How could figures like Chief Clerk Feihong and Blind Chang lack magical treasures? So, while powerful treasures are important, it's the person's own strength that truly counts.
To everyone, Ye Yanying seed just a Pill Master with presumably not much strength.
Apparently, they've been deceived by him.
"Don't talk nonsense, Chu Feng and I are innocent!" Xiong Guansui blushed fiercely. Even in exhaustion, she struggled to stand and distanced herself from Chu Feng.
Girls are still sensitive like that.
But Chu Feng wasn't affected; people could gossip as they liked, he paid them no mind.
"It's all your fault! I fear even diving into the Yellow River won't cleanse of this!"
Xiong Guansui glared angrily at Chu Feng and chastised softly.
"Why bother? You're already my woman!" Chu Feng rolled his eyes and slowly sat up, finally taking the opportunity to survey the peak's surroundings.
The expanse was far greater than imagined. Looking out, unless one had just climbed up from below, it was hard to believe this was a mountain peak.
More like a plateau.
"I've heard that one can gaze at their holand from Wangxiang Platform; I'd like to experience it!" Chu Feng stood and gazed downwards.
Below, even the Ghost King appeared as a tiny dot.
It was just too high up here.
The two Ghost Kings had already killed many and were crazily tearing them apart and devouring them.
For the ti being, there was no sign of them catching up, which allowed Chu Feng to quietly sigh in relief.
His gaze shifted to the distance. Clouds swirled and churned, slowly transforming into grand, expansive vistas that stirred the heart.
First to appear was Chu Feng's Great Chu Empire.
This was the Imperial City, Azure Dragon City. He even saw his wife Han Xiaoying, Chang'e, Han Shuang, as well as his second sister Chu Yun, and his subordinates Wen Shu, Han Dong, and others. Appearing in the scenes were all those closely related to Chu Feng.
Unrelated people or scenery were absent.
Looking at these familiar figures, Chu Feng was filled with emotions. He deeply wished to return alive. Otherwise, his wife and subordinates would be disappointed, in pain, and in sorrow.
His gaze moved to another direction, where the clouds rolled again.
This ti it was Dan State's Sword King Mansion.
His senior brother and sister-in-law appeared clearly, alongside three young boys and girls who bore so resemblance to them. They should be their children.
Chu Feng was overwheld with excitent.
The affection he had for his senior brother and sister-in-law surpassed even that for his parents.
He could faintly see demons attacking their city, their faces wearing expressions of worry.
"Senior brother, sister-in-law, you must hold on. If I survive and make it out of the Immortal Tomb, I'll do everything I can to rush to Dan State to save you."
As his gaze shifted, he also saw his teacher, Xie Bing.
She was his first dream lover after reincarnation.
Honestly, he and the beautiful, kind-hearted Teacher Xie Bing definitely shared more than an ordinary teacher-student bond, but never acted beyond propriety.
Back then, Chu Feng used personal connections to recomnd her to join the Golden Talisman Sect for cultivation.
She didn't seem to have aged, likely progressing well in her cultivation.
...
Wangxiang Platform was truly miraculous. As Chu Feng's gaze turned, his family, friends, and even enemies appeared one after another.
Life is like a dream, a fleeting mont, and in just a few decades, it all vanishes.
What is the struggle really for? What is one seeking?
He stood atop the peak, gazing intently, showing a contemplative expression. Unknowingly, his Dao heart also reached a new level.
As the Alchemy Venerate, everyone assud his pursuit was immortality.
Even Chu Feng himself thought so.
But after gazing at his holand, his family, friends, and enemies, and reflecting on his life, his Dao heart beca clearer.
Chu Feng didn't seek immortality; he sought to reunite with family and spend his remaining life with a few intimate companions. He wanted to enjoy the scenery with them, share their joys, share their sorrows, worries, and laughter, and then grow old together.
This is what constitutes a complete life.
And this is what Chu Feng truly pursued.
Dominating the world, achieving immortality, acquiring powerful strength through cultivation, all served this one goal.
Without strong backing, everything is empty talk.
Such an ideal happy life would be a luxury, even life itself would be.
He didn't know how much ti had passed, but Chu Feng slowly regained clarity.
He turned his gaze around and saw Blind Chang and others also absent-mindedly gazing into the distance. Conversely, relatively lower-level cultivators like Xiong Guansui and Chang Erliu had, like him, woken up.
It seed the higher one's cultivation, the deeper the inner obsessions.
They were less able to see their true desires, uncertain about what they actually sought.
Within this ti span, more people gradually climbed up.
Vice Cave Master Qi Jue, Blind Chang's n, and the Undying Tomb's Lord Corpse Blood all successfully reached Wangxiang Platform.
Those who failed to ascend faced two possibilities—either they were still climbing or had been dealt with by the Ghost Kings below.
"Silly girl, coming or not?" Chu Feng teased Xiong Guansui with a smile.
"Call 'silly girl' again, and don't bla for being rude. Use my na or call Miss Xiong." Xiong Guansui huffed with embarrassnt, glaring at Chu Feng.
"Fine, I'm leaving then!" Chu Feng walked off decisively without hesitation.
He wouldn't stay for an unrelated woman.
This ti, risking demise, he entered the Qiankun Sword Emperor's Tomb for one purpose only: to obtain the Qiankun Sword Emperor's legacy.
Xiong Guansui didn't follow; she really was a silly girl, remaining by Vice Cave Master Qi Jue's side.
Did she not recognize that Vice Cave Master Qi Jue never treated her like a disciple?
In danger, he'd let her lead.
Using her completely as cannon fodder.
Chu Feng flew forward rapidly, and unexpectedly, Ye Wu followed. She didn't seem concerned at all about Ye Yanying's safety.
"Hey, Chu Feng, wait for ! Don't forget your role, you're my boyfriend!"
Ye Wu said in a charming voice.
Her boldness was admirable; her skin was far thicker than Xiong Guansui's.
Chu Feng had already witnessed her audacity, so he wasn't surprised.
He rely replied lightly, "Miss Ye Wu, have you decided to beco my concubine?" In truth, he wasn't very willing to adventure alongside Ye Wu.
Li Shishi had warned him, sensing that Ye Wu's intentions weren't pure and that Chu Feng should be cautious.
After several interactions, Chu Feng discovered Ye Wu's mind was like the sea—imasurable and inscrutable.
He didn't want to be a male mantis, devoured by the female once the deed was done.
He wasn't that noble, nor foolish.
"Hmph, I'm just afraid you won't dare. None of your wives are ones to ss with. If they find out you've brought back two beauties, they'll eat you alive."
Ye Wu snorted coldly.
