Chapter 873: How Could It Be The New World

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Sweet and delicious…”

“Top grade fruit?!”

The blue robe on Fang Zhengzhi flew as a breeze blew by, producing a soft sound that felt like a spring breeze in the starry night sky.

However, everyone was frozen.

Be it Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, Qian Yu or Yan Yin, everyone froze on their spots.

The air was silent.

Even Monster Emperor Baizhi froze and could not react.

The sages and the disciples felt as though they had been hit by stones.

They felt a little dizzy and could see stars.

After a long while, Mo Shanshi finally reacted and spoke as though he had seen a monster, “He ate… ate it?! This brat ate the fruit of the Tree of God?!”

Following Mo Shanshi’s voice, the Heaven Zen Mountain also exploded in commotion.

“This brat really ate it!”

“The fruit of Tree of God… He swallowed it in one mouth?”

“How could he be not scared to die? Why was he so daring? How did he get the guts to eat the fruit of the Tree of God?”

Nobody could understand.

After all, Fang Zhengzhi’s actions would be understandable if he had not come into contact with the fruit of the Tree of God previously. However, nobody figured out why he still dared to eat the fruit after suffering from the aftereffects of touching it.

However, no matter what, Fang Zhengzhi had already swallowed the golden fruit of the Tree of God and casually touched his stomach.

“No!” At this moment, a voice was heard. It was Nangong Tian. His expression was one of ultimate desperation, as though the world was ending and he no longer had the will to live.

After all, Nangong Tian would not bother about the aftereffects of consuming the fruit of the Tree of God.

However, he was concerned about the opening of Door of the Realm of God!

Yet, after the golden fruit was swallowed by Fang Zhengzhi, how could the Door of the Realm of God be opened? Without any keys, it was impossible to open the Door of the Realm of God.

Nangong Tian was in despair. He really wanted to break through the Monster Kings and dig out the fruit of the Tree of God from Fang Zhengzhi’s stomach.

However, he clearly could not…

“Shameless thief…” Chi Guyan’s lips moved. Although she had not personally fought with Monster Emperor Baizhi, she had already seen her powers.

The level of danger of this battle had way surpassed her expectations. She wanted to fight alongside with Fang Zhengzhi but she was severely injured. Even after a short recuperation, she could not move at all.

At this moment, she saw Fang Zhengzhi winking at her with a bright smile on his face.

“This shameless thief, could it be…” Chi Guyan was shocked. Before she could think any further, she saw Fang Zhengzhi pouncing for the other two fruits of the Tree of God.

“Still eating?!”

“Pouncing forward again?!”

Everyone reacted this way when they saw Fang Zhengzhi move. It made them even more shocked.

Was the fruit of the Tree of God really meant to be eaten?

As they were thinking about that question, a huge fox tail blocked Fang Zhengzhi and whipped at his back with an extremely fast speed.

“Eh? Preventing me from courting death?” Fang Zhengzhi darted skilfully as he saw the fox tail, meanwhile giving Monster Emperor Baizhi a middle finger.

After all, before he had swallowed the fruit of the Tree of God, Monster Emperor Baizhi was sneering at him and waiting for him to fiddle with it.

However, now…

Monster Emperor Baizhi was clearly anxious.

The more anxious she was, the more certain Fang Zhengzhi was. He was finally lucky! After eating the fruit, he was completely unharmed.

It felt great!

Although he had exaggerated about how tasty the fruit was, the fruit did not taste too bad.

From an objective aspect, the texture of the fruit was pretty good. At least it was slightly cool and fresh.

Because it tasted pretty good, Fang Zhengzhi decided that he was in for a penny in for a pound and was ready to swallow the other two fruits too.

“Baizhi, I am your opponent!” Qian Yu finally reacted and attacked without hesitation.

Besides Qian Yu, Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi also reacted. Although Fang Zhengzhi’s actions had completely stunned them and made them feel as though they were slapped on the face, they did not bother too much about it.

After all, they had asked for the slap.

“This brat’s behaviour is really bizarre. However, I am really impressed!” Mo Shanshi had calmed himself down and was about to whack his black giant hammer towards Monster Emperor Baizhi.

No matter what aftereffects there were, if Fang Zhengzhi was able to finish eating all the three fruits of the Tree of God, he would have helped to resolve the problem.

Without the fruits of Tree of God…

They would not need to fight any further!

Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, Qian Yu and Yan Yin all decided to attack again, fighting for time and room for Fang Zhengzhi.

As they were waiting for Fang Zhengzhi to swallow the other two fruits, they realised Fang Zhengzhi, who had been smiling brightly, suddenly stopped moving.

“Stopped moving?!”

“What is he up to again?”

“Does he not understand how difficult it is for us?”

The four of them stared at Fang Zhengzhi in confusion. Then, they realized that not only did Fang Zhengzhi stop moving his body, his facial expression also froze. He looked as though he was a statue.

“…”

“…”

How could it be?

When you feel that someone is hopeless, he miraculously tells you that he can and is extremely able.

Yet, when you start putting all your hopes on him, you realize that he suddenly became a block of “wood”.

“Don’t tell me this brat is dead?” Looking at how Fang Zhengzhi was not moving, Mo Shanshi was suspicious.

After all, he had swallowed the fruit of the Tree of God.

Boom! After Mo Shanshi said that sentence, a loud explosive sound came from Fang Zhengzhi, Then, Fang Zhengzhi suddenly exploded into countless beams of golden light, as though a huge surge of energy dashed out of his body.

Huff! Almost instantaneously, Fang Zhengzhi’s body radiated with gold light and a burning sensation could be felt radiating from his body as though it was on fire.

“What’s going on?”

“Exploded!”

“So it really can’t be eaten?!”

All of the disciples’ expressions changed completely when they saw Fang Zhengzhi exploded into a gold fireball. They did not know whether to feel happy or sad.

“Hahaha, Fang Zhengzhi? Hahaha” Monster Emperor Baizhi laughed happily, her dark green eyes glowing with light.

As Monster Emperor Baizhi laughed, Fang Zhengzhi’s body slowly leaned forward and hit a branch of the Tree of God.

Dong!

“Shameless thief!” Chi Guyan’s voice echoed in the air. However, Fang Zhengzhi did not seem to hear it. His body was still burning in golden flames.



Carrying autumn vibes, a boat was sailing in the smooth lake.

At this point in time, Fang Zhengzhi only wanted to curse at the old nine-tailed fox.

If the world had only one mirror, he wanted that mirror to be a monster-revealing mirror. If there were ten mirrors, all of them should also be monster-revealing mirrors.

That was how he felt at that point in time…

He cursed, “Monster-revealing… mirror!”

It hurt, it hurt like hell!

Fang Zhengzhi did not know how painful it was for a woman during labor. However, he could feel his body exploding.

After reaching his stomach, the fruit of the God of Tree that was initially cool suddenly radiated a wave of intense heat as though it was ignited.

At that instant, Fang Zhengzhi knew he was dead.

This was precisely the ancient saying, he who touches pitch shall be defiled.

The extreme pain did not allow Fang Zhengzhi to think straight. Immediately, he blacked out and could no longer feel anything.

He did not know where he was or whether he was dead. He went into a daze.

Moreover, he was completely clueless about how long he remained in that state. It felt like a blink of an eye but also felt as though thousands of years had passed.

Was he dead?

Or still alive?

“Drip, drip…” The sound of water dripping rang in Fang Zhengzhi’s head. It felt like a fusion between spirit and water.

After a while, the dripping sound changed into the sound of water flowing in a stream. It flowed past his head in a light and lively manner.

Again, after a while, the stream seemed to accumulate and became a wider, deeper river. The water flowed more rapidly…

Buzz!

Suddenly, the completely dark world was lit up by a dim ray of light.

Gradually, the light became brighter and brighter, from white to gold, then from gold to an eye-blinding red.

It was the sun!

However, the sun disappeared quickly and the world fell back into darkness. Yet, the dark skies were lit up with silvery-white spots of light: the stars.

Besides that, there was a bright moon amongst the stars.

The bright moonlight shone on the ground and radiated light, as though thousands of stars were moving continuously on the ground.

“What is this?” Fang Zhengzhi subconsciously widened his eyes. He realized that there was a wide lake that was rippling with waves on the ground.

A fascinating sensation rose from his heart. He had a feeling that the lake was a portrayal of the small dimension in his heart.

Ever since the Battle of the Southern Region, he had almost never entered the small dimension in his heart to check.

That was because, after the Battle of the Southern Region, the small dimension in his heart had collapsed and ceased to exist. In other words, it was empty.

Even though he had gained the Sagely State and reconstructed his body, successfully allowing the pain in his heart to disappear, his small dimension was still empty.

Although the small dimension still existed, there was nothing inside it.

Yet the lake in front of him gave him an extremely familiar feeling, as though it was like the wide lake in his small dimension in the past.

However, the giant tree that was initially in the center of the lake had disappeared.

The lake rippled. Under the silvery white moonlight, the waves made the lake look wider than before.

Then, the moon went down and the sun rose again.

Golden light shone on the lake. As a breeze blew past the lake, circular ripples spread on the surface of the lake.

Sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset.

Fang Zhengzhi could not remember how many cycles of days and nights he had gone through, or how many times he had seen the sunrise and the moonset.

He could only see the lake grow bigger and bigger as the waves rippled continuously.

The waves also became more vigorous. The gentle breeze became strong wind, creating more ripples as it blew on the lake.

Perhaps it was no longer a lake. It was an ocean, a vast ocean!
