Chapter 513 - 513 Descendant of the Emperor's Lineage (3)
513 Descendant of the Emperor’s Lineage (3)
When the star-level expert heard these words, he felt a tinge of regret, but still replied, “There’s no need for Young Master Feng to be modest.”
“For someone as young as you to reach the star level, you must have exceptional talents even within the Feng family.”
Lin Feng smiled without saying a word. He didn’t delve too much into these discussions. He was merely pretending, and talking too much would only lead to more mistakes.
However, when he probed the flying ship with his mental power earlier, he did discover something.
The flying ship seemed to be based on an array formation, harnessing energy from the ambient air, resembling the way divine-level condensation arrays manipulated rules.
The difference was that divine-level arrays harnessed the power of rules, whereas these arrays utilized the energy in the air.
Due to the essential nature of this energy, Lin Feng refrained from asking Fang Lan and the others about it. He decided to wait until he reached Danyang City to find someone to inquire about it.
Nevertheless, in this world, the ability to extract free energy through arrays for propulsion was widespread, and he assumed there would be ample research on the topic. He might end up reading a number of books.
During the journey, the star-level member of the Nie family repeatedly attempted to engage Lin Feng in conversation. It seemed like he was curious about the Central Province or wanted to establish a connection with Lin Feng, the “young master of the Feng family.” However, Lin Feng only casually replied, withholding critical information. This left the star-level Nie family member somewhat puzzled.
Yet, the Nie family member didn’t think too deeply into it. After all, being a star-level expert at such a young age was a rare achievement. Without a powerful lineage backing him, who could nurture someone like that?
As for whether he was impersonating a descendant of the Emperor’s lineage, no one had the guts to do so.
Nonetheless, Lin Feng managed to gather some useful information from the Nie family member.
Danyang City was under the jurisdiction of the Great Xia Dynasty. The Nie family held the position of city lord, a title directly conferred by the central dynasty. However, the city was essentially a border city.
To the east of Danyang City lay the territory of the Black Emperor’s Great Zhou Dynasty. A mountain range known as the Sunset Mountain Range separated the two, presenting a formidable natural barrier.
It was said that at dusk, one side of the Sunset Mountain Range was shrouded in darkness while the other side was still bathed in the light of the setting sun. This unique phenomenon led to the name ‘Sunset Mountain Range,’ indicative of its imposing height.
Legend had it that a divine-level expert had perished in this range. As a result, many young talents ventured there each year, hoping to uncover opportunities.
Not to mention the precious divine corpse, even its own small world might turn into a secret realm on the spot for others to explore.
The area where a divine-level expert died often gave birth to exceptional resources near God Burial Land, making it easier for ordinary individuals to become strong.
Lin Feng didn’t ask many more questions, only inquiring about the local situation to avoid arousing suspicion.
Upon learning about the Sunset Mountain Range, a thought occurred to him.
If there is indeed a divine-level secret realm in the Sunset Mountain Range where a divine-level expert died, I wonder if that realm still exists, Lin Feng mused.
For him, the best way to become stronger was to devour secret realms. If he could find the secret realm of the divine-level expert, it might lead to significant advancement.
The next sentence from the Nie family star-level expert caused Lin Feng’s heart to race.
“It’s rumored that the spatial fluctuations in the Sunset Mountain Range have been unusually frequent lately. Some speculate that the divine-level world buried there is about to transform into a secret realm, and so, many geniuses from various families might gather. Young Master Feng’s timing is indeed fortuitous.”
Lin Feng squinted his eyes and further questioned the Nie family member about the Sunset Mountain Range. In this manner, their conversation continued, and they soon arrived at Danyang City.
