The Martial Saint Sect's Martial Saint Hall was the main hall of the Martial Saint Palace. It was the symbol of the Martial Saint Palace.
At this moment, all the higher-ups of the Martial Saint Palace's three major factions were gathered here. Each of them had a solemn look on their faces, causing the air in the Martial Saint Hall to freeze.
"This kid deserves to die!" An Elder broke the silence with a cold voice.
"He deserves to die, but how do we deal with him?" This was a rhetorical question.
Yes, how do we deal with him?
With such a heaven-defying artifact protecting him, even an Earth Spirit Realm Elder couldn't do anything to him. He even seemed to have been injured because of it, let alone them.
Do we need a Profound Sky Realm cultivator to take action?
However, the Martial Saint Palace's Old Ancestor was still in seclusion. In order to break through to a higher realm, he hadn't come out yet. Firstly, he couldn't be disturbed rashly. Secondly, if the Old Ancestor were to take action because of this, it would only show their incompetence.
The third point was something that no one was willing to think about. That was, even if the Ancestor made a move, what if it failed?
An Extreme Mortal Realm cultivator couldn't do anything to Chen Zong, and an Earth Spirit Realm cultivator couldn't do anything to Chen Zong. Then, would a Profound Sky Realm cultivator be able to deal with Chen Zong?
Everyone frowned as they pondered over this.
Although the competition between the three major factions was very serious, they would still unite in the face of a major event that concerned the reputation of the Martial Saint Palace.
No matter what, they had to think of a way to get rid of Chen Zong. Only then could they restore the Martial Saint Palace's lost reputation.
"A Transcendent can't do anything to Chen Zong. We have to use a pseudo Transcendent to deal with him."
"Based on Chen Zong's battle prowess, only a powerful Master Stage expert can deal with him."
"Tian Feng is back." The Martial Saint Palace Master suddenly said.
"Mu Tian Feng is back."
"What's his strength now?"
Everyone was startled at first, then asked one after another.
If it was any other time, they would be very happy and express their concern. However, at this moment, they were more concerned about Mu Tian Feng's strength.
They were prepared to use a Grandmaster to deal with Chen Zong, and Mu Tian Feng happened to be a Grandmaster.
"He's still on his way back. We'll know when he returns," said the Sacred Martial Palace Master.
"Three years ago, when Mu Tian Feng left, he was already able to fight against an ordinary Middle Nine Star Warrior with the battle strength of an Early Nine Star Warrior. Now that he has returned after three years of training, his battle strength must have improved significantly." A Palace Master's Extreme Mortal Stage Elder said with a smile.
Mu Tianfeng was the direct disciple of the Sacred Martial Palace Master. He was also ranked first on the Heaven Ascension Ranking in the Ascending Heaven Region.
Three years ago, Mu Tianfeng had the combat power of an early-stage Nine-star, but he could contend with other mid-stage Nine-star with his own strength. Now that three years had passed, he had made some progress, but he didn't know how much he had improved.
But with Mu Tian Feng's talent and potential, the improvement would be obvious.
It was common knowledge that the later stages of cultivation would become more difficult. Therefore, there were still some Master Realm experts in the Martial Saint Palace. However, most of them were at the early stage of the Ninth Star Realm, followed by the middle stage of the Ninth Star Realm, and then the late stage of the Ninth Star Realm. As for the peak Ninth Star Realm, there were only two of them in the entire Martial Saint Palace. Currently, there were no Ninth Star Realm experts.
The Ninth Star Realm was not necessarily related to breaking through to the Transcendent Realm.
Simply put, to break through to the Transcendent Realm, one had to open one's aperture and comprehend a complete True Meaning.
The Minor True Meaning was only a component of a True Meaning.
In order to break through to the Transcendent Realm faster, some pseudo-Transcendent Realm cultivators would only focus on comprehending the Minor True Meaning of a single True Meaning, striving to fully comprehend it and combine it into a True Meaning in order to break through to the Transcendent Realm.
There were also pseudo-Transcendent Realm cultivators who would choose to comprehend the Minor True Meaning as much as possible before comprehending the True Meaning to break through to the Transcendent Realm. Doing so meant that it would take longer and more effort, but it also had a greater benefit, which was that after breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, one would become more outstanding.
To put it bluntly, it was a kind of consolidation.
The level of the Master Stage was a sign of stability.
In the Grandmaster Realm, the higher one's combat power was, the more astonishing their consolidation would be, and after breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, they would become even stronger. However, not all pseudo-Transcendent Realm cultivators had the potential to consolidate their strength, nor did all pseudo-Transcendent Realm cultivators have the desire to do so.
The transformation of one's life essence and the leap in strength of a Transcendent Realm cultivator was extremely attractive to anyone.
On top of that, sometimes a breakthrough required an opportunity, and if one didn't seize the opportunity, who knew when the next one would come?
The scarcity of temptation and opportunity led many Grandmasters to choose to break through.
A few days later, Mu Tian Feng set foot on Saint Martial Mountain.
"Hahahaha, I'm back," Mu Tian Feng's laughter rumbled like thunder, resounding throughout Saint Martial Mountain.
"Tian Feng, Su Lai Main Hall." A magnificent and overbearing voice rang out, causing the laughing Mu Tian Feng to be startled. Immediately rubbing his nose, Mu Tian Feng's figure shot out like a bolt of lightning towards Saint Martial Mountain's Main Hall.
As soon as he entered the main hall, Mu Tian Feng was surprised because there were many more people inside.
Everyone's eyes fell on Mu Tian Feng, causing him to feel a chill run down his spine. Not everyone could withstand the stares of so many Transcendent Realm masters, especially the sharp gazes of so many Transcendent Realm masters, as if they wanted to see through him.
Mu Tian Feng suddenly felt his scalp go numb.
"Tian Feng, how strong are you now?" Saint Martial Palace's Palace Master asked directly.
"I should be at the peak of Nine-Star," Mu Tian Feng said after thinking for a while.
"Palace Master, we can't be careless about this matter. This Elder suggests that we let the peak Nine-Star Grandmaster fight Mu Tian Feng," An Elder suggested.
"Good." The Palace Master agreed immediately, "Tian Feng, bring out your full strength. This matter concerns the prestige of Saint Martial Palace."
There were two peak Nine-Star Grandmasters in Saint Martial Palace. They were usually in secluded cultivation, trying to find an opportunity to break through to the Transcendent Realm. With their accumulation, once they broke through to the Transcendent Realm, their cultivation would increase rapidly for a period of time, far surpassing ordinary Extreme Mortal Realm masters.
This peak Nine-Star Grandmaster looked very old, but his old age was just his expression. Once he broke through to the Transcendent Realm, he would immediately transform and become younger.
Without saying much, he attacked directly.
"Good," Mu Tian Feng said excitedly. With a shake of his arms, a gust of wind whistled and lightning burst out.
A fierce battle unfolded. Facing a peak Nine-Star Grandmaster, Mu Tian Feng also used his full strength and attacked to his heart's content.
After half a quarter of an hour, the two sides were evenly matched, but Mu Tian Feng seemed to be getting more and more excited and stronger as he fought, gradually suppressing his opponent.
After a quarter of an hour, the old man was already at a disadvantage.
"That's enough," Saint Martial Palace's Palace Master said. The outcome was clear. Mu Tian Feng was indeed stronger than his opponent.
…
"Tian Feng, this is the situation," Saint Martial Palace's Palace Master explained what happened.
"Don't worry, Master. I will definitely make him kneel and repent," Mu Tian Feng's face was full of anger. His eyes were cold, as if there was a storm raging in them.
A mere disciple who was expelled by a small Sect from the Outer Realm dared to provoke Saint Martial Palace.
This was intolerable.
Mu Tian Feng was a disciple of Saint Martial Palace, a direct disciple of Saint Martial Palace's Palace Master. He was vaguely called Young Palace Master and had long regarded Saint Martial Palace as his home.
He couldn't tolerate someone who dared to provoke Saint Martial Palace and kill so many of their disciples.
At a secluded hill, a figure was rapidly approaching. He then stopped and scanned the area with his sharp eyes, searching carefully.
A moment later, he found a trace and directly attacked.
Amidst the whistling sounds, a gale roared and bombarded the hidden cave entrance, directly breaking it. Then, a gale blew into the cave through the passage.
Chen Zong, who was cultivating in seclusion, sensed the gale the moment the cave entrance was destroyed. Fortunately, he wasn't absorbing Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi, but comprehending Minor True Intent and sword arts, so he didn't receive any obvious disturbance.
The gale's power was astonishing. It was compressed into the cave's passage, causing a series of terrifying rumbles. It seemed as if the cave was going to collapse, and Chen Zong was going to be torn to shreds.
However, the moment the gale approached Chen Zong, the Sky Tower's shadow appeared, and the gale disappeared without a trace.
Without any hesitation, Chen Zong immediately rushed out of the cave. Otherwise, he would be buried alive. Although nothing serious would happen to him, it would still be troublesome.
As soon as he appeared outside the cave, Chen Zong's gaze locked onto the figure.
Extreme Mortal Realm!
This person was an elder of Saint Martial Palace.
Although Chen Zong's whereabouts were well-hidden, the Saint Martial Palace still managed to find him after a thorough investigation. Therefore, this Extreme Mortal Realm elder had rushed over.
"Saint Martial Palace, show me what you've got," Chen Zong stared at the elder and said unhurriedly.
"Catch." The Extreme Mortal Realm elder only said two words. He was worried that he wouldn't be able to control his anger, but he couldn't do anything to Chen Zong. Therefore, he directly threw out a scarlet post that looked like it was dripping blood.
The post flew towards Chen Zong at extreme speed, but Chen Zong flicked it with his finger. With a subtle control of his power, the post stopped in front of him and automatically flipped open.
With a single glance, Chen Zong finished reading the contents of the post. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The content of the post was a challenge.
The Saint Martial Palace would send out a Master Realm expert to have a life and death battle with him. This battle would be the end of the grudge between the two sides.
The location of the battle was also very interesting. It was the Life and Death Arena in Ascension City.
A life and death battle in Ascension City's Life and Death Arena would undoubtedly be fairer. At least, Chen Zong wouldn't think that the Saint Martial Palace had made all kinds of arrangements to kill him in one go.
In fact, if the location of the life and death battle wasn't in Ascension City, Chen Zong would hesitate. After all, the Saint Martial Palace might make all kinds of arrangements to deal with him in the name of a battle. However, if it was in Ascension City, it would undoubtedly be safer.
"A Master Realm life and death battle?" Chen Zong held the post and pondered. As for the Saint Martial Palace elder, he had already run away without a trace.
"If that's the case, then let's end this grudge." Chen Zong muttered to himself.
This was a stage where one could advance by leaps and bounds. Chen Zong also wanted to cultivate properly and transform his active potential into strength. He would settle the grudge that needed to be settled first.
