Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

"The True Dragon Ancient Hall has dissipated, and the Dragon Qi here has also grown thin." Ling Fei noticed the changes with a brief scan.

Then, his Heart Spirit stirred, and he submerged it within the Dragon Bone.

During his time in the space where the True Dragon Ancient Hall was located, he had absorbed a massive amount of Dragon Qi, and the Dragon Bone Pen had been nourished as well.

At the same time, the Golden Eagle inside it had also absorbed a great deal of Dragon Qi.

The Golden Eagle's aura was now immense. Its feathers shimmered, and the currents of air coiling around it resembled Dragon Qi, exuding waves of a True Dragon's Might.

Upon closer inspection, its talons had also become much sharper.

SCREECH!

As if sensing Ling Fei's Heart Spirit, the Golden Eagle let out a joyful cry.

'It's already stepped into the Primordial Pill Realm, and it seems to have mutated?' Ling Fei's Heart Spirit scanned it, discovering that the Golden Eagle had successfully solidified its Pill.

Looking more closely, he saw a faint Light Pattern on the Golden Eagle's forehead. The pattern swirled like a small dragon, and on even closer inspection, it looked as if dragon horns were about to sprout. This sight left Ling Fei astounded. A mutated bird was unpredictable, which meant its potential was boundless.

The Golden Eagle had solidified its Primordial Pill within the Dragon Bone Space.

Additionally, it had taken the opportunity to absorb a considerable amount of Dragon Qi, which led to its mutation.

Of course, the Golden Eagle's mutation was not only related to consuming a large amount of Dragon Qi Essence. It was also due to the Spirit Awakening it had received from the Dragon Bone Pen and its absorption of the faint wisps of True Dragon Blood Qi that had seeped into the Dragon Bone Space. Naturally, it hadn't dared to absorb too much—only an almost imperceptible trace.

Even so, it was enough for the Golden Eagle to undergo a fundamental transformation.

"Good." Seeing this, Ling Fei nodded slightly.

'It's a good thing if a mutated Golden Eagle can become stronger in the future.'

"It's time to head back now." After checking the situation inside the Dragon Bone, Ling Fei looked back the way he had come.

"Next, it's time to settle those personal grudges," Ling Fei said in a low voice.

Killing intent surged in his eyes.

This trip to the Falling Star Mountain Range had seemed smooth on the surface, but every step had been fraught with mortal danger. If Ling Fei hadn't been so lucky, he would have died long ago.

Therefore, Ling Fei would show no mercy to the enemies who wanted him dead.

Outside the Falling Star Mountain Range, Master Xuan Ji, Sect Leader Wan, and the others had already left one after another.

However, the major Sects had still left some Cultivators here to wait.

Clearly, they were also very concerned about Ling Fei's safety.

After all, Ling Fei was now hailed as a prodigy. Not only did he have the chance to become a Pill King, but his Martial Arts talent was also heaven-defying. His journey of growth naturally captivated the hearts of all the Cultivators in the Southern Wilderness. As for Sect Leader Yuan and his group, they had been waiting here the whole time, not daring to relax for even a moment.

Originally, many young geniuses from various Sects had come here, also hoping to see Ling Fei.

But Ling Fei had taken too much time fusing with the Dragon Blood, causing many of the geniuses to leave a few days ago.

However, on a mountain peak at the edge of the range, Shangguan Wan'Er, dressed in white robes, still stood as straight and unmoving as a sword.

She simply stared at the mountain range before her, completely motionless.

Beside her was Shangguan Qingmu.

Shangguan Wan'Er was silent, as cold as a sword, but Shangguan Qingmu knew that his cousin cared deeply for Ling Fei in her heart.

Her feelings for Ling Fei were fiery; otherwise, Shangguan Wan'Er wouldn't have remained here waiting for seven days.

The more this was the case, the more worried Shangguan Qingmu became.

In addition, on another mountain peak, a woman stood amidst the clouds.

She was a woman in a long blue dress with light blue hair.

The woman was elegant and otherworldly, like a Divine Maiden hidden among the clouds and mist. When her long hair fluttered, she gave off an unapproachable air.

She was none other than the Lingyun Sect's Little Sword God, Lian Shuang.

Beside Lian Shuang was Fang Yuan, the one with the Red Eagle Bloodline.

'How strange. Senior Sister Lian Shuang is usually completely focused on her Cultivation. She's been in seclusion ever since returning from the Dongze Ruins and even successfully broke through to the Celestial Pill Realm. Logically, she should be consolidating her Cultivation right now. But instead, she's been here waiting for Ling the Pill Master for seven days. So strange.'

Fang Yuan blinked, her heart full of suspicion.

'Could it be that Senior Sister Lian Shuang has taken a liking to Ling the Pill Master?'

She cupped her chin in her hand, her lively eyes blinking as she continuously sized up Lian Shuang, as if trying to read some emotion on the latter's face.

Unfortunately, Lian Shuang's expression remained as indifferent as ever.

Not a single ripple of emotion could be seen on her face; no one knew what she was thinking.

If Shangguan Wan'Er was said to be aloof, at least she still showed some emotion.

But Lian Shuang was truly like an iceberg, so cold and unapproachable.

"Senior Sister Lian Shuang, we've already waited for so many days. Why don't we go back?" Fang Yuan asked tentatively, blinking her eyes.

"If you want to go back, then go," Lian Shuang said with extreme indifference.

She barely even glanced at Fang Yuan, her gaze fixed on the mountain range ahead. No one knew what she was thinking.

'Would a Senior Sister as cold and indifferent as Lian Shuang fall for Ling the Pill Master?' Fang Yuan shook her head.

Just a moment ago, she had thought so.

But now, she quickly dismissed the thought.

'In her opinion, how could someone as coldly beautiful and emotionless as Lian Shuang possibly develop feelings for someone?'

'But then why is Senior Sister Lian Shuang so concerned about Ling the Pill Master?' This made Fang Yuan even more suspicious.

"Hee hee, Senior Sister, do you have a crush on Ling the Pill Master?" Fang Yuan asked with a cunning smile, still full of suspicion.

"A crush on him?" Lian Shuang was taken aback. After glancing at Fang Yuan, she immediately withdrew her gaze, not even bothering to offer an explanation.

Seeing this, Fang Yuan couldn't help but dismiss the possibility.

Shaking her head, Fang Yuan continued to stare ahead.

'I heard Ling the Pill Master killed even the prodigies of the Beiming Sword Sect. I wonder how strong he is now?' Fang Yuan's eyes filled with anticipation.

...

Ling Fei retraced his steps, and two days later, he walked out of the cave.

Soon, he appeared in the line of sight of the Elders from the various Sects.

"It's Ling Fei! He's out!" His appearance immediately caused an uproar.

As the voices rose, the nearby youths also widened their eyes and stared ahead, wanting to see just who this legendary young man was.

"Ling Fei is out?" On the mountain peak, a ripple finally broke across Shangguan Wan'Er's face. She stared ahead with wide eyes.

However, the path ahead was shrouded in mist. Being only at the Profound Pill Realm, she couldn't extend her Spiritual Sense into the Mountain Abyss where Ling Fei was to investigate.

Let alone see the distant scene with her naked eyes.

"He's finally out!" In the Void, upon seeing the young man fly out of the Mountain Abyss, Grand Elder Fang finally let out a sigh of relief.

The Elder beside him also smiled, his eyes narrowed.

Although Ling Fei had defeated the people from the Beiming Sword Sect, the Falling Star Mountain Range was incredibly dangerous. As long as he hadn't emerged, they couldn't feel at ease.

Riding the Golden Eagle, Ling Fei flew across the Mountain Abyss and appeared in the Void.

Instantly, countless gazes converged on him.

'So that's Ling Fei?' Many of the youths stared intently, their gazes fixed on Ling Fei, as if wanting to commit the image of the Southern Wilderness's most talked-about young man to memory.

"This Ling Fei's aura is even stronger than before." In the mountains, the pupils of the Elders from the various Sects who had stayed behind to watch for Ling Fei contracted.

A grave feeling welled up in their hearts.

It had only been half a month, and Ling Fei had gotten stronger again.

Half a month ago, he could already slay geniuses at the Celestial Pill Realm.

'Now that his strength has increased, can he fight a Nascent Soul expert?'

At this thought, the waves stirred in the hearts of the Sect Elders could not be calmed for a long time.
