Chapter 446: Chapter 29 New Interpretation

“Is everyone incomplete?”

If anyone else had said that, Zhu Xiao would have thought they were hysterical, indulging in wild fantasy.

How could everyone be incomplete!

But this statement was made by Wang Sheng, whose strength was terrifyingly great, someone even she as a Martial Saint couldn’t see through; that made it necessary to deeply reflect on it.

“What did you discover?”

“The infant from the Ye family has a Spiritual Body different from everyone else. I initially thought it was a problem with the infant, that she was special. However, after examining your Spiritual Body, I found it to be perfecting. If I’m not wrong, once the perfection is complete, your Spiritual Body will be the same as that female infant’s.”

Even Wang Sheng found this difficult to believe after discovering it.

What level was Zhu Xiao at?

One could say she was the strongest beside him, capable of easily killing that infant with just a glance.

But the reality was that Zhu Xiao’s Spiritual Body was gravitating towards that of the infant’s.

Initially, Wang Sheng thought it was because Zhu Xiao had broken through to become a Martial Saint, and the heavens and earth had sensed it, making that infant somewhat special.

But he soon recalled the idea of “completion” that occurred to Zhu Xiao.

This idea, Wang Sheng had not paid attention to initially, until he encountered the infant and then he realized.

“Completion” rather than “addition.”

“Completion” suggests that something was missing from the beginning; “addition” means something is being added to something already whole.

Comparing Zhu Xiao and the infant then…

Perhaps Zhu Xiao’s Spiritual Body moving towards the infant’s was to complete what was originally missing.

Wang Sheng’s expression was complex, this discovery completely different from his previous inference.

“I don’t know why the infant appeared, but my judgment is likely correct.”

Zhu Xiao naturally knew what this meant, but it was still somewhat hard for her to believe.

“Is there any basis for this, because if this is true, that would be extraordinary!”

“Of course there is…” Wang Sheng shared his findings, and eventually added, “I once heard a saying roughly meaning ‘Humans are incomplete.’ I thought it was due to being robbed of destiny, but now it seems that might not be the case…”

“Humans are incomplete,” Wang Sheng had learned this phrase long ago from the steward of Stargazing Valley and the old Scholar.

After knowing the complete phrase, he hadn’t delved much into it, only aware that there was something wrong with the Human Race, later thinking it referred to destiny.

But today, seeing that infant, he realized his judgment might have been wrong.

Zhu Xiao understood the gravity of “extraordinary.”

Wang Sheng had observed many Spiritual Bodies, but everyone’s was just like Zhu Xiao’s before her breakthrough.

“If this is true, it means the Spiritual Bodies of all people in the world are incomplete…” With this conclusion in mind, Zhu Xiao felt extremely unsettled, even somewhat frightened.

“No one is complete, no wonder I never noticed it before,” Wang Sheng’s heart was not much better than Zhu Xiao’s, “among a bunch of wrong answers, how could you possibly find the right one.”

Wang Sheng himself had problematic origins, so when comparing Spiritual Bodies, he never used himself as a reference against others.

As a result, the objects he examined and compared were always other Martial Artists.

But apart from him, everyone else’s Spiritual Bodies were incomplete, among a group of incomplete individuals, how could he possibly find any difference.

Simply put, he had been using errors to validate errors; he could never possibly identify the problem.

“Most likely, the steward of Stargazing Valley and the old Scholar both discovered something wrong with their Spiritual Body after their breakthroughs, hence they mentioned that ‘Humans are incomplete,’…”

The steward of Stargazing Valley and the old Scholar were different from Wang Sheng.

Since Wang Sheng’s special Spiritual Body couldn’t be used as a reference, but those two, being like other people in this world, only after their breakthroughs was their Spiritual Body completed, did they realize the problem.

“It looks like, both were Spirit Cultivators!” Only Spirit Cultivators could discover the uniqueness of their Spiritual Body after advancing past the level of Great Grandmaster.

“What a pity…”

Wang Sheng’s thoughts were numerous, and he also felt sorry for the passing of these two.

If these two had not died, their achievements would have been no less than Zhu Xiao’s, perhaps even more powerful.

Both Stargazing Valley Master and the old Scholar broke through the limitations imposed by the Heavenly Father.

“What a pity about what?” Zhu Xiao regained her composure after hearing Wang Sheng’s last two words.

“It’s a pity that such talents could not exert their abilities before they passed away!”

Wang Sheng became even more determined to abolish the Spirit World.

Although the calamity of the Heavenly Father had been removed, the Spirit World still restrained everyone; without the restrictions of the Spirit World, how many more people like Zhu Xiao would emerge?

Individuals like Zhu Xiao could provide a great deal of Pure Spiritual Power to his Spirit World!

Damn!

Zhu Xiao, of course, didn’t know how much Wang Sheng was thinking; her focus still remained on the issue of Spiritual Bodies.

“How should we handle this situation, should we act as if it doesn’t exist, or what?”

This issue seemed enormous, but in reality, everyone had lived in such a state for who knows how long. Yet, on the small scale, completing the Spiritual Body was something that significantly increased Zhu Xiao’s lifespan, its impact was tremendous.

Thus, Zhu Xiao was a bit troubled.

“How to handle it? Just let nature take its course!”

Zhu Xiao fell silent.

For a long while—

“It seems I have thought too much!”

It seemed they had no way to resolve the issue, thinking too much was useless.

However, Wang Sheng then said, “But there may still be a turning point, when all nations transform into a great unity, the influence of the first dynasty diminishes, the problem might resolve itself.”

“Does this issue have something to do with the first dynasty?”

“That’s the only possibility, in fact, I suspect your breakthrough in strength, your increase in lifespan, and the appearance of that infant, are all because the influence of the first dynasty has been reduced, the actions of the Taiping Sect and the Border Army are already effective!”

Although Zhu Xiao had just emerged from seclusion, she was also aware of recent happenings.

Knowing about the actions of the Taiping Sect recently, if that was indeed the case—

“The Destiny Dynasty system really is a poisonous plague!” Anger tinged Zhu Xiao’s voice.

Wang Sheng glanced at Zhu Xiao, knowing if she found out that the Destiny Dynasty had stifled the martial arts world for thousands of years, she would probably be even more furious.

“Don’t worry, the issue is almost resolved, your path of cultivation will be smooth and unimpeded from now on!”

With the Spirit World lifted, there would be no more obstacles to the cultivation in this world.

Wang Sheng had thought Zhu Xiao would be pleased to hear this, but he could clearly sense her melancholy.

“The path of cultivation smooth and unimpeded? Wang Sheng, do you know why I want to take that infant as my disciple?”

“Isn’t it because of destiny?”

“That’s part of it, but more importantly, I want someone to inherit my mantle; for the next breakthrough, I’m not confident I’ll survive…”
