Peerless War God

"It's easy to understand. This kid is quite intelligent. He does have the chance to step onto the path to immortality, but I don't know how many years it will take." Ji Xinghao sighed with emotion.    

He indeed had a whole new level of respect for Chen Xiao.    

At one point, he even had the thought of taking Chen Xiao as his disciple, but he gave up on that idea in the end.    

After all, Chen Xiao's improvement was too fast. He was actually able to obtain the first place in the test of the Immortal King's seat and obtain the reward of the Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure.    

Even he himself had not been able to achieve such strength and methods back then, but Chen Xiao had.    

Such a powerful cultivator was rare. It was impossible to take him as a disciple, so it was better to take a step back.    

At this point, it proved that Ji Xinghao's idea was right.    

The Duke of Zi Jin drank his wine and sighed, "That's right. It has only been a few decades since we last met, yet he has improved so fast. If I am not wrong, within a thousand years, he will reach immortality. That is much faster than you, Xinghao."    

Ji Xinghao's face was filled with bitterness. He knew that the Marquis was teasing him, but he wasn't angry. He just felt that Chen Xiao was getting more and more unbelievable.    

It seemed to be true that heroes appeared in troubled times.    

Ji Xinghao shook his head and said, "You really dare to think about breaking through to the Immortal Realm within a thousand years."    

He had also seen Chen Xiao's skeletal age. He was not even a thousand years old. If he could break through to the Immortal Life Realm within a thousand years, he would definitely be the most talented and talented person he had ever seen.    

"What? You don't think it's possible?" The Duke of Purple Gold paused for a moment and asked.    

"This...!" Ji Xinghao's expression became slightly grim. After hearing what the Duke of Purple Gold said, he wasn't very sure anymore.    

After all, along the way, Chen Xiao had created too many miracles. If he could really break through to the Eternal Realm in a thousand years, it didn't seem impossible.    

One had to know that cultivators who could break through to the Immortal Realm in a thousand years were definitely comparable to monsters, peerless geniuses that only appeared once every ten thousand years.    

Even in the history of the God's Realm, such cultivators were rare.    

As for himself, he had spent three thousand years to finally achieve immortality. Only he knew how difficult it was.    

Could Chen Xiao do it? Ji Xinghao was skeptical about this.    

"It's too difficult to achieve immortality in a thousand years," Ji Xinghao said in disappointment.    

When the Marquis Zi Jin heard this, he raised his eyebrows and immediately became interested. He said, "How about this, why don't we make a bet? If Chen Xiao can break through to immortality within a thousand years, you will lose a pot of good wine to me. How about it?"    

Ji Xinghao chuckled. He looked at the wine gourd in the Duke of Zi Jin's hand and said, "You still can't change this bad habit."    

Duke Nanfeng didn't think much of it and said, "Wine is a good thing. It's just that you don't know how to appreciate it. If you don't have any wine, then wouldn't life be a lot less fun?"    

"Alright, let's bet. Let's bet a pot of good wine. Can it be exchanged for Immortal Jade?"    

"You... Hahaha!" Duke Jin paused for a moment before laughing.    

This was the Ji Xinghao that he was familiar with. He knew how to take advantage of every opportunity.    

At the same time, he was thinking about something else.    

[I hope it is not too late. If the demons arrive earlier, it will be a disaster for the entire God's Realm. Countless humans will die.]    

In that case, even if they wanted to cultivate in peace, they wouldn't have a chance to do so.    

Time was of the essence for Chen Xiao.    

... "    

Inside the Immortal Mansion, Chen Xiao walked back, but in his mind, he kept thinking back to what Ji Xinghao and the Marquis Zi Jin had taught him and explained to him. This was very important to him.    

He could comprehend a lot of tricks from it, as well as the key to breaking through to the Immortal Realm.    

He was so focused that he even ignored Yue Yao in front of him as if he didn't see her.    

"Husband..."    

Yue Yao opened her mouth and was about to shout, but she immediately stopped when she saw that. She stood at the side with a cute and silly expression, like a wooden person, unable to bear to disturb Chen Xiao.    

A pair of bright eyes blinked a few times as they stared at Chen Xiao, thinking that something had happened to him.    

However, after taking a closer look, there was nothing wrong. She was just distracted. Yue Yao could not help but heave a sigh of relief.    

At the same time, she was a little worried. She could tell that Chen Xiao had something on his mind, and it was not convenient for him to tell them.    

Just like that, after a long while, Chen Xiao finally came back to his senses and seemed to have understood something.    

"Sigh, I understand now. Why am I so stupid? So that's how it is. I didn't think of it at all."    

Only then did Chen Xiao realize that Yue Yao had been standing not far away from him. Her cautious appearance was completely ignored by him.    

He scratched his head and asked, "Yue Yao, why are you here?"    

Yue Yao laughed in spite of herself, pouted, rolled her eyes at him, and complained: "I am a living man, but I have always been here. You were too absorbed in your thoughts to see me, you fool."    

"Is, is that so? It's my fault, my fault." Chen Xiao immediately apologized.    

He knew that the first thing he had to do at this time was to admit his mistake, especially in front of his woman.    

It was not shameful at all to admit his mistake to his woman.    

Besides, Yue Yao was such a gentle and charming girl. He should just lower his head to calm her down.    

As expected, Yue Yao smiled when she saw him. She rolled her eyes and said, "Fine, fine. I am not blaming you. Oh right, husband, is there something on your mind? Why are you thinking so hard? Tell me. Maybe I can help you."    

Hearing that, Chen Xiao smiled bitterly. Yue Yao really couldn't help him with this matter. Even if she wanted to, there was nothing she could do.    

After all, this was a big matter of breaking through to the Immortal Realm. Yue Yao's cultivation level was still too far away, so she couldn't help much.    

However, he didn't try to hide it. He just said, "It is about cultivation. I don't know why, but I am always anxious. I feel like I am forcing myself to keep moving forward."    

Yue Yao's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately understood something. She leaned over and gently leaned on Chen Xiao's body, comforting him in a soft voice.    

"It must be because you're under too much pressure. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. As the saying goes, even if the sky falls, there will still be tall people staring at it. We will always be by your side, no matter what's in front of you. Chen Xiao, you're not alone."    

Yue Yao's eyes sparkled as she spoke. Her words were very sincere and moving, coming from the bottom of her heart.    

Chen Xiao was startled for a moment and was somewhat touched.    

It had to be said that Yue Yao was really considerate, being able to see through the crux of the matter with just a single sentence.    

That's right, it should be because he had been under too much mental pressure recently, and he was unable to resolve it.    

"With your words, I feel much better," Chen Xiao replied.
