Opening his eyes, Lin Feng saw Xia Youyu looking down at him, her stunning face showing a hint of concern.
Then, he glanced around. This place didn’t seem to be his training room. The furnishings were extrely elegant, as if it was a woman’s boudoir.
"Junior Brother Lin, you’re alright now." Xia Youyu saw Lin Feng awaken and said happily.
"Senior Sister, where is this place?" Lin Feng still showed a trace of weakness.
"This is Senior Sister Su Chen’s boudoir." Ai Jia’s face also appeared before Lin Feng and, looking at him with interest, said: "How did you end up like this, seriously injured, with your spiritual power collapsing and falling into a coma? If it weren’t for Senior Sister Xia Youyu noticing and finding Senior Sister Su Chen to save you, we’d be preparing to collect your body in three days."
Hearing Ai Jia’s words, Lin Feng was greatly amazed. Just seeing the gaze from the past of the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Venerate, left only as an image, had this kind of effect. It was indeed domineering.
"There was always a constant source of vitality within Junior Brother’s body. I think even if I hadn’t rescued him, he could have woken up in two or three years," Su Chen’s calm voice ca over.
"Are you alright now? How did it happen, how did you end up like this?" Su Chen furrowed her elegant brows and asked, as she removed her veil in her own boudoir.
Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "I don’t know either. I just brought sothing out from the Ancient Tomb, a Jade Slip, and then saw an image. After that, I ended up like this."
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s description, Su Chen furrowed her brows and said, "If I’m not mistaken, this should record the master’s image, like an inheritance. Why not pass the inheritance to you instead of subjecting you to such pressure?"
"I don’t know." Lin Feng shook his head.
"Forget it if you don’t know. The mysterious happenings in the Ancient Tomb are indeed nurous," Su Chen did not inquire further but walked to another table, picked up a small dicine bottle, and handed it to Xia Youyu, saying: "Junior Sister Xia, you should feed him the dicine. Although he has awakened, it will still take a day for his body to recover enough for movent!"
Lin Feng felt it as well and could only helplessly open his mouth, allowing Xia Youyu to feed him two dicine Pills.
"Rest well," Xia Youyu and Ai Jia consoled Lin Feng briefly before leaving.
Lin Feng could only lie there quietly, while Su Chen was constantly poring over a dicinal scripture, occasionally taking out so herbs and appearing to discern their properties, before starting to concoct or perform Alchemy.
One could say she was living quite a busy life. Seeing that Su Chen was engrossed in her own matters, Lin Feng naturally did not talk, but continued to recall the general principles of the Heavenly Destiny Seven Swords, slowly pondering over them and that river of ti, trying to integrate them into his own Swordsmanship to advance sowhat.
As for that Heavenly Creation Jade Scroll, Lin Feng dared not touch it again. Those three gazes placed on him simultaneously were simply unsolvable.
If not for his hard fate and realizations, he might have perished long ago.
He dared not think back anymore, and could only try to integrate these two insights. There’s no doubt, his understanding of Sword Dao advanced rapidly, and directly mastering the Star Sword Technique allowed him to achieve the Dazzling Star Realm overnight.
No wonder it’s the Heavenly Destiny Seven Swords. If he could master the first move, even the six old monsters in his body wouldn’t be his match.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng secretly felt excited.
A day went by quickly, and in the evening, Ai Jia and Xia Youyu appeared again, bringing lots of food for Lin Feng. Lin Feng had also regained his mobility, and True Qi started flowing through his limbs. He estimated that after another night, he’d recover seventy to eighty percent of his Power.
Su Chen, at this ti, also took the lunchbox from Xia Youyu and others. For Su Chen, unless necessary, she wouldn’t leave this room. Her main tasks each day were Cultivation and studying dicinal scriptures, showing she was a very quiet woman.
"Senior Brother Huangfu is back." Xia Youyu said to Su Chen, and only Xia Youyu knew that because Su Chen had let go of her obsession with becoming the Sect Leader, she broke through and reached the Four Spirits Seal.
Su Chen smiled faintly and said, "The Sect Leader must be very happy."
"Yes, he brought back a Divine Weapon, a Secret Manual, a bottle of Elixirs, and a piece of top-tier crafting material. How could that not make the Sect Leader happy?" Ai Jia said with resentnt.
"Besides, the Sect Leader also verified that this person was a Spiritual Officer from the Heavenly Court in the Ancient Tis, nad Wang Lingguan," Xia Youyu added.
"The Heavenly Court, such a distant mory. But it’s a very domineering na." Ai Jia laughed.
Su Chen nodded faintly, while Lin Feng was deeply focused on eating. After several days without food, he was starving.
At this ti, Xia Youyu continued, "The sect competition is about to begin. This ti, they’re selecting the top ten experts anew."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen’s face remained unchanged and said, "Yes, but this ti Zhu Chan might not be among the top ten experts anymore."
The two won fell into silence. Indeed, after becoming Huangfu’s furnace, Zhu Chan’s Power would only regress, not progress. This was evident without proof, so both won understood that Zhu Chan would probably end up like Liu Ruyan, just a vase.
Ai Jia sighed and said, "I really don’t understand why our sect’s top Divine Skill is such a Cultivation Technique. It’s so frustrating."
Su Chen’s face remained calm, saying nothing, while Lin Feng smiled and said, "Heavenly Rank Techniques are rare. It’s already quite good for the dicine King Pavilion to have one. Besides, didn’t we now acquire a technique from Wang Lingguan? I think the sect should consider replacing its core technique."
Xia Youyu shook her head and said, "Ancient Spirit Techniques are difficult to cultivate and don’t align with modern Cultivation Dao. Moreover, that Spiritual Officer was said to be an Innate spirit, focusing more on arts than Dao, which is why the sect gained several Heavenly Rank Martial Techniques. As for the main technique, it’s still the Supre Pill Scripture."
Su Chen said indifferently, "The position of Sect Leader is secured, but did you hear about this? Gu Haoran from the Righteous Academy killed an Elder from the Treasure Pavilion of the Six Great Sects."
"What? Does this an the Righteous Academy is going to war with the Six Great Sects?" Ai Jia asked in shock.
"That’s not it. The two fought over a supre Treasure Weapon. Later, Gu Haoran was recognized by the supre Treasure Weapon and killed the Four Spirits Seal Elder with his Five Spirit Knot power." Su Chen said blandly.
"I heard this news yesterday; it was sent by the Sect Leader," Su Chen said, sipping her tea. She only had a few bites of food before switching to tea.
Upon hearing the news about Gu Haoran, Lin Feng said, "Isn’t Gu Haoran afraid of retaliation from the Six Great Sects?"
"It’s not necessarily so. After all, the Righteous Academy is one of the four great academies, along with the Spring and Autumn Academy, Jixia Academy, and the National Academy. They’re connected with the Confucian lineage, and won’t let the Six Great Sects take action easily. Besides, the Six Great Sects are busy fighting foreign tribes, so most of their resources are tied up. What’s left in the sects are mostly the old and infirm," Xia Youyu explained.
"That’s right. I heard our dicine King Pavilion will also go soon. It’s just that the front lines can still hold, so the dicine King Pavilion hasn’t been called yet. I heard the situation is not good for the Six Great Sects at the front lines, and we might be up next," Su Chen finally showed a hint of worry on her usually calm face.
Lin Feng was secretly astonished, not having expected that sothing had gone wrong with the Six Great Sects, and that the situation wasn’t good.
