After Gu Qianqian finished playing a complete piece, having practiced all the techniques of the Seven Absolute Strings,
Chen Feng’s mind finally recalled the prompt.
【Disciple’s mastery of Seven Absolute Strings has entered the beginner stage, Achievement Unlocked: Master’s Disciple】.
【Reward: Master’s Seven Absolute Strings realm elevated to Unity of Heaven and Man】.
Upon reaching the Unity of Heaven and Man in his understanding of the Seven Absolute Strings,
Chen Feng couldn’t help but marvel at the skill’s description.
The Seven Absolute Strings suppress all protective aura defenses.
Just based on this alone, Chen Feng was confident—
If he ever encountered Wei Guangming again,
he would definitely be able to defeat him.
At the same time, a new thought formed in his mind.
He glanced down at the shackles binding his hands and feet.
“Qianqian, step back a little.”
“Let me see if I can break these chains.”
Gu Qianqian was still immersed in the joy of being able to see again.
Upon hearing Chen Feng’s words, she immediately moved to the side near the stone door.
Chen Feng stretched out both hands, mimicking the motion of grabbing at empty air to his left, then slowly pulled to the right.
Seven strings, formed from his own qi and blood, appeared in midair.
Each string was vividly red, like threads of blood.
This was the Seven Absolute Strings, the manifestation of the Unity of Heaven and Man realm.
A state of having no physical instrument.
In the next moment, a giant shadow, identical in appearance to Chen Feng, enveloped his body.
The sound of Buddhist chants instantly filled the entire stone chamber.
Gu Qianqian listened curiously to the strange chanting.
The colossal shadow’s huge fingers plucked the strings before it; as the strings vibrated, they unleashed streams of golden dragons.
In an instant, thousands of dragons surged wildly, roaring fiercely.
Under Chen Feng’s control, these golden dragons formed from sound waves and palm force crashed against the chains binding his feet.
Stone chips scattered, sparks flew.
Wave after wave of sound wave dragons relentlessly battered the iron chains on the ground.
Chen Feng attacked frantically, paying no mind to the depletion of his qi and blood.
The Buddha’s Palm technique fused with the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms, plucking the Seven Absolute Strings to shoot out powerful sonic attacks.
With the fusion of these three Unity of Heaven and Man techniques, the chains finally began to give way.
After a shower of sparks, a gap appeared in the iron chain binding his left foot.
Chen Feng was overjoyed and didn’t pause his assault for a moment.
Before long, he was drenched in sweat from exhaustion.
But then, with a loud snap,
the iron chain broke.
“It’s finally broken... I’m exhausted.”
Chen Feng collapsed onto the ground, gasping for breath.
It had to be said, relying on the Unity of Heaven and Man realm and the fusion of three techniques, his power had increased once again.
However, the strain on his body was equally greater.
Just from this short battle,
Chen Feng felt as if his qi and blood were nearly drained.
His subconscious craved someone to come and absorb some of his energy with the Northern Darkness Divine Skill.
But his escape was far from over; he still had to push forward.
Four chains bound him, only one broken, three more remained.
Hearing Chen Feng break one chain, Gu Qianqian eagerly exclaimed,
“That’s great! Hurry and break the other chains too.”
“While no one’s here, I can help you escape.”
Her words moved Chen Feng deeply.
Logically,
as an outsider, he should be the enemy of their Kunlun tribe.
If the roles were reversed, could he be as selfless as Gu Qianqian?
Chen Feng shook his head to dispel these thoughts.
Putting aside distractions,
he regained some strength and resumed his assault on the chains.
After an entire day’s effort, he finally broke all the iron chains.
Gu Qianqian said happily,
"Great! Master, you have to come with me quickly, or if someone comes back, you won’t be able to leave."
Chen Feng simply used a sonic wave to cut through the iron chains.
The shackles on his hands and feet, however, were still there.
Walking was a bit inconvenient now.
But there was no time to worry about that.
He had to escape at all costs.
He needed to get the false Dragon Vein’s information out.
To stop this pointless war from endlessly repeating itself.
Following Gu Qianqian, Chen Feng arrived outside what seemed to be a stone house.
Only then did he realize—it wasn’t a stone house at all.
It was a massive cave, carved out into numerous stone chambers.
Looking closely,
Chen Feng finally noticed that both the cave walls and the floor
were made of mutton-fat jade.
He had never paid attention before.
The floor of the chamber was too rough, and with such a vast space, he had never imagined it could be jade.
He had always assumed it was white granite or calcite or something similar.
Only when he stepped outside the stone house and saw the natural cave’s surface did he realize—
He was actually inside a huge block of mutton-fat jade.
Suddenly, a thought struck Chen Feng, and he asked the guide, Gu Qianqian,
“Could this be the legendary Jade Mountain?”
Though Gu Qianqian’s eyes were blind, she was clearly very familiar with the place.
As she led the way without pause, she replied,
“Yes, this is Jade Mountain.”
“Once you exit the cave, you’ll be at the Dragon Vein—the Jade Pool.”
Chen Feng was stunned.
He had always thought Jade Mountain was just the name of a mountain.
He never imagined it was literal—
A gigantic mountain made entirely of jade.
Following this young disciple, Chen Feng kept winding through the maze of caves.
He felt like he had been walking for over an hour.
Yet, he still hadn’t found the way out.
Only then did Chen Feng realize—
This was not just an ordinary cave.
It was a vast natural labyrinth.
After another hour of walking,
Chen Feng began to wonder if Gu Qianqian had gotten lost.
Finally, he saw a light ahead.
As soon as they stepped out of the cave,
Chen Feng was stunned by the scene before him.
Outside the cave was a valley.
He was standing hundreds of meters above on a cliff,
with a perfect vantage point overlooking the entire valley.
In the center of the valley
was a huge pond.
The shape of the pond was obviously special—
It was shaped like a Taiji Yin-Yang fish.
Though only half of it.
At the large end of the fish, there was a pitch-black spot.
From a distance, the entire pond emitted a faint white glow.
Many white cranes danced along the pond’s edge.
Without Gu Qianqian’s introduction,
Chen Feng immediately thought of one name—
The Jade Pool!
“Master, don’t be afraid. Just jump down from here,”
Gu Qianqian said.
“This is the fastest way to leave.”
Huh?
Chen Feng leaned his head over the cliff and looked down.
It made him dizzy and uneasy.
He wasn’t afraid of heights,
just a little wary.
He wanted to say,
“That’s a bit too fast for leaving.”
He was trying to leave Kunlun, not the mortal world.
Jumping from this height—
He’d probably be scared to death before even hitting the ground.
“Is there a slower way?”
Gu Qianqian nodded seriously.
“There is.”
“But the clan elders are all there.”
“They definitely won’t let you leave.”
“Master, are you afraid of heights?”
Uh—
Chen Feng felt awkward and said,
“Not exactly afraid.”
“Just feels a bit dangerous.”
Gu Qianqian covered her mouth and let out a mischievous laugh.
“Master, there’s no need to be afraid.”
“Below us is the Wind Cave of the Nine Orifices on Jade Mountain.”
“You won’t fall all the way to the ground.”
“I’ll hold onto you and jump together.”
Huh?
Chen Feng hadn’t yet figured out what the Nine Orifices of Jade Mountain or the Wind Cave were.
Before he could make sense of it, Gu Qianqian was already pulling him toward the edge of the towering cliff.
Instinctively, he resisted, his body instinctively shrinking backward.
Gu Qianqian comforted him gently:
“Master, don’t be afraid. You really won’t die from the fall.”
Chen Feng panicked and stammered,
“I’m not afraid. I really, truly am not.”
As they were pulled off the cliff,
Chen Feng’s left hand was firmly held by Gu Qianqian.
With his right hand, he clamped tightly over his own mouth.
Of course, he wasn’t just covering his mouth—he was trying to preserve his dignity as a teacher.
He felt brave.
His heart was pounding so hard he thought it might burst.
Not a single sound escaped his lips.
Though he gripped his mouth so tightly that he almost couldn’t breathe.
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
