Chapter 1138: Chapter 1138: I Lost

“The realm of a Heavenly Grade Inscription Master, crafting Heavenly Grade Talismans, would render their power even mightier, preparing a few extra never does any harm.”

In the deep mountains not far from Sun Moon Lake, Feng Wuchen sat alone, perched atop an imposing boulder, crafting talismans.

The domineering Soul Power spread out, and amid Feng Wuchen’s mesmerizing hand movements, one after another, powerful Heavenly Grade Talismans were crafted.

Among these talismans, aside from those with formidable offensive capabilities, Feng Wuchen also crafted various auxiliary talismans.

In the Heavenly Realm where powerhouses were abundant, Feng Wuchen not only provoked Emperor Ling but was also pursued by numerous forces of the Ling Realm like the Moon God Palace, making his situation extremely perilous.

Therefore, Feng Wuchen had to prepare himself for self-preservation.

Crafting Heavenly Grade Talismans would enable Feng Wuchen to successfully escape or withstand a confrontation against Heavenly Monarch-level powerhouses.

“The Heavenly Grade Talismans in the Heavenly Realm differ from those in the Human Realm in might, each talisman bears its distinctive power. With my current Soul Power, I should be able to craft Heavenly Grade Talismans.” Feng Wuchen mumbled to himself, quite confident in his Soul Power.

Above the skies, an elder flew by, his normally placid face suddenly changed slightly.

“What a tyrannical and vigorous Soul Power!” The elder was taken aback as he looked in the direction of the mountains and swiftly dove towards it.

Feng Wuchen, who was in the midst of crafting talismans, sensed an overwhelmingly strong aura rapidly approaching and frowned inwardly: “Heavenly Grade Inscription Master! A Heavenly Deity Realm powerhouse!”

While the realm of the Heavenly Grade Inscription Master alone was enough to shock Feng Wuchen, what was more astonishing was that the newcomer was also a Heavenly Deity Realm powerhouse.

Feng Wuchen just hoped it wasn’t an enemy; if it was a powerhouse from the Moon God Palace or from the Spirit Emperor Temple, then it was unlikely he would come out of this day unscathed.

“Swoosh!”

No sooner had Feng Wuchen spoken than a sound of something tearing through the air arrived, terrifyingly fast, arriving almost in the blink of an eye.

The visitor was a white-robed elder, with an aged face wearing a faint smile, his eyes interestingly sizing up Feng Wuchen.

Feng Wuchen did not recognize the elder before him but could tell that the elder was of the Heavenly Grade Inscription Master realm, with extremely powerful Soul Power.

“Incredible, the realm of a Heavenly Grade Inscription Master, yet the Soul Power has reached Heavenly Grade, it is truly unheard of,” the elder exclaimed in amazement, as if he had discovered a treasure.

“Oh? Also an Alchemist of Heavenly Grade! Both realms reaching Heavenly Grade!” Upon closer inspection, the elder’s face couldn’t help but show a look of astoundment.

“Senior is?” Feng Wuchen asked cautiously, scrutinizing the elder.

The elder did not reply but instead activated his Soul Power and ferociously struck out at Feng Wuchen, his fierce momentum appearing as though he intended to kill Feng Wuchen right then and there.

Feng Wuchen’s expression abruptly changed drastically, feeling an immense pressure. In a critical moment, Feng Wuchen summoned all his Soul Power to meet the attack head on.

“Boom!”

In the blink of an eye, their palms violently collided, creating a thunderous blast as their formidable Soul Power clashed fiercely.

The clash between the two wasn’t a contest of strength but a contest of Soul Power!

“This old fellow’s Soul Power is almost approaching Innate Grade!” At the moment of fierce collision, Feng Wuchen felt the surging Soul Power of the elder and was greatly shaken.

“Truly extraordinary, what kind of person is this kid? His Soul Power as a Heavenly Grade Inscription Master is incredibly tyrannical and vigorous, already exceeding the realm of Heavenly Grade.”

“This young one is also an Alchemist. So young, yet so accomplished in two fields, truly remarkable; he is a rare talent in the Heavenly Realm.”

The elder’s heart was also filled with shock.

“Such domineering and vigorous soul power; to think that an Innate Grade realm could compete with this old man’s Heavenly Grade realm, you’re quite something, lad.” The elder said with a light smile, as the surging soul power was continuously unleashed.

“You’re quite something too!” Feng Wuchen furrowed his brows deeply, frantically summoning his soul power to resist.

Feng Wuchen could tell that the elder was simply keen on competing in soul power and harbored no ill will, which greatly eased his worries.

“This old fellow’s soul power is not simple either, I’m almost at my limit!” Feng Wuchen thought to himself, but forced himself not to show it on his face.

While Feng Wuchen was only at an Innate Grade realm, the elder was close to the Innate Grade Realm, with their soul power differing by more than a single realm.

“Not only is this lad’s soul power domineering and vigorous, but he can also persist for so long! If it were any other Inscription Master of the Innate Grade, they would have already admitted defeat. My soul power is almost exhausted, yet he is still holding on.” The elder was shocked once again, even finding it somewhat unbelievable.

Like Feng Wuchen, the elder’s soul power was fierce and forceful. The consumption was immense, and both were on the verge of not being able to hold on, yet both endured stubbornly, as if determined to continue until victory.

As time passed, the expressions on the faces of the two who stubbornly refused to give in grew strained, yet they both clenched their teeth and persisted.

“Good lad, he still won’t admit defeat!” The elder felt an urgent panic in his heart.

You should know, the elder was of Heavenly Grade realm; would it not be utterly embarrassing to lose to a junior of the Innate Grade realm?

“This old guy’s willpower is really steadfast! His soul power is nearly exhausted yet he still won’t concede!” Feng Wuchen was also secretly anxious.

Neither of them spoke, they just stared each other down, as if they wanted to kill each other with their gazes.

Just as both their soul powers were about to be depleted, Feng Wuchen silently thought: “I can’t hold on any longer!”

“I lost!” Feng Wuchen voiced his reluctance.

But just as Feng Wuchen spoke, his pale face suddenly froze.

“I lost.” As soon as Feng Wuchen spoke, the elder also spoke out.

Both admitted defeat at the same time, and both were stunned, staring at each other in astonishment, creating a rather comical scene.

“Haha!” After a moment of surprise, the elder suddenly burst into laughter, praising: “At such a young age, to possess such domineering and profound soul power, truly puts this old man to shame. I’ve seen many talented Inscription Masters, yet compared to you, they fall far short.”

Hearing this, Feng Wuchen replied with a smile: “Thank you for the praise, senior. Your soul power is also unparalleled among Heavenly Grade Inscription Masters, I am impressed.”

“Young brother, what is your name?” The elder asked Feng Wuchen, clearly very interested in him.

“Feng Wuchen.” Feng Wuchen replied with a light smile.

“Feng Wuchen, like the wind without dust, a good name indeed.” The elder nodded with a smile.

“Whose Disciple are you?” asked the elder again, eager to know which powerful Inscription Master could have nurtured such an outstanding disciple.

“I belong to no sect or faction.” Feng Wuchen responded.

“What? No sect or faction?” The elder was taken aback upon hearing this, and couldn’t believe it: “How is that possible? You are self-taught?”

“I happened upon some fortunate encounters, which led to my current realm.” Feng Wuchen made up a lie on the spot.

“A prodigy! A peerless prodigy indeed!” The elder suddenly exclaimed in admiration.
