Saint Realm Beast Core
A terrifying aura enveloped the entire Fifth Palace, and a huge phantom appeared behind the skeleton.
"Who dares to covet my sacred pill!"
Before he finished speaking, the enormous Qilin bone seemed to come alive, its powerful pressure forcing Chu Feng to take several steps back before he could regain his footing.
"Holy... Holy Might."
Bai Long felt this terrifying pressure and instinctively cried out in alarm. His soul trembled uncontrollably, and he felt as if he was about to collapse.
Chu Feng stood in the air, activating his Eye of World Destruction at the illusory figure before him. A slight smile played on his lips, "A mere remnant spirit is not worthy to know my name. If you know what's good for you, then step back. I will grant you a chance for magical exorcism. If you dare to obstruct me, then I will have no choice but to physically exorcise you."
The phantom figure didn't know what physical salvation was, but he was a Saint in life. Even though he had fallen many years ago, Saint cannot be insulted, and it was impossible to make him back down.
"Die!"
With a loud shout, he spat out a flame that swept towards Chu Feng.
Seeing this, Chu Feng pointed with both hands, Dao Sword flashed, easily piercing through the flames and dispersing the illusory image at the same time.
"Is it... over?"
Bai Long could hardly believe what he had just witnessed. It was a phantom image of a Saint; how could it have vanished so suddenly?
Rumble!
With a loud bang, the remains of the Qilin collapsed.
Chu Feng casually took out the sacred pill from the remains of the Qilin. Feeling the lingering heat within the pill, his eyes lit up.
This trip was definitely worthwhile.
Rocket Turtle immediately flew towards Chu Feng, saying, "My lord is invincible! A mere phantom of a sacred beast is nothing but a chicken or a dog before you!"
Chu Feng said calmly, "There's no need to repeat this fact."
Rocket Turtle:???
Bai Long: "..."
Let's go.
After landing, Chu Feng continued walking forward. There were no other restrictions or treasures in this palace.
However, for treasure hunters, a single elixir is worth more than all the treasures in the world.
The group passed through the Fifth Palace without any hindrance and soon stepped onto the stone steps leading to the Sixth Palace.
A moment later, Chu Feng appeared at the entrance of the Sixth Palace. He did not rush into the Sixth Palace; even before entering, he sensed a terrifying aura.
The Bai Long seemed unaware of this aura and instinctively walked towards the Sixth Palace.
"Wait."
Chu Feng called out to Bai Long.
"Your Highness, is there something you need?"
Bai Long turned to look at Chu Feng, his eyes filled with doubt.
The two demonstrations by the Half-Saint had greatly boosted his confidence, making him want to go and take a look at the thirteenth palace.
"Something is wrong here."
Chu Feng began to scan the sixth palace with his divine sense, but his divine sense was unable to enter the sixth palace at all. He then turned his gaze to the place where his divine sense was blocked.
There stood half a stone tablet. Chu Feng walked up to it, picked it up, and looked closely to see that it was inscribed with a Sanskrit phrase.
"No one below the level of True Buddha may enter; violator shall die!"
Upon hearing this, both Bai Long and Rocket Turtle turned their gazes to Chu Feng.
"Sir, what should we do next?" Rocket Turtle asked.
"Let's go, this is not a place we can enter for the time being."
Chu Feng has always acted cautiously and would never act rashly, especially since he sensed danger in this place.
Knowing full well that there are tigers in the mountains, yet still venturing into the tiger's den—this is not his style.
"Promise."
Rocket Turtle and Bai Long, though slightly disappointed, still followed Chu Feng away.
The group returned the way they came, and by the time they arrived at the Water Palace, it was already daylight outside.
Chu Feng turned to Bai Long beside him and asked, "What are your plans next?"
Bai Long cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I plan to rebuild my physical body here in the Linjiang River by relying on the Incense-Faith Power. My only concern is that other powerful figures might come looking for trouble."
Chu Feng smiled and said, "So, you're looking for protection?"
"I, Xiaolong, am willing to serve Your Highness. Please accept me as your servant."
Bai Long wasn't stupid; he could naturally see that the Half-Saint Chu before him was very interested in that small world.
Chu Feng said, "There's no need for you to accept me. However, I can protect you three times, but you must guard this small world for me."
"Three times is enough. Little Dragon is willing to be Your Highness's watchdog."
Bai Long agreed without hesitation. Countless people wanted to get involved with Half-Saint but never had the chance. Now, a golden opportunity was presented to him. If he missed it, wouldn't all these years of his life have been wasted?
Chu Feng: "Go and find a fine spirit jade."
"Promise."
After Bai Long finished speaking, he left.
Rocket Turtle watched the Bai Long's excited retreating figure, feeling extremely depressed.
"Sir, I can do guarding the gate too, and I can do it better than this guy."
Chu Feng chuckled and tapped Rocket Turtle on the head, "I still have other uses for your turtle brain. It's too much of a waste to have you guarding the gate."
Upon hearing this, Rocket Turtle excitedly circled around its underwater palace several times.
Half an hour later, Chu Feng, accompanied by Rocket Turtle and led by Bai Long, emerged from the Linjiang River.
This scene was witnessed by the abbot of the Dragon King Temple.
As the temple master, he naturally recognized the Bai Long before him. Overjoyed, he almost exclaimed that the Dragon King was still alive.
He hurriedly ran forward and knelt down, respectfully saying, "This humble servant greets Your Majesty the Dragon King, Your Highness the Half-Saint."
Bai Long waved his hand. "No need for formalities. By the way, go back and tell the Linjiang City that I was rescued by His Highness and can still perform the duties of the River God and make up for the Dragon King Festival."
"Yes."
The temple keeper responded and then turned to leave.
Chu Feng then stepped into the air and returned to the inn where he was staying.
As soon as he landed, Elder Bing, Chen Qianqian, and the Golden-Winged Eagle King came to greet him.
"Young Master/Master/Brother, are you alright?"
Chu Feng looked puzzled. "Do I look like something's wrong?"
The Golden-Winged Eagle King, "But you've been gone for more than ten days."
Have I been gone that long?
Chu Feng muttered to himself, in his memory he had only been in that small world for one night, how come so much time had passed outside?
The law must be the Power of Law.
The Power of Law of that fallen True God still exists, which is why the flow of time in the small world is different from that in the outside world.
Unfortunately, I am not strong enough to see that True God.
Bing Yan asked, "Young Master, could it be that you encountered trouble in the True God Ruins?"
Chu Feng nodded. "We did encounter some minor troubles, but the gains were also considerable."
As he spoke, he took out the sacred pill from his storage ring.
Upon seeing this sacred pill, the Golden-Winged Eagle King's bloodline memories caused him to blurt out the name.
"If a cultivator who has mastered the True Essence of Fire refines the sacred pill of the Saint Realm Fire Qilin, they will definitely be able to break through to the Saint Realm directly."
Although Chen Qianqian didn't know what the Saint Realm was, seeing the surprised expressions on the faces of her Martial Uncle Golden Wing and Mistress, she knew this thing was extraordinary, and her mouth formed an "O" shape.
Chu Feng smiled and said, "If I remember correctly, a Saint Realm beast core can be used to refine Saint Enlightenment Pill. This beast core, combined with some spiritual herbs, can at least refine two batches of Saint Enlightenment Pill."
"That's true, but the Saint Enlightenment Pill is for Half-Saint who are about to become saints. After all, a single Saint Enlightenment Pill can only help a cultivator comprehend the True Essence of the Great Dao, not help them become saints on their own..."
The Golden-Winged Eagle King paused here, then looked at Chu Feng with a surprised expression and asked, "Could it be that you are not far from becoming a saint?"
