Chapter 5991: The Formidable Man Depicted In The Wall Painting
Daoist Starseizer’s expression remained grim along the way. He was worried.
Only after they entered the teleportation formation and left the starfield did Daoist Starseizer finally speak up, “You must have met the owner of the Mobile Palace.”
His serious and nervous expression made Chu Feng and the others realize just how dangerous the master of the Mobile Palace was.
But again, the Mobile Palace was an entity that no one in the present era had been able to faze, so its owner was bound to be powerful.
“Chu Feng, you cleared the formation. Did that person tell you anything?” Daoist Starseizer asked.
“I only know that he’s from the Ancient Era, but I’m not sure about the rest,” Chu Feng replied.
“Did he reveal himself?”
“He did.”
Chu Feng thought that the white-haired, black-armored man wouldn’t mind Chu Feng talking about him since he had revealed himself. He proceeded to describe the man’s appearance to Daoist Starseizer.
“White hair and black armor?
Daoist Starseizer’s eyes widened. He quickly drew a portrait in mid-air with his finger. It was hard to make out the features of the person in the portrait due to his glowing body, but he was wearing black armor.
The person in the portrait resembled the white-haired, black-armored man Chu Feng had seen.
“Elder, have you met him before?” Chu Feng asked.
That question only further stoked Daoist Starseizer’s nervousness, as it hinted that the person he had drawn was the person whom Chu Feng had met.
“I have never met him in person before, but I have seen a huge wall painting of him in an ancient remnant,” Daoist Starseizer replied.
“Father, what else do you know about him?” Huahua asked.
“Cough cough.” Daoist Starseizer coughed a bit. “Didn’t I tell you to call me master?”
He then turned to Chu Feng and explained, “Huahua is my adopted daughter.”
He seemed to be worried that Chu Feng would misunderstand.
“I have heard,” Chu Feng replied.
“Father, Chu Feng isn’t an outsider,” Huahua said.
Daoist Starseizer directed a helpless glance at Huahua.
In the past, Huahua did call him master, as that was what he had told her to call him all along. But one day, she heard of the saying ‘one’s benefactor is like one’s father’, and with that, she claimed that Daoist Starseizer was her father and began addressing him as such.
Daoist Starseizer understood where she was coming from. Huahua didn’t have any parents and he had raised her from a young age. Even so, he didn’t like her addressing him as her father as he had always viewed her as his disciple.
That being said, he wasn’t strict about enforcing it since he was Huahua’s only kin, and he understood her desire to have a fatherly figure in her life. There was a difference between a master and a father, after all.
“I have only seen his painting, but if what’s depicted on the painting is true, he would be a truly terrifying person,” Daoist Starseizer said.
Chu Feng and the others stared at Daoist Starseizer, waiting for him to continue his story.
“His abilities aren’t clearly shown in the painting, but what’s amazing about him is the black dragon he rides on. That black dragon is so huge that it can easily devour an Upper Realm.”
“What?! Doesn’t that mean that it can destroy multiple realms with just a casual whip of its tail? Even its movements would bring about a calamity to the realms!” Huahua exclaimed.
“It does appear to harness such powers according to the painting, though it’s also possible that the painter exaggerated the details. We often struggle to accurately perceive the strength of those far stronger than us, so we rely heavily on our imagination to envision their capabilities.
“Regardless, there’s no doubt that person is extremely strong. Even if the painting was exaggerated, he is still someone whom present-day cultivators and world spiritists can’t afford to offend.
“Powerhouses from the Ancient Era have started to emerge, and they have shown little tolerance for present-day cultivators. It’s one thing if that person takes a neutral stance, but if he chooses to side with the Ancient Era cultivators, do you think we would stand a chance at all?” Daoist Starseizer asked.
“We wouldn’t stand a chance at all, or at least that would be the case for the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect,” Xia Xingchen said.
Having grown up in the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect, she had an idea of how strong it was. While it was strong enough to rule over a galaxy, it paled in comparison to the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion and the Immortal Sea Fish Clan.
If the Ancient Era’s powerhouses were as strong as Daoist Starseizer said, there would be no battle at all; it would just be a massacre. Even the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion and the Immortal Sea Fish Clan wouldn’t stand a chance, let alone the Heavenly Dome immortal Sect.
She heard rumors that the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was guarded by a strong power, but how strong could that power be? Could it be stronger than the Ancestral Martial Realm Sect? Could it be stronger than the powerhouses from the early years of the present era?
It was worth noting that even the powerhouses from the early years of the present era were helpless before the Mobile Palace!
The more Xia Xingchen thought about it, the more she plunged into despair.
Thus, she turned to Chu Feng and asked, “Chu Feng, what else did that person say? Why did he leave that formation behind? Do you think he harbors enmity toward present-era cultivators?”
Huahua added, “I can tell that he looks down on me.”
“But that doesn’t mean that he looks down on Chu Feng,” Xia Xingchen replied.
Huahua shook her head and sighed. This incident forced her to concede that there was a huge gap between her and Chu Feng.
“Elder, that person didn’t say anything, but I don’t think he’s hostile toward us. I have met powerhouses who are hostile toward us, and those people would simply resort to massacre,” Chu Feng said.
“That makes sense,” Xia Xingchen replied.
Nevertheless, the knowledge that such a powerful person was out in the world of cultivation unnerved them. Everything that they cared about could be destroyed in the blink of an eye at that person’s whim.
They weren’t in a good position.
“Sometimes, it’s good to trust our instincts. If Chu Feng believes that person isn’t hostile, why don’t we just take it as it is? It’s foolish to worry over something that hasn’t happened. It’s not as if we can do anything about it, so let’s just deal with it when it happens,” Daoist Starseizer said.
“Elder is right.” Chu Feng nodded with a smile.
Daoist Starseizer smiled as well. He sent a voice transmission to Chu Feng, asking, “Chu Feng, are you here to ask me about your mother’s affairs?”
