Chapter 118 Returning to Reality
"Plenty of alcohol."
The witch's smile was captivating, her allure irresistible.
As she spoke, she took out her Qiankun bag from her side, pulled out a jar of well-sealed old wine, and patted the seal open. The clear aroma of the wine instantly broke through the aroma of meat and spread throughout the forest.
With a slight tilt of his wrist, the amber-colored wine gushed into the bowl, filling it to about eight-tenths full, and then he pushed one of the bowls in front of Shi Geng.
"Try it, this fine wine we found along the way."
Shi Geng took the wine bowl, brought it to the rim and took a small sip, his eyebrows curving slightly: "The taste is quite good, and paired with this crispy dog, it's a delicacy beyond compare."
After saying that, he picked up the wooden stick, picked up a piece of crispy and tender meat and put it in his mouth. The aroma of meat and wine blended on his tongue.
The campfire crackled as the two men sat around it, eating meat and drinking wine, enjoying a moment of leisure and comfort.
After a few drinks, she raised her eyes and looked leisurely at Shi Geng, asking softly, "I heard that a child in the Primordial Land broke more than a dozen records in the Void God Realm. Could that person be you?"
Shi Geng paused slightly in his hand holding the wine bowl, a faint smile spreading across his lips, before tilting his head back and drinking the wine in the bowl to the last drop.
"Didn't you already know that? Why ask when you already know the answer?"
He put down the ceramic bowl, tapping the rim lightly with his fingertips, his tone calm and composed. He didn't believe that the witch, with her intelligence capabilities, wouldn't know that the person was him.
The witch narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing him for a moment before covering her lips with a soft laugh, her eyes sparkling with allure: "It really is you. Breaking over a dozen records in one go, crushing countless geniuses under your feet, you're now a legendary figure in the entire Void God Realm."
"So, how about it? Interested in following your older sister's lead?"
After saying that, she raised her hand and refilled the wine bowl, her beautiful eyes gazing at Shi Geng with great interest.
In her opinion, this little guy has amazing potential. Even though he comes from the lower realm, he has achieved so much at such a young age. Even if he were placed in the upper realm, he would be a rare talent and worth winning over.
Besides, she also felt a strange feeling in her heart. She felt that Shi Geng's eyebrows and eyes were very familiar. It was not the impression left by their meeting some time ago, but as if she had seen him somewhere in a very long time ago.
Shi Geng's hand holding the bowl suddenly paused, quite surprised. He never expected that he would catch the witch's eye, and that she clearly wanted to win him over, even intending to take him to the upper realm.
The witch had an extremely powerful background. What appeared before him was merely a spiritual form. Her true form was the Holy Maiden of the Jietian Sect in the Upper Realm. The Jietian Sect was an ancient and renowned lineage in the Upper Realm, with unfathomable depths of knowledge and power.
If you accept the invitation, you can not only avoid the calamity in the lower realm in the future, but also find a stable backer by borrowing the other party's power after entering the upper realm.
Faced with this tempting offer, Shi Geng gently shook his head, glancing sideways at the witch with a hint of teasing in his voice: "No. You clearly want to use me as a long-term meal ticket, don't you?"
The witch raised her eyebrows slightly and gave Shi Geng a reproachful look: "Meal tickets? Do I look like someone who's starving or hungry?"
"They look quite similar."
Shi Geng nodded heavily, his face serious.
The witch's lips twitched violently at the sight, and she thought to herself, "This kid is really infuriating. Why didn't I notice it when we first met?"
The witch suppressed the urge to slap Shi Heng and said calmly, "If you change your mind in the future, you can contact me with this."
A bronze token with strange ancient patterns fell from the sky, its figure flickered, and then disappeared into the distance.
Shi Geng reached out and caught the token, and just as he put it away, he cried out in agony, "Damn it! My flesh!"
Seemingly in retaliation for Shi Geng's earlier words, the witch took the whole dog that was sitting on the fire with her before leaving.
Shi Geng looked up and saw that the bonfire was empty, with only a bare wooden frame standing alone in the same spot. He was immediately filled with despair.
"This woman is too vengeful."
He shook his head helplessly and casually put the token into his Qiankun bag. Whether he could use it or not was another matter, but it would be a pity to lose an item given to him by a beauty.
The barbecue was all taken away, and Shi Geng had no intention of lingering any longer. After a moment's thought, he realized that he had stayed in the Realm of the Gods long enough, and it was time to return to the real world.
The Realm of the Gods may be wondrous, but in the end it is just a world constructed by the mind. His physical body is still in the Heavenly Revelation Palace. Who knows what might happen if he doesn't go back for a long time?
With this thought in mind, Shi Geng didn't delay any longer. He leaped into the air, his leap as swift as a startled swan, directly breaking the record for the farthest jump in the Void God Realm. The record stone tablet beside him surged with spiritual light and slowly materialized.
Shi Geng shrugged, completely unconcerned about the strange phenomenon on the list. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped through the continuous mountains, arriving directly at the teleportation channel of the initial land of the Void God Realm.
With a thought, Shi Geng's body instantly transformed into countless starlight points, completely dissipating into the Void God Realm. The surrounding crowd remained around the stone tablet, discussing amongst themselves. Someone said with a wry smile, "Another record broken?"
"Outrageous! It's only been half a day, and they've broken another record! Can't a person have a moment's peace?"
"What a prodigy!"
"He swept all nineteen top spots! What face do we, the pride of our generation, have left?"
Regardless of the discussions among the people in the Void God Realm, Shi Geng's consciousness was as if it had been forcibly pulled out of the boiling clamor of the Void God Realm by an invisible hand, and suddenly fell back into reality.
His eyelids twitched a few times, and he slowly opened them. His vision was still a little blurry when a face that was very close to his eyes filled his entire field of vision.
The owner of this face is none other than King Apocalypse.
The Apocalypse King seemed to be bending down to observe him closely, their noses almost touching. Shi Geng could even see the shadow cast by the other's long eyelashes, and his own slightly bewildered face reflected in those deep eyes.
His heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively held his breath. His body shrunk back as he instinctively covered his buttocks, his back hitting the cold chair back with a slight thud.
"Cough cough, you're awake?"
The Apocalypse King straightened up, his tone calm, as if the almost face-to-face observation he had just made was nothing out of the ordinary.
He stepped back, casually straightened his wide sleeves embroidered with gold in black, and glanced at Shi Geng's face before saying nonchalantly, "I heard you caused quite a stir in the Void God Realm."
"Ahem, it's nothing but a small matter."
Shi Geng raised his hand and scratched his head, looking somewhat uncomfortable.
"The commotion you caused inside was quite significant; the entire Stone Kingdom has been alerted."
King Tianqi narrowed his eyes slightly, his tone tinged with amazement: "Tsk tsk, breaking eighteen records in one go, such a feat is unprecedented in the long history of the Void God Realm."
"Hey, what's the big deal? You can do it with your hands."
Shi Geng waved his hand, looking "humble".
The corner of Apocalypse King's mouth twitched violently, and he thought to himself: So everyone else is handless?
In his youth, he was a renowned prodigy of the Stone Clan, but despite his best efforts, he couldn't break a single record in the Void God Realm. Hearing Shi Gen's nonchalant words, he felt a sense of frustration that was both laughable and frustrating.
King Tianqi shook his head helplessly, his smile fading as he said seriously, "Prepare yourself to come with me to the imperial city; the Emperor wishes to see you."
