In August, the weather became incomparably hot. All of Bugu Mountain seemed to have turned into charcoal. The plants on the mountain were constantly evaporating from the heat, and even the branches were beginning to droop.
Bugu Mountain was the place where Cangnan Gong Xu Jiantao had died in battle. Now, countless craftsmen were moving wood up the mountain. A long time ago, Qin Yin had ordered the construction of an ancestral hall for Xu Jiantao on Bugu Mountain. Now that the money had finally arrived, construction could begin.
On the mountain peak, Lin Xun, Zhang Wei, Guan Xing, and the others were wearing robes and armor. They were herding their horses on a flat grassland. Further away, a person was sitting on a giant rock. It was Feng Jixing, who was cultivating the Martial God Technique.
"Damn, the weather is so hot that I'm dying."
Zhang Wei took off his armor as he said, "It's such a hot day, yet the commander is sitting so high up to cultivate. Isn't he afraid that the hot rocks will burn his buttocks?"
Lin Xun couldn't help but laugh. "Do you think the commander is you? The commander's cultivation is so much stronger than yours and mine. This temperature is nothing to him. "
Luo Yu frowned. "Have you realized that ever since the commander started cultivating on the mountain yesterday, the temperature on Bugu Mountain has increased significantly? Today, it's almost impossible to stay here."
Zhang Wei was taken aback. "You mean … it was the commander who turned Bugu Mountain into a furnace?"
"I'm just saying that it's possible."
"…"
Everyone looked at Feng Jixing in the distance. They saw him sitting there like a stone statue, not moving at all. His brows were slightly furrowed, but there seemed to be something strange around him.
That's right, there was something strange.
The wind began to blow. Although it was only a gentle breeze, it made everyone feel a boundless coldness and violence.
In the blink of an eye, the wind became stronger and stronger, causing many branches on Mount Bugu to snap. Even a royal flag nearby had been snapped. Everyone's faces paled, and Luo Yu shouted, "Everyone, hide behind the rocks to avoid the strong winds. Quick!"
The craftsmen all dodged.
Zhang Wei and the rest, on the other hand, circulated their Dou Qi to resist this gust of wind. All of them were still looking at Feng Jixing. Everyone knew that this kind of change in heaven and earth was definitely caused by someone, and the person who could cause this kind of change in the laws of wind was probably only him.
Sure enough, an invisible force pulled Feng Jixing's body into the air. Beams of golden light condensed into a huge image of a deity. It was a dharma body. About half a minute later, the dharma body descended from the sky and entered Feng Jixing's body. Thunder rumbled in the air as the Heavenly Melody Scroll slowly unfurled. Goddess Nuwa's dharma body appeared. She looked at Feng Jixing with a gentle gaze. "Feng Jixing, you are upright, courageous, and decisive. Now that you have gained the approval of the Heavenly Melody Scroll, you will be granted a second-tier superior god dharma body. You will be given the title 'God of Wind'. You will wield the Heavenly Dao of Wind and be granted the ability to control the wind. May you uphold the Heavenly Dao and continue to fight for the world!"
Feng Jixing's body was enshrouded in bright golden divine light. He slowly knelt on one knee in the air and said respectfully, "Thank you, Goddess Nuwa. Feng Jixing will never bring shame to the Heavenly Dao of Mahayana!"
Nuwa smiled from ear to ear. Her dharma body slowly dispersed.
Feng Jixing jumped down from the clouds. The two sabers at his waist clanked against each other.
Luo Yu, Zhang Wei, Guan Xing, and Lin Xun quickly knelt down. They cupped their fists and said, "Greetings, Commander, greetings, Righteous God!"
Feng Jixing nodded happily. "No need to stand on ceremony. Since this is the case, I'll be leaving too."
Zhang Wei was stunned. "Commander, you're leaving just like that?"
"Yes, we don't know what's happening in the Heaven Realm. Above the Shattered Cauldron Realm is the Heaven Realm. If the Heaven Realm is damaged, all of us will be damaged. Moreover, Yu, Her Highness Yin, and Princess Xi might need my meager strength."
"Then … what about the Shattered Cauldron Realm? What about the Celestial Pole Continent? Commander, once you leave, what about these twenty-one provinces?"
"Guo Huaili has already sent people from the Congress to take over the government affairs of the Celestial Pole Continent. Rest assured. You just need to restrain the troops under you." Feng Jixing nodded. "I'll inform Guo Huaili and let him manage this land carefully. If he oversteps his boundaries, I can descend to take his head at any time."
"Then we can rest assured." Lin Xun smiled cheerfully.
Feng Jixing nodded. "Then let's do it this way. The four of you will be in charge of the various armies of the Celestial Pole Continent. You must obey my orders. Otherwise, I will descend to teach you a lesson!"
"Yes, Commander!"
The four of them laughed.
"Then, I should be leaving too."
Feng Jixing raised his head and looked at the sky. Suddenly, with a whistling sound, his body turned into a tempest and soared into the sky. Suddenly, the sky darkened, and the tempest broke through the golden Heavenly Gate. Feng Jixing's body turned into rays of light and entered the Heavenly Gate. Thunder roared and lightning flashed. Strong gales blew, and the world was in a state of turbulence. This lasted for close to two minutes before it stopped. After it stopped, it immediately became calm again.
The power of gods was always so hard for mortals to reach.
Zhang Wei looked at the sky and licked his lips. "I wonder if I, Old Zhang, will also be able to ascend to become a Righteous God one day and live for ten thousand years …"
"Then how worthless would Righteous Gods become?" Luo Yu teased.
"Old Luo, you brat!"
Zhang Wei's palm landed on Luo Yu's shoulder, causing him to break out in cold sweat. "I, Old Zhang, am at least stronger than you!"
Luo Yu grinned. "Brute, let's go. Let's go down the mountain and return to our respective territories to take charge of the military affairs. We need to stabilize the military affairs of the various provinces before the news of Commander's ascension spreads."
"Mn!"
… …
In the Eastern Heaven Realm, a muffled thunder sounded in the sky above the Hall of Great Accomplishment. It was as if a hole had exploded in the sky. Following that, a storm began to swirl around as the power of the Mahayana Heavenly Path surged over.
Ziyao stood in the main hall, the corner of her mouth curled into a beautiful arc. She said, "Our Mahayana Heavenly Path Wind God is here!"
On the side, Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi smiled knowingly. It was very rare that Feng Jixing could actually comprehend the Mahayana Heavenly Path so quickly in this day and age where it was hard to find a Mahayana Heavenly Path God. His talent was indeed not to be underestimated.
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor had gone to the Northern Heaven Realm to return the remains of the Winter God's Treasured Mirror and would not be back for a while. As compensation, he had to help the Northern Heaven Realm resist Mara's army for a while. Therefore, the Eastern Heaven Realm was now under the control of Ziyao, Qin Yin, and Tang Xiaoxi.
"Swoosh!"
A bolt of lightning condensed into a human figure in the sky, surrounded by raging winds. It was the figure of Feng Jixing. Even the armor he was wearing was the armor of the Qin Empire's Marshal.
"Brother Feng, you're here!" Qin Yin had already changed the way she addressed him. After all, this was the Heaven Realm, and Qin Yin would be Lin Muyu's wife in the future. Therefore, it was natural for her to change the way she addressed him.
Feng Jixing turned around and landed on the glazed tiles of the Hall of Great Accomplishment. He knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "Feng Jixing pays his respects to Your Highness Yin and Princess Xi!"
"There's no need to stand on ceremony!"
Qin Yin smiled and said, "This is the God Realm, no longer the Shattered Cauldron World. Our original identities are no longer the same. Brother Feng, you can just call me Xiao Yin. You don't have to call me Your Highness anymore."
"This …" Feng Jixing hesitated for a few seconds and stammered, "Xiao Yin … Sigh, forget it. I'll just call you Your Highness Yin. Your Highness can call me whatever you want. Anyway, I, Feng Jixing, can't change the way I address you."
Tang Xiaoxi giggled, "Xiao Yin, let him be. Brother Feng has always been like this."
"En."
At the side, Ziyao said, "Feng Jixing, since you've been conferred the title of Wind God, I wonder what the Mahayana Heavenly God Power that you've mastered looks like. Can you demonstrate it to me so that I can confirm what kind of position in the God Realm I'll give you?"
Feng Jixing was stunned. "Why? Do I need to demonstrate my talent for the position in the God Realm?"
"Of course. It's the same everywhere. Those who are suitable for offense will be the commander, and those who are suitable for defense and support will be in another position. What about you? What's your ability?"
Ziyao's eyes lit up. Obviously, she wanted to know how capable Feng Jixing, the Wind God, was.
Feng Jixing nodded and smiled. "Actually, I don't know how strong my ability is now. However, if Fairy Ziyao wants to see it, let's see it together!"
Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi also watched from the side with anticipation. Besides, Qu Chu, Sun Feng, Qing Ping, and the others also watched from afar. No one knew how capable Wind God Feng Jixing was, but it would be clear soon.
…
"Swoosh!"
Feng Jixing stood majestically in the Hall of Great Accomplishment. He opened his palms slightly, and wisps of white Qi waves surged in his hands. They looked like compressed gusts of wind. Other than the gusts of wind, there were also small thunderbolts surging in his palms. However, no matter how one looked at it, it looked like a child's game. It was just a toy in his palms.
However, at this moment, Feng Jixing suddenly let out a low roar. Instantly, a beam of light descended from the sky and tore through the clouds. On the distant Spirited Mountain, strong gusts of wind started to wreak havoc. The heavens and the earth turned dark. Thunderbolts fell, and the indestructible gusts of wind even tore apart the hard rocks on the Spirited Mountain. The gusts of wind condensed into invisible Dimensional Wind Blades in the air. Moreover, they covered a very wide area. This was no longer a child's game.
"Oh my god …"
Ziyao opened her small mouth. "What a strong destructive power … It's really a gift from the heavens to the Wind God of the Eastern Divine Realm …"
Feng Jixing suddenly retracted his five fingers. Suddenly, the destructive power of the storm in the distance disappeared as if it had never happened. The power of controlling the wind, how mysterious!
Qin Yin's gaze was gentle. She smiled and said, "It seems that Brother Feng's power is purely offensive. It's extraordinary."
Tang Xiaoxi nodded. "That's right!"
Ziyao said cheerfully, "Wind God Feng Jixing, I confer you the title of one of the Eastern Divine Realm's Marshals. Are you willing to do so? Although … we don't have many God-ranked soldiers right now. "
Feng Jixing smiled. "Of course I'm willing. I'll follow Fairy Ziyao's instructions."
Although he had already obtained great power, Feng Jixing still maintained the humility and caution he had when he was in the Mortal Realm. He cupped his hands and said to Qu Chu, who was in another hall not far away, "Qu, it's been a long time!"
Qu Chu twirled his beard and smiled. "General Feng, it's been a long time too!"
Qin Yin suddenly smiled.
Tang Xiaoxi tilted her head and asked with a smile, "Xiao Yin, what are you smiling about?"
Qin Yin's voice was gentle. "We're only left with Yu and Sister Chu Yao. Previously, we said that our family would reunite in the God Realm. It seems that it's going to happen soon. I just don't know when Yu will come back."
"That's right. That guy, he's still not coming back!"
"Where did Yu go?" Feng Jixing was stunned.
"The Eternal Sword Domain. It's said that he went to search for the strongest power."
"Wow …" Feng Jixing took a deep breath. "I wonder how strong he will be when he comes back …"
