A Failure’s hopeful Journey - Chapter 329: Departure.
You Xi Wang was taught a hard lesson by his sister for acting like a maniac. Though later the girl just hugged him and broke into tears. She said, “You better not slow down. I will catch up to you, understand?”
The boy smiled and said, “Yes, you better do, for you know, I do weird stuff when left alone.”
You Zhichi smiled and the rest of the people began to congratulate him for getting through the tribulation. The girls expressed their love with a passionate kiss. You Zhichi had reached the bottleneck of her cultivation realm and this incident had given her some inspiration. So she went into a retreat.
Celestia and Lily showed You Xi Wang his video and they asked if they can share it with the people when they go back home. After some thought the boy said, they can show it only to the people in the family and not on social media.
The two girls agreed to his instructions and they all went back to the campsite. You Xi Wang needed to rest, he may have been rejuvenated but his mind was still tired. Stress cannot be erased by the healing bestowed by the heavens.
If he had no breath left inside him when the crimson bolt hit his body, then the charred body would have to be brought back home for a funeral. Thankfully he managed to cling on to life, the system was the one who saved him. As the crimson lightning bolt entered his body, it started to destroy everything, from organs to spiritual points and meridians.
The system used the soul force to hide itself. The system was like a blob of spiritual smog in his soul sea. This blob did not wait for the crimson lightning to get to it, and using You Xi Wang’s soul force it moved to the heart. The system had earlier claimed to be an entity that was above all the laws and rules of the heavens.
However, when it was in this world the laws of the world did have some effect on it. After it hid from the heavenly lightning, coursing through You Xi Wang’s body, it found You Zhichi had already arrived next to her brother. It was the system that asked, her to stop. Then infusing the soul force in You Xi Wang’s heart, eased some of his pain.
This moment You Xi Wang was about to let out his last breath but the system said, “Hold on. Your sister will kill herself if you did not hold on.”
The fading consciousness of You Xi Wang finally became alert. That was when the heavenly radiance washed over him. The group has come back to the campsite and found that the people did not bother with them. They greeted You Xi Wang with a smile and said a simple congratulations, and then back to cultivation.
The people here were all almost at the peak of the primal soul realm. They did not slack and they did not give in to the harshness of the protocol they have chosen. The strengths have risen so much in the past month that a single squad from this big group can deal with the demon prince and make him flee in fright.
That said, You Xi Wang came to the barracks that were set on fire by his two disciples. You Zhichi punished them with some chores before going into seclusion. She used the same cave as You XI Wang did. Tiberius was set to guard the place.
Maya had also gone through a transformation that came as a surprise to everyone. She had become a human. Yes, the people did not know how to react when they saw a little girl with silver hair on her head, but when they saw two wolf ears and her blue eyes with vertical slits, they realized that it was Maya.
The crescent moon on her forehead became smaller as if made of rogue. She fainted after coming close to You Xi Wang’s body. The weapons were all same. The inferior spirits evolved to higher-level ones, and the spear and sword, You Xi Wang used, had become superior spirits.
The golden dragon spirit of the spear had taken a form of a man with golden armored man. His eyes were sparkling with the flashes of lightning. As for th Purgatory, the dark phoenix had transformed into a woman, she had a black dress over her body and revealed her fair jade-like flesh, tempting the people. Her hair was left loose. Just her eyes were not fitting in with the appearance.
Her red eyes flickered with amber hidden inside them. She gave the people a dangerous vibe. You Xi Wang had decided to deal with all these things after he reaches the barracks. However, before he could deal with anything, he fell on the bed, unconscious.
The people around him became worried, but Gena told them that he was fatigued and the exhaustion had made him fall asleep. After putting the loli Maya in another room they left the two people and the weapons alone.
They all knew that You Xi Wang needed to rest. The people left and the boy rested in his room. It took him three days to resume his normal operation. He would eat and sleep and repeat. That was it for the three days.
Maya woke up the third day. Her body was equal to a girl of ten years. She spoke in a silky voice, “Brother Xi Wang.”
You Xi Wang smiled and patted her head, he said, “Welcome, Maya.”
The girl smiled and said, “Thank you, brother. I would have stayed a beast if not for your blessings.”
The boy said, “What are you talking about? If not for you taking on the six streaks from the eight, I would not have survived at all. So, we both got each other’s back.”
Maya smiled but then she frowned, “It is weird without a tail.”
You Xi Wang was surprised and then he laughed out loud. He said, “Let us go out.”
Maya hesitated and asked, “Can I hide in your shadow? I will go out slowly? The people all glare at me, I feel uncomfortable.”
“Okay, take things at your own pace.” said, You Xi Wang. Maya entered his shadow as she used to in the past, and the boy took out his weapons from the space ring. The golden dragon spear and Purgatory were floating beside each other.
He asked, “Will you two not come out?” in a soft voice.
The two spirits materialized in front of him. The warrior in the golden armor knelt on the ground while the lady in black came and directly sat in You Xi Wang’s lap. The boy smiled and said, “What should I call you two?”
The man in the armor replied in a deep voice, “Long Ling.”
You Xi Wang nodded, and said, “Good name. What about you?” he turned his gaze to the lady sitting in his lap. The lady replied, “My name is Feather.”
The young man nodded and lightly patted on her bouncy butt, “You better not act like this in the future. My weapon spirits must have a level of decorum. Okay/”
Feather stood up from the lap and her appearance turned into an elegant lady. She bowed and nodded, “I have seen the lord.”
You Xi Wang nodded and said, “Good, now you two can rest, I will call upon you when I need.”
The two people nodded and turned back into spirit energy as they blended with the weapons and vanished from the place. You Xi Wang came out of the phantom squad’s barrack and found that the people were still immersed in practices respectively.
He found someone when he found that none of his friends were out. They all seemed to be in seclusion, he did not bother with them and began to guide those who were missing something when it came to martial arts or formations science. The people in the camp all were happy to receive guidance from their leader.
It took two months for You Zhichi to completely advance to the nirvana rebirth first realm. As for all the others, They took one more month to complete the steps. They did all reached this realm with the perfect physique. Now the further realm will not be a problem for them.
You Xi Wang declared that it was time they returned home and participated in the ancestral examination. The people agreed, they were all aware that given their talent it will take a long time for them to reach the nirvana rebirth realm. So they did not bother waiting and after reaching the peak of the primal soul realm they all came back to the garden of you family mansion just like they had gone.
