Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 706 -

As the dust slowly settled,

a giant sword, looking incredibly heavy, was seen suspended in midair.

The entire blade was covered in rust, not showing even a hint of sharpness.

If other cultivators from the Lower Realm saw this Hidden Edge Sword, they would surely think it was nothing more than scrap metal.

Shen Feng extended his right palm towards the Hidden Edge Sword floating in the air.

The rust-covered giant sword immediately began to spin in the air, and with a "swoosh", it flew rapidly into Shen Feng’s palm.

When he grabbed the rusty hilt of the Hidden Edge Sword, Shen Feng’s right arm instantly felt heavy, and he nearly stumbled and fell to the ground from the sword’s weight.

Back when Shen Feng crafted the Hidden Edge Sword, the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he used were very special, and due to its weight, not even a peak Condensing Immortal Stage powerhouse could lift it.

Since Shen Feng was the sword’s craftsman, there was a special connection between him and the sword, allowing some levitation power to form when he held it to reduce a portion of its weight.

Otherwise, even at his current Nascent Variation Peak cultivation, Shen Feng would likely be unable to lift the Hidden Edge Sword.

In the Immortal Realm, the levels of weapons, from low to high, were classified as Magic Artifact, Spiritual Artifact, Treasure Weapons, and Immortal Artifact.

Each level was further divided into Lower Grade, Middle Grade, Upper Grade, and Heavenly Grade.

This Hidden Edge Sword was a Middle Grade Immortal Artifact.

Typically, powerful cultivation was required to activate an Immortal Artifact, and the stronger the cultivation, the more powerful the artifact could be.

Throughout history, there had been no cultivator at the Nascent Variation Stage who could activate an Immortal Artifact; forcing activation would only result in backlash from the artifact.

Therefore, only those who had reached the Condensing Immortal Stage or higher could truly use an Immortal Artifact.

However, Shen Feng was very familiar with the Hidden Edge Sword, and due to the tacit understanding between them, he was confident that with his current cultivation, he could activate forty percent of the sword’s power.

With the Hidden Edge Sword in his right hand, his Perceptive Force swept through the surroundings. It seemed that now only this single Immortal Artifact was left here.

He took out the map Lu Xiangfu had given him. Now, if he used his full power to Soar Through the Sky, it should take about five days to reach the place where the Dragon Leap Gate was being held. He had sufficient time.

He planned to head towards the location of the Dragon Leap Gate while looking for a few abandoned Spirit Mines to accumulate a large amount of Spirit Stones, which would undoubtedly be useful in the Middle Realm.

Shen Feng did not activate the Hidden Edge Sword, so its surface remained covered in rust.

After hanging the sword on his back, his figure instantly stepped into the air and headed towards the location of the Dragon Leap Gate.

During such an important event as the Dragon Leap Gate, the Star Sea Sword Sect would naturally attend. Now that he had the Hidden Edge Sword, he would not let any member of the Star Sea Sword Sect escape when the time came.

However, about ten minutes after he stepped into the sky,

two figures appeared in the sky ahead, rapidly approaching through the air.

In just a few seconds, these two figures appeared in front of Shen Feng.

Upon seeing Shen Feng, they clearly paused for a moment.

One of them, a woman dressed in a white dress, exuding a fairy-like aura, was none other than Jiang Muyun, who had recently parted ways with Shen Feng. She was the top talent of the Moon Fallen Sect!

The other, an old woman in green next to Jiang Muyun, with wrinkles covering her face and exuding the aura of a late Tribulation Transcendence stage, was Meng Cuiqin, the Great Elder of the Moon Fallen Sect!

The Moon Fallen Sect was not far from here, and Jiang Muyun had just returned to the sect yesterday. She had come out with the Great Elder to handle a matter and did not expect to encounter Shen Feng on their way.

Jiang Muyun’s master was the current Sect Master of the Moon Fallen Sect. When she returned to the sect, she tried her best to make up various excuses, in an attempt to convince the Moon Fallen Sect not to join in on the pursuit of Shen Feng.

However,

Leading the group of elders, the Great Elder completely thought Jiang Muyun had gone mad. Shen Feng was now the enemy of both the Righteous Path and the Demon Path, and if their Moon Fallen Sect did not get involved, wouldn’t that cause the other sects to have opinions!

Furthermore.

The Great Elder, Meng Cuiqin, had a granddaughter whose talent was only slightly inferior to Jiang Muyun’s.

Without Jiang Muyun, her granddaughter would definitely be able to become the Saintess within the Moon Fallen Sect.

Therefore, Meng Cuiqin had always had some issues with Jiang Muyun.

When this time Jiang Muyun actually persuaded them not to get involved in this matter, Meng Cuiqin immediately took the opportunity to make things difficult.

This time, the sentiment within the Moon Fallen Sect was overwhelmingly siding with the Great Elder; after all, Shen Feng had become the public enemy of both the Righteous Path and the Demon Path, and they could not just be bystanders.

In the end, the matter was temporarily settled through the mediation of the Sect Master.

The day of the Dragon Leap Gate had arrived, but the number one talents of the Cold Extreme Palace and the Star Sea Sword Sect had all perished.

Members of these two sects demanded that Jiang Muyun visit their sects to detail the events that transpired inside the golden building.

Meng Cuiqin volunteered to accompany Jiang Muyun on this visit, which the Sect Master of the Moon Fallen Sect could not refuse.

The Sect Master of the Star Sea Sword Sect was already waiting at the Cold Extreme Palace for Jiang Muyun’s arrival. According to Meng Cuiqin’s wishes, they would head to the Dragon Leap Gate together with people from the Cold Extreme Palace.

Who would have known that not long after they left the Moon Fallen Sect, they would encounter Shen Feng, who was currently being hunted by both the Righteous Path and the Demon Path.

Naturally, Meng Cuiqin had seen Shen Feng’s portrait, which is why she, like Jiang Muyun, was briefly taken aback.

After coming to her senses.

A look of wild joy appeared on the old crone Meng Cuiqin’s face. This Shen Feng was the person that sects like the Cold Extreme Palace wanted dead. If she brought Shen Feng’s head to their doorstep, they would undoubtedly treat her as an honored guest. She would surely receive many unexpected benefits.

At this thought.

Her expression grew colder, and a faint killing intent overflowed from within her.

Suddenly, Jiang Muyun made her move, placing herself in front of Shen Feng. Her beautiful eyes stared directly at Meng Cuiqin with a pleading tone, "Great Elder, please spare him this once. The fact that I could walk out of the golden building alive was all thanks to him."

Despite knowing that Meng Cuiqin had always looked at her unfavorably, Jiang Muyun eventually chose to stand out.

Even though Shen Feng’s combat strength was indeed formidable, the prospect of defeating Meng Cuiqin, who was at the Late Stage of Tribulation Transcendence, with Nascent Variation Peak cultivation, seemed almost impossible to Jiang Muyun.

Seeing Jiang Muyun blocking her way, Meng Cuiqin shouted coldly, "Jiang Muyun, do you realize what you’re doing?"

"This kid is being hunted by all sects of both the Righteous Path and the Demon Path. I can understand that you spoke in his favor within our sect because of a moment of impulsiveness."

"But now, seeing your behavior, I’m starting to suspect, do you have some sordid affair with this lad?"

"Move aside immediately, you are indeed the number one talent of the Moon Fallen Sect."

"However, if you insist on protecting this lad, then even if I were to kill you, I doubt the Sect Master would have anything to say about it."

With that, she suddenly swung her arm.

The aura of someone in the Late Stage of Tribulation Transcendence rushed towards Jiang Muyun.

With a "bang!"

After being struck by Meng Cuiqin’s aura, Jiang Muyun, who was only in the Initial Stage of Sea Transformation, could not resist and was forced to fly about ten meters to the left.

Simultaneously.

Meng Cuiqin, with a cold smirk, glared at Shen Feng and declared, "I’ll take your head!"
