The Origin of the Vein, an existence that could conceal the heavens itself, was now converging together, surging toward Chu Feng's palm.
The trembling of heaven and earth was so violent that it felt as though this world could collapse and shatter at any moment.
Every faction revealed their life-saving means, protecting their younger generations.
But it wasn't just this world that was being turned upside down—the hearts of everyone present were in just as much turmoil.
"So this is Chu Feng, the son of Jie Ranqing."
Everyone was carefully sizing up Chu Feng.
Rumors were just rumors, and in their hearts, they were unwilling to acknowledge this unfamiliar young man.
But when this scene unfolded before them...
Especially after Jie Tianran's failure...
Everyone understood the weight of what Chu Feng was doing right now.
It was a weight that none of them could deny.
Awooo— But suddenly, a piercing roar echoed from within the Origin of the Vein, and immediately after, a massive phantom figure began to faintly materialize within it.
What was most terrifying was that, with this change in the Origin of the Vein, the trembling of heaven and earth grew even more violent.
Mountain ranges collapsed, oceans flooded...
The entire face of the world was rapidly changing because of this trembling.
And the Origin of the Vein that had been rapidly surging into Chu Feng's body began to slow down.
"Jie Tianran."
At that moment, Chu Feng looked toward the Palace Master of the Seven Realms.
"Do you know what this is?" Chu Feng asked.
The Palace Master of the Seven Realms did not answer, but he raised his head and stared intently at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng continued, "You should already have your suspicions, but let me tell you—your suspicions are correct."
"This thing is the power hidden within the Bloodline Heavenly River—the Origin of the Vein."
"The reason the Summit of the Nine Heavens was chosen to be held here is because of it."
If before, people had not been entirely certain, then Chu Feng's words were tantamount to announcing the definitive answer.
"Chu Feng, how can you be so certain? Do you know something?"
Countless secret voice transmissions rang in Chu Feng's ears—they all wanted further confirmation.
But the reason they sent secret transmissions instead of asking openly was, naturally, because they feared the Seven Realms Sacred Palace.
And so, Chu Feng pretended not to hear these secret transmissions, instead continuing to look at his grandfather, Jie Tianran.
"The Origin of the Vein is right here."
"Why doesn't your Seven Realms Sacred Palace send someone to seize it?"
"Could it be that the great Seven Realms Sacred Palace can't even find a single person worthy of the Origin of the Vein's recognition?"
"If that truly is the case, then by what right does your Seven Realms Sacred Palace look down on outsiders as trash?"
"Aren't you all trash as well?" Chu Feng asked.
The moment these words left his mouth, everyone couldn't help but turn their gaze toward the Seven Realms Sacred Palace, wanting to see their reaction.
If anyone else had said such things, it would have been nothing short of courting death.
But who was Chu Feng?
He had long since become irreconcilable enemies with the Seven Realms Sacred Palace.
And so, no one was surprised that he said such things—besides, he had every right to say them.
And so, everyone wanted to see how the Seven Realms Sacred Palace would respond.
"Chu Feng, stop putting on an act."
"If you can't hold on, just stop—why make these excuses?"
An elder of the Seven Realms Sacred Palace spoke up.
There was not the slightest hint of anger on his face—instead, he wore the air of someone who had seen through everything.
