“Master, is this backlash severe? You should have a way to heal them, right?” Linghu Hongfei asked.
“It should be manageable,” Master Liangqiu replied, beginning to set up a formation to treat the group.
“Ugh—”
However, just as Master Liangqiu was healing Linghu Yueyue and the others, Tang Zhenghao and his group suddenly collapsed in pain as well.
At this moment, aside from Chu Feng and Linghu Hongfei, who stood unscathed, every junior present had fallen to the ground.
“What’s happening now? They didn’t even enter the formation, did they?” Lady Fox Immortal asked, looking at Tang Zhenghao and the others writhing in agony.
“It’s normal for them to suffer a backlash, Chengfeng, hurry and treat them,” Master Liangqiu said.
The simple statement “it’s normal for them to suffer a backlash” immediately clarified things for Lady Fox Immortal and the others.
Though Tang Zhenghao and the other juniors hadn’t entered the grand formation set by the Realm Spirit Immortal King, they had exerted considerable effort within the palace formation set up by Master Liangqiu and his peers.
Their breakthroughs today, while primarily thanks to Chu Feng, wouldn’t have been possible without Tang Zhenghao and the others operating the palace formation to channel the power.
So, in truth, Tang Zhenghao and his group had also endured significant power, making it unsurprising that they’d face a backlash.
However, their backlash didn’t stem from the grand formation, but from the one set up by Lady Fox Immortal and the others.
Thus, not only did Liangqiu Chengfeng step in, but Lady Fox Immortal, Wuming Xingyun, and even Master Longxuan also began treating Tang Zhenghao and his group.
After all, the backlash they suffered was because of them.
At this point, Linghu Hongfei returned to Chu Feng’s side, once again clasping his fists, “Brother Chu Feng, congratulations again.”
Earlier, Chu Feng hadn’t responded to his congratulations.
But what he hadn’t expected was that this time, Chu Feng still didn’t acknowledge him.
“Brother Chu Feng, are you alright?”
Linghu Hongfei’s gaze toward Chu Feng shifted slightly.
In truth, the reason he’d congratulated Chu Feng again was because he’d noticed something off about him.
Though Chu Feng wasn’t crying out in pain, he hadn’t responded at all since merging with the Nine Dragons Holy Robe.
Moreover, after fusing with the robe, Chu Feng had turned into a figure of light, his face obscured, let alone his expression.
In reality, Chu Feng was indeed experiencing something unusual—he had entered a dreamlike state.
In this dream, Chu Feng saw an old man.
Though he couldn’t make out the old man’s features, he could feel the overwhelming aura emanating from him, a power so vast it seemed capable of erasing everything.
It was the fearless grandeur of one who stood above heaven and earth.
And the domineering presence of one unrivalled under the sky.
Chu Feng was certain this old man must be the Realm Spirit Immortal King.
He wasn’t merely a Holy Robe Realm Spirit Master, but the legendary Divine Robe, for how else could he possess such power?
Even as a mere remnant, he was this formidable, inviolable.
“The Nine Dragons Holy Robe is no ordinary robe, it was forged by me using the qi of nine dragons, though it contains only a trace, it is far from insignificant.”
“The treasures I craft with my own hands will never be given to the mediocre, if you are an ordinary person, even if you obtain this, you won’t be able to wield it.”
“But if one day you can commune with the nine dragons’ qi within this robe, it will prove you are extraordinary, and then you will understand the true power of this Nine Dragons Divine Robe.”
“Young one, if you can one day achieve greatness, come find me, I’d like to see what kind of person from a desolate star region like Zuwu could break the formation I set and claim the treasure I forged.”
“Remember, my name is the Realm Spirit Immortal King, I’ll be waiting for you at the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.”
“If you ever make it there, show them the mark on your palm, no one in the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion will dare stop you.”
As the Realm Spirit Immortal King finished speaking, he pointed at Chu Feng, a streak of light shot toward him like an arrow.
Almost simultaneously, Chu Feng’s arm lifted uncontrollably, his five fingers splayed, and his palm was struck by the light.
At that moment, Chu Feng felt a burning sensation in his palm, looking closely, a mark had indeed appeared there, an ancient symbol.
Chu Feng didn’t understand its meaning, but the words “Seven Realms Sacred Mansion” had already stirred a tempest in his heart.
How could Chu Feng not know what the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was?
It was the ruling power of the Seven Realms Galaxy, a colossal entity standing tall in the vast martial cultivation world.
It was also the gathering place of the strongest realm spirit masters in that vast world.
But if that were all, it wouldn’t have caused such a profound emotional reaction in Chu Feng.
The reason for his upheaval was that… the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was where his mother was imprisoned!!!
“Senior, are you from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion?”
Chu Feng looked up, his gaze toward the Realm Spirit Immortal King shifting.
But at that moment, the Realm Spirit Immortal King had already vanished.
“I’m such a fool, this is just a remnant left by the Realm Spirit Immortal King.”
“If he’s in the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, he’s too far from me, even if he’s a Divine Robe Realm Spirit Master, he probably couldn’t leave a remnant capable of maintaining a connection with his consciousness.”
As a realm spirit master himself, Chu Feng was well aware of their capabilities.
Back in the lower realm of Zuwu, on the Nine Provinces Continent, he had encountered remnants left by realm spirit masters in their ruins, ones that mirrored their consciousness.
But that was the lower realm of Zuwu.
The lower realm had weaker natural energy, less oppressive force, and a relatively small landmass.
For instance, if Chu Feng returned to the lower realm now, with his current strength, he could appear anywhere he wished in an instant.
He’d possess godlike power, able to do as he pleased.
But that wasn’t possible in the upper realms, or even the ordinary realms.
This was because the density of natural energy varied, as did the pressure it exerted, and the landmass differed too.
Thus, at the same cultivation level, the power one could wield varied across different worlds.
That’s why Chu Feng believed this was just a remnant.
He felt the distance between galaxies was too vast, and even the most powerful realm spirit master likely couldn’t maintain a connection between their remnant and their consciousness across such a span.
“Master Liangqiu, what’s wrong with Chu Feng?”
At this point, Wuming Xingyun had also noticed that Chu Feng hadn’t moved since donning the Nine Dragons Holy Robe, so he secretly transmitted a question to Master Liangqiu.
“I suspect the Realm Spirit Immortal King left something behind, and Chu Feng is experiencing it.”
“Or perhaps he’s simply immersed in the joy of obtaining the Nine Dragons Holy Robe.”
“After all, being a Holy Robe Realm Spirit Master is already extraordinary.”
“And even more so, a Holy Robe Realm Spirit Master who’s claimed the Nine Dragons Holy Robe,” Master Liangqiu replied.
“What Master says makes perfect sense, to possess the power of a Holy Robe Realm Spirit Master at such an age was once my dream.”
“But once I understood the power of a Holy Robe Realm Spirit Master, I stopped holding any hope for that dream.”
“Because that power is truly remarkable, it’s a dream that’s nearly impossible to achieve.”
“Who would’ve thought that, years later, this unattainable dream of mine would be realized by someone else,” Wuming Xingyun said with deep emotion.
His feelings stemmed from his own experience as a Holy Robe Realm Spirit Master, he knew full well just how formidable their power was!!!
