“Little Junior Brother, you actually know how to disguise yourself! Did you draw that portrait just now?” Guo Linshan looked at Chen Fei in shock.
Setting aside sword techniques and movement techniques, as far as Guo Linshan knew, Chen Fei was also skilled in archery and alchemy. Moreover, he had even joined the Alchemist Alliance with his alchemy skills, something that many professional alchemists couldn’t achieve. And now, he possessed a disguise technique as well. Chen Fei seemed to be all-rounded, making Guo Linshan feel somewhat useless in comparison.
“Rogue cultivators always have more tricks up their sleeves. Otherwise, it’s very easy to encounter danger,” Chen Fei replied with a smile.
“Junior brother, do you have some misconceptions about rogue cultivators?” Guo Linshan wanted to roll his eyes. If rogue cultivators were so versatile, what would happen to the disciples of their sects? Moreover, was the outside world so dangerous now that they needed to learn so many things?
“It’s not a burden to have more skills,” Chen Fei laughed.
“Did that witch see your real appearance?” Guo Linshan asked, looking at the vivid portrait in his hand. With such drawing skills, would his junior brother be able to draw anything he wanted to see in the future?
Thinking about this, Guo Linshan couldn’t help but feel a little envious. What was going on?
“When I saw someone blocking the way, the first thing I did was change my appearance,” Chen Fei explained, shaking his head.
“Very cautious!” Guo Linshan couldn’t help but praise him. Then, he asked curiously, “So, who did you transform into?”
“It became him,” Chen Fei replied, wiping his face from top to bottom and changing into Kuang Dingbo’s appearance. It wasn’t an exact replica, as it was quite difficult to achieve muscle movement, but it was still imaginative.
“This is good!” Guo Linshan couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Chen Fei’s transformation. He could instantly recognize it as Kuang Dingbo. Thinking that Kuang Dingbo might be targeted by the Divine Flame Sect, Guo Linshan felt much relieved.
“Senior Brother Guo, I’ll leave this portrait with you. If there’s any news, remember to let me know,” Chen Fei said after some thought.
“Alright, I’ll discreetly inquire about it,” Guo Linshan nodded. Whether it was the sect being cautious or reporting it to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, he would handle it.
The night quickly passed, and the next morning, many people from the Primordial Sword Sect arrived, including Feng Xiupu.
“Master!” Guo Linshan and the others respectfully bowed upon seeing Feng Xiupu.
“I know what happened. You all did well,” Feng Xiupu glanced at the disciples and praised them. “To prevent the Divine Flame Sect from seeking revenge, we will stay here for the next few days.”
Everyone smiled. This way, they wouldn’t have to worry about the Divine Flame Sect and their safety would be ensured.
As usual, Feng Xiupu and the others supervised the disciples during the gathering of herbs, escorted the convoy, and guarded the camp to prevent any surprises from the Divine Flame Sect.
A day passed quickly, and night fell.
“How has your cultivation been recently? Have you been slacking off?” With nothing else to do, Feng Xiupu began to test the disciples’ cultivation progress one by one. In no time, he stood in front of Chen Fei. Coincidentally, Guo Linshan was also standing beside him.
“Master, your disciple has already mastered the fifth stage of the Origin Connection Technique and will soon break through to the Visceral Tempering stage,” Guo Linshan respectfully informed him.
Feng Xiupu’s eyes lit up. Considering Guo Linshan’s age, reaching the fifth tier of the Origin Connection Technique was commendable. Once he broke through to the Visceral Tempering realm, he would have a chance to compete for the legacy of a true disciple.
If he succeeded, it would bring recognition to their team.
Moreover, as a teacher, Feng Xiupu always hoped that his disciples would excel and become true disciples of Primordial Sword Sect. Even if they didn’t stand out, Feng Xiupu’s years of guidance wouldn’t be in vain.
“Very good. When we return, you must break through to the Visceral Tempering realm. With your fifth tier of the Origin Connection Technique, breaking through should come naturally,” Feng Xiupu said with a nod.
“Yes, Master!” Guo Linshan nodded solemnly.
“How’s your cultivation been recently?” Feng Xiupu smiled as he looked at Chen Fei. “The Starry Night Sword and the Soul Chasing Step are extremely difficult to comprehend. If you have any doubts about the cultivation techniques, feel free to ask. Also, although you are compatible with the second level of the Origin Connection Technique, pay attention to the key points.”
“Master, I’m not familiar with the Soul Chasing Step, but Little Junior Brother has cultivated the Starry Night Sword quite well,” Guo Linshan interjected before Chen Fei could respond.
“Oh? How so?” Feng Xiupu asked curiously.
“Little Junior Brother, show Master what you can do,” Guo Linshan winked at Chen Fei. Chen Fei shook his head and laughed, then took his long sword and moved to an empty space nearby.
“Master, please give me some guidance,” Chen Fei requested.
Feng Xiupu nodded, indicating that Chen Fei could proceed.
Chen Fei pointed his long sword at the ground. In the next moment, the sword disappeared, and small sword shields emerged around Chen Fei’s body, forming a protective barrier.
Chen Fei only demonstrated the perfected Starry Night Sword, keeping his Great Completion abilities hidden.
Feng Xiupu’s eyes widened as he observed the sword shields surrounding Chen Fei. He almost thought he was seeing things.
Just like Guo Linshan when he first saw Chen Fei, Feng Xiupu was equally astounded. However, Feng Xiupu managed to remain composed. Though surprised, his expression didn’t change much.
After a moment, Chen Fei stopped and looked at Feng Xiupu.
“It’s quite good. While the circulation of some sword forms is still a bit sluggish, with more practice, I believe you can cultivate them well,” Feng Xiupu pretended to be calm and nodded.
Guo Linshan had been discreetly observing Feng Xiupu from the side. Seeing his master maintain composure throughout, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of respect. His master truly possessed great knowledge.
“I understand!” Chen Fei said, cupping his hands.
“Now, what about the Soul Chasing Step?” Feng Xiupu asked with a smile.
Guo Linshan looked at Feng Xiupu strangely. His master’s attitude was unusually kind. It had been a long time since he had seen his master behave this way.
“I’ve also gained some insights into the Soul Chasing Step,” Chen Fei replied. With that, his figure flashed, and he moved ten meters away before swiftly returning.
Feng Xiupu’s lips quivered slightly, almost losing control.
Guo Linshan’s eyes widened. What did he just witness? Why did his junior brother’s speed seem faster than his own? Wasn’t his junior brother only in the Bone Tempering realm?
Could the Soul Chasing Step be this fast? Had his junior brother already cultivated it to Great Completion?
“There are still some areas that I haven’t fully comprehended,” Chen Fei said with a smile. The Soul Chasing Step he displayed was still at the Perfected stage. Chen Fei had concealed a portion of his abilities and didn’t reveal all his secrets.
It wasn’t a matter of trust but rather Chen Fei’s own character. Apart from not wanting to astonish others too much, he had no intention of learning new sword techniques or movement techniques recently..
