The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

"Then you're wrong. Think about what your ultimate goal is, and then try again. I wasn't this slow-paced when I drew my sword..."

"Oh ho, you're mocking me? Isn't this your sword? Why can't you pull it out?" Han Cheng retorted sarcastically.

"I am merely a consciousness within your mind now; your weakness has nothing to do with me..."

Han Cheng was a little angry, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made sense. He shouldn't have drawn his sword just for the sake of drawing it. So what was his purpose in drawing the sword?

Unlocking the power sealed within himself? It's not that simple. He still needs to defeat Cui Qinchuan and stop his evil plot...

Is that all? It seems like it's already over?

"No, in various TV dramas, the protagonist's ultimate goal is often not to defeat the enemy. In fact, many protagonists don't choose to take the initiative to attack in the end..." Han Cheng began to summarize.

"Haven't you realized it yet?" the consciousness spoke again.

"Enlightenment?" Han Cheng murmured.

Enlightenment? What exactly do I need to understand? The purpose of drawing this sword? Yes, the purpose of drawing the sword is not just for power or to defeat the enemy. The initial and ultimate purpose of gaining power and defeating the enemy is simply to protect the people and things I want to protect!

At this moment, Han Cheng knew that he was not simply drawing his sword for the sake of drawing it, but to protect it. This time, he was not fighting for honor, but only for what he loved. This was the meaning of the sword.

The meaning of a sword lies in protecting those you want to protect!

I understand!

The next second, the ground shattered, and Han Cheng pulled out a sharp sword filled with destructive power.

Han Cheng felt a surge of power coming from his hand, a power he had never felt before, and this power was continuously gathering into his body!

This sword is breaking the seal on its power!

A moment later, a soothing feeling spread throughout his body, and Han Cheng exhaled a breath of stale air. At this moment, Han Cheng felt an endless power within him. The strength of this power shocked Han Cheng. Now he should be able to easily kill Cui Qinchuan, right? After all, this Chosen One seemed to be at the level of a Creator, while Cui Qinchuan was at most an Apocalypse, a destroyer of the world, but he himself was at the level of a Creator, and he also had one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who was also the strongest Death Knight.

"Destroy, then protect." Han Cheng said calmly, raising his long sword and rushing out of the cave at lightning speed. He had now undergone a qualitative change.

"Little Han, you really lived up to expectations." Leng Rancheng grinned.

"Then let's hurry up and defeat the big bad guy!" Sima Yu waved her pink fists twice.

The group exchanged smiles and directly entered the Mirror World, where they were now facing their final battle against Cui Qinchuan.

-

"By the way, Xiao Han, how well have you mastered this sword?" Sima Yu asked.

"I'm not entirely sure, but it feels really good for me. I feel a sense of familiarity with it, and I can basically do it effortlessly," Han Cheng said.

"That's fine then." Sima Yu pursed his lips, thinking to himself that he wished he had his own exclusive weapon.

Inside the mirror world, Cui Qinchuan waited for Han Cheng with an arrogant demeanor, plotting how to threaten Han Cheng to find infinite energy for him.

"Ahem." Han Cheng coughed twice. Cui Qinchuan looked up and glanced at Han Cheng indifferently. "What, have you made up your mind?"

"I've thought it through. Let's make a trade. You give her back to me, and I'll take you to find the Infinite Energy." Han Cheng said calmly. He had already discussed it with everyone, pretending to agree to Cui Qinchuan's request, and then launching a counterattack just as they were about to find the Infinite Energy, catching him off guard and leaving him utterly defeated!

"Those who understand the times are wise." Cui Qinchuan slowly stood up, said nothing more, looked at Han Cheng, and gestured for Han Cheng to lead the way.

The consciousness told Han Cheng that it could sense the location of this infinite energy, and Han Cheng did indeed sense it. He thought he would take Cui Qinchuan there for the time being, and then make further plans.

Two groups of people, led by Han Cheng and followed by Cui Qinchuan, walked forward together, though they were still in separate groups.

Han Cheng walked ahead with a barely perceptible confident smile. Suddenly, a familiar aura wafted over, as if from an old friend? Han Cheng shook his head. In the Mirror World, where the infinite energy was located, what old friend could he possibly have?

Not far away, a stone tablet appeared. Han Cheng was a little surprised. We arrived so quickly? According to his intuition and consciousness, he needed to place his hand on the stone tablet, and then a palace would appear, where he could find the infinite energy.

But how could Han Cheng let Cui Qinchuan have his way?

"Here," Han Cheng said calmly, then stopped.

"Here?" Cui Qinchuan looked puzzled. There was clearly nothing here, except for the stone tablet. Cui Qinchuan clearly felt a fluctuation of power. Yes, this must be the place.

"Hmph." Han Cheng smiled faintly, walked to the stone tablet, and calmly placed his right hand on the stone tablet. Instantly, the inscription on the stone tablet lit up, and a loud "rumble" was heard a moment later.

A magnificent palace rose from the ground. Cui Qinchuan's eyes lit up. This must be it. The power fluctuations had obviously become stronger!

"Unlimited energy!" Cui Qinchuan thought to himself, "I'll get it soon, and then..."

“Only the two of us can go in. Before that, you have to give me your dream.” Han Cheng said calmly. “Don’t worry, you don’t have to worry about me playing any tricks. After all, I can’t beat you. I just want to find something I can trust about you.”

"Hmph, I knew you wouldn't dare. So, I'll return her to you. She's just a burden anyway." Cui Qinchuan chuckled, waving his hand to have his men bring Xu Xiaomeng to Han Cheng. Han Cheng quickly helped Xu Xiaomeng up. Looking at her sleeping face, Han Cheng felt much more at ease. Cui Qinchuan, now it's time for you to pay the price. The Chosen One's consciousness has largely awakened. There is indeed infinite energy in that palace, but it's not just infinite energy; there's also a mysterious entity. Combined with his current unparalleled power, Cui Qinchuan is doomed this time.

Outside the palace, Zhou Long, Xiao Yun, and Liu Ruchi, along with the Death Knight alone, were enough to contend with them, not to mention Leng Rancheng and Sima Yu.

Hmph, in this battle of superpowers, victory will only belong to myself.

Han Cheng handed Xu Xiaomeng over to Sima Yu for care, then calmly stepped into the palace. The palace was magnificent and splendid, yet it also possessed a solemn atmosphere.

Cui Qinchuan followed closely behind.
