"Perhaps, later on, I can inquire more about the Ghost Sea in the two Secret Realm worlds."
"The Holy City might have records in this regard, and the Mermaid Clan might also have similar texts left behind."
In the Quiet Room, flickers of phosphorus fire glowed in Chen Feng’s eye sockets, prompting numerous speculations to arise.
Although the Heart of Life did not grant him the abilities of Admiral Evil Prison, transforming into the other party still made him feel slightly different, possessing a peculiar otherness from ordinary humans.
Moreover, within his flesh, there was a replication of a chill that lingered, almost identical to the aura of the banishment method once used by the High Priest of the Black Blade Tribe in the Snake Spirit Secret Realm.
After pondering for a long while, he eventually suppressed his conjectures about the Ghost Sea.
He again sensed his own body, adapting to every bit of power that the Heart of Life brought.
He discovered that the stored Life Essence did not have an upper limit.
This talent was directly correlated to his life strength; the stronger he became, the more Life Essence he could absorb.
Currently, he should still be able to absorb all of another Saint’s essence.
"However, I am not sure if the Black Tide Creatures in Qinggang City can be killed and devoured."
With this thought in his mind, Chen Feng eventually dispelled the appearance of Admiral Evil Prison, ceasing the continuous consumption of Life Essence.
Once he was adequately adapted, he tidied up for a moment.
He took out his phone, planning to inquire about the latest situation in the Yun Meng Forest.
His action paused, Chen Feng turned his head to look out the window.
A flying device suddenly descended, heading straight for the Martial Arts Hall.
As the airwaves whipped up, a few specks of dust fluttered over the even square tiles.
He discerned the newcomer at a glance through perception, feeling somewhat surprised.
In the guest room, a man dressed in military uniform common service appeared, wearing a warm smile.
He seemed to be in his thirties, with a square face, exuding an aura of integrity, and surprisingly, it was Han Chao who had just returned from abroad.
Accompanied by none other than General Zhang himself.
"General Zhang, Captain Han."
Chen Feng nodded and smiled, gesturing for the two to sit at the tea table in front.
During this, he glanced and noticed a new star on Han Chao’s shoulder insignia.
"It seems we should congratulate Captain Han then."
"Haha, Master Chen is too polite. To be honest, this promotion is all thanks to you."
Han Chao waved his hand, smiling, explaining how it was due to the martial arts exchange event that took place in the past with Suluo.
Subduing the Martial Arts World of a nation, those above were very pleased.
So not long after, he was promoted by one level, already nearing the level of General Zhang.
After chatting for a while, Chen Feng didn’t rush to ask the reason for their visit. Instead, he inquired about the situation in Suo Jia City.
This was where the Black Tide first descended on Earth Star’s reality, and he was curious about the reactions from various countries.
"Most countries are paying attention and are on alert, setting up temporary special operations alliance groups stationed in Suo Jia City."
"Even though the Secret Realm node there has vanished, many still worry that it might reappear in Suo Jia City."
Han Chao put down his teacup and explained seriously, "Moreover, under our leadership, the Evil God Churches across various areas have started being hunted down and eliminated, just in case."
"However, there are still a few regions in conflict that have long been corrupted by the Church and refuse to comply..."
With this explanation, Chen Feng became contemplative.
He suspected that the appearance of Snake Spirit and Church of the Dead members in Luo River and the Nanjiang Suburb was due to this reason.
The living soil of Suluo was progressively uprooted, naturally driving them to move their base and hide among the populace.
"Actually, the reason we came to see Master Chen today is due to an impolite request."
Han Chao and General Zhang exchanged a glance, finally revealing the purpose of their visit.
"Master Chen should have received an invitation to the World Martial Arts Competition, right?"
He asked in a low voice, and Chen Feng nodded without hiding it.
"As expected of Master Chen. According to what I know, there are less than five people in the entire Chi Country who received an invitation."
"Five people?" Chen Feng asked, puzzled.
"Yes, besides Master Chen, there are Leader Liu Duanyun of Liu Kuisou, and former leader of the Holy Sect, Mr. Zhang Henggu, Mr. Zhang."
"And then, two other Martial Arts experts suspected to be in the Fake Extreme Realm, who have been reclusive for years. We aren’t sure of their exact locations."
Han Chao explained truthfully, and only then did Chen Feng feel some of his doubts dissipate.
Chi Country is vast, not lacking in martial arts experts who have been famous for years and then went into seclusion.
However, he was somewhat curious as to why Yang Wudi wasn’t invited?
"Last time in Nido, Yang Wudi caused quite a stir and had a rather contentious relationship with the Lion King of the Nido Royal Family."
"The latter is one of the Twelve Main Positions of the Star Palace, naturally, he was not invited again."
After another explanation, Chen Feng nodded, then inquired about the request.
"This issue is related to the Star Palace."
"One of the Twelve Main Positions of the Star Palace, Gun King Grelie of the Platinum Federation, once injured many of our military personnel."
"We’ve received reliable information that he is likely to appear at the World Martial Arts Competition in Nido."
With a solemn tone, Han Chao earnestly requested, "Therefore, we wish to ask Master Chen to join forces with the Holy Sect to assist us in capturing this person."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng was silent for a moment.
As if noticing his hesitation, General Zhang promptly spoke, "I heard Master Chen and the Divine Martial Alliance Leader have some conflicts, this person has been involved in many crimes over the years, we also wish to capture him as well."
"Moreover, based on certain intelligence, it seems this person has recently been in contact with Gun King Grelie, possibly in Nido too."
This was one of the terms of the deal, yet Chen Feng didn’t rush to agree, instead asking why they didn’t send Transformed People themselves?
After all, the military had considerable resources, and Transformed People of the Sixth Order Flying General, or even higher, were not unattainable.
