Chapter 1176: Putting Down Indifference

"I'm ashamed to be associated with the Mo family, so I must transcend the scope of the Human King bloodline!" Chu Feng said.

Old Gu said, "Don't get cocky. Your current state is very unstable. You haven't truly completed the transformation; it's just a preliminary change, with only a small amount of your blood turning gold."

To be precise, Chu Feng had now crossed a crucial stage, glimpsing the second phase of the Human King path. The bloodline fruit he consumed last time had not been in vain.

And with this additional potential increase today, everything was triggered at this very moment!

"Human Emperor blood, you really dare to say that," Dong Dahu muttered.

"Those are minor matters. The crucial thing is that my memory is now blurry, and I'm afraid of forgetting other things!" Chu Feng said in a deep voice.

He sat cross-legged, trying hard to recall past events and everything from the Lesser Netherworld, wanting to engrave it in his memory, fearing he might truly forget everything completely.

"How much Meng Po Soup did you drink?" Old Gu asked, then looked behind Chu Feng and immediately felt a bit dizzy.

Both jars were empty!

Another jar had also been opened.

Old Gu sighed, "So much! You're courting death. How could you drink it all at once? You, a reincarnated person, will probably be reverted to your original state and forget your past!"

He had never seen anyone so reckless. Did Chu Feng really think Meng Po Soup was syrup? History had already taught a profound lesson to creatures bold enough to be so greedy.

Chu Feng replied, "Didn't I drink it before, and not a small amount either? Nothing happened, and with this Human King blood transformation, I want to add fuel to the fire."

Old Gu's face immediately darkened. "Those I drank before were all mine! You swindled me out of many jars!"

"Many things in my mind have blurred, but there are still hazy outlines. However, they lack a certain depth, a profound and unforgettable emotion."

Chu Feng murmured to himself; this was his true experience.

He hadn't completely forgotten, but when some events replayed in his mind, it was like watching someone else's tragicomedy. He felt like a passerby, pausing there.

"Brother Hu, you remember my past life, and you know my enemies. Make sure you remember them all clearly, don't forget. Also my family and friends; remind me when the time comes. I'm going to keep drinking Meng Po Soup now!"

Chu Feng steeled his resolve and grabbed another jar.

Dong Dahu was startled. "Are you crazy? You're already close to forgetting your past. If you keep this up, you'll be saying goodbye to your previous life."

Chu Feng gritted his teeth and said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. From the Lesser Netherworld to the Greater Yang Realm, it's been so long, and my Human King blood hasn't transformed. You can imagine how difficult it is. Now that an opportunity has finally appeared, I naturally need to accelerate this process."

Old Gu sighed, "You're too impatient. Consider what kind of bloodline this is and how young you are. Normally, a Human King bloodline might transform once in decades, centuries, or even millennia—that's already an extraordinary talent. Without the powerful assistance of an old Human King forcefully pushing it, transformation in youth is simply impossible. You've already started; what more could you be unsatisfied with?"

Chu Feng said, "I want to be stronger. I don't want to merely glimpse the golden bloodline; I want this bloodline transformation to mature more, to go directly much further!"

"Don't rush. It won't be too late to wait until you find other opportunities later," Old Gu advised.

"No, I don't have that much time. Let's begin. Brother Hu, help me remember my past, my relatives, my friends, and my emotions!"

"Brother, don't push yourself so hard! We still have time!" Dong Dahu pleaded anxiously.

"There's no time left. I need to rise quickly. If an opportunity arises, I must seize it. From now on, you'll be responsible for helping me remember the past, and I'll be responsible for seeking revenge and slaying my enemies!" Chu Feng said, gritting his teeth.

Dong Dahu was on the verge of tears. He knew Chu Feng was paying a price; a person's feelings for the past would fade as memories blurred. Many resonances in family affection, friendship, and love might simply cease to exist.

"You remember for me; perhaps I can recall it all again later!" Chu Feng was utterly resolute. In truth, he was also worried and reluctant, but he believed that as long as he became stronger, anything lost could be reversed.

Chu Feng drank the last jar of Meng Po Soup. With a boom, his entire body seemed to ignite, emitting splendid, dazzling golden light as golden blood boiled within him.

Without a doubt, he had grown stronger again. His physique was improving; most of his blood was still azure, but a small portion had already transformed into golden blood!

"Old Gu, lend me a jar of Meng Po Soup!" Chu Feng reached out, intending to continue.

"Are you insane? Drinking this much, I estimate it will sever all your memories from this life. You won't remember anything!" Old Gu said sternly.

Chu Feng said, "It's fine. My past life memories haven't been completely forgotten yet; they're still in my heart!"

Old Gu's expression grew solemn. He took out a jar of Meng Po Soup, and after a slight hesitation, finally handed it to him.

Chu Feng drank a little less than half a jar in one gulp, waiting for his own changes. However, the golden blood did not increase, nor did his cell activity intensify further.

"Hmm, how can this be?" he wondered, surprised.

Old Gu checked his pulse and finally fell silent. This rascal had been drinking Meng Po Soup since childhood, and by now, he was completely saturated and immune.

Any heavenly treasure, even an ultimate elixir, would lose its intended medicinal effects if consumed too frequently, as living organisms develop drug resistance.

"You're utterly insane to have drunk Meng Po Soup to this extent. No one else would do this—only the young disciples of top orthodoxies would dare to squander it like this," Old Gu sighed softly.

Chu Feng refused to believe it. He gulped down the remaining large portion of the jar.

"This is a shameful waste!" Old Gu exclaimed, deeply pained.

As expected, there was no change in Chu Feng's body; he remained in his previous state. The transformation had reached its peak.

At this point, inside him, a small portion of golden blood and a large portion of blue blood were intermingled, a somewhat astonishing sight.

"Brother, how are you?" Dong Dahu asked nervously.

"My memories are growing dimmer. I can only recall some vague past events," Chu Feng replied. This wasn't the worst situation, but it wasn't ideal either.

Dong Dahu began to help him recall, telling him about the events of yesteryear and everything concerning the Lesser Netherworld.

Chu Feng remained silent because he felt as if he were listening to someone else's story, without much emotional fluctuation.

Dong Dahu said, "Your current state is not good; it's a bit like Qin Luoyin. When she recalled her prehistoric past, she became somewhat indifferent, just like you, letting go of everything from the Lesser Netherworld."

Chu Feng pondered, then nodded and said, "I understand her now. She didn't have much resonance or deep emotion with this current life, so she let it go. If she had continued to cling, it would have been bad for both of them. I've also let those things go. Everything starts anew. If fate wills it, I'll meet her again!"

"You..." Dong Dahu was startled.

Chu Feng said, "This is also good. I've let go of some things, and I feel completely unburdened. After embarking on the path of evolution, my speed will be faster, and I will surpass my predecessors all the way. I'm going to start running full tilt on the path of evolution!"

Old Gu sighed with some emotion, saying, "They say the strong are heartless, that the supreme ones forget emotions. It's truly not just idle talk. Letting go of entanglements and severing some karma allows one to go further and become stronger. There's some truth to that."

He looked at Chu Feng with a complex expression. This young man had unintentionally entered such a state and level; such a mindset and realization were not something ordinary people could achieve.

However, Chu Feng frowned and said, "Listening to you, I feel that this path is incorrect. The evolutionary path that most people consider viable might actually be wrong, just as most people find it difficult to achieve great accomplishments. Ultimate powerhouses are solitary; they should have their own path. I will find a way to restore everything from my past—those emotions, those resonances—they will all return!"

"Brother, don't forget us! You must come back!" Dong Dahu's eyes were slightly red with tears.

"I'm not qualified to think that far ahead right now. For now, it's simply about becoming stronger. But one day, I will return complete!" Chu Feng said with a solemn expression.

Old Gu said, "Yes, there's a legend that those who drink Meng Po Soup suppress all emotions, forget their previous lives, and sever their past, thus starting a new life! However, when they reach a certain level of power, everything that was buried will erupt like a volcanic surge, and they will recall the old memories from that year."

"That would be perfect!" Chu Feng nodded.

He secluded himself here for more than ten days. Then, one morning, he bid farewell to Dong Dahu and Old Gu and departed first.

With a boom, he transformed into a brilliant blue light cluster, also imbued with golden glow, and surged with vital blood as he rapidly sped away, vanishing at the horizon.

Chu Feng set off on his journey. He intended to forge his own path and completely bid farewell to a certain period of his life. In this life, he felt reborn, having let go of many things in his heart.

He reflected, recalling everything Dong Dahu had told him about the Lesser Netherworld, and increasingly felt as if he were contemplating someone else's life.

"Am I to start anew in this life? Reborn so completely!"

"No, my parents, relatives, and friends—they aren't forgotten. They've transformed into deeper obsessions within my heart. What I must do now is become stronger and ascend to the peak!"

That day, Chu Feng traveled across states, leaving that great state and heading towards an extremely dangerous region!
