Chapter 1 Thunder Blade Secret Realm
Deep into the night, when everything was quiet, Lin Feng sat with Tian Zhongdao under the eaves, looking at the bright moon and drinking fine wine.
"What are, you, thinking about?" Tian Zhongdao asked.
"I was thinking... about what the Peak Master told me before. He said I should establish my own Dao, but even now, I don't understand what the Dao is or what my own Dao is,"
Lin Feng said.
"Your, own, Dao? Even, many, powerful figures from the Yin Yang Realm, don't, understand it, right?"
Tian Zhongdao said.
Lin Feng nodded and replied, "But what the Peak Master meant was that establishing one's own Dao is unrelated to cultivation level, and the sooner one establishes their own Dao, the better it is for cultivation."
Tian Zhongdao showed a thoughtful expression.
"Why didn't you call me for a drink?" Just then, the voice of an old drunkard came.
The old drunkard popped up from somewhere and jumped onto the eaves.
Tian Zhongdao rolled his eyes and said, "You, you still have, the, nerve, to come back?"
The old drunkard said mysteriously, "I was actually doing an errand for the Peak Master."
"Lying to a ghost?" Tian Zhongdao clearly didn't believe it.
A thought crossed Lin Feng's mind, and he asked, "What errand?"
"The Buddha said, it can't be told, can't be told." The old drunkard grinned, then poured a large mouthful of wine for himself.
The three of them drank till late before they each went their separate ways.
"Have you ever felt there's something off about the old drunkard?" Lin Feng looked at the Fire Kirin.
The Fire Kirin shook its head.
Lin Feng rubbed his head and said, "Maybe I've been cultivating too hard recently, and my nerves are a bit tight. That's why I'm seeing ghosts."
...
When the old drunkard ran away before the big competition and now returned, it caused quite a few people to be disgruntled.
But the old drunkard had thick skin and didn't pay any attention to the disciples' glances.
If anyone managed to irritate the old drunkard, he would boast, "Lin Feng and Tian Zhongdao are my brothers. If you dare to bully me, I will have my brothers teach you a lesson."
"This old geezer!"
Some disciples rolled their eyes but didn't take issue with the old drunkard out of respect for Lin Feng and Tian Zhongdao.
A few senior disciples organized a bonfire party and hoped to invite Lin Feng and Tian Zhongdao. Both Lin Feng and Tian Zhongdao were known for their extremely dedicated cultivation, and they weren't seen around much on ordinary days. Many Heavenly Repair Peak disciples weren't familiar with Lin Feng and Tian Zhongdao, and the bonfire party was also organized to let everyone get to know each other better.
A few hundred disciples attended.
The bonfire party was very lively. Wang Hu laughed and said, "Junior Brother Lin, look how those female disciples are looking at you with stars in their eyes. It's really enviable. Tonight, are you going to..."
He then made a lewd gesture.
Lin Feng and Wang Hu became more familiar with each other and knew that the guy liked to joke around. Lin Feng said with a chuckle, "If those senior and junior sisters hear you, they might just beat you to death."
"Are you badmouthing us, Wang Hu?" A group of female disciples approached, with one dressed in a red dress humming.
The girl in the red dress was named Shee Weizhu. She possessed the Fifth Level of Martial King Realm cultivation and was the highest among the female disciples in terms of cultivation. She had a tall and voluptuous figure with delicate and beautiful features. Her alluring body and perfect face attracted many pursuers, but Shee Weizhu had never been involved in any scandals with male disciples and was very dedicated to her cultivation.
"Senior Brother Wang Hu is the worst, he must be slandering us." Another female disciple said with a huff through her delicate nose.
This disciple was called Zheen Ying, small and exquisitely formed, extremely adorable.
The rest of the female disciples all began accusing Wang Hu en masse, making Wang Hu's face sour like a bitter gourd as he mournfully said, "Dear junior sisters, you have misunderstood me! It's as groundless as snow in June. I was actually praising all of you for being as beautiful as Heavenly Immortals."
"We don't believe your bullshit! Junior Brother Lin, is Senior Brother Wang really talking behind our backs?"
Zheen Ying looked at Lin Feng with a smile.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "You have really misunderstood Senior Brother Wang, he was indeed praising your beauty."
Wang Hu secretly gave Lin Feng a thumbs-up.
"We believe Junior Brother Lin's words, but not Wang Hu's," the group of female disciples said, giggling.
Wang Hu helplessly said, "Is it because Junior Brother Lin's cultivation is stronger than mine, and he is more handsome that you all favor him like this?"
Several female disciples spat lightly at Wang Hu in contempt.
Some bold female disciples chimed in, "Exactly, that's what we think."
After a round of laughter and teasing, Wang Hu introduced these female disciples to Lin Feng by name.
Shee Weizhu and Zheen Ying were naturally outstanding, one voluptuous and sexy, the other petite and dainty, both extremely beautiful, representing two different types of beauty.
Of course, the bonfire party also involved dancing. Many disciples started dancing around the fire, and Wang Hu egged on, "Junior Brother Lin, why don't you quickly invite Junior Sister Weizhu to dance? We're not so lucky."
Lin Feng stood up and invited Shee Weizhu.
Shee Weizhu's pretty face blushed slightly as she extended her jade-like hand. Lin Feng softly took hold of Shee Weizhu's hand and they both proceeded to the bonfire.
Days returned to a semblance of normalcy afterward as Lin Feng diligently practiced every day, hoping to break through the Martial King Realm soon.
During this time, a piece of news circulated within the sect: the Thunder Blade Secret Realm was about to open, and many disciples were discussing this matter.
Thunder Blade Secret Realm was located within the Desert Domain, a mysterious place that was said to open only once every five hundred years.
Within the Thunder Blade Secret Realm lay numerous Ancient Cultivation Cave Mansions, top-grade Spirit Stone veins that could be mined, endless Spiritual Medicines, and many other treasures.
Each time the Thunder Blade Secret Realm opened, it was accessible for a year. After that year, one had to leave the realm; otherwise, one would be trapped and perish within.
Moreover, the Thunder Blade Secret Realm had its own unique order of Heaven and Earth. The place only allowed cultivators below the Yin Yang Realm to enter. Those at the Yin Yang Realm and above could not enter the Thunder Blade Secret Realm. Now, as the Thunder Blade Secret Realm was about to open, the Azure Cloud Sect was organizing disciples to enter and train in the realm.
"Have you ever heard of this Thunder Blade Secret Realm?" Lin Feng asked the Fire Kirin about the Thunder Blade Secret Realm that evening.
"Of course, I've heard about it. It's rumored that in the Ancient Era, supreme powerhouses fought a great battle, where one of them slashed down with such force that it nearly destroyed the Desert Domain. Later, the place where the slash occurred formed the vast Thunder Blade Secret Realm, which spans much of the Desert Domain!"
Fire Kirin said.
"That's terrifying," Lin Feng remarked, shaken. The land of the Desert Domain was so vast that mortals couldn't traverse a single domain in a hundred lifetimes. How immense must that ancient powerhouse's slash have been to have almost split the Desert Domain? One could only wonder how strong that Ancient Cultivator was—it was beyond imagination.
