Chapter 6128: Jie Mubai’s Attitude
Awakening Saint Realm might have dissipated, but it had teleported everyone who had entered the formation realm to where they were before with its final sliver of energy.
Chu Feng had meticulously chosen the location where he entered the formation realm.
It was a remote realm far from the formation realm. He even made sure to search for a more discreet location in the realm and constructed a concealment formation in advance, just to be doubly safe.
He held in his hand the pill that could partially awaken his world spiritist bloodline, but for some reason, he looked hesitant.
“What are you concerned about?” Eggy asked.
“A phenomenon may appear if I partially awaken my world spiritist bloodline, and I don’t know if I can suppress it. It will spell trouble if the phenomenon catches the attention of the Netherworld Sect. I am also worried there might be complications if I don’t take this pill now. Awakening Spirit Realm has already dissipated, and I don’t know how long the pill’s energy can be stored for.”
Chu Feng was nervous because he knew that this energy was special.
Treasures could be passed down through the generations, but this pill contained a special surge of spirit power. Nothing was maintaining the spirit power now that Awakening Spirit Realm had dissipated, so it was only a matter of time before it dissipated.
“There is no need to hesitate. Take the pill now. Many elders have come to support you. They are aware of your plight, so I’m sure they will linger in the area and rush to your aid right away if you do induce a phenomenon,” Eggy said.
“You’re right. My Eggy is so smart. I was too focused on solving the problem alone that I forgot that I have people supporting me. There’s no reason to hesitate then. I shall assimilate the pill right away!”
Chu Feng popped the pill containing massive spirit power into his mouth before quickly sitting down with crossed legs and forming a hand seal.
A special surge of energy suffused Chu Feng’s soul. Some of it leaked out and revolved around him. This was the energy he had obtained from Awakening Saint Realm.
The stronger the bloodline, the more difficult it would be to awaken it.
Awakening Chu Feng’s Ruler’s Bloodline, even when it was just a partial awakening and with the aid of this energy, was no easy feat. Even though this energy served as an impetus for this breakthrough, whether this breakthrough was a success or not still lay with Chu Feng.
Chu Feng was prepared for this.
He carefully assimilated the energy while slowly advancing with the method he had grasped from the Awakening Spirit Realm’s stone monument formation.
...
Meanwhile, those who had been in the formation realm were fervently discussing the earlier happenings.
As they reviewed the happenings in the formation realm, they couldn’t help but realize that they were still underestimating Chu Feng’s capabilities.
So many people had shown up to support Chu Feng, and there was even a Heavenly God level cultivator and a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist too.
The crowd felt that Chu Feng already had the backing to rival the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion and the Netherworld Sect.
But the most important thing of all was that Chu Feng’s potential far surpassed the crowd’s expectations once again.
Chu Feng had practically cleared the trial without any help as he hadn’t used the support formation. He had singlehandedly taken control of the situation.
Witnessing the Ruler’s Bloodline devouring the world left them with terror in their souls and stifled their bloodlines. Just recalling the experience left them with goosebumps and cold sweat.
Whether they liked Chu Feng or not, they were now convinced that he would surpass his mother, Jie Ranqing, and become the strongest person ever in the world of cultivation.
No one in recorded history had ever achieved such astonishing feats or displayed such tremendous talent at Chu Feng’s age. The fact that he could tower above his peers despite being born in an era overflowing with prodigies further highlighted how powerful he was.
News spread like wildfire.
But one group of people who were in no mood to discuss this matter—they were Jimo Qianzhou and the Netherworld Sectmembers.
Jie Mubai had escaped with Baili Zilin, but they didn’t return to their original positions outside.
This left Jimo Qianzhou extremely worried, especially when he thought about Jie Mubai’s attitude toward Baili Zilin. He had a feeling that something was amiss about Jie Mubai, and he might act against them.
Fortunately, Jimo Qianzhou soon received a message from Jie Mubai. He hurriedly made his way to a specific area in the Bloodline Galaxy and soon came face to face with Jie Mubai and Baili Zilin.
Jie Mubai, still completely concealed under a white cloak, was meditating in the middle of space with a formation beneath him.
The formation resembled a chessboard, and Jie Mubai was busy moving runes as if they were chess pieces in an attempt to decipher something. He looked like an otherworldly expert.
Standing obediently beside the chessboard, Baili Zilin’s face lit up when he saw Jimo Qianzhou.
“Uncle Qianzhou!”
Baili Zilin rushed up to Jimo Qianzhou and hid behind the latter. He looked relieved as if he had grasped a straw of hope, but even so, he still nervously clutched onto Jimo Qianzhou’s robe as if worried that the latter would abandon him.
Jimo Qianzhou realized that Baili Zilin had suffered a scare despite being safe and sound.
“It’s all right now, young master Zilin.”
Jimo Qianzhou patted Baili Zilin’s shoulder before turning to Jie Mubai. There was no question that Jie Mubai was the one who had scared Baili Zilin.
“Take him back.”
Jie Mubai was so focused on his formation chessboard that he didn’t even spare a glance at Jimo Qianzhou.
“What do you mean by this, Jie Mubai?” Jimo Qianzhou asked.
“Nothing. Baili Zilin was too useless, so Chu Feng ended up benefiting from Awakening Saint Realm’s energy. However, I am also partly responsible for this, so I won't pursue this matter. You don’t need to give me the things I have demanded. Let’s end things here,” Jie Mubai said.
Jie Mubai, are you terminating your partnership with our Netherworld Sect?” Jimo Qianzhou asked.
“We’ll talk after Baili Xukong emerges from his closed-door training,” Jie Mubai replied.
Jimo Qianzhou frowned. He could tell that Jie Mubai was implying that he wasn’t qualified to negotiate with him, but he suppressed his anger.
“Fine, we can discuss our partnership next time, but you owe us an explanation for what happened in Awakening Saint Realm. You could have intervened in another manner, but you chose the most detrimental method to young master Zilin and tarnished his reputation. I won’t let things rest if you can’t give young master Zilin a satisfactory explanation.”
Jie Mubai suddenly burst into laughter.
“Hah... Jimo Qianzhou, that’s enough. It’s only normal for me to get angry after seeing how useless Baili Zilin is. You are Baili Xukong’s dog, so I understand your desire to stand up for Baili Zilin. But a dog is a dog. Get your place right.
“If Baili Zilin wants an explanation, get his father to talk to me. As for you... don’t overestimate your worth.”
Jie Mubai finally looked at Jimo Qianzhou, but his gaze was filled with contempt as if he were looking at a dog.
Jimo Qianzhou couldn’t suppress his anger anymore.
He unleashed his oppressive might as a Heavenly God. He raised his hand and released a torrent of martial power, which morphed into a massive hand to grab Jie Mubai.
The hand was so huge that it was conspicuous even in space. Jie Mubai’s silhouette was a mere speck of dust before it.
Boom!
The hand shattered, dissipating as a rain of martial power.
Jimo Qianzhou’s face darkened. What stopped his attack was not spirit power but martial power, but Jie Mubai was a world spiritist!
“You can’t touch him,” a voice echoed from afar.
