“Quick, look! Senior Brother Chu Feng is in the sky!”
“Watch your words. He’s no longer just our Heavenly Summit Peak Senior Brother. He’s now a Candidate Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect, ranked first among all the Holy Sons. He’s the face of the sect,” a female disciple said, her eyes filled with admiration. “I finally get to see Holy Son Chu Feng’s true appearance. He really is as flawless as the rumors say.”
“If I could share a pillow with Senior Brother for just one night in this lifetime, I would have no regrets,” another female disciple said dreamily, her face full of longing.
“It looks like Senior Brother is about to break through again. So powerful.”
“But wasn’t it said that he just broke through to the peak of the Divine Core realm?”
“My heavens… could it be that Senior Brother is about to break through to the Nascent Soul Transformation realm?”
…
The entire Heavenly Summit Peak erupted in thunderous exclamations like roaring waves.
If it were true, such a young Nascent Soul Transformation realm cultivator would be unprecedented across the entire Ancient Immortal Continent.
The cultivation realms were divided into the ten realms of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Divine Core, Nascent Soul Transformation, Spirit Transformation, Integration, and Great Ascension.
Every realm was extremely difficult to cultivate and even harder to break through.
A Foundation Establishment realm expert could already possess a lifespan of 500 years and establish a powerful clan in an ordinary small city.
Countless ancient monsters, hundreds of years old, remained trapped at the Divine Core or even Foundation Establishment realm until their lifespans were exhausted, never able to advance.
Chu Feng was only in his early twenties.
A Nascent Soul Transformation realm cultivator in his early twenties was enough to make one tremble. If this news spread, who knew how many old monsters unable to break through would be angered to death?
The entire Ancient Immortal Continent would be thrown into turmoil.
“Buzz, buzz, buzz…”
Under countless gazes, Chu Feng suddenly opened his mouth and expelled a violet-gold Divine Core. Endless dazzling divine light burst forth. Stars circled around it, like the brightest star in the universe.
“The Heavenly Summit Star Core! That’s the mark of the Heavenly Summit Star King Art. Senior Brother actually cultivated our Heavenly Summit Peak’s supreme technique!” a disciple cried out.
“What is the Heavenly Summit Star King Art?” someone asked in confusion.
“The Heavenly Summit Star King Art is the foundational technique of Heavenly Summit Peak. It’s said that the first Peak Master obtained it from a forbidden land. It was a scripture left behind by an ancient immortal from the primordial era. If cultivated to great completion, it grants boundless power capable of creating a starry universe,” an older disciple explained gravely. “But that’s only what successive Peak Masters deduced from the scripture. No one has ever successfully cultivated it. I never expected Senior Brother to succeed.”
“Crack!”
Suddenly, a fissure appeared on the surface of the Divine Core.
“He really is about to break through,” many supreme experts trembled violently, their eyes filled with shock. A Nascent Soul Transformation realm at such a young age.
Though their current strength far surpassed Chu Feng’s, when they recalled their own cultivation at his age, they seriously wondered whether they had been cultivating the same technique at all.
“Do not lose focus. Be vigilant of the surroundings,” a deep, aged voice sounded by their ears.
“Yes, Peak Master!”
The supreme experts trembled and quickly regained their composure, responding respectfully, not daring to be careless again.
At the summit of Heavenly Summit Peak, a vast blessed land resembling a small world rose and fell within the clouds, constantly drawing boundless spiritual energy from the void.
Inside the blessed land.
“Congratulations, Master. Senior Brother has broken through his inner demon and is about to enter the Nascent Soul Transformation realm. He is one step closer to the position of Holy Son,” a stunning woman in a green dress knelt on one knee, holding her sword with both hands in salute.
“The Sect Master position you have long yearned for will soon return to Heavenly Summit Peak.”
Before her stood an elder with long, loose hair, eagle-like eyes, and a ruddy complexion, dressed in a purple robe.
He was the Peak Master of Heavenly Summit Peak, the Grand Elder of the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect, Liu Wudao, known as the Divine Extreme True Immortal.
“As expected of the legendary Golden Age. Geniuses emerge in abundance,” Liu Wudao said, joy evident in his eyes as he nodded repeatedly, clearly satisfied with Chu Feng’s performance. “From the moment Feng’er was born, he possessed a body full of Immortal Bones and received the blessing of a true dragon divine beast. Even in this Golden Age, few can surpass his talent.
I originally believed that even with Feng’er’s aptitude, breaking free from the shackles of mortal emotion would require several trials and further maturation of his mind.
Yet I still underestimated the terror of Immortal Bones and the soul strengthened by the Divine Dragon Phenomenon.
For an ordinary person, possessing a single Immortal Bone is enough to become a peerless prodigy.
Feng’er, however, possesses a body full of Immortal Bones. How can he be judged by common sense?
Hahaha… it was my vision that was too narrow!”
Though Liu Wudao spoke calmly, his loud laughter revealed the joy in his heart.
“Still, we must not be careless. The chief disciples of the other main peaks and those Candidate Holy Sons cultivated by the old monsters are not to be underestimated. We cannot relax our guard,” Liu Wudao said, frowning slightly. “Especially that old fellow from Primordial Void Peak. He has always been at odds with me. He even found and nurtured the legendary owner of the Tyrant Body. That cannot be taken lightly.”
The woman lifted her rounded chin and let out a cold laugh, her eyes filled with chilling intent. “What of a Tyrant Body? Before Senior Brother, he can be killed with a flip of the hand. Moreover, he secretly helped Su Fan this time and plotted against Senior Brother. Otherwise, how could that foolish woman Ye Tongyao have acted so silently? To be safe, perhaps I should…”
She raised her hand and made a throat-slitting gesture, her eyes dark and sinister.
“That little brat is just like his master, fond of secret schemes. Though not a great threat, he is still troublesome,” Liu Wudao said. “Make preparations in secret. Do not leave any traces. I will consider it further.”
He added, “Your Senior Brother is proud by nature. Do not let him know of these matters.”
“I understand. Senior Brother is like an Immortal King descended into the mortal world, destined to shine brilliantly. Leave the dirty work to me,” the woman replied. She turned her gaze toward Chu Feng, who floated in the sky radiating boundless light, her eyes filled with fanatical devotion.
Senior Brother, you are the most perfect. I will help you ascend to the highest peak. Whoever dares block your path, I will kill.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, thunder exploded across the clear sky. Heaven and earth trembled as purple energy instantly covered 10,000 kilometers.
The floating Heavenly Summit Star Core shattered completely, and from within emerged a miniature version of Chu Feng, only the size of a fist. He looked remarkably adorable, holding a small violet sword in his arms.
Yet the moment this miniature Chu Feng was born, it seemed as though he possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth. As his eyes suddenly opened, terrifying violet light shot forth, piercing through space itself. Chaotic currents from the void surged violently outward.
“Extreme Star Divine Infant, born cradling the Star Sword, exactly as our ancestors predicted,” Liu Wudao exclaimed in immense delight, his face blooming with joy.
