Chapter 320 -318: Test

“Swish!”

Feng Yinghai’s Primordial Spirit transformed into his figure dressed in a deep red long robe, drifting directly down into a green wilderness.

“Hmm?”

Feng Yinghai furrowed his brow, the wood attribute spiritual power here was dense, the entire scenery was lush and vibrant, and deep within the earth below bubbled an endless vitality.

This was actually the Evergreen Heart Realm.

“Has this boy cultivated his Evergreen Technique to such a level?”

Feng Yinghai’s gaze turned sharp, controlling his Primordial Spirit to roam around this Divine Soul World, eventually confirming that it was indeed the Divine Soul Heart Realm formed by the sixth layer of the Evergreen Technique. Although this boy only reached the sixth layer, he had independently evolved into the Divine Soul Heart Realm, clearly demonstrating his profound talent and mastery in the Evergreen Technique.

Such a person, if left unchecked, might one day achieve Nascent Soul.

“Humph!”

A fiery spark glinted in Feng Yinghai’s eyes, this made things easier. Ning Cheng’s talent was exactly what he hoped for, ensuring that Ning Cheng’s Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique would eventually surpass Xu Baisheng and Meng Yuliang.

More importantly, if he replaced the other two, his two disciples wouldn’t need to lose their lives.

Suddenly, Feng Yinghai’s eyes filled with a smug color, and he gently exited Ning Daoran’s Divine Soul World.

However, Feng Yinghai was unaware that deep beneath the ground under his feet, there lay an even more vast and boundless Divine Soul World. In this world, where eternity remained evergreen between heaven and earth, a blood-colored demon dragon coiled above the lush mountains, overlooking the entire Divine Soul World with a dominating stance!

…

“Sigh~~~”

Feng Yinghai retracted his Nascent Soul, and at this moment, Ning Daoran’s previously pale eyes regained their pupils.

“Vice Palace Master, what just happened…”

Ning Daoran feigned ignorance, acting as if he was unaware of the other’s probing.

“No need to be surprised, I was just assessing the foundation of your cultivation.”

Feng Yinghai casually smiled and said, “Ning Cheng, your cultivation of the Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique is quite remarkable, even surpassing Baisheng and Yuliang, here are fifty Green Essence Pills. Take one each month, it will greatly benefit the cultivation of your Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique.”

…

For a moment, both Xu Baisheng and Meng Yuliang were dumbfounded.

“Thank you, Vice Palace Master, for bestowing the pills!”

Ning Daoran accepted the elixir pills, respectfully saying, “Ning Cheng is grateful for the Vice Palace Master’s recognition, I will spare no effort and will not disappoint you!”

“Very good!”

Feng Yinghai had no interest in checking Fu Yan’s Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique anymore, with a wave of his sleeve he said, “All of you may go, continue to diligently cultivate. Except for Ning Cheng, none of you should slack off. Everyone must participate in this trial, the result is still unknown.”

“Yes, Master!”

Everyone bowed in unison and left.

…

Late at night, inside the secluded chamber of the main house.

The light of an oil lamp flickered, in the chamber was placed a large wooden tub filled with cold water and ice, and on the water’s surface floated small Ice Soul Divine Stones, each only the size of a fingernail.

Inside the tub, a woman bathed while clothed, it was Feng Jingshan.

However, Feng Jingshan’s condition was quite bizarre at this moment. Reddish veins appeared on her face as if her body was being devoured, and similar reddish veins spread out from her chest, back, and armpits, her entire body emitting fresh blood as if she were a burning paperfolk about to turn to ashes!

The Ice Soul Divine Stones in the tub continuously released the power of the Ice Soul, neutralizing the fire poison within Feng Jingshan’s body.

“Jingshan, it’s been hard on you… Daddy is sorry…”

Feng Yinghai sat despondently beside the tub, his aged eyes brimming with tears as he looked at his daughter’s pale figure, asking, “Does it hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt, I don’t feel the pain… Daddy, don’t be sad.”

Feng Jingshan endured the severe pain, biting her red lips, said, “Daddy… every time the fire poison acts up, so many Ice Soul Divine Stones are consumed, it’s really wasteful…”

“It’s okay.”

Feng Yinghai said, “In our Taoist Palace, there are many Ice Soul Divine Stones, these few don’t matter.”

“But…”

Tears shimmered in Feng Jingshan’s eyes: “Daddy, are you really planning to let Senior Brother Ning be the scapegoat? If so, I’d rather remain untreated. Senior Brother Ning is so kind, I don’t want…”

“Stop talking!”

Feng Yinghai’s eyes turned cold as he said, “Jingshan, Daddy can do anything for you except for the treatment. I have looked into Ning Cheng’s background; he joined the Fierce Sun Dao Palace with at least five layers of Evergreen Technique. Even if he’s not harboring ill intentions, he definitely has some motives. Such a person is not worth mourning, why speak for him?”

“Daddy!”

Tears streamed down Feng Jingshan’s face, “But to use someone else’s life to save your daughter, do you want me to live in guilt for the rest of my life? If that’s the case, even if the fire poison is cured, I would rather die!”

“Nonsense!”

Feng Yinghai rebuked harshly, “Daddy only knows that it’s better to live poorly than to die well. As long as you’re alive, there’s hope in Daddy’s heart. If you die, Feng Yinghai might as well die with you. Do you want your Daddy to abandon the vast inheritance of the Fierce Sun Dao Palace and die with you?”

“But I…”

Feng Jingshan sat in the tub, hugging her knees, sobbing uncontrollably.

“Jingshan, Dad also had no choice…”

Feng Yinghai said, “If Ning Cheng really dies outside the Nine Hells Ice Demon Cave, as his father, I will definitely bury him with the rites of an Inheriting Disciple and find Ning Cheng’s clan to generously take care of them. Anyone with a Spirit Root will be admitted to the Inner Sect of the Fierce Sun Dao Palace, and if he has brothers or sisters with Spirit Roots, I will bear all their expenses before Nascent Soul formation. How does that sound? It should be considered fair to the lad.”

Feng Jingshan just wept, murmuring “Senior Brother Ning” softly.

“Sigh…”

Feng Yinghai sighed, not knowing how to console her.

…

Soon after, a Sound Transmission Talisman flew into the secret chamber, containing a message from Xu Baisheng wanting to see Feng Yinghai.

“Your Senior Brother Xu has come, I’ll go meet him.”

Feng Yinghai rose up and as he left the secret chamber, he cast several Prohibitions, isolating Feng Jingshan within the secret chamber.

“Bai Sheng, what is it?”

Feng Yinghai sat on a rattan chair, casting a casual glance at the Chief Disciple.

“Master!”

Xu Baisheng bowed deeply and said, “Disciple feels that Master has recently handled many matters concerning Junior Brother Ning quite inappropriately, Disciple boldly requests Master to reconsider your orders!”

“Bai Sheng…”

Feng Yinghai’s gaze gradually turned cold, “You have a mild temperament, and have never defied me since childhood. Why are you so bold on this matter, daring to speak to me like this?”

“Master…”

Xu Baisheng still did not raise his head, “The treatment of Young Junior Sister was originally a matter for Heavenly Mechanism Peak, and the trial of the Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique should be the same, we shouldn’t have involved outsiders. Junior Brother Ning Cheng, although talented, is after all an outsider. What if he backs out at the last minute? What about Young Junior Sister’s illness then? Master, please trust me, within ten years, I will cultivate the Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique to the Fifth Layer and personally escort Young Junior Sister to the Nine Hells Ice Demon Cave for healing!”

“You…”

Feng Yinghai was somewhat choked with emotion, his eyes sharp, seemingly weighing something.

“Bai Sheng, what you really care about is not this, but the promise I made years ago, that whoever can cure your Young Junior Sister’s Fire Poison Illness can marry her, right?”

“Yes!”

Xu Baisheng clenched his teeth and said, “Master, Disciple truly has sincere feelings for Young Junior Sister, without any personal agenda. Disciple would rather give up his own supreme path prospects just so Young Junior Sister doesn’t have to endure the agony of Fire Poison!”

“Very well.”

A chill flickered in Feng Yinghai’s eyes, “Don’t say I didn’t give you this opportunity. Three days later, I will give you and Ning Cheng a challenge. If you can defeat Ning Cheng in this challenge, I will have Ning Cheng withdraw; if you lose, just obediently participate in the trial with Ning Cheng. Whoever is more suitable will save Jingshan. Are you willing?”

“Disciple is willing!”

“Very good.”

Feng Yinghai pulled out a Jade Bottle from his bosom and handed it over, saying, “Your challenge is to cross the Cold Soul Valley through the cracks in the Prohibition in three days. Whomever reaches the other side first, wins. This is a Nine Revolutions Primordial Yang Pill, keep it for lifesaving. If you can’t hold on in the Forbidden Land, take this medicine, it can save your life.”

“Yes, thank you, Master!”

Xu Baisheng frowned slightly, “And Junior Brother Ning…”

“There is only one Nine Revolutions Primordial Yang Pill.”

“Yes!”

…

Three days later.

In the afternoon, at the crack in the Prohibition of the Cold Soul Valley.

Ning Daoran, dressed in the Main Peak Protector’s attire, with a stomach full of curses he dared not voice, practiced the Evergreen Returning to Origin Technique—this challenge was too much; suddenly there was this task of crossing the Cold Soul Valley, and it was even a competition with Xu Baisheng, is this fair?

He was just an Early-stage Foundation Establishment! At least on the surface…

“Ning Cheng.”

Feng Yinghai, with one hand behind his back, surrounded by the formidable breath of a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, said, “Crossing Cold Soul Valley is no trivial matter; you might encounter extremely lethal currents, and even someone at the Golden Core stage might not be able to turn danger into safety. Have you considered giving up? If you’re unwilling to accept the challenge, you can give up now, but by doing so, you will also give up the opportunity to obtain the sixth chapter.”

“Ah?”

Ning Daoran frowned, “Vice Palace Master, please rest assured, disciple will give his all!”

“Hmm.”

Feng Yinghai nodded with a smile, this boy was indeed very eager for the sixth chapter. Indeed, looking at the entire Fierce Sun Dao Palace, from Outer Disciple to True Disciple, who isn’t eager for the complete Nine Yang Furnace Divine Technique!

“Junior Brother Ning.”

Beside him, Fu Yan frowned, “Be very careful, if you feel you can’t hold on, just return the same way; the way back is at least safer than the way forward.”

“Alright, thank you Brother Fu for the reminder.”

Xu Baisheng also sent a complex look, “Junior Brother Ning, maybe you shouldn’t…”

“Senior Brother Xu, no need to say more, I won’t give up.”

“Well then…”

The next moment, Feng Yinghai lightly waved his hand, “Alright, set off now, I’ll be waiting outside the crack in the Prohibition on the other side. Whoever arrives first wins; let’s not delay any further.”

“Yes!”

Xu Baisheng and Ning Daoran turned and stepped into the Forbidden Land, one resolute and unswerving, the other cautious, careful not to reveal his true strength.
