Chapter 129 Spending 4 Billion to Become a Master
"rise--"

Frozen pears completely restored the Heavenly Stem of Giant Spirit Peak.

Liu Chengfeng shouted loudly, and a sea of ​​blood rose, true blood surged, and the firepower was turned up to the most intense.

The earth's fire surged like a raging tide, and the silver flames roared like a true dragon, their scales gleaming.

Under the powerful firepower, the entire Giant Spirit Road mine was refined and melted into juice.

The crack in the pillar at the other end was also melted.

The mineral juice was poured into it, and they blended together.

True blood is like a hammer, striking down again and again, removing impurities and quenching the ore.

Fusion mines, refine the Heavenly Pillar.

After round after round of refining, the Heavenly Pillar was completely forged, becoming a seamless whole without any visible flaws.

Liu Chengfeng also reinforced the Heavenly Pillar, tempering the entire structure to make it even stronger and more solid.

"It's done—"

Liu Chengfeng shouted and made Fuzheng let go of the frozen pear.

"Success!"

After letting go, Giant Spirit Peak stood tall in Xuanze Abyss, towering into the clouds, and Frozen Pear was overjoyed.

"It worked, it worked."

Dongli rushed down excitedly, even more excited than Liu Chengfeng. She picked up Liu Chengfeng and shook him wildly.

"You shook me so hard I threw up."

Liu Chengfeng was both amused and exasperated.

Frozen Pear felt embarrassed, so she quickly let go, rushed out, and shouted loudly outside.

Beneath the Giant Spirit Peak, tens of thousands of people gathered. Seeing the Giant Spirit Peak standing tall once again, they were too excited to speak.

"The Lord Overlord is wise and mighty——"

Emperor Xuanwu was so excited he could not express it. The Giant Spirit Peak stood tall, protecting their imperial city from disaster.

Beneath the towering peak of Juling, cheers and applause resounded endlessly, and lanterns and decorations adorned the area, marking a joyous occasion.

Seeing that the repair was successful and the Giant Spirit Peak stood tall, Liu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground with a fart. He was exhausted from working on it for so long.

The moment he relaxed his guard, Liu Chengfeng became alert and instantly sensed something.

"who--"

Liu Chengfeng suddenly stood up, his eyes locked on a corner, drawing up a great force, the Heavenly Demon Tree appeared, and the bow was drawn to its fullest extent.

With the force of a shot to the heavens, the arrow is like a giant peak, ruthless and merciless, locking onto the opponent.

"Young master, please don't misunderstand."

A beautiful figure emerged from the corner, sword energy rose, and the Sword God Jilan appeared.

"Misunderstanding? I don't think so."

Liu Chengfeng's eyes turned cold, his killing intent rising, his arrow shooting into the sky, his shrill cries never ceasing, ready to unleash a deadly arrow at any moment.

"Jilan has no ill intentions towards the young master; she is merely curious and couldn't resist coming down to see what's going on."

"It was Ji Lan's fault. I apologize to you, young master, and ask for your forgiveness."

Ji Lan, the Sword God, dispersed his sword energy to show his sincerity and solemnly bowed to Liu Chengfeng to admit his mistake.

Having ascended to the third rank of Godhood, she is a generation of Sword God and the third most important figure in the Great Wilderness Peak Heaven. Her status is lofty, and she is able to bow her head and admit her mistakes with sincerity and earnestness.

"How long have you been here?"

Although Liu Chengfeng's murderous aura had lessened considerably, he still kept a wary eye on Sword God Jilan.

The Sword God Jilan is hunting him down as the murderer. If he were to suddenly attack, he would definitely be killed.

"I have been here for quite a while. Ji Lan really meant no harm to you, young master. Please forgive my rudeness."

She sincerely admired Ji Lan, the Sword God, for his sincere apology.

She came down when Liu Chengfeng started learning mining, and she witnessed firsthand the birth of a Four-Refined Innate Swordsmith from scratch.

Becoming a fourth-level innate swordsmith in such a short time was incredibly shocking for her.

She possessed extraordinary talent and was praised by others, but compared to Liu Chengfeng, she was merely a firefly.

What she admired even more was Liu Chengfeng's spirit of tireless pursuit and dedication.

With such extraordinary talent, he still worked hard and never slacked off.

Such spirit earned the sincere admiration of the Sword God Jilan.

A master alchemist and a master swordsmith with four levels of innate refinement—these two identities overlap, making this man radiate brilliance and command respect.

"I know that you are the one who killed Sima Xuanjue."

Seeing that Liu Chengfeng was still not letting his guard down, the Sword God Jilan spoke frankly and openly.

Liu Chengfeng's heart tightened, and his gaze turned cold.

"However, I have no intention of arresting the young master, nor do I intend to avenge Sima Xuanjue."

"why?"

Liu Chengfeng stared at Ji Lan Sword God.

"I had no choice in the matter. I was simply chosen by Sima Wujian as his fiancée, to be Sima Xuanjue's divine fire in the future."

Sword God Jilan sighed softly, his expression darkening.

"Designated priest?"

He knew about this.

"Yes, how could Jilan Kingdom possibly stand against the Divine Dynasty? It has no choice but to comply."

Ji Lan Sword God told Liu Chengfeng about his most shameful secret.

Mei Jiji, the Sword God of Jilan, was born in the Jilan Kingdom. The kingdom had shown him great kindness, teaching him the Dao and helping him cultivate, which ultimately enabled him to become a Sword God.

She also became the guardian deity of the Jilan Kingdom.

Sima Wujian, a powerful figure in the Divine Dynasty, was in charge of the Great Wilderness Peak. He selected the Sword God Jilan and designated her as the fiancée of his son, Sima Xuanjue.

Its purpose was to ignite the divine fire for Sima Xuanjue in the future, making him a divine official.

After all, Sima Xuanjue was not a demigod at that time, so what great figure who had ascended to godhood would condescend to do so?

Sima Wujian paved the way for his son, and the Jilan Kingdom came under his control, leaving the Jilan Sword God with no choice but to comply.

"Young Master, by killing Sima Xuanjue, you have saved me."

Ji Lan Sword God smiled bitterly and bowed to Liu Chengfeng.

Liu Chengfeng looked at the Sword God Jilan, slowly released his Heaven-Shooting Stance, and sat down.

What are you spying on?

Liu Chengfeng didn't believe she had come down for no reason.

Sword God Jilan approached and sat down beside him, trusting him unconditionally.

"Young master, have you not considered why the Giant Spirit God would betray us and break the pillar of heaven?"

Sword God Jilan looked up at Liu Chengfeng with utmost sincerity.

"Why?"

Liu Chengfeng was deeply shaken. He had pondered this question and suspected that there was treasure hidden here.

"Sima Wujian gave the order."

The Sword God Jilan revealed earth-shattering news.

"Sima Wujian instructed this?"

Liu Chengfeng was greatly surprised.

"That's not right either. What conditions would make the Giant Spirit God betray the Queen of the Underworld?"

Liu Chengfeng had doubts. As the ruler of the peak heavens, the Giant Spirit God had the backing of the Yin Queen and held a sufficiently high position, receiving a massive amount of resources.

What kind of temptation would make the Giant Spirit God betray the Queen of the Underworld?

"What if one could enter the divine court and be appointed a divine general by the chief god?"

Sword God Jilan looked intently at Liu Chengfeng.

"this--"

Liu Chengfeng paused for a moment. The three great dynasties, ruling over the entire Qingmeng Realm, were indeed a great temptation. "The ruler of the Nine Peaks Heaven in the Southern Frontier is indeed in a high position and has a lot of resources, but guarding the Heavenly Gate is a matter of life and death."

"Not everyone is willing to stay in one place for their whole life. If one can join the Divine Dynasty as a general, the world is vast and there is much to be done."

"If the main god ascends to the heavens one day, as a divine general, I will have the opportunity to accompany him, which is far more promising than guarding the southern border to the death."

The Sword God Jilan revealed the secret behind it.

"The temptation is indeed great."

Liu Chengfeng's doubts were resolved; with such a temptation, the Giant Spirit God indeed had a reason to betray the Queen of the Underworld.

"The Queen of the Underworld is no weakling."

Liu Chengfeng was even more curious. Yin Hou was able to occupy the Three Peaks Heaven alone, which showed how terrifying her strength was. Why did she allow the Divine Dynasty to act in this way?

"I don't know. The Queen of the Underworld is extremely mysterious. Very few people have ever seen her. Legend has it that even the Pure Daoist Qinglian may not have seen her."

"How is that possible? She couldn't just suddenly appear and dominate the three peaks of heaven."

Liu Chengfeng found it unbelievable.

"That's the problem. Yin Hou is even older than Qinglian Chundao, and possibly even older than Tianguan. She existed before Tianguan even existed."

"Holy crap, really?"

Liu Chengfeng was speechless.

"If the Heavenly Gate is the legendary Imperial Gate, then the Queen of the Underworld is likely even older than the Green Emperor."

Ji Lan, the Sword God, was sincere and told Liu Chengfeng everything he knew.

"How is that possible? Isn't the Azure Emperor the first main god of the Azure Mist Realm?"

Liu Chengfeng found it unbelievable.

"Everything is unknown, because no one knows the Queen of the Underworld."

Sword God Jilan shook his head slightly.

Liu Chengfeng was stunned. His cheap master really thought highly of him. No one knew about the Empress Yin, yet she insisted on sending him to find out her background.

If the Queen of Yin is even older than the Azure Emperor, then what kind of being is she?

After the Azure Emperor, countless main gods emerged, such as the Golden Crow God and the Zen God of Mount Tai, who have long since ascended to the heavens.

Why is the Queen of the Underworld still here? Why does she stay here and not leave?
A thousand questions flashed through Liu Chengfeng's mind.

"No, why did Sima Wujian instigate the Giant Spirit God to rebel?"

Liu Chengfeng found it strange.

"For the sake of Daoyuan Peak."

As the third most powerful figure in the Great Wilderness Peak, Sword God Jilan knew many secrets, which she revealed to everyone.

What is Daokuangyuan Peak?

"The source of the Daokuang Shenchuan, also known as the Ancestral Peak of the Azure Emperor, is said to be the place where the Azure Emperor may have originated, and even the legendary ancestral vein may be located here."

"In my guess, Sima Wujian may have suspected that there was a root beneath Xuanze Abyss, so he instructed the Giant Spirit God to smash the Heavenly Pillar."

Ji Lan Sword God told Liu Chengfeng everything he knew.

Liu Chengfeng was startled, and many thoughts came to mind.

The faceless stone statue with one arm carrying a basket once spoke of things like the root of the ancestral vein and the primordial essence of the ancestors.

There's nothing here.

Liu Chengfeng shook his head; although he had doubts, his senses had not detected anything.

"I don't know either. I have told you everything I know, young master."

Having no other leads to investigate, the Sword God Jilan rose and bid farewell to Liu Chengfeng.

Liu Chengfeng came to his senses and left Xuanze Abyss.

Both the Xuanwu Ancient Kingdom and the Luming Ancient Kingdom were filled with celebration as the Heavenly Pillar was repaired and the Peak stood tall.

Giant Spirit Peak Heaven has returned once again, becoming one of the Nine Great Peak Heavens.

Emperor Xuanwu and Empress Mulan led their entourage to congratulate Liu Chengfeng.

"The message was sent to the Yin Queen, the peak of the sky."

The repairs were successful. Liu Chengfeng ordered Emperor Xuanwu and Empress Mulan to relocate, and informed Empress Yin Miaofengtian.

It's time to see the afterlife.

"Master——"

In the joyous atmosphere, Dongli bowed deeply, wanting to become Liu Chengfeng's disciple.

"Uh, when did I become your master?"

"Disciple Dongli, seeking to become a disciple and learn the Dao, please teach me how to forge a sword."

The frozen pear could no longer kneel in worship.

Liu Chengfeng was dumbfounded and stunned.

"I learned my sword-making skills from you."

Liu Chengfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Learning has no order of precedence; those who achieve mastery come first. My master's exemplary sword-making skills are worthy of my lifelong study and practice."

Dongli wanted to become Liu Chengfeng's apprentice, so he explained his family history, genealogy, and ancestors for eighteen generations to show his innocence and sincerity.

He even donated all of his assets, including the previous three billion spirit stones, to his master as a means of apprenticeship and further study.

Dongli sincerely became Liu Chengfeng's apprentice, and she personally witnessed Liu Chengfeng's transformation from nothing to a master swordsmith with four levels of refinement.

She was certain that Liu Chengfeng could guide her to the fifth level of cultivation, and that it would be the greatest honor for her to become his disciple.

“I am not that kind of person, I am not that kind of person.”

Four billion spirit stones were laid out before him, glittering brightly, dazzling Liu Chengfeng's eyes.

Liu Chengfeng squinted, unable to open his eyes wide.

Four billion—such a fortune! Liu Chengfeng beamed with joy.

In the end, Liu Chengfeng accepted Dongli as his apprentice.

"Thank you, Master. Your disciple is willing to serve you with all his heart and soul."

"Fifth Refinement, here I come."

Frozen Pear was excited. She tossed her ponytail, clenched her fist, and raised it with great ambition.

Liu Chengfeng returned the forty billion spirit stones to Dongli as a gift from his master to his disciple.

Dongli was overjoyed and very eager to learn, pestering Liu Chengfeng to teach her sword-making techniques.

Liu Chengfeng was generous and passed on all his sword-making skills to Dongli.

His sword-making skills also originated from Dongli, and his refined insights were further developed by Tianqiu.

The greatest truths are the simplest, and the most exquisite are the most refined.

Originally derived from her own sword-forging skills, Dongli practiced them with ease.

Liu Chengfeng then offered guidance, correcting her shortcomings and helping her to master the timing and refine her true blood, bringing her closer to the pinnacle.

In a short period of time, the frozen pears have been promoted from low-grade to mid-grade, and it won't be long before they become high-grade.

"What exactly is this art of vein tracing and mineral exploration?"

Liu Chengfeng was interested in another skill of the swordsmith and asked Dongli for advice.

"Observe the qi, probe the earth, examine the metal..."

Dongli also passed on her skills in vein finding and mineral exploration to him.

They learned from each other, master and apprentice.

After learning the art of vein tracing and mineral exploration, Liu Chengfeng discovered that he found it easier to explore the earth.

He possesses the ability to perceive and listen to the heavens and the ability to see the truth through the celestial eye; he is inherently capable of seeing the heavens and earth and sensing the ten directions.

His further practice in vein-finding and mineral exploration elevated his senses and perception to another level.

"So rudimentary it's unsightly."

When Liu Chengfeng was practicing the art of vein finding and mineral exploration, the stars in the sky looked down on him and criticized it as utterly worthless.
