Chapter 184 -184: Various Countries Exert Pressure
People came out of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower one after another, each wearing a radiant smile.
Their cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and their mood was exhilarating.
However, every person who emerged from the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, when they saw Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing, the radiant smiles on their faces instantly froze.
“Yuandan Realm…Fourth Layer?”
“This… This can’t be! They can’t have surpassed me!”
“What’s going on? How did Qingyang and Qingqing improve so fast? Am I seeing things?”
The crowd was extremely shocked, their eyes wide as they stared at Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing.
In two months’ time, both of them had breakthrough to the Fourth Layer! How terrifyingly fast was that?
Even Feng Wuchen’s cultivation speed, no matter how fearsome, couldn’t be this terrifying, right?
Looking at the crowd’s expressions of shock as if they had seen ghosts, the smug smile on Liu Qingyang’s face grew even more brilliant as he basked in their amazement and envy.
Liu Qingyang lifted his head proudly and said with a laugh, “That’s a secret, you’ll find out later.”
Apart from Ling Xiaoxiao, only Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing knew the secrets of the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower; none of the others had any idea.
The crowd exchanged glances, clueless about how Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing had so suddenly improved their cultivation.
“Chi Huang, these are your Spiritual Artifacts and battle armors. With your current strength, and these Spiritual Artifacts, your power will be even greater,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently. With a wave of his hand, Spiritual Artifacts appeared out of nowhere, emanating a powerful aura.
Each of the eight members of the Chi Huang received two Spiritual Artifacts, one weapon, and one battle armor.
“Thank you, Pavilion Master!” The eight were extraordinarily excited.
Besides the eight members of Chi Huang, the upper echelons of the Feng family also received Spiritual Artifacts and battle armors, greatly enhancing their strength.
These Spiritual Artifacts were selected by Feng Wuchen from the Third Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower and had been prepared for them in advance. Even the Feng family’s guards received treasured weapons.
There were countless treasures in the Third Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower; these Spiritual Artifacts were insignificant by comparison, not to mention that both the Feng family and Sky Pavilion needed them.
To contend with the Tai Xu Sect, Fenglei Sect, and Ji Xing Sect, Feng Wuchen had to increase their combat power, especially that of Chi Huang and his men, who were even stronger than Sky Shadow’s Fire Cavalry and the Black Flag Army.
The entire Feng family was tremendously excited; after two months of cultivation and now with the Spiritual Artifacts, their strength had increased manifold.
“Greetings, Grand Commander.” Everyone was still in high spirits when Huanyang entered the Feng family’s large courtyard and bowed respectfully.
Huanyang looked somewhat self-reproachful as he respectfully said, “Grand Commander, the people we sent to investigate didn’t find any news about the Family Head of the Feng family. All the major empires claim to have no knowledge of this matter.”
“No knowledge?” Feng Wuchen frowned. With such a response, nothing had been uncovered, not a single clue.
“It’s been over two months, Chen Er, could something have happened to your father?” Xiao Qingqing asked, full of concern. The longer there was no news of Feng Zhengxiong, the more restless she became.
Feng Wuchen comforted her, “Mother, don’t worry just yet, we can’t be sure of anything for now.”
“Aunt Xiao doesn’t need to worry too much. Uncle Feng is sure to have good fortune with him; nothing will happen to him,” Ling Xiaoxiao also comforted her, promptly taking Xiao Qingqing’s arm in hers to calm her down.
Feng Qianyang said solemnly, “With no clues, we don’t even know why they did it. If it was for the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, they should have made their move long ago, yet they have not showed up.”
Since they caught Feng Zhengxiong, there had been no further signs of them, which everyone found very strange, but no one could figure out why.
Was it really because of Feng Zhengxiong?
But upon reflection, that seemed impossible. Feng Zhengxiong had been in Unmatched City for decades and had never offended anyone. Even if there were grievances, Feng Zhengxiong had always been patient; it was impossible that he had offended any major figures.
“If we could find that person who impersonated a Feng family guard, we might get some answers, but unfortunately, we don’t know his identity,” Feng Qianyang said gravely. That was the only lead they had.
But more than two months had passed; where could they possibly look?
“Yanhuo Empire might not have been able to find out. Those people probably aren’t from our empire. Huanyang, send men to investigate in other empires! Maybe they’ll uncover some clues,” Feng Wuchen commanded with a stern voice.
If it was Yanhuo Empire, Feng Wuchen couldn’t think of any faction it might be.
It definitely wasn’t Tianzhou, and Yunzhou was even less likely. All the major forces in Yunzhou had already submitted to Feng Wuchen. In the Imperial Capital, right under the Emperor’s nose, who would dare to kidnap Feng Wuchen’s father?
“Yes!” Huanyang replied respectfully, immediately retiring to carry out the order.
“Pavilion Master, Tai Xu Sect, Fenglei Sect, and Ji Xing Sect dared to send assassins to kill the Pavilion Master in their greed for the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower. We can’t let them get away with it!” Xue Feng said coldly.
Leng Mucheng added in a cold voice, “They really have the audacity of sheer wild ambition!”
“Our current strength is not enough to confront them, especially Tai Xu Sect. Its strength is even greater than that of Tianyun Sect. Even if the emperor takes action, he is not a match for the Sect Master of Tai Xu Sect. We must endure a little longer and first understand the true strength of these major powers. Making a move is only a matter of time, and none of them will escape.” Feng Wuchen shook his head as he spoke coldly, a flash of ruthless killing intent in his eyes.
Feng Wuchen’s methods were ruthless, and he killed his enemies without mercy, never letting go of any adversary. However, now was not the time for revenge.
The major powers of various countries were overwhelmingly strong, far beyond what the Feng family and Sky Pavilion could contend with. Acting blindly would only lead to heavy casualties for both the Feng family and Sky Pavilion.
The most important were the experts in the Tianyuan Realm. Even though Feng Wuchen had now entered the Seventh Layer of Yuandan Realm and possessed extraordinary strength, he was still powerless in front of those in the Tianyuan Realm.
If it weren’t for the peculiar circumstances allowing Feng Wuchen to kill Gu Qingxuan—if Duan Tian Hun hadn’t drained Gu Qingxuan’s True Yuan and if it weren’t for Ling Xiaoxiao’s barrier severely injuring Gu Qingxuan—then Feng Wuchen would not have been able to kill him.
In short, the dreadful power of the Tianyuan Realm was far beyond the capability of the Yuandan Realm to contend with.
“Pavilion Master, Kuang Zhan, Xue Feng, and I will scout out their depths. As the saying goes, ‘Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.'” Dao Soul said.
“That’s good, and while you’re at it, check to see if my father is in their hands.” Feng Wuchen nodded.
Dao Soul and the other two immediately set out.
Not long after the three had left, another visitor arrived at the Feng family.
“The Great General?” Feng Wuchen and the others were very surprised.
“Greetings, Great General!” Several people from Chi Huang immediately dropped to one knee with utmost respect.

Even though they were no longer a part of Sky Shadow cavalry and the Black Flag Army, they were ultimately cultivated by Ye Cangqiong and continued to hold him in high esteem.
Ye Cangqiong’s expression was not good; it seemed that something had happened.
Feng Wuchen frowned slightly and said, “Great General, speak plainly.”
Ye Cangqiong’s personal visit to Unmatched City in Tianzhou indicated that the matter was definitely no small issue.
“The matter is serious.” Looking at Feng Wuchen, Ye Cangqiong gravely said, “Not long ago, you entered the Divine Valley. The Shuiyue Empire insists that the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower belongs to the Divine Valley, a treasure shared among the four empires, and not your personal property. They have spread this news to Luoyun Empire and Tianwu Empire, and the three empires are now putting pressure on the emperor, demanding that you hand over the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower!”
“What?” The expression of Feng Qianyang and the others changed dramatically.
“Utter nonsense!” Liu Qingyang was enraged, gritting his teeth as he said, “Just come out and say it if you want to seize the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower!”
“Shameless to the extreme!” Chi Huang spoke angrily, “Without any evidence, how can they make such accusations? They are deliberately slandering the Pavilion Master!”
“The strength that Feng Gege has displayed has already made the Shuiyue Empire feel threatened. With something as powerful as the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, everyone wants it for themselves, including the Emperor of Shuiyue. As the leader of the four nations, the Emperor of Shuiyue will certainly not allow the Tianwu Empire to threaten their standing.” Ling Xiaoxiao spoke up.
“Surely fitting for the Shuiyue Emperor, such a cunning strategy, using the empire to threaten me.” Feng Wuchen said with a dark, cold chuckle, yet they had indeed guessed correctly.
The Nine Layers Qiankun Tower was truly obtained by Feng Wuchen from within the Divine Valley, but apart from Ling Xiaoxiao, nobody knew about it, and Ling Xiaoxiao certainly would not leak the information.
In other words, without any idea about the origin of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, the Emperor of Shuiyue was making things up from scratch, but who asked Feng Wuchen to enter the Divine Valley?
After learning Feng Wuchen’s true identity, the Emperor of Shuiyue was quite wary of him, yet he did not want to give up the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, so he had to come up with such a ploy.
Joining the other two empires in pressuring the Tianwu Empire to coerce Feng Wuchen into surrendering the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower!
Ye Cangqiong gave a wry smile helplessly, “Even a fool could guess that they’re clearly targeting the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower. To put it bluntly, it’s a robbery. But with the three empires acting together, the emperor is helpless and had to send me, the Great General, and also ask the Grand Commander to make a trip to the Imperial Capital.”
“First it’s the major powers of various countries, and now the emperors of those countries. How wonderful! It’s enough to stir anger into laughter.” Feng Wuchen said with a cold laugh, his dark eyes filled with a chilling cold that was frightening.
The whereabouts of Feng Zhengxiong remained unknown, and Feng Wuchen was being hunted and killed by the experts of the major powers due to the affair with the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower.
At this very moment, Feng Wuchen suddenly felt the urge to howl at the sky, to vent the rage that had been building up inside him.
A soul-chilling killing intent emanated from within Feng Wuchen, accompanied by an overwhelming aura.
“Seventh Layer of Yuandan Realm!” Ye Cangqiong was thoroughly shaken, his eyes showing horror and an expression of disbelief.
What kind of terrifying cultivation speed was this? It had only been three months since Feng Wuchen’s duel with Lei Jue, and he had already broken through from the Fifth Layer to the Seventh Layer of Yuandan Realm!
The astounded Ye Cangqiong now also realized that the cultivation of everyone in the Feng family as well as Chi Huang had grown exponentially by several times!
Especially Chi Huang, who had already reached the Sixth Layer of Yuandan Realm, his strength now on par with Ye Cangqiong!
It was a pity that Ling Xiaoxiao concealed her true cultivation level. On the surface, she seemed to be at the Fifth Layer of Yuandan Realm, but in truth, her cultivation was even stronger than Feng Wuchen’s by a bit, already in the later stages of the Seventh Layer of Yuandan Realm, just half a step away from the pinnacle.
With such terrifying improvement, Ye Cangqiong couldn’t believe it. In just one year, how astonishing the Feng family and Sky Pavilion’s growth would be.
“Great General, I will go to the Imperial Capital with you right now. I want to see what kinds of arguments the nations have! They want me to hand over the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower? Hmph!” Feng Wuchen said with a cold laugh, feeling at this moment more formidable than at any other time before.
