Venerable Martial Emperor

Xu Feng and Xuan Ming, one man and one beast, were chatting on top of the mountain peak. In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon. Xuan Huo, Xuan Hao, who was standing behind them, had already drunk his four Demonic Beast. A trace of a smile appeared on Xuan Hao's face.    

    

"My grandson's character, I'll leave it to you. Xu Feng, if he changes his view, this old man will be very grateful!"    

    

Xuan Ming had been cultivating for a long time. It was very likely that his cultivation base would not advance any further in his lifetime. Now, his only hope of survival was his two juniors.    

    

Although Xuan Hao's personality had not revealed any flaws, as his cultivation base increased, his problem will be revealed. How could a cultivator not experience setbacks? Xuan Hao had had a smooth sailing since he was born. This feeling of victory... It would definitely have a huge impact on him when he tried to break through to the Great Dao.    

    

Breaking through to the Great Dao, he would either successfully increase his strength or turn into ashes under the pressure of the Great Dao. The Great Dao was ruthless. The lifespan of the Cultivator would increase along with the increase of one's cultivation base, but they would also die at any time.    

    

This was because it was very likely that they would be devoured by the Great Dao when breaking through to the Great Dao.    

    

But to Xu Feng, these were still very far away. Xuan Ming didn't say it out loud. If he said it now, it wouldn't provide any help to Xu Feng, but would instead hinder his cultivation progress.    

    

"Xu Feng will do everything he can!"    

    

If the reason he came to Myriad Demon Ridge was because of his strength, then after a few days, ... Xu Feng had already treated the Demon Cultivator in Myriad Demon Ridge as a friend. Although Xuan Hao was very proud of himself, judging from his performance today, it was only because he had been alone in Myriad Demon Ridge for too long. From the smile on his face just now, it could be seen that... Xuan Hao's heart was not bad.    

    

"With Young Fellow Taoist Xu Feng's guarantee, I'm relieved. If there's any good wine in the future, remember to ask the old bull to come and have a drink!"    

    

After Xuan Ming finished speaking, he slowly walked down the mountain. It was already late at night. A few juniors were drunk, so sleeping on top of the mountain was not a problem. However, as an 'old bull', it was not suitable for him to be with these youngsters.    

    

"Don't worry, Senior Xuan Ming. The next time I come, I will bring a lot of fine wine with me!"    

    

Xu Feng promised loudly as he looked at Xuan Ming's back. He had finished all the wine in his Storage Ring. Initially, Xu Feng was worried that they would not be able to accept the taste of the wine. He did not expect that when he drank it, each of them was fiercer than the last.    

    

A thousand cups of wine for a bosom friend. This was not a lie at all. During the day of conversation, he had asked Xuan Ming many questions. Xuan Ming also knew everything and did not say anything. He had even given Xu Feng some pointers. There were many questions that he had not been able to understand in the past. After Xuan Ming's advice, everything became clear.    

    

Xu Feng lay on the ground in a large shape. The fragrant grass on his back was sticking close to the ground. He carefully felt the thickness and softness of the ground.    

    

"Zhou Tengfei, I will definitely defeat you!"    

    

Looking at the full moon in the sky, Xu Feng made up his mind again and again. Suddenly, he thought of something. He looked at Xuan Hao who was sleeping beside him and smiled sinisterly.    

    

In Myriad Demon Ridge, Xu Feng's biggest target was, of course, Xuan Hao. When he first arrived, Xu Feng was brutally tortured by Xuan Hao. However, Xu Feng had already sworn in his heart that he would give Xuan Hao a good beating. Only by dampening his spirit would he be able to do so.    

    

One man, four Demonic Beast, was bathing in the moonlight on top of the mountain, and fell into a deep sleep.    

    

When Xu Feng woke up the next day, he went straight to the bottom of the mountain. Needless to say, the challenger was already standing at the martial arts stage in the middle of the mountain. There were still many Demon Cultivator surrounding him, and even Cheng Jin and the others were no exception.    

    

Cheng Jin and the others' improvement could be considered as a great speed. The credit for this was... Part of it was their talent and hard work, and a large part of it was because of Xu Feng's daily battles. They would find a suitable fighting method from Xu Feng's fighting method, and use them in actual combat.    

    

Today, Xu Feng's opponent was a Poisonous Rainbow Butterfly, and he was still a Great Perfection of Martial Essence Stage warrior. However, after the Ghost Shadow Step broke through, Xu Feng's strength had obviously increased by a lot. With his ethereal movement technique, he had been fighting the Poisonous Rainbow Butterfly for a long time. In the end, Xu Feng failed.    

    

As for Xu Feng, he was still covered in wounds. The poisonous liquid contained in the Poisonous Rainbow Butterfly was very powerful. It also had a slight hallucinatory effect. If it wasn't for Xu Feng's firm mind and the flexibility of the Ghost Shadow Step, * Hong Long...... *    

    

Days passed just like that. In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed. From the beginning, Xu Feng had been one-sidedly abused, and was gradually able to fight equally with the Great Perfection of Martial Essence Stage Demon Cultivator. Such improvement was obvious to all the Demon Cultivator in the Myriad Demon Ridge. Even Xuan Ming couldn't help but be surprised by Xu Feng's rapid progress.    

    

If Xu Feng could step into the Small Perfection of Martial Essence Stage, perhaps even the Great Perfection of Martial Essence Stage Demon Cultivator in the Myriad Demon Ridge wouldn't be a match for him. At that time, perhaps Xu Feng could really fight Xuan Hao.    

    

Thinking of this, Xuan Ming couldn't help but feel some anticipation in his heart.    

    

In these past ten days, Xu Feng had made tremendous progress. Whether it was his physical body, movement technique, or Mental Strength, all of them had been greatly improved. However, this wasn't without a price. Every day... He would sleep with a lot of scars on his body. Then, the next day... Under the recovery of the abundant Yuan energy in Myriad Demon Ridge, he recovered to his peak condition. He continued to challenge.    

    

Xu Feng was a genius, but he was a hardworking man. If it was said that Xu Feng's first visit to the Myriad Demon Ridge had brought a stunning impression to all the Demon Cultivator, then Xu Feng had used his hard work to obtain the respect of countless Demonic Beast.    

    

Of course, besides cultivating, there would also be many Demon Cultivator that would come to find Xu Feng privately, play with him, and bring him to see all kinds of new things in Myriad Demon Ridge.    

    

Among them, what made Xu Feng very puzzled was that such a precious thing as Storage Ring was very common in Myriad Demon Ridge. Almost every Demon Cultivator would have one on them, and as their strength increased, they would change into a bigger Storage Ring.    

    

On the contrary, some small things that were very common to humans were very rare in the Myriad Demon Ridge. Xu Feng decided in his heart that the next time he came to Myriad Demon Ridge, he must bring some human toys and food over. They had been cut off from their relationship with humans for a long time. It was time to let them come into contact with some new things.    

    

A dozen days was neither long nor short. Whether it was Xu Feng or Cheng Jin, their strength was clearly increasing.    

    

Cheng Jin and the other three could already face the Demonic Beast of the same realm. In the Human Cultivator, they could be considered as experts. If they had the chance to break through to the Late Period of Martial Essence Stage, their strength would definitely experience a qualitative leap.    

    

In the spar, Xu Feng could barely reach a draw with the Demon Cultivator of the Great Perfection of Martial Essence Stage. But Xu Feng knew that this was just a spar, and not their true strength. The battle with Zhou Tengfei was bound to be a life and death battle. At that time, both of them would use all their strength. If Xu Feng hadn't broken through to the next realm, he wouldn't be a match for Zhou Tengfei even if he fought with his life on the line.    

    

Zhou Tengfei's strength was already unfathomable. Plus, as the number two genius of Lu Family, he surely had a lot of treasures that could save his life. Xu Feng's situation was still not optimistic.    

    

That night, Xu Feng sat cross-legged in front of the cave with a frown on his face. As time passed, he began to feel anxious.    

    

"Why are you looking so worried?"    

    

An old voice interrupted Xu Feng's contemplation. It was the Raging Fire Bull Devil, Xuan Ming. The entire Myriad Demon Ridge fell into silence. Only Xu Feng was still in the dark when Xuan Ming walked over.    

    

"Senior Xuan Ming, I am ashamed to say that I have come to Myriad Demon Ridge to train. I have come here to welcome a challenge. Now, the time was getting closer and closer, but there was no sign of a breakthrough. Ai..."    

    

This was the first time in twenty days that Xu Feng showed a helpless expression in front of Xuan Ming. The wise and experienced Xuan Ming could instantly guess that Xu Feng's opponent wasn't simple.    

    

Otherwise, he wouldn't have forced such a high-spirited young genius into such a helpless state.    

    

"Xu Feng, do you know what the path of cultivation is?"    

    

Xuan Ming smiled and asked Xu Feng's opinion about Dao.    

    

Xu Feng looked at Xuan Ming in confusion, not understanding what Xuan Ming meant. Xuan Ming didn't mind either. His deep eyes looked like they were going to pierce through the void. He said slowly, "The Dao focuses on the pursuit of the heart. The Human Law is the Dao. The Dao is the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao focuses on nature. Everything must follow one's true heart and focus on the Nature. Only then can one walk further on the path of cultivation "    

    

Xu Feng seemed to have understood something, but he could not grasp the key point in Xuan Ming's words.    

    

"I have said it before. Sometimes, being too persistent is not necessarily a good thing!"    

    

After saying that, Xuan Ming left Xu Feng's cave. He had given Xu Feng a hint, but could Xu Feng grasp this point? He had to rely on his own comprehension ability. Xuan Ming had already said what needed to be said. If he continued, it would affect his Tao Heart.    

    

"Being too persistent might not be a good thing?"    

    

Xuan Ming's words lingered in Xu Feng's mind for a long time. As for Xu Feng, he had already sunk into deep thought, and even Xuan Ming had not noticed it.    

    

What had happened in this month's time was inverted in Xu Feng's mind. He recalled the reason why he came to Myriad Demon Ridge, the Zhou family, the Profound Wind City, and his two masters.    

    

"Why did I come here?"    

    

Xu Feng kept questioning himself in his mind. He kept thinking about this question tirelessly.    

    

Was it for the four elites of Lu Family? Was it for the competition? For Lu Lee?    

    

Neither.    

    

He came to Myriad Demon Ridge only to become stronger, to pursue a higher cultivation base, to seek the Dao!
