Chapter 963: Burdens of the Past

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the base of Fallen Immortal Mountain, smoke could be seen rising into the air as everyone sat around the hotpots, picking up the food happily as they ate away.

Xiao Chengfeng picked up a piece of dragon meat and twirled it around the pot to be cooked before sending it into his mouth. He suddenly felt his mouth being filled with the fragrance. After that, he drank a mouthful of wine and shut his eyes in bliss.

“Ah…” He let out a sigh of happiness. After that, he felt fiery hot energy circulating in his chest.

Unending Wisdom circulated Xiao Cehngfeng, pushing his realm to the highest.

His aura was rapidly strengthening.

!!

Even though he was just a step away from becoming a supreme being, that step was incredibly high. It was practically impossible to reach. It looked like he was just one step away, but he was ninety-nine levels away.

At that moment, he quickly stepped on the first level, the third, the fourth…

Buzz!

The food and wine he put into his mouth turned into the foundations for him, pushing him to higher levels. He still had a bundle of undying fire in his stomach, constantly giving out energy.

The cultivators around them all felt Xiao Chengfeng’s state, and let out looks of surprise.

Cultivator Junjun’s eyes turned serious, “Supreme being, Xiao Chengfeng is finally going to break through!”

“Will he succeed? The world lacks Wisdom, and the road to a supreme being has been cut off. It seems practically impossible. Are new supreme beings still possible?” Yang Jian raised an eyebrow in uncertainty.

He could feel that Xiao Chengfeng’s aura was very unstable. It felt like it soared, but after that, it was pushed down. It was being forced back by the limits of the world.

It was just like Little Fox back then, falling back after breaking through to become a supreme being. If the expert did not help, she would not have been able to get through.

“It’s different here. This is where the expert is at!” The drunkard let out a smile as he said meaningfully.

The strong man said, “That’s right. Even though Wisdom is lacking, this place is different. This is where Wisdom itself is. It’s the origin of Wisdom. Anywhere the expert is at, there are no limits!”

As if to prove what they said, Xiao Chengfeng’s aura immediately soared to the peak, not stopping at all!

A supreme being!

Another supreme being was born!

All of them cultivator’s felt it in their hearts. They felt as if the world itself changed. There should have been countless images being formed, but they were automatically suppressed by the presence of the expert.

Xiao Chengfeng suddenly opened his eyes. He never expected that his most important step was crossed with a hotpot. However, he was not surprised at all.

After all, the meal included the Dao-Devouring Dragon, a being at the peak of supreme beings. They also had the wine and food that was prepared by the expert. Even a wild pig would immediately become a saint after eating it. Breaking through his last bottleneck was no problem at all.

Xiao Chengfeng had an incredibly pleased smile on his face. If the expert was not there, he would have laughed out loud at that moment. No one knew how much effort it took for him to resist the urge.

“He managed to become a supreme being?!” Yang Jian’s three eyes all stared at Xiao Chengfeng in envy at admiration.

He immediately went silent as he completely forgot about his image as he frantically stuffed himself with food and wine. The banquet this time was a chance that the expert granted them. It would be down to them if they managed to break through!

Everyone else seemed to notice that as well. The sounds of conversation suddenly lowered as all of them started to wolf down their meals.

Nanan and the others were no exception. After all, they were all stuck at the bottleneck to becoming a supreme beings. They could not miss out on this chance!

Buzz!

Buzz!

Buzz!

The air in that area started to shake.

Everyone had immense amounts of energy in their body. Their aura rose like massive waves. Only Fallen Immortal Mountain would have been able to withstand it. If it were anyone else, the state they were in would probably have caused the world to split apart!

It was incredibly difficult to become a supreme being. Those that were below that level rapidly broke through!

Yao Mengji, Gu Changqing, Gu Yan, Black, and White… They kept on leveling up. Their spiritual energy threatened to blow up their bodies. Their heads were completely blank as they were stunned by their enlightenment. Their skills went from the Golden Immortal realm to the first step of a Wisdom Elite!

They were so touched they almost cried.

The expert blessed his old friends. He took such good care of them!

Facing the chaos of the realm, they might have known the expert for a long time, but they never had enough time to improve themselves. They were not even ants in the face of the great calamity. After that meal, they finally had the power to protect themselves a bit.

In the end, other than Xiao Chengfeng, Yang Jian, Nanan, Dragin, Shi Tuqin, and Qin Manyun all managed to become supreme beings. They managed to break through that wall because all of them had amazing foundations. Cultivator Junjun and the others were just a bit lacking. They were so sad that they turned their sorrow into appetites as they frantically continued eating.

Li Nianfan, Daji, and Fire Phoenix sat together as they looked at everyone frantically eating with a smile on their faces. To Li Nianfan, it was the biggest compliment.

Xiao Chengfeng raised his cup high and said, “Thank you for the meal, Lord Saint. Let us all offer him a toast.”

Immediately, everyone put down their chopstick and raised their wine, “Thank you, Lord Said.”

“You’re all too kind. I should be the one thanking you. You protected the peace of the world, while all I can do is make you all a meal,” Li Nianfan said sincerely.

The peaceful life he had was all thanks to all of them carrying the burden.

He knew very well that they were the ones responsible for his peaceful life. Furthermore, he noticed how sinister the world seemed lately. Nanan and Dragin were busy and worried, so it was nothing good. It was thanks to all of them fighting on the frontlines that he even managed to have this meal.

He could not fight against evil, so all he could do was make good food for these heroes.

Yang Jian immediately assured him with confidence, “Lord Saint, there’s no need to say that. We’re just doing what we should do. Don’t worry, we’ll protect this world!”

The drunkard gulped down some wine as he raised his voice, “That’s right. Even if calamity descends, I’ll suppress the darkness as long as I’m alive. I’ll never betray my Dao Heart!”

“Xiao Chengfeng’s sword exists to slay evil! It’s nothing so noble, I just find entertainment in it!” Xiao Chengfeng laughed as he drank.

Cultivator Junjun and the others said, “We’re the same.”

Their eyes were incredibly firm as they made their resolve.

This time, Li Nianfan was touched. These cultivators were worthy of being called deities. He was quite lucky that all the cultivators he met along the way were of high moral characters.
