Chapter 327: A Blow
"Especially now, in this Dharma Decline Era, the path of the Martial Dao has become increasingly difficult. Fewer and fewer people are able to even begin cultivating," Chu Feng said, sighing.
This wasn’t Chu Feng being pessimistic; what he said was the truth.
Because this path was truly too difficult. In fact, this path had never lacked prodigies of astonishing talent, but no one had ever appeared who could break through that shackle.
Take Su Miaoke, for example. If it weren’t for the help of his Spirit Stones and Medicinal Liquid, it would have been very difficult for her to improve so quickly.
"Okay, okay. You make it sound so difficult, it’s making me lose my confidence," Su Miaoke said, looking crestfallen.
"Yes. This path is countless times more difficult than you imagine, so you need to be mentally prepared," Chu Feng sighed.
"So what was that move just now? You can control a sword to kill enemies from a distance?" Su Miaoke immediately asked, her curiosity piqued.
The sword was like it was remote-controlled—not only fast but also very precise, which was why she was so curious.
"It’s controlled by the Divine Soul. You can also think of it as Spiritual Power. Although it’s invisible and intangible, it truly exists. You use Spiritual Power—the power of the Divine Soul—to control the sword and attack," Chu Feng said.
"In that case, can I do that too?" Su Miaoke asked curiously.
"Of course you can. First, close your eyes and feel this power," Chu Feng said.
Su Miaoke did as Chu Feng said and closed her eyes.
Then, he reached out and gently tapped the spot between Su Miaoke’s eyebrows.
Su Miaoke instantly understood what Chu Feng meant by Spiritual Power.
"This... This is like my sixth sense, isn’t it? It just seems a lot stronger?" Su Miaoke asked curiously.
"That’s because you’re just starting. As long as you keep practicing, over time, it will naturally grow stronger and your sensory abilities will become more powerful," Chu Feng said.
In fact, when one truly reached his level, they could sense any movement within a radius of several hundred meters.
"I think I get it now. This feeling is amazing," Su Miaoke said with a smile.
"Alright, we should be heading back," Chu Feng said.
’I’ve practiced this Celestial Sword Technique enough for now. I wouldn’t say I’ve mastered it, but at the very least, I’ve reached the Beginner Level.’
’The key to this Sword Technique is the element of surprise.’
’Who would believe I could take someone’s head from hundreds of meters away?’
With Chu Feng’s current strength, there was basically no one left in the entire Martial Arts Realm who could fight him. The crucial part was that it had only been a little over a year since he first set foot on the path of the Martial Dao.
That was the truly terrifying part.
It was a level an ordinary person could never hope to reach.
However, Chu Feng was an exception. Because he possessed the heritage given to him by the God of Wealth, his breakthroughs naturally came in leaps and bounds.
But reaching the Golden Core Realm was a major hurdle. Whether he could cross it would depend on his destiny.
If he couldn’t overcome it, everything would be for naught.
But if he did, his future would be limitless, and he would soar to new heights!
The two of them walked from the back mountain back to Fuhe Village. Their relationship and life together were the envy of many.
"Junior Brother Chu." Not long after the two of them emerged, Bai Xue walked over and greeted Chu Feng.
"Senior Sister? Where have you been off to these past few days? You have to be careful when you’re out having fun. Don’t let some handsome young man whisk you away," Chu Feng said with a laugh.
The two of them had known each other for a long time, so they didn’t need to be so formal when speaking.
Of course, Bai Xue, same as always, ignored Chu Feng’s teasing and said directly, "The Martial Arts Grand Ceremony is about to begin. Master sent word for us to set out in the next few days. The ceremony starts in less than half a month."
"Hm? So soon?" Chu Feng was surprised.
"Yes. This Martial Arts Grand Ceremony is expected to be the largest in recent years. It’s not just for the Martial Arts Realm; officials will also attend. The Kings who preside over the four cardinal directions will be there as well," Bai Xue said.
"All Four Kings are coming?" Chu Feng was shocked.
"Correct. That’s why we need to go and prepare for the Martial Arts Grand Ceremony in advance," Bai Xue said.
’The officials most likely intend to win over some of the Martial Arts Families and Sects. After all, those Four Kings are all at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm. The officials’ strength is quite formidable.’
"Actually, if you really compare, the officials’ strength is greater than any of the other Sects. Did you know they have several dozen experts at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm alone? And the Four Kings are the very pinnacle of the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm!"
Bai Xue explained to Chu Feng.
Hearing this, Chu Feng was utterly shocked.
’So the officials’ power is actually this strong. They usually don’t reveal even a hint of it. They really know how to hide their strength.’
’Throughout the entire country, the existence of Martial Cultivators is kept pretty well under wraps. Ordinary people have no idea.’
’Of course, that doesn’t mean no one knows at all.’
