Chapter 545: Some Divine Races Are Just Pawns
“Brother Shan, I’m still a bit worried. Is there a more secretive place here?”
The Yin Gathering Fairy asked nervously.
“There is! There’s a secret room in my room.”
Chen Shan nodded, stood up, and turned the teacup on his desk. Suddenly, a hidden chamber appeared in the room…
Seeing the secret room, the Yin Gathering Fairy’s beautiful eyes lit up, and she hurried inside, setting up a formation to isolate divine senses, ensuring everything was foolproof!
“Brother Shan, you must keep my hiding here a secret. Once I recover from my injuries, I will definitely repay you well!”
The Yin Gathering Fairy said with a pleading expression.
“Don’t worry, with Brother Shan here, there’s no problem!”
Chen Shan was extremely excited in his heart, feeling that he was truly experiencing a blessing in disguise.
At least it was a thousand times better than with Ye Tianxin.
After the secret room door closed, Chen Shan’s eyes sparkled as he quickly walked toward Lin Feng’s room.
He was clever and immediately guessed that the terrifying sword intent he had just felt was likely related to his son-in-law.
However, he didn’t tell the Yin Gathering Fairy, as once she knew the truth, she would definitely not be as grateful to him!
…
On the other side, after the two sword intents merged, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, his aura had clearly changed, transforming from the previous sharp and cold demeanor to a now deep and steady presence, as if he had become a different person!
“What’s going on? My sword intent can actually devour other sword intents?”
Lin Feng murmured to himself.
He originally intended to refine the two completely different sword intents and store them in his life sword, so that in future battles, he could unleash both sword intents as a small trump card.
But unexpectedly, his life sword intent was too unruly, as one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and it simply wouldn’t allow the Holy Sword Intent of the White Robe Sword Master to coexist.
“However, after devouring the sword intent of the White Robe Sword Master, my sword path power has clearly strengthened, and my strength has risen to a new level.”
“Now I should be able to claim that I am invincible below the Integration stage and can trade blows with those above it!”
“Whether it’s the older generation or the young prodigies who can fight beyond their level, they cannot be my opponents!”
A glimmer of brilliance flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes.
Although what had just happened was bizarre, he was not worried; instead, he was very excited, feeling that he had found another way to enhance his strength!
Upon careful thought, it was indeed terrifying!
Previously, he could enhance his strength by absorbing others’ life essence.
Now, if he could also absorb others’ sword intents without limit, wouldn’t he quickly be able to encompass all rivers, combining the strengths of a hundred schools, and carve out an invincible sword path?
“I am the child of destiny, my fortune defies the heavens!”
“As long as I am given time, I will surely reverse the world, sweep away all enemies, uncover all secrets, and ultimately transcend tribulations and ascend, breaking free from shackles and ranking among the immortals!”
“However, I still need to take it slow and not rush!”
Lin Feng murmured to himself.
“Swish~”
At this moment, the void rippled.
A young man in red appeared before Lin Feng; it was the arriving Foolish Dragon…
Foolish Dragon scrutinized Lin Feng and exclaimed, “Kid, your strength has improved quite a bit! Where have you been these past few days?”
“I went to a tomb! By the way, since you’ve experienced the ancient calamity, do you know Bai Feiyu?”
Lin Feng asked.
“Bai Feiyu?”
Foolish Dragon repeated, then exclaimed, “You mean the White Robe Sword Master Bai Feiyu? He was a formidable figure from ancient times, unmatched in swordsmanship, known as the Sword Master. Back then, he was only at the Great Ascension stage but could contend with those transcending tribulations!”
“Unfortunately, he encountered misfortune! What a pity he fell; otherwise, with his talent, he would be a player in today’s world!”
“Misfortune?”
Lin Feng frowned and asked.
“Indeed! It is said that Bai Feiyu had a beloved woman named Murong Qian’er, who was the little princess of the ancient Murong family. At that time, although Bai Feiyu was strong, he was still nothing compared to the powerful Murong family.”
“The Murong family did not want them to be together, so they secretly plotted during the ancient calamity, leading to Bai Feiyu being besieged by the Demon God Clan’s experts, resulting in severe injuries and death!”
“It’s a pity that the Murong family calculated everything but did not foresee that Murong Qian’er was deeply in love with Bai Feiyu and went to stop it, ultimately leading to both of their deaths!”
Foolish Dragon said with a click of his tongue.
Lin Feng fell silent upon hearing this.
What Foolish Dragon said did not match the account he had seen in the scroll from the tomb.
In other words,
The White Robe Sword Master died without knowing that the Murong family had harmed him!
“I heard that there is still a daughter of theirs alive. Now, considering the time, it has been several thousand years. This orphan must not have had it easy in the Murong family!”
Foolish Dragon suddenly said.
“Surely it can’t be that bad? After all, she is the daughter of Murong Qian’er…”
“You don’t understand! The Murong family is cunning and treacherous, having connections with several divine clans during ancient times, so they preserved most of their strength during the calamity! Such a family would not treat the daughter of the White Robe Sword Master well!”
“Of course, all of this has nothing to do with us!”
After Foolish Dragon finished speaking, Lin Feng nodded and suddenly thought of the matters on the West Coast, prompting him to ask.
“Foolish Dragon, I have a favor to ask. Can you help me out?”
“What is it?”
Foolish Dragon asked.
“I need to kill a prodigy of the Demon God Clan and am worried about being besieged by the higher-ups of the Demon God Clan, so if you could step in, that would be best!”
Lin Feng said.
“Forget it! I advise you not to go. Do you know what the Demon God Clan represents?”
“The ancient human race had eight great families, and the divine clans also had eight great divine clans!”
“The Demon God Clan ranks among the top three of these eight divine clans. Even the Angel Clan, the Darkborn Clan, and our demon clan must show them respect!”
Foolish Dragon couldn’t help but roll his eyes, finding Lin Feng’s idea amusing.
Lin Feng’s gaze shifted slightly upon hearing this.
Long before, when he heard the lame old man say that his master and senior brother were blocked and unable to intervene, he had vaguely guessed that the Demon God Clan was not simple. Now, hearing Foolish Dragon say this, it was indeed the case!
“Kid, you don’t really think that the ancient calamity was a massacre against the human race initiated by the various divine clans, do you?”
At this moment, Foolish Dragon suddenly asked with an exaggerated expression.
“Isn’t it?”
Lin Feng frowned tightly.
From the clues he currently had,
The ancient cultivation civilization was flourishing, and the divine clans descended from the heavens, intending to exterminate the human race, which led to the human-divine war and the ancient calamity…
“Of course not! The real reason for the ancient calamity was that the path to immortality was severed, and someone wanted to reopen it. The divine clans were merely passively involved!”
“In other words, some divine clans were just pawns!”
Foolish Dragon replied solemnly.
Lin Feng’s expression slightly changed upon hearing this, and he found it hard to calm down.
“Kid, focus on your cultivation and don’t stir up trouble! Wait until you step into the tribulation stage before discussing these matters!”
“This world is not as simple as you think. Only by reaching the tribulation stage will you have the qualification to touch some secrets and know some truths of the immortal path!”
Foolish Dragon patted Lin Feng’s shoulder with an air of wisdom before turning to leave.
He only shared so much because of his fondness for Xiao Lianlian; otherwise, he wouldn’t bother to waste words…
……
Not long after Foolish Dragon left,
Chen Shan hummed a happy tune and walked over with a spring in his step.
He first briefly recounted the matters regarding Ye Tianxin and Feng Ling’er,
Then he said some strange things,
Like, “Good son-in-law, if I were to find you a future mother-in-law, would you mind?”
And, “Good son-in-law, I heard you have a versatile technique. Can you teach me a bit?”
“Have you found your second spring?”
Lin Feng asked keenly.
“What do you mean by second spring? My first spring hasn’t even passed yet!”
Chen Shan replied unhappily.
Lin Feng was somewhat speechless upon hearing this.
His father-in-law usually seemed honest,
But at critical moments, he always liked to play with some flashy things.
However, he was still his father-in-law, so he had to take care of him and help out.
“I do have a versatile technique called ‘Law Manifesting Heaven and Earth,’ but you’re just a martial artist and can’t perform it! However, I can write you a prescription. You can gather the herbs, brew the soup, and drink it; I guarantee you’ll be full of vigor!”
As Lin Feng spoke, he took out paper and pen to write a prescription.
“Great! Wonderful!”
Chen Shan exclaimed excitedly and couldn’t help but sing a happy tune.
