Chapter 1284: Chapter 1284: Discussing Strategies

The Great Elder and others departed, marking the end of the battle.

After an intense blood battle, they ultimately managed to secure the Sky Martial Sect.

The reason the Great Elder did not intervene is that intervention was utterly meaningless.

Firstly, the Great Elder had no confidence in killing Feng Wuchen at the hands of Long Nitian, and secondly, it would be a waste of time.

Thus, retreating was the best choice.

Of course, it wasn’t that the Great Elder feared Long Nitian; if he feared, he wouldn’t have come.

Facing Long Nitian, the Great Elder was quite confident in his own strength, just that he felt it was unnecessary.

“Young Master, the Tianzun Divine Palace has its eyes on you. I have a very important task to complete. During this time, Young Master, be extremely careful,” Long Nitian transmitted his thoughts respectfully to Feng Wuchen.

“Rest assured, I will be careful,” Feng Wuchen transmitted back.

Long Nitian’s figure vanished silently.

“Master, are you alright?” With the battle over, the disciples of the Sky Martial Sect flew back immediately. Tianlan was the first to ask concernedly about Feng Wuchen.

Feng Wuchen shook his head and smiled, saying, “I’m fine.”

“Sir Feng, Chairman Gu, if it weren’t for your assistance, the Sky Martial Sect might already have been…” Lin Jiuxuan expressed immense gratitude.

“I came under the commission of Sir Feng, Chairman Lin, no need for thanks,” Gu Tongtian replied politely, glancing at Feng Wuchen.

“Sect Master Lin, this matter is entirely my responsibility. If I hadn’t ordered Tianlan to investigate in secret, Chi Qingshan wouldn’t have discovered, and all that followed wouldn’t have happened,” Feng Wuchen said.

“Now that everyone is fine, that’s good,” Gu Tongtian smiled lightly.

“Brother Tianming, please take Zhufeng back for treatment first; his injuries are too severe,” Feng Wuchen looked at Tianming and said.

Tianming nodded, smiling, “Thanks to your elixir, otherwise Zhufeng might have been doomed, his luck is truly tough.”

With Zhufeng’s injuries stabilized, Tianming was thoroughly relieved.

“Thank you, Wind Shadow,” Zhufeng struggled to say, having regained some consciousness.

Feng Wuchen smiled, “It’s me who should thank you.”

“Wind Shadow, come back to the Tianying Pavilion after you finish, be very careful. I’ll take Zhufeng back for treatment first,” Tianming admonished, then flew away with Zhufeng.

“Chairman Gu, two elders, thank you for your righteous assistance, even though you have been gravely injured, and more importantly, implicated the Chamber of Commerce; I am sincerely grateful,” Feng Wuchen thanked Gu Tongtian and the others with cupped hands, expressing great courtesy.

This battle indeed implicated the Chamber of Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce has been regarded as a rebel and became a target for the Divine Clan’s annihilation.

Gu Tongtian waved his hand, respectfully and politely smiling, “Sir Feng, your words are too heavy. The Divine Clan’s administration is corrupt, and their people are unreasonably oppressive. We have endured this for many years; now that Sir Feng has stepped forward, we naturally have no reason to decline support.”

“The Chairman is right. Even if facing death, we should die with dignity. Living in a degrading state truly wastes our cultivation,” the Grand Elder agreed.

Feng Wuchen nodded and said, “Chairman Gu, two elders, your injuries are severe; it’s important to go back and heal first.”

“No matter, as long as we’re not dead, injuries will eventually heal. No need to worry,” Gu Tongtian was carefree.

“After this battle, Chi Qingshan likely won’t cause trouble again. Sect Master Lin can rest assured. I have other matters, so I’ll first go back to the Tianying Pavilion. Farewell,” Feng Wuchen cupped his hands.

“Take care, Sir Feng,” Lin Jiuxuan and others said respectfully.

“Take care, Master,” Tianlan said reluctantly.

“Cultivate diligently, and don’t be lazy,” Feng Wuchen advised Tianlan.

“Understood,” Tianlan nodded reluctantly.

This battle failed to wipe out the Sky Martial Sect. Chi Qingshan knew that the news about Donghuang Yue could no longer be kept secret.

Chi Qingshan had done his best, and even Emperor Ling had personally intervened, but ultimately, they failed.

…

Returning to the Tianying Pavilion, Feng Wuchen entered the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower to cultivate.

However, Feng Wuchen’s aim was not to enhance his cultivation but to elevate the realm of the Inscription Master.

Because, a month later, the Inscription Master contest hosted by the Immortal Divine Domain was about to commence, and Feng Wuchen had already promised Su Xuan to participate in the contest.

The time was quite ample, as the Seventh Layer had five times the time flow, enough for Feng Wuchen to elevate his realm.

“The time is sufficient for me to break through to the Celestial Immortal Grade realm. With so many talented Inscription Masters in the Heavenly Realm, it’s hard to compete without an Innate Grade realm, especially since the Immortal Divine Domain is the territory of the Immortal Heavenly Emperor; I need to be extra cautious,” Feng Wuchen mumbled to himself while cultivating.

Feng Wuchen planned to spend three months elevating his Inscription Master realm and the remaining two on cultivation, thus breaking through both the Innate Grade realm and the late phase of the Heavenly Monarch.

“With so many heavenly treasures aiding me, breaking through to the late phase of the Heavenly Monarch is definitely achievable,” Feng Wuchen murmured to himself.

Discarding all distracting thoughts, Feng Wuchen entered the cultivation state.

…

Tianzun Divine Palace.

After returning, the Great Elder immediately summoned the other seven Heavenly Emperors, even calling Mr. Guigu along.

“Great Elder, for you to summon us urgently, what important matter could it be?” The Immortal Heavenly Emperor asked respectfully, all noticing the heavily injured Emperor Ling nearby, feeling puzzled.

Expressionless, the Great Elder said, “Today, I encountered Long Nitian; Emperor Ling was hurt by him. If I hadn’t intervened, Emperor Ling would be dead!”

“What? Long Nitian?” All faces of the Immortal Heavenly Emperor and others changed drastically, their eyes showing strong fear.

The Great Elder said, “The Dragon God Clan sent Long Nitian to secretly protect Wind Shadow, indicating that Wind Shadow’s status is not low. Moreover, this person possesses the divine power of the Heavenly Dao. Combined with Mr. Guigu’s previous statement about Wind Shadow having the aura of the Dragon God’s young master from years ago, I speculate that Wind Shadow is likely the newly cultivated young master of the Dragon God Clan.”

“Young master of the Dragon God Clan?” Mr. Guigu and the Immortal Heavenly Emperor’s faces changed again, feeling extremely shocked.

“Wind Shadow must be eliminated as soon as possible; I’ve called you here to hear your strategies,” the Great Elder said, looking at Mr. Guigu and the others.

“Great Elder, with Long Nitian secretly protecting Wind Shadow, I’m afraid we can’t touch Wind Shadow,” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor said with a helpless, bitter smile, dreadfully wary of Long Nitian.

“Great Elder, I do have a plan,” Mr. Guigu spoke up.

“Mr. Guigu, feel free to speak,” the Great Elder looked at Mr. Guigu.

Mr. Guigu said, “A month later, the Immortal Divine Domain will hold an Inscription Master contest, for which talented Inscription Masters from all regions will participate. You may not know that besides being an Artifact Refiner and Alchemist, Wind Shadow is also an Inscription Master. I saw Wind Shadow’s name on the participant list representing the Tianshi Immortal Mansion, presenting us with the best opportunity.”
