The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 549: The Corpse of the Child of the Heavenly Dao!

Swoosh!

Ling Feng moved very fast, but no matter how he advanced, all he could see before him was an endless expanse of white. It seemed as if he had walked very far, yet at the same time, it felt as though he had not moved an inch.

"This is truly an endless path."

Ling Feng had no idea how long he had been walking. In this world of white, he had completely lost his sense of time.

However, the more it happened, the more it stimulated the resilience in his bones.

"I already saw through the Cycle of Reincarnation[1]. What's so scary about this so-called Endless Path?"

Ling Feng clenched his fists and stopped advancing. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the ground.

He recalled Jin Zhulong's words: no matter how far one walked, it would only take half a day to return.

Perhaps this Endless Path was not a real path in the literal sense but a journey of the mind.

A journey of inner cultivation!

"Oh? You grasped the essence of the Endless Path so quickly? As expected of the child of the Heavenly Dao. You were indeed born with divine favor!"

In a chaotic space, a figure emanating a faint golden light muttered to himself.

His form had already shrunk to the appearance of an ordinary elder, but if Ling Feng were here, he would instantly sense his aura. It was the very ancestor of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao clan, Kong!

Kong's eyes were slightly closed, but every movement of Ling Feng was within his perception.

He even knew that Ling Feng possessed the Blood of the Emperor. For this reason alone, Kong was far from an ordinary demon ruler expert!

Because even the peerless powerhouse, Jiang Xuanwu from a thousand years ago, had not seen through Ling Feng's Blood of the Emperor with his own ability. Instead, it was the Blood of the Emperor within Ling Feng that activated the Xuanwu blood's time travelling ability. (Refer to Chapter 378: A Thousand Years Ago?)

In other words, in a sense, this ancestor of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao clan named Kong was even more powerful than Jiang Xuanwu.

"However, comprehending the reverse flow of time and entering the Ancient Cave of Time is not something ordinary people can do. Let me see if everyone with the Blood of the Emperor is so extraordinary!"

Kong smiled faintly and then fell silent again. When he completely closed his eyes, his aura completely vanished as if he truly became nothingness—became Kong[2]!

Ling Feng did not know that Kong was watching him, but as he completely quieted down, he discovered a peculiarity in this space.

"The time here..."

Ling Feng's eyes twitched because he found that on this endless path, there was a unique space-time fluctuation similar to the one that appeared when he activated the Xuanwu blood on the Xuanwu Wall and traveled back a thousand years.

Could it be that this Endless Path was a test of time?

Ling Feng was secretly astonished because the space-time fluctuations here were very unique, seemingly following some kind of rule.

"Ancient Cave of Time..."

Ling Feng murmured, "Time..."

As time slowly passed, Ling Feng sat cross-legged on the ground, completely motionless.

If he had opened his eyes, he might have seen massive space-time cracks forming around him, as if they wanted to devour him.

However, in an instant, those cracks quickly healed. They were dispersed by the power of space-time.

New space-time constantly appeared, only to be annihilated by the space-time.

Among this cycle of annihilation and rebirth, the only constant was the Ancient Cave of Time.

Suddenly, Ling Feng opened his eyes, a slight smile forming at the corners of his mouth. He took a step forward, and in that moment, all the clouds and fog, and even the path beneath his feet, disappeared.

Beneath his feet, the ground turned into solid rock. Before him lay a vast and empty ancient cave.

"So quick?"

Kong was slightly surprised. The last person who came here didn't achieve such speed.

"Junior Ling Feng greets senior. May I request you to show yourself?"

Ling Feng did not act recklessly. Instead, he bowed at the entrance of the cave.

In the presence of this ancestor, there was no need for deception, as he knew he couldn't hide anything from him.

"How did you see through it?" Kong asked calmly.

"Actually, all the clouds and paths were just imagined by those who stepped onto the endless path. I was merely circling around the cave entrance, wasn't I?

"I was walking in space-time, so no matter how far I walked, it was the space-time that moved. When I stopped the space-time, I stopped as well."

Ling Feng smiled faintly. Due to his previous experience with time travel, he had already gained some understanding of space-time power, so this time he had an advantage.

Otherwise, he would not have comprehended this so quickly.

"To comprehend a trace of the space-time power at such a young age... As expected of the child of the Heavenly Dao! You’re truly blessed by the heavens!"

Kong laughed loudly, and a force of suction pulled Ling Feng directly inside the cave.

Ling Feng had no room to resist. Before he knew it, he was inside the cave sitting cross-legged on the ground facing a very emaciated elder.

The elder sat cross-legged in the center of the cave, and his body seemed completely lifeless.

"Senior, you..." Ling Feng was extremely shocked. He couldn't sense any signs of life from that body. There was no body temperature, heartbeat, sign of breathing, or even a soul in it!

"Sorry, that is not me!"

With a loud laugh, a mass of golden light condensed in the void, eventually forming a very tall middle-aged man who looked almost indistinguishable from a human.

If there was any difference, it was his eyes, which seemed to be coated with a layer of gold. When he blinked, golden light flashed, making it hard to look directly at him.

Ling Feng's eyes twitched. Could someone who had existed for so long be so young?

"Senior, how do you know about the Blood of the Emperor in my body?" Ling Feng swallowed hard and asked slowly.

"Originally, the Blood of the Emperor couldn't be seen through." Kong naturally sat beside the shriveled body, pointed at it, and said calmly, "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to see the Blood of the Emperor in you."

"Him...?" Ling Feng's eyes twitched wildly. "Is he... still alive?"

"Alive?" Kong shook his head. "It's impossible for him to be alive. He wouldn't be human if he was still alive after having his soul source annihilated."

"Who is he?" Ling Feng took a deep breath, having a vague premonition.

"There aren't many surviving children of the Heavenly Dao. If I'm not mistaken, he should be an ancestor of yours. Anyway, you can figure out the exact relationship."

Kong's expression was very casual, and he even crossed his legs which was completely unlike a senior, shattering Ling Feng's preconceived notions of a reclusive master.

"Who exactly are you?"

Ling Feng's eyes twitched wildly. In the Ancient Cave of Time, there was someone with the Blood of the Emperor like him! No, to be precise, it was the corpse of a predecessor of his!

What exactly did the so-called children of the Heavenly Dao bear? Why was his predecessor’s soul source annihilated, ultimately leading to him dying in the Ancient Cave of Time?
