Martial God Asura

Chapter 6502: The Loser Grandfather Appears

The token carried a hint of Shangguan Fengquan’s aura.

Manifesting the token caused Shangguan Fengquan to grow fainter. Even the seven-colored gemstone on her forehead had grown dim.

Chu Feng half-kneeled on the ground and bowed deeply to Shangguan Fengquan. “Thank you for your special bestowment, Lord Sectmaster. I’ll not let you down.”

“Don’t be in a rush to thank me. It won’t be that easy for you to find us even after you enter the Ninth Galaxy. You have to work hard in your cultivation. The Ninth Galaxy is not that friendly to juniors like you. Rather, old folks like us benefit more from it,” Shangguan Fengquan said.

“It sounds like there’s a distinction between juniors and elders in the Ninth Galaxy. May I know the reason behind that?” Chu Feng asked.

“Cultivation is built upon accumulation and epiphanies.

“The natural energies in the eight galaxies are far weaker than the Ninth Galaxy, and our generation has depleted the resources left behind from the Ancient Era. Those who come after us have to rely on natural energies for their cultivation, but the limitations of their resources and talent doomed them to slow growth.”

Chu Feng strongly agreed with that. He had relied a lot on resources to advance his cultivation. If he had cultivated solely using natural energies, there was no way he could reach his current level at his age.

“But hard work is bound to reap rewards in cultivation.

“Cultivators who have been limited by the world of cultivation, upon entering the Ninth Galaxy and encountering richer natural energies, will find their accumulation bearing fruit. Their cultivation will surge at a rapid pace until they deplete their accumulation, then their cultivation will revert to its normal speed.

“Young prodigies like you possess exceptional intelligence and encounter fewer bottlenecks in your cultivation, but that also means that you lack accumulation,” Shangguan Fengquan said.

“The longer someone has cultivated here, the more rewards they will reap upon entering the Ninth Galaxy?” Chu Feng asked.

“Those who have cultivated long enough here will enjoy a growth spurt in the Ninth Galaxy. Nevertheless, talent is still the most important element for both cultivators and world spiritists. Even if two people have cultivated for the same time, the difference in talent may result in a difference in the rewards they reap from the Ninth Galaxy.

“I can tell you straight that your grandfather possesses both talent and accumulation. He is limited by his resources. Someone like him is bound to enjoy rapid growth upon entering the Ninth Galaxy,” Shangguan Fengquan said.

Eggy took this chance to ask, “Jie Tianran is a terrible person. Since Chu Feng is a member of the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect now, why don’t you kill him before your soul dissipates?”

“Milady Queen, I’m at my limit. My soul will dissipate before I can even look for Jie Tianran.” Shangguan Fengquan chuckled. She turned to Chu Feng and continued, “Chu Feng, the compensation given to the older generation only goes that far, but talent will take you further. You might not receive any compensation, but given your talent, they might not necessarily grow any faster than you in the Ninth Galaxy.

“Once I return, I’m going to brag all about you and tell those old monsters to tone it down. A formidable prodigy is about to join our Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect soon.”

Shangguan Fengquan looked at Chu Feng with expectant eyes before her silhouette disintegrated into an aura.

“Farewell, Lord Sectmaster.”

Chu Feng and Sikong Changsheng bowed. In particular, Sikong Changsheng’s eyes were filled with yearning.

Suddenly, Sikong Changsheng’s face darkened. He turned to Chu Feng and said, “Chu Feng, you have to leave right now.”

Before Chu Feng could utter a word, teleportation energy enveloped him.

He was transported not back to the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect’s main city, but back to space, where he had channeled the key fragments. Eggy stood right beside him.

The two of them widened their eyes in unease.

Countless people were gathered in the space around them. Among them were many familiar faces.

Long Chengyu, Long Muxi, their parents, and the Totem Dragon Clan’s experts.

The Totem’s Nine Daoists, Huahua, and Xia Xingchen.

Jie Shanxian, Jie Tiannian, and Daoist Starseizer.

What was worth mentioning was that no one from the Immortal Sea Fish Clan was present here.

All these people were shackled with formation collars that were linked together with a single chain, and the one holding the end of the chain was none other than Jie Tianran.

“Chu Feng, the key fragments have been activated. I know you’re here. Come out, or else I’ll start killing them,” Jie Tianran’s voice echoed.

The experts of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion assessed the surroundings, searching for Chu Feng’s whereabouts.

“Chu Feng, shall I make a move?” the Divine Deer asked.

The Divine Deer had the power to save everyone.

Before Chu Feng could answer, Jie Tianran tightened his grip on the chain and channeled spirit power through it. A bundle of light shone in the captives’ dantians. A gu harnessing tremendous power had grasped all their souls.

“That is... a Soul Sealing Gu. I’m afraid I’m unable to do anything about that. I can free them from those shackles, but I cannot dispel the Soul Sealing Gu,” the Divine Deer said.

Jie Tianran couldn’t stop the Divine Deer from saving everyone, but everyone would still die once Jie Tianran activated the Soul Sealing Gu.

“Chu Feng, I can try saving them.”

Eggy knew that Chu Feng wouldn’t sit still and watch as harm befell his family and friends, but Chu Feng didn’t have the power to oppose Jie Tianran. This meant that she would have to do something about the situation.

“Hold on, Eggy. Let me think of a solution first,” Chu Feng said as he flew into the distance.
