Chapter 1669: Chapter 1669: Master of the Entire Earth

"Reality, huh?"

Chen Feng frowned, still not quite sure.

Looking at Chen Feng’s confused expression.

The old Taoist also shook his head, thought for a moment, then continued, "Then have you ever doubted the Tianqi Holy Pearl, or doubted me?"

"I trust you!"

Chen Feng hurriedly nodded.

After all, no matter how you look at it.

Without the Tianqi Holy Pearl, there would be no Chen Feng today.

And if not for the old Taoist saving him several times, Chen Feng wouldn’t even be alive now.

So when it came to the Tianqi Holy Pearl and the old Taoist, Chen Feng absolutely believed.

He was sure that even if someone wanted to harm him.

The Tianqi Holy Pearl and the old Taoist definitely wouldn’t.

This was a bond you could entrust your life and death to.

"Since you trust the Tianqi Holy Pearl, then you’ve already used the Eye of Tianqi to scan your surroundings and found no illusions—everything is real. Since you trust me, then I’ll tell you very clearly: only now are you truly in reality. So what else is there for you to doubt?"

The old Taoist said.

Hearing this.

Chen Feng frowned again.

Yeah.

Even the Eye of Tianqi hadn’t found any flaws.

And the old Taoist kept telling him, over and over, that this was reality.

What was there left for him to suspect?

He’d managed to wake up from a deep dream, and instantly grasped a terrifying power, becoming an ultimate powerhouse.

Wasn’t that a pretty good outcome?

But.

He didn’t know why.

Chen Feng just felt that all of this was a bit unreal, a bit strange.

But he couldn’t say exactly what was off.

Seeing Chen Feng’s face full of doubt.

The old Taoist also smiled faintly and said, "Enough, stop overthinking it. First, feel the power you have in your body now. See for yourself just how strong you’ve become!"

"Yeah."

Chen Feng nodded, then moved his mind.

In an instant, a terrifying aura burst out from inside his body.

Feeling that immense, boundless power within.

Chen Feng was completely stunned.

Because this power was just too fierce, countless times stronger than before.

It even completely surpassed Heavenly Rank Perfection experts.

In that moment.

Chen Feng felt that Heavenly Rank Perfection experts in front of him were like mere ants.

If he ran into the Great Elder of Tie Sect again, or that Black Robe man.

There would be no need for a hard battle; just a casual twitch of his finger would squash them.

The power in his body right now was that terrifying, that overwhelming.

At this moment.

Chen Feng could no longer remain calm; his face was covered with shock.

How could he suddenly become this strong?

Everything else could be faked, could be used to deceive him.

But this feeling of becoming stronger was so real.

This couldn’t be faked, could it?

Could it be that he really had slept for four years, accepted Emperor Tianqi’s inheritance, and obtained all the power contained in the Tianqi Holy Pearl?

Could it be that he really was in reality right now?

And everything that had happened in those four years before was really just a dream?

Thinking of this.

Chen Feng fell into deep thought.

Seeing Chen Feng’s shocked expression.

The old Taoist grinned and asked, "Well? How does it feel?"

"Very strong. I feel incredibly strong right now!"

Chen Feng took a deep breath, savoring the terrifying power in his body, his face intoxicated as he spoke.

"That’s how it should be. Back then, Emperor Tianqi stored all his power and inheritance inside the Tianqi Holy Pearl. Now that you’ve obtained all that power from the Tianqi Holy Pearl, your strength is already about the same as Emperor Tianqi’s back then. You are the new Emperor Tianqi. From this day on, on this Earth, there will be no one who can be your match. You won’t just become the Dominator of the Ancient Martial World, you’ll become the Dominator of the entire Earth!"

The old Taoist said with a smile.

"Really?"

A sharp light flashed in Chen Feng’s eyes, and he asked excitedly, "I can dominate the entire Earth?"

"Of course. As you are now, you already have that level of strength. On the entire Earth, there’s no longer anyone who can be your opponent. You are the absolute king, the new Emperor Tianqi. You can conquer the whole Earth!"

The old Taoist nodded, speaking with absolute certainty.

"So that means, from now on, everything on Earth will be up to me?"

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, grinning as he asked.

"That’s right! So? Those four years of sleep weren’t wasted, were they? You wake up from a nap and you’re already the strongest man on Earth. Isn’t that way better than what you went through in your dream?"

"All that exhausting struggle, nine deaths and still alive, and you only barely reached Heaven Rank. There was still a long road ahead, and you might never have reached the Peak. But right now in reality, you instantly became the absolute Dominator of Earth. Isn’t that something to be happy about?"

The old Taoist nodded and said with a smile.

"Yeah, it is pretty satisfying."

Chen Feng smiled and nodded, then his eyes narrowed and his tone suddenly shifted as he said calmly, "But I still want to go back to reality!"

"Go back to reality? You’re in reality right now!"

The old Taoist froze for a moment and quickly said.

"Enough, stop lying to me. Whether I’m in reality right now or in that so-called deep dream, I know perfectly well."

Chen Feng shot the old Taoist a sideways glance and said flatly.

"What do you mean?"

The old Taoist’s expression suddenly darkened, and he asked coldly, "Don’t tell me you don’t even trust me anymore?"

"Heh, I do trust you. But the one I trust is the real senior, not you, you fake."

Chen Feng sneered coldly, his tone full of disdain.

"What fake? You actually dare call me a fake?"

The old Taoist’s eyes widened, a bit enraged and embarrassed.

"Why? Did I say something wrong? This place isn’t reality at all. It’s exactly that deep dream you kept going on about just now. As for you, you’re nothing but a fake inside this dream."

Chen Feng said with a cold laugh.

Hearing this.

The old Taoist’s face changed instantly. He glared viciously at Chen Feng and hurriedly said, "What are you talking about? This is reality!"

"Enough with the acting. A dream is still a dream. You can’t fool me."

Chen Feng waved his hand in disdain, then looked at the old Taoist and asked with a cold smile, "Want to know how I spotted the flaw?"

"H-how did you spot it?"

The old Taoist swallowed nervously, a bit flustered.

"Power. The ridiculous power I have in my body. You know, at the beginning I really was fooled by you for a bit, actually started to believe this was the real world. But when I felt that terrifying power in my body, I suddenly snapped awake."

Chen Feng’s lips curled slightly as he sneered.

"You having powerful strength in your body—what’s wrong with that? Didn’t I already tell you? You got Emperor Tianqi’s inheritance, slept for four years, so you got stronger in one go. What’s there to doubt about that?"

The old Taoist asked in confusion.
