After Ling Chen left, the disciples finally came to their senses, their eyes still filled with shock.
Defeating a World Realm first level monarch with the power of the Palace Mansion Realm’s seventh level, it’s truly a world-shaking feat!
Everyone’s gaze couldn’t help but fall on Yang Shen, who stood in the distance.
Feeling everyone’s stares, Yang Shen’s face turned ashen, no longer having the face to stay here.
With a move, he left the place.
It’s likely that this matter will quickly spread throughout the entire pavilion!
"Ling Chen, even though you defeated me, you won’t be able to get your hands on this Divine Bird, Qing Luan!"
Yang Shen sneered inside.
This is Qing Luan, after all!
In the future, it could very well become a Divine Being!
Even with the Pavilion Master’s temperament, could he endure such a temptation?
And what about the other Guardians?
Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but shake their heads.
Afterward, they once again entered the Spiritual Energy River to cultivate.
As for Qing Luan, it was not something they could interfere with.
Better to focus on cultivation!
Ling Chen and Shen Xing walked side by side.
"Young Master Ling, how exactly did you do that?"
Shen Xing asked with a curious face.
Even he could not possibly use any means to dissolve World Power.
He could only cope with it physically.
The fact that Ling Chen was able to dissolve the opponent’s World Power naturally astonished him.
You must understand, the real reliance of a World Realm powerhouse is their World Power.
If he mastered such a Magic Skill, wouldn’t defeating monarchs be a piece of cake?
Ling Chen just smiled, as the Mystic Sword appeared once again.
"Mr. Shen, take a look."
Saying this, Ling Chen handed over the Mystic Sword.
Shen Xing looked puzzled.
He took the Mystic Sword and examined it for a long while.
"What level of Spiritual Weapon is this?"
He sensed that this sword had no master and was not yet refined by anyone.
Ling Chen smiled and said, "I’m not sure myself. I only know that when I solved Yang Shen’s World Power, it was by using the miraculous energy within this sword."
Hearing this, Shen Xing became even more curious.
"Then how do you use this sword?"
He tried to infuse it with Spiritual Power, but found that he could not activate it.
However, he had witnessed Ling Chen launching several attacks with this sword.
"With the power that merges Spiritual Power and Telekinesis, one can activate it!"
He said this hoping to learn some information about the sword from Shen Xing.
After all, Shen Xing had lived in the Central Region before.
His experience certainly wasn’t just limited to what he inherited, unlike Ling Chen.
"Spiritual Power can merge with Telekinesis?"
Shen Xing was completely baffled.
He had never heard of not only the miraculous energy contained within the Mystic Sword, but even the merging of Spiritual Power and Telekinesis.
Spiritual Power and Telekinesis, fundamentally, are two different things.
How could they merge?
Additionally, in this world, cultivators who cultivate both Divine Soul and Spiritual Power are not common.
After all, whether it’s the path of Divine Soul or Spiritual Power, reaching the pinnacle requires an extraordinarily long time.
Even as the holder of the Divine Body, he could not dare claim to cultivate the path of Spiritual Power to its peak.
"It’s that miraculous?"
The Divine Bird Qing Luan on Ling Chen’s right shoulder was also shockingly looking towards Ling Chen.
"Indeed, it is very miraculous. Currently, that’s all I know about this sword. Have you heard anything about it, Mr. Shen?"
Shen Xing shook his head.
Perhaps, the Sect Master of his sect knew.
He had lived in the sect all along and had never seen this sword.
Ling Chen felt somewhat disappointed.
It seemed he could only explore it by himself slowly.
After learning how Ling Chen accomplished the unthinkable feat of dissolving World Power, Shen Xing didn’t continue to follow Ling Chen.
Instead, he returned to his original position and continued his cultivation.
Only Ling Chen and the Azure Luan remained in this place.
"Azure Luan, you did well!"
During their confrontation, it was evident that Ling Chen had not employed his full strength.
Otherwise, if he had gone all out, the Azure Luan would not have been a match for him.
It seemed that Ling Chen truly did not intend to enslave it.
"You want to catch Spiritual Fish for cultivation, right? Alright, leave that to me!"
The Azure Luan left Ling Chen’s shoulder, flying into the sky.
It watched the Spiritual Fish leap out of the water, spreading its wings which suddenly expanded to several meters, then started flapping them wildly.
A gust of wind was instantly whipped up, sweeping towards the Spiritual Fish.
The Azure Luan, favored offspring of the winds, was adept at controlling them.
Thus, catching Spiritual Fish in this way was extremely easy for it.
A series of noises were heard, and on the opposite bank of the river, about fifty or sixty Spiritual Fish were promptly stranded on the ground.
Ling Chen’s eyes lit up.
It had to be said, the Azure Luan’s method of catching fish was terrifyingly efficient.
It was much faster than capturing one or two at a time as he had done.
He too once used his Spiritual Power to create wings, summoning strong gusts.
However, the gusts he generated would disperse the Spiritual Fish into Spiritual Energy.
That’s why he resorted to such a cumbersome method of capture.
"How did you do that?"
The Azure Luan replied with pride, "It’s my natural talent. Besides, this place is what my mother left behind."
Ling Chen was shocked, "You mean to say your mother was indeed a mature Divine Beast?"
replied the Azure Luan with a nod.
Ling Chen was immensely shaken.
No wonder there were such miraculous things as Spiritual Fish; perhaps they were the doing of that mature Divine Bird, the Azure Luan.
Such might indeed be the power of a Divine!
"Where’s your mother then?"
If the Divine Beast Azure Luan were still here, how could it possibly allow the Star Pavilion to occupy this place?
This Dragon Vein had connections to many places, linked with the Star Pavilion’s protective array that covered Azure Luan Peak.
Clearly, the Sect Protection Array was likely drawing its required Spiritual Energy from here.
Upon hearing this, the Azure Luan’s expression dimmed.
After a long time, it finally said, "She is dead."
"Are Divine Beings not said to share the same lifespan as the heavens and earth, and to enjoy eternal spring alongside the sun and moon?"
Ling Chen exclaimed in surprise.
A Divine being was dead?
It was truly staggering.
The Azure Luan gave Ling Chen a contemptuous glance and said, "Divine indeed have long lifespans, but my mother fell by the hand of another Divine."
There isn’t just one Divine in this world.
Cultivators of the King Realm could live for five hundred years, but many fail to reach such age, falling prematurely.
It was the same with Divine Beings.
"Well then, go ahead and cultivate!"
The Azure Luan smiled.
"Alright, thank you very much."
Ling Chen replied, "Oh, by the way, what is your name?"
"Just call me Xiao Qing."
Ling Chen nodded and then flew to the opposite side.
He sat down cross-legged.
Grabbing a lively Spiritual Fish, he tossed it into his mouth.
The Azure Luan on the opposite side was stunned.
Such direct consumption of nature’s spiritual energy was something only their beast kind could do. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ ɴovᴇl(ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt
And yet, Ling Chen, a human, could also cultivate in this manner?
Beasts, with their powerful bodies, dare to swallow Spiritual Energy directly .
But humans, with their frail bodies.
Typically they would circulate Spiritual Techniques, absorb nature’s spiritual energy, and then refine it.
