Martial Arts Overlord

The conversation between Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng became quieter and quieter, until it was almost inaudible, yet Luo Feng heard it all clearly.

"Sword Tomb... Sword Heart Heaven Jade... Holy Swordmaster..."

Retracting his gaze, Luo Feng carefully pondered over the conversation between the two, feeling somewhat shocked.

From Su Zhuyun’s words, it seemed that the Sword Heart Heaven Jade was the supreme treasure of the Sword Tomb, and it should currently be in the hands of the bloodline of the Holy Swordmaster.

However, deep down, he was very clear that the Sword Heart Heaven Jade was not elsewhere; it was with Yue Haitang.

"Could Yue Haitang be the descendant of that Holy Swordmaster of the Sword Tomb..."

Luo Feng was deep in thought, his gaze falling on Yue Haitang’s face.

Yue Haitang’s beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if pondering something, and seemed not to have heard the latter part of Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng’s conversation.

"Luo Feng, what’s wrong?"

Noticing Luo Feng’s gaze, Yue Haitang looked up and asked in confusion.

Luo Feng shook his head, "It’s nothing. Haitang, you look much better."

Though he was curious about the whole matter, he understood that now was not the time to inquire.

Hearing Luo Feng’s words, Yue Haitang blushed slightly and smiled:

"Thanks to your Qingling Revitalizing Pill, I feel as if my injuries have recovered by about fifty to sixty percent. It’s indeed a sixth-grade healing sacred medicine."

The tone paused, and Yue Haitang glanced at Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng on the other side, saying with some emotion:

"It’s really a stroke of luck that we managed to escape from the encirclement of thousands of Blood Demon Sect disciples, plus ten Demon Generals. I fear no one would believe it if we said it."

Luo Feng nodded.

Indeed, even as he recalled the events of the day, he still felt a lingering fear. Not to mention others, even just the Corpse Ghost Taoist was too strong. If Shui Qingcheng hadn’t appeared in time, he and Yue Haitang might have already turned into nameless bones in the wilderness.

Sigh...

Gently exhaling, Luo Feng looked at Yue Haitang, revealing a determined look in his eyes, and slowly said:

"The martial world is dangerous, and we can’t be this lucky every time. To survive in this chaotic time, we must be strong ourselves. The Canglang Dynasty is too small. If we only confine our vision here, we’ll always be frogs at the bottom of a well."

"Mm."

Yue Haitang silently nodded, admiring Luo Feng’s insight, and at the same time, she recalled that feeling of helplessness when Luo Feng was forced into a desperate situation by the Corpse Ghost Taoist, and couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly.

The night deepened, and in the night sky, a grand moon was surrounded by a myriad of brilliant stars.

Beside the bright moon floated wisps of thin clouds, hanging high.

In the desert, aside from the crackling of the bonfire and occasional beast roars, there was no other sound.

Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng sat together, their eyes slightly closed, both meditating and cultivating. Threads of sharpness emanated from their bodies, forming a transparent sword-shaped Qi force, which then flowed into the vital points around their bodies, repeating the cycle endlessly.

Luo Feng and Yue Haitang, not fully healed, after chatting for a while, each seized the time to begin cultivating.

Sitting cross-legged at the leeward side of a dune, Luo Feng placed his hands on his abdomen, slowly operating the Divine Dragon Nine Changes, and gradually immersed his mind into his body.

Hmm!

The instant his consciousness fully sank into his body, Luo Feng’s mind couldn’t help but be stirred.

In the Dantian in Hades, that wisp of dragon-shaped True Yuan condensed once more; apart from that, there was a human-shaped light mass within the dantian.

The human-shaped light mass had a silhouette somewhat reminiscent of Shui Qingcheng, with strands of purple thunderbolts flickering on its surface, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.

"Could it be Shui Qingcheng left behind the Divine Refining Body in me?"

Luo Feng gazed at the human-shaped light mass, hesitated for a moment, and spiritually approached it.

Boom!

As soon as his consciousness touched the light mass, a thunderous boom erupted inside the Dantian. The intense Yuan Qi fluctuation almost shattered his consciousness, like an explosion.

"Such a terrifying amount of Yuan Qi! Enough for me to break through to the True Yuan Realm!"

Slightly shocked, Luo Feng felt indescribably delighted in his heart.

Breaking through from the Spiritual Rotation Realm to the True Yuan Realm requires refining all Yuan Qi in the body into True Yuan, which demands a massive accumulation of Yuan Qi.

Luo Feng has an extraordinary talent; compared to others at the same level, his Yuan Qi amount far exceeds them, thus needing an even more terrifying amount of Yuan Qi to break through, making it incredibly difficult.

The last time he obtained half of a Single-Horned Crimson Flame Python, and after consuming it, he merely just touched the threshold of the True Yuan Realm. According to his estimation, at a normal cultivation pace, breaking through to the True Yuan Realm would take at least ten days to half a month.

This is the most optimistic estimate; any slight misstep, and even by the time the New Dragon List Tournament begins, there might not be a breakthrough.

What he didn’t expect was that, after Shui Qingcheng performed the Divine Refining Body, such a massive amount of Yuan Qi would be left inside him!

In his view, the Yuan Qi amount in this human-shaped light mass was even more terrifying than that of half a Single-Horned Red Cloud Python!

"Could it be Shui Qingcheng left it on purpose?"

Luo Feng pondered silently, going back and forth but unable to get a definitive answer, and finally could only let it go.

Regardless, the appearance of the human-shaped light mass was a massive boon to him.

Now, his cultivation has already touched the True Yuan Realm threshold; if he could fully refine this human-shaped light mass, he would definitely enter the True Yuan Realm.

"Let’s give it a try!"

Taking a deep breath, Luo Feng gathered his focus, operated the Divine Dragon Nine Changes, and began refining this magnificent energy.

Time flew by quickly.

Two hours...

Four hours...

When the morning star appeared in the sky, Luo Feng’s body trembled slightly, a profound sense spread out, causing the space around him to vibrate mysteriously before calming down as if nothing had happened.

"It’s done!"

Awakening from his deep focus, Luo Feng sensed the change within him, his eyes gleaming with brilliance.

The Yuan Qi contained within the human-shaped light mass was even more terrifying than he had imagined.

He had only refined half of the light mass, and his entire meridian system felt as if it’s overflowing, even subtly giving rise to a sense of metamorphosis.

Having the experience of Nine Dragons Return Yuan and refining a wisp of True Yuan, Luo Feng understood that this was the sign of breaking through to the True Yuan Realm. As long as he channeled all the Yuan Qi in his body in one go and refined it into True Yuan, he could smoothly step into the True Yuan Realm.

However, he did not do so.

This was not the place to make a breakthrough, and he also did not wish to alert Su Zhuyun and the others.

"Continue to consolidate cultivation, making the breakthrough another day..."

After a while, Luo Feng’s mind calmed down once more, and he closed his eyes to continue his cultivation.

Across from him, Su Zhuyun, who had been sitting and meditating, slowly opened her eyes, glanced at Luo Feng once, her eyes shimmering slightly in the night, then she closed her eyes again, ignoring everything.

The night quickly passed.

Early the next morning, Su Zhuyun kept her word and escorted Luo Feng and Yue Haitang out of the Red Flame Desert.

Throughout the journey, it was very peaceful, with no appearance from any Demon Sect disciples, and even Demon Beasts, sensing the dangerous aura emanating from the group, hid deeply, not daring to show themselves.

Travelling at full speed, the group took less than four hours to leave the Red Flame Desert.

"Alright, I have some things to attend to, so I’ll see you off here."

Pausing at a dune, Su Zhuyun stopped.

Luo Feng followed, stopping as well, bowing respectfully to Su Zhuyun and saying: "I will never forget this life-saving grace. Until we meet again!"

Jiang Fengfeng stood by, slightly tilting her chin, with an air of arrogance, waiting for Luo Feng to express gratitude to her.

However, things didn’t unfold as she expected.

"Haitang, let’s go."

It was as if Luo Feng didn’t see Jiang Fengfeng, and he turned to Yue Haitang and said.

Yue Haitang, her gaze wandering once between Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng, smiled faintly, and gently nodded.

Seeing Luo Feng about to leave, Jiang Fengfeng finally couldn’t hold it, her eyebrows raised:

"Luo Feng, the one who saved you wasn’t only Senior Sister!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng paused, turned to look at Jiang Fengfeng, and said with sudden realization, "I almost forgot about you. Thank you."

After finishing, Luo Feng and Yue Haitang performed Qinggong, swiftly dashing away.

"You!"

Bam!

Watching Luo Feng’s rapidly shrinking figure, Jiang Fengfeng, her face turned livid with anger, stomped and created a large pit in the sand.

Turning her gaze aside, Jiang Fengfeng suddenly looked at Su Zhuyun and said:

"Senior Sister, the Sword Heart Heaven Jade might be in the nearby dynasties. How about we check out the Canglang Dynasty first?"
