Chapter 110: The Qi Powered Asteroid
Across space, a griffin the size of a skyscraper held Lu Zheng in its claws as it stared at him.
The griffin had golden feathers on its head and white fur covered the rest of its body. Its majestic body obscured the sun as it stood mid-air.
With a flap of its wings, it crossed hundreds of metres, zooming off into the horizon as it held the struggling Lu Zheng.
"Don't bother struggling, you can't escape" The griffin said without paying attention to Lu Zheng.
Fierce winds crashed at Lu Zheng but he cultivated wind path, they couldn't affect him.
Lu Zheng attempted to urge his bloodline power but failed. The blood god demon crystal had drawn most of his refined fleshy energy.
His bloodline power was zero at the moment.
The griffin that held him swiftly zoomed across numerous mountain ranges till it reached a special area.
A plain with a shiny river that divided it into two spread below as five mountains formed a hollow circle at the centre of the plain.
The griffin did not stop as it tucked its wings. Swiftly, it descended into the space enclosed by the five mountains.
Lu Zheng could sense the ambient Qi becoming denser as the griffin descended rapidly.
Just when Lu Zheng thought they would hit the ground, the griffin dropped him and disappeared.
Standing where the griffin was supposed to be was a man wearing scholarly robes.
His pupils were black and his black hair was curly. A serious expression was drawn on his face as he faced Lu Zheng: "Follow me"
Lu Zheng nodded as he tailed after the man.
~A transformation path martial practitioner? I never thought Earth would have such a profound path~
Transformation path was discovered by Reverend Divine Prime Jade who cultivated it to the very peak of cultivation.
Once, the Reverend had explained that transformation path was very simple. If you want to fly like the birds, grow your own wings. If you want to swim like the fishes, grow your own fins.
The very essence of transformation path was transforming into other beings and creatures to possess their unique traits.
"You have done well Ose" A wizened man spoke slowly. It was Old man Gu Li.
Lu Zheng stared at Old man Gu Li and Teni who stood beside him. He could sense that their cultivation bases were extremely high but he did not know to what extent.
Ose nodded and kept on walking, leading Lu Zheng to Old man Gu Li.
At this point, the ambient Qi was so dense that Lu Zheng felt like he was swimming in Qi.
His mind had become faster and his eyesight grew sharper. He could see the details of Old man Gu Li to the smallest pore.
He could even see the red rock that stood majestically behind Old man Gu Li.
"Spectral Lightning Demon Venerable" Old man Gu Li smiled. "We meet again"
Lu Zheng was stunned but he quickly controlled himself.
Spectral Lightning Demon Venerable was his dao title in his previous life. He did not expect to be referred to with it again after dying once.
He gazed sternly at Old man Gu Li and was unable to recall the man.
Lu Zheng cupped his fist and bowed: "Senior"
"You must be wondering why we brought you here" Old man Gu Li smiled as turned his gaze to the red rock that pierced the clouds behind them.
Teni and Ose also followed Old man Gu Li's gaze as they stared at the asteroid.
They knew the story of the asteroid all too well.
Ten millennia ago, the Qi powered asteroid had entered Earth's atmosphere and struck this very ground, wiping out every form of technology.
From it, the first traces of Qi flowed before Earth began to produce Qi in its own atmosphere.
Teni and Ose had spent many years studying the asteroid.
When they began to cultivate, they were unable to comprehend its strength. When they reached the Sky realm and became the first flying humans, they still couldn't comprehend its strength.
They had cultivated till they became the strongest humans on Earth with third tier and second tier of Eternal realm cultivation base respectively.
Despite that, they still couldn't comprehend the asteroid's strength.
Old man Gu Li had come from the main world and explained to them that the journey of the Dao was still long and that they had only begun.
That was the only way they could console themselves. To the rest of the world, they were the pinnacle of strength but they couldn't even touch a single rock.
That was why, when Old man Gu Li told them that today, they would understand the origin of the asteroid that changed their lives, they suspended all of their works and immediately came.
Ose had even played chauffer for a Void Passage realm ant because Old man Gu Li said his presence was essential.
Teni and Ose gazed at Lu Zheng whose attention was glued to the asteroid. Without even willing it, his legs began to move till he was right before the asteroid.
