136: Chapter 136 Bloom, My Ordinary Life [Part 1]

The military camp frontline, the dungeon.

Inside the airtight dungeon, a young girl was bound by iron chains.

A glimmer of candlelight was casting a weak radiance on the wall in front of her.

Suddenly, the ground trembled, the candlelight flickered, and the cell constructed of Cyan Profound Stone suddenly cracked, the anchor points of the iron chains falling out of the walls on their own.

The young girl regained her freedom; although her hands and feet were still bound by iron chains, this was no longer a major problem.

Seeing her face full of joy as she looked at the cracked wall, she pressed her palms together to form a seal and whispered, "Immortal Path Secret Technique: Immortal Cauldron!"

In an instant, an Immortal Cauldron appeared before her. The Immortal Cauldron immediately dissolved the iron chains on her feet, and she immediately stood upon the Immortal Cauldron, broke out of the prison, and soared into the air.

When she reached the Surface, she immediately saw a Fairy Dragon radiating black flames fighting against six demigods in the void.

In the distance of the battlefield, a black dragon carried several young girls as it circled in the void, gazing in her direction.

"I'm sorry, I'm late," Yuan Qing murmured.

After speaking, she steered the Immortal Cauldron and charged directly toward the several dragon slaying crossbows not far away.

Boom~

The Immortal Cauldron smashed down, directly blasting the dragon slaying crossbows that were charging up.

In an instant, the entire military camp erupted with soaring light, and a terrifying energy exploded, swallowing up more than half of the camp.

She also soared into the sky at the first opportunity, flying in the direction of the black dragon.

Soon, she arrived at Long Daoyi's side.

When she saw Ye Qingzhu on Long Daoyi, her expression changed repeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I'm late!"

Yuan Qing's face was filled with self-reproach.

Although this really couldn't be blamed on her.

Before the incident, she was suddenly summoned by Luo Yan, and then her divine power was sealed by Luo Yan, trapping her in the dungeon.

It wasn't until Ye Qingzhu used Immortal King Possession and smashed the military camp with the Immortal Cauldron that her seal was broken, allowing her to regain her freedom.

Ye Qingzhu looked at Yuan Qing, who had returned to her original appearance, a hint of grievance in her dazed eyes, and whispered, "Master!"

Yuan Qing went over, gently stroking her hair, and comforted her: "I'm here, don't cry. You did well, don't worry, everything will be fine."

Although she comforted her this way, she knew in her heart that for them, it might be difficult to have a good outcome today.

Of course, she dared to appear here because she had come with the determination to die.

She glanced at the black dragon beneath her and said, "Senior Brother, you've improved again. Have you already reached S-Rank?"

The black dragon beneath her nodded immediately, and Long Daoyi's voice also came out.

"Barely caught a glimpse of the path."

Hearing this, Yuan Qing sighed: "Sigh, if given some more time, achieving demigod status probably wouldn't be difficult, but unfortunately..."

Yuan Qing suddenly felt a bit sentimental.

If Master, Martial Uncle, and Martial Aunt hadn't left, perhaps they wouldn't have to face this predicament.

Children without parents to protect them really get bullied terribly.

But she also knew that thinking about these things now was useless.

She took a deep breath, raised her eyes to look at the approaching Head of the Lin Family and the group of Guardians, and her gaze immediately became sharp.

The dragon slaying crossbows were destroyed by her, so there was no need to worry for now; the demigods were currently fighting with Tang Juan.

Then, the Head of the Lin Family and these other family heads were the enemies they needed to face right now.

There were twelve people in total, including the four family heads and the Guardians, while on the military side, there were Luo Feng and his son Luo Heng, totaling fourteen people.

Among these fourteen, only Luo Heng was the weakest, but he still possessed combat power not less than A-Rank.

And on their side, there were only five people.

Among them, Long Daoyi had just entered S-Rank, and his strength was the highest among these people.

He alone could contend against half of them.

The remaining few would need to be faced by them.

Her combat power, at its absolute peak, was B-Rank peak, and Ye Qingzhu was currently in bad condition and unable to fight.

w's strength was unknown, and Tian Yingying had made some progress recently, reaching C-Rank, which could almost be ignored.

Yes, C-Rank strength in a battle of this level could almost be ignored.

Therefore, she and w needed to face at least one A-Rank.

Even the weakest, Luo Heng, put quite a bit of pressure on her.

Just as she was calculating the combat power of both sides, she heard Tian Yingying suddenly say timidly: "Master, can I try to fight Luo Heng?"

Everyone paused, looking at her with some surprise.

Everyone instinctively wanted to refuse!

Because the strength gap between her and Luo Heng was too vast; going would be equivalent to sending herself to death.

But immediately, they realized that at this moment, they had no other options.

If she could briefly hold Luo Heng back, it would also relieve quite a bit of pressure on the others.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, Long Daoyi said: "Then you must be careful. If you can't handle it, retreat to my side immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Tian Yingying's face immediately showed joy, and she nodded repeatedly: "Mm-hmm!"

"Then Luo Feng belongs to me!"

Yuan Qing said in a deep voice.

Luo Feng was a solid A-Rank, and the gap between her and Luo Feng was also extremely huge.

But there was no other choice right now.

Because everyone's strength was about the same, it didn't matter who she chose.

w's gaze was cold and condensed, scanning back and forth over the remaining twelve people, but instead of making a choice, he asked: "How many can you handle?"

Long Daoyi thought for a few seconds and replied: "You deal with the two Guardians of the Xu Family; I'll handle the rest!"

As a fresh S-Rank, Long Daoyi was more than capable of handling A-Ranks.

But one against ten, most people really wouldn't dare to boast like that.

Long Daoyi had no other choice either; at this juncture, except for Yuan Qing, who was his junior sister, everyone else was his junior.

As the only elder present, he had to shoulder this responsibility, and even if it meant fighting with all his might, he had to try. Furthermore, these people were all his enemies, the people he had to kill.

And he specifically assigned the two Guardians of the Xu Family to w, which also had a deeper meaning.

Because the Xu Family members were fast but had weak attacks; even if w couldn't win, he wouldn't be in mortal danger for a short time.

"I... I can also fight one!"

At this moment, Ye Songtao, who hadn't spoken the whole time, spoke up.

He was also full of grief at the moment, his eyes streaming with tears.

His wife was being besieged by many demigods, his daughter had overloaded herself using an immortal technique and was now in an inexplicable state, and he also wanted to fight, rather than standing on the side like a useless person, only able to watch his loved ones get hurt.

However, Long Daoyi immediately rejected it.

"Mr. Ye, I understand your feelings, but right now, you need to take care of Ye Qingzhu!"

Ye Songtao's breath hitched, and he looked at Ye Qingzhu.

At this moment, Ye Qingzhu was still bleeding from her seven orifices, her aura fluctuating between strong and weak, as if she were in some kind of inexplicable state, which was heart-wrenching to see.

Ye Songtao didn't speak again.

At this time, the several great families were about to close in.

Long Daoyi let out a low growl, his body shook, and he immediately flew toward the Surface below.

Finally, he landed on a vast plain. The plain was very large, and the surroundings were full of strange rocks and peculiar trees, making it a good battlefield.

After he landed, Luo Feng and his son, as well as the people from the several great families, also immediately followed.

Long Daoyi transformed, turning back into his human form, and stood in front of everyone.

His long hair was like a waterfall, his black clothes danced with the wind, and he was terrifyingly silent.

Luo Feng felt the aura on him, his eyes narrowed, and he whispered: "S-Rank!"

The others also changed their expressions upon hearing this.

They were all A-Rank, and having to face an S-Rank put a lot of pressure on them, especially the several family heads.

They had deep grudges with Long Daoyi, and this battle was unavoidable.

However, at this moment, Long Daoyi sneered: "Hmph, everyone, trust you've been well. It's time to resolve the grievances between us."

"I won't bully you for being weak either. You, you, you, you... get over here and die!"

Long Daoyi directly called out names, pointing out all ten people he wanted to kill.

As he spoke, he walked to the side step by step, carving out a battlefield by himself.

The several family heads and Guardians were called out by him, and each of their faces looked extremely ugly.

One reason was that their strength was inferior to Long Daoyi's, and the other was because of Long Daoyi's humiliation of them.

A murderous intent erupted in their eyes, and with a cold snort, they actually walked out of the crowd.

Ten against one, they actually felt a bit more confident.

"Hmph, even though you have now reached S-Rank, wanting to fight ten of us by yourself is a bit too overconfident!"

The one who spoke was none other than the Lin Family Head, Lin Zongming.

Long Daoyi couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him and lunged over directly, his murderous intent surging.

There was nothing to say between them; only blood could wash away the anger in his heart.

Seeing that the battle had already begun on Long Daoyi's side, w did not delay, stretching his wings first and lunging toward the remaining two Guardians of the Xu Family.

Yuan Qing also immediately rushed toward Luo Feng.

At this point, only Tian Yingying and Luo Heng were standing face to face.

Tian Yingying looked at the tall, handsome, and cold young man, her small hands constantly twisting the corner of her clothes, her heart incredibly nervous.

From the time she awakened until now, she had never even truly fought anyone.

So at this moment, she was both excited and nervous, while also carrying some thrill and fear.

This was an extremely complex emotion.

However, in the next second, Luo Heng opposite her spoke first: "You should step back; I don't want to fight you!"

As he spoke, his gaze turned directly to other places, completely not taking Tian Yingying seriously.

Also, after all, Tian Yingying was only a C-Rank Awakened One and looked extremely weak.

And although he had just entered A-Rank, fighting 100 C-Ranks would be easy.

Because in the eyes of an A-Rank, a C-Rank was really too weak, so weak that it was like an adult bullying a child.

So Luo Heng didn't care about Tian Yingying at all.

Tian Yingying's face flushed, feeling a bit aggrieved, but more importantly, stubborn.

"I know I'm weak, and you don't want to waste time on me, but... I also can't let you go help others!"

As she spoke, Tian Yingying backhanded and grabbed a handful of seeds from her Storage Ring, scattering them toward Luo Heng.

Seeing those seeds, they began to grow rapidly as they flew toward Luo Heng, instantly turning into magical plants.

They were not completely in plant form; some plants actually grew hands and feet like infants. They could run on the ground and could also burrow into the soil to travel, which was very eerie.

Luo Heng looked at these magical plants, his eyes full of surprise, and his gaze toward Tian Yingying changed.

Because he had never seen anyone use this method of attack before.

Soon, these plants arrived in front of Luo Heng; some extended vines to entangle him, while others burrowed out from the ground, using pairs of tender little hands to grab Luo Heng's shoes and ankles, intending to trap him.

But they were immediately destroyed by the divine power erupting from Luo Heng.

"Your attack is magical, but... it's too weak."

"If you could reach A-Rank, you would be the most powerful enemy I have ever encountered!"

Luo Heng said calmly.

He could feel the powerful potential from these plants.

But for now, he could ignore the interference and entanglement of these little things.

After all, the gap between C-Rank and A-Rank was as wide as a chasm, and it was definitely not something these little things could bridge.

However, Tian Yingying didn't pay attention to that, still continuously taking out many seeds from her Storage Ring and constantly scattering them toward Luo Heng.

In just a minute or two, these plants were all around Luo Heng, numbering in the tens of thousands!

Between her and Luo Heng, a dense patch of grass appeared.

Countless plants intertwined together, instantly forming a ground net.

Immediately after, a magical scene appeared.

Seeing these plants suddenly start to intertwine and stack up, like a human pyramid, they instantly formed a giant... plant? Creature? that was three meters tall.

Luo Heng didn't even know how to define this thing.

Because it was a humanoid creature completely composed of plants. To call it a humanoid creature, its lower body was completely attached to the ground, constantly absorbing nutrients from the soil to strengthen itself.

In just a short while, it reached a shocking B-Rank, and finally stopped at the peak of B-Rank.

Even so, it was enough to shock Luo Heng.

"You really make me look at you in a new light. If I haven't guessed wrong, this... summon of yours is based on your own strength and can be one rank higher than your own."

"You are currently at the peak of C-Rank, so it is at the peak of B-Rank."

"If you can reach the peak of B-Rank, then it can reach the peak of A-Rank!"

"If... in the future you can break through to demigod, then it will transcend demigods??"

Thinking of this, a divine light bloomed in Luo Heng's eyes.

Above demigod, that is something all races dream of.

Yet unexpectedly, such a difficult dream to achieve was accomplished by this plain-looking young girl in front of him by taking a different path?

Shock!

Luo Heng's heart was extremely shocked.

At this moment, he also put away his previous disregard and began to treat Tian Yingying seriously.

Even though this summon of hers still couldn't cause effective damage to him.

Because there was still a huge gap between the peak of B-Rank and A-Rank.

However, just this intelligence and talent were enough for him to treat her seriously.
