Chapter 662: Chapter 382: Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, the 3rd problem _2
“All hail the Queen!”
Before the queen returned to the vast ocean, above the ceaseless current that spanned thousands of miles, countless merfolk with numerous sea beasts had gathered.
The Merfolk Queen, who had a moment ago mocked King Qiong Yu, frowned, noticing many unfamiliar faces within her group.
She had been prepared for this, even while her lord was secluded in the Cave Sky. As the activities of the merfolk and the Qiong Yu clans unfolded, their influence inevitably expanded.
The pivotal event came a decade ago when the Demon Repair Power from North Ming Continent moved here, seemingly due to being oppressed by the righteous on their own land and seeking to establish a backup plan by setting up here.
All heterogeneous clans fell under the Demon Repair Power’s extermination and incorporation efforts, but after they provoked the merfolk and Qiong Yu clans, many seclusive entities in the Cave Sky were alarmed.
A lone golden-eyed black cat, leisurely striding in the sky, caused more than ninety percent of the cultivators to self-destruct, and the subsequently appearing Undead Nether Phoenix, even the Qilin Auspicious Beast, left the demon cultivators who had come for revenge completely wiped out, no one left alive.
Since that battle, the reputation of this sea area skyrocketed. The demon cultivators who came to establish a foothold here were nearly expelled from their homeland.
Although there were Heavenly Immortals suppressing the Demon Repair Sect, even a sect with such foundation ended up avoiding this place and daring not to establish their base here anymore, as if their previous losses never existed.
An entity that can intimidate the Heavenly Immortal Sects and even make the Heavenly Immortals retreat can be the backing of the heterogeneous clans. Upon hearing such news, most heterogeneous clans could not contain their excitement.
At a time when the human race was rising and the many races were declining, the heterogeneous clan, having similar appearance to humans but being repelled by them and regarded as enemies by demons, had an extremely difficult living environment. Suddenly hearing about such an excellent refuge, how could they contain their excitement?
Hence, heterogeneous clans from all over the world gathered here, especially the merfolk and the Qiong Yu clan. With their similar appearances and display of strength, they were generally accepted.
However, when there were too many people and the environment was confirmed to be safe, internal conflicts and power struggles began, an inevitable occurrence among intelligent beings.
How to unite these swarming heterogeneous clans into a potential ally was the question the two kings needed to ponder, and all these had nothing to do with the supreme hidden within the Cave Sky.
“Time is forgotten in the mountains, and years are unknown when the cold ends. The sages indeed did not deceive me!”
A youth, his thick black hair naturally flowing, stepped out of the palace, looking over thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. With an extraordinary temperament, handsome features, and majestic physique, he exuded an air of supreme dominance.
“Feng Qing’an, are you going to leave the Cave Sky?”
A celestial phoenix, majestic enough to subdue all birds, fluttered its wings and landed on the young man’s shoulder. Its pitch-black feathers fell, adding a different charm to him.
“Master, please think carefully!”
A head, similar to a mix of dragon and snake, hung from the sky, with a touch of urgency and more worry.
“What, do you lack faith in me?”
Feng Qing’an lifted an eyebrow, sounding slightly disgruntled.
“Master, you have avoided too many Heaven Tribulations. Once you appear in the world, all the Heaven Tribulations you have not yet passed will accumulate at once. At that time, the tribulation you will face will be unprecedented throughout history.”
Jiuling advised sincerely and earnestly.
“Such a tribulation is befitting of a supremely rare individual like me, isn’t it?”
Feng Qing’an was utterly unconcerned. He spent a Jiazi refining in the Cave Sky, having shed all immaturity from the past. All the special traits he possessed, except the Immortal Spirit, had been fully utilized. As for his Immortal Way realm, he had deduced it to surpass the realm of a human immortal.
However, unlike a true Earth Immortal, he had not passed any Heaven Tribulation. Therefore, the moment he stepped out of the Cave Sky, he would face three Heaven Tribulations rolled into one. Its power was going to be unprecedentedly strong.
“Master…”
Jiuling was about to say something else, but she was ruthlessly interrupted by Feng Qing’an,
“What, do you want your master to stay in Cave Sky, dodging disasters, for the rest of his life? If so, you’ll never be able to return to your peak strength.”
Even though practicing in the Cave Sky can bring results, its rules are imperfect and ultimately cannot compare to the vast outside world.
If he wants to take another step forward, he has to endure heavenly tribulations. At this moment, Feng Qing’an has already reached a point where he can’t advance any further, whether it’s his cultivation of the Immortal Way or martial arts. Even Buddhism, he has studied. As for Soul Power, there is even less to say about that.
The beast tamer system, the sixth realm,
War Beast Emperor!
This realm requires a higher requirement for the Soul Contract, demanding the condensation of six major Soul Contracts. However, for Feng Qing’an, who is patient and dedicated to cultivation, this is nothing at all.
“Right, enough with the chatter, I’ll be back soon.”
After saying this, Feng Qing’an even casually tossed off the little phoenix on his shoulder, took a step out, and stepped out of the Cave Sky, appearing between heaven and earth, connecting heaven and earth with his own aura.
Rumble——
The tribulation was quick to show deference, at the moment Feng Qing’an appeared, a rich purple divine thunder descended, aiming to smite this thief of heaven and earth who had evaded many such tribulations before.
“Bring it on!”
Watching the thunder that was falling like a Sword of Heaven’s Punishment, Feng Qing’an didn’t dodge, he didn’t even use any magical skills or divine powers. His powerful blood essence surged like a sea, and this gave rise to various phenomena.
A celestial king sitting high in the ninth heaven, a true dragon soaring, a celestial phoenix circling, a Black Tortoise making way… in the boundless sea, a towering Da Kun rose to the sky, spreading its wings to fly… but these traces hadn’t come together when they froze in an instant.
Time had stopped, all the things in this world seemed to have been paused, everything in heaven and earth was wrapped in a giant transparent amber, even the purple heavenly divine thunder in the tribulation cloud that stretched for miles, was frozen in mid-air.
The purple thunderlight had become the only light in heaven and earth, the triple layers of heavenly tribulations accumulated in one place, indeed forming a rare heavenly punishment, but it too could not escape this entrapment.
“What is this?!”
Watching this scene before him, a speechless chill rose from his heart, and Feng Qing’an, who had been cultivating silently in the Cave Sky for sixty years, felt like an insect trapped in a cage.
However, even though everything in heaven and earth, even the heavenly tribulation representing the majesty of the Heavenly Dao was frozen, Feng Qing’an found that he could still move freely, his actions were not restricted at all, but this did not make him feel relieved, only more terrified.
“You sure kept me waiting, what were you doing idling in Cave Sky for so long?”
The cool, casual voice, which sounded like a complaint, arose. Feng Qing’an looked in the direction of the voice and found that a youth who resembled him by about seventy percent, with a lazy demeanor and dressed in brocade robes, had appeared by his side unknowingly.
He seemed ordinary, but he possessed a very peculiar quality, totally out of sync with everything around him, carrying an aura that transcended all things, detached from heaven and earth.
“Big Brother?!”
Feng Qing’an could hardly believe his eyes. This man was not his elder brother who shared the same parents with him, neither was he the one who had received an almost equal treatment to Buddha in the temple.
However, seeing that familiar face, together with the phenomenon of everything in the world being frozen, which was beyond the comprehension of ordinary cultivators, the identity of the person before him seemed quite clear.
“You still remember me, not bad, all these years it seems I didn’t waste my time on you.”
The way he appeared was unexpected, the detached youth who seemed to rule over all creatures between heaven and earth, said with a beaming smile.
