"So what are we waiting for? Let’s set off immediately."

Ling Feng’s eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance, as he was already somewhat eager.

"I... I might still need some time to recover..."

Yuee HuaQin’s face showed a trace of embarrassment. She had suffered some injuries during the fierce battle with the desert sand mice and had consumed a large amount of Elemental Power. She didn’t feel it during the fight, but as soon as she stopped, a sense of weakness and fatigue quickly filled her entire body.

"I didn’t take that into account."

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled. He immediately took out a bottle of elixirs for restoring Qi-Blood and Elemental Power, distributing them. He also gave Yuee HuaQin a few acupuncture treatments, and her complexion quickly turned rosy again.

Yuee HuaQin had long been acquainted with Ling Feng’s medical skills. Previously, when she was in the Demon Clan Sacred Land, her life was hanging by a thread, and it was Ling Feng who saved her.

It was precisely during that treatment that this man, younger than her, had seen her body.

Thinking of this, Yuee HuaQin’s ears turned slightly red. She quietly lifted her eyes to steal a glance at Ling Feng, her heartbeat suddenly accelerating.

"Hmm?"

Ling Feng was slightly taken aback and noticed Yuee HuaQin’s flushed face. He couldn’t help but find it peculiar and reached out to touch her forehead, surprised: "Could it be that the medicine is too strong, causing your Qi-Blood to not circulate smoothly? It shouldn’t be!"

Startled by Ling Feng’s touch, Yuee HuaQin quickly shrank back, giving Ling Feng a shy glare with a hint of resentment and said, "No... I’m fine now."

"That’s good."

Ling Feng smiled lightly at Yuee HuaQin. Because he had deceived her regarding the Five Emperor Seals, he felt somewhat guilty and thus showed her a bit more care.

However, Yuee HuaQin misunderstood the reason behind it, thinking that Ling Feng was very attentive to her, which made her heart race.

After all, after the Sunset Chosen One event, Ling Feng was considered the most outstanding and brilliant talent in the entire Eastern Spirit Domain. Such an excellent man, who had also shared some ambiguous moments with her, was a charm that Yuee HuaQin, a girl who rarely interacted with peers of the opposite sex, found hard to resist.

...

About three days later.

Ling Feng and his group finally emerged from the endless great desert and entered a dilapidated ancient city!

Compared to the Endless Wilderness, this place truly resembled Sunset Ancient City!

Quickly, following the information sent by Shi Haoxuan, the group found Shi Haoxuan’s location on the western side of the ancient city.

Rather than calling it a resting point, it was more of a hiding place.

Within the ancient city, besides the people from the Eastern Spirit Domain, there were naturally other powerful figures from the several other domains. Though Shi Haoxuan was strong enough to contend with some of the experts from the other domains, he was just one person, while experts of Shi Haoxuan’s level were not uncommon in the other domains.

In comparison, the overall strength of the Eastern Spirit Domain was indeed too weak.

If they did not unite their forces, they might not even qualify to compete with the other domain talents for opportunities.

"Junior Brother Ling, you’re finally here! It’s good that you’re here!"

Seeing Ling Feng had arrived, Shi Haoxuan’s face was unable to conceal his excitement.

Compared to before, Shi Haoxuan seemed to have lost a bit of his domineering aura of "Supreme Ego," perhaps because he had already faced losses against the geniuses from other domains.

Now that Ling Feng had finally arrived, the Eastern Spirit Domain, with both him and Ling Feng, seemed to have gained some confidence.

"Senior Brother Ling!"

"Brother Ling!"

Many other talents from the Eastern Spirit Domain also gathered here, whether they were disciples from the East Spirit Immortal Pond, Yunluo Sacred Land, or even the Five Thunders Sacred Land, all showing unprecedented unity at this moment.

Ling Feng responded to each person. In the group, there were indeed many familiar faces, with figures like Murong Bai, Chu Tiange, and Bai Qi from the East Spirit Immortal Pond also present.

However, Ling Feng searched around but couldn’t find Tuoba Yan. Even Qing Ping Fairy seemed to be absent.

It appeared that perhaps they had found their own opportunities elsewhere.

After all, opportunities are unique to each individual.

With the vast space of Sunset Ancient City, the potential opportunities are innumerable.

Due to the continuous journey, Ling Feng and the others were somewhat tired. Shi Haoxuan merely recounted some information about the relic he had discovered and the current situation of talents from various other domains within the ancient city, then arranged for Ling Feng and the others to rest first.

According to Shi Haoxuan, the relic had not yet fully opened, so Ling Feng planned to enter secluded cultivation in the remaining few days to slightly enhance his strength.

...

In a room decorated with ancient, broken furnishings, Ling Feng sat cross-legged on a meditation mat, casting aside all distractions from his mind.

Regardless of what relic awaited or what West Sword Domain geniuses there were, at this moment, the priority was to enhance his own strength.

"The Sword Soul Crystal within the Heaven Refining Ring should be enough for me to elevate my Sword Intent to the Level of Great Perfection. And also, the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Fire, I should seize the time to refine it as well."

With limited time, although my cultivation of the "Heavenly Seizing Sword Technique" is considered an arch-enemy to the West Sword Domain geniuses, it relies on one-on-one combat scenarios.

If I were to face multiple experts of Wang Bodang’s level at once, it would be tough even for me to resist.

Therefore, during this period, I must boost my strength as much as possible.

From within the Heavenly Refining Ring, he retrieved a Sword Soul Crystal, and silently activated the "Heavenly Seizing Sword Technique."

Time slowly passed.

Ling Feng continuously operated the "Heavenly Seizing Sword Technique," frantically absorbing the Sword Soul Crystals, and felt his own Sword Intent consistently breaking through and elevating.

From Small Perfection Middle Stage, breaking through to the Late Stage, and then to the Peak.

Breakthrough!

Breakthrough!

Continuous breakthroughs!

The consumption rate of Sword Soul Crystals was terrifying, with Ling Feng’s Sword Intent continuously advancing and expanding every single moment!

For anyone else, it would be impossible to elevate their Sword Intent at such a speed, but Ling Feng, with the vast amount of Sword Soul Crystals and the secret technique "Heavenly Seizing Sword Technique," ultimately succeeded!
