Chapter 95: The Authority of the Heavenly Dao, Departure, the Thunder Spirit Fruit

The authority of the Heavenly Dao? Your heart shook violently. This was far more useful than any spiritual treasure or immortal artifact!

The Old Village Chief glanced at the chaos in the void, then pulled Little Nannan from his embrace and placed both your hands tightly together.

“Things have gone somewhat beyond expectations. Little Nannan can only be left in your care now.” The Old Village Chief looked at you, very serious.

Your gaze was firm as you looked at the Old Village Chief and promised, “As long as I don’t die, no one will be able to harm Little Nannan!”

The Old Village Chief patted your shoulder and smiled. “This old man believes in you.”

“Grandpa Village Chief, Nannan doesn’t want to leave you.” Little Nannan spoke with reluctance.

“Didn’t Little Nannan always want to go out and see the world?”

Little Nannan shook her head. “Nannan doesn’t want to anymore. Nannan only wants to stay by Grandpa Village Chief’s side forever!”

The Old Village Chief reached out and wiped the tear stains from Little Nannan’s face. Looking at her eyes already cried red, he comforted her. “Be good, Nannan. Go with your big brother and see the outside world. Once Grandpa finishes handling things here, I’ll come find you!”

Little Nannan said nothing, only reached out her small hand and hooked her pinky around the Old Village Chief’s.

The Old Village Chief smiled helplessly, then said to you, “Go. You should leave too. Any later and you won’t be able to.”

“Mm!” You held Little Nannan’s hand, took one last look at the entire village, and fled into the distance without looking back.

On both you and Little Nannan, the Old Village Chief had left a divine ability each, capable of protecting you on your safe departure.

The Old Village Chief watched your departing backs, sighed silently, then shot into the sky and rejoined the battlefield.

Beneath the void battlefield, the power protecting the village vanished. The once peaceful village was completely annihilated in the aftermath of the great battle.

As she fled, Little Nannan turned back to look at the village’s location. It was pitch black, already merged into the void.

Looking at Little Nannan, who had cried herself into a mess of tears, you slowly stopped, and let out a low sigh.

Squatting down, you directly hoisted the grief-stricken Little Nannan onto your back and quickly departed.

Thanks to the unbearable gravity in the chicken-raising courtyard, your speed had been drastically increased.

But the entire void battlefield was far too vast, and you were in the core region. Escaping the void battlefield was easier said than done.

You began a night-long sprint with Little Nannan on your back. In the void battlefield, you encountered far too many. Powerful, incomparably powerful Void Creatures.

You determined they were at least Body Integration stage, even Tribulation Transcendence stage existences.

Were it not for the divine ability the Old Village Chief had left on you, you simply could not have survived. You would have long since died in the mouth of some Void Creature.

In the first month of fleeing, Little Nannan fell into a deep sleep from excessive grief.

You ran all the way in the direction indicated by the token.

Half a year later, you finally escaped the void battlefield’s core region and arrived at its inner perimeter. Here, Return-to-Void realm Void Creatures and Remnant Souls were everywhere.

Here, you even saw human cultivators!

You only watched the Void Refinement realm human cultivators from afar, and did not approach.

You knew that in unknown lands, humans were sometimes a hundred times more dangerous than Void Creatures!

Little Nannan woke from her deep sleep. Seeing you in a state of utter exhaustion, she whispered, “Big Brother, let’s rest for a bit.”

“Alright.” After half a year of nonstop sprinting, you were long since exhausted. This was a good chance to recuperate.

You found a relatively safe place, set down Little Nannan from your back, and then took out the things the chicken-raiser had left you.

A full five hundred chickens, at least Spirit Transformation stage, each possessing a trace of the Phoenix Bloodline!

These chickens had already been cleaned by the chicken-raiser. You took them out, cooked them, and could eat them directly.

Then, you took out a large pot, wheat grains, wheat stalks, and a jar of wine!

Little Nannan sat to the side, watching you take out so many things, her little mouth hanging wide open, a pair of big eyes just staring at you.

“Big Brother, you’ve cleaned out the entire village.”

“Heh heh, isn’t it because Big Sister and Auntie were afraid we wouldn’t eat enough?” You scratched your head somewhat embarrassedly.

An hour later, you and Little Nannan began eating heartily.

With a body that had reached the Spirit Transformation stage, you could digest even an entire chicken.

“Little Nannan, don’t eat too much, or you’ll burst your little belly!”

“No I won’t! Even if Nannan eats all of this, there won’t be a problem!” Little Nannan puffed up angrily as she looked at you.

“Oh?” You were somewhat surprised. You had always treated Little Nannan as a child.

But ever since witnessing the strength of the entire village, you had grown curious about Little Nannan’s strength.

Born in a village crowded with big shots, how could Little Nannan be an ordinary person?

“Little Nannan, can you tell Big Brother how strong you are?” you asked curiously.

Little Nannan put down her bowl and chopsticks, thought seriously for a moment, and said, “Enn, someone like Big Brother, I can fight ten of.”

Hearing this, your face darkened. You couldn’t even beat Little Nannan? That was far too embarrassing!

The chicken in your mouth suddenly didn’t taste good anymore.

Little Nannan looked at you with curiosity. “What’s wrong with Big Brother? Even though Big Brother is very weak, Nannan won’t despise you.”

Looking at Little Nannan’s innocent expression, you sighed inwardly.

Having eaten and drunk your fill, your strength returned to its peak state, and you continued fleeing with Little Nannan.

One year later, you arrived at the void battlefield’s outer perimeter. Here, the highest cultivation Void Creatures were all basically Spirit Transformation stage.

With your Spirit Transformation stage body, plus Little Nannan who could fight ten of you, your situation was temporarily safe.

“This is… the Thunder Spirit Fruit!” You saw a tree rooted in the void, and on the tree grew three fruits, each wreathed in the power of thunder and lightning.

You did not act rashly. First, you observed the area around the tree, and discovered two mid-stage Spirit Transformation Void Creatures. The two Void Creatures were in a standoff, clearly both wanting these Thunder Spirit Fruits.

“Little Nannan, you stay here. Big Brother will be right back.” You whispered your instructions to Little Nannan.

Little Nannan nodded. “Big Brother, go with peace of mind. Nannan will take good care of herself.”

You circulated the Breath-Concealing Art with all your strength and slowly began to approach.

You stopped not far from the tree. Before you could even act, a long spear suddenly appeared, tearing through the void and stabbing directly into one Void Creature’s body!

Your heart blared with alarms. There was someone else nearby!
