Martial God Asura

Chapter 6237: I Don’t Fear Rank Five Heavenly Gods

“You can decipher the formation blueprint? You’re more enigmatic than I thought,” Old Cat remarked.

“It’s not about being enigmatic; we just don’t know each other well enough,” Chu Feng smiled.

“Makes sense. Hahaha!” Old Cat laughed. He could tell Chu Feng was driving at something, as he was also withholding personal information.

Chu Feng and Lord Zhenlong worked together to repair the teleportation talisman paper. It was a complicated process that took a lot of time, but nothing went wrong thanks to the modifications made to the formation blueprint.

“Lord Zhenlong, Brother Chu Feng, I don’t know how I can thank the two of you.” Old Cat held the repaired teleportation talisman paper with an unconcealable grin.

“How far can that teleportation talisman paper teleport? And why is Old Cat so excited?” Eggy asked out of curiosity.

“That teleportation talisman paper can only be fully understood and activated through a special method,” Chu Feng replied.

“I’m guessing that old stray cat is the only one who knows that method. He’s keeping so many secrets from us. Chu Feng, do you think he can be trusted? Isn’t there a chance he might betray you for treasures when the time comes?” Eggy reserved her skepticism.

“Let’s give it a try. There should be kindness in Old Cat, or else he wouldn’t have treated young master Wolf so well,” Chu Feng replied.

“That’s true.” Eggy nodded.

Old Cat swept through the Ancient Era’s War Clan and collected all their treasures. He claimed that those items were worthless, so he didn’t bother giving them to Chu Feng.

Chu Feng wasn’t bothered; he had no complaints as long as Old Cat accompanied him to the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. To be fair, the Nine Secret Skills were already enough to make this a worthwhile trip for him.

Old Cat handed Lord Zhenlong a Cosmos Sack. This was probably the benefit he had promised Lord Zhenlong. Chu Feng couldn’t see through it.

After taking what he wanted, Lord Zhenlong prepared to take his leave.

“Lord Zhenlong, what do you plan to do next?” Chu Feng asked.

“I don’t have anything specific in mind yet. I’ll probably either journey around the world of cultivation or make my way to the Ninth Galaxy,” Lord Zhenlong said.

From those words, Chu Feng understood that Lord Zhenlong’s fate with the Totem Dragon Clan had come to an end. Lord Zhenlong had no intention of returning to the Totem Dragon Clan.

This was not surprising since Lord Zhenlong had now surpassed the Totem Dragon Clan. There was no reason for him to serve them anymore. In the first place, he was merely in a partnership with the Totem Dragon Clan and had fulfilled his obligations to them. He owed nothing to them.

Lord Zhenlong turned to Chu Feng and said, “Young friend Chu Feng, I heard about your conflict with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. I shan’t interfere in your family affair, but I heard from the Totem Dragon Clan that the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion isn’t as simple as it seems. You should tread carefully. You’re a rare talent. I’m only going to the Ninth Galaxy to widen my boundaries, but I’m sure you will make a name for yourself there. I’m still looking forward to boasting about knowing you.”

The usually uptight Lord Zhenlong cracked a rare joke and chuckled. Behind his words carried great expectations for Chu Feng’s future.

Chu Feng clasped his fist and smiled. “I won’t let you down.”

“Good, I’ll look forward to it. Young friend Chu Feng, Old Cat, may fate bring us together in the Ninth Galaxy.”

Lord Zhenlong took his leave. He probably knew of a way out of this formation realm.

Chu Feng and the others couldn’t leave with him as the Immortal Sea Fish Clan was still waiting outside for them.

“Chu Feng, what happened between you and the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion?” Jie Shanxian asked Chu Feng via voice transmission.

She could tell from Chu Feng’s conversation with Old Cat and Lord Zhenlong that something was amiss.

“Elder, I have no grudge against the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, but I do have a conflict with its incumbent mansion master.”

Chu Feng proceeded to tell Jie Shanxian about his history via voice transmission. He decided to be honest because he deduced that she was someone who could draw a line between right and wrong.

Jie Shanxian didn’t comment on the matter after hearing the full story. Instead, she said, “I’d like to go into closed-door training. Your formation space is quite comfortable. Let me stay here for a while longer. However, I won’t help you in your conflict with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.”

“Feel free to stay.” Chu Feng was more than happy to have her.

Even if Jie Shanxian didn’t intervene in his conflict with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, it was still a good thing to have a formidable world spiritist tag along with him.

Jie Shanxian entered Chu Feng’s formation space once more.

The curious Old Cat asked via voice transmission, “Who’s that, Chu Feng? I can’t see through her disguise.”

“It’s an elder I just met. I’m not familiar with her too, but I think she’s trustworthy,” Chu Feng replied.

“You think she’s trustworthy even though you just met her?” Old Cat retorted.

“Aren’t you the same too, Old Cat? You call me brother, but I don’t even know your current cultivation level,” Chu Feng pointed out.

“There’s nothing to hide. I only recovered a portion of my bloodline, so my cultivation is still greatly limited. I’ll have to cultivate from the start. I am currently at rank four Heavenly God level, but my powerful bloodline allows me to rival enemies a cultivation rank stronger. Not even rank five Heavenly Gods are beyond me.

“I have long heard that the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion has an old monster in their ranks. Rest assured. As long as his cultivation doesn’t surpass rank five Heavenly God level, I’ll have my ways of dealing with him,” Old Cat said.

“Old Cat, you are the enigmatic one here. I’m curious to know how strong you were at your peak,” Chu Feng said.

“That’s a secret.”

“Do you know what happened in the final years of the Ancient Era?”

“Afraid not. I have forgotten all about that. I don’t even know who wounded me back then. It’s annoying to not even know who my enemy is when I was reduced to this state,” Old Cat cursed. “Wait a moment, Chu Feng, isn’t it time to part ways? Why did that fellow enter your body? Is she tagging along too?”

“She’ll be cultivating in my body for the time being,” Chu Feng replied.

“What the heck? You’re going to bring that world spiritist of unknown background with us?” Old Cat was unhappy to hear that.

“It’s fine. You’re stronger than her anyway,” Chu Feng replied.

Deep down, he thought that Jie Shanxian might know the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion’s secrets. Even though she said she wouldn’t help him, he still harbored a tinge of hope for her.

“That’s true. She’s not bad, but it isn’t worth a mention to me. Brother Chu Feng, you should be careful with who you associate with. Don’t trust anyone except for yourself. I know you’re smart, but you can be too emotional at times. I’m worried you might trust the wrong person. You can know a person but not their heart,” Old Cat advised.

“Got it.” Chu Feng smiled.

Old Cat’s advice made sense as there were many unreliable people in the world, but Chu Feng would rather believe there were reliable people in the world too, such as Eggy, Zi Ling, Su Rou, Su Mei, Wang Qiang, Little Fishy, and Xianhai Shaoyu,

He had met many conniving and underhanded rascals along the way, but he also met reliable comrades. This made him realize that even though the world could be a cold place, and human hearts were unpredictable, there was always warmth to be found in family members, friends, and lovers.

Family members were more reliable in that regard; friends and lovers would require more prudent judgment.
