The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 498: Heaven-Flipping Hand Seal!

A thunderous roar echoed through the sky, reverberating across Liuxian Peak. The ground rumbled as a massive fissure suddenly split open at the base of the main peak. Ling Feng, channeling his true qi, meticulously embedded a colossal ore vein into the earth.

The weight of the ore vein was almost unbearable as it forced Ling Feng to stoop under its immense pressure. Only after unlocking his third Primordial Lock could he barely withstand the overwhelming gravity.

"U-Uh..."

Lin Xian\'er, Su Hongxiu, and others rushed out from inside the grand hall of the main peak and witnessed Ling Feng seemingly hauling a small mountain. It appeared that he intended to insert this mountain under Liuxian Peak!

Isn\'t this the legendary ability to move mountains and overturn seas?

Lin Xian\'er was dumbfounded, her throat dry. Is this still a martial artist in the Pulse Formation Realm?

Not only were those on Liuxian Peak astonished, but every person from every peak and branch was also shocked by this scene.

They had wondered how Ling Feng would transport the legendary elemental ore vein. As it turned out, he truly carried it!

"What kind of technique is this?"

"Oh my god, has the sect leader become a spirit?"

To the lower-level martial artists who had never witnessed such grandeur, Ling Feng\'s mountain-moving technique was a spell only a god could wield.

Indeed, the despicable donkey\'s Heaven-Flipping Hand Seal was extraordinary and boosted Ling Feng\'s strength thirtyfold. Without it, him with his Pulse Formation Realm cultivation would never have managed such an outrageous feat.

Learning the Heaven-Flipping Hand Seal was challenging as it required not only a high realm but also the ability to continuously perform the seal forty-nine times in quick succession. Even the despicable donkey, despite being a divine beast, took half a year to master it.

Seeing Ling Feng succeed in one attempt, the despicable donkey was so disheartened that it lost its boastful spirit.

"Why is the sect leader placing a small mountain under Liuxian Peak?"

Most ordinary disciples, unaware of the high-ups\' meeting, could not recognize the elemental ore vein and dared not imagine such a thing.

Elder Yao soon spread a plausible explanation: Ling Feng was enhancing the main peak\'s defensive array.

The elemental ore vein, naturally, was kept secret to avoid attracting powerful sects\' attention.

The entire process lasted about the time it took to burn an incense stick. After embedding the elemental ore vein, Liuxian Peak\'s height abruptly rose by ten zhang.

"Phew..."

Ling Feng exhaled deeply, utterly exhausted from the endeavor. The despicable donkey, with a casual flick of its hoof, could easily separate several mineral veins.

Truly, a demon king-level expert was formidable!

As he descended back to Liuxian Peak, Ling Feng stumbled, almost falling. Fortunately, Lin Xian\'er quickly supported him, preventing embarrassment.

"I didn\'t expect transporting the mineral vein to be such a burden. I need to rest for a few days."

Ling Feng smiled wryly. Three days would be enough for a good rest.

"Why push yourself so hard?" Lin Xian\'er, seeing Ling Feng\'s frailty, felt an inexplicable pang of heartache. She supported him back to the grand hall.

"Sect Leader." Su Hongxiu also rushed over, helping Lin Xian\'er escort Ling Feng to rest.

...

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

With Ling Feng\'s formidable physique and the vitality-sharing ability of Zifeng\'s Vitality Fusion, his recovery was swift.

Besides his daily cultivation, Ling Feng also took the time to set up a Spirit Mountain Array on the main peak. This array not only concealed the elemental ore vein\'s aura but also drew rich elemental qi from the environment that enveloped Liuxian Peak and the entire Jiuxian Mountain range in it.

Over time, the Wenxian Sect\'s mountain gate would transform into a haven brimming with spiritual energy.

Of course, the method for setting up the Spirit Mountain Array came from the despicable donkey.

In the rear hall of Lingyun Hall.

After completing a set of sword moves, Ling Feng sheathed his sword and exhaled slowly.

Counting with his fingers, he realized that tomorrow was the day of the triennial martial arts competition.

"Sect Leader, come quickly for lunch," Su Hongxiu called out as she ran over.

"Mhmm." Ling Feng nodded slightly and smiled. "I\'ve been spoiled by your delicious food these past few days."

"Hehe." Su Hongxiu squinted her eyes and smiled playfully. "There\'s a special surprise today."

"Oh?" Ling Feng raised an eyebrow. "I\'ll have to taste it properly then!"

Before long, the two arrived at the dining hall.

Lin Xian\'er had already arrived and, seeing Ling Feng, bit her lip and called out softly, "Ling Feng, you\'re here!"

Ling Feng smiled with narrowed eyes, his gaze sweeping over Lin Xian\'er\'s face. Noticing some black soot on her fair cheeks, he couldn\'t help but laugh. "So the special surprise Hongxiu mentioned is the meal you cooked?"

Biting her lip, Lin Xian\'er conjured a food box from behind her and carefully laid out four or five exquisite dishes. "Sect Leader Ling, taste my cooking."

"Thank you." Ling Feng smiled lightly, picking up the chopsticks and taking a bite of the vegetables.

"How is it?" Lin Xian\'er anxiously watched Ling Feng, her autumn-like eyes fixed on him. "I\'ve been learning cooking from Hongxiu these past few days. Even if it\'s not good, d-don\'t be too harsh on it."

No wonder this girl had been nowhere to be seen for the past two days. She had been hiding in the kitchen learning how to cook!

As the flavor of the dish spread in his mouth, Ling Feng couldn\'t tell if it was salty or spicy. It was an utterly terrifying taste!

His mind seemed to explode, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Nevertheless, he maintained his smile and said, "It\'s delicious, thank you."

"Really? Haha, that\'s great!" Lin Xian\'er was so excited that she nearly started dancing. Hearing Ling Feng say it was delicious made her feel that her hard work over the past few days was worth it.

"I was worried you wouldn\'t like it. Since you do, I\'ll cook for you every day from now on, okay?" Lin Xian\'er said joyfully.

"Uh..." Ling Feng\'s expression stiffened momentarily, but seeing the hopeful look in Lin Xian\'er\'s eyes, he couldn\'t bear to refuse. He nodded and said, "Sure."

Anyway, he wouldn\'t have to endure it for many days.

He could just bear with it!

"Come on, let\'s all enjoy it together," Ling Feng said, handing a pair of chopsticks to Su Hongxiu with a smile. "They say a great teacher produces outstanding students. Since Xian\'er\'s cooking is so good, you as her teacher should also try it."

"Is it really that good? I haven\'t tried it yet," Su Hongxiu said, smiling. The dishes looked decent, so she picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.

Seeing this, a slight smile appeared on Ling Feng\'s lips.

The next moment, after chewing a few bites, Su Hongxiu\'s body stiffened as if struck by lightning, and her palms instantly started sweating.

"It\'s good, it\'s good," Su Hongxiu said, slowly putting down the chopsticks as her fingers visibly trembled.

"Haha, if you like it, have some more!" Ling Feng laughed, his eyes showing a hint of schadenfreude. "Come on, let\'s keep going. Hongxiu, this is Xian\'er\'s heartfelt effort. We must finish it all."

With that, Ling Feng leisurely picked up more food and put it into his mouth, praising it all the while.

However, he dared not chew anymore.

"What?" Su Hongxiu was on the verge of breaking down as she silently regretted her decision. Why? Why did I teach Lin Xian\'er how to cook?

1. Author\'s note: Because Ling Feng had become the new sect leader, Elder Yao had ordered a renovation of the sect leader\'s residence during Ling Feng\'s time at Tianwei Academy. The main hall where the sect leader resided was also renamed Lingyun Hall. ☜
