"Wow, you killed them with a formation? What kind of formation was that?" Her Majesty blinked her big eyes, growing even more curious.
"This formation is called Guardian's Nightmare."
"Guardian's Nightmare counteracts guardian formations that are bound to living beings."
"When I activate Guardian's Nightmare, it confuses the guardian formations on their bodies, preventing them from triggering." Chu Feng explained.
"I originally thought that none of those people had their guardian formations activate because the trial realm had some special restriction."
"But it turns out it wasn't the trial realm's restriction—it was yours." Her Majesty let out a sigh of admiration, though there was a hint of disappointment in her voice.
"But you went through all that trouble just to obtain this kind of formation?"
Her Majesty didn't think the formation was weak.
Being able to counteract guardian formations bound to living beings meant that if Chu Feng ever encountered someone bearing a guardian formation again, he would have nothing to fear.
Because those guardian formations could neither harm Chu Feng nor protect their bearers.
Such a formation was naturally powerful.
But it hadn't met Her Majesty's expectations. After all, Chu Feng had drawn nearly all the power within the trial realm into that scroll.
"My Dan Dan, this formation has absolutely no restrictions. No matter how powerful the guardian formation, as long as it's bound to the soul, my Guardian's Nightmare can counter it. How is that not impressive?"
Compared to Her Majesty, Chu Feng was extremely satisfied.
"No restrictions? Now that is somewhat interesting."
Seeing Chu Feng put it that way, Her Majesty's disappointed expression eased a little.
All techniques were inherently limited in some way. Take Chu Feng's divine technique, Divine Movement, for instance—though powerful, it came with many restrictions, requiring him to reach corresponding cultivation levels before he could unleash its corresponding power.
If there truly were no restrictions, that would be something else entirely.
"Furthermore, Guardian's Nightmare can also dissect guardian formations."
"Not only can it dissect an opponent's guardian formation, but it can also dissect the guardian formation within my own body," Chu Feng said.
"You mean, you can observe the guardian formation your father left inside you?" Her Majesty was overjoyed.
"Yes. I can not only clearly sense the guardian formation my father left in me, but I can also clearly perceive my father's aura and the structure of this formation."
"This formation has been inside my body all along, and this is the first time I've been able to sense it so clearly." At that moment, Chu Feng was just as excited.
This formation was far too concealed. Without Guardian's Nightmare, Chu Feng likely would never have been able to sense so clearly the guardian formation his father had left him.
"Most importantly, although this guardian formation requires martial force to control, I can observe it through Guardian's Nightmare as well, which makes it far easier to bring under my control," Chu Feng said.
"Once you control it, you'll be able to activate the formation at will?" Her Majesty asked.
"Mm, but this formation is very complex. It'll take some time to master," Chu Feng said.
"Then how powerful is it?" Her Majesty asked.
"That I can't say for certain. Although it's a martial force grand formation, it's extraordinarily complex. Using a formation to elevate one's power is a wondrous method."
"But I estimate that even an early-stage True God might not be able to withstand the might of this martial force formation. And that's just my guess—I can't be certain. The power is likely even greater."
"While I can't determine its exact power, what I can confirm is that this formation covers an incredibly wide area. If it were to trigger automatically rather than under my control, it would absolutely be capable of destroying an entire Upper Realm," Chu Feng said.
"I never knew your father was that powerful. Based on the timeline, when he left this guardian formation inside you, it must have been quite long ago."
"To be able to create such a formation back then, your father's cultivation must have been at least at the early or mid stage of True God."
"And your father couldn't have stopped growing. Wouldn't he be even stronger now?" Her Majesty said.
"My father is naturally very strong." Speaking of his father, a flash of pride appeared on Chu Feng's face.
"But having said that, your father's methods are ruthless indeed. Covering such a vast area, and he left it back when you were still in the Ancestral Martial Star Domain."
"If it had triggered back then, tsk tsk... who knows how many people would have been buried along with you."
"He says he won't interfere with you, but deep down he actually still worries about you." Her Majesty pouted her small lips.
At this, Chu Feng smiled as well—a warm smile.
Although he had very few opportunities to be with his father, ever since meeting him for the first time, he could feel his father's love for him.
To this day, he still firmly believed that his father not keeping him by his side to protect his growth was, in truth, for his own good.
He himself actually quite enjoyed this way of growing.
Although his rate of growth might be far slower than if his father had helped him, Chu Feng could feel that his solid cultivation base, his powerful conviction, and his iron willpower had all been forged through his own journey of tempering.
A journey where he had no one to lean on and could only rely on himself.
His father loved him, and likewise, his mother loved him dearly.
His parents had always been protecting Chu Feng—in their own way.
Subsequently, Chu Feng swept his great sleeve, and countless items rose from the earth, floating into his Universe Bag.
These were the treasures from the young generation of the Alchemy Immortal Sect. Not only their possessions, but even their origins had been confiscated by Chu Feng and refined by Her Majesty on the spot.
It was just a pity that these fellows' origins were far too weak and didn't provide much help to Her Majesty.
