Martial Peak: Chaos Dragon Emperor

Chapter 97: Ch 97: Meeting Shui Ling | Bone Race



Yang Feng said with a sly smile, "this is an improved version of your sects foundation cultivation technique. With this, the limit of your sect's technique wouldn't be Transcendent, but Saint Realm. If you're lucky, you might even reach the Peak of the Saint Grade."

*Booooomm*

Yang Feng's words were like a clap of thunder to the ear of the elders as they literally tried to snatch the scroll from Chen Zhou's hands. This in turn bought Chen Zhou out of his shock as he passed the scroll to the other elders after repenting them.

While the elders went through the scroll, Chen Zhou turned to look at Yang Feng and Su Yan. Chen Zhou could tell from his own understanding that the technique Yang Feng gave him would definitely be able to help him reach Saint Realm, that is if he focused on cultivating only for a few years.

Yang Feng spoke as he saw Chen Zhou not speaking and giving him and Su Yan a hidden calculative look, "This technique should be satisfactory to Sect Master Chen, right?"

Chen Zhou didn't speak for a second as he was contemplating his options. '...*sigh* forget it. He has already gained the inheritance which needs the recognition of the Ancestor (according to him. The test should belong to the previous owner of the sources), so he could be considered half-person of the sect. But judging from how this Yang Feng is dealing with the situation, he doesn't want to be shackled by the sect.... I can't do anything anyways as the two are stronger than me. Besides...'

Chen Zhou glanced at the scroll that was still being held by the shocked elders and nodded to Yang Feng. Yang Feng and Chen Zhou exchanged a few more sentences before Yang Feng grasped Su Yan's hand and used his Void Steps to teleport away, leaving behind a wide eyed Chen Zhou.

....

The figures of both Yang Feng and Su Yan appeared a few kilometers away from the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion. After that, the two went towards a direction they had decided to visit before their secultion.

As they flew, Su Yan looked at Yang Feng with a curious expression and asked, "do you think Treasurer Meng took your advice?"

Yang Feng internally groaned as he answered, "that old coot?, I'm not really sure. I hope he did, as that would make it many times easier to find him and Cheng'er." Su Yan hummed at his answer and the two flew through the sky.

It was after a few days that they reached a costal city. This city was the headquarters of the Water Spirit Temple, Shui Ling's Sect.

Yang Feng and Su Yan came here for two reasons. One, Meng Wu Ya had mentioned that he wanted to visit here. Second, judging by the timeframe, Yang Feng concluded that Yang Kai should have arrived, so he wanted to inquire about Yang Kai from Shui Ling.

As they approached the gates of the temple, the guards at the gate saw them and feeling their strong aura, the guards started to felt slightly nervous. After reaching the gate, Yang Feng told the gate keeper that he came here to meet Shui Ling.

Hearing that Yang Feng came here to meet Shui Ling, their nervousness lessened. But soon, they(the guards) found out that Yang Feng didn't have a token or something else that could signify his identity to meet Shui Ling, who was quite literally a princess here.

Not wanting to sound rude or cause trouble for themselves, the guards suggested for Yang Feng and Su Yan to wait for them to inform Shui Ling. Yang Feng nodded, he didn't have any token from Shui Ling so he could only wait silently.

A few minutes later, the couple and the guard saw Shui Ling flying towards them at a really fast pace. Shui Ling stopped in front of the couple and hugged Su Yan while saying, "Big Sister Su Yan! It's so good to see you again!"

The guard stood frozen while Yang Feng looked on, blinking his eyes cluelessly. Su Yan smiled slightly and answered to Shui Ling, "It's good to see you too, Ling. When did you return?"

Yang Feng waited for a minute, watching the two talk, before he coughed and spoke, "well, good that your back brat... Now, shell we talk?"

Shui Ling glanced at Yang Feng before she hid behind Su Yan saying, "Sister Su Yan, look that beast is scaring me again!". Yang Feng's got shocked at that, 'what scaring? I just talked to you normally!!'

Su Yan giggled at Yang Feng's expressions, earning his questioning look in return. Su Yan then explained the situation to him. Apparently, after she arrived, shui Ling got along quite well with Su Yan, Hu Mie'er and especially with Xia Ning Chang and the three women also enjoyed the girl's presence.

In turn, because Yang Feng had only talked to Shui Ling only a handful of times and during all of them, he was likely to repent her for something. So shui Ling kind of developed a fear and slight dislike to him and this was her way of show it.

"*Humphhhh* I still don't know what sister Su and Sister Xia see in a brute like you. So Sister Su Yan, what is it that you want to talk about?", Yang Feng's eyes twitched in annoyance at Shui Ling's behavior, 'No way am I a brute like she says! That's pure slander!! I am a romantic guy! Yes, a romantic guy who also likes to fight!'

Seeing that Yang Feng was getting increasingly annoyed, Su Yan decided to stop Shui Ling by tell her their reason of coming here, "Ling, did you happen to meet Treasurer Meng in the past 2 years?"

Shui Ling nodded and answered, "Yeah, I think it was a little over a year ago that he came here with Sister Xia, but he left a few days after meeting my father."

Yang Feng didn't bother asking her if she knew where the two went next as he knew what her answer would be. He shook his head before asking Shui Ling, "Anyways, has Yang Kai arrived at Tong Xuan Realm as well?"

Shui Ling nodded, "Yeah, we came here together. Hu Mie'er, Jiao'er and Yi Meng also wanted to come but Yang Kai persuaded them not to, for now."

Yang Feng sighed and shook his head. No matter how much he loved his brother (family love, for those who would see it in the wrong way 😅), he couldn't agree to his decision of leaving his lovers/wives behind in the small world as this would hinder their growth.

As for it being dangerous? *scoff* cultivation itself is dangerous as cultivators can die anytime due to various situation. If one is too afraid of facing such situations, he might as well not become a cultivator. Well, that was what Yang Feng thought about it.

"Do you where he might be?", Su Yan asked seeing Yang Feng's displeased expressions, which lasted only for a moment. Shui Ling answered negatively.

Yang Feng and Su Yan stayed for a few hours before the two left for their next destination, Yang Feng's second last predetermined destination, the area of the Ice Sect.

As their next destination was across the Sea, Yang Feng and Su Yan didn't rest during the travel with Yang Feng even using his Void Steps to cover a greater distance whenever he could. Because of this, it took only a few day for the two to reach their destination.

....

On a mountain range covered in ice and snow, two figures abruptly appeared. Yang Feng turned to look at Su Yan, who took a deep breath with her eyes closed. As she opened her eyes, they shone excitedly.

"This place...", Su Yan's voice trailed off as if she was thinking about how to express what she felt. Yang Feng smiled before completing her sentence, knowing that she would likely feel like this, "feels like home?"

Su Yan turned to look at him and slowly nodded her head, "you knew. Didn't you?". Yang Feng smiled mysteriously before answering, "well, if your asking if I knew that this place would be beneficial to your cultivation and that you will feel more comfortable? Then yes! I did."

Su Yan chuckled at his proud expression before she turned to look around and asked, "so, what are we doing here?". Yang Feng's expressions turned serious as he spoke, "we're here to see something very important."

Su Yan's eyebrows knitted slightly as she saw the rare serious look on Yang Feng's face. Su Yan then followed Yang Feng's lead as they went around the mountain range, looking for something.

Yang Feng was using his powerful divine sense to cover a wider area to look under the snow capped mountains. 'it should be around here somewhere.'

Yang Feng came here for two reasons. One, was for Su Yan to visit the Ice Sect and see if she wanted to cultivate there. And two, to find the remnants of the Bone Race. He wanted to see if he could eliminate the Bone Race before breaking the Tong Xuan Seal.

A few hours of search lead the two to an area covered in an insane amount of Ice. Yang Feng then used his Dragon Fist to break away the Ice blocking their way. The golden dragon, under Yang Feng's control, burrowed into the ice and reached a cave enterance before dissipating.

Yang Feng and Su Yan then entered the hole formed by the dragon phantom and reached the cave. Entering the cave, the two only walked a few step before seeing a skeleton frozen in a massive Ice Block.

Su Yan looked at the skeleton and spoke, "Does this person belong to the nearby sect and got buried in this Ice capped mountain?"

Yang Feng continued looking at the skeleton before he spoke, "that 'person' isn't dead." Su Yan did a double take at what Yang Feng said before she asked him, with a slight frown, what he means.

"This thing is alive. It's just frozen because of the ice.", Yang Feng continued seeing Su Yan's still confused look, "Remember that I told you about the different Races exiting in the Starry Sky and beyond, like the humans, demons and monsters. This skeleton here belongs to a race known as Bone Race."

Yang Feng's voice became frosty as he spoke further, "This race's primary form is that of a skeleton...", He turned to look at Su Yan's slightly wide eyes, "..and they won't die unless all of their bones are reduced to ashes. The worst thing is that this particular race cultivates by absorbing flesh and blood of other races."

Now, Su Yan's eyes were completely serious as well. She could imagine that if this thing got out and was given enough flesh and blood to develop, it could reach the Saint Realm within a very small timeframe.

So, if this thing got out, it might start massacring any and all living being in sight to grow. "Who are you going to deal with them?", Su Yan asked Yang Feng. She knew that if Yang Feng came here, he must have a way to deal with them.

Yang Feng revealed a cruel smile as he looked at the skeleton and spoke, "*heh* I'd like to see how this race, that devours others to grow, would feel like if they become the ones that get devoured by others to grow stronger instead."
