Chapter 667: Two Women Become Saints
"Have you heard? Our Wendao Academy's Qiankun Divine King suppressed a Divine King at the Ice Abyss."
"Correction—it was a Divine Corpse. That's an existence even more terrifying than a Divine King."
"..."
Within the Wendao Academy, countless disciples were discussing Chu Feng's suppression of the Divine Corpse. Joining the Miscellaneous Dao Court had once again become the goal of every academy disciple.
Beyond the Wendao Academy, living beings and cultivators throughout the Xuan Province were also discussing this matter.
At the outskirts of the Ice Abyss, cultivators from the Hundred Races gathered around a small hill. A Snowman King stood at the summit, speaking eloquently: "That day, this king and Big Wolf were pulling the carriage for the two Divine Maidens all the way to the deep sea entrance of the Ice Abyss..."
Initially, both the Snowman King and the Wolf Demon King had intended to focus on their cultivation. However, one cannot cultivate without resources.
Coincidentally, the entire Ice Abyss was discussing that battle at the time. The two great Demon Kings decided to narrate the events of that day to these inexperienced fellows.
As the saying goes: one tells ten, ten tell a hundred. Soon, every day, cultivators from the Hundred Races would come to hear the two great Demon Kings take turns recounting that battle.
Every day, countless living beings came specifically to listen to the two great Demon Kings describe the great battle of that day. Of course, the two great Demon Kings did not speak for free.
Those who wished to hear them had to pay ten spirit stones each, or provide equivalent items in exchange. In no time, the two great Demon Kings became the most famous existences in the entire Ice Abyss.
After all, being able to pull a carriage for Divine Maidens and stand behind a Divine King to observe the battle was a lifelong dream for countless living beings.
Within the various Holy Lands, Chu Feng's battle achievements were also recorded. Moreover, the Saints of each Holy Land personally issued orders that no one was to provoke the disciples or family members of the Qiankun Divine King.
If anyone did such a thing, they would be expelled from the Holy Land.
Countless cultivators throughout the Xuan Province remembered the four words "Qiankun Divine King." Although Chu Feng was not a Divine Emperor, his status in the Xuan Province was no less than that of a Divine Emperor.
As for Chu Feng himself, he lived a life of leisure. Every day, he either fished or played with his daughter.
On the first and fifteenth of each month, he gave lectures to his disciples. Thus, the days passed one by one.
Time always causes people to forget many things. After ten years, very few people on the Xuan Province continent still discussed the Qiankun Divine King.
After all, the Qiankun Divine King had not appeared for so many years. Some younger generations who did not know the truth even believed that the story of the Qiankun Divine King suppressing the Divine Corpse was merely a legend.
The disciples of the Wendao Academy did not deliberately correct them. In their view, it did not matter whether these people discussed the Qiankun Divine King or not.
After all, these people would never see the Qiankun Divine King in their entire lives, nor would they be able to witness his magnificence.
Twenty years passed, and the title of Qiankun Divine King had become a legend. Nowadays, the two daughters of the Qiankun Divine King were the focus of discussion throughout the Xuan Province.
Their reputations were no less than the Invincible Sword Xiao Chen and the Unparalleled Tyrant Fist Cao Youqian of that year.
The world gave the two girls two nicknames: the Divine Sword Imperial Princess and the Thunderfire Imperial Princess. Both of them were now experts of the Nirvana Realm.
It was only a matter of time before they reached the Half-Saint Realm.
Meanwhile, under Chu Feng's guidance, the two women Bing Yan and Princess Miaoyu had become two Saints.
Among his disciples, Xu Caichen, Han Ping, Chu Caiyi, Chen Qianqian, Bai Qian, and Shi Xuan had all become Great Sages. Some remained at the Wendao Academy to cultivate.
Others went to the Hongyuan Continent to cultivate together with their two senior brothers.
Today was the day the Wendao Academy held the Sage Grand Ceremony for the two Saints. Countless people considered it an honor to attend the grand ceremony of the two great Saints.
Of course, most of them wanted to catch a glimpse of the true face of the Qiankun Divine King.
Unfortunately, the Qiankun Divine King Chu Feng did not show his face at the grand ceremony. It was not that Chu Feng did not want to support his two wives.
Rather, in his view, these matters were not worth fussing over.
After the grand ceremony ended, the two women and Chu Feng spent another spring night together. The next day at noon, Chu Feng had just woken up when he heard the voice of Saint Miaoyu.
"Husband, I have something I wish to discuss with you."
Chu Feng slowly raised his head upon hearing the voice and asked lazily: "What do you have to say?"
Saint Miaoyu said: "I wish to return home to take charge."
Chu Feng's immediate reaction was that this was her home. But he quickly remembered that Princess Miaoyu had married over from Yunluo Island back then.
"Very well. I'll just travel back and forth every other day then."
Saint Miaoyu was stunned upon hearing this. Then a blush appeared on her face.
She punched Chu Feng's arm with her delicate fist, saying: "You rogue, always thinking of bullying your concubine."
Chu Feng said seriously: "We are both powerful experts of our generation. Such a distance is no distance at all. Why are you acting as if we're being separated by life and death?"
"Annoying. I just don't want you to think I'm using you," Saint Miaoyu said coquettishly.
"Hahaha..."
Chu Feng laughed heartily, pulling the beauty into his embrace. He asked with a smile: "What are you using me for?"
"I'll ignore you."
As Saint Miaoyu spoke, she began to pack up. Chu Feng had originally thought of having a farewell bath with her, but decided against it.
It was broad daylight after all. It would be bad if anyone saw them.
That same day, Saint Miaoyu left the Wendao Sect and headed for Yunluo Island. The moment she landed, the living beings of Yunluo Island all stepped forward to pay their respects.
"We pay respects to Saint Miaoyu."
"Rise."
Saint Miaoyu said indifferently, but her gaze looked toward the direction of the Wendao Academy.
She herself had not expected that following her husband to the Wendao Academy for less than a hundred years would result in her becoming a Saint. She was now capable of protecting Yunluo Island.
However, she decided to properly supervise her disciples. She would prevent them from causing trouble everywhere under the banner of her Saint status.
As for the Miscellaneous Dao Court, it welcomed its new head Nie Xiuyuan. As Chu Feng's disciple, no one objected when he took over the head position.
Chu Feng hoped this old fellow could lead the Miscellaneous Dao Court to create new glories. After all, he had experienced many things and was more mature compared to the other disciples.
Of course, what delighted Chu Feng the most was the increase in his disciples' cultivation over these twenty years. This allowed him to condense another Divine Spark.
He now had four Divine Sparks. Moreover, Xiao Chen and Da Qian had not yet refined the Ancestor Demon inner cores in their possession.
Speaking of the demon race inner cores, Chu Feng suddenly remembered that he also had a Divine Spark in his possession. He decided to decompose this Divine Spark.
However, he was uncertain whether to refine it into higher-level pills or Saint Realm-level pills.
After pondering for a while, he decided to ask the old dean. With a turn of his body, Chu Feng appeared in the dean's courtyard.
"What are you doing? You scared this old man."
Dean Kong jumped up from his reclining chair when he saw Chu Feng suddenly appear. Although he was the dean of the Wendao Academy, Chu Feng was now the strongest person in the academy.
There was nothing he could do about this boy.
Chu Feng bowed toward Dean Kong: "Sir, this disciple has a matter to inquire about."
???
Dean Kong was stunned. He really wanted to say, who asks for advice like you, old fellow?
But Chu Feng's address of "Sir" made his whole body feel extremely comfortable. The slight dissatisfaction in his heart instantly vanished.
He stroked his beard and said: "What do you want to ask this old man?"
"Replying to Sir, this disciple wishes to use that Divine King's Divine Spark to refine pills. However, I am wondering what kind of pills to refine."
He continued with a worried frown: "Should I refine pills for Saint Realm consumption or Divine King Realm consumption?"
???
The smile on Dean Kong's face instantly disappeared. He said in exasperation: "So you came here to show off to this old man."
He paused, then added: "Wait, this old man suddenly remembered there's something you haven't done for me yet."
"Is it that pill refinement matter?" Chu Feng asked with a smile.
"You've been deliberately delaying, haven't you? You didn't come to discuss this matter with this old man until today," Dean Kong suddenly realized this boy was doing it on purpose.
If he couldn't defeat the other party, he would have wanted to hang this boy up and beat him.
"How could that be?"
Chu Feng said seriously: "I was thinking that you weren't in a hurry yet, so I didn't come to ask. Besides, the rules for asking someone to refine pills aren't like yours."
"You..."
Dean Kong was rendered speechless by the retort. Yet he couldn't find any reason to refute it.
There was nothing wrong with what Chu Feng said. Pill refinement indeed wasn't done like this, waiting for the alchemist to come to you.
"First, tell me about your matter. If you want to refine pills on the Xuantian Continent, then you cannot refine pills exceeding the Saint Realm."
He explained: "Once the Heavenly Might descends, it will destroy our entire Wendao Academy. It's best to choose to go to a newly born continent like the Hongyuan Continent, or go into the void."
"However, refining pills in the void is also unsafe. If you are ambushed by other Divine Kings during the pill refinement process, that would not be a good thing."
"If it's just refining Saint Realm pills, with your Divine King pressure present, the Xuantian Continent won't descend with too great a pill tribulation. As for the Hongyuan Continent, needless to say."
"What about within the Holy Court?" Chu Feng asked again.
"Do you think this old man can manage Holy Court affairs? Unless you discuss it with Zhen Divine King yourself," Dean Kong said with a speechless expression.
Hearing Dean Kong say this, Chu Feng already had a general direction for refining the pills. One Divine Spark could be divided into nine Divine Spark fragments.
With his current alchemy skills, refining one Divine Spark fragment into the legendary Dao Fruit Pill wouldn't be a big problem.
He then asked: "Sir, what pill do you want this disciple to refine for you?"
Dean Kong said seriously: "This old man wants you to refine a Dao Fruit Pill for me."
"No problem. I'll choose the pill refinement location in a few days."
As Chu Feng spoke, he was about to turn and leave. He was stopped by Dean Kong: "Wait a moment, you boy."
"Is there something else?" Chu Feng asked.
Dean Kong stroked his beard. He took out a box from his storage ring and handed it over.
He said: "This old man is not the type to take advantage of disciples. These are the materials needed for pill refinement."
Chu Feng took the box and said with a smile: "Dean, rest assured, I will definitely refine a Supreme Dao Fruit Pill for you."
Dean Kong: "..."
