When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Fearing that the void would flee upon hearing the word "question," Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking at his fastest pace in over thirty years.

When Xu Kong heard Zhu Chongjiu's question, he did not answer, but simply looked at Zhu Chongjiu quietly.

Just as Zhu Chongjiu was about to speak out because of the sight of the void, the void finally spoke up: "When I first met you, I thought you were quite smart, but now I realize that your intelligence can only be shown in one aspect."

When two equally matched people fight, one with a weapon and the other unarmed, who do you think will win?

Zhu Chongjiu was about to answer when the void interrupted him, saying, "No need to say anything, I know your answer!"

Void continued, "Let me ask you a question: If a toddler with a knife fights an unarmed adult, who do you think would win?"

After asking the question, Void continued, "Alright, you don't need to answer. Think about it yourself."

If you can figure it out, that's fine. But if you can't, then don't call me anymore.

I don't want to be around an idiot; I'm afraid it will affect my intelligence!

After finishing speaking, Xu Kong turned and disappeared from Zhu Chongjiu's sight.

Zhu Chongjiu looked at the departing void and shouted loudly, "Who do you think you are?"

I know what you mean.

Isn't what you're trying to say is that you and the person who oppressed you are like the toddler and the adult with the knife, as you described?

Only when the two are evenly matched can we determine whose laws are more powerful and who will win. Hmph!

Seeing that the void did not respond, Zhu Chongjiu began to observe the seed of nothingness that was now floating in front of him again.

Zhu Chongjiu tried the old method again, but to no avail. So he decided to use physics and physical objects to approach it and try to understand it anew.

Zhu Chongjiu raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and carefully touched the seed of nothingness with his fingertip.

The moment his fingertips touched the Void Seed, Zhu Chongjiu stopped moving and began to feel the sensation of his fingertips touching the Void Seed for that instant.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Chongjiu withdrew his finger and brought the finger that had touched the Seed of Nothingness to his eyes for a closer look.

It was discovered that the fingertip was missing a small piece, as if it had never existed.

When Zhu Chongjiu tried to regenerate the missing fingertip using his powerful physical abilities, he discovered that it was impossible.

Zhu Chongjiu was startled and thought to himself, "I have been injured in battle before."

Even if you break an arm or a leg, you can recover completely in a very short time thanks to your own bodily functions.

But now even a small crack, the size of a grain of rice, cannot be restored to its original state.

This left Zhu Chongjiu feeling quite frightened. He muttered to himself, "I'm so glad I didn't act impulsively and only touched it. Otherwise, my entire finger would probably be gone."

However, there were also things that pleased Zhu Chongjiu. Through this period of contact, Zhu Chongjiu also faintly sensed the laws of the void.

Since we can sense the law of emptiness, we are not far from understanding it.

Zhu Chongjiu secretly cheered himself up.

Subsequently, Zhu Chongjiu, unaware of the passage of time, used all ten of his fingers to touch and peered with his naked eyes as if training a hawk.

Finally, on this day, Zhu Chongjiu's voice echoed through this space!

"Nothingness is beyond words and beyond comprehension!"

"At the beginning of all things, it is also the origin of all things."

Accompanying the words was a burst of violent laughter!

The laughter lasted for a long time.

Laughter contains both joy and happiness, as well as relief and hardship.

At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu was already in tears, it was unclear whether these tears were for joy or for sorrow.

It's possible that it's both!

Hidden in the shadows, the void was secretly alarmed upon witnessing this scene.

He thought to himself, "What a remarkable human from another world! In this universe, I've never heard of any genius who, at such a young age and with such strength, has already gained a basic understanding of the Void Laws!"

Although this child often overlooks some details, when it comes to discovering certain details, no one can match him.

As that person said, this person can save me.

While he was pondering in the void, he heard Zhu Chongjiu calling out to him loudly.

Immediately, the void appeared before Zhu Chongjiu.

Gone was the cold shoulder he had shown before; instead, he greeted her with a beaming smile, cupping his hands in a fist and palm salute, saying, "Congratulations! Congratulations on taking so long to achieve a basic understanding of the Void Laws."

After hearing Xu Kong's words, Zhu Chongjiu asked with some doubt, "Will it take a long time?"

By the way, I have a question for you.

Do you know how long I've been in this space?

Beyond the sacred mountain, on the continent of Houtu, lies a beautifully built manor in a completely deserted place.

Xiao Tian asked his father, Xiao Feng, "Father, Ninth Brother has been missing from the Sacred Mountain of the Flame Empire for over twenty years. Are we really going to keep waiting like this?"

Xiao Feng sat upright in the armchair, holding an ancient book in his hand, and answered Xiao Tiandao without raising his head: "Even if we find the other four elements of heaven and earth, without Ninth Brother's fire element, all our efforts will be in vain."

I have already reported this matter to Prince Zhurong, and Prince Zhurong has also sent word.

His cultivation has reached a critical stage. After this period, once his strength has stabilized, he will personally come to this continent.

When the time comes, someone will take care of Ninth Brother; you and I, father and son, won't need to worry about it.

Upon hearing his father Xiao Feng's words, Xiao Tian asked in alarm, "Are you saying that Young Master Zhu Rong will personally come to this God-Forsaken Continent?"

Doesn't that mean he can still return to the Upper Realm?

Xiao Feng smiled and looked up at Xiao Tian, ​​saying, "I'll tell you today, this is also why I helped him with his work."

However, this person himself is incredibly powerful, and his family is extremely powerful in the Upper Realm.

When Prince Zhurong arrives, you must not provoke him; in fact, you should do your best to please him.

"If you can stay by Prince Zhurong's side after returning to the Upper Realm, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory, and have inexhaustible cultivation resources."

After hearing his father Xiao Feng's words, Xiao Tian slowly faded away, envisioning a bright future.

Watching his son Xiao Tian's disappearing figure, Xiao Tian put down the ancient book in his hand and thought to himself, "Son, by doing this, I have completely betrayed my master."

If you cannot follow Prince Zhurong, even if we reach the Upper Realm, my son and I will be like rootless grass, easily destroyed by a gust of wind.

Now, even as a father, I don't know whether what I did was right or wrong!

Meanwhile, on Zhu Chongjiu's side!

A furious roar was heard: "About twenty years? Not about twenty days?"

Then Zhu Chongjiu looked at the void with a face full of terror and asked!

Void nodded nonchalantly and replied, "Although I didn't specifically record it, based on my intuition, I can basically confirm that it was around twenty years ago."

Moreover, the difference is no more than one month.

Oh! By the way, don't ask me if my intuition is accurate. When you reach a certain level of skill, you won't need to consciously record the time; you can sense it simply by focusing your mind.

Zhu Chongjiu was completely dumbfounded after hearing Xukong's explanation.

He muttered to himself, "I've been to this world, visited so many places, and experienced so many things, and it hasn't even taken me two years."

But you're telling me you've stayed here for twenty years at once?

As Zhu Chongjiu spoke, he looked at the void with some disbelief.

However, after Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, he knew in his heart that Xu Kong would not lie to him about such a thing.

At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu thought of his wife and children, and even wanted to tell Xiao Hei, who was only waiting for him for a month.

My heart was in turmoil, filled with mixed feelings.

But what can we do?

What's done is done; what can I do when I'm too weak?

Zhu Chongjiu looked up and cursed loudly, "Damn you, God! Don't make me invincible, or you'll see if I don't teach you a lesson!"

"You brought me here. Let's not even talk about foreign countries; our own country has over a billion people, men, women, and children, and there are countless people stronger than me. Why me?"

After venting his anger at the void above for about half an hour, Zhu Chongjiu returned to the void.

Zhu Chongjiu saw a clear reluctance in Xukong's eyes, and at that moment, Xukong knew that Zhu Chongjiu was about to leave.

However, Xu Kong never uttered a single word to persuade Zhu Chongjiu to stay.

After a moment of eye contact, Zhu Chongjiu said, "Don't worry, I will find a way to get you out of here as soon as possible."

Also, as long as I'm on this continent, I'll come back to visit you often.

Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xu Kong nodded heavily to Zhu Chongjiu.

Then, after placing the Seed of Nothingness back into Zhu Chongjiu's mind, he said, "Now that you understand the laws of nothingness, I'll give you this Seed of Nothingness."

On this continent, no matter what you encounter, it's enough to save your life!

Be careful, and don't act impulsively again.

Now, you don't just have your own mission; you also have the mission to rescue me!

Zhu Chongjiu waved his hand and flew upwards into the space above, shouting back as he did so, "Understood, wait for me!"

"But you're being too stingy, only giving me a single Seed of Nothingness."

After he finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu's loud laughter followed, gradually fading into the distance and becoming fainter.

Standing in the void below, she looked up and waved repeatedly at Zhu Chongjiu's retreating figure with a smile, bidding him farewell.

At the same time, the void body gradually faded away until it disappeared completely.

After the void disappeared, the space fell silent once more.

Many things and memories have been erased.

It's as if nothing ever happened!
