CHAPTER 550: CHAPTER 475: THE FIRST

Lin Feng shuttled in and out of space, and every half hour, he would burst from the spatial rift, identify his direction, recover his Dark Power, and then once again tear through the void.

Time passed by.

Three days later, in Hu Ben Country, on Yu Mountain.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, the space above Yu Mountain suddenly split open, and a white-haired youth stepped out from the rift.

The youth was none other than Lin Feng!

"I’ve arrived in Hu Ben Country!"

Lin Feng’s eyes swept the surroundings and he immediately recognized the place, a hint of nostalgia couldn’t help but surface in his eyes.

Four years ago, it was on Yu Mountain where Duan Jingtian and Jin Yang had a battle that alarmed the entire Hu Ben Country.

Back then, he had just stepped into the realm of martial master and was merely an Outer Disciple of Divine Wind Camp.

In the blink of an eye, four years had gone by!

With a sigh, Lin Feng’s figure moved, and he flew towards the direction of Divine Wind Camp.

...

In the middle of Star Water Lake, Divine Wind Camp remained the same, nestled in the center of the lake, but the island had completely transformed.

The grand architectural complex undulated with palaces and pavilions, with gilt copper tiles shining brilliantly.

This place was now the Overlord Level power of the Great Thousand Domain, the Heavenly Vault Sect.

The Heavenly Vault Sect nowadays was thriving and extremely powerful.

Even after the Blood Luo Hall’s Sub Hall in the Great Thousand Domain was destroyed, and the previous major powers had returned, none dared to provoke the Heavenly Vault Sect in the slightest.

Although Sect Leader Lin Feng was not present, the several Level Five Demon Beasts within the Heavenly Vault Sect were invincible existences within the Great Thousand Domain.

In recent months, the Heavenly Vault Sect had been recruiting Disciples widely across the entire Great Thousand Domain, and in just a few months, the number of Disciples surged by dozens of times, exceeding 50,000.

Countless young talents from the Great Thousand Domain traveled thousands of miles to come here, hoping to be admitted into the Heavenly Vault Sect.

However, the standards of the Heavenly Vault Sect for recruiting Disciples were extremely stringent; without a Human Level Eighth Rank Martial Soul talent, there was no hope of joining the Heavenly Vault Sect.

The Heavenly Vault Sect only recruited true talents, striving for quality and not quantity.

Not just Disciples, many renowned Loose Cultivators from the Great Thousand Domain also joined the Heavenly Vault Sect in droves.

All because the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Vault Sect was the once-in-an-age Demonic Genius, Lin Feng!

On the mountain path,

A large number of Heavenly Vault Sect Disciples were coming and going, talking among themselves.

"Our Heavenly Vault Sect is developing too quickly; it won’t be long before we unify the Great Thousand Domain!"

"To be honest, with the might of our Heavenly Vault Sect, we were already unrivaled in the Great Thousand Domain! It’s just that the three Hall Masters haven’t taken action, otherwise, who could withstand the might of the Level Five Demon Beasts?"

"The three Hall Masters don’t wish to create more slaughter. Just wait a few more years, once our Heavenly Vault Sect is powerful enough, the other major powers will submit of their own accord!"

"I wonder when the Sect Leader will return; he is the goal I strive towards!"

A large group of young Disciples chatted as they walked toward the Sect Main Hall.

"I heard that the Sect Leader is only nineteen years old. In this lifetime, I, Xiao Ling’er, will marry a genius like the Sect Leader!" A girl with a delicate and pretty face showed a look of admiration.

"Pfft!!"

Upon hearing the girl’s words, everyone rolled their eyes. Now within the Great Thousand Domain, the number of women who wanted to marry the Sect Leader was countless; could it be her turn?

"Sister Xiao, if you want to know about the Sect Leader’s deeds, you might want to ask Brother Niu!" one young man said to the pretty girl, and then he motioned with his lips towards the front.

Ahead of the crowd, a rather sturdy-looking young man was walking. He was not tall and his skin was slightly dark.

This young man was walking in the front, with quite a few people gathered around him, and many Disciples showed a respectful demeanor towards this short and stout youth.

Niu Xiaohu looked at the Disciples surrounding him with a somewhat helpless heart.

Ever since his relationship with Lin Feng became known, his status within the Sect had indeed risen, but his annoyance also came with numerous people seeking him out daily to inquire about Lin Feng’s exploits.

Whoosh!

At that moment, in the distant sky, a streak of light tore through the void, speeding towards Divine Wind Camp.

The streak of light was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, it was near Divine Wind Camp.

"What’s that?"

"Such incredible speed!"

"This is a super-expert!"

Many Disciples exclaimed in shock, their gazes fixed on the streak of light.

Swoosh!

The streak of light immediately arrived above the island and halted, transforming into a white-haired youth.

Everyone on the island who saw this white-haired youth immediately widened their eyes.

Lin Feng stood in the sky above the island, somewhat surprised at how lively the Heavenly Vault Sect had become, and then he swept his gaze across and instantly saw Niu Xiaohu below.

"Xiaohu, long time no see!" Lin Feng gave a slight smile to Niu Xiaohu.

"Lin Feng, no! Sect Leader... you’ve returned!" Niu Xiaohu’s expression was stunned, his face somewhat incredulous.

"Mhm!"

Lin Feng nodded and then looked over Niu Xiaohu, who was now a martial master at the Sixth Layer!

Lin Feng couldn’t help but internally sigh; he and Niu Xiaohu used to have a great relationship, but as the gap between them grew wider and wider, it became difficult to interact as casually and equally as before.

Even if he could maintain a normal state of mind, the other party would feel a great deal of pressure and could no longer be as relaxed and casual as in the past.

"Xiaohu, we’ll chat when there’s time!"

With those words, Lin Feng flew directly into the Sect Main Hall of the Heavenly Vault Sect.

Niu Xiaohu stood there, stunned, silently nodding his head.

After a few moments of silence on the island, a tumultuous uproar burst forth.

"The Sect Leader is back!"

"The Sect Leader has really returned!"

"Ha ha! I’ve finally seen the Sect Leader with my own eyes!"
