Chapter 955: I Wonder in the Celestial Palaces Above
"Sophistry!" Heavenly Pivot Master narrowed his eyes, his expression ugly as he stared at Lin Feng. "You are narrow-minded, putting personal grudges above the Heavenly Pivot Peak lineage. Why must you speak so hypocritically!"
"Yes, you are right. I am narrow-minded." Lin Feng sneered, fixing his gaze on Heavenly Pivot Master. "I do not have Senior Heavenly Pivot Master's magnanimity. You have repeatedly made things difficult for me, disregarding my life and death, wanting to hand me over. Yet you expect me, Lin Feng, to protect you and help you improve your cultivation? How utterly ridiculous. Since Senior Heavenly Pivot Master is so righteous, if you now announce before all the seniors of Heavenly Lake that you renounce your position as leader of the Heavenly Pivot Peak lineage and never again set foot on the main peak of Heavenly Pivot to cultivate, I will immediately lay down an Essence Array for Heavenly Pivot Peak, making it a sacred ground for cultivation."
Upon hearing these words, Heavenly Pivot Master's expression stiffened, his face extremely unpleasant. For a moment, he could not speak. To make him give up his position as leader of Heavenly Pivot Peak and never again step onto the main peak of Heavenly Pivot to cultivate—what would he be then? He would gain nothing and would be surpassed by his former subordinates, forced to look at their faces.
"Senior Heavenly Pivot Master speaks endlessly of the good of Heavenly Lake and the Heavenly Pivot Peak lineage. Why are you silent now?" Lin Feng pressed on relentlessly, pressing the question. Heavenly Pivot Master's lips twitched slightly, but in the end, he could not utter a word.
"If you cannot do it yourself, then shut up. What right do you have to stand on the moral high ground and accuse others? Everyone knows why Heavenly Pivot Peak did not receive the same treatment as the other main peaks. It is because Heavenly Pivot Peak has a peak master like you—one who is undeserving of his reputation and deep in scheming. Please leave. Heavenly Pivot Peak does not welcome you."
Lin Feng said coldly, directly issuing an order of expulsion, driving Heavenly Pivot Master out of Heavenly Pivot Peak.
Being expelled by Lin Feng in front of the crowd, Heavenly Pivot Master's face turned extremely ugly. His expression darkened as he stared at Lin Feng and said coldly, "Very well. Until we meet again!"
With that, Heavenly Pivot Master flicked his sleeve, soared into the air, and left Heavenly Pivot Peak directly.
The other peak masters shook their heads slightly. In this vast continent where profit reigned supreme, there were no saints. Heavenly Pivot Master had tried to deal with Lin Feng several times, targeting him ever since the day Lin Feng set foot in Heavenly Lake. His malicious intentions were well known to all. Yet now he still wanted Lin Feng to do things for him—how could that be possible? He could only blame himself for his own misdeeds, which had harmed the Heavenly Pivot Peak lineage.
"Alright. Go into seclusion for a while and let your teachers personally protect you. If you have any questions about cultivation, feel free to ask. One month from now, leave Heavenly Lake and set out for the Eight Wastelands Realm." Heavenly Pivot Old Man said to Lin Feng and the others.
Lin Feng nodded slightly. Since he would eventually leave the Qian Domain, he might as well take this opportunity to venture into the Eight Wastelands Realm.
Heavenly Pivot Old Man and the other peak masters soared away one by one. Lin Feng, Tang Youyou, and the others chose a quiet place on the main peak, which was filled with the aura of Essence, to go into seclusion and cultivate. Snow Venerable, Sword Venerable, and Flame Venerable personally guarded the area beside their cultivation site, ready at any time to answer any questions they might encounter during their cultivation.
Jun Moxi and the others had only recently stepped into the Heavenly Martial Realm, and this process was indeed very important to them. They had accumulated many doubts in their hearts and asked their three teachers one by one. Snow Venerable and the others patiently answered their questions.
On the path of cultivation, aside from relying on one's own comprehension, having a renowned teacher to guide you naturally made things much better. Sometimes, an unintentional word or action could be like a sudden enlightenment, clearing the confusion in one's heart and making cultivation smoother. Take Jun Moxi, for example. He possessed the Undying Martial Soul and had a powerful soul. Now that he had entered the Heavenly Martial Realm and his divine sense was just beginning to form, he needed to have a sufficient understanding of divine sense and then obtain a method to condense it before he could form a powerful divine sense.
As for Yun Feiyang, he had a very high level of attainment in comprehending the momentum of heaven and earth. In this regard, he was somewhat similar to Snow Venerable. Snow Venerable could guide him on how to borrow and manipulate momentum, thereby maximizing the power of his attacks.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed. Lin Feng sat cross-legged in a cave dwelling made of snow. At this moment, Lin Feng's eyes were tightly shut, but his brows were slightly raised, extremely sharp. In his mind, the power of his soul was vast and profound. The residual souls cultivated through the Remnant Soul Heaven Art continuously gathered together, condensing into an illusory and ethereal palace.
The art of divine sense could be said to be even more profound and extensive than martial techniques, with numerous methods. Ordinary divine sense techniques directly attacked with divine sense, which had little killing power. Even if the divine sense was strong, it could not exert too much power. At a deeper level, divine sense power was condensed into knives, spears, swords, and halberds, making the divine sense sharp and able to kill invisibly. Or, like Lin Feng in the past, divine sense was condensed into an ancient bell, which could shake a person's soul and also protect one's own soul.
Later, Yan Di taught Lin Feng a powerful divine sense technique, allowing Lin Feng to condense divine sense power into a palace. A palace was countless times more complex than an ancient bell. With Lin Feng's current soul power, he could only condense the rudimentary form of the palace, unable to make it solid. But its powerful strength was already visible. The last time Lin Feng used it, he trapped another person's divine sense within the divine sense palace and then had the evil spirit kill the opponent's soul.
This was only one of the methods of the palace divine sense. According to Qiongqi's boastful words, if the palace divine sense technique was perfected, there would be more and more methods. Even without relying on the methods within, a single thought from the vast divine sense palace could shake a person to death.
Lin Feng gathered all his focus, using his divine sense power to carve within the palace divine sense, striving to perfect the divine sense palace. The divine sense technique Qiongqi had taught him was extremely powerful, and he needed to work on it bit by bit.
In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed. From Lin Feng's brow, a strong fluctuation suddenly emanated, as if something was about to burst out.
The terrifying soul power caused the space to roll, the wind to howl, and endless green light burst forth from Lin Feng's brow, extremely dazzling.
"Buzz!" A soft sound rang out. The terrifying divine sense power burst forth wildly. Wisps of green light radiated from Lin Feng's brow, then transformed into a vast green jade palace. The green jade light carried a hint of sacred aura.
However, the divine sense palace Lin Feng had condensed was far from perfect. Lin Feng had only outlined a small part of it.
Lin Feng's eyes opened, a sharp gleam flashing. The green jade light shone brilliantly. Lin Feng could almost feel the surging divine sense power within.
Beside him, Qiongqi, who had been quietly closing his eyes, suddenly opened them. Looking at the green jade palace, a strange expression appeared in his eyes. This kid Lin Feng's soul power was far stronger than that of a Second Layer Heavenly Martial Realm cultivator. He had already been able to reach this step.
A palace, a green jade palace. He saw it again.
"I wonder in the celestial palaces above, what year it is tonight!" Qiongqi seemed to be moved by the sight of the palace, murmuring to himself.
This faint sound made Lin Feng's pupils suddenly contract. The green jade light wildly submerged into his brow, and the divine sense palace vanished in an instant. Lin Feng's eyes flickered, staring fixedly at Qiongqi, who was lying there.
"Hmm?" Sensing Lin Feng's abnormality, Qiongqi's eyes flickered as he stared at Lin Feng, wondering why he was reacting like this.
"I wonder in the celestial palaces above, what year it is tonight. Where did you hear those two lines?" Lin Feng stared straight at Qiongqi and asked.
"Why are you asking about this?" Qiongqi asked doubtfully.
"When will the moon be clear and bright? With a cup of wine in hand, I ask the clear sky. I wonder in the celestial palaces above, what year it is tonight!" Lin Feng murmured softly. Qiongqi's large eyes froze, staring at Lin Feng. He stood up and said to Lin Feng, "How do you know that? How do you know it?"
"I asked you first."
"You tell this Emperor first."
"This is a line from a type of poetry from my hometown. Of course I know it." Lin Feng replied.
"Your hometown? Impossible. Snow Moon Kingdom, how could it possibly have that? Absolutely impossible!" Qiongqi shook his head incessantly. He did not believe it.
"My hometown is not Snow Moon Kingdom. You tell me first, how did you know it?" Lin Feng pressed on.
"No, it can't be. Coincidence, it must be just a coincidence!" Yan Di still refused to say. He stood up and slowly walked outside. At this moment, it was a night sky, with the bright moon hanging high. Yan Di looked up at the moon in the void, his thoughts seeming to return to countless years ago, that era when he roamed the world, when countless powerful beings fought for supremacy, and the Emperor's battle soared into the nine clouds of the sky!
