Chapter 1176 - 1174: Breakthrough Again
"So that’s how it is, I’m fast, I’ll go!"
"You dead Old Black, are you faster than me?! Stop competing with me!"
"Old Lei, you fly too fast and you don’t even have a place to stand, it’s better if I go."
"I’ll go, I just won’t fly that fast, and besides, those kids are not ordinary people, they’ll be fine!"
"I should go. My back is so spacious, it’s enough, let me do it!"
"..."
...
Hearing Lin Feng say that, the two Great Demons finally relaxed. It turned out to be about taking the children to the Myriad Immortals Platform, so there was no problem. They both began to argue, each wanting to go, neither wanting to fall behind at this moment and leave a bad impression on Lin Feng.
Watching the two Great Demons almost fight over this issue, Lin Feng was speechless. In the end, he decided to use the Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon, which stopped the argument between the two Great Demons. After being chosen by Lin Feng, the Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon was overjoyed, while the Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger could only watch from the side.
After arranging things here, Lin Feng said to the Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon: "Wait here, I will bring the children over later."
After saying these words, Lin Feng’s figure blurred, and he disappeared from the spot, and the Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon was extremely happy at this moment. Considering the need not to scare the children, it gradually started to fade away, until it seemed to disappear from the spot.
......
Meanwhile, on the other side, under the Myriad Immortals Platform, the pale blue light screen gradually faded. The four major Prominent Families had tokens passed down from ancient times, led people through the fading light screen into the deserted city, each selecting a location to settle down those they came with.
But no one dared to approach the central altar until the final moments, waiting for the red light screen to disappear. Even holding tokens, they wouldn’t dare to approach the area, but this did not prevent everyone from interacting. When these people gathered together, naturally, discussions abounded.
"Haha, have you noticed? The Xia Family’s young group hasn’t arrived yet."
"Alas, they must be scared of our Kong Family, otherwise why haven’t they appeared until now?"
"Maybe the Xia Family has some special plans, after all, I heard that they let a mortal be an instructor, only the Xia Family would do such a thing."
"Exactly, the Kong Family could never pull off something like that, that’s why our Kong Family is stronger than the Xia Family!"
...
The young group from the Kong Family and the youth group watching not far from the Xia Family mocked and ridiculed them. They were unhappy with the people from the Xia Family, knowing that their young group suffered in the market previously. Now that the Xia Family’s young group had not arrived yet, it was a good time to ridicule them, and they wouldn’t miss it.
When people from the Xia Family side heard the taunts, they immediately got angry!
"What did you say?!"
"Our Xia Family people don’t need your commentary!"
"Who says our young group won’t come? It’s not even time yet!"
"What’s wrong with having a mortal as an instructor? Our young kids still dealt with your Kong Family kids, so why are you acting so arrogant now!"
...
The people from the Xia Family side said this very angrily, and their words were harsh. However, deep inside they were extremely frustrated with Lin Feng, yet also very helpless. If it weren’t for Lin Feng taking the children to the Secular World and not having returned yet, how could the Kong Family be so arrogant here!
But now that it was already this time and Lin Feng hadn’t led the children here yet, it seemed highly likely that Lin Feng couldn’t make it anymore. Thinking about this, they were even more upset. This major competition was crucial for determining the rankings of the four major Prominent Families. Without one young group, it would be really difficult for the Xia Family to win now!
"Did you hear that? What a huge joke, they still think that mortal could make it!"
"How could he possibly make it? He hasn’t arrived yet, which means he won’t make it ever!"
"Exactly, how could they be so naive!"
...
When the people from the Kong Family heard this, they immediately laughed, thinking to themselves that Lin Feng hadn’t brought the children yet, which means it’s very likely he won’t come at all. Thinking about this, they couldn’t be more delighted, thinking that choosing a mortal from the Secular World to be the young group’s instructor was just asking for trouble. Now they knew the bitter results, mortals were unreliable after all, and they wondered what the Xia Family was thinking.
"You’re talking nonsense, our Xia Family’s youth group will definitely come."
"If they can’t come, then they can’t come. Stop deluding yourselves."
"Who says they can’t come? They will definitely come."
"Even if they can’t make it, even without the children, our Xia Family can still surpass yours!"
"Oh wow, when did the Xia Family become so high and mighty!"
...
Subsequently, both sides faced off once again. The Kong Family remained cold and mocking, while members of the Xia Family were red-faced with anger. Even if the situation was exactly as the opposition described, they could not afford to lose face now. If it weren’t for the presence of the Kong Family’s elders, they would have been sorely tempted to charge forward and teach them a lesson!
However, Kong Lifeng, the head of the Kong Family, stood aside without uttering a word. He considered it acceptable to agitate the Xia Family in this manner. His presence ensured that the Xia Family dared not act rashly. Smirking at the sight of the Xia Family’s frustration was indeed very satisfying for him.
Xia Yunfeng also noticed the ongoing dispute, but he was helpless. Time was pressing, and seeing as how the appointed time was nearing, he was close to giving up. There was only one path to the Myriad Immortals Platform, and nobody dared to fly through the forest; even flying Dharma Treasures wouldn’t work as they could attract attacks from Demon King-level Demon Beasts. So, there truly was no other possibility but to walk!
But as the situation stood, he could only send people to check with the attitude of giving it one last try. But to his despair, they returned reporting no sign of anyone. Thus Xia Yuntian had no choice but to completely give up on the youth group since it was no longer possible for them to arrive in time.
Currently, his eyebrows were deeply furrowed, as the situation was extremely unfavorable for the Xia Family. Without the participation of the youth group, it was impossible for the Xia Family to secure the last position among the four prominent families. They would need to secure the first position in both the adult and the youth divisions, which was nearly impossible. This completely infuriated him. To think that a well-laid plan was ruined by Lin Feng alone made his blood boil even more...
...
Having left the two Great Demons, Lin Feng approached the children. Without saying a word, he simply stood there, watching the children’s transformations after consuming the fruit, his face bearing a smile. Although the fruits didn’t elevate the children to the Transcendent Realm, their strength had significantly increased, not to mention their potential, which pleased him immensely.
Meanwhile, the children, Xia Lalan, and Xia Yunfeng were all sitting on the ground, fully engrossed in cultivating, oblivious to everything around them, even unaware of Lin Feng’s presence, as the sense of their own transformations and the continual improvement of their strength were too important to miss.
In the blink of an eye, a few hours had passed.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
The first to awaken were the children. In that instant, Gang Qi surged around them, their clothes rustling loudly. Feeling an unprecedented ease and extreme power, the children jumped up excitedly, flailing their fists, not knowing what to do with their joy.
None of them had expected that the pale-gold fruit would be so effective, enhancing their strength so much and even cleansing their marrows, strengthening their bodies. Such an incredible encounter left them at a loss for words, thinking that if only they knew about these fruits earlier, they would have pestered Lin Feng to come here sooner.
Just as this thought crossed their minds, they suddenly realized something—Lin Feng must have visited this place before, otherwise how would Teacher Lin have known about these fruits so well? Wasn’t Lin Feng always with them? When did he come here? What exactly was going on?
The moment their eyes caught sight of Lin Feng, they wanted to speak to him. But before they could, suddenly, a change occurred in the field. From Xia Yunfeng’s body, a burst of light green Gang Qi erupted, spreading in all directions!
"Boom!"
The ring of light green Gang Qi, like a shockwave, destroyed everything around Xia Yunfeng, even stripping off a layer of the ground. Seeing this ring of Gang Qi rushing towards the children and Xia Lalan, Lin Feng waved his hand, causing part of the Gang Qi ring to vanish before them, while the rest continued to destroy everything it encountered.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Yunfeng let out a massive roar!
"Ah..."
As Xia Yunfeng roared, the light green Gang Qi on his body surged violently, shooting up into the sky, then spreading outwards, forming a green cylindrical column dozens of meters in diameter that pierced the sky. Xia Yunfeng within it looked ferocious, as if undergoing a profound event.
Seeing this scene, the children were stunned, unable to comprehend what was happening with Xia Yunfeng. They wondered if Elder Yunfeng had fallen into demoniac madness—otherwise, why would this happen...
Merely a moment passed, and Xia Yunfeng dissipated the surging Gang Qi, returning to normal as if nothing had happened. Now transformed, his eyes wide with disbelief, he couldn’t accept that it was real, having broken through the long-standing barrier; he was now a high-level practitioner of the Middle Stage of the Micro Realm, which felt utterly surreal, as if still in a dream!
However at that moment, an astonishing surge of power erupted from Xia Lalan as well. Pure white Gang Qi enveloped her, making her appear like a fairy descended from heaven, both ethereal and secular. The children nearby were completely stunned.
Then Xia Lalan opened her eyes, immediately dispersing the Gang Qi around her and stood up. Her face was full of smiles, overjoyed by her newfound strength. In just a moment, she had reached the Half-Step to Minute Subtlety Realm. Looking at Lin Feng, excitement shone in her eyes. She had never imagined that she would achieve the level of a Half-Step to Minute Subtlety so soon after her breakthrough, this... this made her almost disbelieve herself...
