Chapter 2705 Tao Tao’s Advancement

When the Bandel King saw the Spirit Gathering Formation arranged by Lin Feng, he was incredibly surprised. He never expected such a young man to have such profound formation mastery. Although the Alien Race doesn’t know formations, he had previously seen humans arrange formations, and Lin Feng’s level was beyond his expectations.

After the Spirit Gathering Formation was completed, Lin Feng released Tao Tao alone from the Cave Heaven Mansion. Tao Tao froze when she found herself in such a strange environment, but as long as Lin Feng was by her side, she was not afraid. She walked to Lin Feng’s side and said, "Brother Lin, where is this place?"

"It’s still the Frost Highland, but this environment is especially suitable for your cultivation. You can try to break through to Divine Venerable, and if it doesn’t work, I can help you," Lin Feng said to Tao Tao.

Upon hearing Lin Feng, Tao Tao didn’t ask more and trusted him completely. She then adjusted her breath, suspended herself within the Spirit Gathering Formation, and closed her eyes.

Tao Tao circulated the Exquisite Imperial Heart Manual within her body, and instantly, the surrounding Yuan Energy crazily surged towards her. A faint pink aura quickly emerged around Tao Tao, as the Yuangang and cultivation technique in her body began to circulate and fuse, encasing her in a cloud of pink mist.

The Yuan Energy surged continuously, causing the space around Tao Tao to shake. Having enhanced her physical body before, this breakthrough should be smoother, but the bottleneck between Divine King and Divine Venerable is not one that everyone can break through. Tao Tao kept her eyes tightly shut in mid-air, layers of sweat appearing on her delicate cheeks, feeling as though her blood was boiling, threatening to melt her.

In such a situation, Tao Tao could only rely on herself, with Lin Feng helping only at the critical moment, which was not yet.

"Ah!"

Tao Tao let out a trembling scream in mid-air, unable to bear such torment any longer, feeling as if she were in heart-piercing agony. The Exquisite Imperial Heart Manual operated within her, but to no effect, so she accelerated Yuangang circulation to complete the final breakthrough, knowing that if she failed now, she would remain stuck at Divine King.

She couldn’t let this happen!

Resolute in her heart, she told herself she must improve her strength, not let Brother Lin worry about her, become powerful to aid him, and she could do it. Thinking of her grandfather and his last words before passing, she silently clenched her teeth, even drawing blood from her lips.

The pink Yuan Energy grew more intense, almost drowning Tao Tao, eventually nearing a liquid state. If she fainted now, all persistence would be wasted, as the Yuan Energy circulation within her had far exceeded her tolerance, turning this moment into a real danger.

Yet she didn’t give up, continuing to accelerate Yuangang transformation. Having failed once before, she was determined to succeed this time.

The surrounding pink Yuan Energy approached a rampage state, seemingly ready to engulf Tao Tao at any moment. If she didn’t advance to Divine Venerable soon, her body would sustain severe damage.

Seeing this situation, Lin Feng knew the time had come. He leaped to Tao Tao’s side, gathered Seven-Colored Essence Gang into his hands, which emitted a dazzling light. He pressed his hands onto Tao Tao’s back, allowing the Seven-Colored Essence Gang to penetrate her body instantly, intertwining with her pink Yuangang, causing her to burst with varied colors.

Tao Tao’s eyes suddenly opened, feeling every bone in her body reconstructing, like being reborn. She vividly sensed the Seven-Colored Essence Gang, driving her pink Yuangang crazily within, reaching every corner of her body.

Seeing this, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, withdrawing his hands from Tao Tao’s back. Instantly, the Seven-Colored Essence Gang left her body, yet her pink Yuangang didn’t stop, continuing to run within her at the previous speed.

It turned out that Lin Feng’s Seven-Colored Essence Gang merely played a catalytic role, the genuine advancement relying on Tao Tao herself.

Witnessing how Lin Feng’s Seven-Colored Essence Gang facilitated Tao Tao’s advancement, the Bandel King was amazed from afar. Although he was of the Alien Race, he understood some of human cultivation and had never known that advancement could be assisted by others, and Lin Feng’s effortless push made Tao Tao successful, an unbelievable feat.

Watching the pink Yuangang on Tao Tao, like a landslide pushing outward, enveloping the space within a few hundred miles around, the power of this Yuangang causing countless fractures in everything within the space.

And the Bandel King sensed the powerful aura, instantly turning his Divine Soul into a protective shield around the golden skeleton, which, from afar, looked like a floating golden sphere.

Until the faint pink Yuan Energy behind Tao Tao gradually dissipated, she clearly felt different, having fully advanced to Divine Venerable strength.

"Brother Lin..." Tao Tao slowly opened her eyes in the air, barely calling Lin Feng’s name before fainting.

Lin Feng hurriedly flew forward to catch Tao Tao, then took out an elixir from the space and fed it to Tao Tao, laying her flat on the ground. Tao Tao was not seriously hurt; she just felt slightly uncomfortable after just advancing to Divine Venerable, with the Yuangang inside her being a bit restless, but she would be fine in no time.

While Tao Tao was still asleep, Lin Feng walked over to Bandel King and continued chatting with him.

"Senior, you said this nine-story Ice Tower is a gift for me. How am I supposed to subdue it?" Lin Feng thought of Bandel King’s words. He felt truly fortunate to always have such opportunities. If he could really subdue the nine-story Ice Tower, he could make it float above his Sect when he established it in the future, practically becoming a walking Cave Heaven Mansion.

This also reminded him of Sky City, Rong City, and he still didn’t know how Rong City’s renovation was progressing.

"I’ve sealed my Divine Soul within this tower. If you subdue it, I will follow you always," Bandel King said to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded, closed his eyes, and clearly listened in his mind to the secret method Bandel King taught him for subduing the nine-story Ice Tower.

Before long, Tao Tao woke up, and Lin Feng bid farewell to Bandel King. He then took Tao Tao and rode the Azure Flame Frost Tiger directly out of the nine-story Ice Tower.

The Azure Flame Frost Tiger carried Lin Feng and Tao Tao, hovering around the tower. Lin Feng used the secret method he had just learned, instantly using his Divine Sense to control the secret technique. The nine-story Ice Tower gradually became smaller, eventually shrinking to a black ice tower just over a zhang high, and flew into Lin Feng’s hand.

Lin Feng smiled faintly and stored the Dharma Treasure into his Space Ring.

After flying out of the giant pit, Lin Feng, with Tao Tao riding on the Azure Flame Frost Tiger’s back, continued heading north. Lin Feng took out a map for which he had paid five hundred thousand Yuan Stones from his space, reviewed it repeatedly, and then asked the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, "Are we in the center of the Frost Highland yet?"

"Not yet, but we’re getting close," replied the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, increasing its speed, then asked, "Do you have a specific destination in mind?"

"No, we’ll just find any city to stop by," Lin Feng replied.

Tao Tao slept curled in Lin Feng’s arms. Her body hadn’t fully recovered after her advancement, and it was unknown how much time passed until the Azure Flame Frost Tiger stopped outside the walls of a city.

The Azure Flame Frost Tiger said to Lin Feng, "This is Ruoga City, one of the ten major sub-cities."

Lin Feng looked at the city walls before him. It was much more magnificent than the small city they encountered before, though still not as grand as the buildings in the Myriad Heavens Divine Cult, it was nonetheless majestic and tall. The walls were made of black stone, towering over a hundred zhang high.

After jumping down from the back of the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, Lin Feng and Tao Tao walked into Ruoga City together.

As the two of them, along with the beast, stepped into the city, everyone’s gaze focused on them. Although this was a sub-city, the people in the city looked at Lin Feng with curiosity, exchanging information amongst themselves. It had been many years since they had seen a human strongman, and they were very curious about how this person had managed to reach Ruoga City.

The Alien Race population was sparse, and those who could reach the level of a Divine Emperor were even scarcer. Thus, their chances of seeing a powerhouse were not common, and with Lin Feng having a beautiful woman and a giant demon beast with him, it stirred more curiosity. If he could subdue a Demon Emperor level beast, this human must be immensely powerful.

"Why are the people in this city staring at us?" Tao Tao asked, puzzled as she looked at Lin Feng, not fond of being the center of attention.

"Maybe they’ve never seen a human," Lin Feng said lightly. He suddenly recalled what the old village chief had mentioned before, that the ten major sub-cities were controlled by ten Prominent Families, so the main task now was to locate the residence of that family.

As this thought crossed Lin Feng’s mind, suddenly two armored Aliens appeared before him. The two Aliens were tall, strong, and robust. Using spiritual power, they spoke to him: "Our leader invites you."

"Alright," Lin Feng, looking at the two Aliens before him, was also quite curious. He had just entered the city, and the City Lord was already seeking him. After a brief consideration, he said, then turned to tell Tao Tao and the Azure Flame Frost Tiger: "I’ll go take a look alone; you wait here for me."

"Alright, Brother Lin." Tao Tao nodded, and the Azure Flame Frost Tiger lay down on the spot.

After making arrangements for Tao Tao and the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, Lin Feng followed the two Aliens to the center of the city. In front of him stood a giant building, its structure extremely peculiar, resembling a human cathedral. The entire structure stretched several hundred miles in circumference, emanating a faint black glow that sent shivers down one’s spine.
