Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Ten days later.

”What, Ling Feng encountered the Soul Sealing Curse?”

In the main hall of Du Yue Heaven Palace, Xuanyuan Longteng heard this news, and immediately slammed the table, jumping up from his seat.

The elders of the nine major families present had varying expressions; some sighed with regret, while others took pleasure in the misfortune.

After a long time, Xuanyuan Longteng took a deep breath and sighed: ”Truly, Heaven is jealous of talent! Elder Zhuge, where is Ling Feng now?”

Zhuge Qingtian shook his head and sighed: ”On the day Ling Feng fought with that Golden Flood Dragon Young Master, they battled to the very last moment. Although he managed to slay the Golden Flood Dragon Young Master, he was also severely wounded. Amidst the struggle between the two clans, he fell into the great river and lost his whereabouts. Though I led my disciples to search tirelessly for many days, we found nothing in the end.”

”Alas...”

Xuanyuan Longteng sighed once again, ”The Blood-colored Ancient Road is fraught with danger. With Ling Feng’s elemental power sealed by the Soul Sealing Curse, if he encounters the Blood Clan, the consequences would be unimaginable...”

”That kid fell under the Soul Sealing Curse and has become a cripple, losing all value.”

The Sun Family Elder, who had always been displeased with Ling Feng, immediately said disparagingly: ”The Soul Sealing Curse is absolutely unbreakable. Even if he were found, he’d only be a useless waste. Ling Feng is no longer worth the resources and energy for nurturing.”

”You!”

Zhuge Qingtian furrowed his brow, let out a cold snort, and fell silent.

Though the Sun Family Elder’s words were unpleasant, from the sect’s perspective, how was a waste worth their effort?

”The Soul Sealing Curse is truly unbreakable. For now, let’s consider how to clean up the mess.”

Xuanyuan Longteng sighed lightly. Although he admired Ling Feng, as the Palace Master of Du Yue Heaven Palace, he had to consider the bigger picture.

After all, Ling Feng had killed the Golden Flood Dragon Young Master; the Demon Clan would not let it rest.

In the Blood-colored Ancient Road, given the circumstances, they might have temporarily tolerated it, but once the news reached the Golden Jiao Great Saint’s ears, it might incite rage.

Du Yue Heaven Palace might face the wrath of the entire Demon Clan.

At the moment, Ling Feng’s whereabouts were unknown, and no one could find him. Perhaps, that wasn’t a bad thing.

Just hope that fortune favors that boy.

Xuanyuan Longteng secretly sighed in his heart, then continued: ”The urgent task at hand is to stabilize the situation with the Demon Clan. Elder Zhuge, please make a trip to Tianchuan Sword Mansion. If the Demon Clan insists on starting a war, Tianchuan Sword Mansion might ally with us.”

Zhuge Qingtian nodded. The search for Ling Feng could only be carried out secretly by some disciples within the family.

At least, he wasn’t willing to give up on Ling Feng so easily.

...

”Have you heard? Ling Feng was hit by the Demon Clan’s Soul Sealing Curse and has become a cripple!”

Soon, the story of Ling Feng’s deeds on the Blood-colored Ancient Road spread vigorously throughout Du Yue Heaven Palace.

”Ling Feng? Which Ling Feng?”

”Who else? Naturally, Lingfeng, the chief of the Lingyun Alliance!”

”Damn, no way, he just stood out in Du Yue Heaven Palace, and before he could warm the seat of the Ten Strongest, he’s already wasted?”

”Not only wasted, but it’s said that his fate is unknown, his whereabouts unclear. I think he’s already dead!”

A disciple of the Eastern Alliance gloated.

”No wonder he didn’t show up on the day he was supposed to duel Senior Brother Dongfang two days ago!”

”Heh, he not only missed that one, I reckon he won’t appear at all in the future. Even if he does, being a cripple, what waves can he make.”

”He will return! I believe he will come back even stronger, as a king returning!”

At this moment, a resolute-looking young man loudly refuted, and everyone turned to look, realizing it was Xiao Juanyun!

The chief hall master of Lingyun Alliance!

”Heh heh, Xiao Juanyun, I advise you not to delude yourself! A king returning, you must be dreaming!”

A hall master of the Eastern Alliance laughed heartily and said, ”Well, you finally clung to Ling Feng’s thigh, yet before you could enjoy it for a few days, that thigh got crippled. It’s understandable that you can’t accept it right away!”

Xiao Juanyun took a deep breath, turned, and left with a flick of his sleeve.

Ling Feng is the soul of Lingyun Alliance.

Without Ling Feng, he alone was destined to be overwhelmed.

If Ling Feng could not return for a long time, everything he once hoped for would turn into a phantom.

”Brother Ling, you must come back alive!”

Xiao Juanyun took a deep breath. What he could do now was silently pray for Ling Feng.

...

Elsewhere.

”Ling Feng was hit by the Soul Sealing Curse and lost within the Blood-colored Ancient Road?”

Dongfang Chun’s eyes shot out a cold glint, yet his tone carried a hint of regret.

”No wonder he dared to break the appointment on the day of our duel.”

Dongfang Chun pondered for a moment, then said, ”But he was able to defeat the Golden Flood Dragon Young Master who had advanced to Saint Level...”

After a long while, he sighed lightly, slowly saying, ”If he had come to duel, I fear I would not be his equal!”

”Senior Brother Dongfang, you’re exaggerating, aren’t you? That kid is just...”

Jiaan Guangyi, hearing Dongfang Chun admit he was inferior to Ling Feng, immediately spoke out to explain something.

”Enough, in any case, a fallen genius is just the past.”

Dongfang Chun said lightly: ”Whether he’s dead or alive, he’s destined to be a cripple. Why should I compare myself with a cripple? It’s just a bit regretful that we couldn’t have that battle!”

”Yes, what Senior Brother says is very correct.” Jiaan Guangyi quickly nodded in agreement.

”Ling Feng is indeed something.”

Dongfang Chun took a deep breath, slowly saying: ”Issue my command, any who voluntarily leave Lingyun Alliance will not be held accountable. If they stubbornly persist, make them unable to take a step within Du Yue Heaven Palace! I’ll give them a month to think about it!”

Although Ling Feng is no longer a concern, he couldn’t tolerate any sand in his eyes.

The existence of Lingyun Alliance was undoubtedly a constant reminder that a junior named Ling Feng had once shaken his position.

This is something he could not tolerate!

...

Violent pain constantly assaulted him.

Ling Feng felt as if he’d been through a long journey, drifting in a vast ocean, floating with the waves.

During the battle with the Golden Flood Dragon Young Master, countless bones in his body were fractured, and with the impact of the ”Soul Sealing Curse,” the elemental power in his dantian was completely sealed.

His physical body’s ability to recover had naturally deteriorated to the extreme, just slightly stronger than ordinary mortal people.

Fortunately, Ling Feng had taken in Zi Feng as a Spirit Pet. Although Ling Feng’s power was sealed, the Spiritual Pet Contract still existed.

Through shared vitality, despite Ling Feng’s severe injuries, he still clung to life and did not die immediately.

In a daze, Ling Feng felt as if he’d finally left the cold and damp, quietly lying in what seemed like a cradle or perhaps cradled in a mother’s arms, gently rocking, so warm, so comfortable, so comfortable that he almost didn’t want to wake up.
