Capítulo 1688: Chapter 1687: Advancement to the Divine Spirit Realm

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I must have seen it wrong!”

In the exquisite pavilion at the back courtyard of the inn, Shi Qing was unwilling to accept the fact that Feng Wuchen was of the Divine Monarch realm.

“Defeated Tian Zu’s Great Protector with just one move of the Divine Art; it’s simply impossible!” Shi Qing shook his head vacantly.

Outside the pavilion, Mu Honglian walked in.

Seeing Shi Qing’s dazed expression, Mu Honglian asked, “What have you found out?”

Shi Qing snapped back to reality, shook his head, and said, “Nothing has been found out, the disciples of Shuiyun Palace are not aware of Feng Wuchen’s origin, and neither do the people from the commerce association; no one knows Feng Wuchen’s background. He seemed to suddenly appear in Moyun City. However, when coaxing a commerce association guard, I learned that he is an alchemist; the Shenxuan Powder sold by the commerce association is precisely refined by Feng Wuchen.”

“What? The Shenxuan Powder is refined by him?” Mu Honglian looked at Shi Qing in shock.

“That’s correct, Shenxuan Powder is the medicine powder developed by Lord Soul Extinction. In the entire Seven Divine Realms, apart from Lord Soul Extinction’s disciples and some reputable, powerful alchemists, no one can refine it, nor is there a recipe. Yet, Feng Wuchen can refine it, suggesting this person’s origin is incredibly complex.” Shi Qing respectfully answered.

“With the realm of Divine Monarch and able to refine Shenxuan Powder, Feng Wuchen is possibly the disciple’s disciple of Lord Soul Extinction, meaning Lord Soul Extinction’s grand-disciple.” Mu Honglian speculated.

“Though I don’t want to admit it, I can’t think of anything else besides this; Feng Wuchen must be the disciple of a mighty alchemist.” Shi Qing said reluctantly.

Pausing for a moment, Shi Qing continued, “But I still can’t believe it; how could a Nine-Star God General’s cultivation suddenly become a Divine Monarch? Defeating Tian Zu with one move—what sort of Divine Art is it?”

“Shi Qing, you need to be clear on your situation. In the grand scheme of the Seven Divine Realms, we are but ants. Countless existences are beyond our knowledge; the world is full of wonders.” Mu Honglian said calmly.

“Perhaps.” Shi Qing sighed lightly.

“Come with me to the commerce association to meet this genius. Since he refined the Shenxuan Powder, Feng Wuchen must be at the commerce association.” Mu Honglian said with a gentle smile.

“Shopkeeper, we need to kill Yang Tianya. It’s best to minimize contact with Feng Wuchen; besides, he can certainly recognize me. I’m worried he might hold grudges, and with our cultivation, we can’t compete with him.” Shi Qing quickly said, recalling the incident of leading Feng Wuchen to the woods.

“Frankly speaking, I see greater hope now with Feng Wuchen’s appearance. Suddenly, I feel like Shuiyun Palace isn’t what I want; compared to Fen Wuchen, it’s clear where the benefits weigh more, isn’t it?” Mu Honglian said with a soft smile.

“I’m worried about the leader…” Shi Qing expressed concern.

Before Shi Qing could finish, Mu Honglian interrupted, “I believe father will agree with my thoughts; Feng Wuchen is extraordinary, and if we can get his help, what is Shuiyun Palace to us?”

Hearing this, Shi Qing fell silent and then followed Mu Honglian to the commerce association.

…

Divine Realm Commerce Association.

After three days of painful training, Feng Wuchen had successfully advanced to the Divine Spirit Realm, and the tearing pain in his muscles had vanished.

This breakthrough enhanced his combat power, and Feng Wuchen also benefited from the misfortune, strengthening his physical body.

“The training effects are indeed remarkable!” Feng Wuchen said satisfactorily, “With my current combat strength, even without activating the Divine Element, I can rival a One-Star Divine Spirit. With the support of the Divine Artifact and Divine Domain, I can stand undefeated against a Two-Star Divine Spirit.”

“Congratulations, Young Master Chen, on your breakthrough to the Divine Spirit Realm!” Tian Sha’s respectful voice sounded.

Feng Wuchen slightly shook his head and said, “It’s merely the Divine Spirit Realm, and only One-Star at that; there’s nothing much to celebrate. This level of strength is ineffective. Any Three-Star or Four-Star disciple from Shuiyun Palace could easily defeat me, and I need much stronger power.”

Outside the room, Xu Feng, Gong Jingyan, and the three elders looked anxious, unaware of Feng Wuchen’s current state.

“Lord Feng hasn’t come out for three days; could something have happened? The Super Shenxuan Powder hasn’t been in stock for three days.” One elder asked worriedly.

“Third Elder, are you even speaking human words? We don’t know Lord Feng’s situation, yet you’re concerned about the Shenxuan Powder?” Xu Feng snapped, angrily shouting at the Third Elder.

Gong Jingyan said solemnly, “Stop arguing! Lord Feng should be fine; the barrier in the room is still there, indicating Lord Feng could be recovering, so there’s no need to worry too much.”

After the battle between Feng Wuchen and Tian Zu, Feng Wuchen hurriedly went into seclusion upon returning to the commerce association, prompting Xu Feng and others’ immense concern at seeing Feng Wuchen in agony as if on the verge of death.

Soon after, Feng Wuchen walked out of his room.

Seeing Feng Wuchen safe and sound, Xu Feng and Gong Jingyan finally felt relieved.

“Lord Feng, how are you? Are you alright?” Xu Feng asked anxiously.

“I’m fine.” Feng Wuchen shook his head slightly.

Gong Jingyan asked, “Lord Feng, what exactly happened?”

“Nothing much, just an over-consumption of the Divine Element causing some discomfort in my body, that’s all.” Feng Wuchen said calmly.

“As long as you’re fine! That’s all that matters!” Xu Feng was thoroughly relieved.

“Lord Feng, there is a young woman named Mu Honglian outside asking to see you.” At this moment, Bing Shuang came to report respectfully.

“The inn’s shopkeeper?” Feng Wuchen was puzzled and asked, “What business does she have with me?”

“I don’t know either.” Bing Shuang shook her head.

“Ren Tianxing and the others always failed to find out Mu Honglian’s background, yet she’s now here to see me.” Feng Wuchen wondered inwardly, then headed towards the commerce association lobby.

Feng Wuchen and Mu Honglian were entirely unfamiliar but Mu Honglian had suddenly come to find him, which piqued Feng Wuchen’s curiosity.

“Miss Mu Honglian, greetings to Lord Feng.” Seeing Feng Wuchen and the others come out, Mu Honglian greeted politely.

“The shopkeeper’s information really is timely, but I wonder what business the shopkeeper has with me?” Feng Wuchen asked with a gentle smile.

“It’s nothing in particular, just came especially to apologize to Lord Feng.” Mu Honglian replied softly, lacking the charming smile she had at the inn.

“Apologize?” Feng Wuchen was surprised, a bit confused about what Mu Honglian meant.

“A few days ago, upon seeing you at the inn, I felt Lord Feng was very unique, so I was rather presumptuous, sending Shi Qing to test him. Today, I’ve come specifically to make amends to Lord Feng.” Mu Honglian explained.

“It was you?” Feng Wuchen furrowed his brow slightly, glancing at Shi Qing standing behind Mu Honglian.

“I deeply apologize; I hope Lord Feng can forgive me!” Shi Qing quickly clasped his fists and apologized.

“So it was Mu Honglian and Shi Qing hidden in the dark observing.” Feng Wuchen thought to himself, increasingly curious about Mu Honglian’s origin.

“With the status of a Six-Star Divine King, the shopkeeper is certainly not just an innkeeper; could you tell me your background?” Feng Wuchen directly asked.

“Xingyue Divine Sect.” Mu Honglian replied.
