Chapter 475: Chapter 475: Xiao Fangu vs Dong Qiang, Creating a Cultivation Chamber
Hearing that Xiao Fangu was going to challenge Dong Qiang, Bai Minglu spat out the grass root in his mouth and said, “Junior Brother Xiao, don’t be impulsive!”
Xi Xinyu, on the other hand, encouraged him, “I think Junior Brother Xiao can definitely do it, he’s so strong, he can absolutely defeat Dong Qiang.”
Silly woman!
Bai Minglu silently criticized.
He believed that Ye Feng wouldn’t have arbitrarily placed the unknown Dong Qiang at the ninety-first position.
Instead of challenging Dong Qiang, Xiao Fangu would be better off challenging number one hundred, Ji Ziling first.
If he won, then it would not be too late to continue challenging upward.
Bai Minglu shared his thoughts, but Xiao Fangu opposed them.
“Ji Ziling is just so-so; it’s said she has no notable achievements at all, presenting hardly any challenge. It’s better to go straight for Dong Qiang.”
Having decided, Xiao Fangu was determined to issue a challenge to Liuyun Sect today.
Whoosh!
He flew out on his sword.
Bai Minglu did not stop him but shook his head instead.
“Ah, really impetuous!” Bai Minglu shrugged his shoulders, “In my opinion, challenging the ninety-ninth ranked Wang Ping’an would be easier than challenging Ji Ziling.”
Xi Xinyu looked at Bai Minglu with a hint of dissatisfaction, “Senior Brother Bai, why do you always look down on Junior Brother Xiao?”
Bai Minglu was speechless.
It’s not that I look down on him; it’s that he’s really too rash and can’t see his own strength clearly.
Not wanting to argue with a woman like Xi Xinyu, who had fallen in love and lost some of her rationality, he turned and walked away.
Liuyun Sect.
Dong Qiang was cultivating.
Suddenly, a deep voice came from deep in the sky, shaking the entire Liuyun Sect.
“Dong Qiang, I’ve heard you’ve ascended to the ninety-first position on the prodigy board. I, Xiao Fangu, issue a challenge to you!”
The resonant voice spread, shaking heaven and earth.
Dong Qiang staggered and almost fell over.
“This Xiao Fangu, so annoying!”
Dong Qiang wiped off his sweat, preparing to feign death, but after some thought, he decided to refuse directly, “I…”
“Accept it!”
Both Dong Dongqiang and Demon King Huyuan spoke at the same time, causing Dong Qiang to halt mid-sentence, his face filled with surprise.
“Huh?”
Dong Qiang was baffled.
“Have you trained yourself stupid? Xiao Fangu is currently just at the second peak of Element Gathering Realm, not even your match. What’s there to be afraid of? If you can’t even defeat Xiao Fangu, I’ll self-destruct on the spot!”
Dong Dongqiang said irritably.
“Old thief, if you want to die, don’t drag me into it!” Demon King Huyuan cursed.
Dong Qiang fell silent.
He thought for a moment and then said, “Fine, I accept the challenge and will give Xiao Fangu a solid beating for daring to disturb my cultivation.”
Boom!
Dong Qiang soared into the sky, appeared above Liuyun Sect, and looking at Xiao Fangu who stood with his sword hanging in mid-air, said, “Xiao Fangu, I accept your challenge. Tell me, when do we start?”
“Three days from now, near Whitefloat City!”
Xiao Fangu stated.
He had calculated his moves perfectly.
Defeating Dong Qiang in the wilderness wouldn’t make much of an impression; he had to set the battle where there were crowds to make his victory meaningful.
Moreover, by purposely choosing Whitefloat City, he also aimed to prove his strength to Misty Sect after defeating Dong Qiang.
“Ye Feng, you really think I cannot progress after leaving Misty Sect? This battle will be a beautiful victory!”
Thinking so, Xiao Fangu left behind a golden metal piece as a challenge letter and flew away.
“Wow, daring to challenge our Brother Dong Qiang, Xiao Fangu sure is full of himself!”
“Our Brother Dong Qiang is sure to win.”
The disciples of Liuyun Sect shouted one after another.
Dong Qiang accepted the challenge letter and felt annoyed at the thought of having to fight near Whitefloat City.
If Ye Feng discovered his secrets, that would be disastrous.
“Don’t panic. If Ye Feng couldn’t find out before, he definitely won’t find out now. Just go ahead and arrange the fight with Xiao Fangu, but remember, you must grind him fiercely into the ground.”
Dong Dongqiang said in a deep voice.
“Yes, Elder.” Dong Qiang nodded repeatedly.
Misty Peak.
Ye Feng was deep in thought.
In front of him, a huge round platform was laid out, the very one he extracted from the storage ring of the Goddess Mingyue.
By investing fifty thousand Prestige Points, Ye Feng had obtained the construction method for this exceptional Spirit Gathering Array.
He had even gathered all the materials.
Now was the time to begin crafting.
Yet, Ye Feng hesitated.
“The land of our Misty Sect is not big enough; constructing a Spirit Gathering Array would take up quite a bit of land.”
“What should I do now?”
“Right! I can craft a Spirit Gathering Tower, setting up many secret chambers inside, each with its own Spirit Gathering Array. Not only would this save land, but it would also create a sufficiently secluded environment.”
Ye Feng had an idea.
When cultivating, one definitely must not be disturbed.
Therefore, building a Spirit Gathering Tower with secret chambers inside for secluded cultivation was, indeed, the best solution.
Thinking this, the corners of Ye Feng’s mouth lifted.
“I can build a tower with its interior forged into a Minor Heavenly World; that way, the space will be plenty large.”
Ye Feng no longer hesitated and immediately set to work.
Clang!
A great quantity of materials was poured into the Refining Furnace; it began to sound with forging noises, continuously refining the Spiritual Artifacts needed by Ye Feng.
“Big news!”
“Xiao Fangu of Qingyun Sect has challenged Dong Qiang of Liuyun Sect, the time and place set for three days later near Whitefloat City.”
“Wow!”
“That means we can go watch the duel.”
Misty Sect began buzzing with this news.
While Ye Feng was refining the Spirit Gathering Tower, he heard the noise and his expression gradually turned odd.
“Xiao Fangu challenging Dong Qiang… is he seeking abuse?”
He shook his head, speechless regarding Xiao Fangu’s action.
With Xiao Fangu’s measly strength, in front of Dong Qiang, who practiced Dual Cultivation of Magic and Body and was endowed with immense fortune, he would only be asking to be trounced.
This challenge held no appeal.
Ye Feng continued to refine the Spirit Gathering Tower.
Three days later.
The lid of the Refining Furnace popped open for the tenth time, and a uniquely shaped Spiritual Artifact appeared, which Ye Feng caught.
“Finally done!”
Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief.
To craft the Spirit Gathering Tower, he had used many rare materials, even a considerable amount of the Demon Emperor’s Skeletal Remains, and even a Supreme Grade Spirit Stone of immeasurable value.
“The Spirit Gathering Tower is composed of ten parts, which when assembled surpass a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact and are considered a half-step Spiritual Treasure.”
Ye Feng pieced together the ten Spiritual Artifacts into a Nine-Layered Pagoda, standing one foot tall.
After that, he refined a type of Spiritual Liquid, pouring it over the top of the Spirit Gathering Tower, filling all the Array Patterns and finally activating it.
“Spirit Gathering Tower, open!”
Ye Feng threw out the pagoda, making it land on the bank of the Spirit Lake situated between the four peaks, adjacent to the Lapis Stone he had enlightened.
Hum!
The Spirit Gathering Tower began to expand.
In an instant, the tower reached thirty meters in height, with a base diameter of ten meters; from the outside, it didn’t appear very large, but each layer contained a Miniature Cave Heaven World.
The concentration of Spiritual Energy within it increased from the lower to the higher levels.
“Finally done.”
Ye Feng stood beneath the tower, looking up at the plaque above the first level’s door inscribed with the words “Spirit Gathering Tower,” feeling greatly pleased.
“Look, what is that?”
“Why is there another pagoda? It looks ancient and sacred, even two stories taller than the Cultivation Tower, and it has the ability to gather Spiritual Energy from all directions.”
The disciples discussed the Spirit Gathering Tower among themselves.
“This is the Spirit Gathering Tower, which contains a Spirit Gathering Array inside, enhancing the speed of cultivation. All disciples of our Misty Sect are welcome to cultivate inside the tower and strive to break through their realms as soon as possible.”
Ye Feng’s resounding and clear voice spread rapidly, reaching the ears of every cultivator in the Misty Sect.
“It’s actually a Spirit Gathering Tower!”
“That’s great, let’s go cultivate right away.”
The disciples were overjoyed and immediately flew on their swords toward the Spirit Gathering Tower.
