Chapter 1070 – Master Eating Meat, Disciple Drinking Soup

An Zheng yelled at the back of the middle-aged man: “Do you know where my friend is?!”

“Got it.”

The middle-aged man said without turning his head, “However, if you want to know their whereabouts, help me get the fishing rod and fish basket back first. I’ll wait for you on the ferry by the river for only three days.”

An Zheng could not move it.

That seemingly ordinary fishing basket and rod seemed to be even heavier than the entire mountain range. In Da Xi era, his cultivation had already reached the great heaven realm, giving An Zheng absolute confidence. He didn’t even have to worry if he had to face Chen Wunuo head on. However, in this era, he discovered that he was actually so insignificant.

Perhaps it was heaven’s will?

He only wanted to send back those ancient people that were dangerous for the entire Central Plains, but he didn’t think that he would send too many of them back. He directly returned to the ancient era that the ancient people thought he was. This period, was precisely when the Immortal palace was at its peak. The immortal palace’s rule was extremely firm, and those true experts were not something that the current An Zheng could challenge.

An Zheng did not know who the weirdo was, but he was sure of one thing, that the weirdo did not have any evil intentions. With his cultivation, if he wanted to harm An Zheng, An Zheng would not even have the chance to retaliate.

The fishing rod looked like ordinary green bamboo, and the fish basket was created by Red Willow. Such a common thing seemed to be an insurmountable natural moat in front of An Zheng.

“I must find the Xiao Liu’er and the rest!”

An Zheng clenched his teeth. It had been a long time since he had gone into horse stance, but now he had picked up all these basic techniques. With a stable horse stance, he circulated his Dantian and used both hands to grab the sides of the fish basket and lift it up.

The fish basket seemed rooted to the ground, unmoving.

The middle-aged man who had already walked far away seemed to mutter to himself in disappointment, “No wonder his physique is exceptional, but his strength is so weak. It’s because he’s a fool.”

An Zheng underestimated you, saying that you’re the fool, and then continued to circulate your energy.

Suddenly, An Zheng thought of something … This fish basket was only a fish basket, not a magic tool. The reason it was so heavy was because of the Cultivation Power left on the fish basket. That waultivation Power that was far beyond the Sky Realm, and it was much purer than An Zheng’s Cultivation Power in terms of quality.

Right now, if An Zheng wanted to lift the fish basket, that would be using strength to break it. However, if his own Cultivation Power was not as good as hers, how could he break it? This was likhree year old boy wrestling with an adult brute. Even if he used a finger to hang a three year old child’s little fist, the child still wouldn’t be able to win.

An Zheng sat cross legged, his hands sticking to the fish basket as he began to sense it. When he began to experience that power, his brain buzzed and a nosebleed instantly flowed down, as if his brain had been struck by a heavy hammer. In that instant, he felt as if he was about to faint.

An Zheng shook his head with all his might and immediately left with his hands. If he used his own Cultivation Power to sense the opponent’s Cultivation Power, he would be directly injured by the power of the counterattack.

What should he do?

An Zheng sat there, deep in thought, with blood running from the corner of his mouth to his lower jaw and dripped onto his clothes.

After around ten minutes, An Zheng placed both of his hands on the fish basket for the second time, and focused all of his attention on the location of his fingers and palm. At this moment, the perception of his palm had become extremely sharp, but because of this, the opponent’s Cultivation Power had attacked him even more fiercely.

Witu sound, An Zheng spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly paled. However, he did not let go this time, but gritted his teeth and continued to perceive the power.

An Zheng felt that both his hands were about to be crippled at any time, and the meridians in his arms were about to break. However, he was able to sense the way the Cultivation Power worked.

Actually, there weren’t that many Cultivation Power s left in the fish basket by the middle-aged man. It was only a small lump of Cultivation Power. However, this small ball of Cultivation Power had formed a whirlpool in the fish basket. It was similar to the chaos before the opening of the universe. It was like the chaos before the opening of the universe.

More and more blood flowed out from the corner of An Zheng’s mouth, and very quickly, his clothes were dyed red with blood.

“There’s always a way. The Xiao Liu’er is still waiting for me.”

An Zheng didn’t want to let go of the fish basket no matter what. As the power continuously rotated and corroded outwards, light crackling sounds continuously rang out in the center of An Zheng’s hands, and it was followed by many cracks. Soon after, the skin on his back started to slowly burst open.

After persisting for four or five minutes, An Zheng felt as if his eyes had suddenly turned black, and then fell down.

The middle-aged man sitting on the small boat on the riverbank shook his head and sighed, “You’re so stupid. Is it even useful if I pick it up?”

However, he did not leave. Although he was disappointed, he still sat there and waited.

Half an hour later, An Zheng woke up. He looked at his hands which were full of scars and without the slightest bit of hesitation, he stuck both his hands onto the fish basket to once again sense the Cultivation Power.

This time, An Zheng endured for around fifteen minutes before being blasted flying. His body was like a broken kite as he flew very far away. His back heavily collided with the weeping willow that was dozens of meters away with his arms crossed. With a bang, the tree shook and leaves fell.

An Zheng supported the tree as he stood up, and with a wow, he spat out another mouthful of blood. He raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth as he stared at the other side of the fish basket.

“I will definitely... We have to find them! ”

He let out a bellow and then walked step by step towards the fish basket. His injuries were too heavy, so his footsteps became extremely heavy. It was as if he was carrying a huge mountain on his back, and his legs seemed to be tied with ten thousand pounds of iron. But An Zheng did not stop. Gritting his teeth, he walked back inside, took a deep breath, and then sat down cross-legged, continuing to perceive the power.

“Stupid.”

The middle-aged man frowned, but the disappointment in his eyes gradually disappeared and was replaced with admiration.

An Zheng stuck both of his hands into the fish basket and thought that the spinning power really didn’t end there. It kept spinning like this all the time, not losing any strength at all. This was completely different from the world of cultivation that An Zheng had come into contact with before. In the Da Xi era, the power of a cultivator would not congeal and dissipate after being released.

However, this power hovered within the fish basket, as if it had created a small separate universe.

There was nothing special about this power, not even metal, wood, water, fire, or earth attributes. This power did not seem to come from the human world, as if it was drawn from the universe.

The spinning Cultivation Power pressed its power down, making the fish basket to be as heavy as Mt. Tai itself.

Half an hour later, An Zheng was once again sent flying, and this time he flew even further. After landing on the ground, his body rolled on the ground for more than ten metres, until his face was covered with dirt and dust. The handsome An Zheng looked to be in a very sorry state.

However, his eyes lit up.

“Hey!”

An Zheng shouted towards the river side: “Um, I don’t need to spend three days with you, I’ll show you right now!”

He crawled up and walked towards the fish basket. After taking three or four steps, he fell onto the ground withump. He was already too weak to even stabilize his body.

“You will die if you do this.”

The middle-aged man shouted from afar. There seemed to be something complicated in his tone.

“I can’t die, I still have to find Xiao Liu’er and the others. Xiao Liu’er can’t do without me, not even them. How can Chen Shaobai live without me? I’m still Fatty’s wet nurse, I have to feed him. ”

An Zheng crawled up once again, and the smile on his face was filled with a kind of fearsome courage and ruthlessness. The middle-aged man in the boat couldn’t help but shake his head slightly when he saw the smile on Ye Zichen’s face.

In all these years, he had never seen a fool like An Zheng who did not care about his life.

He saw An Zheng walk over, step by step. When he arrived next to the fish basket, he was already on the verge of collapse.

“The cycle of power repeats itself. Although I won’t be able to raise it, I can make use of it!”

An Zheng poured his Cultivation Power into the fish basket. Although the power that the middle-aged man left in the fish basket was only a small ball, in comparison, An Zheng’s entire Cultivation Power could not compete with the middle-aged man’s small ball of energy.

However, An Zheng did not want to use force to break through, but instead wanted to use force. He suppressed down all the attributes in his Cultivation Power and removed them. It was only pure power, not Orthodox Pure Yang, not Heavenly Lightning Force.

At this moment, his power was likonic to that power, and when supplemented, it would become even more powerful. An Zheng tried to gently change the direction of his power. The angle of rotation of the power in the fish basket changed, and the fish basket began to tilt slightly.

Seeing this change, the smile on An Zheng’s face became wider and wider, he kept instigating his own strength, but his face kept growing paler and paler. He was already severely injured, but he hadn’t completely recovered yet. He only relied on those pills to forcefully endure the pain. The previously unhealed bones were broken again, and popping sounds continuously rang out from his body. Soon after, blood shot out from his skin.

“Rise!”

An Zheng let out a loud shout, and the fish basket, under the effect of the spinning power inside, slowly flew up by itself.

An Zheng looked at the middle-aged man, and the corner of his mouth had a stubborn smile, “It’s up...”

After saying this, An Zheng fell to the ground withump, and fainted again.

When An Zheng woke up again, the moment he raised his head, he saw the night sky where the star point roamed. It was so clean and clear. The night wind breezed by, blowing on his body and making him feel cool. It was an indescribable feeling of serenity.

The sound of water splashing could be heard. An Zheng turned to look and realized that he was lying on the boat, the middle-aged man was sitting on the bow of the boat. The smell entered An Zheng’s nose, and he immediately felt extremely hungry.

“You’re awake?”

The person turned around and glanced at An Zheng: “You’re the stupidest guy I’ve ever seen, but your perseverance is commendable.”

An Zheng curled his lips: “I raised it.”

“You’re only lifting a fish basket, what are you proud of?”

The man rolled his eyes at An Zheng, then used a ladle to scoop some fish soup to savor it, as if he was satisfied with his cooking skills.

“What right do you have to call me stupid?”

An Zheng asked.

The man sighed. “How did you manage to carry the fish basket?”

An Zheng recounted the process of him sensing the other party’s strength and then using the other party’s strength to spin the fish basket and send it into the air. The person looked at An Zheng with an even more complicated expression: “You aren’t an ordinary fool, it’s just that you’re so stupid that it’s very complicated.”

He pointed at the fish basket, “I just wanted to test your reaction. As long as you don’t use the Cultivation Power, and only rely on your pure physical strength and don’t touch the power that I left in the fish basket, you can easily lift it. But, who would have thought that you would actually dare to touch my power, and even think so much … “Truly, a rare genius amongst idiots.”

He scooped a bowl of fish soup and gave it to An Zheng: “This is for you.”

An Zheng took it and looked at it: “Why is there only soup?”

That person said as if it was a matter of course, “Master eats meat, disciple drinks soup, this is a matter of course.”

He picked uiece of fish and put it into his mouth, then smacked his lips. “It’s delicious.”

An Zheng: “...”

Then, An Zheng reacted: “Who took you as their master?”

The person indifferently said, “Whether or not you recognize me is your problem. Whether or not I accept you is my problem. You … There’s no choice. ”
