Qin Feng rolled his eyes and sat cross-legged on the ground to recover his True Essence and Soul Power.
This seemingly simple operation was actually very risky. Only Qin Feng dared to do this. If it was someone else, even if their cultivation was much higher than Qin Feng's, they would never be able to help Jiang Ziyue draw out the cold energy.
This required an extremely high level of control over one's Spiritual Energy and True Essence. Not only could it not harm Jiang Ziyue's Spiritual Energy, it had to attack the cold energy at the right time, forcing the cold energy to counterattack. Then, it had to guide the cold energy into the Dark Fire Phoenix and seal the two energies together with the Eternal Fire.
In order to complete this series of operations, Qin Feng's Soul Power was almost exhausted.
"My Soul is in so much pain!" Jiang Ziyue held her head.
"Bear with it. This is a process you have to go through. Once your Soul gets used to it, it won't hurt anymore," Qin Feng replied stiffly.
Jiang Ziyue pouted as tears welled up in her eyes. Didn't this guy know how to comfort her?
After recuperating for more than two hours, the pain in her Soul gradually dissipated and she felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
"This feeling … is so magical!" Jiang Ziyue was pleasantly surprised.
This feeling was too wonderful. For more than ten years, she had been enduring the pain of her Soul being eroded. Now that she was free, she felt that her condition was better than ever.
"Your divine soul is still very weak. For the time being, you are unable to awaken your divine soul. You can take the fruit that I gave you before and then use it with the medicinal pills that I refined. In about a month, your divine soul should be able to reach the level of awakening. As for whether or not you can awaken it, that will depend on your own fortune." Qin Feng pushed open the door and breathed in the fresh air outside.
Not all warriors could awaken their Soul. A large number of warriors could never awaken their Soul. Those who could awaken their Soul were favored by the heavens.
Jiang Ziyue was almost 20 years old now, and her soul had been corroded by the cold energy. Even though she had soul fruits and elixirs to recover, she had missed the best time to awaken her soul. The chances of her soul awakening were very, very low.
However, Qin Feng did not tell her the cruel truth. Jiang Ziyue had endured so much pain to heal her soul. If he told her the truth now, it would be a huge blow to her.
Moreover, the probability of awakening was very low. There was still a certain possibility.
Suddenly, a voice transmission talisman tore through space and disappeared into the void.
Qin Feng's pupils shrank. "Tearing space, fifth-grade voice-transmitting talisman!"
A second-grade Sound Transmission Talisman could send a voice transmission of a hundred miles, a third-grade Sound Transmission Talisman could send a voice transmission of a thousand miles, a fourth-grade Sound Transmission Talisman could send a voice transmission of ten thousand miles, and a fifth-grade Sound Transmission Talisman could tear space apart!
Qin Feng turned around and looked at Jiang Ziyue's room. "This girl actually has a fifth-grade voice transmission talisman?"
In the distant Tianwu Continent, the space in an ancient palace tore open and a voice transmission talisman floated down.
A young man who was cleaning caught the voice transmission talisman. "Another one. Is a fifth-grade voice transmission talisman free?"
The young man muttered. When he saw who the voice transmission talisman belonged to, his face changed. "Oh my god, the eldest young mistress has sent a voice transmission back!"
"Bang!" A fist appeared out of thin air and mercilessly smashed into the young man's head.
"What are you yelling about? What are you doing!" Yuan Qin snorted.
"Yes, Heng 'er knows his mistake. However, this voice transmission talisman is no small matter. It belongs to the eldest young mistress. The eldest young mistress has left the Tianwu Continent for more than ten years. This time, something big must have happened." Yuan Heng said excitedly.
Yuan Qin glanced at Yuan Heng. "Why are you so excited? What does it have to do with you?"
"I haven't seen the eldest young mistress for ten years. Don't you think I miss her?" Yuan Heng chuckled.
Yuan Qin looked at the voice transmission talisman and said, "I'm going to pay a visit to the Pavilion Master. You stay here and guard!"
Yuan Heng curled his lips. Every time he was asked to guard, he would receive the voice transmission talisman all day long. He was tired of it.
"What's the matter?" The voice of the Thousand Gold Pavilion's Pavilion Master came from the golden light.
"Pavilion Master, I just received a voice transmission talisman from the eldest young mistress. Something big must have happened." Yuan Qin said.
"Oh?
That girl finally sent a letter? "The golden light flickered and the voice transmission talisman in Yuan Qin's hand flew out.
After a long time, a sigh came from behind the golden light. "Let Elder Zhu go and bring Yue 'er back. Also, open the Tianwu Sacred Pond!"
"Congratulations, Pavilion Master. The eldest young mistress' Divine Soul has finally returned to normal!" Yuan Qin knelt on the ground happily.
"You can leave now. Temporarily block this news!"
Yuan Qin nodded. "Yes, Pavilion Master!"
After Yuan Qin left, the man behind the golden light looked up. "What happened? How could someone heal your Divine Soul?"
In the Tianwu Continent, a martial artist broke through the sky and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Qin Feng held the Spirit Stone in his hand. After the abundant Spiritual Qi circulated in his body, it was absorbed and refined by the 18 Martial Veins.
This Spirit Stone was obtained from the Mechanical Puppet. There was only 10% or 20% of the Spiritual Qi left. However, it was enough for a True Energy Realm martial artist to cultivate for a month or two.
However, this Spirit Stone quickly turned white in Qin Feng's palm. The Spiritual Qi rushed into Qin Feng's body like a tide.
After a day, this Spirit Stone, which was enough for a True Energy Realm martial artist to cultivate for a month or two, had completely turned into a pile of powder.
The 18 Martial Veins absorbed Spiritual Qi at a speed far faster than ordinary martial artists. Under Qin Feng's full refining, this Spirit Stone only lasted for a day.
"If I continue to cultivate at this speed, the Spirit Stones on me will soon be used up." Qin Feng shook his head.
He had opened 18 Martial Veins and was indeed strong. However, the resources he consumed were much more than ordinary martial artists.
"Excuse me, are you Young Master Qin?"
Qin Feng had just walked out of the Thousand Gold Pavilion when a martial artist came forward and handed him an invitation.
Qin Feng did not accept the invitation. One who was unaccountably solicitous was hiding evil intentions. He did not know anyone in the Imperial Capital, so why would someone send him an invitation?
However, the martial artist persevered behind Qin Feng, holding the invitation in his hand, "Young Master Qin, my family's master invites you to his residence for a chat!"
Qin Feng stopped, "Who is your family's master and why does he want to invite me?"
"If Young Master Qin goes, you will naturally know!" The man said.
Qin Feng took the invitation. On it were written four words, Brave God General!
Qin Feng slightly frowned. This Brave God General seemed to be the number one general of the Southern Sky Empire. His cultivation was unfathomable. He had once killed four generals of an enemy country. His name shook the entire Cang Lan region.
"Why does he want to invite me?" Qin Feng frowned.
"Please!"
The martial artist made an inviting gesture. A luxurious carriage had been waiting by the side for a long time.
When Qin Feng went out, he did not specify his destination. It could be said that he was walking around randomly. However, the other party was able to prepare a carriage nearby. It could only be said that the other party had put in a lot of effort to invite him.
In the Brave God General's residence, other than the two gatekeepers, there were no other guards.
The Brave God General was one of the strongest martial artists in the Southern Sky Empire. If the person who came was not even a match for him, then the guards would be useless.
"Peng!"
Passing through the martial arts field, a youth was tempering his body. The thousand pound stone lock in his hand was as light as a feather.
"Boom!" The moment Qin Feng walked past, a thousand pound stone lock flew towards him.
Qin Feng was not in a hurry. With a slap of his palm, the thousand pound stone lock was sent flying back.
"Boom!"
The youth reached out to catch it but was forced back by a sword ray. The sword ray slashed the stone lock and the stone lock immediately exploded.
"Father!" The youth hurriedly greeted the person who came.
"Useless thing. You dare to challenge Young Master Qin with your strength? If Young Master Qin did not go easy on you, you would be a dead man now."
The person who came was the Brave God General, Shi Yong. The youth who was tempering his body was Shi Yong's only son, Shi Tian.
"It's just a thousand pound stone lock. I can take it with one hand!" Shi Tian pouted.
Shi Yong looked at Qin Feng. "My son did not know the immensity of heaven and earth and offended Young Master Qin. I hope Young Master Qin will not take offense.
"Young people. It's understandable for them to be a little mischievous!" Qin Feng smiled and nodded.
Shi Tian's mouth twitched. Who was this brat calling young? Shi Tian was twenty-six years old. He was almost a year older than Qin Feng!
Shi Yong was also stunned. He did not know how to respond.
"I don't like to beat around the bush. Great General, if you have something to say, then just say it!" Qin Feng was too lazy to waste time here.
"Alright. Young Master Qin is a straightforward person. I will not hide anything. Please return the gold that belongs to me!" Shi Yong said.
Qin Feng smiled coldly. "Great General, are you awake? When did I owe you gold?"
"I can understand if Young Master Qin does not admit it. But when you see the next person, Young Master Qin will understand."
"Come out, Brother Xuan Kang!"
Qin Feng looked at the person who came and frowned. "I don't know you!"
Xuan Kang's pupils shrunk. "You stole my mountain and you say you don't know me?"
"Your mountain, you are …"
"Heavenly King's Eighteen Strongholds Head, Heavenly King Xuan Kang!" Xuan Kang said while gritting his teeth.
Qin Feng chuckles: "How do you know that it was me who robbed your village?"
Qin Feng's words were equivalent to admitting that he stole the Eighteen Heavenly King Strongholds. Admitting it in front of Xuan Kang was undoubtedly a provocation!
Xuan Kang was also an outstanding person. He actually endured it. "There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. Moreover, I have ways to find out who did it from others."
"No discord, no concord. Today, I will be a peacemaker and resolve this grudge for the two of you. Young Master Qin does not need to take out all of the gold that you got from the mountain strongholds. Just take out half of it. The other half will be considered as us making friends with you!" Shi Yong laughed and said.
Qin Feng looked at Shi Yong and then looked at Xuan Kang. Normal people would not even dream that the head of the Eighteen Heavenly King Strongholds would collude with the empire's number one general.
