CHAPTER 789: CHAPTER 599_2

Immediately, he left the attic and headed to the square.

He glanced at several martial brothers and sisters, Lin Feng found that their cultivation had greatly improved, with Seventh Sister Hua Suifu reaching the Earth Martial Master First Layer, and Jun Wuxi’s cultivation had astonishingly reached the Earth Martial Master Sixth Layer Realm.

"Eleventh Junior Brother!"

Seeing Lin Feng coming out, everyone started shouting one after another.

"Congratulations to all martial brothers and sisters for progressing greatly in cultivation!" Lin Feng said with a smiling face.

"Lin Feng, congratulations on entering the Thousand Pride List of East Continent!"

Feng Shaoyu, Yun Fei, and Tian Chen were also smiling broadly; Lin Feng’s reputation in East Continent was indeed resounding.

However, Hua Suifu and Jun Wuxi were staring blankly at Lin Feng, their eyes widened.

After a while, Jun Wuxi asked in astonishment, "Lin Feng, have you reached the Earth Martial Master Third Layer Realm?"

Upon hearing Jun Wuxi’s words, Feng Shaoyu and the others were also stunned on the spot.

Earth Martial Master Third Layer?

Everyone had a blank expression on their faces. Feng Shaoyu and the others could no longer discern Lin Feng’s cultivation; originally, based on their assumption and Lin Feng’s talent, they thought he should have reached the Earth Martial Master First Layer Realm.

But now, hearing Jun Wuxi’s words, the three felt as if their proud hearts were shattered.

Damn it!

Comparing yourself with others will only make you furious!

Everyone is a monstrous genius, why is there such a big difference?

Tian Chen felt slightly better as he was aware of Lin Feng’s cultivation methods, but the rest of the four felt somewhat unacceptable!

It wasn’t that they were jealous of Lin Feng, but compared to him, they felt they were terribly inadequate!

In response to Jun Wuxi’s inquiry, Lin Feng just nodded slightly.

"You...Eleventh Junior Brother, how did you cultivate? How did you improve so fast?"

Jun Wuxi asked shockingly; it had been less than a year since he had left the sect, and Lin Feng had already reached such a realm, which seemed utterly unbelievable to him.

The last time he saw Lin Feng, Lin Feng was only at the Heavenly Martial Master Second Layer Realm; this growth speed was simply astounding.

"Hehe! Talent, it’s all because of talent!" Lin Feng laughed and didn’t explain much.

"Talent?"

Everyone’s faces twitched, feeling saddened inside; maybe it really was talent!

It wasn’t that their talent was inferior, but that Lin Feng’s talent was too high.

Jun Wuxi sighed silently, then his eyes flashed with a fighting spirit, sizing up Lin Feng, he said, "Eleventh Junior Brother, your combat power is extraordinary; being able to enter the Thousand Pride List at Heavenly Martial Master Ninth Layer, perhaps your strength is not inferior to mine now, how about we spar a bit?"

"I agree!"

Tian Chen was the first to shout, laughing and saying, "Fifth Senior Brother, although you are higher in cultivation than the Eleventh Junior Brother, you may not necessarily win against him!"

Tian Chen indeed had great confidence in Lin Feng.

"Really?"

Jun Wuxi’s eyes narrowed, asking, "Eleventh Junior Brother, would you like to spar for a few moves?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng shook his head and said, "Fifth Senior Brother, I have just broken through the realm, and my cultivation is not very stable yet, let’s forget it!"

Lin Feng tactfully declined; Jun Wuxi was no match for him now!

There was no meaning in sparring!

And if he sparred with him and deliberately held back, it would also be disrespectful, so he refused!

"This...okay then!"

Jun Wuxi nodded, understanding Lin Feng’s cultivation was unstable; he couldn’t force it.

After a moment’s thought, Jun Wuxi then said, "Eleventh Junior Brother, I look forward to your performance at the Talent Grand Conference!"

"The Talent Grand Conference?"

Lin Feng shook his head upon hearing this, saying, "Fifth Senior Brother, it’s enough that you participate in the Talent Grand Conference; I won’t go!"

He was not in the mood to attend any Talent Grand Conference now; improving his strength was more important. Soon, he planned to set off for Central Continent.

"Why not go?"

Jun Wuxi looked puzzled and said, "This Talent Grand Conference is the biggest event in East Continent in decades; all the geniuses from various places will gather, and it’s an event you absolutely can’t miss!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng was speechless, but it was just sparring and competition; the so-called Talent Grand Conference was probably just a struggle among the seven superpowers of East Continent.

He now had countless wealth, didn’t care about any rewards, and didn’t want to join the crowd.

However, he wondered if Wenren Tiandu would go?

Lin Feng still wanted to find out from the person about the matters of Ancient Martial Practitioners, after all, being tied up with the Spirit Vortex could affect whether he could step into the Martial King Realm.

This matter must not be taken lightly!

After a slight pause and contemplation, Lin Feng said, "Fifth Brother, we’ll talk about it when the time comes!"

Lin Feng planned to see the situation then and decide accordingly, especially if Wenren Tiandu would also appear, he must make the trip as well.

"Hehe, you will definitely go. Only the two of us from Sky-reaching Peak are qualified to participate, and if you don’t go, Master will not agree," Jun Wuxi laughed.

The three people with Feng Shaoyu only had the cultivation of a Heavenly Martial Master, naturally, they were not qualified to participate, and although Hua Suifu had reached the level of an Earth Martial Master, his cultivation at First Layer was really too low, and even if he participated, there wouldn’t be much achievement.

Therefore, the ones from Sky-reaching Peak qualified to partake in the grand gathering of pride were only Jun Wuxi and Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded upon hearing this. The other party was right.

After a while, Lin Feng paused and inquired, "By the way, Fifth Brother, do you know about the person Hua Yuanhan?"

"Hua Yuanhan?"

Jun Wuxi was stunned upon hearing this and said, "He is a disciple of Haotian Peak, ranked higher than me on the Thousand Pride List. Has he offended you?"

Jun Wuxi didn’t know that Hua Yuanhan was already dead, and thought that he and Lin Feng had some conflict.

"I’m just asking!"

Lin Feng shook his head, saying, "I want to know his background, or who his master is?"

Lin Feng wanted to figure out who wanted him dead, which was also a hidden danger. If he didn’t clarify it, there might still be trouble later!

Jun Wuxi pondered for a moment upon hearing this, and said, "Hua Yuanhan doesn’t have a master, but it’s said that Elder Huangfu Yuan from Haotian Peak values him highly, and often gives him guidance!"

"Huangfu Yuan?" Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed momentarily with sudden realization.

Hua Yuanhan must have been sent by Huangfu Yuan, or by Hou Jun, to kill him.

The possibility of Huangfu Yuan being involved was somewhat lesser; after all, as a Martial Emperor, he wouldn’t need to go through so much trouble to kill him.

Moreover, since Huangfu Qing had repelled him with one move last time, the other party would probably not rashly send someone to kill him.

In that case, Hou Jun was the most likely.

"Never changing, even if your father is a Martial Emperor, given the chance, I will ’deal’ with you!"

Killing intent surged within Lin Feng.

"Hua Yuanhan is not simple; if you have a conflict with him, do not act rashly!" Jun Wuxi cautioned.

"Um!" Lin Feng nodded, not revealing the reality to the other party.

After a while, Jun Wuxi glanced over at a few people and laughed, "Fellow junior brothers and sisters, I have a few bottles of top-grade wine on me. How about we all head to my attic and enjoy the wine and chat?"

"Top-grade wine!"

Tian Chen’s eyes lit up immediately, and he eagerly said, "What are we waiting for, let’s go!"

"Haha!"

Everyone laughed and then walked into Jun Wuxi’s attic together.

In the attic, the junior brothers and sisters enjoyed the fine wine and discussed anecdotes from the East Continent, living freely and happily.

Until late afternoon, everyone eventually left one by one.

After leaving Jun Wuxi’s attic, Lin Feng returned to his own attic and once again immersed himself in cultivation.

The time of cultivation was monotonously dull, but Lin Feng was now filled with motivation.

He had now reached the cultivation of Earth Martial Master Third Layer; he felt that once he reached the Fifth Layer, he could almost head to Central State.

Of course, if he could reach the Sixth or even Seventh Layer, it would definitely be safer.

But Lin Feng could not wait any longer; he decided that once he reached the Fifth Layer, he would set out immediately.

Four years had passed!

Time flew like a white horse passing through a gap, and in the blink of an eye, four years had passed!

Originally, he promised Xi’er that he would go to Central State to find her after five years, and now only one year was left!

Originally, he challenged Shangguan Hao, with a five-year challenge and now only one year was left!

Lin Feng was someone who valued promises; what he said and promised, he would definitely fulfill.

Even through thousands of calamities and difficulties, even if he died and vanished, he would have no regrets!

Time slowly passed, another five days went by, and the Dark Power within Lin Feng’s body became increasingly refined; in a few days, he could once again devour a Spirit Stone.

On this day, in the midst of cultivation, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

Because the voice of his master, Huangfu Qing, reached his ears, asking him to come to the main hall.

Lin Feng did not hesitate, immediately ended his cultivation, walked out of the attic, and headed toward the nearby grand hall.
