I Want to Shoot the Heavens!!!

Not many days after Nangong Renshe went to Little Meng Mountain, bad news was sent back.

"What, the Sect Master is missing?"

Upon receiving this news, the five elders could not help but be shocked.

It turned out that after Nangong Renshe arrived at Wu Dao Sect, he encountered a powerful enemy, was soundly defeated, and fled, only to go missing.

"The Path Clearing Envoy of the Dragon Ascending Holy Sect made a move."

The Great Elder quickly found out the truth.

The Ascending Wu Clan had invited a powerhouse from the Dragon Ascending Holy Sect to serve as a guest elder, the Path Clearing Envoy.

They intercepted Nangong Renshe at Wu Dao Sect and fought a great battle; Nangong Renshe was defeated and fled.

Cloud Rising Sect had never feared the Ascending Wu Clan because Cloud Rising Sect had two powerhouses at the Reception Divine Treasury realm: Nangong Renshe and the Great Elder.

The Ascending Wu Clan only had Ascending Wu Rong as a powerhouse at the Reception Divine Treasury realm; in terms of strength, Cloud Rising Sect was more powerful.

Now that the Ascending Wu Clan had invited a powerhouse from the Dragon Ascending Holy Sect to be a guest elder, their goal was clear: to suppress Cloud Rising Sect.

"The Sect Master is missing."

Hearing this news, Liu Chengfeng was also shocked.

"Do not worry, the Sect Master fled in the direction of Great Meng Mountain. This is the territory of our Su Family; even if he is missing, the Ascending Wu Clan cannot do anything to him."

The Fourth Elder comforted Liu Chengfeng and discussed countermeasures with the other elders.

"The imperial family has already agreed, so we shall go to Great Meng City."

"Since the Sect Master went missing in the direction of Great Meng Mountain, it will also be convenient to search for him."

After the five elders discussed it, they decided to let the Fourth Elder take Liu Chengfeng and a group of disciples to Great Meng City.

Before this, the Fourth Elder had contacted his family, wanting Liu Chengfeng to practice the Sage Scroll cultivation technique of the Su Family, and the Great Meng Su Family had agreed to provide the opportunity.

Now, going to Great Meng City served two purposes at once.

The five elders called for Liu Chengfeng to discuss sending him to Great Meng City.

"This is to take refuge, isn't it?"

As soon as Liu Chengfeng heard the decision of the five elders, he knew what they were thinking.

"That is only one reason; you must go to practice the Sage Scroll. Besides, since the Sect Master went missing in the direction of Great Meng Mountain, we must go to Great Meng City to search for him."

This decision was feasible, and Liu Chengfeng was also worried about the safety of Nangong Renshe.

"If I go, I can also draw the Ascending Wu Clan away."

Liu Chengfeng agreed to go to Great Meng City; what the Ascending Wu Clan wanted was not Cloud Rising Sect, but him.

"Whether the Ascending Wu Clan goes to Great Meng City or attacks Cloud Rising Sect, we must be prepared."

The Great Elder and the other three elders remained to guard Cloud Rising Sect, while the Fourth Elder took Liu Chengfeng and a group of disciples to Great Meng City.

If the Ascending Wu Clan attacked Cloud Rising Sect, with four elders holding the fort—and the Great Elder being a powerhouse at the Reception Divine Treasury realm—they could defend the sect.

If they truly could not hold it, Liu Chengfeng and the young disciples would be safe in Great Meng City, escaping the disaster.

"The Su Family is in Great Meng City, so the Ascending Wu Clan would not dare to act recklessly."

There was another reason the Fourth Elder took Jiang Yu and the other young disciples to Great Meng City: the Great Meng Su Family was part of the imperial family and possessed great strength.

More importantly, the Fourth Elder himself was a member of the imperial family; the Ascending Wu Clan would not dare to commit a massacre in Great Meng City.

With the decision made, the elders immediately had Jiang Yu and the other disciples pack their things and leave Cloud Rising Sect.

For a time, the people of Cloud Rising Sect were in a panic, with the storm approaching and the threat of the sect being destroyed hanging over them.

"Go. Once you reach Great Meng City and master the Sage Scroll, you will surely achieve great things on the path."

When bidding farewell, the Great Elder remained full of expectations for Liu Chengfeng.

Liu Chengfeng felt a sense of sorrow; although he had not stayed at Cloud Rising Sect for long, Nangong Renshe and the five elders had treated him like family.

"Elder, take care."

Liu Chengfeng and Jiang Yu and the others bid farewell to the four elders one by one; neither Jiang Yu nor the other disciples knew when they would see them again after this departure.

"Do not be tearful; we will meet again soon. Besides, I have lived for two thousand years, and I haven't lived in vain. If Ascending Wu Rong dares to come again, I will leave his life here."

The Great Elder was very open-minded and heroic.

Years ago, the Great Elder had long been stuck at a bottleneck, unable to enter the Reception Divine Treasury, and his two-thousand-year lifespan was nearing its end.

Just as he was about to pass away, he broke through the bottleneck, entered the Reception Divine Treasury, and successfully extended his life.

The Great Elder's open-mindedness inspired every disciple, igniting a sense of heroism in their hearts.

"Ascending Wu Clan, one day I will destroy you."

Liu Chengfeng took a deep breath, his eyes revealing a terrifying light.

"Once you master the Sage Scroll and break through to the Reception Divine Treasury, you will certainly be able to do it."

The five elders had confidence in Liu Chengfeng and pinned all their hopes on him.

Before parting, he was urged to make sure he cultivated the Sage Scroll.

"Let's go."

The Fourth Elder summoned a flying boat, taking Liu Chengfeng, Jiang Yu, and the others toward Great Meng City.

Great Meng City was far from the Cloud Rising Sect, but the flying boat was fast, and they arrived in a day or two.

Looking from afar, Great Meng City resembled a giant beast crouching on the earth, its walls built of solid stone, backed by Tiger Mound, making it easy to defend and hard to attack.

Upon reaching the outskirts of Great Meng City, they discovered the city was heavily guarded, with soldiers clad in armor and wielding sharp weapons, exuding an aura of slaughter and rolling blood energy that was quite oppressive.

These were no ordinary soldiers; they were an iron cavalry composed of god-cultivators.

Great Meng City not only housed the powerful disciples of the royal Su Family but also maintained a garrison of elite troops, among whom were many experts who had reached the Treasure Mountain Divine Treasury realm.

Returning to Great Meng City was like returning home for the Fourth Elder, who led Liu Chengfeng and the others to settle into a large courtyard within the city.

The Cloud Rising Sect was a major sect in the Qiuchi Kingdom and possessed its own properties in Great Meng City.

More than half of the businesses on the long street where the courtyard was located belonged to the Cloud Rising Sect.

It was no wonder the five elders had arranged for disciples like Liu Chengfeng and Jiang Yu to stay here.

To Liu Chengfeng's surprise, Zhou Yinfeng was also here.

"Young Master—"

Zhou Yinfeng was pleasantly surprised; seeing that Liu Chengfeng was unharmed, his heart was at ease.

"Why is Uncle Feng here?"

With the Wu Dao Sect burned down, seeing Zhou Yinfeng safe allowed Liu Chengfeng to breathe a sigh of relief.

"It was the Sect Master who sent me."

It turned out that Nangong Renshe had found Zhou Yinfeng first and sent him to Great Meng City, allowing him to escape the disaster.

Nangong Renshe's thoughtfulness made Liu Chengfeng feel deeply grateful; no matter what, he had to find the Sect Master and ensure his safe return.

"You all should rest first."

After getting them settled, the Fourth Elder prepared to head out, specifically instructing Liu Chengfeng.

"Do not worry about the Sect Master's disappearance; I will make inquiries. You focus on your cultivation, and leave the matter of the Sage Scroll to me."

The Fourth Elder was a member of a royal branch, and the Great Meng Su Family was a branch of the royal Su clan; in Great Meng City, the Fourth Elder had extensive connections.

Since Nangong Renshe had gone missing in Great Meng Mountain, no one was more suitable than him to search for Nangong Renshe.

The primary purpose for the five elders sending Liu Chengfeng to Great Meng City was for him to cultivate the Imperial City Mad Monk Thirty-Six Pestles.

As it was a royal technique, the Fourth Elder dared not teach it without permission.

"Brother, Great Meng City is so prosperous, do you want to go out and look around?"

Having arrived in a bustling place like Great Meng City, Jiang Yu couldn't sit still and wanted to take Liu Chengfeng and the other disciples out to see the world.

"I am going to meditate for a while."

Liu Chengfeng declined Jiang Yu's invitation.

"With your talent, you're still working this hard? How are we supposed to live?"

Jiang Yu couldn't help but click his tongue; if even Liu Chengfeng was training so desperately, how could they dare to go out and play?

Liu Chengfeng sat cross-legged and looked inward, not circulating his internal energy, but instead activating his Celestial Body to perceive the world.

Worried about Nangong Renshe's safety, Liu Chengfeng spread his perception toward Great Meng Mountain to see if he could hear any news regarding him.

Great Meng City faced Great Meng Mountain, which was even larger and more expansive than the mountain ranges of the Cloud Rising Sect, stretching for ten thousand miles.

As Liu Chengfeng's perception spread into Great Meng Mountain, he heard all sorts of sounds: old trees whispering, rivers singing, and mountain peaks letting out low hums...

Hearing no news about Nangong Renshe, Liu Chengfeng pushed his perception deeper into the mountain.

After reaching the Treasure Mountain Divine Treasury, the World Tree growing within his blood sea allowed Liu Chengfeng to perceive further and hear the communication of more insects, snakes, birds, and beasts.

Pushing deeper, he suddenly felt wave after wave of wild, ancient energy rushing toward him.

Each wave of wild energy was like a tide, and it was very orderly, as if a great army were waiting to set out.

"Mobilize the troops, mobilize the troops! Bring me all the thousand-year-old exotic beasts from Eight-Mile Cave!"

Deep in the mountains, Liu Chengfeng heard the commands of the exotic beasts as they communicated, with a massive number of them gathering together.

"Damn, they're going to attack Great Meng City."

Hearing the communication of the beasts deep in the mountains, Liu Chengfeng realized what the beasts of Great Meng Mountain were planning.

They were preparing to attack Great Meng City and were currently mobilizing their forces.

Liu Chengfeng used his Sky Eye to look, and in the depths of the mountains, two seventy- or eighty-meter-tall treasure beasts were commanding the army of beasts; they were the kings among the exotic beasts.

Combining this with the fact that the guards of Great Meng City were so heavily fortified, Liu Chengfeng understood what was about to happen.

"The god-cultivators of Great Meng City and the exotic beasts are going to war. What are they fighting for?"

Whether it was god-cultivators or exotic beasts, they would both fight over a Spirit Vein.

Spirit Veins are not only the birthplaces of spiritual energy, but where they exist, one also finds precious materials like spirit stones and medicinal herbs.

Liu Chengfeng felt puzzled; the Spirit Vein occupied by Great Meng City and the one occupied by Great Meng Mountain did not conflict, so why were the exotic beasts attacking Great Meng City?

The exotic beasts deep within Great Meng Mountain were all busy mobilizing their troops, and there was simply no information there that Liu Chengfeng wanted.

Liu Chengfeng withdrew his perception and directed it into Great Meng City, searching and listening throughout the entire city.

Under his perception, Liu Chengfeng immediately located the Spirit Vein beneath Great Meng City.

This Spirit Vein was also born from the Bayu Mountain Range of the Qiuchi Kingdom, being one of its branches.

The Spirit Vein of Great Meng City was much larger than that of the Cloud Rising Sect.

The Spirit Vein of the Cloud Rising Sect was merely a small stream.

The Spirit Vein of Great Meng Mountain was a river, and the entire vein had been channeled into Tiger Mound behind Great Meng City, where it was constructed into a training ground.

Beneath Tiger Mound, the training ground was built with spirit stones infused with cultivation techniques, and spiritual energy was channeled into it to accumulate, forming a spirit spring, which then gathered into a pool.

No one knew how many years the spirit pool had been accumulating, but it was already a full pool of spirit liquid.

"This is the foundation of the Great Meng Su Family."

With such abundant spiritual energy, Liu Chengfeng wanted to take a deep breath of it, but he dared not act recklessly.

If he used the World Tree to absorb it wildly, the Great Meng Su Family would definitely turn hostile and hunt him down.

"Something is not right."

After taking a few more looks, Liu Chengfeng discovered that the Spirit Vein training ground of the Great Meng Su Family was off.

Fine roots were emerging from somewhere underground, spreading toward the Spirit Vein training ground, intending to surround the Spirit Vein and steal its spiritual energy.

In the center of the training ground, a mass of light radiated the power of the Great Dao, suppressing the roots to prevent them from burrowing into the training ground and stealing the spiritual energy.

The two forces were hidden deep underground, contending with each other.

"What is this—"

Seeing the roots growing underground and spreading toward the Spirit Vein training ground, Liu Chengfeng was also very curious.

Liu Chengfeng activated the Heavenly Mound, seeing if he could awaken something.

After a short while, Liu Chengfeng heard a voice.

"I shoot the heaven, I shoot the earth, I shoot the gods to stir-fry a dish."

Beneath Great Meng City, a voice was humming, unhurried and somewhat cheerful.

"Have you really shot a god?"

Liu Chengfeng used his Sky Eye to observe, searching for the source of this voice.

The voice humming the little tune paused for a moment.

"Who are you?"

"Someone who can understand what you are saying."

"A junior hiding your head and showing your tail—"

This voice was overbearing and condescending.

"Come on then, let's see how powerful you are."

Liu Chengfeng turned his Heavenly Mound to provoke the voice.

An existence that could not forcibly intrude into his mind had a strength that could be estimated.

"Ignorant ant, do you know who I am? Do you know how powerful I am?"

Under Liu Chengfeng's provocation, this voice finally intruded into his mind.

As it entered his mind, golden light filled the sky, and a Golden Giant Tree appeared.

This voice wanted to project its invincible figure within Liu Chengfeng's mind.

This Golden Giant Tree was tall and reached the heavens, its branches laden with golden fruits.

Every fruit was a weapon, including pagodas, divine tripods, immortal bells...
