Chapter 213: Chapter 214: Everyone Converges to Kill (1st Update) (Please Favorite, Tip, and Recommend)

With Chu Fengmian’s current strength, he was far from qualified to contend with a Saint Heir.

"Zhi Lingtian, although he has not made a breakthrough yet, should be very soon," Han Yueli spoke.

"Zhi Lingtian, within an ancient ruin, obtained a Transcendence Herb. He has now reached the pinnacle of the Gale Realm and should be close to breaking through to the Divine Power Realm."

"Transcendence Herb!" Chu Fengmian couldn’t help but exclaim when he heard the name. Zhi Lingtian indeed had great fortune to be able to procure such a treasure.

Though the Transcendence Herb was not considered a Spiritual Medicine, its value was by no means inferior to some lower-grade ones.

Because the effect of the Transcendence Herb was the simplest of all.

That was to enable a martial artist at the pinnacle of the Gale Realm to break through to the Divine Power Realm.

And the probability of this breakthrough was, a hundred percent.

As long as one was a martial artist at the pinnacle of the Gale Realm, no matter their talent, acquiring the Transcendence Herb would guarantee a breakthrough to the Divine Power Realm.

Thus, the Transcendence Herb was undoubtedly one of the most valuable Spiritual Medicines in the Nine Domains, an immense opportunity indeed.

Such talent like Zhi Lingtian was not only extraordinarily gifted but also possessed great fate, allowing him to encounter various fortuitous adventures and grow rapidly.

Chu Fengmian obtaining the Monument of Fertility and the inheritance from the Emperor of Fertility could also be considered his fate.

Talents with such immense fate were the most troublesome to deal with.

"How long ago did Zhi Lingtian obtain the Transcendence Herb?" Chu Fengmian asked Han Yueli.

It seemed that not many people outside knew of this news yet. Otherwise, it would have spread everywhere by now—since obtaining the Transcendence Herb would mean Zhi Lingtian’s status might even surpass many Semi-Saints.

It was no wonder Zhi Lingtian dared to be so arrogant, disregarding even the three Hall Masters. Once he broke through to the Divine Power Realm, the next headmaster of Wu Sheng Academy would undoubtedly be him.

The upper echelon of Wu Sheng Academy wouldn’t likely punish a person with a limitless future.

The refinement of the Transcendence Herb required a year’s time, so Chu Fengmian was also eager to know how long Zhi Lingtian had already had the herb.

"More than half a year has passed already," Han Yueli suddenly spoke, not knowing why Chu Fengmian asked this, but she answered obediently nonetheless.

"More than half a year, which means there are only two or three months left," Chu Fengmian calculated silently upon hearing this.

In two or three months, Chu Fengmian would have to grow strong enough to match a Saint Heir. It seemed an utterly fantastical endeavor, but Chu Fengmian had no choice but to attempt it.

Once Zhi Lingtian made the breakthrough, probably the first thing he would do was to try to kill Chu Fengmian. Even facing the desperate struggle of a Saint Heir, another Saint Heir might not necessarily offer protection.

Even under the protection of his master, the Saint Heir Xuan Bei, it would not be difficult for Zhi Lingtian to eliminate Chu Fengmian.

Thus, at this moment, the only thing Chu Fengmian could rely on was his own strength. He must reach the level where he could contend with a Saint Heir before Zhi Lingtian’s power reached such a level.

"Two or three months to reach a strength capable of contending with a Saint Heir is not entirely impossible," Chu Fengmian contemplated inwardly.

This task would be impossible for anyone else, but for Chu Fengmian, it might not be certain.

The Battle Dragon Technique he practiced was undoubtedly a cultivation technique that transcended this era. Even among the Nine Domains, Chu Fengmian had never heard of such a powerful technique.

Chu Fengmian even doubted where Xing Xuan had come across such a terrifying technique.

With the mighty power of the Battle Dragon Technique, perhaps Chu Fengmian truly had a chance within two or three months’ time to enhance his strength to a level comparable to that of a Saint.

"Rest assured, I will solve your marital engagement with Zhi Lingtian."

Chu Fengmian looked at Han Yueli and suddenly spoke.

"The last thing I want is for you to fall into the hands of a useless person like Zhi Lingtian."

Zhi Lingtian was Chu Fengmian’s sworn enemy, sooner or later Chu Fengmian would slay him, and as for Han Yueli, Chu Fengmian did not plan on letting her marry Zhi Lingtian.

During their time together, Chu Fengmian increasingly realized that Han Yueli and the figure in his heart were remarkably similar.

Hearing about Han Yueli’s betrothal to Zhi Lingtian, anger burned within Chu Fengmian’s heart.

In his previous life, he was so focused on finding a way to resolve the issues with his body that he never harbored any romantic feelings.

Therefore, even now, Chu Fengmian was unsure what his feelings for Han Yueli truly were.

But one thing Chu Fengmian could confirm was that he did not want Han Yueli to marry Zhi Lingtian.

"Okay..."

Han Yueli responded in a low voice, her tone subdued, yet tinged with a hint of anticipation.

"Let’s go, it’s also time to leave."

Chu Fengmian glanced at Han Yueli and said to her.

Two figures immediately turned into a streak of light, vanishing within the tomb, and in an instant, they were back in the Holy Land.

"They’re here!"

As their two figures arrived in the Holy Land, several presences suddenly appeared around them.

"Hmph."

Seeing these presences, Chu Fengmian’s expression did not show any surprise; he had long anticipated that these people would not simply leave on their own accord but would certainly come after him.

"Yan Nan, Chu Ning, Cheng Tiangong, Feng Poxuan, Mo Ruoxue, everyone, come out."

Chu Fengmian looked around and laughed out loud, calling them.

These five presences, Chu Fengmian recognized them at a glance.

"Oh? It seems that Chu Fengmian, you indeed reaped great benefits within the tomb, to be able to detect our presences."

A haughty laughter rang out.

A figure in scarlet appeared at once before Chu Fengmian, with boundless Spiritual Power surging around Yan Nan, ready to attack at any moment.

Beside Yan Nan, Chu Ning, Cheng Tiangong, Feng Poxuan, and Mo Ruoxue also slowly emerged.

They positioned themselves around Chu Fengmian, encircling him.

"It seems that all of you have been waiting for Chu for quite some time..."

Chu Fengmian scanned the assembled crowd with a cold sneer.

"Where’s the Saint Heir? Why isn’t he here?"

Of the six people remaining in the tomb, five were present, save for the Saint Heir who was absent.

"The Saint Heir, that good-for-nothing, went off on his own, but to deal with you, having him or not makes no difference. Without him, one less person to share your wealth."

Chu Ning sneered coldly, a vicious smile on his lips as he looked at Chu Fengmian.

"Kid, last time you were lucky enough to escape with your life, this time I want to see if your luck continues to let you escape."
