# Chapter 1420: The Key to Holy City Central Continent
Lin Feng naturally understood the reasoning Stone Emperor spoke of. It was like how if he were to deal with a Heavenly Martial Realm cultivator now, perhaps a single angry roar could kill them. But a Martial Emperor who had mastered the power of laws was truly too terrifying for a Venerable Martial Realm cultivator. If Stone Emperor were to use law-based divine abilities to attack, it would cause heaven and earth to shatter.
"Alright, your path is still long. There's no need to rush. For you, becoming an Emperor is a foregone conclusion. It just depends on how many types of law power you can master. Now, follow me!" Stone Emperor said with a smile. Lin Feng nodded slightly, then called out to Meng Qing and Qiu Yuexin. The three of them rode the wind together with Stone Emperor.
Before long, Lin Feng arrived at the mountain range he had first stepped into when entering this Small World. At the top of that peak stood several familiar figures. Seeing them, Lin Feng revealed a hint of a smile and quickly stepped forward, calling out: "Teacher, Senior Uncle, you've all come!"
It turned out that these arrivals were precisely the three teachers of Tian Xuan Peak: Snow Venerable, Fire Venerable, and Sword Madman. Another person was Tianjizi. Last time Lin Feng returned, he had spoken with them, informing them about Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor becoming Emperors. He hadn't expected that after settling matters at Heavenly Lake, they would truly come to the Eight Wastelands.
"Xiao Feng, hearing Senior Uncle talk about you, now we teachers and senior uncles are no match for you!" Snow Venerable said with a smile, though his face carried a hint of pride. After all, Lin Feng was his disciple. Seeing him achieve such accomplishments made him very happy. A disciple surpassing the teacher was an excellent disciple.
Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders. His teacher called Stone Emperor senior uncle, while he called Stone Emperor master — this was truly a mess. Stone Emperor had said they should each address each other according to their own relationships, but when they were all together, it was somewhat awkward.
"Let's each address each other as we normally would. Martial artists need not be constrained by such formalities." Stone Emperor seemed to see Lin Feng's awkwardness and spoke with a smile.
"Teacher, how is Shi Yun?" Lin Feng asked Fire Venerable.
"She's fine. She wanted to come with me too, but I didn't allow it. It was hard enough for us three old fellows to get here — the distance is too great." Fire Venerable said with a laugh. Indeed, crossing the Wasteland Sea from Qian Domain to reach the Eight Wastelands was a very long journey. One could tell from the travel-worn appearance of the several teachers.
"Teacher, your timing isn't the best though." Lin Feng shrugged. The Eight Wastelands were in turmoil now. Heavenly Terrace had formed a life-and-death enmity with the Qi Family and Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress, making it inconvenient to go out.
"No one has seen them yet. I'll help them undergo some transformation, let them cultivate for a while, then send them out of Heavenly Terrace. They can train in various places across the Eight Wastelands Realm and avoid contact with Heavenly Terrace. Since no one knows them anyway." Stone Emperor wasn't too concerned.
Lin Feng nodded. This was naturally the best arrangement. His teachers would undergo transformation, enhance their talents, and their future martial path would be much smoother.
"Alright Lin Feng, you don't need to worry about this side. Time is limited. Go cultivate on your own and try to make your strength a bit stronger. I'll call you when the time comes." Stone Emperor said to Lin Feng. Lin Feng nodded slightly, took his leave from his teachers, and departed with Meng Qing and Qiu Yuexin.
In the following days, Lin Feng cultivated quietly, refining the Supreme Sacred Artifact great axe, comprehending the art of fusing essences, and occasionally practicing Sacred Mark power. This peaceful period lasted over twenty days before Stone Emperor found him again, gathering him and the eleven personal disciples including Hou Qinglin together.
On the mountain peak, Stone Emperor looked at the eleven disciples, his expression suddenly turning serious. He said: "The place you are going to this time will be extremely dangerous. Not only are the people you face dangerous, but the place itself is unpredictable. No one knows what you will encounter once you step inside — it could be opportunity, it could be death."
"The agreement of the Emperors... the final destination?" Lin Feng's heart trembled. Selecting monstrous talents from across the entire Eight Wastelands Realm, subjecting them to cruel elimination until only a hundred remained. That place — what was there? Why did the Emperors jointly establish rules, sparing no effort to send their disciples inside?
"This journey can be said to be related to your future, your martial path. There may even be opportunities to become an Emperor within." Stone Emperor said solemnly. Before him were only the eleven personal disciples and Mu Chen, no one else. It seemed the Emperors had an agreement that this matter could not be disclosed.
"When you enter that place, remember, there is only one goal: obtain a Martial Emperor's destiny containing law power, then walk out alive. A Martial Emperor's destiny contains the law power condensed by a Martial Emperor. It can help you step into the Martial Emperor realm when you reach the peak of Venerable Martial. Moreover, it has another use — it is the key to Holy City Central Continent!"
Stone Emperor spoke solemnly, causing Lin Feng's heart to tremble. A Martial Emperor's destiny — a destiny containing law power. And it was the key to Holy City Central Continent.
What was Holy City Central Continent? One needed to obtain this Martial Emperor's destiny to go there.
Xiao Ya had once told him it was an independent place. Both Old Man Xiao and Meng Qing's mistress had also instructed him not to go there before he had sufficient strength. Now it seemed it wasn't just a matter of willingness — whether one could even go was the question. One had to obtain a Martial Emperor's destiny to have the key to Holy City Central Continent!
"Master, what is Holy City Central Continent?" This question had existed in Lin Feng's heart for a long time. Where did those people he encountered in the Divine Temple come from? Was it Holy City Central Continent? He still remembered when he walked out of the Demon God Temple, he had never heard of those place names.
Moreover, the common understanding of the continent's people was that Central Continent was located at an extreme northern point. But could one truly reach it by crossing the Eight Wastelands Realm? Since arriving in the Eight Wastelands, no one had ever spoken of it. It was as if it were a place everyone knew of and had heard about, but no one had ever been to.
"I will tell you after you come out. Now, let's set out!" Stone Emperor responded with a serious expression. He waved his hand, and clouds appeared. Lin Feng and the others stepped onto the rolling clouds. Then, with a thought from Stone Emperor, leaving only Mu Chen behind, the group shot out of the Small World.
Amidst the rolling clouds, Stone Emperor led everyone forward. Before long, the sound of rushing water came from below. Lin Feng looked down and his expression froze. They had actually arrived at the edge of the Wasteland Sea.
"That place is in the Wasteland Sea?" The clouds advanced into the Wasteland Sea. Moreover, Lin Feng discovered that the Wasteland Sea originally had a no-fly zone power — one couldn't reach a certain height. But now Stone Emperor was ignoring the no-fly zone. This no-fly zone should be a type of law power. The clouds advanced above the no-fly law, as if the aura of the Wasteland Sea couldn't invade above.
"The Wasteland Sea... the destination is truly the Wasteland Sea. What secrets does this Wasteland Sea hide?"
As they advanced, Lin Feng saw a black dot in the distance. As the black dot drew nearer, the people here discovered it was the people of Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress. Heavenly Dragon Emperor was leading the four princes of Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress.
"Stone Emperor has arrived early!" A rolling voice came from the distance, and then everyone saw Qi Emperor's figure as well.
"With so many of our fellow disciples advancing in rank, naturally we had to come early. As for Senior Qi Emperor, the Qi Family was completely eliminated. Why bother coming to join the fun?" Xing Zhan said sarcastically, without any fear.
"When an Emperor speaks, is there room for you to interrupt?" Qi Emperor's divine eyes were sharp, as if they could tear through the void. Stone Emperor moved his mind, and a earthen-yellow shield appeared before Xing Zhan. With a booming explosion, the shield shattered, and earthen-yellow energy danced in the void.
"Qi Emperor, you are truly becoming more and more unbearable!" Stone Emperor said coldly.
"An ill-mannered junior naturally needs to be taught a lesson. Eleven people from Heavenly Terrace — I wonder how many will still be alive after this trip!" Qi Emperor said icily. Before long, the crowd saw people waiting ahead. Many factions had already arrived.
"It seems I'm a bit late." Stone Emperor smiled and descended to a large area. The Wen Family Martial Emperor and Heavenly Demon Emperor nodded slightly at Stone Emperor, greeting him.
Heavenly Terrace was the closest, so they had set out later. One by one, twenty-one factions had already arrived. They were all wondering how the Undying Heavenly Palace would come.
"Everyone has been waiting long." At this moment, from afar, an ethereal, illusory figure led the people of Undying Heavenly Palace to descend. It was precisely the old palace master of Undying Heavenly Palace.
"A divine thought!" Lin Feng looked at the old palace master of Undying Heavenly Palace. It wasn't his actual body.
"If the old palace master finds it inconvenient, I could have gone to Undying Heavenly Palace to bring them. There was no need to come in person." Qi Emperor said lightly, but it gave people a sinister feeling.
"I can still move. No need to trouble Senior Qi Emperor." The old palace master said calmly. Now, twenty-two factions had arrived, but everyone still didn't move, as if waiting for something.
After some time, from afar, a vast group of figures rolled in — many people, over a hundred. Seeing two figures among them, Lin Feng's eyes suddenly froze. Ice Emperor! Snow Lord!
"The people of the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms have also arrived!" Lin Feng's heart trembled slightly, quite surprised. The Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms and the Eight Wastelands Realm indeed had countless connections.
Seeing these people descend, a hint of a smile clearly appeared in Qi Emperor's eyes. Before Qi Emperor, not far away, a group of Venerable Martial Realm young figures knelt on one knee and respectfully called out to Qi Emperor: "Your Highness!"
"The sons of my Qi Kingdom are all outstanding. Very good!" Qi Emperor said cheerfully. This made Lin Feng's mind go blank, very surprised. Qi Kingdom? Your Highness?
Qi Emperor stepped forward, walked before the middle-aged man who had brought the Qi Kingdom people, and slightly bowed: "Is Father Emperor well?"
"I am well. It's just this worthless son of mine who didn't leave me a single one!" The middle-aged man snorted coldly, appearing particularly displeased. Then his sharp eyes descended upon Heavenly Terrace. A terrifying oppressive force descended upon Heavenly Terrace, making Lin Feng and the others feel suffocated. Qi Emperor's father!
The ruler of the Qi Kingdom in the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms was Qi Emperor's father. No wonder Qi Qianxing had appeared in the Divine Temple.
