289 Get a New Lease on Life
“No—”
The 16th Prince stared in horror at the palace that had been turned into a sea of flas.
Explosions and screams could be heard from all corners of the palace.
He rushed out almost instinctively. The 16th Prince, who was a piece of trash in the eyes of the world and who had yet to activate a Mystical Wheel, flew into the sky like a sword light rushing to the nine heavens!
His body was still weak and he did not have any magical power.
However, there was another kind of power surging inside him, distorting reality and changing his world. It slamd into him with a shocking impact like a surging tide, making him want to put out the terrifying flas and try his best to resolve this sudden crisis!
Yet, the 16th Prince’s expression changed not long after.
The sea of fire was thousands of tis more terrifying than he had imagined. It was not ordinary flas or even created by an ordinary divine power. Instead, it surged with an extrely mighty Yang power!
“It’s the Divine Sun Fire—”
Accompanied by a series of crackling explosions, a blazing sun descended from the nine heavens. It was so fiery that it instantly illuminated the entire capital. At the sa ti, it also reflected the endless haze in people’s hearts.
...
The strength displayed by the 16th Prince was indeed impressive. Anyone who saw it would definitely disagree with the label that he was a useless prince!
However, the attacker was too powerful.
The Divine Sun Fire could incinerate anything and was extrely strong and Yang in essence. Even a little spark could easily burn through a divine being’s magical robe. The fist-sized fla that fell down had directly pierced through the defense of the palace, causing huge explosions one after another.
Thud!
In the blink of an eye, the 16th Prince had already been thrown back by the impact. He was like a teorite that had fallen from the sky and smashed into the ground ruthlessly!
“No—”
He wanted to soar into the sky again, but at this mont, he suddenly saw a despairing scene.
A huge palm crushed down from the sky. Wherever it passed, endless divine light surged. Neat lines of divine chains burned, shaking the space and ti in the world, carrying with them endless flas and brazenly attacking the capital of Lingyun Kingdom!
“With around, don’t even think of being arrogant…”
The Lingyun Emperor charged out. The dignified emperor had the domineering authority of a monarch. He charged into the nine heavens and collided with the owner of the huge hand. However, at this mont, a few more terrifying auras filled the sky and sealed every inch of the world. All of them attacked the Lingyun Emperor at the sa ti!
The Lingyun Emperor was indeed powerful, but every attacker was no weaker than him.
...
Under the joint attack of the four powerful enemies, he was almost instantly severely injured. His blood splashed across the sky and he fell into the depths of the capital like a dropping teor.
“Your Majesty—”
In the capital, countless living beings cried out in shock.
How could their invincible emperor be defeated just like that?
The reality of the situation did not allow them to continue thinking. Four terrifying auras had descended. The four figures were enveloped in divine light, making it impossible to see their true faces.
Their auras were like gods and demons, like the sky and the abyss, suppressing all resistance on the ground.
“Lu Tiancheng, your plan is not bad. If we let you drag it out a little longer, you might really succeed.”
One of the figures sneered and said, “Unfortunately, you don’t know what kind of opponent you’re facing. From the beginning to the end, all your plans and struggles are just a ridiculous show. Now that the show is over, there’s no need for you and your Lingyun Kingdom… to continue existing.”
Kaboom—
“His Majesty my father—”
Amidst the blood and flas that filled the sky, Feng Xia suddenly woke up.
...
The last thing he saw was a lotus pond that had been evaporated by the flas, his white stomach rolling over slowly, and his tail beating weakly.
“Damn it, I’m actually that retarded green carp…”
He turned his head and glanced around before his gaze landed on Zhu Youniang and the others. Feng Xia nodded slightly and let out a long breath.
mories from the dream surfaced in his mind.
After this round, he more or less had an idea about how it worked. “So, although the divine light of the Heavenly Stairway is quite magical, it’s not completely without restrictions. Otherwise, doesn’t it an that everyone who makes a trip up the Heavenly Stairway will be invincible?”
Feng Xia quickly summarized his experiences.
Although it did have the effect of 10 years in a dream, from the looks of it, the contents of the dream were not completely controllable. Instead, there was a predetermined “script.” It was hard to say if one could deviate from the script, but even if it was possible, it would definitely be a difficult task.
Apart from that, those who were originally humans might not be humans in their dreams. They could also beco other kinds of creatures.
One might even be a carp whose mory only lasted seven breaths!
“Let see, let see… Although I was able to recall Feng Xia’s mories every ti, I’d forget them again quickly. So, as a preemptive asure, I made use of a quick opportunity to selectively instill a small portion of my mories into the 16th Prince…”
However, the effect seed less than ideal.
...
Although the 16th Prince had secretly beco stronger, the powerful enemies that ca later were too terrifying. Even the Lingyun Emperor could not stop them. In an instant, everything was destroyed. There was no way to turn the tide at all.
“But fortunately, I have enough ti to keep trying.”
A smile appeared on Feng Xia’s face.
The other challengers had a limited number of jade talismans. Once they used up all the jade talismans they had, they would either have to rely on their own strength to resist the divine light or be expelled by it.
However, he had the strange Chaos Jade Talisman in his hand. He could stay on the Heavenly Stairway for as long as he wanted.
“Let’s try again. I hope I won’t be a carp this ti.”
At the thought of this, Feng Xia relaxed his mind and rged with the divine light of the Heavenly Stairway again.
Ti passed bit by bit. In the end, Feng Xia confird one thing with great difficulty. This ti, he did not turn into a carp with a mory that only lasted seven breaths.
However…
He seed to have beco a willow tree in the palace.
Although he no longer had a mory that lasted only seven breaths, as a tree demon that had just gained sentience, Feng Xia “quickly” discovered that… his thinking speed was really too slow!
...
A normal lifeform’s single thought happened in an instant.
If he wanted to complete a thought, it would take at least the ti to burn an incense stick. A slightly more complicated thought might take him more than half a day.
For example, when he first gained consciousness, from the mont the sun rose in the east, he only had two thoughts.
Ah, this moon is so white.
Ah, this sun is really bright.
When he was about to have his third thought, the sun had already risen the next day.
Therefore, for the first month, Feng Xia was basically alternating between thinking that the moon was really white or the sun was really bright. He beca trapped in this strange loop and could not extricate himself…
