200: A promise of the heart, to participate in the Ten Nations Competition

Ye Liting finally opened her eyes, and what greeted her was the heavily wounded Ye Kong.

She could barely believe her eyes.

After she contracted the illness of Divine Meridian Eruption, ever since her parting with Ye Kong at the Ye Manor, she had been sealed here by the God Ancestor.

At that time, Ye Liting even thought that was her last meeting with Ye Kong.

The only people she saw afterwards were her elder brother Ye Yuanfeng and her elder sister Ye Qingge.

However, she always believed that Ye Kong would come to find her.

Perhaps she would have already died by then, but she had no doubt about Ye Kong's promise to her.

But now, opening her eyes, Ye Kong had actually appeared before her.

And she was still alive.

Was this really not a dream?

Ye Liting laboriously raised her hand, wanting to caress Ye Kong's face.

Ye Kong quickly took Ye Liting's hand and placed it against his face.

"Liting! You're awake!"

Looking at Ye Kong's moved expression, Ye Liting's hand also felt the warmth from Ye Kong's face.

At this moment, it was a genuine feeling of happiness.

Ye Liting opened her mouth but couldn't speak.

Ye Kong shook his head and softly said, "No need to speak, I know everything you're thinking."

Ye Liting nodded, closed her eyes, and a tear of happiness slid from the corner of her eye.

Ye Kong said, "Don't move yet, I'll inject the auxiliary medicine for you!" Ye Kong's fingertip flashed, and several auxiliary medicines from his storage ring appeared in his hand.

Ye Kong's fingertip flashed with electricity again, and the auxiliary medicines quickly transformed into vital Qi.

Ye Kong moved his finger, and the vital Qi slowly entered Ye Liting's mouth as he directed it.

A moment later, Ye Liting opened her eyes again.

Her voice was finally able to come out.

"Brother Ye—"

Ye Liting's voice trembled, showing how excited she was to see Ye Kong again.

Ye Kong reached out and helped Ye Liting sit up on the ground, then embraced her.

"Everything will be alright, Liting, you must have faith!"

Ye Liting was very weak; she buried her head in Ye Kong's embrace and said, "Mhm, I know Brother Ye, you will definitely come."

The surrounding guards also held their breath at this moment, not daring to disturb Ye Kong and the Young Miss.

Their hearts were equally shocked.

Even their Ye Family God Ancestor had been unable to awaken the Young Miss, but Ye Kong had truly succeeded.

Now, no one doubted Ye Kong's resolve.

Even the more aggressive guards had wide eyes and open mouths at this moment.

The swords they tightly gripped in their hands also fell to the ground.

Ye Kong had really succeeded.

Ye Kong and Ye Liting embraced each other for a while.

No one disturbed them.

Ye Liting suddenly felt a wave of drowsiness.

"Brother Ye, I'm so sleepy."

Ye Kong frowned and quickly checked Ye Liting's current physical condition.

It didn't look good!

The True Qi within Ye Liting's body was extremely sparse, and although the circulation of blood throughout her body was now smooth, the Frigid Divine Meridian had not been completely dissolved by the Spirit Medicine and still remained within Ye Liting's body.

One day, the Frigid Divine Meridian would absorb the power of the Great Dao of the world and once again take over Ye Liting's body.

The fatigue Ye Liting felt now was precisely the residual power of this Frigid Divine Meridian at work.

Damn it, was even the seven-times strengthened heaven-ranked top-grade ginseng velvet still not enough?

It wasn't entirely useless; Ye Liting's body had recovered a lot after being supplemented and regulated by the ginseng velvet, at least she wouldn't die from the Frigid Divine Meridian in the short term.

After understanding this situation, Ye Kong made up his mind.

"Liting, you don't need to worry, the Frigid Divine Meridian in your body has been greatly weakened, and you won't be in danger for a while."

"I know what to do, wait for me."

Although this heaven-ranked top-grade ginseng velvet was strengthened seven times, it ultimately did not reach the Divine-Grade; to completely dissolve the power of the Great Dao was still too high a demand.

There was only one remaining method: go to the Ten Thousand Race Battlefield, find the God of All Races, the God of Life, and have him extend Ye Liting's lifespan!

Ye Kong did not tell Ye Liting that he was going to find an Alien God, fearing she would worry about him.

Ye Liting nodded, gripping Ye Kong's hand tightly with both hands.

Soon, she fell into a deep sleep.

Ye Kong held Ye Liting for a long time before slowly placing her back into the frozen, circular ice heart.

Their reunion, the scene, moved the Ye Family's guards.

They watched as Ye Kong finally kissed Ye Liting's forehead, then stepped out from the Divine Formation.

No one stopped him.

When Ye Kong reached the entrance of the Secret Realm's rock cave, all the guards surrounded him.

Ye Kong's fingertip flashed with electricity.

"What, still want to fight?"

The guards all sheathed their swords.

Then, they bowed deeply to Ye Kong.

"Our Young Miss, we entrust her to you!"

This was something Ye Kong had not expected.

Ye Kong looked around and nodded.

"I will do my utmost."

After speaking, Ye Kong leaped out of the rock cave and flew towards the sky.

While flying, Ye Kong pondered his strategy.

Even the Ye Family God Ancestor, using Divine power, could not cure the illness of Divine Meridian Eruption.

And Divine-Grade Spirit Medicine had not appeared for many years.

Even if it did appear, it might not be specifically for the Frigid Divine Meridian.

Obtaining the heaven-ranked top-grade ginseng velvet was only possible because the aliens wanted to hunt him and brought out their treasured medicine.

For him to search for Divine-Grade Spirit Medicine, not only was the possibility minuscule, but he didn't even know where to begin.

Not to mention there would be other contenders during that time.

And to strengthen a Heaven Rank top-grade Spirit Medicine to Divine-Grade would require infinite energy points.

One hundred million for one-time strengthening.

The leap from Heaven Rank to Divine-Grade was more than a hundred or a thousand times.

Ye Kong felt that even if he slayed several Divine-Grade Yao Beasts, it might not be enough.

How could Liting wait?

If Ye Qingge hadn't risked her life to bring the intelligence, he would have almost missed the chance to extend Ye Liting's life.

All paths pointed to a single road.

That was to find the God of All Races, the God of Life.

Needless to say, to contend with a God, Ye Kong was already struggling immensely.

To force the God of Life to extend Ye Liting's lifespan, he must possess power even greater than the God of Life, capable of completely suppressing the God of Life to have a chance.

Otherwise, even if Ye Kong used all his might and perished with the God of Life, it would still be useless.

Perhaps, he must achieve Godhood to accomplish these goals.

"I need even greater power! To help me achieve Godhood!" Ye Kong suddenly remembered what the Great Qin King had told him.

The Ten Kingdoms Tournament!

A gathering place for all the strong cultivators in the Ten Kingdoms of the Human Race, where various powerhouses display their strength and compete for the glory of their respective great nations.

In the process of battling with experts, one can comprehend the Great Dao of the Gods.

And the victor can also obtain a Divine Spark!

A Divine Spark would be extremely beneficial for achieving Godhood!

Ye Kong decided to immediately go and participate.

Let these strong cultivators become stepping stones for his achievement of Godhood!
