The Feng Zun Journey
Zhi Guan Vs Qing Ruo's

Zhi Guan was a Black Dragon Snake-People Demon that lived on the Cliffs of Dragon Bones.

For many years his father suffered greatly from a mysterious disease, even he knew that his father was eager to die, so as not to be tormented by the disease.

But his father could never make a suicide attempt, as there was a mysterious force that prevented him from doing so.

He's been looking for a cure and a medical expert all over the world. But his efforts never yielded results.

When Feng Zun was still traveling with Tianba, Yuntian, Shuoxue, and the other Divine Sword Palace disciples, he had briefly stopped at the Dragon Bone Cliff and met Zhi Guan.

Back then, they had almost fought, yet for reasons unknown to everyone, Zhi Guan, the figure of a mighty Immortal Demon Beast suddenly submitted to Feng Zun.

After being given a chance by Feng Zun, Zhi Guan finally chatted, then he told her the origin and illness of his father.

From that story, Feng Zun's interest was disturbed when he learned of the mysterious disease suffered by Zhi Guan's father.

According to him, the illness was in his agony after experiencing the hidden attacks of some cultivators, while he was undergoing heavenly tribulation.

After further study, Feng Zun discovered that the mysterious illness was caused by the Darkness Ancient Guardians Energy.

In the end Feng Zun managed to unleash the shackles of Dark Ancient Guard Energy, and made Zhi Guan's father end his suffering for thousands of years.

From then on, Zhi Guan had great respect for Feng Zun and wanted to become his disciple.

Even Feng Zun had never accepted him as a disciple, but Zhi Guan called him Master Feng Zun.

.....

"They're here again!" 

Chuyu's expression changed.

He controlled the white bone seal, which Feng Zun had given him in his control. With that thing, he could control the formation surrounding the ruins of the Eternal Dragon Palace.

It was a Celestial Seal Formation created by the Nine Absolutes from the past, including Emperor Mo Tianyuan.

When Yunmeng and his subordinates entered this large, foggy stretch of river, Chuyu immediately felt it.

"Senior Chuyu, are you saying the Heavenly Devil Prison has returned here?" Hua Jin's beautiful eyes were focused.

Weng Xue was sitting cross-legged and focused on cultivating. However, when he heard this, he opened his eyes.

Chuyu nodded and said, “For now, don't worry about anything else. Don't forget, we still have Senior Zhi Guan standing guard outside.”

"All right." 

Hua Jin and Weng Xue both agreed.

Over the past few weeks, Yunmeng had carried out repeated attacks into the ruins, but Zhi Guan had always appeared to fight him whenever they came. So, they're not too worried. 

Swosh~

Chuyu gripped the bone seal and circulated his cultivation base. 

The strength of the formation appeared and turned into a rain of light, forming a transparent curtain, then the surface of the curtain reflected the situation outside.

This meant that Chuyu, Hua Jin, and Weng Xue could clearly see the situation outside. 

Zhi Guan looked at Yunmeng, Qing Ruo, and the group of perverted cultivators.

“It.... That is..”

Weng Xue reacted as if she had been struck by lightning. Her delicate and beautiful face was dazzlingly paled, and she felt a chill running down her hands and feet.

"Who is that?" Chuyu asked in confusion.

“They... They brought Junior's parents Weng..” said Hua Jin, his expression fickle between anger and worry.

Chuyu turned his head quickly and found the two hostages, which were brought by Yunmeng's leading subordinates, they were a man and a woman.

There was no doubt that it was old man Weng Xue!

Chuyu's heart sank as he realized, that this time Yunmeng had come with careful preparation!

“Now what should we do....?” Chuyu frowned, and her expression was filled with uncertainty.

Hua Jin however turned to Weng Xue, and said gently, “Junior Xue, don't panic. There must be a way to resolve this, if my prediction is not wrong, there is no way Yunmeng will hurt your parents before he achieves his goal.

Weng Xue took a deep breath and pursed her lips, “Senior sister, please rest assured. I will not do anything reckless, and it is impossible for me to let all of us suffer because of my parents!”

The young girl's fist clenched tightly, and she forced the word through the gap of her teeth, her clear gaze completely filled with regret.

“Don't talk nonsense, whatever happens, we'll do everything we can to save your parents. All you have to do now is stay calm. We... are still far from being cornered.” said Chuyu solemnly.

Weng Xue simply nodded in silence.

Then, the three of them looked at the situation through the transparent curtain.

….

At this moment, Qing Ruo's aura changed, and displayed her cultivation base to the early mortal level.

Zhi Guan reacted to Qing Ruo's aura change, and his expression was suddenly solemn.

He had such a powerful aura, despite still being at the early stage of the mortal realm? This brat is definitely not an ordinary person, Zhi Guan thought. 

His sleeves expanded, and the distinctive majesty of the Peak Immortal Realm spread around him.

Bang out!

The Qi of the Sky-shaking Spiritual Demon Beasts also surged around him. It then transformed into the form of the illusionary Black Dragon Snake, which swirled around his body. It was an illusion, but it looked very real.

“Hah... That's free." 

Qing Ruo shook her head, then she suddenly stepped into the air.

Bang out!

When he had just lowered his feet, the river water surface suddenly collapsed explosively to below him, and the surrounding air turned chaotic. Furthermore, a tyrannical and imposing aura also appeared around him. 

“I may be human, but I cultivate the path of cultivation of Devils and Souls. Moreover, my fist is my greatest weapon!” 

As his warm laughter rang out, Qing Ruo swung her arm and threw a punch.

Bang out!

The heaven and earth shook, and the demon qi boiled.

Traces of black fist fists condensed in the sky, like miniature black suns. 

Its pitch-black light shone all around it, and plunged the heavens and earth into darkness.

An energy overflowed, and an immeasurable demonic Qi flared up and enveloped the black fist mold. It howled and boomed in the air, carrying pressure in the void.

As the fist crossed the air, it managed to carve a shocking space crack in the sky, which continued to accelerate towards Zhi Guan and immediately struck him.

Yunmeng and the others were stunned. 

The fist was so strong that their hair stood upright, and made the subordinates of Yunmeng feel pain, which pierced through all layers of their skin!

"Destroy it!" 

Zhi Guan shouted, his voice was like the roar of a dragon that shook the sky.

He then formed an elaborate seal, and waved his hand.

Suddenly a wave of river water rolled across the sky, then condensed into a spear and shot into the distance.

Bang out!

Sky-shaking explosions rang out as black fists and spears clashed against each other. 

Both were destroyed and lost, giving rise to destructive energy currents that spread from the point of impact, disrupting the river water and making the entire stretch of the great river turbulent.

“Do you think such strength is enough to eat me, Qing Ruo? You overestimate yourself, ” said Zhi Guan coldly.

Qing Ruo obviously disagreed, then she laughed and took a step forward. “It's just the beginning.” 

Bang...! 

Bang...! 

Bang...!

With each step he took, it made the sky and void tremble, and Qing Ruo's aura suddenly skyrocketed.

"It's…"

To their surprise, Yunmeng and his subordinates discovered that, the cultivation of the early stage Mortal Realm from Qing Ruo suddenly surged. Before long, he entered the peak stage Mortal Realm, and he was already nearing the early stage Immortal.

This is undoubtedly too shocking!

So, the boy suppressed his cultivation from the start, thought Zhi Guan, his expression suddenly gloomy.

Qing Ruo took another step forward, and her majestic aura was increasing. 

Now, even Zhi Guan, the existence of an Immortal peak Spiritual Demon Beast, felt a strong feeling of danger, which seemed like it was about to come to him soon.

"Try taking my punch now."

As Qing Ruo said that, she took the ninth step and seamlessly entered the early stage Immortal Realm. Then he clenched his hands, then punched the void from afar.

It was another simple blow, without adding any techniques. However, it was clear that his strength was much greater than before.

Bang out!
