Martial God Asura (Web Novel)
chapter-6003

“Elder, who do you think is behind this?” Chu Feng asked.

Unable to find any clues, he could only seek advice from the expert here.

Heavenly Dragon World Spiritists were legends before the appearance of the Huangfu Heavenly Clan, and even now, they were deemed to be untouchable entities. Yet, even Daoist Starseizer looked pale after seeing the horrors that had befallen the Immortal Sea Fish Clan.

Daoist Starseizer shook his head and replied, “There’s a mix of spirit power and martial power behind the devastation, but they have covered their trail so thoroughly that it’s hard to tell which power is behind it. I am fairly certain that the Immortal Sea Fish Clan has a Heavenly God level cultivator, so whoever’s behind this is bound to be terrifyingly powerful.

“Chu Feng, it’ll be best for you not to get involved. No matter who the culprit is, that person isn't someone you can handle with your current strength.”

Chu Feng didn’t answer.

Daoist Starseizer sighed, knowing Chu Feng’s stance from his silence. Being a sentimental man, there was no way for Chu Feng to steer clear of this upheaval.

“Could the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion be behind this?” Chu Feng asked.

Daoist Starseizer fell silent, but he soon replied, “It’s possible. The Seven Realms Sacred Mansion has the means to pull it off, and Jie Tianran has the motive too. However, it looks like the people from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion are really here to investigate the matter. At least, I’d say that the people here don’t know the truth.”

“Mm.” Chu Feng nodded.

He had been keeping an eye on those from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, and they looked like they didn’t know the truth. Still, no matter how he looked at it, the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was still the most suspicious one of all.

But empty conjecture was meaningless.

He could only pray that Little Fishy, Xianhai Shaoyu, and the others had survived this ordeal under the protection of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan’s experts.

Just then, a noise similar to a ferocious beast’s howl echoed from the sky. It was coming from the direction of the Seven Realms Galaxy, but Chu Feng couldn’t see anything.

“It’s from the Seven Realms Galaxy,” Daoist Starseizer said.

“The Seven Realms Galaxy?”

Chu Feng was surprised. How did a sound from the Seven Realms Galaxy travel here? Was this another sign that something huge was about to happen?

“Use this.”

Daoist Starseizer took out two elliptical stones and passed one to Chu Feng. These stones were known as Skygazing Divine Stones, and it allowed one to peer through space and see what was happening an unbelievably far distance away.

Both Chu Feng and Daoist Starseizer used the Skygazing Divine Stones to look in the direction of the noise. Their eyes widened.

Daoist Starseizer sighed. “Things keep happening one after another.”

Through the Skygazing Divine Stones, the two of them saw a surge of energy rippling from the center of the massive silhouette. It wasn’t fully formed yet, but they could tell that it was going to be an incomparably huge spirit formation gate spanning the size of a realm.

Most important of all, that energy looked to be one with the silhouette.

“Does this mark the commencement of God’s Era?” Chu Feng asked.

“God’s Era has long commenced, but it looks like its true secret is about to be revealed,” Daoist Starseizer said.

Chu Feng understood the significance behind those words.

Both of them had deduced that the rippling energy was a spirit formation gate, and the spirit formation gate was likely linked to the crux of the God’s Era. But given the power of God’s Era, there was no need for it to stir such a huge commotion just to open a spirit formation gate.

Be it the earlier noise or the delayed opening of the spirit formation gate, those were signals for everyone to prepare themselves for what was to come. There was going to be a massive battle over whatever was inside the spirit formation gate.

“Elder, will you be competing in God’s Era?” Chu Feng asked.

Daoist Starseizer shook his head. “I won’t participate in such stuff.”

“Will you stand against me if I wage war against the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion in the future?” Chu Feng asked.

“I doubt that I’ll be able to stop you if that day comes.”

“I know that you’re a good person, and I don’t want to be your enemy.”

“I understand, but such is life. Everyone has their circumstances. Things don’t always go in the direction we hope. We’ll deal with it when it happens, but the important thing is to not do things that we’ll regret.”

“Mm.”

Chu Feng understood what Daoist Starseizer was getting at.

Despite having left the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, Daoist Starseizer still identified himself as one of its members. He wouldn’t turn a blind eye if the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was in crisis.

“I apologize for not being able to offer you much, Chu Feng. However, I have made a prophecy for your mother, and the result will be out in a month. If you are free then, you can come here to look for me.”

Daoist Starseizer passed Chu Feng a map. It was a map identical to the one he had passed to Xia Xingchen and Huahua.

Chu Feng took the map.

“I won’t ask about your plans. I doubt that I can dissuade you from whatever you intend to do. You can be assured that I won’t follow you,” Daoist Starseizer said.

Chu Feng trusted Daoist Starseizer. There was no need for the latter to lie; he could have dealt with him right now if he wanted to.

With that, the two of them parted ways.

Chu Feng made his way to the Martial Cultivator Commerce Guild.

The Martial Cultivator Commerce Guild had branches all over the world of cultivation, and it had stationed quite many experts in the Immortal Sea Galaxy. They should have kept tabs on an incident as major as an attack on the Immortal Sea Fish Clan.

He was hoping to receive important clues regarding the attack from the guild leader.

When Chu Feng arrived at the mountain range where the guild leader was in closed-door training, he met a familiar figure. It was Zi Ling.

“You’re finally back, big brother Chu Feng. What took you so long?”

Zi Ling walked up to Chu Feng, grabbed his wrist, and inspected his condition, worried that he might have sustained injuries. Chu Feng felt conscience-stricken to see how worried she was.

“My apologies, Zi Ling.”

Chu Feng revealed what happened afterward to him. He thought that Zi Ling would be angry at him for searching for another key fragment of his own accord after dealing with Little Fishy’s affairs.

However, Zi Ling smiled at him and said, “Big brother Chu Feng, I have thought things through. As much as I wish to fight alongside you, I don’t want to become your burden. I know my strength is lacking, so I’ve decided to stay here and cultivate for now. Go ahead to do whatever you need to do, and I believe that you’re capable enough to settle them well. I’ll travel with you again when I’m certain that I can be of help to you.”

Seeing how understanding Zi Ling was made Chu Feng feel a bit better.

“You lovebirds, is there anything you can’t say in here?” a voice sounded.

Looking over, it was the guild leader. She brought the two of them in with a wave of her sleeves. At the same time, a letter floated over to Chu Feng.

“The Immortal Sea Fish Clan left it for you,” the guild leader said.
