Chapter 2116: Chapter 2383: Return to the Capital City Again!
Ren Feifan was somewhat stunned!
Such dense spiritual energy, how terrifying must this be?
If it could be absorbed, the benefits would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Ren Feifan couldn’t help but sigh!
A full minute passed before that spiritual energy dissipated completely, all gathering onto the Searing Soul Golden Needle.
Everything returned to calm.
Ren Feifan felt as though he had formed some kind of connection with the Searing Soul Golden Needle, and as he reached out his hand, the silver needle flew into his palm.
At this moment, the size of the Searing Soul Golden Needle had not changed, but the surface had gained many fine lines.
There were even ancient runes engraved on it.
The text was too small to discern anything with the naked eye.
The change in appearance was not important; what was important was that he could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within!
He suddenly thought of something and looked up at the old man: “When I used the Searing Soul Golden Needle before, there were certain limitations. Are those limitations still the same?”
The old man nodded: “The conservation of energy exists; the Searing Soul Golden Needle cannot be used by you indefinitely. Each time it is used, the spiritual energy within it will deplete, but it will automatically absorb external spiritual energy, much like human cultivation. As for how long it takes, it depends on the external spiritual energy it is exposed to.”
“If you don’t believe it, you can try using it now. The spiritual energy in this small world will soon make it full.”
Unable to contain his excitement, Ren Feifan glanced at the Searing Soul Golden Needle and nodded.
In the next second, he communicated with the Searing Soul Golden Needle and directly shot it towards a rock wall!
The Searing Soul Golden Needle shot out, carrying an aura that instilled fear in people’s hearts.
The aura roared, and the sound howled.
The entire space seemed to distort under the impact of this one needle.
Ding…
Boom…
Finally, the next moment, the Searing Soul Golden Needle landed on a mountain peak in the small world.
The crisp sound of collision rang out.
Sparks flared and danced.
A fierce wind swept, creating monstrous waves.
An intense aura surged skyward, breaking through the clouds, rushing straight for the heavens.
This aura seemed to be on the brink of breaking through to a void world.
Rumble…
Bouts of roaring sounds followed, with tangible waves rolling out in all directions.
“Crrr…”
Following the roar, the mountain peak of the small world was accompanied by cracking sounds.
The next second, it collapsed with a crash.
“How is this possible!”
At this moment, Ren Feifan’s gaze was filled with shock and astonishment.
The power of the Searing Soul Golden Needle was too eerie.
The old man smiled: “The small world is merely something I constructed; the mountains here are naturally not as strong as the external world, though not far from it either. Now you should understand the foundation of the Saint Doctor’s Gate as the ancient first sect.”
Ren Feifan nodded.
“Boy, I can also tell you one thing: the sect leader’s mental method compared to the Searing Soul Golden Needle…”
The old man hadn’t finished speaking when he noticed Ren Feifan had already disappeared from the original spot.
“That boy!”
…
Returning to the Saint Doctor’s Gate, Ren Feifan directly sought out the Dragon Lady.
This time returning to Hidden Sword Villa, anyone could be left out—but not the Dragon Lady.
After all, Hidden Sword Villa exists in the mundane world, and the Dragon Lady has longed to visit the mundane for a long time.
Although she can tear through space to many places, the boundary between the Hidden Gate and the mundane world, she cannot cross.
Perhaps because the spiritual energy in the mundane world is too thin, it cannot accommodate the Dragon Lady’s Space Law.
Thus, the Space Law isn’t entirely carefree.
Still, convenience is felt, and the Dragon Lady directly tore through space, bringing Ren Feifan to the entrance between the Hidden Gate and the mundane world.
Given Ren Feifan’s current cultivation, the Gatekeepers naturally dared not question too much.
Soon, the two arrived in the mundane world.
Perhaps it was Ren Feifan’s imagination; he found the spiritual energy in the mundane world seemed denser.
“Brother Feifan, did you notice it too? The spiritual energy in this mundane world has changed, giving me a feeling of revival…”
The Dragon Lady took a deep breath.
Ren Feifan nodded; not only had spiritual energy grown a bit denser, but the Heavenly Path’s suppression of strength had also eased considerably.
Strong practitioners from the Hidden Gate entering the mundane usually find their powers largely suppressed.
Yet even if Ren Feifan’s strength was suppressed, he was sure no one in Huaxia or abroad dared to challenge him!
Just as the two planned to descend the mountain, they encountered a familiar face!
Sima Qingyun!
Rather than calling him an acquaintance, it’s more like he had long been waiting for them!
In the Hidden Gate, Sima Qian posed no threat, but in the mundane world, Sima Qingyun did present some threat.
“Mr. Ren, after months of not seeing you, I finally meet you.”
Sima Qingyun chuckled and clasped his hands.
Ren Feifan’s expression remained calm, and he did not speak.
“Mr. Ren, how is my daughter in the Hidden Gate?” Sima Qingyun asked again.
“She’s fine, with my friends.”
Ren Feifan casually replied and continued walking down the mountain.
“Mr. Ren, I wonder if your venture into the mundane world is for…”
Sima Qingyun didn’t finish his sentence before Ren Feifan’s cold gaze swept over.
“Do my affairs concern reporting to you? Say another word of nonsense, and I won’t mind making you smoke away into oblivion!”
As his words landed, Sima Qingyun froze in place.
He even felt a sense of death envelop him.
He realized that, in months of not seeing, Ren Feifan’s strength had reached an extremely terrifying extent!
At least two realms had been crossed!
Once Ren Feifan disappeared, Sima Qingyun came out of his daze, muttering: “It seems Qian’er’s plan didn’t succeed. In less than half a year, this boy’s power has nearly doubled. I truly wonder what he has gone through during this time!
But this guy coming to the mundane world at this moment must have some crucial objective, perhaps revealing his secret right away…”
…
Ren Feifan returned to Huaxia but didn’t head to the Hidden Sword Villa immediately.
He and Dragon Lady directly made a trip to the mundane Saint’s Gate.
He had promised the mundane Saint’s Gate disciples that anyone with potential and strength would be brought into the Hidden Gate.
Yet, whether his expectations were too high, he found the mundane Saint’s Gate, in terms of aptitude and strength, fell far behind the Hidden Gate’s batch of disciples.
Thinking again, it made sense; the batch going to the Hidden Gate had the most outstanding talent, while the rest were naturally mediocre.
Mediocre cultivators gathering together, lacking enough ambition, naturally have a hard time breaking through.
However, these mundane Saint’s Gate disciples’ strength could at least shock a region within Huaxia, just without eligibility to explore the Hidden Gate.
Afterward, Ren Feifan arrived at the Capital City headquarters of the Feifan Group, meeting the spectacle-sporting Ye Chuchen.
“Saintly Master, what brings you here!” Ye Chuchen exclaimed, extremely excited upon seeing Ren Feifan!
