Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 1180: Chapter 1180: Mockery

”Heavenly Dao Power? Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong?”

A voice filled with doubt sounded, and immediately, a young man appeared silently.

”If you don’t believe it, why bother asking?” Yu Yan replied indifferently.

”Fairy Yu Yan, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t mean to doubt you. It’s just that Heavenly Dao Power is one in ten thousand. Even those with the purest Divine Clan bloodline may not necessarily awaken it,” the man quickly explained, fearful of further misunderstanding.

After speaking, he glanced at Fairy Yu Yan’s expression, seemingly both wary of her and harboring admiration for her.

”It’s already confirmed that Feng Wuchen is of the Dragon God Clan and possesses Heavenly Dao Power. You may leave now,” Fairy Yu Yan said softly, her graceful figure disappearing into thin air immediately.

”Heavenly Dao Power, huh? The legendary ultimate divine power.” The young man frowned slightly.

...

Feng Wuchen did not return to Tianying Pavilion but instead arrived at a lofty floating mountain peak.

Feng Wuchen planned to elevate the four domains’ realms to the Heavenly Grade, which would be highly beneficial for the Artifact Refining Conference in a month.

”The Heavenly Realm is ruled by the Heavenly Sovereign. To overthrow the Divine Clan’s authority, I must fully leverage the advantages of the four domains. I believe many major powers in the Heavenly Realm have their grievances but dare not voice them. A solitary battle is absolutely hopeless. I can only unite the major powers of the Heavenly Realm,” Feng Wuchen pondered silently.

The existence of the Divine Clan had become deeply rooted, akin to a terrifying colossus.

Yet the eight Heavenly Emperors alone were enough to strike fear across all the domains of the Heavenly Realm.

”This mountain isn’t bad,” Feng Wuchen remarked after a quick appraisal, appearing somewhat satisfied.

The mountain peak was shrouded in ethereal mist, rich in Spiritual Energy, and most importantly, peaceful. No nearby factions occupied the area, making it ideal for cultivation.

Entering the mountain, Feng Wuchen found a secluded spot and then entered the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower to cultivate.

...

The Artifact Refiner Guild of the Ling Realm.

The guild is situated in Tiandu of the Ling Realm, holding an exalted status and garnering immense respect from countless cultivators.

The four major professions were still highly revered in the Heavenly Realm. Other than the Artifact Refiner Guild, there was also Shengxian Village.

Back in the day, Shengxian Village, led by Master Guigu, boasted numerous powerful Alchemists. However, due to Master Guigu, the Alchemists eventually dispersed.

The Artifact Refiner Guild in the Ling Realm was a massive force. Apart from the Spirit Emperor Temple, the Artifact Refiner Guild was the strongest.

Even such a powerful guild had to bow their heads because of the Heavenly Sovereign.

As the name suggests, the Artifact Refiner Guild primarily consisted of Artifact Refiners, gathering many of the Ling Realm’s most powerful Artifact Refiners.

Even strong Artifact Refiners from various other domains held affiliations with the guild. Its vast network spanned across all regions.

So formidable was the guild that even the eight Heavenly Emperors of the Heavenly Realm had to approach it with caution.

It could be said that aside from Tianying Pavilion, the Artifact Refiner Guild feared nothing, though outwardly maintaining polite appearances.

On this day, Qiao Sanfeng returned to the Artifact Refiner Guild.

The guild was extremely majestic, covering a vast area with over a hundred grand Qi Po Palaces built across its grounds.

Qiao Sanfeng’s return was naturally for the purpose of enrolling Feng Wuchen in the Artifact Refining Conference.

”Oh? Isn’t this the Third Elder of the Commerce Association? What brings you back to the guild today?”

As soon as Qiao Sanfeng entered the guild gates, a mocking voice rang in his ears.

Qiao Sanfeng’s brows furrowed slightly but decided to ignore it, heading straight for the main hall.

Clearly, such ridicule was not a first for him.

”Heavenly Grade Soul Power, yet still stuck at the Innate Grade Realm? Third Elder, it seems your cultivation has made no progress at all.”

”How can you say that? The Third Elder is the only one in our guild who has spent three years without any improvement as an Innate Grade Artifact Refiner. Can any of you achieve that?”

”True, true. No matter how hard we try, we can’t reach the Third Elder’s level.”

Before Qiao Sanfeng could step into the grand hall, several elders’ mocking voices reached his ears once again.

Although Qiao Sanfeng held the position of Third Elder in the Spiritual Realm Commerce Association, to the Artifact Refiners in the guild, he was regarded as a nobody.

In the Artifact Refiner Guild, which surpassed the Commerce Association in strength, his status was insignificant.

”Hmph!” Qiao Sanfeng glared at the elders but chose not to argue.

Reaching outside the main hall, Qiao Sanfeng said, ”I am here to register. Please notify the council.”

”Register? Qiao Sanfeng, are you joking? With your Innate Grade Artifact Refiner level, you want to register? Forget it, don’t disgrace the guild,” one of the guards remarked with blatant contempt.

Qiao Sanfeng’s face turned grim. He had endured the scorn of those arrogant Artifact Refiners, but now even the guards dared to belittle him.

”Without the elders’ approval and without having reached the Heavenly Grade, you cannot enter the grand hall—registration included,” another guard said coldly.

Another guard added mockingly, ”Qiao Sanfeng, you should know the guild’s rules.”

”You!” Qiao Sanfeng was livid, his anger boiling over. ”How dare you treat me this way!”

”Impudent!” Just then, a stern voice interrupted, and a young man walked over at a measured pace.

”Greetings to the Young Master!” The guards immediately knelt, as did the mocking elders and a few younger Artifact Refiners in the distance.

”Hmph!” The young man snorted heavily, his imposing aura forcing the guards to cough up blood.

The newcomer was none other than Yun Wuying, the Young Master of the Artifact Refiner Guild, hailed as the Ling Realm’s most talented Artifact Refiner, having reached the Innate Grade Realm at a young age.

In the previous Artifact Refining Conference, Yun Wuying had claimed first place and became renowned throughout the Ling Realm.

”Greetings, Young Master,” Qiao Sanfeng quickly saluted with clasped hands.

”No need for formalities, Elder Qiao. I apologize for the disrespect you’ve endured,” Yun Wuying remarked politely. Turning to the guards, his gaze grew icy. ”How dare you act beyond your station? Disrespecting your elders and defying hierarchy—leave the guild at once!”

”Yes, sir!” The guards dared not protest, their regret palpable as they left, their prized positions lost to arrogance.

Yun Wuying’s cold eyes swept over the mocking elders. ”Do you think you’re so exceptional just because you’re Artifact Refiners? Instead of ridiculing others, why not focus on improving your own skills? If you dislike being part of the guild, you’re free to leave anytime.”

”We dare not,” the elders replied in fear, cold sweat dripping from their backs.

”This guild is a sanctuary for Artifact Refining, not your private backyard. If there’s a next time, I’ll cripple your Soul Power! Now leave!” Yun Wuying commanded sternly. If they weren’t Artifact Refiners, he would’ve expelled them outright.

The elders slunk away in embarrassment, no one daring to utter another word.

”Elder Qiao, please, come inside.” Yun Wuying smiled courteously at Qiao Sanfeng.

”Thank you, Young Master,” Qiao Sanfeng replied, his tone filled with gratitude.
