Chapter 497: Chapter 498: Heading to the Void Sea (First Update)

An Outer Disciple, a Divine Power Martial Artist, dares to say he wants to kill the Night Monarch.

Bai Xuan would probably burst out laughing if she heard such news from someone else.

Who is the Night Monarch?

He is the foremost among the Beimang Academy’s Disciples of his generation, a Core Disciple, with an Innate Divine Body—a standout even among the countless Innate Divine Bodies, the Chaotic Physique!

This Chaotic Physique is a terrifying constitution that ranks within the top ten among the countless Innate Divine Bodies.

Chu Fengmian’s strength has even reached the terrifying pinnacle of the Life and Death Realm, and when it comes to true power, is even vaguely surpassing the Life and Death Realm.

To say nothing of an Outer Disciple, even an Inner Sect Disciple or a Seed Disciple would be daydreaming to think they could confront the Night Monarch.

But now, from Chu Fengmian’s words, there exudes boundless confidence, a confidence that even Bai Xuan finds a bit startling and seemingly irrefutable.

"This person’s talent is indeed extraordinary; perhaps after he grows, he will not be weaker than the Night Monarch. Even if he cannot contend against the Night Monarch in the future, he will still achieve something remarkable within the Beimang Academy."

"It’s not a bad idea to befriend him now."

Bai Xuan thought to herself.

She had come to understand some of Chu Fengmian’s character, and what is more commendable is that Chu Fengmian, unlike many Martial Artists who would betray friends for personal gain, is clear about right and wrong.

Chu Fengmian always values friendship, which is indeed the most precious trait among many Martial Artists. Befriending Chu Fengmian, at the very least, one won’t be stabbed in the back by him.

That’s why Bai Xuan felt at ease approaching Chu Fengmian to draw him in, inviting him to explore the Virtual Sea with her, and to seek out the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s cave.

"Although Han Yueli’s event has been shocking, there is now another event within the Beimang Academy that is even more sensational. Have you heard about it?"

Bai Xuan deliberately played coy as she spoke.

Chu Fengmian was certainly aware that this was about the Ten Thousand Thunders Imperial Tribulation, but his face feigned ignorance as he casually replied.

"Oh? I just left the sacred mountain; what’s happened in the Beimang Academy now?"

"It seems you’re not aware, but it’s normal since you were cultivating on the sacred mountain."

Bai Xuan slowly spoke, her eyes also full of astonishment.

"It’s not about our Beimang Academy; it’s a major event that has occurred in the entire Northern Domain, even affecting all Nine Domains—a genius has passed the Ten Thousand Thunders Imperial Tribulation."

"Ten Thousand Thunders Imperial Tribulation? Is it one of our Beimang Academy’s Disciples?"

Chu Fengmian showed a few traces of shock as he asked.

"Who is it?"

"I don’t know, and he is not one of our Beimang Academy’s Disciples. Many of the academy’s elders have already departed to investigate," replied Bai Xuan.

"Even many old relics from the various academies have emerged, all seeking to find out who passed the Ten Thousand Thunders Imperial Tribulation."

"This individual must not be from any major power, and so, not only our Beimang Academy but also the Earth Fiend Sect and numerous forces in the Northern Domain are all searching for this person’s whereabouts."

There was much envy and jealousy in Bai Xuan’s words, but even more so, a sigh.

"Although this person has passed the Ten Thousand Thunders Imperial Tribulation, it has brought him many disasters. I’m afraid that no matter which power he joins, he will be continuously targeted for assassination," she said.

"A genius who has overcome the Ten Thousand Thunders Imperial Tribulation, if allowed to grow, will definitely affect the current situation in the Northern Domain. No power would want such a fearsome being to rise."

After hearing Bai Xuan’s words, Chu Fengmian also felt a chill run through his heart.

Chu Fengmian was originally overjoyed after surviving the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders, but after hearing Bai Xuan’s words, which specifically named him, Chu Fengmian finally understood.

Although he had gained countless benefits from the experience, the greater thing he had obtained was danger.

A genius who could survive the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders, once grown, could influence the Northern Domain, even the entire situation in the Nine Domains.

Just as Chu Fengmian belonged to Beimang Academy, if he were to publicize this news, Beimang Academy would definitely make a strong effort to cultivate him.

But, powers like the Earth Demon Sect, which opposed Beimang Academy, knowing this news, would also go mad trying to assassinate and chase after Chu Fengmian.

Even with complete protection, in the face of a huge power’s pursuit, there would be nothing left but to fall.

Fortunately, Chu Fengmian had not revealed this news; he also understood the sensational nature of surviving the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders.

Only now, after listening to Bai Xuan’s words, did Chu Fengmian truly understand that this news was far more terrifying than he had imagined.

"The news of me surviving the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders must never be exposed."

Chu Fengmian thought to himself.

His surviving the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders had taken place in the boundless void, so it was impossible for anyone to know unless Chu Fengmian himself exposed it. As long as he kept it secret, he would be extremely safe.

Moreover, Chu Fengmian was still just at the Realm of Divine Power, not yet reached the Life and Death Realm, so even if there were suspicions, they couldn’t possibly fall upon him.

However, this served as a reminder to Chu Fengmian. The more miraculous experiences he had on him, the more trouble he would be in if they were exposed.

The Emperor’s Pot, Battle Dragon Technique, the power of creation, and now Chu Fengmian having survived the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders.

Any one of these matters, if revealed, would cause a shock across the Nine Domains. Chu Fengmian must protect these secrets at all costs.

"Actually, the time of your breakthrough is extremely close to when the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders occurred."

Bai Xuan spoke and couldn’t help but give Chu Fengmian a few more glances.

"I even had some doubts at that time, that it was you."

"Except, you were only making a breakthrough to Divine Power Realm, which can’t possibly summon a heavenly tribulation. If it had been a breakthrough to the Life and Death Realm at that time, then I would have felt certain that it was you."

Although Bai Xuan’s words were casual, they seemed to conceal a probing undertone.

Chu Fengmian sneered inwardly but showed a smile on his face.

"How could that be, the Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders? I would be grateful to summon the King Tribulation of a Hundred Thunders when I face the great tribulation of life and death."

"The Emperor Tribulation of Ten Thousand Thunders is not something a common martial artist like me could summon."

"You don’t have to be so modest. Your talent is actually not much lower than Han Yueli’s. In the future, it is quite possible for you to summon the Emperor Tribulation of a Thousand Thunders, and then you will also receive cultivation from the academy."

Bai Xuan smiled and said.

"Forget it, let’s not talk about this any longer. Right now, we haven’t even reached the limit of the Divine Power Realm, let alone discussing the great tribulation of life and death."

"Let’s go. If we keep chatting, they might start getting anxious."

"The meeting place we agreed on is on the outskirts of the Sea of Void; we should head there first."

"The Sea of Void, I’m finally about to witness its true form."

A hint of longing was revealed in Chu Fengmian’s heart. He had long wanted to see for himself the legendary Sea of Void.

"Let’s go!"

Two beams of escaping light instantly disappeared from within Beimang Academy.
