Under such emotions, it was inevitable that they would catch up for a bit.
But it was only a brief reunion, after all,
At that moment, Master Liangqiu was still gazing up at the void, at the phantom images of the Four Sacred Beasts.
Whoosh—
But suddenly, the four sacred beasts above the void began to transform. Amidst the golden light that filled the sky, they surged into Chu Feng's body.
The world began to return to normal.
And Chu Feng opened his eyes.
"Chu Feng, your cultivation."
The instant Chu Feng opened his eyes, Master Liangqiu's gaze filled with amazement.
For Chu Feng's cultivation was no longer Third Rank Venerable — it was Fifth Rank Venerable.
Chu Feng had broken through two consecutive ranks of cultivation, and it hadn't even triggered heavenly lightning.
This meant that his breakthrough had nothing to do with the power of his bloodline.
Since it had nothing to do with his bloodline power, then there was only one other explanation — this was most likely the reward Chu Feng had gained from fusing with the Heaven-Given Divine Physique.
"
Compared to Master Liangqiu's excitement and joy, the old Daoist Ox-Nose appeared quite composed, as though all of this had been entirely within his expectations.
"There's no need for thanks. If you truly wish to repay me, why not take actual action instead?" the old Daoist Ox-Nose said to Chu Feng.
"Senior, if there is anything you need this junior's help with, please do not hesitate to ask," Chu Feng said.
"As it happens, there is one thing I need your help with."
When the old Daoist Ox-Nose said this, he glanced at Master Liangqiu, and a mischievous grin surfaced on his face.
"Ahem…"
"You old rascal, if you want me to leave, just say so."
After understanding what the old Daoist Ox-Nose meant, Master Liangqiu rolled his eyes at him, then turned to Chu Feng:
"Chu Feng, this old man will wait for you at the ancient teleportation formation."
As he spoke, Master Liangqiu launched himself into the air and flew off in the direction of the ancient teleportation formation.
Once Master Liangqiu had departed, only Chu Feng and the old Daoist Ox-Nose remained in this place.
"Senior, what matter is there that this junior can assist with?" Chu Feng asked proactively.
"In the Celestial Star Domain, I have an old friend."
"That old friend and I are both friends and rivals, and so the two of us made a wager."
"We each take a disciple and train them carefully. When the time comes, he sends his disciple to challenge mine, and I send my disciple to challenge his."
"If my disciple succeeds in the challenge, it means I win."
"If his disciple succeeds in the challenge, it means he wins."
"If both disciples succeed, or both fail, it counts as a draw."
"However, because I have never found a disciple to my liking, this wager has remained unfulfilled to this day."
"Now that I do have a disciple, it's only right to see it through."
"After you've settled your dispute with the
"This is the place where that old coot resides. When you get there, just say you're the disciple of Ox-Nose — that will be enough." As the old Daoist Ox-Nose spoke, he tossed a map to Chu Feng.
"But Senior, I'm not actually your disciple," Chu Feng said.
"What, you were perfectly willing just a moment ago, and now you won't even help with this small favor?"
