The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 892: The Calamity Great Dao

"Brother Ling, are you finally done?"

At that moment, Li Bufan had been meditating outside the tent. He suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Ling Feng, a faint smile curling at the corner of his lips.

Ling Feng rubbed his nose with a wry smile and walked over.

"Since when did the 'Little Sword God' Li Bufan learn to joke around?"

He sat cross-legged beside Li Bufan, shaking his head.

"People change," Li Bufan said, raising an eyebrow. Since joining the East Court Sword Team, his personality had transformed. Where once there was only sword obsession, now there were comrades and bonds.

"So, any gains from the Ancient Tower Grove?" Ling Feng asked casually.

"Got lucky. Comprehended a Great Dao called the Sword Heart Great Dao."

"Sword Heart Great Dao?" Ling Feng blinked. "What's that?"

"My understanding isn't deep enough yet. With true mastery, a single thought could manifest a sword. Where the heart points, the blade follows."

Li Bufan smiled faintly. "A path centered on swords, it suits me."

"With your talent, I knew you'd comprehend a Great Dao." Ling Feng laughed. "Congratulations!"

"Nothing special." Li Bufan shook his head, studying Ling Feng. "You left the grove early. Why?"

"Wasn't as fortunate. Didn't comprehend any Great Dao. But that led me to other opportunities, I've broken through to the Transformation Realm."

Li Bufan's eyes widened slightly. "Peak Transformation Realm?!"

Ling Feng simply smiled.

"Our odds against the Royal Sword Team just improved," Li Bufan said after a pause, a hint of excitement showing.

"Couldn't do it without you all," Ling Feng said, eyes bright. "What about Qianxue and Yan'er? Any breakthroughs?"

"Why not ask them yourself?" Li Bufan teased.

Ling Feng shook his head. "They're resting."

Li Bufan raised an eyebrow. "Junior Sister Mu comprehended the Divine Fire Great Dao. As for Miss Tuoba... hers is more frightening, the Calamity Great Dao."

"Calamity Great Dao?" Ling Feng frowned. "What does it do?"

"From her explanation, it senses impending misfortune and brings calamity upon enemies."

"That's... terrifying!"

Ling Feng inhaled sharply. Offend Tuoba Yan, and you might choke on water.

"But Great Dao powers have strict limits. More like emergency safeguards." Li Bufan sounded slightly regretful.

"Such powerful abilities need restrictions. Otherwise their users would be invincible."

Ling Feng chuckled. While his friends had gained Great Daos, he'd felt his Chaotic Seed merge with mysterious energies during his breakthrough. Something had changed, he just couldn't understand it yet.

Their conversation turned to Wuji Cave Heaven. As for the Lord of the Void, Kaezik, Ling Feng skipped over that part and instead went into detail about the Lingxu Spring and the geniuses of the Demon Race.

"So the border attacks were just distractions." Li Bufan finally understood.

"But their plan failed." Ling Feng took out the leftover spring water from his storage spirit ring. "Take this. It'll help with spiritual consciousness technique when you reach the Spiritual Element Realm."

After hesitating, Li Bufan accepted it. "Thanks."

"Don't mention it. Oh, and... maybe don't drink it directly." Ling Feng scratched his nose awkwardly.

Technically, this was his bathwater...

"Understood."

Li Bufan nodded gratefully, completely unaware.

...

Three days later

With demon forces retreating, Qingtian Fortress returned to the usual calmness.

Yue Yunlan's second brother Yue Tengfeng returned with his guards, injured but still alive.

With Tuoba Yan stabilized, Ling Feng prepared to depart.

Commander Han Li, buried in work, made time to see him off.

"General Ling, we owe you for stopping the demons!"

"You flatter me, Commander-in-Chief. It was mostly luck. About General Cao... my condolences."

"This whole mess is partly my fault too. If I'd trusted your judgment and sent a Human Emperor to back you up, things wouldn't have turned out like this," Han Li said with a sigh. "Either way, you've done a great job this time, General Ling. Once you graduate from Tianwei Academy, the Northwestern Army will always welcome you!" frёewebnoѵēl.com

He clasped Ling Feng's shoulder firmly, presenting elemental stones and crystals. The entire garrison saluted as Ling Feng's group departed.

Only when they'd vanished did Han Li return, sighing again.

Advisor Jia Wenhe approached. "Commander-in-Chief, if you value him, why not insist he stay? That Royal Sword Team match could be canceled with a word."

Han Li shook his head. "That young man's ambitions stretch far. Even our fortress is but a pond to him. True dragons won't be caged."

"Uh..." Jia Wenhe's eyelid twitched. "Commander-in-chief, what do you mean?"

Han Li exhaled heavily. "The sacred lands."

"Hiss..."

Inside the large tent, all the generals couldn't help but gasp in shock. The sacred land was the true stage for martial arts geniuses!
