Shi Feng, Shi Jinsuai, Xueh Wuheng, Chu Yue, and Chu Xin, the group of five, soared towards the Sealing Land.
At this mont, Shi Feng turned to Chu Yue beside him and asked, "What do you know about this Sealing Land?"
After listening to Shi Feng’s question, Chu Yue shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Actually, I can say that I know nothing about this Sealing Land!"
"Know nothing?" Confusion flashed across Shi Feng’s face. The last ti he had co to Starshine City, their family of three had clearly been pursued by Chu Zhu and had hidden themselves in this Sealing Land.
Seeing the puzzled look on Shi Feng’s face, Chu Yue knew what Shi Feng was thinking and explained, "The three of us, the last ti we entered what you call the Sealing Land, we actually only entered its outskirts, not the real Sealing Land. That place was a Cultivation grounds set up by our Chu family ancestors.
Inside the Cultivation grounds, there is a passage. If one follows this passage and goes deep enough, one will reach the real Sealing Land of our Chu family. It is said that, thousands of years ago, our Chu Family ancestors sealed a powerful and malevolent presence there. We have never entered it ourselves, and naturally, we do not know what the scene looks like inside, or what kind of existence lies within."
"So that’s how it is!" Shi Feng nodded in understanding.
Then, the group of five arrived at the back of the Chu family lands. Shi Feng saw the bare and lifeless small hillside he had seen last ti. Following that, the five of them floated above the small hillside, looking down at the slope below them.
At this ti, Xueh Wuheng spoke up, "I can sense a powerful and mysterious force below. Even now that I have entered the Martial Saint Realm, I cannot discern the extent of this power!"
Upon hearing Xueh Wuheng’s words, Chu Yue and Chu Xin were both startled. They hadn’t expected the white-clothed young man who had followed them to be a Martial Saint powerhouse!
Especially Chu Yue, who had previously paid attention to Xueh Wuheng, but with his own Martial Arts Cultivation Level, he couldn’t see what level of strength Xueh Wuheng possessed. He only felt that the aura emanating from him was as boundless as the ocean, completely beyond his own level.
Now, hearing Xueh Wuheng declare himself to be a Martial Saint, a Martial Saint so young!
Subsequently, both Chu Yue and Chu Xin, due to Xueh Wuheng’s revelation of his Cultivation Level, beca even more perplexed about Shi Feng’s identity. When they looked towards Shi Feng again, shock filled their eyes.
Xueh Wuheng, along with another youth in a Golden Robe, always stood by Shi Feng’s side. Clearly, they regarded Shi Feng as their leader.
If even a Martial Saint powerhouse was constantly at his side, what could be the noble status of this young man?
Now, it was already rumored in Starshine City that he had slain Chu Zhu, who was of the Nine-star Martial Venerable Realm. So to what extent had his Martial Arts Realm, his current strength, reached?
Could it be that he was also a Martial Saint? A Martial Saint even younger than the white-clothed youth!
Had the Chu father and daughter known that this Shi Feng had not only slain their family mber Chu Zhu in Starshine City,
But had also slain Wang Cong, the genius Young Lord of the Dragon Tiger Sect who ranked eighth among the Top Ten Powerhouses in Tianlan Imperial City, a practitioner in the Martial Saint Realm. I wonder, what kind of wonderful expression they would have.
Next, Xueh Wuheng turned to Chu Yue and asked, "Is this the Power Barrier set up by your ancestors? What Realm had your ancestor reached at that ti?"
Upon hearing Xueh Wuheng inquire about his ancestors from the Chu Family, Chu Yue’s expression of surprise slowly dissipated, replaced by one of pride. He said, "Legend has it that my ancestor from the Chu Family had reached the pinnacle of cultivation. I’m not entirely sure of the specifics regarding his realm, but we, the descendants of the Chu Family, infer that our ancestor’s cultivation level must have reached the Realm of Martial Emperor."
"Martial Emperor Realm?" After listening to Chu Yue’s words, Xueh Wuheng sensed the invisible, mysterious, and powerful force below once more, then nodded his head and replied, "He must have reached the Martial Emperor."
However, Xueh Wuheng’s deanor didn’t seem completely certain. He turned his head to look at Shi Feng and asked, "Young Master Feng, in your opinion, to what extent has the power of this barrier reached?"
"The peak of Nine-star Martial Saint, just one step away from the Martial Emperor Realm," Shi Feng answered.
"Oh?"
"Oh?"
After hearing Shi Feng’s words, both Chu Yue and Xueh Wuheng voiced a light "Oh," as they both stared at Shi Feng. Chu Yue spoke up, "Brother Shi, why are you so certain that my Chu Family ancestor was at the peak of Nine-star Martial Saint, rather than in the Martial Emperor Realm?"
Chu Yue believed that even if Shi Feng was an evil demon, or had defied the heavens, he couldn’t reach that level. Soone who could not reach that realm naturally wouldn’t be able to truly sense the power of that realm.
To Chu Yue, and for the Chu Family, their ancestor’s strength was a symbol of the Chu Family’s glory. Naturally, they believed the stronger the ancestor, the better.
Although the peak of Nine-star Martial Saint was only a step away from the Martial Emperor, without taking that step, one remained a saint; crossing it, one beca an emperor.
There was simply no comparison between the power of the two or the degree of glory it brought to their Chu Family.
In the hearts of the Chu Family mbers, it was taken for granted that their once powerful ancestor was a Martial Emperor who towered above the rest of the world!
When Chu Yue posed his question, Shi Feng didn’t delve into an extensive explanation. He simply responded indifferently, "I can sense the power of this barrier; when the person erected it, they were in the Nine-star Martial Saint Realm."
"You can sense that?" Chu Yue murmured in a low voice. Although he didn’t believe it, he didn’t dwell on this matter with Shi Feng either, after all, this man was a great benefactor to his family of three, a great benefactor to the Chu Family.
Subsequently, Chu Yue said with a smile, "Let’s not discuss this anymore. Now, I will open this passage to the Sealing Land."
As he spoke, Chu Yue’s right hand flipped over, and an ancient-looking golden key imdiately appeared in the palm of his hand.
With his left hand, Chu Yue ford an ancient and profound handprint. Influenced by that handprint, the golden key in the palm of his right hand began to sparkle with golden light.
At the sa ti, the glimring key began to rise slowly, leaving the palm of Chu Yue’s right hand. Just then, Chu Yue’s right hand began to condense a ancient handprint, solidifying together with the handprint ford by his left hand.
The handprints continually morphed, and golden beams of light shot out from the handprints of Chu Yue’s hands, toward the golden key that had risen in front of Chu Yue’s eyes.
As Chu Yue released the golden light, the ancient key shined brighter and, becoming dazzlingly radiant; the whole void was dyed gold, resplendent and sparkling with golden light!
"Open!" And at that mont, Chu Yue shouted in a deep voice. The golden key, shimring with golden light, suddenly trembled violently, transforming into a streak of golden light—like a golden teor streaking across the void, it sped down towards the seemingly lifeless small hillside!
