Chapter 613: Are You Very Old?
In the blink of an eye, nearly six hours had passed.
Chu Feng had been sitting still with his eyes closed inside the Monument Tower, focusing solely on refining the Sword Qi within his body.
It was like forging refined iron, heating it until red-hot and then hammering it out thin, folding it over and heating it again for more hammering.
This process was repeated over and over until after many iterations, almost no impurities remained, making it comparable to hundred-refined steel.
The Sword Qi in Chu Feng's body had essentially gone through a similar process.
Of course, as of now, all he had done was refine all the Sword Qi in his body once. Faintly, there was a wisp of pure energy swirling above his head.
Just as he was preparing to refine it a second time, an overpowering force of suction moved him from the Third Level to the First Level.
He only felt a blur before his eyes, and he had already been transported elsewhere.
The particularly comfortable environment was no more.
While cultivating on the Third Level, it felt like being immersed in Spiritual Liquid. On the First Level, the spiritual energy was still considerable but far from matching that of the Third Level.
As soon as Chu Feng was moved to the First Level, Qiu Jizi took a deep gulp of his wine, muttering to himself, "Impressive, indeed. He's only taken six hours and has already begun to grasp the basics of the Mixed Element Unlimited Skill. Even if he hasn't understood one-tenth of the essence, it's still quite remarkable."
When Chu Feng had refined all the Sword Qi in his body earlier, and a wisp of pure energy appeared above his head, Qiu Jizi had seen it all very clearly.
"This young fellow dared to say that the wine I brewed doesn't taste good, calling it a perverted drink. I truly can't wait to see how delicious the wine he brews will be," Qiu Jizi was looking forward immensely to Chu Feng's future achievements and the fine wine he would brew.
After Chu Feng descended, he was burping like a Wine Immortal, taking sips from his gourd now and then.
In the end, he was sprawled out on the ground, fast asleep.
...
When the Array's power moved Chu Feng to the First Level, it immediately caught the attention of everyone there.
Dongxue opened her eyes wide in surprise, gazing at Chu Feng.
She couldn't help but express her amazement.
Due to her remarkable eyesight, she noticed the changes in Chu Feng at a glance.
"Tsk tsk, this young man is truly amazing! He has already gone through a transformation; the Sword Qi in his body carries a trace of the origin's aura. It seems that the Cultivation Technique he chose must be the extremely difficult Chaotic Unlimited Skill!"
Dongxue's face showed an expression of intense shock.
"Kid, which Cultivation Technique did you choose?" Han Sheng threw a knowing look at a follower behind him. An Inner Sect Disciple immediately stepped forward two paces and asked Chu Feng.
Qin Shan was also staring intently at Chu Feng, eager to know which Cultivation Technique he was practicing.
"No comment!"
Chu Feng gave that questioning Inner Sect Disciple, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, an indifferent glance. Yet, the tone of that Disciple was as unpleasant as if he had just swallowed excrement, utterly odious.
It was a tone of superiority, as if he were speaking like an Emperor.
"Chu Feng, how dare you speak to Senior Brother Lu Qingyuan that way, are you tired of living?" Qin Shan also took a step forward, adding insults to injuries.
Qin Shan was very cunning; he was trying to instigate the animosity between Chu Feng and Lu Qingyuan even further.
"This Chu-named Waste took just five hours to ascend the Chuan Gong Hall, which is truly Devil-like. Rumors claim that the shorter the time taken to ascend the Chuan Gong Hall, the greater the potential. Although its truth is uncertain, I had set a five-year agreement with him. Better to believe it's possible than not."
"Eliminating this youngster early could indeed relieve me of a great concern."
Qin Shan had been closely monitoring Chu Feng. Every time he heard news of Chu Feng's astonishing progress, it unnerved him.
Lately, he hadn't been able to sleep soundly or peacefully due to the invisible pressure that was mounting.
Only by completely eliminating Chu Feng could he feel at ease.
Qin Shan originally wanted to draw hatred towards Chu Feng, but instead, Chu Feng responded with a cold smile, fixing him with that strange gaze, "It seems that Senior Brother Qin Shan truly has a talent for being a dog and a slave! Not only do you look down on others like a blind dog, now you are even barking madly at the side as someone's henchman. Haha... I really feel sad for you. Instead of being a decent person, you choose to act as a dog."
Chu Feng's words were indeed too hurtful.
He insulted Qin Shan to the point where he was dripping with dog blood. Yet, Qin Shan couldn't even retort.
Snicker~!
Dongxue couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker secretly. Many other onlookers also laughed out loud.
This also made Qin Shan's face even more unbearable.
"You... you dead waste, who exactly are you calling a dog? I demand a duel with you!" Qin Shan was so furious that he was almost going insane, his expression showing he wished he could flay and devour Chu Feng alive.
"Waste, challenging me to a duel? Do you dare?"
Qin Shan glared at Chu Feng, his eyes aflame with anger.
"It's bad enough that Senior Brother Qin acts like a dog, but it seems your memory isn't too good either! Haven't we agreed on a five-year pact?"
"If I remember correctly, only three months have passed. There are still four years and nine months left till our five-year pact. When the time comes, I will surely grant your wish and decide the winner on the stage."
Chu Feng relied on the fact that they were inside the Chuan Gong Hall, where no one dared to start a fight.
He was therefore fearless, deliberately using words to humiliate Qin Shan a bit, considering it a collection of some early interest.
"Wahhh... I'm so angry, I curse your ancestors..."
Qin Shan was so angry he was going crazy, his fists clenched with a crackling sound, but he dared not to make a move.
"Young man, you should be more humble and low-key in life, otherwise, you won't even know how you died," Han Sheng stood out and spoke.
However, he put on the air of a senior, righteously reprimanding Chu Feng with an old-fashioned tone.
Both his little brothers were humiliated by Chu Feng, naturally, Han Sheng felt compelled to stand up for them. If he directly attacked Chu Feng, it would be beneath his dignity.
So, he cleverly thought of this method.
It not only showcased his lofty status, but it also did not appear as bullying the weak. On the contrary, it also reflected his caring and instructive heart for his juniors.
"Is Senior Brother Han Sheng really that old?" Chu Feng retorted, nearly choking Han Sheng with his response.
"Lacking respect for seniors and hopeless!" Han Sheng coldly spat out eight words, his complexion very ugly.
"Why are you all picking on Junior Brother Chu Feng, a newcomer? I won't allow this." Dongxue had a favorable impression of Chu Feng, she stood out like a heroine, protecting Chu Feng. "Junior Brother Chu, come sit over here. The lecture is about to start soon, it only happens once every half a month, it's a rare opportunity."
Dongxue waved at Chu Feng.
Lecture?
The first level of the Chuan Gong Hall was set up like a preaching hall, Chu Feng never expected it would actually be used for lectures.
Chu Feng looked around the hall and noticed that most of the mats were already occupied.
However, not many people were seated on those thirty-six Cold Jade Mats in the front row.
There were many left empty.
Seeing Dongxue's friendly attitude towards Chu Feng, a chilling light flashed through Han Sheng's eyes.
He didn't care about Dongxue, but rather about her master.
The one closest to the water gets the moon first.
Chu Feng establishing a relationship with Dongxue was not a good thing. Sometimes, the toad actually gets the swan meat unexpectedly.
