Martial God Asura

Chapter 6652: Your Son Resembles His Mother

Some time passed.

All the power fragments extracted by the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion to date had been delivered into Jie Tianran’s hands.

Despite having received a massive bundle of God’s Era’s power, Jie Tianran remained in a brooding mood. While he could sense the potent energy within, he was still unable to determine its use.

Until he could figure out how to put it to use, it was nothing more than an artwork.

On top of that, the power fragments were scattered like a formation, and there was even a formation core. There had to be something here that he hadn’t deciphered yet, and that further stoked his unease.

“What do you think, elder? Do we need to refine the power before it reveals its true properties?” Jie Tianran asked.

“It’s possible, but I can’t tell what kind of formation is required for the refinement,” the old entity replied.

“Could it be this formation?” Jie Tianran gestured at the formation core.

“Are you suggesting that the two formations can be activated?” the old entity asked.

“I’m not sure, which is why I wanted to seek your opinion, elder. What are your thoughts on this matter?” Jie Tianran asked.

“You’re overthinking it. The formation is likely a feint. You shouldn’t be thinking that this formation core is important just because Chu Feng has been here. Have you forgotten what I told you earlier about not letting your grandson lead you by the nose?” the old entity said.

“You’re right, elder,” Jie Tianran replied, but that didn’t lessen his unease.

His instincts as a world spiritist told him that this matter was not as simple as it looked.

In truth, the old entity was also unsure. He had refuted the formation because he didn’t know how to take control of it. If he admitted that it was a formation, he would also be admitting that his eyes were not sharp enough to see through it.

So, he could only gamble that the formation was useless, but the fact was that he was less confident than Jie Tianran. He could only pray in his heart.

Don’t let it be a formation. Even if it’s a formation, don’t let that brat, Chu Feng, decipher the method to channel it. Otherwise, my reputation will be sullied.

...

On the other hand, while the Chu Clan Alliance had incurred some casualties in their clashes against the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, most of them successfully extracted God’s Era’s power fragments and gathered them in the Totem Galaxy’s formation core.

The preparations were in place. They were only waiting for Chu Feng to return.

In the meantime, Chu Feng’s complexion finally returned to normal. By the time he got up, he had already fully grasped the rank four God Taboo, Soul Flame Formula.

“Have you succeeded?” Song Changsheng asked.

He could already tell that Chu Feng had succeeded despite his question. Glancing at his disciple, whose body was still reddened from the searing energy, his admiration for Chu Feng deepened.

Chu Feng’s talent far surpassed not just Fei’s but Xian Miaomiao’s as well.

“Yes, but there’s too little searing energy. Even if I use it sparingly, I can only activate the Soul Flame Formula thrice,” Chu Feng replied.

He finally understood why even a True God like him could use this rank four God Taboo.

Due to the limitations of his body, he couldn’t activate the Soul Flame Formula using normal methods. Instead, he had to rely on the searing energy that had tortured him earlier. He had only stored a limited amount of searing energy, so he could only use the god taboo thrice.

Once he depleted the searing energy, he wouldn’t be able to use this god taboo anymore until his base cultivation rose to rank five Heavenly God level.

“Three times is already good enough. I suspect that my disciple will only be able to use it once, given the imperfections in his execution of the God Taboo, as well as the loss of searing energy while fusing it into his bloodline and storing it.

“But that’s of secondary importance. I prepared this martial skill to save him when he resorts to his forbidden skill. Being able to use the Soul Flame Formula is just an additional benefit,” Song Changsheng said.

Chu Feng could sense how much Song Changsheng cared about Fei.

“Thank you for your help, elder. If not for you, I would still be debilitated right now,” Chu Feng replied.

“Out of curiosity, Chu Feng, did you really intend to withstand the searing energy through sheer willpower?” Song Changsheng asked.

“That’s the only solution I could think of due to the limitations of my capabilities,” Chu Feng replied.

“Miaomiao was right. You are a loyal friend,” Song Changsheng said in admiration.

“Brother Fei put his life on the line to help me. I can’t turn a blind eye to his plight. I’m only doing what is right,” Chu Feng replied honestly.

“Pardon my frankness, but my disciple likely had other intentions in mind when he helped you. He might have lived for a long time, but he is nowhere near as mature as you. If anything, he feels more like the junior here.

“I bet he made a promise and didn’t want to embarrass himself, so he was determined to accomplish it even if it meant putting his life on the line. So...”

Before Song Changsheng could finish his piece, Fei suddenly interjected, “Please stop talking, master. Miss Yu’er is still here. Please spare my pride.”

Feu had opened his eyes and was grumbling indignantly. There was a tinge of redness on his ferocious, thick-skinned face.

“All right, I’ll stop talking. Focus on cultivating. It’s almost like you value your pride higher than your life,” Song Changsheng said with a sigh.

He knew that Fei’s control was not as strong as Chu Feng’s. It was extremely dangerous for him to halt his cultivation halfway through.

“Regardless, Brother Fei has done me a huge favor this time. I’ll remember this debt,” Chu Feng said.

Song Changsheng nodded. “Fei needs more time cultivating. I’ll stay here to protect him, so go ahead and do what you must.”

“I’ll be taking my leave then.” Chu Feng bowed to Song Changsheng.

Little Fishy walked over to Chu Feng’s side and bowed deeply to Song Changsheng. Then, she said with a grin, “Elder, you are the most unfathomable expert I know in the world of cultivation. I hope to see you again the next time big brother is in trouble, too.”

Song Changsheng responded with a faint smile, neither agreeing to nor rejecting her remark.

With that, Chu Feng and Little Fishy quickly made their way over to the formation core realm.

Song Changsheng watched the two departing juniors with a smile. “Chu Xuanyuan, how did a scoundrel like you have such an outstanding son? He probably resembles his mother more.”

In the distant Ninth Galaxy, a middle-aged man dressed in straw garments sneezed.
