Betrothing Ning Rongrong?! Ning Fengzhi's Recruitment!

Chen Feng put the ring on his finger with satisfaction.

Then, Chen Feng turned his gaze to the Martial Soul Advancement Card.

"Use the Martial Soul Advancement Card. Target: Azure Lotus Sword."

As soon as he spoke,

a brilliant azure light suddenly burst from Chen Feng's right palm.

A three-foot sword slowly emerged.

Its blade resembled an azure lotus leaf, gleaming with a clear, lustrous sheen.

The Martial Soul Advancement Card turned into a streak of golden light and instantly entered the Azure Lotus Sword.

Ring!

A faint yet distinct sword cry immediately echoed through the secret chamber.

The Azure Lotus Sword began to change.

Mysterious golden patterns emerged along its once-ancient sword ridge.

An azure halo continuously flowed around the blade's edge, radiating a sharpness that made one's skin tighten.

Without touching anything, dense, fine sword marks appeared out of thin air across the stone walls of the chamber.

"What formidable sword aura."

Chen Feng praised it softly.

The Azure Lotus Sword was now several times more powerful than before.

Chen Feng took out the Sword-Aura Azure Lotus.

The Immortal Herb was crystalline throughout, as though it had been carved from the finest green jade.

Its nine lotus leaves spread open, cradling a lotus seed at the center that emitted a faint sword intent.

The moment Chen Feng held the Immortal Herb in his hand, the soul power within his body began accelerating on its own.

"This Immortal Herb was practically born for the Azure Lotus Sword."

Chen Feng did not hesitate and directly swallowed the Sword-Aura Azure Lotus.

The Immortal Herb melted as soon as it entered his mouth, turning into an incomparably pure and gentle energy that surged through his throat and into every part of his body.

Buzz!

The Azure Lotus Sword Martial Soul emerged automatically.

At that moment, the gentle energy frantically gathered toward the Azure Lotus Sword Martial Soul.

Chen Feng closed his eyes and began circulating his soul power, guiding the medicinal energy.

An indescribably mysterious premonition arose in his mind.

As long as he completely refined this Immortal Herb, the Azure Lotus Sword Martial Soul would undergo an unprecedented, thorough transformation!

Within the secret chamber, the medicinal power of the Sword-Aura Azure Lotus completely erupted.

Rolling heat surged wildly through his meridians, continuously washing over every part of his body.

The Azure Lotus Sword, whose blade had previously developed golden patterns, actually began to grow ethereal under the nourishment of the medicinal power.

A faint azure halo completely enveloped the sword.

Although its form had become illusory, the sword aura contained within it was several times stronger than before.

Chen Feng kept his eyes closed, guiding the surging energy with all his strength.

At that moment, his Martial Soul completed its final metamorphosis.

Phew.

He slowly exhaled a breath of impure air.

The illusory Azure Lotus Sword traced a mysterious arc through the air before obediently landing in his palm.

The Azure Lotus Sword now shimmered with watery azure radiance, appearing even more ethereal and elegant.

Chen Feng opened his eyes, unable to hide the delight flashing within them.

"As expected of an Immortal Herb. Its medicinal power is both gentle and tyrannical."

He muttered to himself and lightly raised his right hand.

Feeling the warm, jade-like texture transmitted by his Martial Soul, his heart was filled with reassurance.

Then, he focused on his soul power.

The bottleneck that had once obstructed his cultivation was instantly torn apart like thin paper beneath the medicinal power's impact.

His soul power soared all the way up before finally stabilizing at an entirely new level.

"Level forty-seven."

"With this cultivation speed, the future is truly promising."

He clenched his fist, feeling the abundant soul power within him, and the corners of his lips rose slightly.

The Storage Ring on his finger also caught his attention at that moment.

"Anything produced by the system is bound to be top-quality."

Chen Feng was incomparably satisfied with the gains from this time.

Meanwhile,

inside the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,

Ning Fengzhi sat with Chen Xin and Gu Rong, leisurely savoring fragrant tea.

Suddenly, a powerful fluctuation of sword aura swept over from the direction of the secret chamber in the rear mountain.

The sword aura contained an incomparably pure sharpness, lowering the temperature of the entire hall by several degrees.

Gu Rong's hand holding the teacup paused slightly as he turned toward the rear mountain.

"Did that brat Feng make this commotion?"

Gu Rong was the first to break the silence.

A glimmer of amazement flashed through Chen Xin's eyes as he gently set down his teacup.

"What pure sword intent. His soul power fluctuations have also grown tremendously stronger."

"Such a commotion truly befits a top-tier mutated Martial Soul."

Chen Xin's tone carried undisguised gratification and praise.

Ning Fengzhi took a sip of tea, his deep gaze fixed on the rear mountain.

"Uncle Sword, Feng has displayed such astonishing talent at such a young age."

"Rongrong has also reached the age when a young girl begins to understand love."

"How about we bring these two children together?"

Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin with a smile and abruptly made the suggestion.

Pfft.

The mouthful of tea Gu Rong had just swallowed sprayed straight out in a most undignified manner.

Chen Xin was also slightly stunned, looking at Ning Fengzhi with helpless amusement.

Seeing their reactions, Ning Fengzhi could not help teasing them.

"What? Are you unwilling, Uncle Sword, or are you reluctant to part with your precious grandson?"

Gu Rong wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth and joined in the teasing.

"Fengzhi, are you planning to betroth Rongrong to that brat?"

"Looks like Chen Feng will have good fortune to enjoy in the future."

Chen Xin helplessly shook his head and lifted his teacup for a sip.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. This still depends on what the two of them want."

Ning Fengzhi smiled and nodded, though he had already made up his mind.

The potential Chen Feng had displayed was simply too astonishing.

Given time, Chen Feng would absolutely become the next Sword Douluo.

He might even surpass Chen Xin in the future and reach a height beyond anything they could attain.

If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could have such a peerless powerhouse protecting it, it would have nothing to worry about for the next hundred years.

Inside the secret chamber,

Chen Feng stood up and carefully sensed the changes within his body.

After being cleansed by the Immortal Herb, not only had the Azure Lotus Sword Martial Soul improved in quality, but all four Soul Rings had also been greatly strengthened.

"It may look like an agility attack type, but it actually possesses the crushing destructive power of a power attack type."

He murmured softly as the Azure Lotus Sword quietly appeared in his right hand.

The first yellow Soul Ring lit up.

"First Soul Skill, Sword Song Resounding."

The sword trembled lightly and let out a clear cry. The soul power and sword aura within his body instantly surged by fifty percent.

The second yellow Soul Ring lit up immediately afterward.

"Second Soul Skill, Azure Lotus Sword Force."

Countless fine azure sword auras gathered around him, forming an impregnable protective barrier.

As for his third and fourth Soul Skills, they were both peerless sword techniques he had comprehended on his own before.

Now, empowered by the evolved Azure Lotus Sword, their destructive power had increased severalfold.

"Very good. This improvement is practically a complete rebirth."

Chen Feng withdrew his Martial Soul, extremely satisfied with his current strength.

"Just exposing Tang San's past life and his childhood misdeeds earned such generous rewards from the system."

"Tang San, Tang San, you truly are my lucky star."

Chen Feng could not help laughing, and his plans for the future became even clearer.

As long as he continued exposing those hypocritical villains in the Chat Group, he could keep growing stronger.
