First Arrival

Unknown dimensions...

Unknown space-time...

Flowing Wind City.

Here, the sky is dim and lightless. Upon the ground, not even a single tenacious blade of green grass can be found.

A withered yellow hue is the dominant color adorning this world.

Inside an extremely simple house, there is a young man. Dressed in a white robe, he is cultivating.

As his sleeves slowly settle, Xiao Feng opens his eyes, a hint of disappointment revealed in his bright, deep black eyes.

He raises his gaze and slowly rises from the bed, walking leisurely to the window.

Nearly 18 years have passed...

Nearly 18 years have passed since he was born into this world, and he knew where he had arrived from a very young age...

Because... it was all too familiar.

What he had transmigrated into... was clearly the world of a novel he had once read on Earth called "Against The Gods."

Moreover, it was the Abyss world that the author had only roughly outlined, not even fully written yet.

This novel was good in every way, except for its slow updates...

He had once joked, "Early to bed, early to rise, live longer than Mars..." But he truly hadn't expected that he actually... wouldn't live longer.

And what he didn't expect even more was that instead of waiting for the next chapter of the "Six God Kingdoms" to be updated, he had arrived in the Abyss one step ahead of "Yun Che"...

However... Xiao Feng had a deep and unforgettable understanding of Yun Che's knowledge and thoughts.

Originally, at the age of 6, he had already broken through layers of shackles, and his cultivation had reached the God Tribulation Realm without any bottlenecks.

But for some reason, as the people around him grew up one by one and broke through in cultivation, he himself was stuck at level 10 of the God Tribulation Realm without any progress.

The God Tribulation Realm requires one to attract a lightning tribulation and successfully overcome it in order to advance.

Generally speaking, the peak of the God Tribulation Realm allows one to directly communicate with the heavens and earth and attract a lightning tribulation to undergo it.

But he... had been at the peak of the God Tribulation Realm for a full 12 years. Although his Mystic Force had been constantly growing, he had been unable to elicit the Heavenly Dao's lightning tribulation.

This had led to his inability to break through. Not only was there no progress in his realm, but even individual Mystic Arts and Mystic Techniques seemed to have a restriction, shackling Xiao Feng...

"Feng'er?"

A clear and melodious voice entered Xiao Feng's ears.

Hearing the voice, Xiao Feng swept away the disappointment in his eyes, confirming that his expression was not dejected.

He slowly walked down from the second floor and arrived on the first floor...

As soon as Xiao Feng reached the first floor, he saw a woman.

She was wearing a light white elegant dress, her black hair was coiled up, her skin was as white as fresh snow, her breasts were full and plump, her waist was so slender that it could be grasped with one hand, and her enchanting and perfect figure could ignite a man's desire with just one glance.

However, her facial features were extremely ordinary, without any outstanding features, which would make any man exclaim in regret.

Seeing her, Xiao Feng revealed a slight smile:

"Sister Ling'er, I've finished cultivating. How are the customers in the medical clinic lately?"

"The same as always..." Xiao Ling'er replied, "It's just that people who come to the medical clinic lately have been saying that several cities seem to have turned into ghost towns overnight, and all the people have disappeared..."

Xiao Feng didn't pay much attention and responded, "I've heard so many alarmist rumors like that lately. Hasn't the Wind Cloud Empire's royal family already issued an announcement to refute them?"

"That's true..." Xiao Ling'er nodded lightly, then she looked Xiao Feng up and down and said:

"Hey, I see that your Mystic Force seems to have become a bit more 'solid.' I guess it won't be long before you can break through."

"I feel the same way," Xiao Feng said with a serious face.

"Hehe~"

Seeing this, Xiao Ling'er smiled: "I watched you grow up. I know your talent better than anyone else. You will definitely... definitely become that... the most dazzling star!"

Xiao Feng returned her smile.

"Oh right, Boss Wang came by a while ago. Now that you're done cultivating, can you watch the shop for a while? I'll go deliver the medicine to him," Xiao Ling'er said.

"No need..." Hearing this, Xiao Feng quickly said, "Hey, you should just stay in the medical clinic and treat patients. I can go do things like that. I don't have anything to do anyway, so I might as well go for a stroll."

"Okay..." Seeing this, Xiao Ling'er didn't refuse, a smile appearing on her lips as she took out the medicine and handed it to Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng took the medicine and went straight out the door. They had been together for more than ten years, and they already had a great understanding of each other. There was no need to say much about many things.

Watching Xiao Feng's figure leave, Xiao Ling'er stared for a long time before slowly coming to the partition on the first floor.

This was a rather large study room with a large collection of books. The books were dust-free, but some were a bit old...

She picked up a book called "Mystic Cultivation History" and quickly flipped through it.

As she read the familiar words, she couldn't help but whisper softly:

"Why is it that he hasn't been able to break through for a full 12 years?"

"The God Tribulation Realm should be the realm least likely to have bottlenecks, shouldn't it?"

She pored over countless books, leaving no local gossip or miscellaneous writings unread. Any glimmer of inspiration she found, she would scrutinize repeatedly, but always to no avail.

She knew that Xiao Feng was definitely not as carefree as he appeared on the surface.

Every day, countless Mystic practitioners died under the Heavenly Tribulation while trying to transcend to the God Tribulation Realm, leading some to choose to remain in the God Tribulation Realm for life out of fear of death.

But… in an environment where almost everyone was doing everything they could to pursue the supreme Mystic Path, how would others view a peerless genius who had reached the God Tribulation Realm at the age of six, yet had been stuck there for a full 12 years without any bottlenecks?

The first reaction anyone would have was four words: "Afraid of death."

But… that wasn't the most important thing. What she feared most was Xiao Feng's gradually weakening spirit…

As a doctor, mental illnesses were also within her scope of treatment.

Perhaps anyone who glanced at him would be perceived as mocking him, rather than just unintentionally looking in his direction.

With a soft sigh, Xiao Ling'er's thoughts drifted, and she unconsciously murmured:

"Could it be… caused by that incident back then?"

But quickly, she gathered her scattered thoughts and plunged back into the books, even though she could recite them backward, she still read them carefully, seeking to not miss any deeply meaningful implications between the lines.

A desolate and barren environment, a world with few inhabitants.

After giving the medicine to Boss Wang, Xiao Feng walked slowly through the city. Here, Abyssal Dust permeated everything, even the air was uncomfortable.

Even though he had been here for a long time, he still found it difficult to adapt.

He silently circulated the Miracle of Life, and instantly a faint, pure white light appeared on his body… Light Mystic Force!

Light Mystic Force had the effect of blocking Abyssal Dust. This was something Xiao Feng discovered after cultivating the Miracle of Life.

Abyssal Dust… was as ubiquitous as air, constantly devouring people's lives until death.

And the only way to resist Abyssal Dust was to constantly improve one's Mystic Force and become stronger.

Or to go to a God Kingdom protected by a True God.

Because True Gods could use their divine power to create barriers that isolate Abyssal Dust… or even create pure lands without Abyssal Dust.

Xiao Feng looked up at the dim sky, his thoughts complex.

His Light Mystic Force was cultivated through the Creation God Art "Miracle of Life" from Li Suo, one of the Four Creation Gods.

To cultivate the Miracle of Life, one must first have its sacred heart and sacred body.

And even now, he faintly remembered that when he was a baby, a voice seemed to appear in his ear, softly chanting the general formula of the Miracle of Life.

And helped him introduce the first wisp of Mystic Force in his infancy, allowing him to reach the Initial Mystic Realm as a baby.

And the Mystic Art was not unfamiliar, even familiar, because it came from the book called "Against The Gods".

Wandering through the city…

Suddenly, Xiao Feng's intuition sensed that someone was watching him. He followed the gaze and saw a man.

The man was tall and upright, with a simple appearance, but at this moment he exuded an aura of domineering confidence.

Beside him was another man, who seemed to be his follower.

Xiao Feng knew the person who exuded the aura of domineering confidence. His name was Qi Panjian.

Xiao Feng saw the person watching him, but ignored him.

He turned his head, intending to continue his walk.

On the other hand, Qi Panjian saw Xiao Feng looking over and not walking towards him, so he took large strides and unhurriedly followed Xiao Feng.

Qi Panjian came to Xiao Feng's side and greeted him as if he had met an acquaintance: "Yo, Brother Xiao, how have you been? It's been a long time since I've seen you."

Xiao Feng twitched the corner of his mouth. Qi Panjian was two years older than Xiao Feng, and they had "played" together when they were young, so calling him "brother" wasn't impolite.

Since he had come in front of him, Xiao Feng couldn't pretend not to see him, so he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Pan, long time no see. Judging by your aura, your cultivation must have improved again."

Qi Panjian said calmly, "Indeed, there has been a small breakthrough."

After speaking, he very slightly glanced at the follower beside him.

The follower's name was Qi Yi, and he was a servant of the Qi Family, specifically responsible for Qi Panjian's daily life.

Although he was just a servant of the Qi Family, for some reason, Xiao Feng had a relatively deep impression of this person in his Soul Sea.

Qi Yi exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Young Master is truly humble. He successfully transcended the tribulation and advanced to the God Spirit Realm as early as last month, and he endured a Second Heavenly Tribulation, so his future is boundless."

"And yesterday, he became a level two God Spirit Realm prodigy in one fell swoop. It seems that a mere God King is definitely just around the corner!"

Xiao Feng knew where the impression came from. This flattery was over the top.

"Shut up!" Suddenly, Qi Panjian spoke, scolding Qi Yi.

This made Qi Yi instantly feel at a loss.

Even Xiao Feng was confused by him. His personality… shouldn't be like this.

Qi Panjian said righteously, "What did I say when we were at the Qi Family?"

"I have repeatedly emphasized to you countless times, 'A dragon lies hidden in the abyss, conceal your talent.' I have repeatedly emphasized the word 'conceal.' You must never publicize and make it known to everyone because of a little achievement!"

"What's more, in front of Xiao Feng, he reached the God Tribulation Realm at the age of six, knowing he would inevitably attract worldwide attention, even be hated by others. So he 'deliberately' faded into the crowd, not making a single breakthrough for twelve years. Despite the rumors that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, he remained unmoved, never making the slightest progress..."

He paused slowly after saying that... his tone even more elevated than before, "I am already inferior to this perseverance. I think this mere God Spirit Realm of mine, Xiao Feng could certainly enter at will..."

"And you... speaking like this in front of Xiao Feng, wouldn't it make it seem like I'm deliberately showing off, teaching my grandmother to suck eggs!"

Xiao Feng's mouth twitched slightly...

After speaking, Qi Panjian even reached out, wanting to pat the non-existent dust off Xiao Feng's shoulder. Who knew Xiao Feng would dodge to the side, causing his hand to pat only an afterimage.

He quickly retracted his hand and placed it on his lower back, a look of astonishment flashing across his face. Even now, he still couldn't completely see through Xiao Feng's movement trajectory!

"Cough cough..." He coughed lightly, trying to defuse the awkwardness.

Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Feng spoke first, "Congratulations, Brother Panjian, on your breakthrough. I haven't visited in a while, I've been remiss. If you have time, you can go to my sister's Medical Clinic, explain the situation, and get some medicine for your injuries."

"I have matters to attend to and can't spare the time to visit, please forgive me."

Qi Panjian laughed heartily, "It's nothing, but the wound medicine from your family is indeed effective; those old brands can't compare. I won't stand on ceremony, I'll go in a bit. You go ahead and get busy, I won't disturb you."

Xiao Feng didn't respond, turning and walking towards the city gates...

Qi Yi looked at Xiao Feng's back and said with a sneer, "Still so arrogant, still acting like the genius everyone admired!"

He had always been overshadowed by Xiao Feng since childhood, and couldn't win against him in arguments either. That's why the first person Qi Panjian thought of after his breakthrough was Xiao Feng.

But at this moment, the smile on Qi Panjian's face couldn't be concealed at all. He praised Qi Yi, "Well done."

"You don't know, seeing Xiao Feng's expression just now, it was really... tsk tsk tsk, you can't imagine how great it felt!"
