Chapter 111 - Eight Great Realms
Zhao Feng’s actions caused the other disciples nearby to start sweating. Chen Feng had thrown his socks in front of Zhao Feng then left quickly, so he didn’t see the latter's actions.
Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan let out a breath.
Zhao Feng walked out of where the disciples lived and he went around to other places to familiarize himself with them.
In another few days time, the Clan would give the new disciples tasks. Soon, Zhao Feng came to where the library was. This library was open to any outer disciple, and Zhao Feng couldn’t be shocked as he saw the skills inside.
“The martial arts of the outer library include half-Holy martial arts and Holy martial arts, which every disciple can see.”
Zhao Feng felt that this was incredible. Outside, a half-Holy martial art was already rare, and Holy martial arts was just a legend.
But the Holy martial arts here were all seen as 'Mortal' martial arts.
Mortal, Spiritual, Earth and Sky. This was how the Holy martial arts were ranked. Every tier was split into four ranks: low, middle, high and peak.
Zhao Feng was somewhat knowledgeable. His Silver Wall Technique belonged to the Low Class Mortal Holy martial arts, but it was one of the best among the low class.
Zhao Feng roughly scanned the books in the library and he found that most of them weren’t better than his Silver Wall Technique.
He clearly remembered Lord Guanjun saying that once one became an inner disciple, they would be able to get better martial arts, so he shouldn’t learn too many lower class skills right now.
Zhao Feng finished scanning across these Mortal Class martial arts, but with no interest at all as this wasn’t his aim.
Zhao Feng then tried to find books about the Clans to add to his knowledge. One of the books introduced the history of the Clan, but Zhao Feng wasn’t very interested. But one part of the text explained the realms back in the Ancient Era.
“The path of cultivation is split into Eight great realms: Consolidated Realm, Ascended Realm, True Spirit Realm, Origin Core Realm, Void God Realm, Mystic Light Realm and Heavenly Divine Realm.” When Zhao Feng saw this, his heart skipped a beat.
This was the first time he heard about the realms after the True Spirit Realm. But in the book, it said that there was almost no one above the True Spirit Realm in the Azure Flower Continent, so there wasn’t much information about the Origin Core Realm and above.
At this same time, it also said that the Heavenly Divine Realm wasn’t proven to exist.
After reading some other books, Zhao Feng now knew far more about the Azure Flower Continent than before.
*************************8
After sitting in the library for half a day, Zhao Feng returned back to where he lived. As he went back to his room, he heard the moans of pain from next door.
“Brother Yang! Brother Nan!” Zhao Feng’s expression changed as he walked out of his room and saw Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan with black faces next door. “What happened?”
Zhao Feng’s expression turned dim. Seeing his two brothers like this, his heart fell.
“It’s that bastard Chen Feng! He came to here to find you, but we still weren’t his opponent even though Brother Yang and I teamed up,” Nan Gongfan said through his clenched teeth.
Ridiculous! After knowing what had happened, his heart burned with anger.
Truthfully, he was the one who had gotten both Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan into this situation.
Chen Feng returned two hours later and didn’t find Zhao Feng here. Instead of finishing his ‘task’, Zhao Feng had destroyed his socks which caused Chen Feng to go into a fit. But because Zhao Feng wasn’t present, Chen Feng released his anger on Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan.
Even though the two had teamed up they still had no chance at all against Chen Feng.
Zhao Feng had to admit that he had underestimated Chen Feng’s strength. One had to know that when Yang Qingshan and Nan Gongfan teamed up, they were able to suppress those of the ninth rank, and Chen Feng was still able to beat them easily. This meant that his true strength was even higher than Ye Linyun’s.
“Where did Chen Feng go?” Zhao Feng’s eyes scanned his surroundings as he decided to avenge the two.
Teng!
He leapt onto the the roof and surveyed the area with his sharp eyes.
At a certain point in time, Zhao Feng’s eyes landed on a small pavilion on a mountain a few kilometers away. Inside that pavilion were four figures.
Zhao Feng was extremely familiar with two of them, Quan Chen and Chen Feng. Apart from them, there was also two other outer disciples.
“En, Chen Feng, good job. Remember, don’t let those brats have a good time,” Quan Chen said with a face full of smiles. Being an inner disciple, Chen Feng and the others were extremely respectful towards him.
Zhao Feng wasn’t able to hear what they were saying, but he could guess what it was about. Just like Lord Guanjun had suspected, Zhao Feng and the other two wouldn’t be bullied by Hai Yun Master himself, but those under him would bully them…
Good! Very good! Zhao Feng took in a long breath as his eyes became sharp.
Under the flame of anger, he returned back to his room and started to train the Four Wind Stances and Star Finger. Since Zhao Feng wouldn’t be able to break through in Silver Wall Technique any time soon, the only way he would gain strength quickly would be through Star Finger and the Four Wind Stances.
From the anger in his heart, he was able to gain a few more insights into the fourth stance, Burning Wind Stance, because to train this, one needed to have the urge of destruction and Zhao Feng’s anger pushed him to this. Apart from this, his Star Finger had crept forwards towards the seventh level even though it hadn’t broken through yet.
******************************
On the same night, Chen Feng once again appeared.
“New brat, our feud earlier hasn’t settled yet," an arrogant voice appeared from outside the door.
The hearts of Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan next door both shook.
Good! Under Chen Feng’s exclamation, Zhao Feng opened his door and slowly walked out.
At this time, the nearby newly entered disciples such as Xiao Sun, Yun Mengxiang, Liu Yue’er, and everyone came out.
“A foolish little clown.”
Zhao Feng closed in one step at a time towards Chen Feng as his eyes became colder and colder. As the killing intent and anger appeared, an aura of destruction was spread. This was the insight gained from the Burning Wind Stance, but Zhao Feng hadn’t fully controlled it yet.
Chen Feng’s heart skipped a beat, but then he felt that something was off. How could a brat of the eighth rank of the Consolidated Realm give him pressure?
“Mountain Opening Stance!” Chen Feng raised his hands and used a Low Class Mortal Skill, which was equivalent to a Holy martial art. As his hand lifted, an aura of splitting the heavens appeared from Chen Feng’s body.
Star Finger! Tornado Stance!
Zhao Feng stabbed out with his finger and beams of azure light swept through the air.
Boooom! The two moves clashed.
After the first exchange, both Zhao Feng and Chen Feng moved back.
Chen Feng was shocked, he couldn’t imagine that a youth of the eighth rank was able to fight with him.
The nearby disciples were all surprised.
One Line Star Finger!
Zhao Feng immediately stabbed out once more as rays of azure light sliced through the air like fireworks.
His Star Finger was almost at the seventh level, which was the highest possible, and under the merging of the Tornado Stance, its speed and damage reached an entire new height.
Tok! Tok! Tok!
Explosions sounded in the air as their moves clashed. Even someone as strong as Chen Feng, who had reached peak ninth rank, was pushed back. In just a moment's time, miniature holes appeared in his clothes and he was lightly injured.
“Mountain Opening Earth Splitting!” Chen Feng exclaimed and then he used his most powerful move, causing the ground to tremble. This was inside the Clan, and the material making up the ground had surpassed metal. If this move was used outside, the ground would’ve crumbled.
Star Finger! Partial Wind Stance!
A thin layer of sharpness appeared on the azure light.
Partial Wind Slice, the 3rd of the 4 Wind Stances, whose forte was offense!
Shoooooooook~
The Inner Strength around Chen Feng had been pierced through and a bloody mark appeared on his chest. If it was another inch deeper, it would have pierced his heart.
Plop!
He fell onto the ground, face white. Zhao Feng’s move just then was too sharp, just a bit more and his life would have ended there.
Sssssss!
The nearby disciples all took in cold breaths.
“I can’t believe that the power of the Partial Wind Stance is so strong, after merging with Star Finger, it could almost surpass a Low Class Mortal skill.” Even Zhao Feng himself was surprised. “The insights in the Partial Wind Stance is cruelness, sharpness like the chilling wind in Winter. This causes Star Finger to reach an entire new level.”
If the third Stance, Partial Wind Stance, was already so strong, then how powerful would the fourth Stance, Burning Wind Stance, be?
“F*** off!” Zhao Feng sent Chen Feng flying with his foot. He looked disdainfully at this dog who bullied the weak and sucked up to the strong.
“Yes yes!” Chen Feng’s face was white as he quickly retreated.
After this battle, the nearby older disciples were all wary of Zhao Feng, while the newly entered disciples were all joyful.
Xiao Sun and Yun Mengxiang both looked at each other and saw the stunned look in each other’s eyes.
“Brother Zhao, thank you,” Yang Qingshan said gratefully.
“Brother Zhao, be careful. I heard that the top twenty outer disciples all have cultivation reaching the half step-Ascended Realm,” Nan Gongfan warned. Half-Step Ascended Realm was the same half-step Holy martial realm that First Guard was at.
Zhao Feng nodded his head. Under this pressure, more of his potential would be ignited. As long as the opponent didn’t reach the Ascended Realm, he at least had the power to fight back.
It was extremely quiet for the next two days, Zhao Feng and the others didn’t even get disturbed and using this chance, Zhao Feng immediately started cultivating and his Star Finger reached the seventh level!
At the same time, his Partial Wind Stance was almost fully learned.
