Chapter 603: Living in a Well and Observing the Sky
Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan did not immediately answer Shen Feng's question. Their faces revealed an extremely impatient expression. After arriving in the Lower Realm that year, they joined the Holy Heaven Sect by chance and were now Inner Sect Elders of the Sect.
The power of the Holy Heaven Sect in the Lower Realm was much stronger than that of the Hundred Flower Sect. Just the Great Elder of their Sect alone held the cultivation of the Sea Transformation Peak.
Back on Earth, although Shen Feng had the strength to instantly kill Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses, Li Qiufeng and the others now possessed the cultivation of the Nascent Variation Stage.
As their strength continued to climb, so did their horizons.
They assumed that the first time Shen Feng dealt with the Monster Beasts that rushed out from the Gate of Life and Death, the combat power he displayed was at best around the Soul Swallowing Stage.
Later, he could chase the Monster Beasts back to the Gate of Life and Death with a single shout, which definitely meant that he had obtained some opportunity that made those Monster Beasts fearful.
The combat power of the Soul Swallowing Stage was far, far inferior to that of the Nascent Variation Stage.
The reason they were sure that Shen Feng's combat prowess hadn't changed much from before was because they judged it from the aura he emitted.
Back then on Earth, his aura was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and it still was. He hadn't made any progress at all.
Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan no longer had even a trace of fear in their hearts for Shen Feng. People change. They had once been afraid of Shen Feng's combat power, but now that they believed they had completely surpassed him in terms of strength, they naturally wouldn't bow and scrape anymore.
After a long silence,
Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan exchanged glances, recalling the scenes of being saved by Shen Feng. They couldn't help but sigh softly, and much of the dissatisfaction in their hearts dissipated.
Perhaps there was still a hint of conscience left in their hearts! In the end, they chose not to make a move against Shen Feng.
Li Qiufeng spoke up, "On the stone path to this place, we didn't encounter anything strange."
"It was either resting or continuously on the road. It took a year and a half to finally come out from the stone path."
After a pause, she added, "The place where Qianlan and I were teleported to was only tens of thousands of meters apart. By chance, we quickly met up with each other."
After listening to Li Qiufeng's account, Shen Feng showed a thoughtful expression.
Could it be that Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan did not experience oppressive forces?
Their original cultivations were not too different from each other. Could it be that the difficulty and time to navigate the stone path change based on each person's cultivation and strength?
Seeing Shen Feng lost in thought, Wang Qianlan couldn't help but say, "You should leave here quickly! We came out this time to do a task with the Fourth Elder, and if he sees you, a stranger, he will definitely end your life on the spot."
Upon hearing this,
Shen Feng just shrugged his shoulders indifferently. He was not really acquainted with these two and could naturally sense that they no longer showed him the same reverence as before.
As for this change in attitude, Shen Feng did not pay much attention. At least these two hadn't been ungrateful enough to directly turn against him.
Seeing Shen Feng standing still and unmoved, Wang Qianlan's eyebrows furrowed again, "Your cultivation is still at the Foundation Establishment Stage, right? Even if your combat power is strong, I see it's only around the Soul Swallowing Stage."
"To have the cultivation of the Swallowing Spirit Stage during the Foundation Establishment Stage is certainly something to be proud of, but the Lower Realm is incomparable to Earth. Indeed, on Earth, you could act with impunity, but here in the Lower Realm, with your level of combat power, if you're not careful, you'll soon lose your life here,"
"Consider this a bit of advice from me, in memory of the time you once saved us."
Li Qiufeng also nodded and said, "Go on, leave on your own! You will never be able to reign supreme in the Lower Realm. The vastness of the Immortal Realm is beyond your imagination."
Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan were not fools; they speculated in their hearts that Shen Feng must have just arrived in the Lower Realm not long ago, otherwise why would he ask them how many years they had been in the Immortal Realm?
By now, they also knew about the difference in the flow of time between the Immortal Realm and Earth. Lingering on the stone path for a while would mean a long time passing in the Immortal Realm!
Faced with the indifferent reminders from Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan, Shen Feng merely chuckled to himself, uninterested in wasting more words with them. He said, "You two had better watch your own backs as well!"
Having said that.
His figure swiftly swept toward the distant night, and in a moment, he completely disappeared from Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan's sight.
No matter what, these two had fairly answered Shen Feng's questions. Moreover, with the power of the Nascent Variation Stage, it would probably take some effort to deal with them given Shen Feng's current cultivation.
As long as they didn't provoke him in the future, he would let them live their days in the Lower Realm!
After seeing Shen Feng completely depart, Wang Qianlan's disdain grew even more pronounced. She said, "Truly a person who cannot see the situation clearly. With his current cultivation level, what kind of influence can he hope to wield in the Lower Realm? Does he really think this is still Earth, where he can continue to rule as king? What a frog in a well."
Li Qiufeng shook her head with a cold laugh, "Let's not bother with this kid anymore. We've repaid our debt of gratitude from before. If we encounter him again and he still has this attitude, then I'll definitely teach him a lesson."
Wang Qianlan agreed, "I'm now very glad that I chose to leave Earth back then. Otherwise, we'd still be struggling for existence on Earth. Now, Earth is completely under that kid's control, dominated by those around him."
As Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan were speaking.
A dark shadow swiftly emerged from the depths of the dense forest. Upon seeing this figure, Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan immediately stood up, respectfully saying, "Fourth Elder!"
The newcomer was an old man with particularly sinister eyes, dressed in a black robe. He was Ke Zhishan, the Fourth Elder of the Holy Heaven Sect, with cultivation at the Initial Stage of Sea Transformation.
This time, a grandson of an Outer Gate Elder from the Star Sea Sword Sect was coming to take Xue Wanyue away from the Hundred Flower Sect, and Ke Zhishan happened to be the grandfather of that disciple from the Star Sea Sword Sect.
The attitude of the Hundred Flower Sect was very unclear this time, and Ke Zhishan was particularly fond of his grandson, having brought two Elders from his sect to handle some private matters.
Ke Zhishan had taken great care of Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan in the past, which was why they usually had a very close relationship with him.
"Was there someone just now?" Ke Zhishan couldn't help but ask.
Wang Qianlan immediately explained, "Fourth Elder, it was someone from the same place as us. His cultivation is only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, just a frog in a well, that's all."
Upon hearing Wang Qianlan's response,
Ke Zhishan nodded and said, "You are now Elders of the Inner Sect of the Holy Heaven Sect; you should interact less with such people in the future."
Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan quickly agreed, deliberately not mentioning Shen Feng's formidable combat ability, lest the Fourth Elder might take an interest in Shen Feng and perhaps even invite him to join the Holy Heaven Sect.
