Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Divine Valley

“Tianyun Sect is unlikely to intervene, Elder Sect Master Mu, your injuries are serious. I should take you back first,” Huanyang said, perched on the trunk of an ancient tree in the mountains.

The appearance of the Tianyun Sect powerhouse had Mu Tianyun deeply worried.

After the great battle ended, he and Huanyang had been observing from there, but there had been no sign of action from Tianyun Sect.

“I hope so, let’s go.” Mu Tianyun nodded his head, but his heart was still filled with concern.

After a glance in the direction of Tianyun Sect, Huanyang used Instantaneous Movement to take Mu Tianyun with him and they both vanished in a flash.

Elsewhere, Chaos God was already leading Ling Xiaoxiao and the others towards Divine Valley.

...

They had to inform Feng Wuchen as soon as possible about Tianyun Sect saving the Huangfu family’s powerhouses and also prepare for the next steps.

They did not know whether Tianyun Sect would intervene, but they needed to prepare for the best course of action.

The Red-blood Bird kept flying and two days later, Xing Tianfeng and the others had already entered the mountain ranges where Divine Valley was located and were continuing their journey to the valley.

Before even reaching Divine Valley, Feng Wuchen’s injuries had already fully recovered, and his cultivation had even improved a bit.

Entering the mountain range, Xing Tianfeng and Zhenyuntian both breathed a sigh of relief as the elite soldiers guarding the border had not yet sealed the passageway to Divine Valley.

Even if it was sealed, it wouldn’t matter, for the General guarding the passage was Ling Zhantian.

Seeing Ling Zhantian here, Feng Wuchen guessed that Ye Cangqiong had personally taken charge of Divine Valley.

Just upon reaching the periphery of Divine Valley, everyone sensed an extremely rich nature’s spiritual energy that made them tremble with awe.

On their way in, they encountered plenty of soldiers from the Empire, showing tight security.

On the edge of Divine Valley, forces from the four great empires had gathered in large numbers, each with its Generals in command.

Divine Valley was a wonderful sacred land with vast resources and countless treasures of heaven and earth, coveted by all countries.

To secure Divine Valley, the four great empires had erupted into a great war over a hundred years ago, which resulted in heavy casualties. The conflict ceased only after an agreement was reached.

Divine Valley was vast, with rugged mountain roads and dense thickets of trees and brambles. The deeper one went, the richer the spiritual energy became.

This was still just the periphery of Divine Valley, and no one knew how terrifyingly dense the spiritual energy would be in the heart of the valley.

“Truly a magical place, where does all this dense spiritual energy come from?” Duan Henxi asked with curiosity.

Su Lieyang laughed and said, “Once we’re in Divine Valley, you’ll find it even more unbelievable. There is a Spirit Lake in Divine Valley, and the spiritual energy emanates from there. Divine Valley is filled with countless treasures of heaven and earth, each radiating spiritual energy, which is why there is such dense spiritual energy.”

Having been there once before, Su Lieyang was somewhat familiar with Divine Valley, at least much more than Duan Henxi and the others.

“Indeed, it’s a miraculous place,” marveled Feng Wuchen. Having just entered the outskirts of the mountain range, he had already caught the scent of medicinal herbs.

Unfortunately, Divine Valley was still far away, and they had no time for sightseeing. Feng Wuchen and the others raced through the complex forest following Xing Tianfeng.

Without knowing the way, one could never find Divine Valley.

“Brother Feng!” Not long after entering the outer limits of the mountain range, Liu Qingyang’s shout came from behind.

“Qingyang! Xiaoxiao!” Feng Wuchen exclaimed in surprise, turning back. Seeing Ling Xiaoxiao and the others arrive safely, he felt completely reassured.

Ling Xiaoxiao, Liu Qingyang, Miao Qingqing, Zhang Junlan, and Chaos God were quickly catching up. They owed their speed to the art of Instantaneous Movement and had consumed countless Green Abyss Mystical Pills, risking their lives to catch up.

Liu Qingyang’s injuries had also fully healed, but the frantic journey had taken a toll on them, leaving everyone drenched in sweat.

“Brother Feng!” Ling Xiaoxiao greeted with a sweet, sweaty smile.

“Seeing that all of you are safe, I’m relieved,” Feng Wuchen said with a smile.

Watching Xing Tianfeng and the others move on, Chaos God reported, “Grand Commander, Tianyun Sect dispatched powerhouses to rescue Huangfu Tianba and sixteen others. We couldn’t annihilate the Huangfu family. Elder Sect Master Mu and the others are seriously injured, and Huanyang has taken them back for treatment.”

“Tianyun Sect?” Feng Wuchen furrowed his brow.

“On our way here, we found the body of Huangfu Zhantian. The Huangfu family and Tianyun Sect should both be aware of this. I fear Tianyun Sect won’t sit by this time. Elder Sect Master Mu is also very worried,” Chaos God reported respectfully, his expression serious.

“What are our casualties?” Feng Wuchen asked gravely.

“Not many. The Huangfu family is left with only sixteen people,” Chaos God replied respectfully.

Feng Wuchen nodded and said, “Let’s not worry about them for now.”

There were more important matters at hand, such as the Talent List Martial Contest.

Upon entering Divine Valley, Feng Wuchen’s curiosity was completely piqued. Such a wondrous sacred land—if one could come out on top, it would be possible to cultivate in Divine Valley for half a month, and the cultivation would certainly soar.

Only twenty students from the four great empires participated in the Talent List Martial Contest. Securing a spot in the top ten would grant one the opportunity to remain in Divine Valley for cultivation, which for Feng Wuchen, was not too difficult of a challenge.

In the depths of the primeval mountain range that housed Divine Valley, clouds and mists obscured the sky above the towering mountains on all sides.

The deep mountains were also shrouded in a chilling atmosphere.

The range where Divine Valley was located was a natural maze. Without knowing the paths, once inside, one could never find their way out.

For this reason, Empire soldiers could only blockade from the mountain range outside.

Four hours later, Xing Tianfeng had led Feng Wuchen and others to Divine Valley.

Powerful auras wafted through the air, gathering many strong individuals and genius students from elite academies of various empires!

Each of the genius students carried a sense of pride about them.

At the foot of Divine Valley, several dozen Zhang large bluestone platforms had been constructed specifically for the genius rankings’ martial contests.

“Such a vast amount of spiritual energy, it’s practically a natural Spirit Gathering Array. Along the way, there are countless heavenly treasures and invaluable medicinal herbs—no wonder all four empires are vying for its ownership,” Feng Wuchen secretly marveled.

The spiritual energy here was more than ten times stronger than in the outer areas! Merely standing still, one could feel the immense spiritual energy rushing towards them, which was extremely exhilarating.

“Brother Feng, the spiritual energy here is several times more abundant than at Sky Pavilion!” Liu Qingyang exclaimed in shock.

Ling Xiaoxiao too seemed surprised. “This is just the foot of Divine Valley. Spirit Lake should be inside the valley; the spiritual energy inside will be even more vast.”

Ling Xiaoxiao, after all, came from the Mainland and was well-traveled. It was enough to surprise her, which showed just how extraordinary Divine Valley was.

“Great General!” Xing Tianfeng, Zhenyuntian, and others promptly saluted Ye Cangqiong.

“Headmaster Xing, Elder Zhen, it’s been a long time,” Ye Cangqiong said politely with a smile, looking at Feng Wuchen with a respectful gaze.

With so many people around, Ye Cangqiong also didn’t dare reveal Feng Wuchen’s identity.

The Tianyan Empire was personally supervised by Ye Cangqiong, who brought along many Sky Shadow cavaliers and members of the Black Flag Army to maintain order.

The soldiers’ gaze towards Feng Wuchen was filled with respect and excitement.

From the Shuiyue Empire, Tianwu Empire, and Luoyun Empire, the Great Generals and elite soldiers also gathered in Divine Valley, with the sole purpose of managing order.

Tianyan Academy was the last to arrive. Students from the other three academies set their sights on Feng Wuchen and his group.

However, after a brief glance, their gazes ultimately focused on Ling Xiaoxiao. Her beauty instantly attracted their attention.

The genius students stared, utterly enraptured.

Meanwhile, Xing Tianfeng, Zhenyuntian, and several other high-ranking figures politely nodded at the other academies’ upper echelons, behaving quite amicably without any trace of animosity.

“That young man is hiding his strength well; I can’t even discern the depth of his cultivation,” an elder said in surprise as he observed Feng Wuchen.

“This lad is not simple; every time there is a genius rankings contest, a miracle occurs—I believe this time will be no different.”

The high-ranking figures from the three academies nodded slightly in agreement.

Although the genius students couldn’t gauge Feng Wuchen’s cultivation level, they weren’t the slightest bit worried, and only the high-ranking officials of the academies were slightly concerned.

“Other academies’ genius students are all very strong, with the weakest being at the Yuan Dan Realm Third Layer! Feng Wuchen, it seems we have no hope,” Duan Henxi said gravely, the competition for the genius rankings being incredibly fierce.

“There are three at the Fifth Level of Yuandan Realm!” Su Lieyang furrowed his brows, inwardly worried.

In Tianyan Academy, it was Su Lieyang who possessed the strongest cultivation, yet he was only at the Yuan Dan Realm Fourth Layer and had not managed to reach the Fifth Level even after a month of seclusion.

“Shuiyue Empire is truly frightening—one at the Fifth Level of Yuandan Realm and two at the Fourth Layer! They have nearly half of all the spots already!” Mu Shan said in shock.

“It seems that making it into the top ten isn’t as easy as I thought,” Feng Wuchen said with a wry smile, truly having underestimated the other academies’ genius students.

“Sigh, we really have no hope,” Duan Henxi said helplessly with a bitter smile.

In comparison, the students from Tianyan Academy were the weakest!

Entering the top ten was simply an impossible hope!

“Tianyan Academy is still so weak, not having a single individual at the Fifth Level of Yuandan Realm; it seems that this year you won’t have anyone in the top ten,” a genius from Shuiyue Empire at the Fourth Layer of Yuandan Realm arrogantly sneered.

“Su Lieyang, I thought you would have reached the Fifth Level of Yuandan Realm, what a pity!” another genius said with disdain.

“No need to say more, it’s still Tianyan Academy at the bottom yet again.”

“Does the Tianyan Empire not have a single decent genius?”

Many genius students jeered, their eyes filled with derision, not bothering to hide it.

Su Lieyang and Duan Henxi were so furious they turned grim, clenching their fists tightly, wishing they could rush up and slap those students.

“These sons of bitches!” Duan Henxi gritted his teeth and roared, rage nearly bursting from his eyes.

Feng Wuchen, on the other hand, remained very calm, completely ignoring the cold sneers and jeers from those students.

What good does talking do? True skills are shown through action.

The higher-ups of the academies glared at their own students, which finally made them shut their mouths.

The headmaster of Shuiyun Academy from Shuiyue Empire teleported onto the platform and said seriously, “The triennial genius rankings battle will begin in a quarter hour; students who are participating, please be prepared.”

“Hmph! This time, it will still be our Shuiyun Academy claiming the first place!”

“The first place belongs to Tianwu Academy!”

The students roared excitedly, full of fighting spirit, each with an attitude ready to compete!
