The Favored Son of Heaven

Chapter 466 - Furinkazan



Chapter 466: Furinkazan

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

A secluded hill, a scenic, and starry sky, and the company of a beauty.

Such a romantic situation was most suitable for young couples to snuggle up and enjoy the sweet moments of love.

As such, Qin Fen was dejected by the sudden appearance of four martial dao masters before him. It would have been better if they had appeared some other time. They might have sparred and exchanged pointers, promoting the progress of each other’s martial arts.

But today!? Qin Fen could not help but feel that the appearance of the four martial dao masters as nothing but a killjoy. But he was unable to refute. Apart from exchanging pointers, they were here on for another reason as well, and that was to measure the strength of Song Jia’s husband-to-be.

One way or another, these four martial dao masters were Song Jia’s elders. So, as Song Jia’s husband-to-be, he still had to maintain a necessary decorum. Not to mention, these four didn’t seem to have the slightest bit of malicious intentions. They had heard some that a youngster, a martial dao master, had gained temporary approval of Qilin. So they had wanted to check whether this rumored figure was really as fierce as he was in the rumors.

Qin Fen, as a martial dao master of the same level, could understand what was going in their mind clearly.

But being able to understand didn’t mean he agreed completely with them. Qin Fen sighed, again and again, as he said in his heart, “I understand where you are coming from but you have to consider my situation as well. It would be have been better if you came tomorrow. It’s a bit too rash to appear and disturb someone’s sweet time with his lover.”

“Greetings seniors.” Qin Fen cupped his feet before his chest lightly and said, “Please!”

The four martial dao masters were completely perplexed. They exchanged glances with each other, confused. They were confused about who should accept Qin Fen’s invitation to spar first. Why can’t this young man speak clearly?

“Kid, are you stupid or something?” Chi Lei clenched his fists abruptly and said, as red true energy flared out from the gaps between his fingers, shaking the air around his fist, “There are four of us, you have to make it clear who you want to spar with first. Otherwise, wouldn’t the decision of who is going to spar with you first be a cause for a fight among ourselves?”

“That’s right!” Yao Guang’s voice was a bit colder. “Make it clear who is going to go first!”

Qin Fen shook his head, smiling wryly. He could not help but blame himself for not making it clear just now. He meant to fight them together but the four of them had obviously misunderstood his words.

Situ Nan nodded his agreement but didn’t voice his thoughts out. A fight with martial dao masters of the same star-class could only be fair when both sides were at their peak. The second one to fight with Qin Fen would be fighting an exhausted Qin Fen who had expended a part of his true energy and physical strength; which was not only unfair but also makes the spar with an exhausted Qin Fen boring and meaningless at the same time. At that time, gaining victory would likely be very easy.

Qin Fen stopped Song Jia with his arm and motioned her to step back as he replied, a little apologetically, “Seniors, you might have misunderstood me. I mean, in order to save time and for us to exchange pointers better, it would be better for all of you to fight together!”

The mountainside sunk into deathly silence, only the slight whistles of cool breezes blowing over the lush mountain remained.

The faces of the four martial dao master grew as stiff as a rock. None of them had ever heard such a crazy thing ever since they started walking on the path of martial artists! A duel between the same-class martial dao master had almost always been a one-on-one battle. Any martial artist who could achieve Nirvana Marrow Transformation wasn’t a vegetarian; it could be said that they all have a deep understanding of martial arts. In the same star-class, their strengths, as well as their understanding of martial dao, were almost the same. It was very difficult to say who would win and who would lose.

The four martial dao masters had also heard a bit about Qin Fen’s battle of Hallasan. From what they had heard, they could infer that although Qin Fen was pretty strong, he was like an arrow at the end of its flight when he fought the second battle with Kyokushin Kouten; it could even be said that the lamp had run out of oil.

Chi Lei’s pair of flaming red eyebrows twisted together like a pair of fire dragons. Having become so strong at his young age is indeed outstanding, but if he believes that he can take four of the same star-class, it really is wild talk!

The silent Situ Nan’s face turned ghastly pale. One versus four!? This young man has gone crazy! Very few people dared to fight a one-on-two battle with martial dao masters of the same class, even a one-on-three had never been heard of. As for one-on-four, any martial dao master would break into laughter if he heard it.

Yao Guang looked very displeased but as she turned his gaze at Song Jia, a gentle look appeared on her face. Gradually, she parted her tightly closed lips and said to Qin Fen, “One vs four!? Young man, maybe you don’t have a clear idea of what that means? You would surely lose if you fought a one-on-four battle with the martial dao masters of the same class under normal conditions, let alone against the four of us!”

Lian Wuguang raised his head proudly and clutched the Iron Floating Pagoda even harder as he snorted cold air repeatedly, indicating his dissatisfaction.

Qin Fen nodded lightly but still maintained an expression that he ought to. Nonetheless, a bit of a smile appeared on his lips, “Seniors, you should have a set of combo formation, right? Senior Chi seems to be surrounded by fire, even his battle intent gives a boiling hot sensation. And Senior Situ with his long pole walks as swiftly as the wind. Senior Yao has a calmness of a forest in her every movement, and as for Senior Lian, his broad and robust body, with a heavy weapon like the Iron Floating Pagoda in his hand, gives the feeling of being as steady as a mountain whenever he fights. Your combination is just like the Furinkazan.”

The three men and one woman couldn’t hide the shock in their eyes. Figuring out the characteristics of each person might not be difficult but only a very few people would even consider the possibility of a combo, let alone figure out the actual formation.

In today’s era of martial arts, almost all martial artists prefer to break through their own limits; they strive to develop in everything regarding themselves. However, there were many people who would consider other ways, such as combining different kinds of martial arts and forming a completely new way of fighting.

Chi Lei waved his tightly clenched fist before his chest proudly. “Qilin once said that after we four have launched the Furinkazan formation, even sixteen-star martial artists would have no chance of winning.”

Although the other two didn’t speak, they could not hide the immense self-confidence in their eyes. In fact, when an enemy was facing against the Furinkazan formation, he wasn’t just facing the four people, it could be said that he was facing the person behind these four, the Qilin himself!

This set of formation had been modified and improved by the Qilin, a divine beast martial artist, using his vast martial dao abilities! In this four-man formation, apart from the four heavenly kings under Qilin who were equivalent to the constellation warriors under divine beast martial artists of other planets, Situ Nan didn’t believe there was any other four-man combo formation that could outperform theirs.

Qin Fen cupped his fist and pushed it forward gently. “I understand, but I will still request that all four seniors spar.”

Chi Lei’s red face turned ghastly pale — there was no need to mention how ugly the faces of the other three turned. Putting aside the team formation, which of the martial technique practiced by the four people alone isn’t on secret art level? Just the occasional spar with the same-star class martial dao master in day to day life became more about winning than losing.

And now, they had been patiently explaining the might of a combo for such a long while, even bringing out the divine beast, Qilin, Song Wendong in the end. Who would have that this young man before them would still choose to have a one-on-four fight?

Such a reply sounded sincere and plain, devoid of even the slightest bit of arrogance, yet the meaning behind his words was filled with extreme arrogance.

In this world, everyone’s understanding of martial dao was different. Bae Seong-Joon, Kyokushin Genichi, and other people chose to found a sect and become a generation sect-holder after entering the fifteen-star level and becoming a martial dao master.

But there were some martial dao masters who believed that just by becoming a martial dao master of the fifteen-star level didn’t mean that they had the qualifications to found a sect and become a sect-holder and enjoy the wealth of the world.

Nevertheless, there were some martial dao masters who weren’t eager to come to terms with it, they still had the will to pursue higher martial arts! This was the case of Chi Lei and the rest, their goal was to become a constellation warrior!

In this world, while some people’s goal was to become a divine beast martial artist, there were some whose goal was to become a constellation warrior. The constellation warriors under every divine beast weren’t eternal and unchanging. Theoretically, when someone surpassed a constellation warrior and was willing to live under a divine beast martial artist temporarily, then he could replace the previous constellation warrior.

All the people who were determined to be a constellation warrior were very proud at heart. Such a goal was a kind of highest glory for countless martial artists.

And today, these four martial artists, whose target was to be a constellation warrior, was told by such a young guy who had stepped into the ranks of martial dao masters not too long ago that he wanted to have a one-on-four fight with them!

If not for the sake of Song Jia, someone from them might have already jumped out to say to Qin Fen, You insulted us like this. Why don’t we change it to a life and death battle from a spar to wash away your ravings and the insult to us four martial dao masters?

The atmosphere around them turned solemn all of a sudden. Qin Fen, looking at their ugly faces, shook his head lightly as he raised his left palm slowly. The strength of the infused true aura congealed around his entire body in the blink of an eye as the strength of the sixteen-star level radiated from his entire body at once. The grasses within a radius of a couple of hundred meters around his feet prostrated on the ground as if they were worshipping their king.

Suddenly, a tyrannical energy field spread around Qin Fen, pressing all the grass around him to the ground. Qin Fen’s martial attire flapped and made drumming like sounds as if a huge drier was blowing at him from all sides, causing his clothes to vibrate non-stop.

“Seniors, I’m really sorry.” A slight apologetic look appeared in Qin Fen’s eyes. “Not too long ago before you came, I accidentally broke through from the initial fifteen-star level. Now I am already a sixteen-star martial artist.”

Immediately, the already quiet hillside got quieter.

The ghastly faces of the four martial dao masters turned ashen, then ghastly pale in the blink of an eye.

Sixteen-star! All these years, we have been working hard to break through our star-class and the realm of the sixteen-star level, yet we haven’t ever been able to enter this stronger star-class.

And this young man before him was someone who rumored to have entered the fifteen-star level just a short while before the recent battle of Hallasan, where he fought Bae Seong-Joon and Kyokushin Kouten!

Why!? In the blink of an eye, he is a sixteen-star martial artist!? Why is his speed of advancing through the star-classes so fast? The three men and one woman looked at each other. No wonder he’s so arrogant that he asked us to fight together. After playing around for a long while, this young man gave the good news of his advancement!

Heart-broken, the four fifteen-star martial dao masters were completely heart-broken as if all the bitterest goldthread in the world had been stuffed into their mouths in a flash. No one was more confident than themselves in this world. As a result, when someone told them, “I am extremely sorry, but I have just advanced to next star-class,” they found it even more disheartening.

“Ah! I guess you are right!” Situ Nan’s long sigh was filled with helplessness as he shook his head. “Since you have already advanced through your star-class, we old bones really have no chance of winning in a one-on-one situation.”

The other three nodded their agreement, one after another. Under normal conditions, throwing aside the element of the biochemical beasts and various drugs, there was no need for a sixteen-star martial artist to fight with a fifteen-star martial artist to know the result.

“Since that’s the case…” The long and flexible stick held in Situ Nan’s hand from one hand trembled slightly. “We four old bones need to use the Furinkazan formation to teach a young and new martial artist like you.”

Song Jia backed up a few hundred meters again. Having seen the scene of Qin Fen with the strength of the fifteen-star level fight with Qilin, she knew how terrifying the fights between the martial artists who had entered the ranks of martial dao masters were.

The four martial dao masters spread out a bit; they did not surround him to attack like the usual tactics of group warfare employed by ordinary people.

The distance between the four martial dao masters was very small. It could be said that they were still very much together. Only, there was a slight change in their arrangement. Lian Wuguan with his Iron Floating Pagoda was standing at the last position of the four. His heavy body equipped with that heavy weapon gave the impression that he could collapse the sky and the earth itself, an immovable existence like towering mountains and flowing rivers.

Yao Guang, on the other hand, stood calmly before Lian Wuguang. Her quiet aura made her non-existent, making it easy for her to be ignored by others.

Situ Nan and Chu Lei stood at the forefront side by side, one left and one right. The metallic long pole was swaying with crackling electricity while intermittent sparks of red true energy were erupting from the red palm knife, bringing about a scorching smell in the air.

Four people, four kinds of battle intent! Nevertheless, there was an inexplicable kind of harmony around them, entangling them with each other. Qin Fen felt that he wasn’t facing four people, but rather a mixture of all kinds of forces with an extremely coordinated and strong battle intent.

Qin Fen nodded lightly. Although the fusion of the four battle intent wasn’t natural, it was really rare and indigenous. The fact that they could create this kind of tactical combo was proof in and of itself of their solid martial arts foundation.

Feeling their surging battle intent, Qin Fen squatted down as he put his one arm in front and pulled the other towards the back, like he was drawing a bow. The blue veins hidden under his skin made a non-stop pulsated cracking noise. His skin and muscles began to whiten, bit by bit, changing to the state of ice-type jade gradually. His sixteen-star strength reverted back to fifteen-star in the blink of an eye.

Fifteen-star!?

The four martial dao masters, surging with battle intent, were all startled; their eyes flickering with confusion.
