Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 536

Chapter 536: Chapter 537: Time Machine? [2nd Update]

I wonder what the state of my body is now!

He was cultivating two major systems simultaneously! This was something Wu Tian had never anticipated, and it was his first attempt.

At this moment, his Spiritual Sense entered his body for an internal inspection, carefully observing the situation within. However, when his Spiritual Sense once again entered his Dantian Zifu, what he saw surprised him. The Dantian Zifu was something that had only come into existence after he had begun practicing Immortal Cultivation.

Is this... a living Pangu?

He saw that the Earth Spirit Root had transformed into a swirling chaos. Within that chaos, the Pangu Nascent Soul, its hand shaped like a blade, chopped endlessly, but it could not split the chaos.

This isn’t the real Pangu, and it has no Pangu Axe. How could it possibly split the chaos? But what if it could? What would happen if the Pangu Nascent Soul actually split the chaos? Could a new world be born inside my body?

Wu Tian felt a spark of excitement, eager to see what changes would occur within him once the Pangu Nascent Soul broke through the chaos of his Zifu.

"Dad, Dad, save me! I can’t do it! I can’t drink any more!" The river had already submerged the entire base. As the great river poured in, the little Kunpeng had used "Beiming," but it was still just a child and truly couldn’t drink another drop. It felt like it was going to throw up.

Wu Tian snapped back to reality. He walked over, scooped the little one into his arms, and placed the three small beasts on his shoulders. His body, enveloped in a protective light, was impervious to the water. He charged directly upward, bursting through the steel floor plates, which shattered one after another and turned to ash.

「On the beach of the Qinhuang River.」

Dragon Group special agents climbed onto the shore one by one, drenched to the bone, their faces etched with lingering fear. Even as superhumans, they had nearly been killed by the lightning strikes and the water that had suddenly flooded the base. They cleared the tourists from the beach and then gasped for breath, marveling at their narrow escape. To this moment, they still had no idea what had actually happened. How could the base have been struck by lightning out of the blue?

Just then, Wu Tian came ashore.

Zhan Long approached Wu Tian, deciding to take a chance. "Do you have any idea what just happened?" he asked.

To his surprise, Wu Tian replied directly, "Cultivating against the heavens invites a Heavenly Tribulation."

The little one and the three small beasts all nodded in agreement.

"So you’re saying... all of this was your doing?" Zhan Long was stunned. His expression then changed dramatically as he exclaimed in disbelief. For many years, as the Dragon King of the Dragon Group and the cream of the crop among special agents, this was the first time he had ever lost his composure so completely in front of others.

"Impossible!" The other Dragon Group members were equally incredulous. How could Wu Tian be powerful enough to attract a Heavenly Tribulation?

"I can’t be bothered to explain." Holding the little one, Wu Tian turned to leave. He needed to find professors specializing in mental and spatial studies to see if their recent flashes of inspiration had led to any new mental-type inventions.

"Wait a moment, Martial God! You need to give us an explanation for this!" Wei Long stepped forward, blocking Wu Tian’s path.

Wu Tian chuckled. Hadn’t he just made it perfectly clear? He was the one who had summoned the Heavenly Tribulation. What more did these Dragon Group members want him to explain? His cultivation methods? To share his experiences? Or did they believe he was lying and want him to reveal the "real" reason?

Wu Tian kicked out directly.

BANG!

"Daddy, I want some." Having finished her soft drink, the little one was not satisfied and now wanted to try the liquor.

"Absolutely not," Wu Tian refused sternly. "You’re just a child. Why would you be drinking alcohol?" No matter how much he doted on her, this was forbidden.

The little one looked heartbroken, her eyes welling up with tears as she gazed at him.

"It’s no use. You can stop with that expression," Wu Tian said indifferently.

"Humph!" the little one snorted.

Just as Wu Tian was about to lecture his willful child, he overheard a conversation from a nearby table. "Professor Li," one man said, "I heard the seed vault is expanding to accommodate a new invention. Why don’t we go take a look and see what it is?"

"Your field is medicine, and mine is biology," the man named Professor Li replied. "I’ve heard the object they’re putting in is quite profound and not within our areas of expertise. Professor Zheng, we should just stick to our own duties."

"Professor Li, you can’t think of it that way," Professor Zheng insisted. "Think about it. What usually goes into the seed vault? Why would the higher-ups suddenly approve a new invention to be put inside, preserved for all time? What could this thing possibly be to warrant such treatment? Aren’t you the least bit curious?"

Professor Zheng’s words swayed Professor Li. "I heard it’s a door, known colloquially as a ’time machine,’ though I don’t know if that’s true... Alright! Let’s go take a look!"

"Excellent! After you, Professor Li!"

"No, after you, Professor Zheng!"
