Chapter 450: The Book of Tiance!

Chapter 450: The Book of Tiance!

Three days had passed since Ling Feng had given Li Muqing a thorough beating outside Su Qingxuan’s courtyard.

During these days, Ling Feng had distributed the Purple Light Dust Pills he had refined. Each member of both the East Court and the East Court's sword team received one pill.

Naturally, those who had a good relationship with Ling Feng, such as Wang Yishan, Liu Yunfei, Qin Wanwan, Lin Xian'er, and her senior sister Yun Yiyi, also received a pill.

The Purple Light Dust Pill allowed martial artists like Su Qingxuan, who were in the Transformation Realm, to break through a minor realm instantly. For martial artists in the Pulse Formation Realm, such as Ouyang Jing, who had opened several meridian gates, taking the pill for the first time could open at least three or four more meridian gates.

Of course, for Ling Feng, the pill only helped consolidate his current realm. To open meridian gates, he still neededMeridian-Breaking Golden Pills.

Those who received the Purple Light Dust Pill were overjoyed. Gu Tengfeng was especially excited, patting Ling Feng on the shoulder repeatedly while praising him and almost bruising his shoulder.

While the East Court's sword team members were refining the medicinal strength of the Purple Light Dust Pills he gave them, Ling Feng left Tianwei Academy and went to the general’s mansion to deliver a pill to his student, Deng Yongshi.

Although General Deng had lifted Deng Yongshi’s confinement, she had not stepped outside and was busy with the stones in the backyard of Tianyi Pavilion, where Ling Feng had previously stayed.

Even General Deng marveled at Ling Feng’s methods, as in just three days, Deng Yongshi had completely transformed.

Due to General Deng's busy schedule, it was an old steward who received Ling Feng at the mansion.

The steward quickly led Ling Feng to Orchid Pavilion and smiled faintly, saying, "Mr. Ling, the young lady should still be at Tianyi Pavilion."

"Is that so?" Ling Feng touched his nose and nodded to the steward before heading towards Tianyi Pavilion.

Sure enough, before he even entered the courtyard, he heard sounds of heavy breathing from inside.

Ling Feng smiled faintly. "This girl is quite diligent."

Entering the courtyard, he saw a young girl covered in dust, busy moving stones around.

It had been over ten days since Ling Feng left the general’s mansion, and now two stone pillars, each as tall as a person, stood in the courtyard looking stable.

Ling Feng recalled that he had asked Deng Yongshi to stack six stone pillars. Surprisingly, she had already completed one-third of the task.

"Miss Deng, I didn't expect you to be so persistent!"

Ling Feng clapped and laughed from the doorway.

"Huh? Ling Feng, is that you?" Deng Yongshi, upon seeing Ling Feng, panicked and almost knocked down the third stone pillar she had painstakingly built.

"Well, I should be going now. Send my regards to your grandfather."

"Leaving already?" Deng Yongshi pouted, feeling reluctant.

"I have other matters to attend to. I’ll visit you again in the future," Ling Feng said, pausing before adding, "Since you’ve called me teacher, I should teach you some real skills."

"Hehe! Yay! What will you teach me?" Deng Yongshi’s eyes sparkled with excitement. Although her grandfather’s teachings were deeply rooted in battlefield combat skills, she had never quite liked those martial techniques.

Ling Feng, despite his youth, possessed an astonishing level of skill.

"I will teach you a blade attachment secret art called 'Swift Wind Blade.' Since you have a wind-based physique, this secret art will suit you perfectly."

Ling Feng said, pulling out the manual he had obtained from the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, and handed it to Deng Yongshi. "Study it carefully. I’ll test you next time I come to see if you’ve practiced diligently."

"Wow! You even have a blade attachment secret art!"

Deng Yongshi held the manual with admiration, unable to put it down. Her grandfather hadn’t taught her any blade attachment secret arts yet.

Ling Feng smiled faintly and noticed another manual in his hand. It was one of the nine manuals he had selected from the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder. He had used tremendous effort to open the other manuals but couldn’t open this one at the time.

When Ling Feng had retrieved the Swift Wind Blade, he accidentally took this one out as well.

As Ling Feng prepared to put the manual back, Deng Yongshi suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, Teacher Ling, what’s this manual you have? Tian...ce..., the title is incomplete!?"

"What? Tiance?" Ling Feng was taken aback, as the cover of the manual should have shown only the character "yuan."[1]

Ling Feng’s eyes twitched as he seemed to remember something. Turning the manual upside down, he saw that the character "yuan" had indeed split into "Tiance"![2]

Tiance!

A look of shock crossed Ling Feng’s eyes. Could it be that my status as the so-called prophesied one was due to obtaining this mysterious manual?

1. The character yuan means "source" ☜

2. Tiance is a word consisting of two characters: "tian" and "ce", hence why we use the phrase "split into" ☜

3. Author's note: Hehe, a plot point I set up a long time ago is finally surfacing. What is the relationship between this Book of Tiance and the Great Emperor Tiance? What does the character "yuan" signify? All the mysteries will be revealed when the imperial tomb opens. Stay tuned... ☜
