"This little guy has given me a pleasant surprise."
Chapter 264 Ten Years
Venerable Qinghong looked up in confusion: "What does the Palace Master mean?"
"Just now, his will underwent a transformation."
Xingchen's lips curled into a slight smile.
"Just because he learned that a powerful person had taken a liking to him, he was able to break through his willpower bottleneck in a short time. Is this what a protagonist is like?"
Azure Rainbow Venerable subconsciously ignored the last sentence, his face showing shock: "A transformation of will? How is that possible?"
Xingchen chuckled softly: "You can't believe it? I saw it with my own eyes. That's why I chose him."
His gaze was deep, as if he were pondering something: "The Earthlings are indeed somewhat special. But the only one who could grow to that level in the end is probably Luo Feng. Hong and Thor are also good, but they are ultimately lacking in luck."
At this point, Xingchen suddenly changed the subject: "But since they are all Earthlings, we can bring them under our command in the future."
He was also an Earthling in his previous life, and he still has some attachment to Earth.
This is something I cannot give up.
The Azure Rainbow Venerable was completely confused, but dared not ask any more questions, and simply bowed his head respectfully.
Xingchen snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Venerable Qinghong: "Thank you for your hard work this time."
As he spoke, he casually waved his hand, and a streak of light flew towards Venerable Qinghong.
Venerable Qinghong instinctively caught it, and saw a blue ring appear in his palm. The surface of the ring was covered with complex secret patterns and emitted a heart-palpitating fluctuation.
"This...this is..."
Venerable Qinghong's voice trembled slightly.
"An ordinary treasure called the 'Azure Ring' is perfect for you, as it combines offense and defense."
Xingchen said calmly.
Consider this a reward for your mission.
Venerable Qinghong trembled with excitement and nodded respectfully, "Thank you for the reward, Palace Master!"
He was incoherent and could barely utter a complete sentence.
You have to understand, for someone of his ordinary Venerable status, it would take him an unknown amount of time and effort to obtain even one supreme treasure!
And now, he has obtained the treasure he had always dreamed of just because of a simple message relay mission!
Xingchen waved his hand: "No need for that. From now on, you have an even more important task."
Venerable Qinghong immediately composed himself and listened respectfully.
"First, continue from before, and teach Luo Feng how to cultivate."
Xingchen raised a finger.
"Secondly, I want you to protect him secretly, but don't let him find out."
Venerable Qinghong nodded solemnly: "Your subordinate understands."
"remember."
Xingchen's gaze sharpened.
"Unless it's a life-or-death crisis, a situation where certain death is inevitable, don't intervene. What I want is for him to truly grow, not to be a hothouse flower."
"Your subordinate will heed the instructions of the Palace Master."
Venerable Qinghong responded respectfully, then hesitated for a moment.
"Palace Master, what if Luo Feng leaves Chaos City?"
"Then follow them secretly."
Xingchen answered without hesitation.
"I will give you new instructions before he leaves. Unless otherwise specified, you shall continue to protect him."
At this point, a deeper meaning flashed in Xingchen's eyes: "Of course, as long as you don't die, you don't need to worry about the other injuries. Understand?"
Azure Rainbow Venerable felt a chill run down his spine and immediately understood Xingchen's intention: to temper Luo Feng on the edge of life and death, but not to actually perish.
"My subordinate understands!"
Venerable Qinghong solemnly responded.
Xingchen nodded in satisfaction, then turned his gaze back to Luo Feng's direction: "Go, and remember what I said. Also, don't reveal anything about my existence for now."
"Yes!"
Venerable Qinghong bowed again and then respectfully withdrew. He carefully put the Azure Nether Ring into his body, feeling the perfect harmony between this supreme treasure and himself, and his awe of the stars deepened even further.
"As expected of the Star Palace Master."
Venerable Qinghong sighed inwardly.
“Even the most precious treasures I bestow casually are so perfectly aligned with my laws and principles.”
After Venerable Qinghong left, Xingchen stood alone in the chaotic air currents, her long silver-white hair dancing in the wind.
"Luo Feng."
He whispered to himself.
"Let me see how far you can grow with my intervention."
……
Inside the ancient cultivation residence in Chaos City, Luo Feng sat cross-legged on the rooftop, surrounded by a faint golden aura.
His consciousness was completely immersed in comprehending the "Nine Universes Chaos Stele," and the mysterious trajectory of the "raindrop diagram" kept appearing in his mind.
"No, it's still wrong."
Luo Feng frowned. He had been studying the diagram for more than three months, but he still couldn't fully understand the last crucial change in the diagram.
Just then, the voice of Venerable Qinghong suddenly rang in his mind: "The laws of space are not dead; you must feel their 'breath'."
Luo Feng suddenly opened his eyes and saw that Venerable Qinghong was already standing in front of him, with his hands behind his back.
"Sir!"
Luo Feng quickly stood up and bowed.
Venerable Qinghong nodded slightly: "Show us your current understanding."
Luo Feng nodded, and a blood-red battle blade appeared in his hand. He concentrated and unleashed the blade, drawing a strange arc in the air.
In an instant, the surrounding space rippled like water, and hundreds of phantoms appeared simultaneously wherever the blade passed.
A hint of surprise flashed in Venerable Qinghong's eyes, "In just seven days, you've actually cultivated the 'Myriad Threads Flow' to such a level?"
Luo Feng sheathed his sword and stood respectfully, saying, "Thanks to your guidance last time, Venerable One, I was able to make a breakthrough."
Azure Rainbow Venerable carefully examined Luo Feng, secretly shocked. He had originally thought that Luo Feng's limit was mastering six layers of illusion within seven days, but he hadn't expected him to reach nine!
"Not bad." Venerable Qinghong suppressed his surprise and said calmly, "But your use of spatial laws is still too clumsy. Watch closely—"
With a casual wave of his hand, a stream of azure energy swept through the air. The energy seemed simple, yet it contained incredibly profound fluctuations in the laws of space, as if the entire space itself was pulsating with the energy.
Luo Feng was engrossed in watching.
After receiving guidance from Venerable Qingming, Luo Feng went to the City Lord's Mansion to study the Chaos Stele. This time, his gains from studying the Chaos Stele were much greater than in the original story.
He didn't rush to cross the Heavenly Bridge, but continued his cultivation.
I plan to come back later and conquer several floors in one go.
In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.
After ten years of silence, Luo Feng finally decided to try to cross the Tongtian Bridge again.
Virtual universe, Tongtianqiao plane.
Luo Feng appeared on the teleportation array in the center of the island, his black combat boots making a crisp sound as they stepped on the bluish-gray stone slabs.
He looked around and found the entire island empty, except for the keeper Baffin, who was sitting in a distant pavilion drinking tea.
"Lord Baffin."
Luo Feng walked over quickly and bowed respectfully.
Baffin looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Luo Feng?"
He put down his teacup and looked the young man, who had been silent for ten years, up and down.
"It's been almost ten years, hasn't it? Other geniuses come to try the Heavenly Bridge several times a year, but you've never come even once."
Luo Feng smiled slightly, his short black hair swaying gently in the breeze of the virtual universe: "I'm cultivating, and I don't want to be distracted."
Chapter 265 Tower Climbing
Baffin stood up, circled Luo Feng once, and suddenly reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "Interesting. Ten years have passed, and your aura has become much more restrained. However..."
He narrowed his eyes.
"Why do I feel like you're much more dangerous than you were ten years ago?"
"My lord is joking."
Luo Feng lowered his head modestly, but a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.
"I want to cross the Nine Heavens Bridge, can I go in now?"
Luo Feng asked.
"No one is at Jiuyu Tongtian Bridge."
"The watchman, Baffin, laughed."
"Thanks."
With a single step, Luo Feng left behind a series of illusory figures, while he himself had already arrived on the Nine Heavens Bridge.
