# Chapter 1812: The Palace That Appeared Out of Thin Air
The "little lover" Fox Moon spoke of naturally referred to Mu Yun. Seeing Lin Feng come to visit her, Mu Yun was naturally happy. The kind-hearted girl had a gentle smile at the corners of her mouth, simply gazing at Lin Feng as if she had forgotten how to speak.
"You're still as beautiful as ever." Lin Feng didn't know what else to say, so he couldn't help but let out a soft voice, causing Mu Yun's small hands to tremble slightly, a faint blush appearing on her pretty face.
"Have you been doing well out there?" Mu Yun interrupted, her beautiful eyes looking at Lin Feng, her smile still as gentle as before.
"En, I'm doing well. As for you, do you feel bored here?" Lin Feng said to Mu Yun.
Mu Yun shook her head and said calmly, "No, I study planting herbs and refining medicine with my teacher. In my free time, I have Sister Fox Moon teach me cultivation. It's quite pleasant, though sometimes I miss the tribe."
"I happen to be going back this time. If you want to return to the tribe, why don't I take you back?" Lin Feng knew that Mu Yun had a simple temperament, not pursuing the path of a martial arts powerhouse, nor having any intention to contend with others. The kind-hearted girl, when she was a priestess in the tribe, only wanted to help others.
"Return?" Mu Yun's beautiful eyes froze slightly. "Can I go back?"
"En, from now on, no one will dare to oppress the tribes in the desert. The rule of the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses will no longer exist." Lin Feng smiled and nodded. However, Mu Yun's gaze turned to the thatched cottage beside them, where an aged figure's voice came from: "Yun'er, if you want to go back, then go. Just remember to come visit me every now and then."
"Teacher." Mu Yun called out softly. Fox Moon's figure flickered and instantly arrived, smiling as she said, "Sister Yun'er, go in peace. It's indeed boring for you to be alone on Yaoye Island. It's better to follow Brother Lin Feng, and he can take care of you."
Hearing Fox Moon's words, Mu Yun was startled. She secretly glanced at Lin Feng, then gently shook her head: "I'll go back to the tribe. Staying by Lin Feng's side would only cause him trouble."
"That's fine too. Say goodbye to the old fellow." Fox Moon said to Mu Yun. Mu Yun nodded and approached the small hut. The voice coming from inside revealed some reluctance. After she came out, Fox Moon took her and Lin Feng to leave together, as if she was even more eager to get out than Lin Feng, which left Lin Feng quite speechless.
"Lin Feng, you left quickly enough last time. Not long after you left, an emperor from the Wuji Palace found this place and actually stayed on my Yaoye Island for a full two years. Quite patient, but in the end, he didn't wait for you and had to leave." In the void, Fox Moon smiled and said, making Lin Feng realize that the Wuji Palace had indeed been keeping an eye on him. They had pursued him on the road from Yanjin City to Sky-Gazing Ancient Capital, and had even come to Yaoye Island looking for him.
Three figures soon gathered with the others. Now, with Lin Feng's group of nine plus Prajna, War Punishment, Li Hen, and Yuan Fei, their lineup had become even stronger, and there was also Fox Moon, such a enchanting creature.
"Leaving so soon?" Divine Feather Martial Emperor asked Lin Feng and the others.
"En, Uncle Divine Feather, seeing that you are all well is enough. I won't stay longer." Lin Feng said with a smile. Martial artists don't dwell on trivialities; meeting once and seeing everyone well is best.
"Alright. With Fox Moon accompanying you, nothing should happen. If Dust Inverse Martial Emperor causes you trouble, bring up the old agreement with him. That fellow looks for trouble. I wouldn't mind if you taught his so-called disciples a lesson." Divine Feather Martial Emperor said indifferently. Lin Feng shrugged. When Divine Feather Martial Emperor took him away back then, Dust Inverse Martial Emperor and Divine Feather Martial Emperor had made an agreement to see whose disciple was stronger. If Divine Feather Martial Emperor hadn't mentioned it, Lin Feng really wouldn't have remembered, since Qi Yuchen and Zhou Tianruo and the others were no longer on his list of rivals.
As for the one Dust Inverse valued most, Wen Tian Fortress's Wen Aofeng, even if he was exceptionally talented and had stepped into the Martial Emperor realm very early, in these years, he surely couldn't have reached the Mid-rank Emperor. Not everyone was Chu Chunqiu.
"Uncle Divine Feather, uncles of the demon clan, Lin Feng takes his leave." Lin Feng cupped his hands to everyone. Prajna and the others also said their farewells. The group then departed in a rolling manner, only stopping briefly on Yaoye Island before leaving, heading toward the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses region of Qingdi Mountain.
In the void, on the Ancient Sail, there was now a formidable lineup of over a dozen people. Among them were four very beautiful women: Qing Feng, Mu Yun, Mu Linxue, and Fox Moon, each possessing a different temperament of beauty. This created a somewhat subtle atmosphere on the Ancient Sail. Especially since Fox Moon would occasionally tease Lin Feng, asking about the relationship between Qing Feng and Lin Feng, or whether Mu Linxue liked Lin Feng, which drove Lin Feng to the brink of collapse.
This female enchantress had now clearly sorted out everyone's relationships, including the news that Lin Feng was at the War King Academy in Holy City Central Continent. Although it made Lin Feng laugh and cry, Fox Moon did add some fun to the group on the Ancient Sail, allowing everyone to quickly get along harmoniously. After all, they were all connected because of Lin Feng, and many were not yet very familiar with each other.
Years had passed. The Qingdi Mountain region, vast and expansive, remained stable and uneventful. Everything operated in an orderly manner. The people of every main city lived their own lives, and every martial artist walked their own path.
The Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses region was no exception. Although there were constant frictions and undercurrents surging in the dark, on the surface, everything was peaceful. However, the people of the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses region understood that Qi Tian Fortress and Wen Tian Fortress had long been at odds. After all, Wen Tian Fortress had replaced Qi Tian Fortress in seizing the ten-thousand-year control of the Small World.
At the same time, because of Lin Feng's instigation back then, Qi Tian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace had also developed rifts. Although the relationship had eased somewhat after they later learned everything was Lin Feng's doing, their conflicts remained intense, with constant clashes. Especially the collisions between their younger generations never ceased, not even for those cultivators from Qingdi Mountain who had already entered it.
At this moment, in the buffer zone between the nine main cities of the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses region, on a bustling trading street, crowds of people came and went in an endless stream, making it exceptionally lively.
Xia Tianfan walked along this trading street, having just come out of a trading pavilion that dealt in rare mineral veins, his brows slightly furrowed.
"Just who has such a grand operation, actually wanting a large amount of Purple Star Meteorite? Purple Star Meteorite has strong compatibility with Sacred Marks and can be used for refining artifacts or carving stone platform formations. But such a large quantity of Purple Star Meteorite—what is this for? Moreover, the price of this meteorite ore is not low. In large quantities, it would be a terrifying number."
Xia Tianfan frowned, puzzled. Just who had such a big operation?
"The Purple Star Meteorite produced from a single Purple Star vein is also limited, and its texture is extremely hard, able to withstand attacks from Martial Emperors without easily shattering. The only two veins in our Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses region—one is controlled by Wen Tian Fortress, and the other by Great Zhou Immortal Palace. For someone to have such a big operation, I'm afraid the people of Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Wen Tian Fortress want to know who it is even more than we do."
A person beside Xia Tianfan also spoke, somewhat unable to understand. A large amount of Purple Star Meteorite—what kind of items would be needed to trade for it? Who was controlling this?
"What I want to know is, what does he want to use all this Purple Star Meteorite for?" Xia Tianfan murmured. Then he looked up and saw several familiar figures ahead—none other than Zhou Tianruo and Wen Tiange.
"Brother Xia, you're well, I hope." Zhou Tianruo stepped forward, smiling slightly at Xia Tianfan.
Xia Tianfan's indifferent eyes swept over Zhou Tianruo without acknowledging him, instead fixing his gaze on Wen Tiange. This caused a faint anger to rise in Zhou Tianruo. This bastard Xia Tianfan, completely ignoring him like this.
"Besides the Purple Star Meteorite that someone wants from Wen Tian Fortress, does the other party want any other materials?" Xia Tianfan asked Wen Tiange.
"Yes. It seems that besides Purple Star Meteorite, the other party also wants Red Flame Stone and Gold Fusion Sand, all in large quantities." Wen Tiange spoke, causing Xia Tianfan's heart to tremble slightly. All were extremely hard materials used for constructing secret chambers. What was this for?
"Has Wen Tian Fortress found anything out?" Xia Tianfan asked again.
Wen Tiange shook his head. "I only know that the other party's wealth is terrifying. The items they offered for trade made the owners of those trading pavilions unable to refuse, willing to pay any price to help them prepare."
"But I think it won't be too long before what the other party wants to do becomes clear." Wen Tiange spoke again, then nodded slightly to Xia Tianfan and took his leave.
Things turned out just as Wen Tiange had guessed. Soon, his words were verified. Ten days later, they found out what the other party wanted to do.
In the buffer zone of the nine main cities of the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses region, in the central area, overnight, a majestic building rose from the ground, appearing out of thin air. This majestic building was composed of a series of well-arranged grand palaces and corridors interwoven together, like a small city. The other buildings originally located in this area had been leveled overnight, and no one complained, presumably having received proper compensation.
When the morning crowd saw this small city, they felt their breathing quicken, their hearts pounding as if they had witnessed a miracle. This was too unbelievable. Although martial artists possessed abilities that ordinary people did not, to build a vast Immortal Palace in just one short night, and made entirely of pure Purple Star Meteorite and other rare mineral materials—this was simply a miracle, an impossible feat. Yet it had forcibly appeared before their eyes.
This was not a Small World possessed by a Martial Emperor powerhouse, but the palace built with those rare mineral materials that had been causing such a stir these past days.
