Yi Jiuzhou is a true swordsman. Back during the Wuhua Island Competition, Xu Feng had high hopes for him. Later, when Yi Jiuzhou advanced to the Golden Core stage, he rose two levels in quick succession, gaining immense fame. If he had been given sufficient resources early on, his reputation would have already surpassed that of Hua Du.
Then, Xu Feng took out a pair of Birdhead Monster Shoes and handed them to Lin Fangxin, saying, "These shoes are for you. They are a Supreme Treasure with astonishing speed. Once you wear them, no one in Liuxiang Kingdom will be able to catch up to you."
Lin Fangxin was overjoyed. A Supreme Treasure! He quickly accepted them and said, "Thank you, Group Leader." He was mainly responsible for the Koukou Group's business and often traveled outside. With these shoes, he wouldn't need to rely on the White Eagle from Spirit Beast Manor anymore.
Meanwhile, Gao Jingsong was nearly drooling. One person received a Sword Manual, and another received a Supreme Treasure; he wondered what Xu Feng would give him.
Xu Feng thought for a moment but couldn't come up with anything suitable for Gao Jingsong. Instead, he took out five Supreme Treasure Swords belonging to Xiaoyao Three Elders, Qiao Li, and Fang Wenshan. He handed each of them a sword and gave the extra two to Gao Jingsong, saying, "These are five Supreme Treasure Swords. Each of you can refine one for use. However, these swords have dubious origins; they come from a major power in Zheguo. Do not use them lightly unless absolutely necessary. If I have the chance in the future, I will help you acquire more."
The three of them held their swords in excitement, overwhelmed by emotion. For many years, due to the backwardness of Refining Tool techniques, cultivators in Liuxiang Kingdom had only used spirit tools. It wasn't until nearly two hundred years ago that Xu Feng introduced Zheguo's Refining Tool techniques that they were able to create Superior Magical Artifacts. The idea of possessing a Supreme Treasure was something they had never even dared to dream of.
Thanks to Xu Feng's influence, Gao Jingsong and the others already possessed Superior Magical Artifacts, but this was their first experience with a Supreme Treasure.
Xu Feng then took out all the Martial Arts Manuals from the rings of several Divine Separation Stage Cultivators and let Gao Jingsong choose suitable ones to pass on to his disciples. These manuals were chaotic and included various topics such as Cultivation Methods, Refining Tools, Alchemy, and formations—none of which had high-level materials available in Liuxiang Kingdom. Organizing these manuals would undoubtedly provide a significant boost to Liuxiang Kingdom's Modern Clerk.
Gao Jingsong was skilled in management and could easily see their value.
The five Divine Separation Practitioners also had plenty of spirit stones on hand, especially Fang Wenshan, who had repeatedly organized and led experts from various factions to assist Wuwei Academy and gained numerous benefits. As an elder of Yue Ren Mountain Villa, he had amassed a considerable amount of spirit stones.
Xu Feng took out ten million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones for Lin Fangxin. The Koukou Group was currently thriving; although they didn't lack money at the moment, having more was always beneficial.
After distributing the assets, Xu Feng said, "In ten years, I will have a duel in Zheguo. I will return there soon to handle some matters. You all should focus on your cultivation here; now that Liuxiang Kingdom has abundant Spiritual Energy, it will inevitably attract Zheguo's covetous eyes. If any issues arise that you cannot resolve on your own, do not force it. Wait for my return; if it's urgent and you can't wait, go find A Qi in Beast Wasteland."
"A Qi?" The three were hearing about A Qi for the first time from Xu Feng.
Xu Feng explained, "Two hundred years ago, I cultivated in Beast Wasteland. A Qi is a Royal Sparrow and my senior brother; he was also Jin Liaoyuan's mount back then. Now his strength is close to royal level and is sufficient to deal with Great Perfection Stage experts." This information was no longer crucial; Xu Feng simply shared what had happened back then with the three Vice Leaders.
"Group Leader is Jin Liaoyuan's disciple; many people know this fact but didn't expect he has such an impressive senior brother."
"So it turns out A Qi deliberately intervened during the battle at Cat Ear Mountain ten years ago."
Gao Jingsong said, "How do we find A Qi?"
Xu Feng replied, "You can't go to A Qi's place. First, go to Cliff and find Pangolin. Tell it that I sent you, and it will take you to A Qi." Xu Feng then informed Gao Jingsong of Jin Liaoyuan's location.
In fact, A Qi had the responsibility of guarding Liuxiang Kingdom, so there was no need for them to search; A Qi would be aware on its own.
Xu Feng did not share the details of the duel with the three, and since they knew they couldn't help, they didn't ask.
After Gao Jingsong and the others left, Xu Feng took out Fang Wenshan's Yuan Ying and said, "Sorry for making you wait so long. Now there are some things you need to tell me."
Since being defeated by Xu Feng, Fang Wenshan had been sealed in a bottle. He was aware of many things regarding Xu Feng, and upon hearing Xu Feng speak, he quickly said, "Handsome guy, please don't kill me. I... I won't say anything." It was unclear where he had heard the term "handsome guy."
Xu Feng chuckled and didn't respond further. He knocked Fang Wenshan unconscious with a palm strike and unleashed his true fire over him.
Fang Wenshan struggled a few times before losing consciousness. With Xu Feng's current strength, refining Fang Wenshan was extremely easy, so he didn't bother asking questions and directly refined him, gaining all the information he needed.
After one night, Fang Wenshan was completely refined. He practiced Wood Element Technique, and originally with his spiritual power, he could have helped Xu Feng advance from Early Stage of Spirit Separation to mid-stage. However, now that Xu Feng's Wood Element had also reached mid-stage, his internal demand had suddenly increased. Fang Wenshan's spiritual power no longer seemed as substantial; consuming it only slightly strengthened Xu Feng's Wood Element Spiritual Power.
At the Divine Separation Stage, progressing further became increasingly difficult. Xu Feng was not yet three hundred years old and did not have the same foundation as Qiu Wuling or Hua Wanduo, who had centuries of experience; thus, opportunities for explosive growth were rare.
To advance to Divine Separation Late Stage would require refining a practitioner at Great Perfection Stage.
Fang Wenshan's memories flooded into Xu Feng's mind, unraveling many mysteries.
It turned out that Fang Wenshan was an elder of the Enforcement Hall at Yue Ren Mountain Villa. Under the orders of the master Fang Hua, he assisted Wuwei Academy in completing some unsavory tasks.
Fang Wenshan's previous superior was Silverbeard. After the incident at Sealing Magic Gorge left Silverbeard injured, his superior became Qianlongzi. The purpose of coming to Liuxiang Kingdom this time was to control this newly emerging nation and send some talents from Liuxiang Kingdom to Wuwei Academy to become disciples there.
This also explained why Fang Wenshan did not resort to force against Liuxiang Kingdom upon his arrival.
Qianlongzi entered the Liuxiang Kingdom through a secret path in the Beast Wasteland, establishing a Teleportation Array to bring Fang Wenshan and others in. Qianlongzi remained hidden within the group as a precaution.
Fang Wenshan was unaware of which secret path Qianlongzi had taken.
In Fang Wenshan's memory, he found some information about the Sealing Magic Gorge. Wuwei Academy had long known that Pingdao Sect and Li Hua Palace were collaborating under the guise of training to search for the Sorrowful Technique. With confirmed news this time, it was determined that they had indeed found the Sorrowful Technique.
The Sorrowful Technique was a supreme skill of the demon clan's Heartbroken Ancestor, possessing immense power. A former elder of Wuwei Academy had died at the hands of the Heartbroken Ancestor. To prevent the Sorrowful Technique from leaking out and posing a threat to Wuwei Academy, they dispatched Silverbeard to handle the matter. Silverbeard lived up to expectations, ultimately seizing the Sorrowful Technique at the last moment and killing Xu Ruchu with a single strike.
Yue Ren Mountain Villa willingly acted as a lackey simply for the benefit of obtaining Wuwei Academy's Wuwei Heart Sutra. As long as the people of Yue Ren Mountain Villa cooperated fully, they could acquire the first layer of the Cultivation Method from the Wuwei Heart Sutra.
Over the past two hundred years, the strength of the younger generation in Yue Ren Mountain Villa had significantly increased, and their numbers had also grown due to a new cultivation method derived from the Wuwei Heart Sutra, which was particularly effective for cultivators below the Golden Core stage.
Once Fang Wenshan secured Liuxiang Kingdom, Wuwei Academy would grant Yue Ren Mountain Villa the second layer of the Cultivation Method from the Wuwei Heart Sutra. Fang Wenshan would also be promoted to vice master of Yue Ren Mountain Villa for his contributions.
Unfortunately, all of this fell apart due to Xu Feng and an Assassin in Black intervening, resulting in a complete failure. Not only did they fail to capture Liuxiang Kingdom, but they also lost Qianlongzi, leading to significant losses.
In Fang Wenshan's memory, there was no mention of Xu Feng challenging Silverbeard. To him, it seemed absurd that Xu Feng could kill Silverbeard within a century; such claims were nothing more than nonsense. Although he was present at that time, he dismissed it entirely. Not only did he disregard it, but no one at Wuwei Academy paid attention either; likely even Silverbeard himself had forgotten about it.
Damn it, Xu Feng thought bitterly; his grand oath from years ago appeared to others as mere empty words.
Empty words or not, he would kill Silverbeard within a century.
Thank you. In Fang Wenshan's memory, there was indeed news about Silverbeard.
Silverbeard turned out to be a city lord!
Zheguo has many cities distributed within the Five Lakes area. The Five Lakes are controlled by the top five of Zhenguo Xian Dao. Each lake has numerous cities under its jurisdiction; for example, Light Rain Tower, ranked second in Xian Dao, controls Sword Lake, which includes over ten cities such as Xibai City and Qingyang City.
Each of these cities has its own city lord, each with strength above Great Achievement. Half of the taxes collected in these cities go into the city lord's personal coffers, and from that half, another half is given to their respective sects. Therefore, the more city lords a sect has, the higher its income will be, resulting in city lords living lavishly.
Silverbeard is the lord of a city called Shuangfeng City.
The Five Lakes of Zheguo are controlled by five sects, referred to geographically as: Eastern Flower, Xi Yu, South Valley, North Gate, and Zhong Wuwei. Zhong Wuwei refers to the most prosperous central area of Zheguo, occupied by Wuwei Academy, with the corresponding lake being Yuan Lake among the Five Lakes.
The Yuan Lake region has a total of fifteen cities, each managed by the last fifteen individuals from Wuwei Academy, Three Sovereigns, Four Kings, Five Masters, and Six Disciples. The Three Statues are experts at the Late Stage of Great Achievement from Wuwei Academy, who focus solely on their cultivation and rarely concern themselves with worldly matters.
Shuangfeng City, managed by Silverbeard, is located to the north of Yuan Lake and borders the Pingdao Sect. The city has a population of nearly five hundred thousand and is considered a relatively remote city.
"Silverbeard, it's been a while," Xu Feng thought quickly and devised a plan.
Next, Xu Feng flew into the Beast Wasteland and found the Teleportation Array left behind by Nine Dragon Pool years ago. This teleportation device miraculously survived the recent war in Liuxiang Kingdom. Xu Feng communicated with the guarding beasts to initiate its activation.
The beasts recognized Xu Feng and followed his instructions without question.
Xu Feng used a High-Quality Spirit Stone to enter the Teleportation Array and thought: I need to rebuild another Teleportation Array when I have time; it’s too inconvenient not to have one for entering and exiting. Additionally, I must find out about the passage that Qianlongzi used to enter Liuxiang Kingdom; this will be a hidden danger sooner or later.
The Teleportation Array emitted a white light, and Xu Feng was teleported away.
