Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Supreme Dragon God Sword
âStill holding back? How is that possible?â Duan Wuqingâs face suddenly changed dramatically, his heart shocked to the extreme. This made him even more incredulous. Was Feng Wuchen really holding back when facing Gu Qingxuan?
Duan Wuqing simply couldnât imagine it and thought in horror, âItâs true that Feng Wuchen has exceptional talents, and his strength is terrifying, but to say that he was holding back in the battle against Gu Qingxuan, how could that be possible? Was he not concerned for his own life?â
The words of Duan Tian Hun left Duan Wuqing both shocked and in disbelief, and he stood there dumbfounded.
After Duan Tian Hun had left in a flash, Duan Wuqing still hadnât snapped back to reality.
Elsewhere, the two elders, Yang Tianxian and Situ Zhentian, brought Feng Wuchen to a magnificent palace. The palace was unmatched in splendor, and what was most important was that the plaque above the entrance bore a few large charactersâGrand Commanderâs Mansion!
The four characters Grand Commanderâs Mansion were written in a style as if dragons were soaring and phoenixes were dancing, with iron strokes and silver hooks.
Casually glancing at the plaque, Feng Wuchen exclaimed in surprise, âThe Commanderâs Mansion? This is my palace?â
âMaster has said it right, this palace was specially prepared for you by the emperor,â Situ Zhentian said with a smile.
Feng Wuchen nodded in approval and said, âThe palace is indeed magnificent; the emperor is thoughtful. I always feel a bit unworthy of the emperorâs generosity.â
Hearing Feng Wuchenâs words, the two elders were slightly startled. Yang Tianxian couldnât help asking, âMaster, what do you mean by that? In what way are you unworthy of the emperor?â
Looking at the imposing palace, Feng Wuchen sighed lightly and said, âSuch a grand palace is a waste on me; when will I have the time to live here?â
âWhere does Master plan to go?â asked Situ Zhentian.
âSooner or later, I plan to make my way through the Mainland. How could I stay in the Empire?â Feng Wuchen shook his head.
âThe Mainland?â The two eldersâ faces were immediately filled with shock.
Feng Wuchen nodded, but did not elaborate.
Traveling through the Mainland was something that had to be done sooner or later, and Feng Wuchen had planned for it for a long time, only the time had not yet come.
Even though Feng Wuchen had now become the Grand Commander, second only to one and above ten thousand, and had even won first place in the Genius Battle Rankings, he ultimately did not feel at ease about the Feng family.
Because, at present, the Feng family was too weak.
Moreover, the Sky Pavilion had not been developed. If he were to leave just like that, he feared that the Sky Pavilion, lacking Feng Wuchenâs presence, would not be able to grow stronger.
Without his personal oversight, Feng Wuchen truly did not feel at ease to leave the Empire just yet.
âLetâs go inside and take a look.â Feng Wuchen was the first to enter the palace, with the two elders quickly following behind him.
âMaster, the palace on the left is where you can cultivate, and the one on the right is for Alchemy and Artifact Refining.â Upon entering the palace, Yang Tianxian explained that it had been built according to the preferences of the two elders.
Feng Wuchen nodded repeatedly, more and more satisfied as he looked around, then proceeded toward the Alchemy room, already smelling the scent of medicinal herbs.
The Alchemy room was over a hundred square meters in size, very large, and neatly furnished with various medicinal herbs and Artifact Refining materials.
âState Preceptor, Your Highness, I will first help you purge the fire toxin from your bodies,â said Feng Wuchen as he glanced at the Alchemy room, then spoke up.
âThank you, Master,â both elders said respectfully, feeling incredibly excited.
As Feng Wuchenâs cultivation grew stronger, his methods became more formidable. While purging the fire toxin from both elders at the same time, his amazing technique quickly drew out the fire toxin from their bodies.
Feng Wuchen activated a cyan flame, and as the fire toxin spread, it was devoured by the cyan flame in a dominant manner.
âSuch a terrifying flame!â The eldersâ faces were filled with horror, and they broke out in a cold sweat.
Within less than a minute, the fire toxin inside the eldersâ bodies had been completely removed, and they felt incredibly comfortable, as if they had become dozens of years younger.
The powerful and miraculous technique once again left the elders deeply shaken.
âIn the future, when performing Artifact Refining and Alchemy, pay more attention. That way, fire toxin will not accumulate too quickly, and youâll also be able to purge it in time on your own,â Feng Wuchen instructed.
âThank you, Master!â The elders bowed with clasped fists respectfully.
Feng Wuchen spoke indifferently, âSince you are willing to accept me as your master, I as your teacher cannot disappoint you too much.â
With that said, he flipped his palm, and two scrolls appeared in his palm, which he then handed to the elders.
âMaster, what are these?â the elders asked, puzzled as they looked at Feng Wuchen.
Feng Wuchen replied, âThese are Alchemy Decision and Artifact Refining Technique scrolls, both of Earth Rank. They can help you improve your realms. How much you can improve will depend on your own fates.â
âEarth Rank technique scrolls?â Upon hearing this, the eldersâ eyes instantly widened to the utmost, and their bodies stiffened on the spot!
Had they heard wrong? Feng Wuchen actually said they were Earth Rank technique scrolls!
How formidable are Earth Rank technique scrolls?
Earth Rank techniques for cultivating True Yuan are treasures beyond price, unobtainable for purchase and extremely rare, something you come upon by chance rather than by search.
The four great Empires donât even possess a single Earth Rank technique scrollâthe highest they have are Profound Grade high-grade technique scrollsâshowing just how rare and precious Earth Rank technique scrolls and martial arts are.
Alchemists and Artifact Refiners are rare enough as it is, not to mention Earth Rank Alchemy Decisions and Refining Techniques; even Profound Grade scrolls are extremely rare and precious.
It was precisely because of this that Yang Tianxian and Situ Zhentian were so shocked, shocked to the point of doubting their own hearing.
Watching the two elders in utter shock, Feng Wuchen couldnât help but smile faintly, guessing that this would scare them.
âMaster, is it really an Earth Rank technique?â Situ Zhentian asked in astonishment after regaining his senses, his gaze fixed unblinkingly on Feng Wuchen.
âOf course, youâll know once you open it and take a look,â Feng Wuchen said with a light chuckle.
âItâs⊠itâs really an Earth Rank technique!â Yang Tianxian suddenly exclaimed, so overwhelmed that he found it difficult to breathe and his body trembled.
Situ Zhentian, who was beside him, unfurled the scroll, and his body instantly stiffened, his eyes wide and his mouth agape in sheer shock.
The Earth Rank technique had completely stunned the two elders.
âGo back and cultivate well. It wonât be a problem for you to break through to Sixth Grade Alchemist and Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner in the future, and when thereâs time, I will give you some guidance,â Feng Wuchen said indifferently.
âThank you, Master!â The two elders thanked him repeatedly, filling with excitement.
Once the two elders left, Feng Wuchen began to prepare for battle.
The eldest prince of the Shuiyue Empire held the cultivation of the Eight Layers of the Yuan Dan Realm, and with his reputation as the first genius of the Shuiyue Empire, his fighting strength was estimated to be comparable to the Ninth Level of the Yuan Dan Realm.
This battle was related to the Empireâs reputation, and Feng Wuchen could not afford to be careless.
The eldest prince of the Shuiyue Empire was undoubtedly the most powerful opponent Feng Wuchen had faced, and he had to make full preparations.
âI only have three days. Itâs impossible to improve my strength through cultivation, but given a month, with my current talent and the Dragon Clan bloodline, I could definitely smoothly step into the Sixth Layer of the Yuandan Realm,â Feng Wuchen mused to himself, confident in his cultivation speed.
But unfortunately, there were only three days left, and no matter how terrifying the talent, it would be difficult to enhance oneâs strength.
With a flick of his wrist, the Fiery Blade was summoned, and a meteorite flew out from the Storage Ring.
âIf I upgrade the Fiery Blade to a Spiritual Artifact, my combat power will be even stronger,â Feng Wuchen stated, as this was the only way he could increase his fighting strength in a short period of time.
Feng Wuchen gathered the other auxiliary materials and a cyan flame surged to life, wrapping around the Fiery Blade, the meteorite, and other auxiliary materials such as Spirit Stones, and placed them within it.
Materials like the Fiery Blade and meteorite melted rapidly, and under Feng Wuchenâs control, they all merged together.
In Feng Wuchenâs palm, the molten iron orb rolled about, emanating a potent aura.
Looking at the orb-shaped molten iron in his palm, Feng Wuchen said, âThe Kylin battle armor carries the aura of the Qilin Clan because of the bloodline. If I infuse it with Dragon Clan blood, its power will surely increase significantly.â
Feng Wuchenâs lips curved into a smile, and he immediately bit his fingertip and dripped Dragon Clan blood into the molten iron until it turned completely blood-red!
The molten iron, with the Dragon Clan blood infused, radiated an even more formidable and intimidating aura, full of oppressiveness.
âGood, the violent Dragon Clan aura. It will become even more terrifying once it is refined into a Spiritual Artifact!â Feng Wuchen said with delight, the thought alone exciting him.
Feng Wuchenâs hands performed intricate gestures, and the orb-shaped blood-red molten iron began to change shape, stretching out to both sides, taking on the rough shape of a longsword.
Moments later, a brand new longsword appeared in front of Feng Wuchen. Completely different from the Fiery Blade, an intense and violent aura spread from the sword.
This violent aura also carried the noble air of the Dragon Clan!
âA Mid-Grade Spiritual Artifact! Not bad, itâs just a pity that the meteorite wasnât older, or else upgrading it to a High-Grade Spiritual Artifact wouldnât be impossible,â Feng Wuchen said with satisfaction, excitedly eyeing the new longsword.
The sword that Feng Wuchen refined was blood-red throughout, sharp and exquisite, undoubtedly capable of cutting through iron as if it were mud, with flickers of blood energy dancing eerily along the swordâs surface.
The mere appearance of the longsword imparted a sense of intimidation.
The blood-red color throughout made it seem as though it was filled with a thirst for blood.
Feng Wuchen looked over the new longsword, growing fonder of it the more he looked; this sword had entirely replaced the Fiery Blade.
âSince itâs been infused with the blood of the Dragon Clan, Iâll call you the Supreme Dragon God Sword. In the future, if I can find the materials, I will surely upgrade you to an Immortal Artifact!â Feng Wuchen said with a joyful laugh and then performed a blood bond with the sword.
Clasping the Supreme Dragon God Sword tightly, Feng Wuchen could feel the extra weight from the meteorite, which made the sword feel great in his hand, and he couldnât help but start moving with it.
His swordplay was elegant; the sword moved as if one with his heart, and each move was intricate and masterful, like a captivating dance that was utterly mesmerizing.
âEven though the Supreme Dragon God Sword is now refined, with my current strength and Bloodline Power, I can at most contend against the Eightfold of the Yuandan Realm. Itâs impossible for me to defeat the eldest prince of the Shuiyue Empire. Even if I were to perform the third stance of the Phantom Sword Technique, I would likely stand no chance,â Feng Wuchen muttered to himself, shaking his head.
Feng Wuchen dared not underestimate the eldest prince of the Shuiyue Empire, who was renowned as the strongest prince and was naturally formidable for a reason.
However, the next second, Feng Wuchenâs eyes suddenly brightened, and he said excitedly, âThatâs right! Thereâs still the tower!â
The delicate tower suddenly appeared in Feng Wuchenâs hand with a flip, a mysterious tower obtained in the Divine Valley!
Since obtaining the tower, Feng Wuchen had yet to closely examine it.
âSince the tower possesses the ability to suppress with its Divine Skills, its power must be strong. With it, Iâll have a chance to defeat the eldest prince of the Shuiyue Empire!â Feng Wuchen said with a thrilled smile, his eyes full of confidence.
However, what Feng Wuchen didnât know was that outside the Grand Commanderâs mansion, the highest echelons of the Empireâs royal family had already assembled, each face showing shock and fear.
At the moment the Supreme Dragon God Sword was revealed, its violent and fearsome noble aura had alarmed the royal high officials, and even the Emperor had appeared in person.
