Chapter 489: Chapter 445 Talent Skill_2
He took out a dozen or so secret manuals from his Storage Ring, all of them body movement martial skills.
Currently, Lin Feng’s overall strength could be considered as unrivaled among his peers, but only his movement speed was a weak point. He planned to use these few days before the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace emerged to cultivate a profound movement technique.
These dozen or so body movement martial skills, naturally, were all his spoils of war.
Lin Feng flipped through the secret manuals one by one, starting to examine them.
The lowest level among these body movement martial skills was Level Three Middle Grade, with Level Three Upper Grade being the most common, and only four were Level Four.
Among them, three were Level Four Low Grade, and only one was Level Four Middle Grade.
Naturally, the higher the level of the manual, the better. Lin Feng put away the other manuals, only keeping this Level Four Middle Grade body technique secret manual.
Lin Feng scrutinized it carefully.
"Level Four Middle Grade movement technique, once cultivated to the Great Achievement Realm, will grant agility like a roaming dragon, moving unfettered across the heavens..."
After inspecting the body technique secret manual, Lin Feng nodded to himself.
This movement technique was many times more powerful than the one he had cultivated.
"I choose you!"
Lin Feng smiled slightly.
At this moment, his Cold Ice Communication Talisman vibrated again.
Lin Feng checked it and heard Han Qianze’s voice.
"Lin Feng, at a location 1,900 li due east, there is a dilapidated ancient city where a bunch of geniuses are gathered, easily three to four hundred people. However, there are many Earth Martial Masters Seventh Layer and Eighth Layer experts. We are definitely not their match, so I returned directly. Shall we change direction and search elsewhere?"
Hearing the message from Han Qianze, Lin Feng was overjoyed and quickly responded, "Don’t come back, I’m heading over now!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Lin Feng’s figure unfolded as he flew rapidly due east.
Han Qianze, thinking that Lin Feng was waiting for an opportunity to act and snatch some isolated weaklings, didn’t think too much about it.
As Lin Feng flew, he also informed the other three to meet at the ancient city.
Within these two thousand li, there were hardly any people left, no need to continue the search.
Shuoyuan Ancient City is a city left over from ancient times.
This city is said to have been built by the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace, serving as an outpost of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace.
However, due to the passage of time, this city has long been weathered through countless years, crumbling and nowhere near its former grandeur.
At the moment, nearly three hundred geniuses from various domains gathered in the ancient city, and people kept arriving.
Because in this city there is an ancient formation relic that can accelerate cultivation.
Cultivating within this formation can speed up the process by five or six times, extremely formidable, attracting numerous geniuses to come.
Many people are no longer planning to treasure hunt in the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm, because with so many people, and every time the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm opens, many geniuses enter and the treasures within the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm have been nearly picked clean.
Thus, many people have come to Shuoyuan Ancient City to cultivate quietly while waiting for the opening of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace.
In the center of Shuoyuan Ancient City, there are nine huge white jade stone pillars, forming a circle with a thousand zhang in diameter, and in the center of the pillars, on the circular plaza, a large group of young geniuses sat cross-legged, all earnestly cultivating.
Lv Tian, a genius from the Great Yan Domain who once pursued Lin Feng, as well as many geniuses from the Great Thousand Domain, were present.
Ao Wushuang, ranked second in the Great Thousand Domain, as well as the siblings Hong Qingtian and Hong Qingxuan, were also among the crowd.
"Hong Junior Sister, as the Fourth Elder’s top disciple, you truly are the heavenly favored daughter of our Heavenly Spirit Sect. In just two months of not seeing you, your cultivation has reached Earth Martial Master Fifth Layer. With your cultivation speed, there is a chance for you to enter the Thousand Pride List of the East Continent within five years!"
Next to Ninth Princess Hong Qingxuan, a splendidly dressed young man said with a smile on his face.
This splendidly dressed young man had handsome features, sharp eyebrows, a sword-like gaze, distinct facial angles, and a confident air in his eyes, easily attracting many young women to glance over.
Ao Wushuang sat cross-legged at a distance, eyeing the splendidly dressed young man, frowning with a somewhat ugly expression.
The close proximity between the nobleman in luxurious clothing and the Ninth Princess filled his heart with haze, yet he dared not make the slightest move, nor did he dare to even approach the Ninth Princess for a conversation.
For the aura emanating from that youth in luxurious clothing was simply too terrifying.
Peak of Earth Martial Master Eighth Layer!
The counterpart was none other than the unparalleled genius ranked third on the Hundred Extremes List of the Xuan Domain, Chu Yunfeng!
The Ninth Princess, her face still veiled, let out a light chuckle upon hearing the words of Chu Yunfeng in luxurious clothing, her voice gently saying, "Brother Chu is jesting. Compared to you, Qingxuan still has a long way to go!"
"Do not be modest, Sister Hong!"
Chu Yunfeng let out a bitter smile, shaking his head and saying, "All I have over you is a few more years, which is why I gained my current cultivation. It’s nothing to speak of!"
Although Chu Yunfeng was modest in his words, his eyes were filled with pride, clearly quite pleased with himself.
"By the way, Sister Hong, since you’ve entered the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm through the Great Thousand Domain entrance, you must have ranked first at the Hundred Extremes Tournament of the Great Thousand Domain, right?"
Chu Yunfeng sought a topic to engage in casual conversation with the Ninth Princess.
Upon hearing Chu Yunfeng’s words, the Ninth Princess fell silent for a moment, the image of Lin Feng and the scene of Lin Feng’s reversal in the Hundred Extremes Tournament flashing through her mind.
"What’s wrong? Could it be that you didn’t take first place, Sister Hong?"
Seeing the Ninth Princess silent, Chu Yunfeng frowned and asked in astonishment.
The Ninth Princess nodded her beautiful head lightly and sighed, "Second place, I was defeated by someone!"
"What?"
Chu Yunfeng was startled, then a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, saying, "Who was it that defeated you? When I see him again, I’ll make him kneel and apologize to you!"
The Ninth Princess, upon hearing this, showed a hint of displeasure in her beautiful eyes, shook her head, and said, "He did nothing wrong. It was just a platform match, and my loss was due to my inferior skills."
"Sister Hong, you speak amiss!"
Chu Yunfeng shook his head and said coldly, "How substantial could the talent of someone from a minor domain be? No doubt he relied on being older, with much higher cultivation than you, to achieve his victory. When I see him again, I’ll make him realize that with his meager strength, he is nothing in the Xuan Domain, not even worthy to be called a genius!"
Chu Yunfeng was determined that if he encountered the person who had defeated the Ninth Princess, he would severely humiliate him, to also demonstrate his own dominance in front of the Ninth Princess.
Ao Wushuang had been paying attention to Chu Yunfeng and the Ninth Princess the whole time, and upon hearing Chu Yunfeng’s words, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
"Lin Feng, oh Lin Feng, as long as you go to the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace, you will inevitably encounter Chu Yunfeng, then let’s see how you handle him!"
...
At this moment, in the sky, over thirty figures were speeding through the air, each one clad in a black robe, their bodies exuding a thick Blood Evil Qi—clearly members of the Blood Luo Hall, with Mo Yue among them.
"Gentlemen, we are three hundred miles away from the Shuoyuan Ancient City. There are many people in the Ancient City. Let’s go and kill them, drain all their Essence Blood, and plunder their treasures!"
The leading black-robed, thin young man spoke in a voice devoid of any emotion.
"Xue Yin, our task from the prince of the Blood Luo Hall is to sweep through the Shuoyuan Ancient City. We cannot disappoint him!"
Another black-robed young man with a mole on his mouth said beside the thin black-robed youth.
"Don’t worry! With Chu Zhantian, Lei Xiao, Jiang Taixu, and that ’Wenren Tianyi’ all occupying various precious land sites, the Ancient City will at most harbor a few Earth Martial Master Eighth Layer talents. With our strength, killing them would not be difficult!"
The thin black-robed person, Xue Yin, elaborated.
Although these thirty-odd people were just a small part of the forces of the Blood Luo Hall, with ten of them being masters of the Earth Martial Master Eighth Layer, and no less than fifteen at the Earth Martial Master Seventh Layer—and all of them exceptional talents—Xue Yin was a top-notch expert ranked second on the Hundred Extremes List of the Cloud Domain, and the mole-mouthed young man was a top-notch expert ranked fourth on the Hundred Extremes List of the Dragon Region; with their abilities, exterminating the three hundred people in the Shuoyuan Ancient City would not be an issue.
In the entire Heavenly Vault Divine Realm, after all, those Earth Martial Master Seventh Layer and above experts were a minority. To someone of Xue Yin’s standing, those Earth Martial Master Fifth Layer, Sixth Layer geniuses would be swept away with a wave of his hand.
Furthermore, they possessed a very powerful trump card, and even faced with an Earth Martial Master Ninth Layer genius, they would still be able to put up a fight.
"We’re here!"
In no time, Xue Yin and the Blood Luo Hall’s forces approached the Shuoyuan Ancient City, heading straight for the central plaza where people were congregated.
