Every time the evil sacrificial spirit brought up these specious questions, I knew that he would shut his mouth and only give me a vague hope.
That was indeed the case. When I asked him again, he told me that I would know the answer soon and that it wasn't the right time to tell me. He just told me to work hard on my cultivation.
I couldn't do anything if he didn't tell me, but I was still a little excited. No matter what, the evil sacrificial spirit had given me a little hope. Just as he had said, the only thing I had lost was the opportunity to see Tao Wu every six months. In fact, I had to continue doing many things to help Tao Wu break free from the Heavenly Law. If the evil sacrificial spirit didn't lie to me, nothing had changed.
After talking about Tao Wu, I became silent and prepared to meditate. After all, I had been injured in the Xu family and had consumed a lot of my cultivation.
But before I started meditating, I felt the strange spiritual power in my body. After thinking for a while, I asked the evil sacrificial spirit what was the God's power in my body.
As I had expected, the evil sacrificial spirit knew about this. His expression didn't change as he said, "The God's power is the power of a God. You have a special identity. It's not strange that you've awakened the God's power as your cultivation increases."
What he said made sense. After listening to him, I wanted to ask more questions. I opened my mouth, but I didn't know what to ask.
After thinking for a while, I asked again, "Besides the God's power, there is another powerful force in my Yang Spirit that isn't inferior to the God's power. Wu Jiuzhui once injured Wu Jiuzhui. He called it the 'Monster Emperor's power'."
I wanted to describe the power in the Yang Spirit in detail, but the evil sacrificial spirit answered, "A power that isn't inferior to the God's power is naturally the God's power. Wu Jiuzhui was right. This is the Monster Emperor's God's power."
The Monster Emperor's God's power … So, the other strange spiritual power should be Emperor Ku's God's power?
Or was it Xuanyuan's God's power?
While he was deep in thought, the evil sacrificial spirit spoke again, "The God's Power in your body originates from your ancestral inheritance. However, when the Demon Emperor was sent into the cycle of reincarnation, only a small portion of the God's Power remained. The rest had long since dissipated. Thus, what you've awakened now is a small portion of the God's Power that was left behind.
Of course, even if it's just a small portion, it's still extremely beneficial to you. When you cultivate, you need to comprehend more and strengthen it. "
His words confirmed that the mystical power in my body had indeed originated from an ancient inheritance. No wonder I had such great power. No wonder Wu Jiuzhui coveted it.
With that in mind, the ghoul priest continued, "I came here to warn you that you must be careful to conceal the Godly power inside of you. As the Mountain and Sea Realm opens, Immortal Brightbloom will gradually appear. If they discover the Godly power inside of you, they will go all out to fight over it. If that happens, not even I can save you."
Would the power of a god cause the Xiaju Immortals to fight over it?
After thinking about it for a moment, I understood.
This Godly power was the power of the Demon Emperor and Xuanyuan. Their cultivation bases were naturally higher than Immortal Brightbloom's, and their power surpassed that of Immortal Brightbloom's. Therefore, it was only natural that they would covet it.
From that, it seemed that after Immortal Brightbloom's cultivation base, there would be differences in power.
I wanted to ask the evil sacrificial spirit about this, but he spoke first. "Your internal injuries haven't completely healed yet. First, adjust your breathing and focus on gaining enlightenment of the Godly power."
Since he had already spoken, I didn't press him any further. I did as he said, sat down cross-legged, and began to adjust my breathing and restore my cultivation base.
A few hours later, my internal injuries were completely healed. Thanks to the Godly power, my cultivation base was completely restored. During the entire process, I focused on gaining enlightenment of the Godly power, but in the end, I didn't gain anything.
Since the Godly power surpassed Immortal Brightbloom's power, it would be strange if I could comprehend it with my current cultivation base. It would be better to study it later. I couldn't rush it.
After I finished adjusting my body, it was already the next morning. The evil sacrificial spirit was still meditating, so I didn't disturb him. I stood up and stretched my body, ready to go out. However, as soon as I pushed the door open, I saw Bai Ling walking toward my room from not far away.
She was the master of the Medicine King Valley. At this time, she had arranged for people to be stationed outside, but she had stayed behind to manage the affairs of the valley.
Seeing me come out, she quickly walked toward me. After greeting me, she told me that she had come because Little Wang Li wanted to see me. She was worried that I had just returned and didn't know if there were any other matters, so she came to see the situation first.
Hearing her mention Little Wang Li, I remembered the young children I had brought back. Yesterday, Zhenren Guan had told me that there were very few people left in the valley. I didn't know if there was anyone taking care of the young children.
Since there was nothing else to do, I didn't want to disturb the evil sacrificial spirit. I followed Bai Ling to see the situation of the young children.
Soon, we arrived at the place where the young children were placed. As soon as we entered, I heard cries coming from the house. When I got closer, I found that the doors of this row of houses were locked, and the cries were coming from inside.
Seeing me frown, Bai Ling hurriedly explained, "At this time, there is a shortage of manpower in the valley, so I'm taking care of these young children.
After the initial panic, they all wanted to go home. At first, one or two could be calmed down, but later, dozens of young children cried at the same time. She was helpless. In order to ensure that they didn't run away, she could only use this method. "
Bai Ling's words were true. These young children were still young, so they couldn't be expected to be as sensible as adults. If they were distressed together, Bai Ling alone wouldn't be able to take care of them.
However, these young children were orphans. Most of them would have to stay in the King of Medicine Valley in the future. It wasn't a good idea in the long run.
I was a little worried. After I pushed the door open, the young children in the house cried even louder when they saw someone come in. Many of them were rolling on the ground, and some of them were tired. They were sleeping soundly on the bed. The house was a mess.
I glanced around. Among the many young children, only Little Wang Li was sitting on the bed, meditating. His face was calm, and he didn't look anxious at all.
Seeing this scene, I felt quite gratified.
After Little Wang Li was born, he had suffered a lot. Every time he had an attack, I felt quite scared. However, this little fellow always blinked his big eyes calmly and never cried. At that time, I felt that he was quite extraordinary.
Later on, he sacrificed to the evil spirit and was freed from his suffering. Zhang Kanwen then taught him the techniques of Mount Wen. At such a young age, he had already gradually sensed the existence of the Qi of Dao. It was reasonable that he had such a strong character.
After watching for a moment, Little Wang Li seemed to sense the movement around him and opened his eyes. When he saw me, he immediately smiled. He jumped off the bed and walked to me. He didn't rush to hug me like other children of his age, but knelt down and called me Martial Uncle.
It wasn't a bad thing to be mature at a young age, but going too far was as bad as not going far enough. I smiled and picked him up. "You said that you wanted to see me. Is there something wrong?"
Wang Li, who was like an adult, naturally didn't want to see me just because he missed me. After I asked, he nodded and replied in his childish voice, "Martial Uncle, I've been back here with these children for some time. Due to the lack of people to take care of them, they have been crying non-stop. Aunt Bai Ling and I have tried our best to take care of them. If this continues, there will definitely be problems."
Hearing his words, I was shocked.
I originally thought that this little fellow was mature at a young age, but who knew that he would be so mature that he could actually think of these things on his own initiative.
I turned to look at Bai Ling. She also looked surprised and waved at me. "I'm also worried about this problem, but I haven't told Xiao Li about it.
How old is he? Why would he think of such a problem? "
Hearing what Bai Ling said, Wang Li shrunk his head in embarrassment before continuing. "When master left, he asked me to stay behind to help Martial Uncle take care of Medicine King Valley. I'm young and can't do anything else, so I can only think about the small things around me."
This little fellow wasn't just sensible, he wasn't much different from an adult.
I smiled and scratched his nose. Then, I asked, "Since you think that it's not good to continue like this, have you thought about how to solve this problem?"
At this time, there was no solution to the lack of manpower. I also felt that this problem was tricky, so I just asked casually without any intention of testing him.
However, I didn't expect Wang Li to really have an idea. He tilted his head and thought for a while, then said to me, "I think that Aunt Bai Ling and I should work a little harder for the time being to take care of them. But to solve this problem in the long run, we have to find something for them to do so that they won't be confused and afraid anymore."
What he said was very reasonable, but this was a group of six to seven-year-old children. What could they do?
I continued to ask. Wang Li seemed to have an answer in his heart, so he didn't think much and answered directly, "I think we should teach them Dao techniques."
Hearing that, I immediately stared with my eyes wide open.
What Little Wang Li said was right. These children were originally captured from the Monster race that I had killed and possessed spiritual roots. Their talents could be said to be outstanding.
In the current situation of the human world, we were in urgent need of manpower, and the battle with the Monster race wasn't something that could be done overnight. These children were the best targets for nurturing. As the scale of the battle expanded in the future, there would definitely be heavy casualties. So, inheritance was the first thing to consider.
After thinking about it carefully, I would definitely be able to think of this, but it was really scary that Wang Li could think of this before me.
I was silent for a long time before I asked Wang Li, "How did you think of this idea?"
Wang Li tilted his head and thought for a while before replying with a smile, "Master told me a few days ago that there are many Monster race people, and we have very few people. There are even fewer people with high cultivation, so the situation against the Monster race isn't optimistic. He also told me to grow up quickly, so that when my cultivation is high, I can help Master uncle to fight against the Monster race.
At that time, I thought that I definitely wouldn't be able to do it alone. If these children could be like me and become very powerful in the future, then they would be able to help Master uncle. "
Originally, I thought that he could think of all this, just like what he said earlier, to find something for the children to do. Although cultivation is boring, but once they have some abilities, they would naturally be able to solve the problem of their confusion and fear.
However, after hearing Wang Li's reply, I was sure that he wasn't just simply finding something for them to do. He was just like me, still looking at the long term.
Even though his thoughts might have been inspired by Zhang Kanwen, but for a five to six-year-old child, the expression of such thoughts was too abnormal.
