I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!

Outside Tianchi.

"Huh? What is that lady doing? Why is she covering it up so we can't see?" Long Bao'er tilted her head and asked curiously.

Old Black lay on the ground, lazily raising his eyelids, his dog face displaying an expression that said, "You're too young to understand."

Chu Qingge stood motionless, silently gazing at the seven-colored barrier. Her knuckles, gripping the sword hilt, were slightly white. She seemed lost in thought, her cool face expressionless.

"Ahem!" Gu Santong coughed twice, breaking the somewhat strange silence.

He walked up to Long Bao'er, patted her head, and said, "You're just a little kid, don't ask so many questions."

He glanced at the seven-colored barrier, a complex look flashing in his cloudy old eyes, and then waved his hand.

"Alright, everyone, disperse. Don't just stand around here. That kid won't die anytime soon."

He grabbed Lao Hei by the scruff of his neck with one hand, pulled Long Bao'er with the other, and turned to leave.

"Come on, old man, I'll take you to the back mountain to raid bird nests. The bird eggs here smell amazing when roasted."

Chu Qingge did not move; she remained standing in the same spot, like a cold sculpture.

Gu Santong took a few steps, glanced back at her, and sighed.

"Girl, stop looking. That kid just got lucky, it's his fate."

"Some things are a blessing or a curse, and no one can say for sure. There's no use just watching from here. Why don't you go to the Sword Platform and practice your sword skills? Only when you can truly master that Heaven-Slaying Sword can you truly help him."

After saying that, he said no more, picked up the dog and the child, and disappeared around the corner of the cave.

Chu Qingge didn't speak, but took a deep look at the Heavenly Pool shrouded in seven-colored light, then turned around and followed Gu Santong.

Tranquility returned to the heart of the mountain.

Only the seven-colored light curtain remained steadfastly erect, its light flowing and isolating everything else from the outside.

Inside the light curtain, the pool water surged, and the spring scenery was boundless.

……

The Celestial Realm, an unknown place.

There are no stars, no sun or moon here, only a solitary white jade temple suspended in the endless void.

Above the temple, two ancient golden characters are engraved: Divine Court.

Deep within the temple, a blurry figure sat atop a throne atop ninety-nine steps, shrouded in chaotic energy, obscuring his features.

Below him, a powerful figure clad in golden divine armor, whose aura had reached the Saint Emperor realm, was kneeling on one knee, respectfully reporting something.

"Reporting to the Divine Lord, according to the message from the Sea of ​​Fallen Stars, the barrier of the Burial Abyss has been broken, but no aura of abyssal demons has been detected. On the contrary, Chu Feng, the successor of the Human Emperor, and that Primordial Fire Qilin walked out of it safely."

"Oh?" The figure on the throne reacted for the first time. His voice was neither masculine nor feminine, nor did it reveal any emotion, yet it seemed to contain the ultimate truth of the universe, echoing throughout the entire temple. "The Human Emperor's Sword is also in his hands?"

"Yes." The golden-armored expert lowered his head even further. "Not only that, this boy fought against the Holy King and the Holy Emperor in the battle of Yao Guang Holy Land. In the end, he even forced the Sword Palace Master, who was wielding an ultimate holy weapon, to retreat."

A long silence fell over the temple.

After a long while, the blurry figure spoke again.

"interesting."

"A variable who carries the legacy of the Human Emperor and still manages to survive the Burial Abyss of Gods."

"Pass down the order."

"Send the four divine generals of 'Heaven,' 'Earth,' 'Black,' and 'Yellow' to bring this child and that ignorant beast back to me."

"remember."

"It must be alive."

"Yes, sir!"

The golden-armored warrior respectfully accepted the order, and his figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

Inside the temple, deathly silence returned once more.

Only the figure atop the divine throne seemed to cast his gaze toward the celestial realm through endless time and space, letting out a soft, enigmatic laugh.

……

Time flies, and a month has passed quietly.

In the past month, the Heavenly Realm has been in turmoil. Chu Feng's name has spread to every corner, making him an idol worshipped by countless young cultivators and a target of countless established forces.

The person who started all of this seems to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.

The hidden realm of Shushan, inside the mountain where Tianchi is located.

Gu Santong lay listlessly on a blue stone, sipping his wine idly.

Not far away, Chu Qingge sat cross-legged with the Heaven-Slaying Sword lying across her lap, her eyes closed, and sword intent flowing around her, clearly also making the most of her time to cultivate.

Old Hei lay on the ground, fast asleep, while Long Bao'er hugged a top-grade spirit stone the size of a washbasin, gnawing on it with great relish, muttering incoherently to herself.

"Why aren't Daddy and the pretty lady out yet... I've almost finished all my snacks..."

Just then.

boom!!!

A deafening roar came without warning from the direction of Tianchi Lake!

The entire mountainside, along with the entire mountain peak, trembled violently.

The seven-colored light curtain that had enveloped Tianchi for a month was like glass struck by a giant hammer, instantly covered with cracks, and then with a "bang," it completely exploded into a rain of light!

An indescribable aura of terror surged into the sky!

This aura possesses both the vast majesty of a sage and the deathly silence of the abyss, and is also mixed with an incomparably domineering imperial will that reigns supreme over the world!

Three completely different forces, at this moment, merged perfectly in a strange way, forming a pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and the earth, soaring straight into the sky!

"Goodness... we're finally out!" Gu Santong scrambled to his feet, staring at the beam of light with astonishment in his eyes.

Chu Qingge also suddenly opened her eyes, her hand gripping the Heaven-Slaying Sword tightening slightly.

Within the pillar of light, two figures slowly rose into the air.

The first person, dressed in black with black hair, was none other than Chu Feng.

He is now completely different from how he was a month ago.

His injuries had been completely healed. His body, which had been withered from overexertion, had become crystal clear, as if it had been carved from the most perfect divine jade. Every inch of his flesh contained explosive power.

One of his eyes transformed into a pitch-black abyss that devoured everything, while the other became a dazzling chaos burning with golden Dao patterns.

Simply by standing there, the surrounding void seemed to groan under its own weight.

Great Sage!

Moreover, he directly reached the seventh level of the Great Saint Realm in one step!

That wasn't all. Around him, invisible sword intents swirled and danced spontaneously. Each sword intent seemed capable of easily severing galaxies, containing the ultimate mysteries of the sword path.

He actually comprehended his own supreme sword intent while breaking through the realm!

Behind him, Zhuge Yue floated silently.

She changed into an elegant white dress, which made her look even more ethereal and otherworldly. The seven-colored lotus mark between her eyebrows radiated a soft glow, enveloping her in a sacred halo.

Her cultivation level also underwent a tremendous change.

He ascended to the heavens in one step, directly leaping into the realm of a Sage King!

The beam of light gradually dissipated.

In mid-air, Chu Feng and Zhuge Yue regained consciousness.

Eyes facing each other.
