The next day, at the Dragon God Palaceās main hall.
Feng Wuchen and Ling Xiaoxiao arrived at the main hall early in the morning, followed by Liu Qingyang and the others.
"Brother Feng, why did you call us here so early? Is there something urgent?" Liu Qingyang asked, puzzled.
Feng Wuchen smiled lightly, "Thereās nothing major. Although Iāve returned this time, I have limited time. I might have to return to the Heavenly Realm tomorrow. So while I have time, I want to take Xiaoxiao out for a walk and perhaps visit the Empire."
"What? Youāre returning to the Heavenly Realm tomorrow? So soon?" Zhang Junlanās expression changed, saying hurriedly, "Teacher, canāt you stay a few more days?"
Feng Wuchen shook his head gently, "I still have other important matters and canāt be delayed for too long. The Dragon Clan Leader, along with Wild Panther and Flame Dragon, are already ready for ascension to the Heavenly Realm, so I need to prepare."
Ling Xiaoxiao added, "Weāll soon ascend to the Heavenly Realm and meet Brother Feng again soon. We donāt need to worry; we shouldnāt delay Brother Feng either."
"In that case, we should accompany Brother Feng for a walk. Once Brother Feng leaves this time, the next time we meet, weāll probably be ascending to the Heavenly Realm too, which might take at least half a year," Liu Qingyang quickly said.
"Then you all must strive to cultivate diligently. Xiao Xiao should be able to ascend in the next two months," Feng Wuchen smiled.
"Xiao Xiao is a descendant of the Divine Clan; we canāt compare," Yi Tianqing shrugged.
Bei Dou Yan sighed, "Xiao Xiaoās talent is so much stronger than ours; even if we try our hardest, we canāt surpass her."
"By the way, Brother Feng, have you established any forces in the Heavenly Realm?" Lin You asked.
Feng Wuchen shook his head, "No, Iāve only focused on cultivation and havenāt had time yet. Once you all ascend, weāll build the Dragon God Palace."
"Thatās great! There will be a Dragon God Palace on the mainland, and then in the Heavenly Realm too!" Liu Qingyang smiled excitedly.
The establishment of the Dragon God Palace is essential. Feng Wuchen canāt let Liu Qingyang and them all join Tianying Pavilion, right?
Tianying Pavilion is a force for cultivating assassins, and Liu Qingyang and the others arenāt suited for it. Besides, Feng Wuchen never considered letting them enter Tianying Pavilion.
After brief chats, Feng Wuchen and the group left the Dragon God Palace.
Taking advantage of the time, Feng Wuchen also planned to accompany Ling Xiaoxiao to travel around the mainland.
This visit to the Heavenly Soul Mainland, seeing that Ling Xiaoxiao and the others are about to ascend to the Heavenly Realm, made Feng Wuchen relieved.
After a day of craziness, amidst the reluctance of everyone at the Dragon God Palace, Feng Wuchen left the mainland, returning to the Heavenly Realm.
"After returning, I must build the Dragon God Palace quickly. Iāll need Brother Tianmingās help for this, as heās more familiar with the Ling Realm," Feng Wuchen thought to himself; building the Dragon God Palace was inevitable.
In a vast white space, Feng Wuchen emerged from the Human Realmās gate, as if separating the Human Realm and the Heavenly Realm by this single door.
"Whish whish whish!"
As Feng Wuchen emerged from the Human Realmās gate, the elder guarding the Heavenly Realmās gate, along with over a dozen Heavenly Emperor experts, immediately appeared.
"Greetings to the Master!" The elder and eighteen Heavenly Emperor experts respectfully knelt on one knee to welcome.
The unexpected scene shocked Feng Wuchen greatly.
"Elder, what are you doing? Get up. Iām not your master," Feng Wuchen quickly said.
"Master, Dragon Venerable has informed us of your identity. You are the reincarnation of the Dragon God Minor Guardian, thus our master. It was the Dragon God Minor Guardian who saved us years ago. We were unaware of the masterās identity earlier and hope the master forgives us," the elder respectfully said.
"I see, you may stand," Feng Wuchen realized.
"Thank you, Master!" The elder and eighteen Heavenly Emperor experts respectfully said.
"Elder, there will soon be people from the Heavenly Soul Mainland ascending to the Heavenly Realm. I ask that you keep an eye out and notify me in advance, and Iāll come to greet them," Feng Wuchen said.
The elder respectfully replied, "Rest assured, Master."
"Thank you," Feng Wuchen said politely, ready to enter the Heavenly Realmās gate.
As Feng Wuchen was about to enter the Heavenly Realmās gate, he noticed the eighteen Heavenly Emperors following him.
"What are you doing?" Feng Wuchen asked.
"You are our master, and we must protect your safety," one Heavenly Emperor respectfully replied.
Upon hearing this, Feng Wuchen thought, "The Tianzun Divine Palace will certainly not let me go. When Xiao Xiao and the others ascend to the Heavenly Realm, there will undoubtedly be danger. Letting them follow can protect Xiao Xiao and the others. Then let them guard the Dragon God Palace."
Thinking of this, Feng Wuchen took out a summoning rune and handed it to the leading Heavenly Emperor, saying, "You stay here first. Once my friends ascend, Iāll assign you to guard the Dragon God Palace. I have important matters to handle, and having you follow isnāt convenient. Iāll summon you if needed."
"We will follow the masterās order!" The eighteen Heavenly Emperors respectfully said.
Suddenly acquiring eighteen Heavenly Emperor experts was unexpected for Feng Wuchen.
However, this was just when manpower was needed; having eighteen Heavenly Emperor experts to assist would certainly lighten Feng Wuchenās load.
...
Tianying Pavilion.
Upon returning to Tianying Pavilion, Feng Wuchen immediately went to the palace where Tianming was located.
"Big Brother Tianming," Feng Wuchen called out upon entering the hall.
"Wind Shadow?" Tianming, who was in the midst of his cultivation, heard Feng Wuchenās voice and immediately stepped out.
"Wind Shadow, youāre finally back. Are you alright? Did the experts guarding the Heavenly Realmās gate do anything to you?" Tianming asked anxiously.
Feng Wuchen shook his head, "Iām alright, Iāve just returned from the Human Realm."
After pausing, Feng Wuchen added, "Big Brother Tianming, youāre more familiar with the Ling Realm, and Iād like to build the Dragon God Palace. Where do you think is a good spot in the Ling Realm?"
"Build the Dragon God Palace?" Tianming was slightly surprised, looking at Feng Wuchen in astonishment, then said, "Wind Shadow, youāre currently the Dragon God Clanās minor guardian, and now also an assassin of Tianying Pavilion. Why build the Dragon God Palace?"
"My friends from the Human Realm will soon ascend to the Heavenly Realm, and I canāt let them all join Tianying Pavilion; theyāre not suited," Feng Wuchen said helplessly.
"I understand," Tianming nodded, after thinking it over carefully, said, "I do know a good spot."
"Where?" Feng Wuchenās heart thrilled.
"Mount Tianxu!" Tianming said, "Mount Tianxu is located at the center of the Ling Realm. Although not a major mountain range, itās surrounded by mountains, adjacent to water, rich in spiritual energy, with numerous small and larger forces distributed nearby, and not far from Tianying Pavilion. Itās an excellent location for building a palace."
"Alright, Iāll go to Mount Tianxu to check it out," Feng Wuchen eagerly said.
Mount Tianxu is located east of Tianying Pavilion, a towering mountain floating in the sky, magnificent and impressive, exactly as Tianming described, ideal for building a palace.
Feng Wuchen was already very satisfied before arriving at Mount Tianxu from afar and decided to build the Dragon God Palace there.
Feng Wuchen summoned numerous cultivators skilled in palace construction, providing them with a substantial amount of Heavenly Spirit Stones, directing them to build the Dragon God Palace according to his vision.
