Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Enemy Attack

In the following days, Feng Wuchen and his companions went treasure hunting everywhere, gathering countless treasures.

The trip to the Heavenly Tomb yielded abundant rewards.

Just the essence blood of Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouses was enough to excite them, not to mention the numerous natural treasures.

When the seven days of treasure hunting ended, Bai Hun waited at the entrance to escort Feng Wuchen and the others out.

Artificer Guild main hall.

“The trip to the Heavenly Tomb must have yielded plenty for Master Feng. Did you encounter any danger?” Bai Hun asked respectfully with a smile.

“Indeed, the Heavenly Tomb was full of treasures. Other than an encounter with an ancient ferocious beast of late Heavenly Monarch stage, there wasn’t much danger. We didn’t venture deeper, to avoid disturbing the Heavenly Deity Realm beasts.” Feng Wuchen replied with a faint smile.

“President, Master Feng’s strength is truly formidable. He managed to slay a late-stage Heavenly Monarch beast despite being in the early Heavenly Monarch stage!” Shi Potian said excitedly, recalling the thrilling encounter that still made him tremble.

“Exactly! Even after being struck by the ancient beast, he was unscathed!” Liu Tianyu added, complementing the statement.

Hearing this, Yang Qianxiao chuckled and remarked, “Master Feng is the elite assassin of Tianying Pavilion; his strength is naturally impressive.”

“It’s good you all returned safely,” Bai Hun nodded in agreement.

None of Shi Potian and the others dared to mention the discovery of the Heavenly Emperor’s cave dwelling, as Feng Wuchen had explicitly instructed them not to reveal anything.

“President, I have other pressing matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now,” Feng Wuchen stood up and bid farewell after some casual conversation.

“Is it regarding Tianming? Safe travels, Master Feng.” Bai Hun said respectfully, personally escorting Feng Wuchen out of the hall.

“Safe travels, Master Feng.” Yang Qianxiao and others respectfully echoed.

After Feng Wuchen had departed, Bai Hun issued an order, “Mang Hun, protect Master Feng in the shadows and ensure his safe return to Tianying Pavilion.”

“Yes!” Mang Hun’s respectful voice resonated from within the palace.

Mang Hun, a Heavenly Deity Realm powerhouse of the Artificer Guild, was incredibly powerful and more than capable of protecting Feng Wuchen in secret.

After leaving the Artificer Guild, Feng Wuchen rushed back to Tianying Pavilion in Spirit Capital.

At this time, Tianming was waiting anxiously in Tianying Pavilion, pacing back and forth as he awaited Feng Wuchen’s return.

“Lord Tianming, what’s the matter? Why are you so anxious? Has something happened?” Qing Liu asked curiously, for he had never seen Tianming so unsettled before.

“Nothing, I’m just waiting for Wind Shadow,” Tianming replied absent-mindedly.

“Waiting for Wind Shadow?” Qing Liu was taken aback. Hadn’t he recently gone to the Artificer Guild to find Feng Wuchen?

“Why hasn’t he returned yet?” Tianming said impatiently, pacing back and forth, completely ignoring Qing Liu.

“Don’t be so anxious. Wind Shadow is on his way back,” Ying Hun said as he slowly emerged from the main hall.

“Greetings, Pavilion Master.” Qing Liu and Tianming quickly saluted respectfully.

Ying Hun replied indifferently, “Whether Wind Shadow can resurrect Ling’er, even I cannot say for sure. Don’t get your hopes up too high.”

“I understand, but regardless, I must try,” Tianming responded respectfully.

“What? Resurrection of Ling’er?” Qing Liu’s expression changed drastically, his body instantly stiffened, and he thought to himself, “Wind Shadow has such divine abilities?”

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Qing Liu asked, “Pavilion Master, does Wind Shadow truly possess the divine skill to bring the dead back to life?”

“I’m not sure either. But he mentioned there’s hope, so it should be possible. Otherwise, Wind Shadow wouldn’t make such claims casually,” Ying Hun replied with a slight shake of his head.

“How can this be…” Qing Liu was once again shaken, unable to fathom what he had heard.

…

“Whizz!”

Feng Wuchen’s speed was astonishing, and he had already arrived at the border between Tiandu and Spirit Capital.

“Ling’er’s soul is powerful, and her body is still in the ice coffin. With both her flesh and soul intact, using the Evil Dragon God’s secret technique along with soul power should allow her soul body to re-coalesce,” Feng Wuchen muttered to himself while swiftly flying.

“Master can refine a potent Soul Condensing Pill,” Dragon God Sword’s spirit transmitted its voice.

“Ling’er is only four years old; her body wouldn’t be able to endure any elixir’s power. Even spiritual liquid must be extremely gentle. Soul Condensing Pill won’t work. Ling’er’s body has been ice-sealed for decades and is very fragile. Extremely mild fire attributes are needed to dispel the cold; any mistake could damage her body,” Feng Wuchen shook his head, his expression grave.

“A mere four-year-old child’s physique is too weak to dispel the chill. After decades of ice-sealing, her body has long deteriorated,” the voice of Year Wheel Ruler was heard.

“The body is a minor issue; the key is the soul body. As long as her soul body can be re-coalesced, her physical body is not a worry,” Feng Wuchen frowned in thought.

“Whizz!”

“Buzz buzz!”

At that moment, just as Feng Wuchen stepped into the Earth Rank region of Spirit Capital, a terrifying purple electric flash suddenly burst from a mountain peak below, swift as lightning and leaving behind ripples of torn, trembling void.

“Mid-stage Heavenly Monarch!” Feng Wuchen frowned slightly and dodged the electric flash immediately.

His cold gaze scanned the source of the attack, where a middle-aged man slowly soared from the mountaintop, releasing an aura of intense killing intent.

An ill-intentioned arrival!

“A decent strength,” Feng Wuchen remarked while observing the man.

“You must be Wind Shadow,” the middle-aged man asked coldly, his icy eyes scrutinizing Feng Wuchen.

“You’ve already guessed, haven’t you?” Feng Wuchen replied fearlessly with a faint smile. “Let me guess: Among my enemies in Spirit Capital, aside from Spirit Emperor Temple, only Glazed Light Sect and Moon God Palace want me dead. The Glazed Light Sect has already been bloodbathed by me, and Spirit Emperor Temple wouldn’t send a mid-stage Heavenly Monarch for such a task. You must be from Moon God Palace.”

“You’re right,” the middle-aged man answered indifferently.

“Did Chi Qingshan send you to kill me?” Feng Wuchen inquired.

“Does it make a difference?” the man replied coldly.

Feng Wuchen’s expression turned icy, “It certainly does. If Chi Qingshan sent you, I’ll pin this debt on him and take his life when I slaughter Moon God Palace. If he didn’t, I will annihilate Moon God Palace.”

“Arrogant words! Surrender your life!” the man snapped coldly, his eyes narrowing and radiating fierce killing intent.

“Boom!”

As soon as he spoke, the man stomped on the void, producing an ear-splitting explosion. His figure flashed like lightning, charging at Feng Wuchen fiercely, his overwhelming energy formidable.

“Buzz buzz!”

An immensely powerful force erupted from the man’s body, his aura rapidly swelling to the late stage of Heavenly Monarch Realm.

“Oh? Not bad; you managed to amplify your power this much. No wonder you dare attempt to kill me,” Feng Wuchen stated with a hint of surprise, though it was fleeting.

“Buzz buzz!”

At the same time, Feng Wuchen activated the Divine Power of Heavenly Dao and the strength of the Supreme Physique Third Stage. Golden light burst forth as his imposing aura surged, and he subsequently summoned the Kylin Battle Armor and Dragon God Fist gauntlets.

In an instant, Feng Wuchen’s aura rose to the late stage of Heavenly Monarch Realm.

“Late-stage Heavenly Monarch!” Shock flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man.

“Chi Qingshan sent you knowing full well you were here to die!” Feng Wuchen said coldly as his arresting killing intent exploded. Feng Wuchen darted forward with a terrifying charge.
