Chapter 1317: Chapter 874: Showdown in the Battle Realm
"Hehe, that’s good then!"
Hearing this, Lin Feng finally felt at ease. As long as the two of them broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm, it would be enough for them to sit in town over Tushan Town.
Then Lin Feng gave detailed instructions. After Sikong Yan and the other eight left, the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace would be jointly managed by Emperor Shih and Hai Mingjiang.
He also arranged a development plan for the next few years for the two of them, and left behind a small amount of Low Grade Spirit Crystals.
Only then did he reluctantly bid farewell to everyone and leave Tushan Town.
One hundred thousand li away from Tushan Town, high up in the sky.
Lin Feng and Xi’er stood facing each other.
"Xi’er, go back. You don’t need to see me off any further." Lin Feng’s face was full of tenderness as he held her jade-like hand.
After he left Tushan Town, Xi’er had escorted him for a hundred thousand li.
"Brother Lin Feng, after this parting, I don’t know when we will be able to see each other again." A look of desolation hung on Xi’er’s pretty face. She gripped Lin Feng’s hand tightly, unwilling to let go.
After she and Lin Feng were married, they actually hadn’t spent much time together.
Even in the Heavenly Vault World, in the years before the Trialists arrived, they had each been busy with Cultivation. The time they could spend together was very short.
Seeing this, Lin Feng sighed inwardly. In life, joyous gatherings are rare; only separations are many!
He gently pulled Xi’er into his arms. Breathing in the fragrance of her hair, Lin Feng’s heart was also filled with reluctance.
"It won’t be too long. I’m still counting on you to give me a child!" Though he was reluctant in his heart, Lin Feng spoke teasingly.
Hearing this, Xi’er’s pretty face instantly flushed red. She couldn’t help burying her head in Lin Feng’s chest.
She had long since wanted to bear a child for Lin Feng!
However, in the world of Martial Arts, for Advanced Martial Artists, it wasn’t very easy to pass down their bloodline.
The higher a Martial Artist’s Cultivation, the lower the chance of having children.
Of course, the higher the parents’ Cultivation, the better the Talent of their offspring would be. There were both advantages and disadvantages.
The higher a Martial Artist’s Cultivation, the better their physical constitution. Every great Realm was a fundamental transformation.
But it was also because of these transformations again and again that a Martial Artist’s bloodline would continuously evolve, gradually breaking away from the level of mortals and becoming a higher form of life.
This was what resulted in the fact that Advanced Martial Artists found it very difficult to leave behind descendants.
This could be considered the way of the Heavenly Dao, keeping all living beings in balance.
Otherwise, if those Martial Saint Realm and even Void God Realm Martial Artists were to have many children, and each inherited their parents’ Talent, wouldn’t they dominate the Universe?
"There will be, in the future." Xi’er’s pretty face was crimson as she spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz.
The two of them held each other quietly, savoring this moment before their imminent separation.
"Right, Brother Lin Feng, those three people of the Witch Clan are still inside the Void Divine Map!" After a long time, Xi’er suddenly spoke.
She was referring to Wu Xian and the other two Witch Clan geniuses. Lin Feng had given her the Void Divine Map, and the three had always been in the Divine Map Space.
"Leave them all to me." Lin Feng said. These three would still be useful to him in the future.
After that, Wu Xian and the other two were released by Xi’er from the Void Divine Map, and then taken by Lin Feng into the Jade Bracelet Space.
After Lin Feng and Xi’er quietly leaned against each other for an hour, he finally took his leave and headed toward the Divine Martial Academy.
High up in the endless sky, amidst the boundless sea of clouds, a streak of Sword light shot past, piercing through the clouds and stirring up a violent gale.
Within the Sword light, a young man sat cross-legged with eyes closed.
The young man was naturally Lin Feng.
As he hurried along, he calmed his qi and mind, fusing his Divine Soul with Stars.
This process was very slow. He needed to constantly attempt, constantly communicate, constantly let the two become mutually dependent.
The day of his agreed battle with Leng Jiang was already close at hand. He had to seize every moment.
While Lin Feng was rushing on his way, the several Nine Palaces Lords of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace also set out on their journeys, stepping into this brand-new world.
They did not know what the future would be like. Perhaps a broad and open road, rising upon Ancient Zhou Star and making their names known throughout the Ancient Spirit Star River.
But it was also possible they would fall in this unfamiliar world. However, they did not regret it.
They were all geniuses. Naturally, they did not want to be Bound within the small Tushan Town. That was not their path.
However, there was one thing that was the same in all their hearts: they came from the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace. No matter what the future held, no matter how far they went, the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace would forever be their root.
Time flew by in a flash.
He had no idea how much time had passed before Lin Feng finally opened his eyes.
In front of him, a gigantic Fallen Star appeared within his sight, its colossal mass seemingly severing heaven from earth.
Lin Feng let out a sigh. Today was the date of the appointed duel, yet he still hadn’t evolved his Battle Soul.
It wasn’t that he’d run into some insurmountable difficulty; it was simply that the time was far too tight.
Yama Demon Saint had already told him all the key points about evolving the Battle Soul with the Star. That knowledge shouldn’t be fake, but to evolve the Battle Soul and break through to the Martial Emperor Realm in just a few short days was still far too difficult.
He already had that imminent feeling of fusion, but he just couldn’t succeed.
"Even if I don’t break through, I still have to fight!" Lin Feng muttered to himself in his heart, utterly unwilling to back down.
Though he usually kept a low profile, he was more proud in his bones than anyone. This was the invincible heart forged through years of being unrivaled among his peers.
When facing a challenge from someone of the same generation, he simply could not allow himself to retreat.
Very soon, Lin Feng entered Divine Martial Academy and walked into the South Garden.
The battle realm was where the Divine Martial Academy Disciples sparred. Its entrance was right in Tongyu Hall; Lin Feng had already asked around clearly.
After returning to the academy, he didn’t stop for even a moment. He went straight to Tongyu Hall and then stepped through the Light Gate into the battle realm.
As the space before his eyes shifted, Lin Feng found himself above a vast ocean.
The sea stretched as far as the eye could see, the waters surging and rolling, rumbling with a thunderous roar.
Looking up into the distance, he saw more than a dozen islands sitting on the surface of the sea.
These islands formed a ring, circling together to form a massive circle.
And at the center of that circle, on a stretch of sea spanning ten thousand miles, two people were currently battling.
The violent clash had stirred up howling winds over the ten-thousand-mile stretch of water, waves soaring to the heavens, erupting with earth-shaking booms.
On the surrounding dozen or so islands there were also quite a few people, all watching the fight, with occasional bursts of noisy chatter.
This was the place where Divine Martial Academy’s Disciples sparred. The dozen or so islands served as spectator stands, while the ten-thousand-mile-wide sea region at the center was the Battle Platform.
Lin Feng was secretly surprised; he hadn’t expected that besides him, others were also dueling in the battle realm.
He immediately flew toward one of the islands, but before he even reached it, he felt a sharp gaze slash toward him and land on his body.
This gaze was incomparably fierce, brimming with chilling killing intent that made one’s whole body go cold.
Lin Feng turned his head, following the gaze. He saw Leng Jiang on another island.
Their eyes met, and invisible sparks flew.
Leng Jiang let out a cold laugh, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
Lin Feng’s face was expressionless. The other party’s killing intent was completely undisguised; it looked like he was planning to kill him!
Beside Leng Jiang stood the luxuriously dressed young man He Chuan Yan, who also gave a cold laugh, his eyes filled with mocking amusement.
They had arrived several hours ago and hadn’t seen Lin Feng show up. They’d been worried that Lin Feng might not come.
Now that they saw Lin Feng finally appear, they felt relieved!
Whoosh!
In an instant, Lin Feng’s figure descended onto the island.
Standing at the foot of a small slope on the island, Lin Feng looked toward the battle being fought on the central sea.
The combatants were two young men, both quite strong. Their Cultivation should both be around the Third Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm, and the fight was extremely intense.
However, the two seemed evenly matched, neither able to gain an overwhelming advantage.
"Lin Feng, with your current Cultivation, there’s basically no way you can win!" Yama Demon Saint’s voice rang out in Lin Feng’s mind, clearly not optimistic about him.
He was also worried that Lin Feng would be killed; if that happened, he himself would probably be finished too.
In this Divine Martial Academy, there was simply no way he could escape.
"Then do you have any way for me to win?" Lin Feng asked. As a Martial Saint powerhouse, the other party might have some formidable Ultimate Skill that could let him turn the tables.
"I do indeed have a way, but it’s already too late now!" Yama Demon Saint sighed.
Hearing this, Lin Feng’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch a few times. The other guy had a way to help him win, yet hadn’t said anything earlier, only to tell him now that it was too late.
"What way? Out with it!" Lin Feng said darkly.
"Forget it, best not mention it. If you can survive this time, I can teach you!" Yama Demon Saint said.
"Fuck!" Lin Feng was slightly enraged in his heart. This old bastard was messing with him!
