C2125 Leaving alone a hundred years of hardships
He thought of himself as an ordinary person.
Now, we are all ordinary people.
Hearing the Empress of the Southern Phoenix's words, Jiang Yunfan's eyes lit up.
That's right!
This might have been a way of comprehending the Dao.
In the eyes of countless of people, the Sage realm stood at the top of the pyramid. They were high up in the sky, and they were unrivalled as Paragons. Even in Xiao Chen's heart, he would have some ideas about this point.
However, Empress of the Southern Phoenix's words woke him up.
It was as if he had been enlightened, allowing him to find his path of enlightenment.
Xiao Chen walked towards the Empress of the Southern Phoenix.
He looked at her with a smile on his face.
He tapped Empress of the Southern Phoenix on the forehead and said: "You are really the light on my path of cultivation."
It wouldn't be a bad thing to become an ordinary person if one were to unearth all of their fame and wealth.
On the contrary, it was much easier to comprehend the Dao.
This was equivalent to going through his own experience again.
He must have understood something from the very beginning.
The Empress of the Southern Phoenix snorted.
"Tsk."
She continued to walk in front, buying and buying. Xiao Chen also followed her.
After strolling for a day, the two of them brought back a large pile of things to the Supreme Heavenly Palace. The Empress of the Southern Phoenix gave each of them a portion, and then brought food for Su Lingxue to eat.
It was not that they did not like Murong Qianer and the others.
However, she had the personality of a little girl, so she was naturally able to negotiate with Su Lingxue the most.
The two were laughing and playing like good sisters.
Xiao Chen let her do as she pleased.
After all, this was her state of mind.
Shen Lei and the others were cultivating in seclusion, while the cutie was cultivating in the Eternity Warring Race. He was like an idle person who did nothing, and it was not that he did not cultivate, but that after his martial arts reached a certain realm, it was no longer simply absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, but instead, it was a type of comprehension.
He felt like he had gone past a thousand sails.
Xiao Chen was like this.
Right now, he could only improve his cultivation.
As for the realm, it could only be improved through comprehension.
While he was in the Saint realm, he had been roaming about, gaining insights and putting every bit of them in his heart.
There was a glimmer in his eyes.
He wandered among the crowd, between the mountains and the valleys, between the heaven and earth.
He had comprehended everything he could comprehend.
It was all for the sake of being able to find the essence within, then completing it in one go.
He did not seek to rapidly increase his cultivation.
He only hoped to be able to find a way for him to comprehend the Dao.
However, the Empress of the Southern Phoenix also said that there was no need to be anxious at the Saint realm, nor could there be any need to be anxious. Thus, Xiao Chen's anxious heart had gradually calmed down.
On this day, he walked out alone.
He didn't tell anyone, and he didn't bring anyone with him.
He then left alone.
No one knew where he had gone.
The people he was familiar with were no longer here. The Profound Sky Continent had undergone a change from one generation to another, and all the people he was once familiar with had turned to dust in the flow of time. However, this was his homeland, the place where he grew up in.
The history of the past is still there.
His memory was still clear. He had walked through many familiar places.
Ancient Kingdom of the Morning Sky, Blue Phoenix Academy, The Realm of the Ancient Kingdom, and the place he was born in, Nie clan.
There was also the tomb where his mother's ashes were buried.
Although Xiao Chen knew that the one buried underground was not his mother.
However, he still stayed there.
"Mother, can Chen'er stay here with you for a while? It's just the two of us." Xiao Chen removed the weeds from the grave that was covered in withered grass. This place had long since become unrecognizable after a hundred years. Xiao Chen spent a day cleaning the area around his grave with his own hands.
He sat in front of the grave and caressed the tombstone.
It was like being with his mother. He felt very warm.
"My true mother is in the Ancient Phoenix Sacred Domain, but you raised me and accompanied me for countless days and nights. It's just that my son has his own path to walk, so I haven't come to see you for a long time, hoping that mother won't be angry. Although I haven't come, this child has never forgotten about you." Xiao Chen said softly.
"Mother, are you and my Ancient Phoenix Saint's mother the same person, or what kind of relationship do you have? Chen'er seems to know that the reason why I've been cultivating so hard is to see you and stand in front of you. I'm looking at you, calling you mother, hugging you.
You took care of me when I was growing up, taught me how to read and write, taught me manners, taught me how to be a person.
No matter when, no matter who you are, I only know that you are my mother! "
Xiao Chen spoke in front of the grave, one word at a time. Sometimes he was envious and sometimes he smiled. It was as though there really was someone talking to him in front of him.
He built a cabin near the grave.
He lives here.
He would come out to bask in the sun every day and plant his own land, fruits and vegetables by the grave. When he was tired, he would sit at the grave and talk to his mother.
The sun rose and set.
Xiao Chen had completely transformed into an ordinary mortal.2
He gradually forgot about his own cultivation base.
Until one day, Xiao Chen fell asleep in front of the tombstone. After he fell asleep, he did not wake up again.
One day. Two days. Three days …
One month...
One year...
Ten years …
He leaned against the tombstone, smiled, and slept quietly.
During the spring, summer, autumn, and winter, wind, rain, and frost covered his body.
He stayed by his mother's grave, sleeping soundly.
After an unknown period of time, Xiao Chen's body gradually turned to stone. First it was his legs, then it reached his waist, and finally it reached the top of his head. In the end, he turned into a statue.
During the time that Xiao Chen disappeared, Shen Lei and the others came out of seclusion.
However, he received news of Xiao Chen's disappearance.
They searched all over the place, but couldn't find him.
Even the Empress of the Southern Phoenix with an unparalleled cultivation were not able to detect Xiao Chen's aura.
However, they believed that nothing would happen to Xiao Chen.
After all, with his current cultivation, it would be extremely difficult to kill him unless he was an expert of the Saint Dao of Limitless.
Therefore, they were all waiting.
Dozens of years had passed while he waited.
Shen Lei and the others waited for Xiao Chen to return as they cultivated. The Empress of the Southern Phoenix guarded Shen Lei, the two of them and guided them in their cultivation. Right now, the five of them were all in the sage realm, so their comprehension was the same.
A hundred years had passed since Xiao Chen left.
A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.
Shen Lei and the rest had made great progress, but just as the Southern Emperor had said, they were still standing at their original positions.
After all, it was extremely difficult to break through to this level.
And in Profound Sky Continent, in the span of a hundred years, on this day, a crack appeared on the stone statue …
