Chapter 760 Free
Sun Hongfu's nerves were somewhat tense, and his intuition told him that Shen Feng might indeed be capable of killing him within seconds!
After this ridiculous thought emerged, he couldn't dispel it from his mind no matter what.
With an awkward smile, Sun Hongfu said, "Young man, I am not someone who is ungrateful. You've helped me resolve the Power of Heavenly Cold within my body, which is equivalent to giving me a second life; otherwise, I probably would have ended my days right here."
After a pause, he continued, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be very interested in the Power of Heavenly Cold, aren't you?"
While speaking,
A Jade Token appeared in his palm. Using his Divine Sense, he inscribed a map within it and then handed it to Shen Feng, saying, "Years ago, I accidentally entered a place imbued with extreme Power of Heavenly Cold. This map marks the specific location."
"However, I must warn you not to go to that place. Aside from the endless Power of Heavenly Cold, there are also various ice-attribute Monster Beasts. I was lucky to survive because I entered with two Immortal Emperor Powerhouses. If I had gone in alone, I would have undoubtedly perished there."
Shen Feng accepted the Jade Token, disregarding Sun Hongfu's words. He had to visit this place filled with the Power of Heavenly Cold himself. If he could condense even more powerful Ice Divine Beads, he would have an additional trump card when facing the Demon-Suppressing Zhao Family.
Shen Feng shook the Jade Token in his hand and said, "Consider this as your repayment to me!"
Upon hearing this,
Sun Hongfu, the old man, became stubborn and quickly shook his head, saying, "No, this hardly counts as a repayment. I never like to owe favors. You can make any request you want, and as long as I am able to fulfill it, I will not refuse."
Looking at the old man's resolute face, Shen Feng felt a greater sense of fondness for him and said, "The Power of Heavenly Cold has been within your body for so many years. Although it has been extracted by me now, you will still need a long time to recuperate, and it is even unlikely for you to have a breakthrough within fifty years."
"How about this! I can help you break through to above Immortal Sovereign in one month, but you must entrust your life to me for one year and let me plant a Divine Sense Brand in your mind."
As Shen Feng had just arrived in the Middle Realm, he indeed needed some help. After all, the Ice Divine Bead in his Dantian was a one-time consumable.
Speaking of Cultivation, Liu Qicang, on the other hand, had a lower voice.
Planting a Divine Sense Brand in Sun Hongfu's brain was also a consideration for security.
Shen Feng was confident that within one year, he could return to his peak Cultivation level.
Sun Hongfu heard Shen Feng casually saying that he could help him break through to above Immortal Sovereign within one month and wondered if breaking through in Cultivation was as easy as drinking boiled water?
He was also aware of the condition of his own body. Just as Shen Feng said, it was impossible for him to have a breakthrough within the next fifty years.
If he could break through to above Immortal Sovereign in about a month, for Sun Hongfu, it merely meant being Shen Feng's servant for a year—this was not unacceptable, especially since his Power of Heavenly Cold had been resolved with Shen Feng's help!
"Can you really help me have a breakthrough in one month?" Sun Hongfu asked doubtfully.
Shen Feng replied indifferently, "Whether you believe it or not is up to you, you make your own decision!"
After pondering for a moment, Sun Hongfu said, "After one year, will you help remove the Divine Sense Brand you planted?"
Shen Feng answered, "The Divine Sense Brand I plant in you will disappear on its own after one year. Moreover, you can be absolutely assured that within this year, I will not face any danger to my life, so your life will not be impacted."
Thinking back to how Shen Feng had just helped him resolve the Power of Heavenly Cold within his body, which he had also deemed utterly impossible, perhaps Shen Feng truly had the ability to let him break through to above Immortal Sovereign in a month. He always felt this young man in front of him was extraordinary.
Compared to his old friends, almost all of whom had broken through to above Immortal Sovereign, now that the Power of Heavenly Cold had been resolved, he was naturally eager to enhance his Cultivation.
"Alright, I can entrust my life to you for one year," Sun Hongfu chose to trust Shen Feng once again.
Shen Feng immediately placed his finger on Sun Hongfu's brow. Spiritual Energy and Divine Sense permeated instantly, sketching an extremely complex Divine Sense Brand in his brain, a brand that even a Cultivator at the Immortal Emperor Stage would find almost impossible to dissolve.
During the process of inscribing the Divine Sense Brand, Sun Hongfu didn't offer any resistance.
After the Divine Sense Brand was completed, Shen Feng's fingers did not retract, and instead, he imparted a very special Breathing Technique to Sun Hongfu.
This special Breathing Technique was something Shen Feng had acquired unintentionally, and it was specifically aimed at Immortal Sovereign Powerhouses.
According to Shen Feng's judgement, this Breathing Technique was perfectly suited for the current state of Sun Hongfu and would certainly enable him to break through to above Immortal Sovereign within a month.
Sun Hongfu, sensing the Breathing Technique that appeared in his mind, slowly browsed through it, and without realizing it, he began to practice this Breathing Technique.
He soon discovered that although the ailments in his body weren't healing, under the effect of this Breathing Technique, his aura was stacking layer upon layer. With not much time needed, he would be able to forcefully shatter his bottleneck and elevate his Cultivation above Immortal Sovereign.
By then, with the improvement of his Cultivation, the ailments within his body would naturally dissipate.
He was now certain that Shen Feng calling it a month was an understatement. By his own estimation, with the powerful Breathing Technique, he would be able to raise his Cultivation above Immortal Sovereign within at most fifteen days.
When he looked at Shen Feng again, Sun Hongfu's gaze became respectful. The young man before him, who outwardly only had mid-stage Condensing Immortal Cultivation, was shrouded in too many mysteries. After taking a deep breath to steady his heart, he adjusted his mindset, clear that for the next year his life was entirely in Shen Feng's hands.
After bowing deeply with the utmost respect and gratitude, Sun Hongfu said, "One year later, even if the Divine Sense Brand in my mind disappears, wherever you need me, this old man will sacrifice his life without hesitation."
Shen Feng waved his hand casually and said, "I'm going downstairs now; there are people waiting for me in the private room. If I need you in the future, I will come back here to find you."
Sun Hongfu dispelled the barrier on the staircase and watched Shen Feng descend the stairs. He knew that saying any more thanks would seem powerless compared to taking direct action in the future.
After Shen Feng returned to the upper grade private room where Zhou Jingguang, Liu Qicang, and others were waiting.
The table was already laden with dishes, each with certain benefits for Cultivators. Zhou Jingguang had certainly spared no expense on this day.
After casually greeting everyone, Shen Feng sat down and began eating the dishes prepared by the Spirit Chef, not initiating any conversation with Zhou Xinyao and the others.
Although the dishes surely paled in comparison to those he cooked, they were still palatable enough to eat without much issue.
Zhou Jingguang and Liu Qicang toasted each other, keeping the atmosphere in the private room from becoming awkward.
After a hearty meal and plenty drink.
Zhou Jingguang asked someone to call for the bill. Naturally, the payment for their patronage here was in Spirit Stones.
This time, it was Manager Wang from the Immortal Sea Tower who came personally. Upon entering the private room, he courteously smiled and said, "Master Zhou, this meal is on the house; you can leave directly."
"This is a directive from a senior of our Immortal Sea Tower. He mentioned that there is someone in this private room whom he takes a liking to."
Zhou Jingguang and the others knew that the senior Manager Wang referred to must be the Immortal Sovereign Powerhouse who was always behind the scenes.
One of them caught the eye of a Peak Immortal Sovereign Powerhouse?
Zhou Jingguang and Liu Qicang, being older, estimated that the Immortal Sovereign Powerhouse wouldn't be referring to them, leaving only the younger individuals, among whom Zhou Xinyao had the highest talent and Cultivation.
This was not only what Zhou Jingguang believed, but Zhou Xinyu and Zhou Ruixuan also thought the same.
Zhou Xinyu then scornfully transmitted a message to Shen Feng, "Do you see? Even a Peak Immortal Sovereign Powerhouse from the Immortal Sea Tower has taken a liking to my sister. You should realize now the gap between you and my sister, right?"
Zhou Xinyao and Zhou Ruixuan couldn't help but glance at Shen Feng, who just helplessly smiled internally, not wanting to offer too much explanation.
