Extraordinary Soldier King in the City
Chapter 1670: Some Things Can Never Be Replaced
"How should I put it? It’s too fake. Suddenly gaining such terrifying power makes me feel very uneasy. I even have the feeling that this power doesn’t belong to me!"
With a slight curl of his lips, Chen Feng said with a faint smile.
"Why wouldn’t it belong to you? You’ve inherited the legacy of Emperor Tianqi and gained his power. Now that you’ve successfully merged into one, it belongs to you. It is your power!"
The old Taoist remained unconvinced as he spoke.
"No, no, no, that’s not how it should be said!"
Chen Feng waved his hand and then said calmly:
"Do you know? In the past four years, on the path of cultivation, it can be said that I’ve progressed step by step. Even though I’ve undergone countless life-and-death experiences and endured various hardships and difficulties, everything was solid, because my strength was earned through my own efforts, and that gives me peace of mind."
"Moreover, I’ve come to realize one truth—if you want to become stronger, you can only rely on your own effort. No one else can help you. Others can only provide assistance, but the only one who can truly decide the future is yourself. That is reality!"
"But now? Out of nowhere, I’ve obtained all the power and legacy of Emperor Tianqi, leaping to become the strongest person on Earth. All of this is too fake. How should I put it? It’s like a dream, hard to believe!"
"Perhaps if it were someone else, they would believe it, be happy, be ecstatic, and impatiently go to conquer the so-called world. But I won’t, because I know that to become stronger, one must cultivate through one’s own effort, step by step. As for inheriting power and soaring to the skies in one go, it’s simply unrealistic!"
Chen Feng’s words.
Even left the old Taoist dumbfounded.
Then, the old Taoist frowned, looked at Chen Feng, and continued to try to tempt him: "Young man, even if it’s a dream right now, isn’t it wonderful to live in such a dream?"
"Here, you are an invincible powerhouse, the ruler of Earth. You can get everything you want and do everything you want to do."
"Unlike in your so-called reality, where you’re just a weak Heaven Rank Ancient Martial Artist, with too many powerful beings pressing down on you."
"To climb up, you still have to go through life and death, face dangers, and who knows, one day you might just accidentally die, losing any chance of becoming the ruler of Earth forever."
"So, I advise you to consider carefully whether to stay here as a god or go back to your so-called reality as an ordinary person!"
Faced with the temptation offered by the old Taoist.
Chen Feng shook his head with a smile, and said calmly, "You want me to live in a dream forever? No matter how beautiful the dream, it’s all illusion. Whether to be a god or a person, even if it’s to be an ordinary person, I still want to live in reality and strive in it. Only then will I feel grounded."
"So you’re determined to leave here?"
Upon hearing this, the old Taoist’s face instantly darkened, and he asked coldly.
"That’s right, I love reality. I love everything I have there. I have loved ones there, friends, brothers, and of course, enemies! But that’s where I want to be!"
Chen Feng said with a determined look.
"Foolish, I don’t understand. Here, the entire Earth is yours. Isn’t that better than those ordinary people? In a hundred years, they will just be bones, fading away into nothingness. But here you can live forever, enjoy yourself leisurely. Isn’t that better than going back to die slowly with those mundane folks?"
The old Taoist glared at Chen Feng and spoke coldly.
"Haha, immortality, huh? That’s quite a huge temptation!"
Chen Feng smiled playfully.
"What about it, are you tempted?"
The old Taoist asked with some anticipation.
"Rather than living forever, being lonely all my life, I would prefer to enjoy life and spend it with my loved ones!"
Chen Feng said lightly.
"Ignorant, you’re extremely ignorant!"
The old Taoist said angrily.
"Just consider me ignorant, after all, you, a fraud from a dream, have no understanding of what emotions are!"
"You believe power, authority, and immortality are the most important things in the world, and that you can give up everything else for these things."
"But you’re wrong, very wrong. In this world, there are things more important than those, and that is love and familial ties!"
"These two things, nothing can replace. If you still wish to tempt me to give up returning to reality, then I advise you to give up!"
With a slight curl of his lips, Chen Feng spoke with a resolute expression.
"Fine, fine. Since talking doesn’t work, then I won’t bother wasting words with you. You want to return to that reality? Then return. I want to see if you have the ability to leave this place!"
The old Taoist laughed coldly as he spoke. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
"What? Are you going to stop me?"
Chen Feng squinted his eyes and asked coldly.
"Stop you? Haha, kid, even if I don’t stop you, you can’t leave!"
The old Taoist sneered disdainfully, then looked at Chen Feng and mocked, "Do you know what a deep dream is? You are currently in a deep dream. I’ve told you before, a deep dream is another form of reality; even if you know you’re inside this dream, you still can’t wake up. You’ll keep sinking into this dream, never able to leave!"
Hearing this.
Chen Feng’s face suddenly darkened, narrowing his eyes, he stared at the old Taoist coldly, and said, "I wonder if killing you would break this dream?"
"Hahaha, young man, you are still too naive. If you have the skills, try it!"
The old Taoist laughed heartily, full of arrogance, as he said.
"Then allow me to offend!"
A cold light flashed in Chen Feng’s eyes as he swung his fist, directly aiming at the old Taoist’s body.
This punch contained an incredibly terrifying force.
Much stronger than Chen Feng’s power in reality.
Chen Feng believed that even if a Heavenly Rank Perfection martial artist stood in front of him.
This punch alone would be able to crush them.
It must be said.
The power within Chen Feng now was too vast.
Even knowing he was in a dream.
This surging power still greatly fascinated him.
"Boom!"
There was a resounding sound of the air splitting apart.
Chen Feng’s punch, carrying unbelievably terrifying power, all poured onto the old Taoist.
However, the next moment.
Chen Feng stood dumbfounded.
He had originally thought that his punch would definitely be able to instantly kill this fake old Taoist in front of him.
But after his punch landed on the body of the old Taoist, it caused no harm; instead, it passed right through the old Taoist...
