Chapter 2236 Can Master Kong Be Revived?

In the Saint Son Hall, he and Zhang Xuan had hit it off at first sight and become close friends.

Later, they fell out over his sister's matter and stopped interacting, but deep down, he still regarded him as both a rival and a friend.

It was just that later, this guy cultivated too fast, breaking through layer after layer, creating countless myths...

He had thought he could never catch up, never dreaming that the Teacher Continent, the Upper Firmament, and the Divine Realm had a huge time difference.

Since that was the case, catching up to him... shouldn't be hard!

Counting the time in the Divine Realm, he had only been cultivating a little over a month longer than him. As long as he was serious and worked hard, catching up to his cultivation level and giving him a good beating wouldn't be difficult!

"Defeat Zhang Xuan?"

Hearing his confident words, Hu Yaoyao and Yu Fei'er exchanged glances and shook their heads: "Whatever makes you happy..."

He hadn't been able to catch up before, and in the Divine Realm, they didn't think he could, but... if it really was as they guessed, just a Superior Deity, the gap wasn't huge, so maybe there was hope...

Even if he couldn't surpass him, he could still follow his pace and advance together...

At this thought, both of them were filled with motivation.

"So beautiful... This powerhouse recognized by heaven and earth is also our idol..."

Looking up at the sky, the two sighed simultaneously.

...

Ignoring the astonished gazes of the nine emperors around him, Zhang Xuan closed his eyes tightly, sensing the changes in his mind.

Initial stage of Title Deity King!

Mid stage of Title Deity King!

...

Peak of Title Deity King!

In less than a minute, his soul had risen from the peak of ordinary Deity King to the peak of Title Deity King!

Most importantly, it still hadn't stopped, continuing to increase.

The Heavenly Title instantly boosted his soul by several levels, even more terrifying than the power of faith.

"Now is not the time to break through to Deity Lord..."

Exhaling a breath, Zhang Xuan suppressed the still-increasing soul power.

Nine Heavens Enfeoffment was equivalent to the Deity Lords of the Nine Heavens. Being titled simultaneously, the power was as strong as nine ordinary titles stacked together. Normally, it could allow a direct charge to Deity Lord, but his true qi cultivation was too low. If he did that, it would attract the Heavenly Tribulation of a Great Emperor, and it was foreseeable that he would be easily crushed to dust without any ability to resist...

If that happened, he would become the first Deity Lord in history to be killed by a calamity right after breaking through.

It would be too embarrassing to spread!

So, he made a prompt decision and directly suppressed the soul that was about to advance.

After all, he had already comprehended the techniques of the Deity Lord level. Once his true qi and physical body had accumulated enough, it wouldn't be too late to break through.

"Good..."

Seeing that he could remain so rational under these circumstances, Luo Ruoxin breathed a sigh of relief.

Cultivation is not always about breaking through as fast as possible; one must take steady steps to unleash stronger combat power!

The man she liked and admired indeed possessed extraordinary courage and perseverance.

"I'm going to find a way to resolve the Heavenly Dao conflict. Will you come with me, or..."

After stabilizing his power, Zhang Xuan exhaled and looked at the girl before him.

Having met again and resolved his inner demon, he naturally didn't want to be apart.

"I need to go back... There's something I need to do... I'll find you when I'm done!" Luo Ruoxin's eyes held reluctance.

There was something she had to do as soon as possible, and she couldn't refuse.

"Alright!" Zhang Xuan nodded and looked at the little yellow chicken: "Let's go!"

"Mm!" The yellow chicken nodded, waved its hand, and the two tore through space, disappearing on the spot.

Luo Ruoxin glanced at them and then vanished as well.

The other Great Emperors then teleported away.

The battle just now had shocked them, and now it seemed they were about to witness the birth of another Great Emperor.

If before, with the Tianzong Great Emperor, they had other thoughts—either to win him over or to stop his growth—facing this one, with Lingxi Deity Lord as his girlfriend and the Undying Deity Lord as his spirit pet...

They really didn't dare!

...

Returning to Master Kong's mountain gate.

"Teacher Zhang!"

Ziyuan Ancient Sage and the others gathered around.

"Master Kong..." Zhang Xuan's expression darkened.

"We already know..." Ziyuan Ancient Sage nodded: "Just now... the statue of the teacher in the room shattered, and we knew that the teacher's soul had scattered!"

"My condolences..."

Knowing that these students of Master Kong had spent countless years with him, their bond deeper than father and son, Zhang Xuan offered comfort.

"There's no need for condolences. We don't believe the teacher would leave us like this!" Ziyuan Ancient Sage shook his head.

Zhang Xuan was startled: "I saw with my own eyes that his soul scattered. Soul scattering means... complete death, doesn't it?"

Soul scattering meant a person's complete disappearance, representing total extinction.

But the other didn't believe it, and didn't seem that sorrowful...

"Soul scattering doesn't necessarily mean death. Can't the Nether Soul Pool in the Nether Soul Heaven resurrect those whose souls have scattered? And the Undying Deity Lord, whose soul scattered decades ago, has now fully recovered, hasn't he?" Ziyuan Ancient Sage said.

"This..." Zhang Xuan's whole body trembled.

Yes!

The Nether Soul Pool could use the power of faith to restore those whose souls had scattered... The Undying Deity Lord could also be reborn after death. How could Master Kong, a man of destiny whose strength surpassed all ages, not have any backup plan?

How ridiculous that he had been heartbroken just now; perhaps the other had already found another way to be reborn!

But...

"Even if reborn, is he still himself?"

A doubt arose.

Although the Undying Deity Lord was reborn, he had become a little yellow chicken... completely different from before, no longer his former self.

Even the Nether Soul Pool could only restore the soul!

Whether the reborn soul had the same memories and consciousness as before, no one knew.

"Definitely!" Ziyuan Ancient Sage nodded.

"Why are you so sure?" Seeing his expression, Zhang Xuan frowned.

Clearly, the man before him knew something, otherwise he wouldn't have such an expression.

"Deity Lord, could you trouble you to seal this hall and block out the will of the Heavenly Dao?" Ziyuan Ancient Sage looked over.

"Alright!" The yellow chicken nodded, waved its hand, and a force enveloped the entire hall, completely isolating it from the outside world.

Ziyuan Ancient Sage then looked at Zhang Xuan again.

"I'll try!" Zhang Xuan nodded.

Sealing the hall was useless against the Heavenly Dao, because Zhang Xuan himself was the Heavenly Dao, and he also had the Heavenly Dao Library in his mind.

Just like the Tianji Master branch back then, no matter how much they obscured the heavenly secrets, as long as he was there, it was equivalent to being spied on by the Heavenly Dao.

With a thought, his powerful mental energy enveloped the library.

Before, he might not have been able to do this, but now that he had comprehended the techniques of a Great Emperor, it wasn't difficult.

"Done!" Zhang Xuan looked over.

Seeing that the Heavenly Dao was completely blocked, Ziyuan Ancient Sage breathed a sigh of relief and looked over: "Teacher Zhang, have you heard of a technique that the teacher cultivated... the Three Corpses Severing?"
