"Brother Chu Feng, Brother Tianyi is right. This divine mountain truly has miraculous effects on cultivation."
"Right now, Brother Tianyi and I have already mastered the method of cultivating within this divine mountain. We can teach you, and the three of us can cultivate together." After Zhang Tianyi spoke, Jiang Wushang also stepped forward to persuade Chu Feng.
Upon hearing Jiang Wushang's persuasion, Chu Feng simply smiled faintly. Then he patted Jiang Wushang's shoulder, raised his wine cup, stood up, and said, "This cup is a toast to everyone here."
With that, Chu Feng drained the wine in his cup in one gulp.
"To our great hero!"
In the next moment, everyone present stood up simultaneously and drained their cups as well.
"Now that we've finished this cup, I have something to tell everyone. I hope you'll bear with me and listen." Chu Feng said.
When Chu Feng said this, the expressions on everyone's faces turned grave. They could more or less tell that what Chu Feng was about to say must be something very important.
"Master, Adoptive Father, esteemed seniors."
"The benefits this volcanic mountain has brought you go without saying. You all know that very well."
"But what this volcanic mountain has given you is absolutely not just benefits. It is even using you." Chu Feng said to the crowd.
"Using us? What do you mean?"
The moment Chu Feng said this, it sent waves of shock through the crowd. Everyone turned to look at Chu Feng with expressions of surprise and unease.
"Within this volcanic mountain, there is most likely something hidden. It is what grants you the power to advance your cultivation, but at the same time, it is also extracting some kind of power from within your bodies. Once that power reaches a certain threshold, it will awaken. When that happens, I'm afraid we will all be in grave danger." Chu Feng said.
"It's really like that?" Upon hearing this, the crowd grew even more panicked.
After all, they still trusted Chu Feng very much. He was the hero who had saved them before.
But while most people were panicking, Zhang Tianyi and Jiang Wushang both furrowed their brows tightly.
Chu Feng's words had not only failed to wake them up, but had actually stirred feelings of displeasure.
"Chu Feng, then what should we do?" Xianling Yue and the others asked one after another.
"While this thing has not yet awakened, we simply eliminate it." Chu Feng said.
"That would be best."
"Exactly. Chu Feng, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble you again."
The moment Chu Feng said this, he immediately received the crowd's unanimous agreement.
The reason for this was precisely because they believed in Chu Feng. They believed in his judgment.
"Wait a moment."
But just then, Zhang Tianyi suddenly spoke up and said, "Junior Brother Chu Feng, you say there is something hidden within this volcanic mountain. Then why don't you tell us exactly what that thing is?"
"It should be some kind of rare heavenly treasure, otherwise it wouldn't contain such bizarre power. If I had to say, I honestly cannot determine it right now. I would need to dismantle this volcanic mountain and delve deep inside to find out." Chu Feng said.
"Junior Brother Chu Feng, this is a divine mountain bestowed by the heavens. If you tear it down, wouldn't that be offending the heavens?" Zhang Tianyi asked.
"It seems Senior Brother Zhang doesn't believe what I'm saying." Chu Feng said.
"To be honest, I truly do not believe what you've said, because I have been cultivating here for several years now and have never discovered any danger of the sort that you speak of."
"All it has given me is power. Its help to me has been immense, like that of a gracious teacher."
