Chapter 498: Down The Precipice (2/2)

“Besides, you cannot say that alchemy and formations are useless, they are both extremely powerful. Someone who can concoct Xuan pills of average quality can help people at the Xuan Qi layer with their cultivation, and in that case, not only is the alchemist helping them, but they can also receive favours and payment in exchange. Besides, alchemists can also use the pills on themselves to benefit their own cultivation, so why not study it?”

Lin Feng understood and nodded. In fact, that really was the case. Lin Feng had also thought about these things. He had just asked their opinion because he was asking himself these questions. He was realizing that on the path of cultivation, of alchemy or formations, he was always extremely talented, the problem was that it was also making him feel hesitant on how he should proceed. What should he do to make the most of his potential? How could he maximize the benefits of his potential?

“Lin Feng, I know what you’re thinking but I want to tell you something, on the path of alchemy or formations, you are very talented and you must avoid wasting your talent. Maybe someday, you will realize that everything you study will lead to unimagined results. Yes personal cultivation will allow you to reach the heavens, but it doesn’t mean that you are omnipotent. Imagine if you weren’t here and somebody was threatening your sweetheart, your friends or your family, what could you do? However, if you were a brilliant alchemist who strengthened them with your pills, or created incredible formations, they could protect themselves without you. Even if you weren’t there, you would still be able to indirectly protect them from harm.” Said Mister Huo, he knew exactly how Lin Feng felt. He then added: “Of course, Lin Feng, that’s only my opinion, the most important thing is for you to listen to your heart.”

Lin Feng smiled in a warm and gentle way, and nodded at Mister Huo before saying: “I understand, Mister Huo.”

“That’s the most important thing then. You don’t need me to tell you anything, make your own decisions. You wouldn’t have created such a gigantic illusion formation around the Yun Hai Sect if you didn’t trust your own instincts. There wouldn’t have been any need for us to waste so much energy and so many resources to create it otherwise.” Said Mister Huo which made a smile appear on the corner of Lin Feng’s mouth. The former territory of the Holy Courtyard was extremely vast. Lin Feng had indeed used lots of energy to create that gigantic formation. When creating that gigantic formation he had even used a huge quantity of purity stones, which he had picked from the vein of the earth at Mount Sword.

…………

Three days later, many people were walking past the former territory of the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue, which was now the Yun Hai Sect. It looked the same as before but many people noticed that the Yun Hai Sect had become slightly strange. They felt like they were hallucinating, the Yun Hai Sect seemed to be surrounded by a mist if you looked closely.

However, when looking again, everything seemed normal.

“How strange!” Thought many people, it seemed like the Yun Hai Sect was different than before.

However, at that moment, a silhouette appeared from within the Yun Hai Sect who suddenly jumped into the air. It was a very young man who moved with incredible speed.

Besides, there was a ferocious beast closely following behind the young man. The crowd was astonished when they saw them.

“It must be Lin Feng!”

When the crowd saw him, they frowned and were shocked. That was Lin Feng!

They only saw Lin Feng suddenly appear and jump into the air as his winged tiger flew under him in a flash. Lin Feng landed on the back of the beast and then they flew into the distance. Lin Feng looked like a celestial being, he seemed so carefree and wild.

Lin Feng flew freely through the clouds on the back of the winged tiger. When the winged tiger beat its wings, it would travel across a huge distance in the blink of an eye. It was shockingly fast. They were heading towards the Yun Hai Mountain Chain.

The Yun Hai Mountain Chain was quite far from the Imperial City, but with the speed of the winged tiger, it would only take them a day.

The winged tiger continued to fly through the sky until eventually it flew down through the clouds and arrived above a precipice. It then crossed a layer of fog and continued descending.

Lin Feng could see the eight drums on the Precipice of Zhangu which reminded him of his time within the sect.

“Follow the precipice, for about a thousand meters.” Whispered Lin Feng. Protector Bei had once led him there. He then slowly flew down and arrived a thousand meters under the Precipice of Zhangu.
