Abandoned Sea The wind has risen again.
Amidst the chaotic waves, four figures emerged, cutting through the storm to reach the edge of Abandoned Sea.
"Congratulations to the three of you on your promotion to Great Achievement!"
"Congratulations to Group Leader for advancing in strength."
After ten years of secluded training on Snake Island, Zeng An and the others had all successfully reached the Great Perfection Stage, while Xu Feng had also completed his upgrade in Earth Element. However, the three were unaware that Xu Feng was practicing Five Elements Cultivation and thought he had simply improved his cultivation level.
Han Lei said, " Group Leader, we three will return to Zheguo to gather information. Let's meet here again in a year to determine our next steps. How does that sound?"
Xu Feng replied, "No, you three should return to Zheguo and come back here in thirty years."
"Thirty years later?"
Xu Feng affirmed, "That's right. I still need thirty years of cultivation, and I will also return to Zheguo then."
Zeng An expressed concern, "But Wuwei Academy is powerful. If Group Leader appears recklessly, it could attract trouble."
Xu Feng assured them, "I have my own methods."
He took out three spirit stones, left his mark on them, and handed them to the three. "When you go to Koukou Group, give these spirit stones to any one of the three Vice Leaders. They will understand."
The three accepted the spirit stones, and Xu Feng continued, "I appoint you as the Guardian of Koukou Group. When you return this time, do not make a fuss. It’s best not to enter Koukou Group, but rather cooperate from the shadows. For any major issues, try to postpone them until I return in thirty years; we must ensure the safety of Koukou Group first."
Speaking as the Group Leader, Xu Feng conferred titles upon the three as sect Guardians, and they bowed in obedience.
After discussing matters regarding Koukou Group, Xu Feng took out all the spirit stones from Heibai Zi and distributed them among the three as operational funds. Although the three had a fair amount of spirit stones, it was far less than what Heibai Zi possessed.
After the three left, Xu Feng flew into the Abandoned Sea and returned to the underground cave of Snake Island once again.
Over the past decade, occasional cultivators flew over the sea surface, but they merely glanced quickly and did not dare to linger, failing to discover any traces. The Great White Shark had not returned here either.
During these ten years, the three successfully advanced to the Great Perfection Stage. Xu Feng actually achieved a breakthrough in Earth Element in just eight years, spending the remaining two years on the Sorrowful Technique.
In those two years, progress in the Sorrowful Technique was minimal, but it allowed Xu Feng to discover a significant benefit: the stealth function of the Sorrowful Technique.
Powerful mental strength could not only be used for soul attacks but also to conceal one's own aura, far surpassing Yang She's Hidden Spirit Technique.
It was this discovery that gave Xu Feng the confidence to consider returning to Zheguo. With the concealment provided by the Sorrowful Technique, Xu Feng could easily evade detection by Wuwei Academy, even from those at the Late Stage of Great Achievement.
With three Guardians at the Great Perfection Stage, the safety of Koukou Group was temporarily assured. Over two hundred years had passed, and it was uncertain whether Koukou Group still existed; he hoped that Han Lei and the others would bring back good news.
Xu Feng sat in Serpent King's Hall, fully focused on breaking through to Gold, Wood, and Water elements.
With a unique advantage in Control Technique and the support of Fire Element One Star and Earth Element, Xu Feng's cultivation progressed remarkably well; it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as rapid progress.
Twenty years later, Xu Feng completed his advancement in Gold, Wood, and Water elements.
With all five elements gathered, Xu Feng's strength increased once again.
In the next ten years, utilizing the all-encompassing nature of Control Technique, he spent five years effortlessly mastering Great Strength King Fist and Purple Hand Seal to their peak. Once perfected, a single punch from Great Strength King Fist could send flying experts at the level of Power King.
In the remaining five years, Xu Feng emerged from Serpent King's Hall and went on a rampage around Snake Island.
The power of Butcher's Blade was fully unleashed; where he had previously carved away a quarter of Snake Island, now with just a single stroke, Xu Feng could slice away an entire layer of Snake Island, quadrupling its power.
Golden Law Bow unleashed a powerful arrow, piercing through Snake Island.
The strongest Gale Sword Formation had completely transformed, leaving no trace of its original form. It had fully adopted the sword control principles of the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin Formation, with swords appearing unpredictably, making it impossible for gods and spirits to foresee. The number of swords increased from eighty to one hundred and twenty.
Xu Feng only had forty Supreme Flying Swords in hand, unable to showcase the grandeur of one hundred and twenty Flying Swords. He could only continue to cultivate these forty swords, and the sword control mantra had already shifted from the Gale Sword Formation to the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin Formation.
The beasts near Snake Island were killed in droves, fleeing in terror, with those who ran slowly being slain on the spot.
A royal-level Sea Wolf emerged from its cultivation, furious at Xu Feng's reckless rampage.
This Sea Wolf was a neighbor of Serpent Beauty, and both beasts were evenly matched, often clashing with each other. As Xu Feng slaughtered his way from the territory of the serpent demon into the domain of the Sea Wolf, it was natural for the Sea Wolf to retaliate.
The speed of the Sea Wolf was much greater than that of Serpent Beauty, and its striking power was also superior. The serpent demon could contend with it thanks to the divine ability “Entangling Force,” but unfortunately, it could not use this ability in the cave before being defeated by Xu Feng.
Instead of using the Wings of the Strange Dragon, Xu Feng chose to confront the Sea Wolf head-on.
First, he unleashed a barrage of long-range shots with the Golden Law Bow, then lunged forward to engage in close combat with the royal-level Sea Wolf using the Butcher's Blade. They fought fiercely in the water for three nights without a clear victor, while the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals under the Sea Wolf were repeatedly eliminated by Xu Feng, leaving the Sea Wolf dizzy with rage.
By the fourth night, there were no other beasts left in their battleground, and Xu Feng's strength had been thoroughly tested.
“Hundred Sword Kill!”
Forty Supreme Treasure Swords flew out, and the nearly exhausted Sea Wolf could no longer withstand them. Unlike Serpent Beauty, it did not possess such tough scales. The forty swords that had surged in power descended simultaneously, piercing through the body of the Sea Wolf, leaving eighty bloody holes.
“Roar!” The Sea Wolf let out a reluctant wail before perishing.
Xu Feng collected the beast core from the Sea Wolf and returned to the Serpent King's Hall.
One month after hunting the Royal-level Sea Wolf, Xu Feng flew away from Snake Island and arrived at the island in the Chaotic Sea where they had agreed to meet.
After waiting for ten minutes, Lu Zhongxiang hurriedly arrived, but Han Lei and Zeng An were nowhere to be seen.
"Group Leader, you..."
After thirty years apart, Lu Zhongxiang felt that Xu Feng's strength had increased, yet he couldn't pinpoint exactly how much stronger he had become.
"Where are Han Lei and Zeng An?" Xu Feng asked.
Lu Zhongxiang replied, "Han Lei is in Liuxiang Kingdom, and Zeng An went to Redwood City. Wuwei Academy has set up some spies in Raging Sea, so having all three of us come together would attract attention. That's why I came alone this time."
Then, Lu Zhongxiang began to recount the events that had transpired in Zheguo over the past three hundred years.
After Xu Feng severed Jueqingzi's head, he fled overseas. The Three Great Kings sent people to pursue him, but a month later, only Power King, Gun King, and the severely injured Walker returned. Once this news spread in Zheguo, it immediately caused a stir.
Wuwei Academy had nearly a hundred members, but only three returned. The Demon Hunter and Heibai Zi had both gone missing, and even the strongest Blade King Mo Wenwei was unaccounted for.
At first, Wuwei Academy tried to cover up the incident with vague statements. However, as time passed and they could no longer hide the truth, they had to admit that during the pursuit of Xu Feng, they encountered Royal Beasts. More than ninety cultivators, including Blade King and Demon Hunter, perished in that encounter. The notorious Koukou Group leader Xu Feng was also said to have been killed by the beasts, receiving his just deserts.
At that time, Xu Feng was only at the Divine Separation Late Stage. No matter how thick-skinned Wuwei Academy was, they couldn't claim that Xu Feng killed Blade King; it had to be attributed to the beasts' rampage. They twisted the narrative to frame Koukou Group for colluding with the beasts and murdering Wuwei Academy's disciples, demanding accountability from Koukou Group.
Not long after Power King returned, he led a group into Liuxiang Kingdom and advanced on Bailu Mountain with the intent to eradicate Koukou Group for the sake of the people.
Unexpectedly, they encountered Yi Jiuzhou, who had just emerged from seclusion. After Xu Feng refined the Ice Fire Blade, Yi Jiuzhou had been in closed-door training. He missed the battle at Jumping Fish Island but miraculously advanced to Great Perfection Stage during Xu Feng's great war against Jueqingzi, becoming Liuxiang Kingdom's first Great Achievement Stage Cultivator.
At that time, Power King brought along Soul Chaser, Medium, and Broken Backer from the Five Masters and vowed to annihilate Bailu Mountain completely.
Yi Jiuzhou had just been promoted when he single-handedly defeated the Three Types of Wuwei Academy. The Power King, furious and embarrassed, wanted to take matters into his own hands but was stopped by the cultivators from Li Hua Palace who arrived upon hearing the news.
After Xu Feng escaped, Cai Shujun returned to New Moon Sect and brought along a Mid-Stage of Great Achievement expert from Li Hua Palace, Du Qiniang. Du Qiniang intercepted the Power King, who dared not confront her directly and pretended to retreat, but he took Lin Fangxin, who was working in Zheguo, hostage.
Lin Fangxin was held captive in the Power King's Redwood City. The Power King declared that either Xu Feng's corpse must be brought in exchange or a Dao Artifact. Xu Feng had killed Jueqingzi and colluded with demonic beasts to slay dozens of disciples from Wuwei Academy; thus, the Power King felt justified in taking down a Vice Leader.
Knowing he was powerless to rescue Lin Fangxin, Yi Jiuzhou secluded himself once more, focusing solely on his martial arts training.
Gao Jingsong utilized Xu Feng's connections to reach out to various Major Sects but ultimately could not mount a rescue due to various reasons.
The battle at Jumping Fish Island concluded with Xu Feng's disappearance and the heavy losses suffered by Wuwei Academy.
As a result of this battle, Xu Feng gained notoriety, but unfortunately, the hero was no longer present.
Wuwei Academy failed to eliminate Koukou Group and only managed to capture Lin Fangxin. In a fit of anger, the academy's head, Su Ji, issued a stern warning: anyone from Koukou Group who dared to step into Zheguo would be killed without mercy!
Both Pingdao Sect and Li Hua Palace secretly protected Koukou Group but also refrained from allowing its members into Zheguo.
Cai Shujun, hailing from New Moon Sect, could not save Lin Fangxin. In her fury, she teamed up with Ye Qiongyao to storm Lianyun Mountain Range and uprooted Xiaoyao Sect, which had previously exposed Xu Feng's identity. Overnight, Xiaoyao Sect was expelled from Xian Dao.
Gentle as water, Cai Shujun gained a fearsome reputation after this battle and became known as the second Tu Qiongyao. A century later, both she and Tu Qiongyao advanced to the Great Perfection Stage, making them even more intimidating figures.
During the over two hundred years that Xu Feng was trapped on Snake Island, five Great Perfection Stage experts emerged from Liuxiang Kingdom: Yi Jiuzhou, Hua Wanduo, Qiu Wuling, Cai Shujun, and Hua Du.
Due to his eagerness for success, Chu Wushang, the leader of New Moon Sect, died when his Yuan Ying exploded during his promotion to Great Achievement. He Jingying succeeded him as the sect leader and became the first female head of New Moon Sect.
"Zeng An wants to rescue Lin Fangxin?"
Lu Zhongxiang said, "Zeng An is gathering information in Redwood City, and there hasn't been an opportunity to act yet. Han Lei has set up a Mountain Guardian Formation at Bailu Mountain and has been secretly protecting us."
Xu Feng gazed into the distance and said calmly, "Let's go back to Zheguo and rescue Lin Fangxin."
Lu Zhongxiang replied, "Group Leader, there may be an ambush in Redwood City, intentionally drawing you out. It might be better to wait a little longer..."
"That's not necessary; I know what I'm doing."
Lu Zhongxiang then asked, "Should we invite Cai Shujun to join us?"
"What does that have to do with her?"
Lu Zhongxiang grinned mischievously and said, "According to what the Group Leader has with her..."
"Get lost!"
