Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

Chapter 108: My Son is Really Amazing!

Underground cave.

After more than a month of management and care, the spiritual land not only gained four wooden houses, but also opened up three acres of spiritual fields.

The spiritual fields were lush and vibrant, filled with various spiritual plants and herbs.

In addition to his daily cultivation, Liu Zimo's biggest hobby was personally taking care of these three acres of spiritual fields.

Every day, as he watched the spiritual plants and herbs growing in the fields, nourished by the spiritual spring, his mood became extremely pleasant.

For over a month, in order to take care of the spiritual fields and study alchemy, he had been staying in this cave and hadn't gone out.

As for his nephew Zhao Hongzhang, ever since he was brought into this spiritual land by Liu Zimo half a month ago, he fell in love with it immediately.

The rich spiritual energy here allowed him to meditate for longer periods of time without eating or drinking, which was exactly what he needed at the moment.

So, after entering the spiritual land and fully adapting to the concentration of spiritual energy here, Zhao Hongzhang plunged into the wooden house and never came out.

Surprisingly, out of the four family members, two of them had become homebodies, staying in the spiritual land all day and refusing to come out.

Only Liu Zimo and his father, Liu Yi, had official duties and would leave early in the morning and return late at night, only coming back to rest when it was almost dark.

In the evening, around six o'clock.

Liu Zimo appeared in the cave, holding food and wine, in a very good mood.

Seeing Liu Zimo sitting by the spiritual spring, studying the proportions of alchemy, he raised his hand and greeted, "Haozi, take a break and come prepare for dinner!"

"You're in for a treat today!"

"This afternoon, Xiaofeihong and Xiaoxiao killed a wild boar demon outside the city and cut off the most tender part of its hind leg. They had someone cook a pot of braised pork, and it smells amazing!"

"Take a whiff, it's still steaming!"

Saying that, Liu Zimo put the food box he was holding on the ground and opened the top layer.

Whoosh!

Instantly, a hot steam rose up, accompanied by the rich aroma of meat, making Liu Zimo unable to resist taking a deep sniff.

With a swish, he appeared in front of Liu Zimo, staring at the mouth-watering braised pork in the food box, drooling!

It smelled so good!

Before the catastrophe, braised pork was Liu Zimo's favorite dish.

Now, after several months, smelling this familiar aroma again, especially this braised pork made from the meat of a wild boar demon that had been baptized by spiritual energy, how could he resist?

Smack!

His hand reached out to grab the meat, but was slapped back by his older brother. Liu Zimo winced in pain and looked up at Liu Zimo.

"Brother, my hands are clean, no need to wash them again!"

Liu Zimo shook his head speechlessly and couldn't help but pat his head again, saying, "Dad hasn't come back yet, and you want to eat alone?"

"Quick, bring out the table from the house, set up the bowls and chopsticks, Dad should be back soon!"

As he spoke, a black shadow flashed by the spiritual spring, and Liu Yi, who was in stealth mode, calmly appeared.

Smelling the tempting aroma in the air, Liu Yi couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

His gaze fell on the food box in Liu Zimo's hand, and his eyes lit up.

"You two little rascals, eating delicious food behind Dad's back!"

Speaking, Liu Yi also appeared in front of Liu Zimo, without thinking, he reached into the food box and quickly took a piece of braised pork with a combination of fat and lean, and threw it directly into his mouth regardless of the heat.

That action was exactly the same as when Liu Zihao wanted to steal the braised pork earlier.

Seeing this, Liu Zimo's mouth twitched involuntarily.

He knew it would be like this. It's true that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Looking at Liu Zihao next to him, who was looking at him with a resentful and unfair expression, as if saying it's not fair.

Liu Zimo couldn't help but kick him in the butt, telling him to quickly go inside and move the table.

Really.

I can't control my father, and now I can't control you?

A moment later.

With the table and chairs arranged, the father and two sons sat facing each other.

Liu Zimo looked up at his father and younger brother, while Liu Yi and Liu Zihao lowered their heads and looked at the braised pork steaming on the table.

"Alright, let's eat!"

Originally, Liu Zimo wanted to say a few words, but shrugged helplessly and decided to feed the two first before speaking.

Otherwise, these father and son who were only thinking about the braised pork wouldn't listen to anything he said.

"Mmm, it smells so good!"

"So delicious, I've never had such tasty braised pork before!"

"Brother, is there any leftover wild boar meat? How about bringing some back tomorrow?"

While eating, Liu Yi and Liu Zihao exclaimed loudly.

Liu Zihao even started thinking about the leftover wild boar meat, typical of someone who is always thinking about what's in the pot while eating from the bowl.

But it's not surprising, after all, the wild boar demon is transformed from the native wild boars on Earth, and its meat has been catalyzed by spiritual energy, becoming even more tender and delicious. Few people wouldn't like it.

Liu Zimo ignored his greedy little brother and picked up a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, savoring it carefully.

At the same time, he picked up the wine jug he had brought back earlier and poured a cup for his father and himself.

A bite of meat, a sip of wine, it was truly enjoyable.

Soon, after three rounds of wine and five flavors of meat, the whole plate of braised pork was devoured by the three of them. Liu Yi's father also drank a bit too much and his cheeks were slightly flushed.

"Good son, I heard about what happened at the military office today!"

"One word, awesome!"

Under the influence of alcohol, Liu Yi began to let loose, giving Liu Zimo a thumbs up and openly praising him loudly:

"Truly worthy of being my son, so awesome!"

"One person defeated the Dali Temple and a martial arts sect that has lasted for thousands of years!"

"I just want to ask, who else in this world can be so powerful, who?!"

Liu Yi's face was full of pride and self-satisfaction.

Now, he was no longer the martial arts novice who knew nothing about the world of martial artists.

He had long known the high status and overall strength of the Dali Temple in the martial arts world of Daxia.

So when he heard that Liu Zimo had subdued the Zhuan Yuan Saint who came to cause trouble and made the entire Dali Temple completely submit, preparing to relocate the sect to Luozhou City, Liu Yi was dumbfounded.

He never expected that his eldest son would become so awesome!

As the father of such an amazing person, Liu Yi naturally felt extremely proud and his mindset became buoyant.

"Really?!"

Beside him, Liu Zihao, who was forbidden from drinking, wiped the grease off his mouth and widened his eyes in astonishment.

"Brother, you actually brought down the entire Dali Temple?!"

How could he be so amazing?

That was the Dali Temple that had been passed down for over a thousand years, and yet it was suddenly subdued by his older brother?!

"It's not that exaggerated, it was just an accident."

Liu Zimo shook his head slightly, being modest.

"The reason why Master Zhiyuan decided to relocate the sect so quickly was not solely because of me, there were other reasons as well."

No one understood Master Zhiyuan's feelings at that time better than Liu Zimo, and why he made the decision to abandon the thousand-year-old foundation of the Dali Temple and seek refuge in Luozhou City.

The devouring spirit bug lurking in Master Zhiyuan's sea of consciousness had truly frightened the old monk!

Before this, Master Zhiyuan probably couldn't have imagined that he, who had successfully advanced to the Saint Realm, would be unconsciously influenced and controlled by a demonic bug, becoming a puppet without any self-awareness!

Just imagine, even someone like him, who was a dual cultivator of spirit and martial arts and could be considered at the pinnacle of the Great Xia martial arts as a Saint-level warrior, had no resistance in front of that devouring spirit bug.

So, let alone others!

In this situation, if Master Zhiyuan still couldn't deeply understand the danger of the current demonic disaster, which had already exceeded everyone's expectations, then he would not deserve the title of a master.

Therefore, seeking safety in numbers and relocating the sect naturally became Master Zhiyuan's only choice at the moment.

"The specific reasons, I can't disclose."

Facing the curious gazes of his father and younger brother, Liu Zimo shook his head slightly.

"But after the entire Dali Temple is relocated, I will probably leave Luozhou for a while."

"What, you're leaving again?!"

Both Liu Yi and Liu Zihao were shocked at the same time, quickly suppressing their curiosity and nervously looking at Liu Zimo.

He had just returned from outside, how could he be thinking of leaving again?

Although they knew that Liu Zimo's martial arts cultivation had reached an unbelievable level, instinctively, they didn't want him to go out and take risks.

"Yes!" Liu Zimo nodded. "I plan to go to the capital again!"

"If everything goes smoothly, I might also visit places like Longhai, Jinhu, and Jinmen!"

After reaching the Spirit Abyss Realm in his spiritual cultivation, Liu Zimo clearly felt that his mental power seemed to have reached a bottleneck.

No, rather than calling it a bottleneck, it was more accurate to say that after reaching the Spirit Abyss Realm, the normal growth rate of his mental power that he had before could no longer keep up with the speed of advancement in the Spirit Abyss Realm.

It was like his cultivation capacity had evolved from a large jar to a vast lake.

And the total amount of mental power that used to flow into the large jar every day didn't increase much.

So, the mental power that used to quickly fill the large jar now flowed into the vast lake, and even the bottom of the lake couldn't cover it, making it insignificant.

Liu Zimo knew where the problem lay.

It was simply because his innate mental power was almost non-existent. Even though his spiritual cultivation had advanced to the Spirit Abyss Realm, his normal cultivation speed was as slow as a turtle, and his progress was naturally unsatisfactory.

Moreover, most of the "good brothers" and "good sisters" he had bound were martial arts geniuses, and the amount of mental power they could provide him with every day was extremely limited.

Even for cultivators like Ye Feihong, Lou Xiaoxiao, and Zhi Ming, who were also dual cultivators of spirit and martial arts.

Because the difference in spiritual cultivation realm was too great, although the amount of mental power generated during their breakthroughs was not small, when it was placed on Liu Zimo, who was in the Spirit Abyss Realm, it became almost imperceptible.

So, since breaking through to the Lingyuan Realm, Liu Zimo's cultivation progress in the Lingyuan Realm has only advanced by a pitiful one-thousandth in a whole month.

At this rate, if Liu Zimo wants to further advance his spiritual cultivation, he will need at least a thousand months!

A thousand months, which is more than forty-one years, is somewhat unacceptable for Liu Zimo, who is used to rapid advancement in cultivation.

Just when he was trying to find a way to break through this cultivation "bottleneck," the appearance of Sage Zhiyuan gave him hope for rapid promotion!

To be precise, it was the devouring spirit insect in Sage Zhiyuan's sea of consciousness that gave him hope of breaking through the "bottleneck."

Because after he killed the insect and took its crystal, the body of Yao Lingjiu directly transformed into extremely pure spiritual essence, which merged into his sea of consciousness.

In just that moment, Liu Zimo's spiritual power cultivation directly increased by one percent!

Yes, it's one percent!

Just this one devouring spirit insect is equivalent to nearly ten months of spiritual power enhancement for Liu Zimo!

How could he not be ecstatic about this?

Even though this devouring spirit insect is in its second stage, there may not be many of them.

But at least it is a hope.

Moreover, even if the second-stage devouring spirit insects are extremely rare, they can be replaced by the larvae form of the devouring spirit insects!

Anyway, they are all pests, and no matter how many Liu Zimo kills, he won't feel sorry.

And as long as he kills enough of them, there will inevitably be a qualitative change caused by quantitative change, and it will be much faster than his normal cultivation speed!

"Do we have to go to so many places?" Liuyi's expression changed slightly, and she asked with some reluctance and worry, "Can't we not go?"

Now there are disasters outside the city, and the crisis is everywhere. Who knows where a high-level monster will appear?

Liuyi is really worried that her eldest son will encounter danger outside.

"Dad, weren't you just saying that your son is invincible in the world and incredibly awesome? Why are you worried now?" Liu Zimo lightly teased his father and then said seriously,

"Don't worry, Dad!

Although your son dares not say that he is already invincible in the world, at least for now, there should be no one or monster on Earth that can hurt him!"

When he said this, Liu Zimo's divine power naturally circulated in his body.

This is the first time he has fully revealed his true cultivation realm in front of his family.

Swish!

Liuyi and Liuzihao both squinted their eyes at the same time, unable to look directly at Liu Zimo in front of them.

In their eyes and perception, Liu Zimo seemed like a god descending from the heavens, high above them. While feeling ashamed of themselves, they also had an intense sense of worship!

It was only because Liu Zimo timely retracted the sacred aura on his body that both Liuyi and Liuzihao didn't have to kneel and worship him on the spot.

This is the unique divine suppression of the Divine Power Realm!

It can directly deter martial artists or spiritual cultivators whose cultivation realms are far below him, forcing them to kneel and worship without any resistance or defiance!

"My son is indeed amazing!"

After coming to his senses from the influence of the divine aura, Liuyi couldn't help but give a thumbs up to his eldest son again.

Liuzihao was the same. Seeing his big brother, who was like a god descending to earth, all his worries disappeared.

Now, he was even a little worried for those monsters and opponents who were about to encounter his big brother.

Encountering such a strong and somewhat abnormal martial artist like his big brother, they, or rather, it, would be pitiful!
