Mo Zainan asked. ”Everything about this corpse is real, but I have little doubt that it’s the real Zhang Fei.”

Mo Shentian nodded in agreement with her. ”Jia Zizhen said that the ten-tailed fox was the strongest living being, so I found it hard to believe that his heir would be this weak; even our children could kill him so easily. Unfortunately, he is dead now, and we can’t prove whether he is the real one or not.”
