Chapter 1472 - 1470: Clash of Divine Sense
"Friend, you can rest assured about this matter. May I boldly ask, did you kill that old guy from the Divine Moon Dynasty?" Wuchen Ancestor looked at Lin Feng and asked with a smile. He was already well aware of the Divine Moon Dynasty’s affairs and had been curious about the young man who could kill that old fellow. Now, seeing Lin Feng, he could roughly guess that Lin Feng was the one who did it. Apart from Lin Feng, no other young person possessed such strength.
"I killed him. Do you want to stand up for them?" Lin Feng responded to Wuchen Ancestor’s words without the slightest hesitation. Then, with a meaningful look, he asked Wuchen Ancestor back, wanting to know his attitude towards this matter.
"Friend, you’ve misunderstood. How could I possibly stand up for them? That old guy had long been restless, wanting to break free from the control of the Oblivion Sect. To be honest, my original reason for coming out of retreat was to deal with this matter. Your efforts have perfectly solved our problem. Therefore, not only will the Oblivion Sect not stand up for the Divine Moon Dynasty, but we are extremely grateful to you for resolving this issue for us."
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Wuchen Ancestor hastily explained, hoping Lin Feng would not misunderstand, expressing gratitude for Lin Feng’s actions. Not to mention Lin Feng killed that old man, even if Lin Feng destroyed the entire Divine Moon Dynasty, he would have no objections.
"In that case, I’ll be leaving." Lin Feng heard Wuchen Ancestor’s words and nodded, getting up to leave. The matter had ended, and his goal was accomplished, so he planned to return to the secular world with the two women, as he had never felt entirely assured about that realm.
The two women also stood up at this moment, respectfully saluting Wuchen Ancestor before preparing to leave with Lin Feng. However, before the three could take a step, they heard Wuchen Ancestor’s urgent voice.
"Friend, if possible, I would like to invite you to stay here for a few days, if that’s alright?" Seeing Lin Feng about to leave, Wuchen Ancestor immediately spoke up.
"Hm?" Lin Feng was unexpectedly stopped by Wuchen Ancestor, looking at him in surprise. It was late, so why was Wuchen Ancestor stopping him and asking him to stay for a few days for no apparent reason?
"Friend, please don’t misunderstand. As you know, it’s extremely difficult at our level to find someone to communicate with, so I hope you might stay for a few days to exchange cultivation experiences. I really hope you can grant this old man’s request."
Seeing Lin Feng’s puzzled expression, Wuchen Ancestor truly panicked and hurriedly explained. At his level, finding someone to communicate with was exceptionally rare, and having finally met Lin Feng, he couldn’t simply let Lin Feng leave. Hence, he asked Lin Feng to stay, genuinely wanting to share cultivation insights.
"I understand now. Alright." After hearing Wuchen Ancestor’s explanation, Lin Feng understood his intention and, after considering for a brief moment, agreed.
Xia Lalan had just made a breakthrough not long ago, so stabilizing her realm for a few days before returning was reasonable. Moyan also needed to recover her divine soul as quickly as possible, and with Wuchen Ancestor’s reminder, Lin Feng wanted to discuss cultivation matters with Wuchen Ancestor. After all, Wuchen Ancestor had lived for hundreds of years, and there were certainly experiences worth absorbing.
"That’s wonderful, thank you for agreeing, Friend. I’ll arrange for people to escort your two companions to rest, and later, we can talk in detail here." When Wuchen Ancestor heard Lin Feng agree, he was overjoyed and promptly arranged for the two women to be escorted to rest. He had already noticed the unusual relationship between the two women and Lin Feng and assumed they were probably Lin Feng’s partners. However, their cultivation levels were too low, so even if they were present, they wouldn’t understand the discussion.
Lin Feng did not oppose Wuchen Ancestor’s arrangement, merely nodding and using his divine sense to inform the two women to rest assuredly and not bother with him. The two women did not oppose Lin Feng’s arrangement either, though both were increasingly bewildered, unable to comprehend why Wuchen Ancestor was so courteous to Lin Feng, to the point of ingratiation. It was quite baffling.
Shortly, a man walked in the door, it was Sun Feng, the Sect Master of the Oblivion Sect. Wuchen Ancestor immediately commanded Sun Feng, "Escort these two women to rest, do not neglect them, and absolutely forbid any disturbances. No slip-ups allowed."
"Sure, Ancestor’s command." Sun Feng responded instantly to the Ancestor’s orders. However, he was confused about why the Ancestor was arranging for the two women to rest. Yet, since the Ancestor had given the order, even if he had ten thousand guts, he wouldn’t dare disobey. After answering, he promptly escorted the two women out of the room to avoid disturbing the Ancestor and Lin Feng’s discussion.
Once the three left the room, Wuchen Ancestor breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lin Feng, "Thanks for showing mercy earlier, Friend."
Wuchen Ancestor had not been able to mention this with people around him. Being an Ancestor of the Sect himself, mentioning such words publicly would affect his dignity. Recalling the time when Lin Feng was on his way to the Sect, cold sweat trickled down his back. He hadn’t anticipated Lin Feng’s divine sense to be of such dreadfully strong magnitude that even he, as a Half-Step Earth Immortal, couldn’t last a single round. If not for Lin Feng’s restraint, his divine sense would have suffered heavy damage.
One more reason why Ancestor was deferential to Lin Feng was that he had just engaged in divine sense exchange with Lin Feng. Through a specialized teleportation formation, he contacted the Nine Nether Sect, and the message from Nine Nether Sect was to avoid provoking Lin Feng. That alone was enough to explain the situation, which is why he maintained such a low profile upon seeing Lin Feng.
In fact, when he saw Lin Feng, Ancestor was secretly amazed, too. Lin Feng looked astonishingly young, appearing no older than twenty, yet to reach a level that even the Nine Nether Sect hesitated over him at such an age was remarkable. Whether Lin Feng was a mere mortal or had exceptional secret techniques to conceal his cultivation, Ancestor concluded that Lin Feng must be stronger than him. Other possibilities simply didn’t exist.
"It’s nothing, don’t take it to heart," Lin Feng smiled lightly, speaking easily and relaxedly, as if it were just a small matter not worth mentioning.
"Friend, could you tell this old man who your master is?"
"I don’t know his name."
"I truly envy you for having such a senior pointing the way. I’ve lived for hundreds of years to achieve my cultivation, yet compared to you, it’s like heaven and earth."
"It’s not as exaggerated as you say. By the way, didn’t you mention you had something regarding cultivation to discuss with me?"
"Indeed, having stepped into the Half-Step Earth Immortal Realm, I feel at a loss. I’ve been blocked by the bottleneck before entering the Earth Immortal Realm with no means of breakthrough."
"...This matter really relies on you alone. When you approach the bottleneck, what exactly do you feel?
"Well, it’s like this..."
...
Then the two casually started chatting. Time unknowingly passed, and several hours flew by—not long, not short. Lin Feng answered all of Wuchen Ancestor’s queries concerning cultivation, which brought immense joy to Wuchen Ancestor. Lin Feng also garnered much information from the conversation, with both highly satisfied from the discussion.
After concluding their conversation, Lin Feng returned to the room where the two women were resting.
"Lin Feng, could you explain why that Ancestor was so respectful to you?" Xia Lalan couldn’t bear her curiosity any longer and asked Lin Feng earnestly, wanting to know the whole story.
"Master, Moyan would like to know, too." Moyan spoke at this moment, after having discussed with Xia Lalan for a long time, unable to decipher what was going on.
Upon hearing the two women’s inquiries, Lin Feng chuckled. He knew what they were thinking and didn’t want them randomly guessing, so he explained, "I beat him. It’s as simple as that."
As Lin Feng spoke earnestly, it was indeed the truth. Yet, the two women couldn’t believe it. Lin Feng had been with them all along and had never crossed paths with that Ancestor. Furthermore, the Ancestor had just emerged from retreat; how could they have crossed paths? If they had fought, the women would surely be aware. Thus, they both looked at Lin Feng, suspecting he was joking with them.
"I really mean it. Remember when I paused on the way here? It was then that we fought." Noticing their skeptical expressions, Lin Feng explained once more. If they still didn’t believe him, he wouldn’t have much choice.
Upon Lin Feng’s explanation, the two women suddenly recalled Lin Feng had indeed stopped briefly on the way. However, during that moment, could Lin Feng and that Ancestor have truly fought? How could it be possible? They hadn’t even seen that Ancestor.
Oh, Divine Sense!
The two women simultaneously realized the sole possibility, exchanged a glance, and understood from each other’s eyes, immediately feeling shocked inside. They never anticipated Lin Feng and Wuchen Ancestor’s confrontation to occur in such manner. Momentarily, they were both stupefied...
Xia Lalan’s expression was immensely intriguing; she knew Lin Feng was formidable and that his divine sense vastly exceeded ordinary expectations. He could control children’s actions remotely from miles away. Yet, even with that understanding, she hadn’t foreseen that divine sense could engage in combat—that was something she’d never heard of before. She wondered inwardly what divine sense combat was about?
