Chapter 400 - 399: The Astonishing Speed of Drawing Hatred
The Five Sacred Mountains!
Qin Feng’s gaze finally settled on this treasure. He chose it for a single, crucial reason: its primary function was suppression.
According to ancient myths, there were five Ancient Divine Mountains on the Spirit Sea Continent that supported the heavens and the earth in the five cardinal directions. They were said to be boundlessly vast.
The technique for the Five Sacred Mountains was created by the peerless expert behind the Divine Weapon Hundred Treasures Technique, who modeled it after observing the true Divine Mountains.
The Chaos Heaven had only just been created. If he could refine the Five Sacred Mountains to support it, it would become infinitely stable, harmonize the Five Elements, and suppress the elemental forces of earth, water, wind, and fire. This would bring unimaginable benefits for overcoming the great tribulations of chaos.
Ji Huang’Er glanced at Qin Feng, a profound look flashing in her beautiful eyes before she immediately transmitted the Cultivation Secret Technique for the Five Sacred Mountains to him.
After receiving the cultivation technique for the Five Sacred Mountains, Qin Feng took a deep breath moments later. The method was truly profound and unfathomable.
If he followed the Secret Technique, achieving Great Success with the Five Sacred Mountains would grant him power beyond the ken of gods and ghosts.
’This could be considered an unconventional Great Divine Ability.’
After a moment of thought, Qin Feng condensed the cultivation method for the Chaos Fire Divine Technique from his mind into a silver orb of light.
Ji Huang’Er took the orb of light, closing her eyes. She seemed to be using a Secret Technique to scan it for any issues. After a short while, apparently satisfied that it was safe, she crushed the silver orb and absorbed its contents.
"The Chaos Fire Divine Technique? It actually touches upon the profound mysteries of disaster and Qi Fortune?" Ji Huang’Er’s beautiful eyes flew open, a trace of delighted surprise within them.
Soon, Ji Huang’Er’s brow furrowed as she looked at Qin Feng. "This is part of a set of Great Divine Abilities, isn’t it?"
Slightly surprised, Qin Feng replied, "Junior Sister Ji, you wouldn’t be able to cultivate the other Great Divine Abilities in the set!"
Qin Feng had indirectly answered Ji Huang’Er’s question.
"You actually possess a Secret Technique of this caliber!" Ji Huang’Er was shaken to the core.
Cultivation methods for Great Divine Abilities were typically the secret True Inheritance techniques of the major sects.
But there are ranks even among Great Divine Abilities, and a complete set like this was clearly far superior to any ordinary Great Divine Power Secret Technique.
"Could it be... a Disaster-Grade Great Divine Ability?" Ji Huang’Er drew a sharp breath, shaken by her own guess.
Still in shock, Ji Huang’Er left the lounge.
After a moment of thought, Qin Feng also stepped out, the two of them leaving the same lounge one after the other.
As soon as he opened the door to the lounge, Qin Feng saw dozens of shocked faces.
Looking at the crowd of tournament participants gathered at the door, Qin Feng froze.
Ji Huang’Er was also stunned.
The next moment, the silence outside the lounge shattered as the crowd exploded.
"The rumor was actually true! The Phoenix Goddess of All Stars Academy, Ji Huang’Er, was really getting a room with that Elder Cyan Dragon!"
"Wow, he’s something else! It took him less than a year to land the oh-so-haughty Phoenix Goddess, Ji Huang’Er!"
"It’s really true! My goddess is living with Qin Feng! Oh my god, my world is collapsing!"
"Some guys have all the luck!"
...
Ji Huang’Er was dumbfounded. Pointing at Qin Feng in disbelief, she stammered, "Me... living together... with you?"
"Well, that’s what they’re saying!" Qin Feng didn’t seem to mind, although the many angry glares made him a little uncomfortable.
Ji Huang’Er was widely acknowledged as the greatest beauty in All Stars Academy, with a sea of admirers and suitors.
"What are you trying to say?" Ji Huang’Er glared at Qin Feng, her anger simmering.
"What else could it mean? Even though you have a bit of a temper, I’d still be willing to do you the favor of marrying you!" Qin Feng glanced at the red-robed girl, his eyes tracing the explosive, curvaceous figure that was accentuated by her anger, especially the flash of snowy-white skin at her collar.
They were standing so close, and a faint, pleasant fragrance drifted from her. Qin Feng’s nose twitched slightly, and a glint appeared in his eyes.
Ji Huang’Er followed Qin Feng’s gaze to her own full, firm chest and secretly gritted her teeth. "Where are you looking?"
"Don’t be such a spitfire. With a body that good, isn’t it meant to be looked at?" Qin Feng gave the red-robed girl a lazy glance.
Ignoring the crowd’s furious and jealous stares, he strolled leisurely toward the Arena of the Stars.
After three rounds of matches, the fourth would be the battle for the top 100.
The battle for the top 100 would be no easy feat. Anyone who made it this far had already proven their strength.
Qin Feng was under a lot of pressure, but after half a day of rest and adjustment, he had gained some confidence.
He had finally refined the Ancient Poison Flame.
Now that the Ancient Poison Flame was refined, the might of his Chaos Fire Divine Technique had skyrocketed.
The Ancient Poison Flame was a top-tier, terrifying flame, and its power was truly immense.
Left standing there, Ji Huang’Er watched Qin Feng go, stomped her foot in frustration, and then her footsteps—TAP, TAP, TAP—faded as she walked away in the opposite direction.
"You’re something else, Qin Feng! You managed to woo someone as proud as Ji Huang’Er right under everyone’s noses!"
With a flash of red light, a red-browed youth with a waggish expression appeared at Qin Feng’s side.
"Oh, Junior Brother Chi Ling’Er. How did the third round of the competition go?"
Qin Feng asked, turning his head.
"How else could it go? We were all eliminated. Zhangsun, Old Lu, Wan Jianyi, and even Senior Sister Qingxue!" When he mentioned Senior Sister Qingxue, a strange softness appeared in Chi Ling’Er’s eyes.
It was a well-known fact among the new students that Chi Ling’Er had a crush on Lu Qingxue.
"Senior Brother Qin, the upcoming battle for the top 100 is all on you and Junior Sister Ji Huang’Er now!" Chi Ling’Er had left out one person: Qian Kai.
It was just that Chi Ling’Er had always looked down on Qian Kai. The fact that Qian Kai had made it into the top 100 was not only surprising to Chi Ling’Er but also made him intensely jealous.
Of course, the most important thing was that Lu Qingxue seemed very curious about Qian Kai.
Chi Ling’Er instinctively disliked Qian Kai, viewing him as a potential rival for her affections.
"Those arrogant experts from the second, third, and fourth years are so full of themselves! Even the Elders don’t think we stand a chance; they’re all focused on those guys. Senior Brother Qin, you have to win back some pride for us!"
"Don’t worry, Junior Brother Chi. I’ll do my best," Qin Feng said, but his brow suddenly furrowed.
Chi Ling’Er’s expression changed as well. A sinister gaze had just fallen upon them.
An elder in a black robe approached from the other side of the lounge. Qin Feng recognized this elder; it was Elder Wu Guanghai, the one leading the team from the Martial God Empire. Their group had clashed with him earlier.
The black-robed elder’s cold, sinister gaze swept over the two of them, and they felt an immense pressure bear down on them.
"It’s that old bastard Wu Guanghai!" Chi Ling’Er sent via voice transmission.
’Don’t use a voice transmission on me! A transmission of your level can’t possibly fool a Martial Arts Giant!’
Cursing inwardly, Qin Feng gave a bitter smile. He had really been dragged into this mess by Chi Ling’Er.
Earlier, Chi Ling’Er had greatly shamed this old man. This elder was sinister and vengeful to a fault; though he showed nothing on the surface, he likely hated Chi Ling’Er to the bone.
And now Chi Ling’Er was walking with him...
The corner of Qin Feng’s mouth twitched.
Wu Guanghai paused mid-stride. He had obviously heard Chi Ling’Er’s voice transmission. He shot a cold glance at Chi Ling’Er, then another at Qin Feng. An intense, murderous intent flashed in his eyes for an instant before vanishing. Then, he turned and walked away.
Qin Feng was certain: the old man had targeted him now, too.
’What a liability.’
’His talent for making enemies is truly astounding!’
