My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 278 Stirring the Troubled Waters



Little did Chen Feng dream that the massive rock he casually approached would turn out to be a fierce beast, and not just any beast, but an early-stage Immortal Beast!

What an uncanny stroke of luck!

"Senior!"

"Save me!"

Chen Feng waved his hands frantically, shouting for help.

Luckily, with the senior present, he wouldn't have to meet his end here.

Even a casual encounter in the Immortal Realm could lead to facing Immortal-level beasts. It was indeed perilous.

Before Chen Feng could finish his plea, Gu Lan had already taken action.

With a flick of her fingers, resembling a sword, a streak of azure sword light abruptly appeared.

Despite facing only an early-stage Immortal Beast, Gu Lan remained vigilant, aware of the inherent dangers of the Immortal Realm.

This creature might possess some unique abilities, and she couldn't afford to be careless.

Slash!

The azure sword light, akin to the force of thunder, descended upon the crab's massive pincers, instantly rendering them into nothingness.

"Thank you, Senior!"

"I was just momentarily careless. The beast is already injured; I'll take care of it from here on!"

Chen Feng rescued, rubbed his buttocks, and immediately distanced himself from the beast, not forgetting to turn around and express his gratitude to Gu Lan.

He retrieved the fragment of the Imperial Stage artifact, preparing to finish the job.

Just entering the Immortal Realm and already having the chance to slay an Immortal Beast!

Chen Feng couldn't help but feel exhilarated.

"Vile creature! Meet your end!"

Chen Feng exerted all his strength to activate the fragment of the Imperial Stage artifact.

His robes rustled with the surging true energy, his demeanor exuding unparalleled courage and extraordinary aura.

However, at that moment, the colossal crab suddenly collapsed.

"This..."

Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire

Chen Feng was dumbfounded.

He hadn't even had the chance to perform, yet the beast fell.

Could it be playing dead?

Carefully, Chen Feng approached and discovered that the beast was indeed dead, its internal meridians destroyed by the hidden sword qi!

It was from that one strike!

The senior had only made a casual attack, not even targeting the vital points of the creature... yet it wielded such power!

Incredible!

Chen Feng immediately cast an admiring glance towards Gu Lan.

"Senior, please accept me as your disciple..."

[You've earned the admiration of the Destiny Boy, Destiny +1000]

Upon hearing the system prompt, Gu Lan felt pleased.

Indeed, the protagonist wouldn't disappoint, accumulating numerous Destinies.

"As for taking you as a disciple, it's not urgent."

"The Immortal Realm is fraught with danger. The shell of this beast is an excellent material for crafting defensive artifacts, which are useless to me but beneficial to you."

"Go ahead and remove it; it might come in handy for your self-defense in the future."

Upon hearing Gu Lan's casual reward, Chen Feng was ecstatic.

This material from an Immortal Beast was excellent for refining artifacts.

The senior was magnanimous!

Following the senior was indeed rewarding!

[You've earned the gratitude of the Destiny Boy, Destiny +1000]

Another Destiny earned.

Watching Chen Feng diligently remove the crab's shell, Gu Lan smiled kindly.

Bringing the protagonist to the Immortal Realm was indeed the right decision.

"The crab shell has been removed; give me the meat."

"Yes, senior!"

Chen Feng obediently packed the meat into a container and handed it over to Gu Lan.

While the flesh of an Immortal Beast was undoubtedly excellent and full of essence, he knew he couldn't be greedy... the senior had already given him the shell of this Immortal Realm creature, asking for more would be too much!

[The Destiny Boy willingly serves you, Destiny, +2000]

Gu Lan quietly accepted the Immortal Realm crab meat, smiling to herself.

If this happened a few thousand more times, who knew if she could elevate her Destiny to the red level?

"Why does it feel like there's a chill on my back? Was I injured by the beast just now?"

Chen Feng, engrossed in peeling the crab, suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He quickly circulated his true energy to check his condition, finding himself uninjured.

A false alarm.

Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief and continued peeling the crab shell.

Meanwhile, Gu Lan lightly tapped her fingers, and a spiritual light flickered.

A formation descended, concealing the teleportation array beneath their feet.

Void Formation!

This was a legendary technique, even beyond the reach of Saint Stage experts mentioned in ancient texts.

Upon finishing peeling the crab shell, Chen Feng happened to witness this scene, his eyes filled with admiration once again.

Gu Lan glanced at the hidden teleportation array and nodded.

With this concealed formation, it would be challenging for ordinary people to detect the teleportation array. Even if someone did, breaking the formation with strength inferior to Gu Lan's would prove difficult.

And if anyone did manage to break it, even thousands of miles away, Gu Lan would sense it.

This teleportation array connected to the Emperor-grade teleportation array in the western dense forest of the city, crucial for their return to the Earthly Realm; they couldn't afford any mishaps.

Gu Lan touched the ever-changing shape of the Divine Sky Ring in her hand, shaking her head helplessly.

She hadn't expected that despite absorbing so much spatial energy on the day of ascension, the seal on the Divine Sky Ring remained intact...

If only she could use the Divine Sky Ring, traveling through the Six Realms wouldn't be so troublesome.

"I wonder if this trip to the Immortal Realm will finally break the seal on the Divine Sky Ring."

Gu Lan reminisced about the timeline.

It seemed that Chen Feng unlocked the Divine Sky Ring within a forbidden area of the Immortal Realm.

If time permits, they should visit that forbidden area.

But for now, the most crucial task was to ascertain their location in the Immortal Realm and the distance from the Blissful Immortal Palace.

"There's a small power ahead; let's inquire about the way."

However, within a hundred miles, Gu Lan didn't choose to fly with Chen Feng.

With Chen Feng's King Stage cultivation, covering a hundred miles would only take a moment.@@novelbin@@

Not long after their departure, two figures suddenly appeared in the sky, a man and a woman engaged in continuous combat.

Eventually, the woman's strength proved insufficient, and she was struck down, falling right beside a pile of crab shells.

"In front of me, Crimson Flame, you won't escape this Forbidden Mountain Range."

"Surrender the Spirit-Transforming Grass, and I might spare your life!"

In the sky, the male cultivator, clad in fiery red robes, exuded overwhelming arrogance.

"Crimson Flame!"

"Do you truly believe you have the upper hand?"

The female cultivator glanced at the pile of crab shells beside her, a glimmer of hope emerging in her previously desolate eyes.

This was the flesh and blood of an Immortal Beast!

And there was still a trace of sword qi lingering on it, the same qi that had slain it in an instant!

Such formidable sword qi undoubtedly belonged to a formidable expert who had passed through here!

There was also a faint residual aura, indicating that the expert hadn't left long ago.

In her dire situation, the female cultivator didn't have time for extensive pondering. She bit her tongue fiercely.

Transforming into a streak of blood-red light, she fled.

"Hmph! Even under heavy injuries, you still resort to Blood Escape, seeking your own demise!"

King Crimson Flame snorted coldly, and his body instantly enveloped in flames as he gave chase.

Though the female cultivator was faster, the technique she employed, powered by her own blood essence, wasn't long-lasting.

Just as she was about to be caught, she finally saw two figures ahead.

"Senior, save me!"

"I'm the Deputy Sect Master of the Blood Spirit Sect. Please lend me a hand, and there will be heavy gratitude."

The female cultivator urged her true energy, desperately calling for help.

The two figures ahead slowed down upon hearing her voice.

The female cultivator hastened her pace to catch up.

But as she sensed the auras of the two individuals, hope instantly vanished from her eyes, replaced once again by despair.

"It's... King Stage..."

I've made a mistake!

One of them is at the King Stage, while the other shows no trace of cultivation whatsoever, clearly just two ordinary people who've strayed into the Forbidden Mountain Range.

To think I pinned my hopes on such individuals... truly a path to self-destruction.

Gritting her teeth, the female cultivator turned around and retrieved her treasured artifact.

"Senior, it seems like this woman is being chased by someone behind her... but that artifact in her hand seems quite nice. I wonder if the senior would be interested?"

Upon seeing the female cultivator, Chen Feng felt no impulse to play the hero but rather entertained the idea of picking up a windfall.
