"You think I had you set up this arena just to toy with these juniors?"
"I wanted to see what they're made of."
"Now with these results, I'm quite satisfied," Zhao Tingxue continued.
"Tingxue, has Zhuyin truly already mastered the Immortal Force Feathered Garment?" Zhao Cangjin asked.
"She can already enhance her cultivation by a rank, but it's still unstable. Whether she can fully achieve it depends on this attempt."
"As long as Zhuyin's bloodline grows stronger, she will be able to fully master the Immortal Force Feathered Garment. Her strength will then give her a chance to vie for the power of the Divine Era."
"We absolutely cannot miss the benefits of the Divine Era," Zhao Tingxue said.
"Tingxue, I heard that the Ye Immortal Clan has also appeared. Is that true?" Zhao Cangjin asked cautiously.
"Yes. According to reliable sources, the Ye Immortal Clan has also broken free from their restraints and is planning their moves. They most likely have designs on the power of the Divine Era as well."
"That's why this is critically important. That's also why my father is willing to pay any price to open the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain," Zhao Tingxue said.
"Rest assured, I will do everything in my power to ensure the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain opens smoothly," Zhao Cangjin said.
"Due to the scarcity of heaven and earth energy, our current strength is indeed inferior to those ancient predecessors."
"But the juniors of this era are quite talented. I don't think there will be any issues with opening the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain."
"What truly matters is how many of those talents can be put to use by us. That's the key."
"I hope those few people won't let us down," Zhao Tingxue sighed.
Meanwhile, Chu Feng and the others had already returned to the warship of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan.
They recounted everything they had experienced at the Steel Mountain Peak to Little Fishy's parents and grandfather.
"It seems the strength of the Zhao Immortal Clan is truly not to be underestimated."
"The ancient races that are difficult to deal with are indeed not limited to just that God Clan. Our foundation still falls a bit short."
After learning what had transpired, Little Fishy's grandfather let out a sigh.
The matter of the God Clan had dealt him quite a blow.
"Senior, we will surpass them sooner or later," Chu Feng said.
"Hmm, this old man may not make it anymore, but I have faith in you youngsters," Little Fishy's grandfather chuckled.
"Big brother, do you think what that Zhao Tingxue said is trustworthy?" Little Fishy asked.
"Based on my observations, those mountain peaks on the map do match what she described," Chu Feng said.
"Then it seems not everyone in the Zhao Immortal Clan is bad. At least that Zhao Tingxue seems decent," Little Fishy said.
"It's hard to say what kind of person she is. I can only confirm that the mountain peaks' characteristics match her description. But as for the specifics, we'll need to verify that ourselves once we go in."
At this point, Chu Feng turned to Wang Qiang and patted his arm.
Chu Feng said nothing, but looked at Wang Qiang with a meaningful expression.
"Wh-what's wrong?" Wang Qiang asked.
"That Zhao Cangjin — he defeated you with that Immortal Dragon Spear technique?" Chu Feng asked.
"Yes, yes, yes, that move is really powerful."
"But bro, your formation was even stronger. What kind of formation was that?" Wang Qiang asked.
"That formation is one of the offensive formations from the Heavenly Dao Secret Canon, called the Heavenly Dao Meridian Subduing Formation."
"It's specifically designed to counter those who use their bloodline to boost their combat power. However, it needs to be set up in advance, and your own combat strength has to be greater than your opponent's — otherwise it's hard to bring out its true effectiveness," Chu Feng said.
"Impressive, impressive."
"Your barrier techniques these days are getting more and more… more and more unfathomably profound." Wang Qiang gave Chu Feng a thumbs up.
"If I used that formation on you, it wouldn't have any effect," Chu Feng said.
"Bro, you're way, way, way overestimating me. I'm not that powerful."
