Martial God Asura

Chapter 6085: The Challenge from the Netherworld Sect

“Young friend Chu Feng, could there be a misunderstanding? It has been a long time since any Heavenly God has appeared in the world of cultivation,” Bitter Reminiscence asked.

He thought Chu Feng might have mistaken pinnacle True God for a Heavenly God, which wouldn’t be surprising since the latter hadn’t reached True God. Song Luoyi might be a prodigy, but it was hard to believe she could surpass everyone else to reach Heavenly God.

It didn’t make sense to him.

Before Chu Feng could say a word, Wang Qiang interjected, “This old man... N-n-no, I mean, old monk, you have been stuck here for t-t-too long. Heavenly Gods aren’t just a thing of the legends anymore.

“My brother’s foolish g-g-grandfather is a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist. My Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master has reached Heavenly God too. There are p-p-plenty of Heavenly Gods among the Ancient Era’s cultivators. Is it that surprising that my brother’s grandmother is a Heavenly God too?”

Bitter Reminiscence fell silent. The world outside had changed so much that he struggled to come to terms.

“Elder, the flames that destroyed the Pill Dao Immortal Sect cannot be extinguished, and they are spreading as time passes. May I ask if this is the means of the Golden Dragon Flame Sect?” Chu Feng asked Song Yuwei, wanting to get more information from her.

“This... I’m not sure if our Golden Dragon Flame Sect’s flames can reach that level, but I have heard of a rumor that I’m unsure of its authenticity,” Song Yuwei replied.

“What’s the rumor?” Chu Feng asked.

“Our Golden Dragon Flame Sectmembers practice a profound skill called Nine Tiers Golden Dragon Flame. This profound skill was said to have been created by our sect founder, and it comprises nine tiers, as the name suggests.

“Our sect founder has only reached the sixth tier, but he still became a renowned figure in the world of cultivation in his era. He never reached the peak, but our Golden Dragon Flame Sect stood on equal terms with the Pill Dao Immortal Sect in that era.

“Due to that, there has been a rumor both within and outside the sect that our sect founder found the Nine Tiers Golden Dragon Flame; he wasn’t its creator. I am revealing this information not to tarnish our founder’s reputation but to tell you that the Nine Tiers Golden Dragon Flame is a formidable profound skill, just that no one has been able to master it.

“Someone once stole our Nine Tiers Golden Dragon Flame, but they couldn’t draw out the profound skill’s true prowess and eventually gave up on it. Our Golden Dragon Flame Sect is the only power that still insists on practicing it.

“Our young miss does possess outstanding talent. She reached the sixth tier at a young age, and there was a good chance she could have reached the seventh. I suspect she could have reached the eighth tier if she continued practicing it.

“Even the seventh tier wields strength beyond my comprehension, let alone the eighth.

“While Heavenly Gods are unfathomably powerful, I believe that if my young miss had continued to cultivate, given her aptitude for Nine Tiers Golden Dragon Flame, it’s not impossible for her to have reached Heavenly God,” Song Yuwei revealed her analysis.

“Elder, it i-i-is the truth! I wouldn’t be surprised if my b-b-brother’s grandmother reached the tenth tier of that profound skill!” Wang Qiang smirked.

“The profound skill only has nine tiers.” Chu Feng looked at Wang Qiang.

“I bet it’ll be a p-p-piece of cake for someone of our grandmother’s talent to create the tenth tier,” Wang Qiang replied confidently.

“That’s true.” Chu Feng chuckled.

Wang Qiang looked like he was talking nonsense, but Chu Feng knew that he was being serious. It was because he trusted Chu Feng that he trusted Chu Feng’s grandmother too.

Chu Feng didn’t think his grandmother would create a tenth tier, but she could have reached the eighth or even the ninth tier.

Talent should be hereditary. His talent came from his father and his mother, but his father’s talent was equally monstrous. His father’s talent must have come from his grandfather and grandmother.

Following that, Chu Feng and Song Yuwei buried the remains of the Golden Dragon Flame Sect’s predecessors.

As for Jia Lingyi, Chu Feng and Song Yuwei thought that Chu Feng’s grandmother must have spared Jia Lingyi for a reason, and it was not too difficult to fathom her rationale behind that.

Jia Lingyi was highly arrogant, but her sect had been destroyed, and everything she took pride in had unraveled. The person she had envied was standing at a height she would never reach. Death would have come as a solace to her. The best way to punish her was to keep her alive.

Thus, Chu Feng decided to release Jia Lingyi and let her fend for herself.

Chu Feng and Wang Qiang continued chatting a lot with Song Yuwei and Bitter Reminiscence. The latter two were curious to know what Chu Feng had been through.

Time passed.

Song Yuwei and Bitter Reminiscence slowly recovered from the shock and came to terms with recent events. Song Yuwei was not the type to smile, but there was now a radiant smile on her face.

She thought Chu Feng had brought back plenty of good news.

Rather than the destruction of the Situ World Spiritist Clan and the Pill Dao Immortal Sect or avenging the Golden Dragon Flame Sect, she was more delighted to learn that Chu Feng’s grandmother had reached Heavenly God.

As long as Chu Feng’s grandmother stayed safe, it was only a matter of time before they crossed paths. She looked forward to the day she reunited with Chu Feng’s grandmother.

Chu Feng and Wang Qiang brought Song Yuwei, Bitter Reminiscence, and the newly awakened Yue Ling out for a stroll. Those three had been trapped in the cavern for so long that they looked forward to seeing the outside world again.

They even intentionally chose a crowded place.

They remained concealed, but Song Yuwei and Bitter Reminiscence beamed with pride when they heard others talking about Chu Feng. Yue Ling’s eyes glowed with admiration.

All of a sudden, the clouds billowed, and the sky brightened.

A bright red light appeared in space, eventually forming a row of words. These words were conjured using a special means, allowing everyone to perceive them regardless of cultivation level.

A huge commotion broke out.

I am Baili Zilin, a disciple of the Netherworld Sect. Chu Feng is undeserving of his title as the strongest prodigy; it was claimed in the absence of our Netherworld Sect.

Today, our Netherworld Sect shall officially return to the world of cultivation, and we will be claiming the title of the strongest prodigy. I, Baili Zilin, shall issue a challenge to Chu Feng for a showdown one month from now at the Pulse Ignition Ordinary Realm of the Bloodline Galaxy’s Pulse Ignition Starfield.

There, we shall decide who deserves the title of the strongest prodigy!
