Chapter 5426: Is This Our Gap?

Big brother Chu Feng, what should I do? Bai Yunqing asked.

Use your own method. You dont have to support me, Chu Feng replied.

All right. Bai Yunqing listened to Chu Feng and used his own method to perfect the formation.

Ling Hang also turned his attention back to channeling the formation too. Under their combined efforts, it didnt take long for the formation to glow brightly.

The formation has been perfected! Young friends, I dont know how I can thank you. Bai Yunqings senior uncle was over the moon.

Hmph! Its all thanks to young master Ling Hang, Li Taer said.

Big sister Taer, its obvious that big brother Chu Feng contributed the most to the formation, Bai Yunqing said. It was his first time refuting Li Taers words ever since their first meeting, but he was doing it not for his own sake but Chu Feng's.

What a joke! His formation is just for show. I dont believe that a Blue Dragon G.o.d-cloak World Spiritist like him can really construct a formation comparable to a Gold Dragon G.o.d-cloak World Spiritist, Li Taer said.

Senior uncle, you should be able to tell who contributed the most to the formation. Bai Yunqing turned to his senior uncle.

I wasnt paying attention, but the important thing is that the formation has been completed. The three of you have truly helped us greatly! Bai Yunqings senior uncle said.

Chu Feng sneered in his heart. Bai Yunqings senior uncle had to know the truth, but he said those words to spare Ling Hangs pride. It was out of respect for Bai Yunqing that he didnt say anything about it.

I think that its only fair for us to give young master Chu Feng a chance to prove himself. He mentioned that his formations are comparable to that of a Gold Dragon G.o.d-cloak World Spiritist, so why dont we use another method to prove his talents? Ling Hang suggested.

Does young master Ling wish to challenge us? Bai Yunqing asked.

Challenge? Its not as if we are enemies. I have another way to determine who of us three is the most talented one without resorting to a fight, Ling Hang said as he took out a palm-sized copper palace.

The copper palace immediately drew everyones attention. Chu Feng could tell with a single glance that it was no ordinary item.

Whats that, young master Ling Hang? Li Taer asked.

Miss Taer, this is a treasure from the Ancient Era that functions as a special cultivation ground. The Seven Realms Sacred Mansion awarded it to my grandfathers grandfathers grandfather for a major contribution he has made to the clan, and its now pa.s.sed down through my lineage as a family heirloom, Ling Hang said.

How do you cultivate with that? Li Taers eyes glowed upon hearing the words special cultivation ground.

All you have to do is to enter the copper palace, Ling Hang replied.

How do you determine who is the most talented one then? Li Taer asked.

There are three ways. The first way is by entering the palace. A key is required to access the palace, and there are two conditions to obtaining a key: being a junior and having a high level of intelligence. Without sufficient intelligence, one wouldnt be able to enter the copper palace even with a key in possession.

The second way is ones ability to decipher formations. Those who enter the bronze palace will have to decipher its formations, or else theyll be deemed unqualified and kicked out. The third way is to gain power. Based on the deciphered formations, the bronze palace will bestow a person power that aids in their cultivation.

I took this bronze palace out with the intention to share it with the two brothers over here and Miss Taer, Ling Hang said with a smile.

Young master Ling Hang is too generous, unlike those two petty things, Li Taer remarked.

Is that woman ill in the head? Why is she insulting you for no reason? Eggy berated.

Pay her no heed, Eggy. I think that she really is ill, Chu Feng said.

She is? What is she ill with? Eggy asked.

Shes a compulsive bootlicker. Cant you see how she keeps bootlicking on that Ling Hang? Chu Feng said.

Hah! That does seem to be the case. Eggy burst into laughter.

Boom boom boom!

The hall began to pulsate as it formed a connection with the center formation that Chu Feng and the others had just perfected.

The formation has been completed. All thats left is the final compression. We should get out of here first, Bai Yunqings senior uncle said.

Thus, he led the group toward a guest palace intended for receiving distinguished guests. Following that, he took his leave, claiming that he had affairs to attend to.

Chu Feng noticed that Bai Yunqings senior uncle was extremely interested in Ling Hangs copper palace, but the latter still took his leave despite this. There was a good chance that this had something to do with the formation they had just perfected.

Someone must have been channeling the formation in the hall they were previously in for it to suddenly pulsate. The person who was channeling the formation must have been fairly powerful too, or else it wouldnt have resulted in such a powerful might.

Chu Feng figured that the person behind the formation might be none other than Bai Yunqings master. It was possible that Bai Yunqings senior uncle was heading over to lend a helping hand.

Miss Taer, brothers.

Ling Hang took out three copper keys and handed the mover to Li Taer, Chu Feng, and Bai Yunqing. These copper keys were clearly made out of the same material as the bronze palace and were extremely small, spanning the length of a fingernail.

The keys we have for our copper palace are finite; there arent many of them left after so many generations. My father has refused many juniors of our Seven Realms Sacred Mansion the chance to enter the copper palace, and I have done the same too. Its not that Im heartless but Im obliged to pa.s.s this family heirloom down to the next generation too, Ling Hang said.

Young master Ling Hang, why are you giving them such a precious opportunity? They arent worth it! Li Taer said.

Its fine. I have a high opinion of young master Chu Feng and Brother Bai, Ling Hang replied with a smile.

Young master Ling Hang is truly a generous man. Im just worried that your good intentions will go to waste, Li Taer said.

A bootlicker indeed, Eggy scoffed.

I, Ling Hang, believe in my eye for people. Ill willingly accept it if my judgment was wrong, Ling Hang said with great magnanimity.

He grasped the key in his hand tightly, and the copper palace quietly floated into the air. Many tiny runes surfaced around the copper palace and swiftly rotated around it.

Chu Feng curiously a.s.sessed the copper palace. He had to admit that while Ling Hang wasnt anything good, his treasure was indeed formidable.

What are those two fellows doing? Eggy asked.

While Chu Fengs attention was fixated on the swiftly rotating runes around the copper palace, he was still able to see Ling Hang and Li Taer in his peripheral vision.

Ling Hang must be secretly offering guidance to Li Taer, Chu Feng replied.

Lets meet inside, Ling Hang said before proceeding to form a series of hand seals.

The copper key in his hand morphed into a bundle of spirit power that enveloped him. The next moment, he was transported into the copper palace with a flash of light.

Right after Ling Hang entered the copper palace, Li Taer looked at Chu Feng and Bai Yunqing and said, With your skills, theres no way the two of you can enter the copper palace even with those keys. Its laughable how the two of you thought that you could steal young master Ling Hangs merit. Youre just going to be humiliated!

Li Taer formed a series of hand seals too, and she was transported into the palace just like Ling Hang.

Big sister Taer was able to enter too? Bai Yunqing was baffled.

Your big sister Taer received Ling Hangs guidance, Chu Feng replied.

I see. That explains it. Bai Yunqing nodded in realization.

Why are you so afraid of your big sister Taer? Chu Feng asked.

Its not that Im afraid of her, but Im indebted to my senior uncle. It wouldnt be nice for me to get into a conflict with his daughter. After all, I would have already starved to death if not for my master and my senior uncle taking care of me, Bai Yunqing said.

Respect ought to go both ways.

I know that, big brother Chu Feng, but Haaa. Ill just treat it as returning my senior uncles favor.

Chu Feng didnt agree with Bai Yunqings decision, but it was not his place to interfere.

Bai Yunqing had already thought things through and came to a decision. Taking a step back, it was clear that Bai Yunqings senior uncle was clearly biased toward his daughter. If a conflict broke out between Bai Yunqing and Li Taer, the one to suffer was most likely Bai Yunqing.

Big brother Chu Feng, I have figured out the method to use the copper key. I reckon that Ling Hang said those earlier words because he thought that we wouldnt be able to see through the copper keys and enter the copper palace, Bai Yunqing said gleefully.

Whats the method you have figured out? Chu Feng asked.

The same one as Ling Hang.

That method isnt right.

It isnt right? But the two of them managed to enter the copper palace! Bai Yunqing exclaimed.

The copper key isnt the crux to entering the copper palace, Chu Feng explained.

Is there another method to enter the copper palace?

Indeed. Let me teach you.

Chu Feng proceeded to impart the method he had grasped to Bai Yunqing, but a frown quickly formed on the latters forehead.

Big brother Chu Feng, your method is too complicated. Im unable to carry it out, Bai Yunqing said.

Why dont I teach you a special way to control your spirit power? You should be able to use my method if you are able to grasp it.

Chu Feng proceeded to impart the world spiritist technique he had learned from Lord Qin Jiu. He knew that the full world spiritist technique was too complicated for Bai Yunqing to grasp on the spot, so he only taught the latter the relevant portions.

However, Bai Yunqings frown only deepened.

Big brother Chu Feng, I dont think I can learn your world spiritist technique. Just listening to it gives me gooseb.u.mps. I cant even understand it, let alone putting it into practice, Bai Yunqing said.???????????. ???

Ah Chu Feng was rendered speechless. He didnt think the part he had imparted to Bai Yunqing was that difficult, but it didnt seem like Bai Yunqing was just procrastinating either.

Big brother Chu Feng, is that the world spiritist technique you use to construct your formations? Bai Yunqing asked.

Indeed, Chu Feng replied with a nod.

Big brother Chu Feng, I dont think I can even feel envy for you anymore. Youre too incredible. Its no wonder youre so powerful. Bai Yunqing shot Chu Feng a thumbs up. Are you really not intending to use the copper key to enter the copper palace?

Let me demonstrate it for you.

Chu Feng formed a series of hand seals that caused the copper key in his hand to tremble instead of shatter. Moments later, a ray of light shot out from the copper palace and enveloped him, dragging him in.

Holy! Is this the gap between us?

Bai Yunqing was stunned. He couldnt believe that Chu Feng had entered the copper palace so easily. That was a method he couldnt even think of executing, but Chu Feng was able to do it so easily!
