Unfathomable Senior

Chapter 393

“Please, take a break, it has already been a week, you look pale…”

“I’m fine but you might be right… if the enemies come I won’t be able to offer them much resistance like this…”

A somewhat shriveled-up Zhang Dong was looking at his lovely wife Zhang Liena. She had come bearing some homemade cooking with spirit energy-packed foods.

“Elders, we will postpone the transcendence till tomorrow, I must rest.”

Zhang Dong looked at a smaller group of elders that was composed of less than twenty. He had been working hard on helping most of them pass into the nascent soul stage but he was slowly reaching his limit. The white seed that now powered his cultivation gave him a lot of energy but it also had its limits.

“We understand Patriarch, we will await your return.”

All of them were still in the pocket dimension. After blowing up several mountain tops with the nascent soul realm boost they decided to set up an open-air version. He would just sit with the cultivator in the middle of a special formation on an altar and boost them up.

The process was not really that hard as somehow his new cultivation allowed him to forcefully insert his dao into people. This Dao would mix with his target’s cultivation and fill out the holes in it.

He wasn’t sure why but the Dao Seed inside him had those properties. It was able to boost the lesser Nascent Souls to flourishing and only required a set of spiritual energy. Through this, he was already able to create thirty new nascent soul elders from the core formation experts that they brought here.

They were still only early stage cultivators but their foundation was solid. Thanks to the system’s cleansing feature and the high grade cultivation methods that their sect possessed, the elders would be much stronger than regular nascent soul masters.

They would be able to rival middle stage nascent soul masters in a one-on-one battle. Then due to the sheer number, they would be able to team up in formation attacks to compete with stronger foes.

“Thank you, whatever would I do without you… but uh… you don’t need to feed me yourself…”

Zhang Dong had returned outside the dimensional regalia. With the castle that they lived in having been destroyed and replaced by a metallic fortress of cannons, they found a different villa to stay in for now. At this very moment, he had his wife sitting in his lap while trying to feed him a piece of fruit.

“Yes I do!”

Without wanting to argue about this he opened wide and the airplane made its way into his mouth. He chomped down on the sweet treat and started chewing.

“Now me! I want to feed daddy like a baby too!”

He looked to the other side and there was his almost seven year old daughter. She had another fruit in her hand and was holding it out with some chopsticks. With a smile on his face, he just nodded and opened up to get fed.

While the two girls were all over him, the other male from the family remained seated away from the group. Zhang Dong could see him peeking out from the corner of the eye as if he wanted to say something but the moment he turned his gaze to meet his son’s eyes, he averted it.

It seemed that his wife and oldest child had become quite clingy. Whenever he went they were there. If he wanted to go into the garden to meditate, they would plop down next to him and do the same.

If he wanted to eat, they would try to feed them. If he wanted to put some clothes on, they would be there to pick out the right robe for him to wear. He would not even get peace in the bathroom as they would start to bang on the door if he locked it.

While he liked that his family was showing him love and affection it was starting to get annoying. He needed to recover his spiritual energy to push his elders to the next level as their life depended on it.

“Daddy has had enough for now, how about you go play with your brother.”

He petted his daughter on the head while pointing over to Zhang Jun. The moment Zhang Xiu saw her younger brother she pouted a bit.

“Jun, why are you still there, you are being rude!”

She charged off the couch that the three were sitting on and started chasing after her younger brother.

“They sure are energetic…”

While the small girl continued to chase her brother and he continued to run away, Liena still remained on top of his lap. He was finding her childish behavior quite cute but for things, to last they needed to get stronger.

“That Soaring Dragon Sect… what are they doing… they should have tried something by now…”

After a moment of silence between the two, he decided to speak out. The Soaring Dragon Sect was a big problem that required solving. Since Wang Long’s appearance already a week had passed and in this week he was able to strengthen his sect to new heights.Even though they all expected the giant sect to react in some way, they didn’t. There was no declaration of war, they didn’t try to get the other middle sized sects involved in their struggle nor did they send anyone to make any demands.

“It is unbecoming of them… did something happen? You seem to know that man called Wang Long, did he perhaps come from that other world you mentioned before?”

“Yes, he did but I’m not sure I can talk him out of this anymore….”

His wife was already aware of his otherworlder status as he had come clean to her while the first child was on the way. While that time he kept it vague she knew Zhang Dong’s true name which was Matthew.

At this point in time, Matt didn’t think that his fellow earthling would be able to see the error of his ways. He was convinced that this was some kind of virtual reality experience in some kind of supercomputer. On the other hand, he knew that there was more to this than a simple game.

There were many other worlds that he had seen as he tumbled through that rift in space in time. He had only visited one of them but it was enough to get the general idea of what was happening here. The question was why did these words place people from earth on them just to give them a cheat system.

“That’s fine with me, let us not give him a swift death!”

Zhang Dong’s eyes jumped up a bit as he noticed that his wife was clearly still mad. He wasn’t sure what she was thinking but probably being almost forcefully taken by some random person was not something a prideful cultivator woman like her took lightly.

“It would probably be better to get rid of him when we get the chance, I’m not sure if it will be that easy to get rid of him.”

His Ai Bob was still silent about the reason for this. The only clue he had to figure this out was the strange person he saw when he absorbed the first cube-shaped nucleus. He burned through almost all of the cubes he received from the other world so he needed a recharge.

‘I wonder if I could go check that place out for some answers… but is now a good time for it?’

He thought of the place that started this all, the place where he became untethered from the main system. It was the strange secret ground that he almost died in. It was still a mystery to him and there was still that large door that he never visited.

With the demise of the dark palm sect, he would now be able to go check it out. Even though it was in the vicinity of the other sects he was strong enough to force his way there.

He was brought on to speed about the other medium sized sects after he returned. The Limitless Sword Society had lost its leader and had been declining for a while now. The other sects saw them as an easier target and were forcing them back into their mainlands.

On the other hand, his own United Element Sect remained strong. Word of his disappearance was only getting out recently but now he could show himself again to keep everyone at bay.

He wanted to pay that secret ground a visit. Now with Bob with him, he might be able to figure out some things when he got there. Some answers and also some helpful items could be behind that large gate.

With his current strength, he might be able to get through whatever was inside. The biggest problem would be opening it back up. His sect was now much stronger so they would probably be able to get through those old monsters and tower defense stage without much of a problem if he explained the rules.

The question was if he would even need to go that far. There could be ways to get around this trial phase as he already had gone through it before.

“You are too soft my husband, such demons need to be punished! He even murdered one of his own sect elders just to flee, how could such a person be the next Patriarch.”

“Hm?… yes how could he… wait…”

While thinking about the secret ground his wife continued to talk. She brought up the murder of that elder Tong that happened. Zhang Dong knew that he did it for spirit points but what if there was more to it now?

“Wait… the Soaring Dragon Sect has been quiet for some time right?”

“Yes? Our spies are unable to confirm anything, the areas around the main city are being rightly guarded so they weren’t able to slip by.”

He started to get a bad premonition. As Wang Long has already slain one elder for points, what if he decided to continue with the trend? While the system mostly worked as a cash shop it was also able to directly increase one’s cultivation. What better place to get points than at a massive sect with many nascent soul masters, treasures, and beast alike?

“That bastard wouldn’t… right?”

Zhang Dong mumbled to himself while getting up. If he was right with his theory the person that he had thought a week ago might be going through a massive strength increase. While he was trying to increase his sect’s all-around strength the enemy went for a different approach.

“He wouldn’t? Is there something wrong?”

“I don’t know yet… I need to talk to Zhang Kuo!”
