Chapter 6398: Profound Acupuncture Physician Saint’s Tombstone

That was why selfless people shone brightly. They defied human nature, and that was something most people were incapable of.

Chu Feng didn’t think he was a selfless person, as he wouldn’t hesitate to prioritize his friends over others, but he would occasionally step in to help the weak despite not being obliged to. That was why many thought that he was a selfless person.

To him, his friends were always the highest priority. Benefits were secondary. Many times, he had put his life on the line to rescue his friends. This was why so many people acknowledged him.

Huangfu Zhantian’s words jolted the crowd awake.

People like Chu Feng numbered in the minority. If someone else had grasped the rune formation, the chances were that they had chosen the dark path.

“It looks like we’re in a dire position. We shouldn’t have come in here.” The Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master’s voice sounded regretful.

They were already planning to enter the Ninth Galaxy, and with Yuwen Yanri’s talent, his cultivation would surely leap ahead once they were there. It was only a matter of time before the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion became known throughout the world.

It was out of a moment of greed that they stepped into the Immemorial Cemetery. They did stumble upon a fortuitous encounter and obtained it, but it also plunged them into fatal danger. They could very well become someone else’s stepping stone into the Ninth Galaxy.

“Haa, what’s the point of saying that now? There’s no need to be so down. We have Chu Feng on our side. We have seen what Chu Feng is capable of. With him around, the enemy should be the one despairing. I’m sure he will have a way out, right?” Huangfu Zhantian asked.

He was the most optimistic of everyone present.

“It’s only a conjecture that we might have a strong adversary, but even if that’s true, we have a shot at victory. We just need to grasp the Seven Stars Orbs,” Chu Feng replied.

“What’s the time limit?” Huangfu Zhantian asked.

“I can’t sense it at the moment, but I should feel it as the deadline approaches,” Chu Feng said.

“We’ll make it work,” Huangfu Zhantian declared.

“Of course.” Chu Feng nodded with a smile.

The things he had shared unnerved the powerhouses present, but he remained calm from the start to the end. Even though his power was meager in the unfathomable Immemorial Cemetery, he believed he could surmount the challenge.

This was the confidence he had built up through the experiences he had been through. These hurdles only looked tall because they were blocking his path; once he overcame them, it would be nothing more than a road he had walked past.

He had been through such situations many times before.

Traversing across vast space, the third star soon came into sight.

They couldn’t peer into the tombstone realm due to the formation around it, but they could see words on the tombstone from a far distance away—the Profound Acupuncture Physician Saint’s Tombstone.

To avoid attention, the Spirit God Clan constructed a formation to conceal the group. They had already retracted the spirit power they had granted Chu Feng, as it would take a toll on them to maintain it for a long time.

The group entered the tombstone realm and soon arrived at the tombstone within.

“Brother Bai?”

Chu Feng was startled. The person standing beneath the tombstone was a familiar face—Bai Yunqing!

Bai Yunqing had constructed a profound formation to accept the legacy. Much to Chu Feng’s shock, Bai Yunqing was a rank one Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist!

“How did Bai Yunqing become so powerful?” Eggy was taken aback.

“Chu Feng, isn’t that person your friend? I think his name is Bai Qingqing or something, right?” Huangfu Zhantian asked.

“What Bai Qingqing? He’s Bai Yunqing,” the Huangfu Heavenly Clan’s Clan Chief corrected him.

They had done a thorough investigation on Chu Feng—they knew Chu Feng’s friends, his roots with the Chu Heavenly Clan, and that his father was Chu Xuanyuan. Naturally, they knew about Bai Yunqing too.

“Right right, Bai Yunqing! He’s your friend, right?” Huangfu Zhantian asked once more.

This was good news for them. They needed to gain control over the seven stars, so it would be ideal if the one inheriting the legacy were Chu Feng’s friend.

“He is indeed my friend.” Chu Feng nodded.

But as he approached Bai Yunqing, his heart began to sink. He sensed that Bai Yunqing’s aura was mixed with someone else’s aura—Ouyang Kongyu’s.

Ouyang Kongyu was a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist specializing in medicine. To get to the bottom of the Pill Dao Immortal Sect’s destruction, Chu Feng looked for someone to treat Jia Lingyi, and that was when he stumbled upon Ouyang Kongyu.

With Ouyang Kongyu’s help, he verified that the culprit behind the Pill Dao Immortal Sect’s destruction was his grandmother.

Ouyang Kongyu later took Bai Yunqing in as his disciple and supported Chu Feng when he fought against Baili Zilin in the Luck Saint Realm.

“What happened to Elder Ouyang Kongyu?” Chu Feng murmured.

The bulk of Bai Yunqing’s spirit power appeared to be from Ouyang Kongyu. But Chu Feng didn’t dwell too much on the matter and instead observed the tombstone. Then, he turned to Shen Hui and asked, “Elder, can you lend me your spirit power once more?”

“Of course. Lord Chu Feng, you can just call me Shen Hui,” Shen Hui said.

“All right. I’ll be troubling you, Shen Hui,” Chu Feng said.

Shen Hui constructed a formation and imbued her rank two Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist’s spirit power into Chu Feng.

Chu Feng had to borrow Shen Hui’s powers because he sensed that the legacy here was extremely potent, likely beyond Bai Yunqing’s means to withstand. If Bai Yunqing failed, he would be killed by the legacy’s energy.

He needed to decipher the tombstone to help Bai Yunqing, and it would be much faster if he borrowed Shen Hui’s spirit power.

While Shen Hui was constructing the formation, Chu Feng had already deciphered the gist of the tombstone. Once his cultivation was raised to rank two Heavenly Dragon, he quickly picked up on the details.

However, he didn’t reveal himself and offer advice to Bai Yunqing right away.

Shouldering the legacy’s burden was beneficial to Bai Yunqing’s growth, so Chu Feng wanted Bai Yunqing to take on as much as he could.

As time passed, Bai Yunqing’s face warped under the strain. As Chu Feng had expected, it would be tough for him to withstand the legacy here on his own.

Bai Yunqing realized that himself and murmured tearfully, “Am I... going to die here? I am useless. Master, you have chosen the wrong person. Big brother Chu Feng, I won’t be able to repay the debt I owe you in this life.”

He resigned. He closed his eyes and stopped channeling the formation. He had given up.

Just then, Chu Feng’s voice echoed from the sky, “What nonsense are you spouting? How can you give up so easily?”
