There were indeed more obstructive trials behind them, but with the help of the introductory secret manual, Chu Feng was able to resolve them all.
Now that Huahua was here, it was even easier — Chu Feng would provide the formation while Huahua supplied the strength to set it up.
"That barrier formation of yours really is something to envy," Huahua said.
She meant it. For a Spirit World Master, possessing such a formation was more useful than any treasure in existence.
It was a peerless weapon — one that defied the natural order.
After finishing her praise, she immediately began setting up the formation.
The moment Huahua started working, Chu Feng noticed a change. "Senior, your barrier combat power…?"
"Oh? Keen eyes, are you? You noticed?"
"My bloodline awakened. I've gained combat power that lets me fight one rank above my level. Though to be honest, it just awakened inside that barrier gate."
"For our generation, that's quite impressive. But in this era, I suppose it's nothing special."
"I've heard that Ling Xiao and Jie Tian of the Seven Realms Sacred Palace can do the same. You… should be able to as well, right?"
Huahua said it was nothing special, but there was no hiding the pride on her face.
"Yes, this junior can indeed do the same," Chu Feng confirmed.
Huahua smiled. She wasn't the least bit surprised.
Although she had never seen Ling Xiao or Jie Tian, she firmly believed that Chu Feng's barrier arts were far superior to theirs.
No one could be more extraordinary than this young man before her.
If there truly was someone, only one person came to mind.
But it was not someone of the current younger generation.
Because that was Chu Feng's mother.
With the two of them working together, they quickly arrived at the place Chu Feng had spoken of.
The underground palace had grown enormously spacious, like an entire subterranean world.
But ahead, a colossal mass blocked the way forward.
It glowed with a dazzling brilliance, like a second sun that had come to rest here.
Yet upon closer inspection, its layers were stacked one upon another in a structure that was incredibly intricate yet perfectly orderly.
Whether in size, neatness, or form, it resembled a vast city.
It also had an entrance — a grand gate that radiated overwhelming majesty.
But it was also a warning.
Trespassing here was forbidden.
After careful observation, they determined that breaking the formation required a single person acting alone. There was no way to tackle it as a team.
If anyone stepped inside, the formation would activate in its entirety.
"Senior, I wasn't lying to you, was I? Quite dangerous, isn't it?" Chu Feng said.
Anyone with eyes could see that this formation should not be entered.
Huahua nodded, then looked at Chu Feng. "Chu Feng, I want to try."
Hearing this, Chu Feng was startled and quickly said, "Senior, it really is dangerous."
"I know. And I can only find the method to break it after I enter, so you can't provide me with a formation diagram to solve it. Right?" Huahua said.
"That's correct. You'd have to rely on yourself. Besides, my methods for breaking formations would most likely be useless here."
"I believe this formation tests many things and is extremely complex. I'm not certain what's involved, so I have no confidence in success," Chu Feng said.
What he said was the truth. Chu Feng had always lived by one principle: Great fortune is found through great danger!!!
What was there to fear? Just go for it.
But the key was, there had to be fortune worth risking danger for.
Chu Feng had determined that this place held no fortune left — only peril. And if there was nothing to gain, there was no reason to take the risk.
"Chu Feng, you never lived through that era."
"You've never seen the scene of every faction trying to enter this place."
"This mobile palace holds special significance for us."
"I was lucky enough to find it — and just when its power had weakened."
"If I don't take this chance to try, I'm afraid I'll regret it for the rest of my life."
As Huahua spoke, her gaze remained fixed on the massive structure ahead.
