Words : 1507 Updated : Sep 27th, 2025

"The old fellow from Dayan Holy Land sure arrived quickly." Chu Feng said with a beaming smile, not bothered at all by the loud shout. King Hengjiang, seeing how calm Chu Feng was, couldn’t help but look at him in a new light. ‘This kid really has some backbone.’ "Since the people from Dayan Holy Land are here, let’s go and meet them." "Alright." With that, Chu Feng made a welcoming gesture. "Senior, after you." "Chief Chu, after you," King Hengjiang replied, then took the lead walking out of the tent. As Chu Feng’s group left the tent, all the disciples and elders of Wendao Academy came out as well. Up in the sky, over a dozen people from Dayan Holy Land looked down at the crowd. At their head was an elder with graying hair and beard. This old man was none other than Diwu Qingyun. Right now, his face was full of murderous intent, eyes wide with rage. If looks could kill, he would have leveled the entire Wendao Academy camp by now. Just now, Diwu Qingyun’s furious shout had drawn the attention of all the nearby major factions. Conflicts had broken out before among the various factions after the Taixu Secret Realm ended, but they were all minor scuffles. But judging by the current posture of Dayan Holy Land, it seemed they were prepared for a life-and-death struggle with Wendao Academy. Some of the big shots had already started questioning their disciples about what exactly happened in the secret realm to make a leader from Dayan so furious. Seeing the elder in the lead, King Hengjiang instinctively narrowed his eyes, his expression turning serious. "Great Sage Diwu." "Hmph!" Diwu Qingyun gave a cold snort. "Hengjiang brat, since you remember me, you should also know why I’ve come here?" King Hengjiang replied with a smile, "Isn’t it just some petty fights among the juniors? Why, Great Sage Diwu, do you need to start a Holy Land war over it?" Diwu Qingyun shouted sharply, "That’s right! Today, I will start a Holy Land war! I’ll make you all understand that the disciples of my Dayan Holy Land are not so easily killed! Who will be the first to die?!" As his words fell, the pressure around him surged. Even though there was a formation shrouding Wendao Academy’s camp, the disciples present were still so overwhelmed by Diwu Qingyun’s aura that they could barely breathe. The onlookers started murmuring among themselves. "The Wendao Academy disciples really didn’t hold back this time, to have provoked Diwu Qingyun this much." "Master, is this Great Sage Diwu really that formidable?" "Of course. He broke through to the Half-Saint realm sixty years ago, and back then he was just over seven hundred years old. To break through at that age in a Holy Land is truly an extraordinary talent. After sixty years of cultivation, who knows how powerful he is now?" "..." The discussions were not loud, but in the quiet atmosphere, everyone could hear them clearly. Chu Feng thought to himself, ‘This old guy in front of me is at most in his eight hundreds. So-called Half-Saint means he’s comprehended the true meaning of the Dao, but he hasn’t fully deduced his own Dao yet. I will definitely win this fight.’ Thinking this, Chu Feng stepped forward, and King Hengjiang spoke up as well. "Great Sage Diwu, allow me to experience your Dao Truth." "Just you? That’s not enough!" Diwu Qingyun swept his gaze over all the elders of Wendao Academy with contempt. "You’d better all come at once, lest others say I’m bullying the weak with my strength!" Normally, if anyone dared to insult them like this, the elders of Wendao Academy would have rushed up to teach him a lesson. But standing before them now was a Great Sage. Though Nirvana and Half-Saint were only one realm apart, the gap was far greater than just a single stage. The key reason was that a Half-Saint had comprehended the truth of the Dao and could wield the power of the Dao itself in battle. No matter if it was sword intent or fist intent—in front of the true meaning of the Dao, they were not worth mentioning. The elders looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and took a step forward, all wearing the look of men going to their deaths. Just as the tension reached its peak, a playful voice sounded. "First you beat the young, then you bring out the old—so this is all the Dayan Holy Land amounts to?" The moment these words were spoken, the fury in Diwu Qingyun’s eyes grew even stronger. Everyone present turned to look in the direction of the voice. A young man fanning himself with a folding fan stepped out from the crowd, grinning as he tilted his head at Diwu Qingyun. "Hmph!" Seeing that someone from Wendao Academy had stepped out, Diwu Qingyun sneered, "Hengjiang, do you really think sending a boy to his death can soothe the rage in my heart?" King Hengjiang never imagined that Chu Feng would openly provoke Diwu Qingyun before all the heroes of the world. His expression turned anxious as he said, "Xiao Feng, what are you doing? This isn’t something you should get involved in." The elders of Wendao Academy were also dumbfounded. In their minds, Chu Feng was just a guy with unusually good luck. Even if he could give pointers to talents like Xiao Chen and the others, in terms of strength, he didn’t even compare to the other nine chief seats, not to mention them as elders! For him to step out and play the hero now—wasn’t he just courting death? Only Elder Bing’s eyes shone, her gaze full of anticipation as she looked at Chu Feng’s profile. ‘Sir is finally going to make a move. I wonder how strong he is now, and how much of the Dao Truth he’s mastered?’ Chu Feng turned to King Hengjiang and smiled slightly. "I appreciate your concern, Senior, but since this all started because of my disciple, as his teacher I can’t just stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, if word gets out, others will think my disciples have no one to rely on, and any random cat or dog can step on them." "You..." King Hengjiang wanted to say more, but seeing the determination in Chu Feng’s eyes, for a moment he didn’t know how to persuade this kid. Up in the sky, Diwu Qingyun heard Chu Feng’s words and frowned, his voice cold. "Boy, do you know what you’re saying? I can tell you—today’s matter is not something that can be settled with just your life!" Chu Feng grinned, shaking the folding fan in his hand. "Of course I know. Isn’t this all about someone from your Dayan Holy Land trying to kill my third disciple, Qin Qin, only to be killed by my fellow disciples from Wendao Academy in return? Since you, the ancestor of Dayan Holy Land, want to stand up for your disciple, why can’t I, as a teacher, stand up for mine?" With that, he glanced at Qin Qin. "Qin’er, today your teacher will kill a Half-Saint for you to vent your anger. The road ahead will be up to you." Qin Qin nodded slightly. "Thank you, Teacher." Utter disregard. Blatant, open disregard. Diwu Qingyun never imagined he would be ignored by a junior like this. The muscles on his face twitched slightly. "Good, very good. Today I want to see how you plan to kill me!" As he spoke, the pressure around him intensified. His terrifying aura could be felt within a hundred miles. Suddenly, the sound of swords echoed through the sky. Nine treasured swords flew to Diwu Qingyun’s side, and he shouted, "Form the array!" The nine swords instantly formed a sword array that enveloped the entire Wendao Academy camp. "Ninefold Dao Truth!" A powerful cultivator watching from afar saw the Dao Truth on each of the nine swords and called out in shock. The other powerhouses couldn’t help but marvel as well. "Great Sage Diwu truly is extraordinary. In just one cycle of sixty years, he’s comprehended ninefold Dao Truth. For an ordinary Half-Saint, even one Dao Truth in ten years would be impressive. If he keeps this up, within five hundred years he’s sure to comprehend eighty-onefold Dao Truth and step into the Saint Realm." "In my opinion, even eighty-one isn’t his limit. I bet he’ll strive for one hundred Dao Truths to perfect his Dao and go even further on the path of the Saints." "Wendao Academy is in real danger today." Inside Wendao Academy, everyone stared at the sword array in the sky, cold sweat pouring down their faces. Only Chu Feng took a step toward the sky, walking straight into the center of the sword array...==================================================================================== Get access to 20 chapters in advance and enjoy 2 daily updates by supporting the series.
