Chapter 6140: Meeting Red Cloak Again
“Wait a moment. Elders, should we construct this formation?”
Chu Feng drew a formation blueprint.
Long Moxiao and Long Mochuan could tell with a look that the formation prevented the spirit formation gate from closing. They could construct similar formations too, but the one drawn by Chu Feng was ingenious.
“Young friend Chu Feng, where did you obtain such ingenious formations from?” Long Mochuan asked.
“I obtained the Heaven’s Tome’s Initiate Tome by chance,” Chu Feng replied.
“It’s the Seven Realms Sacred Manion’s Heaven’s Tome? But I have never heard of the Heaven’s Tome having an Initiate Tome.”
Both Long Mochuan and Long Moxiao were astounded.
“I obtained it from the Ancestral Martial Realm Sect’s remnant,” Chu Feng replied.
After a quick chat, Long Mucheng and the others learned that Chu Feng had snatched an Ancestral Martial Realm Sect’s remnant from the hands of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.
In the meantime, Long Moxiao and Long Mochuan also completed the formation. They fused the formation into the spirit formation gate.
“Perfect. The entrance should not close with this formation.”
Long Moxiao and Long Mochuan nodded in satisfaction.
“Isn’t it the right decision for me to invite Chu Feng here?” Long Mucheng remarked gleefully.
“Of course. We would have still been trapped in the World Spiritist Emperor’s domain if not for young friend Chu Feng,” Long Mochuan said.
Even though they harbored no doubt about Chu Feng’s capabilities, the latter had surprised them yet again.
Chu Feng then provided them with a concealment formation, which was greatly strengthened when constructed by two pinnacle True Dragon World Spiritists.
With everything in place, Chu Feng and the others finally entered the spirit formation gate.
A vast realm awaited them on the other end.
There was ground beneath their feet, but above them was not the sky but a rock that sealed off the entire realm.
“The energy is much richer here.”
Long Mucheng closed her eyes and took a deep breath before smiling brightly. The concentration level of the energy in this realm was several times higher than outside.
But Chu Feng quickly looked in the southeast direction.
The lack of mountains in the realm opened up his range of sight. There was a formation in the far distance that rose from the ground, reaching the ceiling as if a pillar supporting the weight of the world.
That was the direction where Chu Feng and the others had come from.
From that, Chu Feng realized that the location of the formation matched one of the mines in the Golden River Upper Realm.
“That looks like a refinement formation,” Chu Feng said.
“Refinement formation?”
Long Mochuan, Long Moxiao, and Huahua were taken aback. They, too, were examining the formation, but they didn’t think that it was a refinement formation.
Chu Feng flew toward the formation. Long Mucheng and the others followed him.
As they approached the formation, they noticed cultivators’ auras in it. Through the details of the formation, Long Mochuan and Long Moxiao confirmed that it was a refinement formation.
“It’s connected to the mine outside. No wonder most of the miners lost their lives. They were simply assimilated by the formation.”
Long Mochuan, Long Moxiao, and Long Mucheng clenched their fists in anger.
With their higher cultivation level, they saw similar refinement formations spread over the realm. Each refinement formation overlapped with the location of a mine outside.
“But the cultivators are mostly on the weaker side. Is there a use to assimilating them?” Huahua was confused.
It was not uncommon for malevolent individuals to use cultivators as energy sources, but they usually went for stronger cultivators as they provided more energy.
Huahua was perplexed as she didn’t think the energy obtained from these weaker cultivators would be significant to someone who could construct such a formidable refinement formation.
“This formation is so profound that I can’t tell the purpose it serves, but those who are swept into it have no chance of survival,” Chu Feng said.
He had approached the formation to gather more information about it, but he was still unable to see through it.
“I don’t sense the Ancient Era’s aura from this formation. Is this the doing of a present-day cultivator?” Long Moxiao voiced his doubt.
“This formation is either channeled by a treasure or is a treasure in itself, just that the treasure is hidden deeper underground so what we are seeing is not its true form. I’m guessing that we are still not at the core of this realm yet. There is something more under our feet,” Chu Feng said.
“There is another underground level below?”
Long Mucheng and the others were surprised. If Chu Feng was right, the formations layout here would be far more intricate than they had previously anticipated.
“Chu Feng, I have a bad feeling about this,” Eggy suddenly remarked.
“Eggy, I know what you mean,” Chu Feng first replied Eggy before turning to Long Mucheng. “Elder, if you aren’t in a rush to make a breakthrough, we should first head back and search for another cultivation spot.”
“Head back? Chu Feng, did you notice something?” Long Mucheng asked.
“It could be from the present era or the Ancient Era, but a formidable organization dwells here. The powerhouse who told you about this place must have realized it, which was why he advised you not to come here,” Chu Feng said.
“Chu Feng, we need power more than ever to protect ourselves in the current world of cultivation. I want to reach Heavenly God level as soon as possible, and the energy here is a rare opportunity. I am absolutely confident of making a breakthrough here, and it won’t take long,” Long Mucheng said.
“Young friend Chu Feng, we haven’t encountered anyone yet. Based on what you have mentioned, it is likely that whatever organization residing here dwells not in this layer but in the layer beneath. Besides, the concealment formation we have constructed based on the blueprint you have provided should be able to deceive even a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist’s eyes. We should be relatively safe as long as we find a discreet spot, right?” Long Mochuan said.
Chu Feng had always believed in braving danger in seek of wealth, but he also understood the importance of taking calculated risks. He would avoid places that were too dangerous for him to maneuver in.
And this place unnerved Chu Feng. His instincts were telling him to leave this place as soon as possible.
“Chu Feng, why don’t you head back with the Flower Fairy World Spiritist first?” Long Mucheng said.
Huahua turned to Chu Feng.
She wasn’t inclined to follow Long Mucheng as there were no ties between them; she would follow Chu Feng whether he chose to stay or leave.
“Elder, I doubt you will leave even if I advise you to,” Chu Feng asked Huahua with a smile.
“Of course.” Huahua nodded.
“Haa!” Chu Feng sighed. He turned to Long Mucheng and said, “Since we came here together, we should leave together too.”
He decided to stay seeing that Long Mucheng had already made up her mind.
While his strength was limited, the advancement of his spirit power and the awakening of his world spiritist bloodline had granted him a deeper understanding of the Initiate Tome. He should be able to offer some help in terms of formations if they encounter issues along the way.
“Don’t worry, the energy here is extremely concentrated. It won’t take me long to make a breakthrough, and we will leave right afterward and never come here again.” Long Mucheng said with a laugh as she wrapped her hand around Chu Feng’s shoulders.
It was a brotherly gesture, but Long Mucheng’s figure was so good that her soft peaks inadvertently pressed against Chu Feng.
Huahua clenched her jaws in anger.
Fortunately, Chu Feng was not a sucker for beauty and voluntarily stepped away. Only then did Huahua breathe a sigh of relief.
“Elders, I’ll be troubling you to construct another formation.”
Chu Feng provided Long Moxiao and Long Muchuan with another formation blueprint. It was a massive formation that served to mask the surrounding flow of energy.
Long Mucheng would be absorbing energy from the surroundings once she began cultivating, and that could draw unwanted attention. Chu Feng’s formation controlled the energy’s flow rate to avoid detection.
Long Moxiao and Long Mochuan thought it was a wise idea and quickly got to work.
After the formation was up, Long Mucheng finally began cultivating.
Meanwhile, Chu Feng didn’t idle around.
He couldn’t use the energy here for his cultivation, but it had the effect of raising his intelligence. It could help him lay the foundation required to deal with the divine lightning tribulation when he eventually made his breakthrough to True God level.
Long Mucheng succeeded in making a breakthrough within three days.
A breakthrough to Heavenly God level should have indued a phenomenon, but Long Mucheng suppressed the phenomenon with a treasure. Even so, Chu Feng and the others could sense a tangible change in the surroundings.
It was as if Long Mucheng had metamorphosized!
“It worked!”
Long Mochuan and Long Moxiao were so moved that tears streamed down their eyes. They knew just how important Long Mucheng’s breakthrough was to their Dragon Breath Clan.
“I didn’t lie when I said that it wouldn’t take long, right?” Long Mucheng looked at Chu Feng in glee.
“Yes, you were extremely fast.” Chu Feng gave Long Mucheng a thumbs up.
Boom!
A loud explosion shattered their concealment formation.
Chu Feng quickly looked upward and saw thousands of figures eyeing them from above.
Most of them had silver hair and eyebrows, and they were dressed in flamboyant golden cloaks that glowed faintly. These golden cloaks were invaluable treasures.
A pattern reminiscent of a rune was embroidered on their cloak’s chest area. It was an Ancient Era’s character modified for aesthetics, but Chu Feng and the others could still recognize it.
It was the character for ‘God’.
These people looked at them with lofty eyes as if gods gazing down on mortals.
But Chu Feng and the others had their attention locked on an individual.
That individual was a young man who stood at the forefront of the group. He had dashing facial features and commanded a powerful disposition.
Unlike the others, his hair and eyebrows were golden, and he wore armor on top of his golden cloak. Shockingly, the armor was from the Immortal Sea Fish Clan. He was riding on a mount, but the mount was not a monstrous beast but a human.
That human wore a metal mask, and there was a chain tied to his neck that was held by the young man. But more importantly, that human wore a red cloak that Chu Feng recognized.
Chu Feng had previously met two powerful red-cloaked figures in the Ancestral Martial Galaxy. They easily massacred an ancient entity known as the Night Monarch. The younger red-cloaked figure was also the one who told Chu Feng that he had a powerful protective formation in him, which was the formation left by Chu Feng’s father.
Those two red-cloaked figures had left a deep impression on Chu Feng. They were far beyond his league back then.
He knew that they were going around killing Ancient Era’s races, though he didn’t know what their goal was.
The red cloak worn by the human, who was being used as a mount by that golden-haired young man, was identical to the two red-cloaked figures he had previously met.
