Chapter 450

Su Hao collected his thoughts, and the golden armor under his feet surged again, constructing another formation—the Extinguisher.

As spiritual power was inputted, activating the Extinguisher, another layer of Fragile Defense was generated.

As the blue defensive film rose, faint glows radiated outward.

Su Hao raised his finger again.

Heart-Piercing Drill!

A golden light shot out and hit the Fragile Defense, emitting a crisp sound.

“Ding!”

Looking at the blue defensive film, it remained intact!

Su Hao smiled faintly, “It seems the Extinguisher is effective! Let’s try the Bone Corrosion Soul Snatcher and the Spirit Dissipation Technique.”

As expected, the spirit-annihilating techniques were reduced to ordinary attacks in front of the Extinguisher! Their powerful erosion effects became ineffective when faced with the Extinguisher!

After completing this research, Su Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He exited the Child of Fate state and immediately arranged the next step of the task: “First, miniaturize the Extinguisher formation, design corresponding runic arrays for the Child of Fate armor, the current range is fifty meters, the intensity is too low, find a way to increase the radiation range to one hundred meters!

Then, make a few portable protective artifacts for Master and others for self-defense.

After completing this task, continue to help Yashan and Feng Cheng design breakthrough techniques to reach the Foundation Establishment realm!”

There were many things to do, and they needed to be tackled one by one.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Su Hao successfully integrated the Extinguisher formation into the Fragile Defense, and the radiation range greatly increased to two hundred meters away. From then on, Su Hao had another layer of protection.

“An Unity cultivator, after losing the deterrent power of spirit-annihilating techniques, becomes nothing more than a large-scale Nascent Soul cultivator!”

Su Hao felt very relaxed in his heart. Until now, there should be nothing in this cultivation world that could threaten him!

This also meant that he could sit down and have a good chat with the Unity cultivators!

This was very important. If he wanted to learn more knowledge, he needed to communicate well with the authorities in this world!

“Next, it’s the Extinguisher artifacts for Master and the others. They should be convenient to use, so let’s make them into bracelets! They have a large enough volume and are easy to carry…”

Another month passed, Su Hao not only made all four artifacts but also tidied up exclusive Foundation Establishment techniques for Yashan and Feng Cheng!

Just then, a distant bell rang, spreading far and wide, penetrating Su Hao’s experimental base, and clearly entering his ears.

“Dang!”

“Dang!”

……

After nine consecutive bell tolls, Su Hao’s spiritual sense immediately perceived that everyone in the immortal sect was restless, as if something big had happened!

Su Hao had never heard of such a situation before and was also puzzled.

At this time, a message came from Yashan: “Boss Wei, do you know what happened with the nine bell tolls?”

Su Hao replied, “I don’t know. Let me go out and investigate the situation first.”

Su Hao got up, pushed open the door, locked onto the position of Feng Ling, and then used his spell to fly into the sky towards Feng Ling’s direction. Just before the Disciple Records.

No matter what happened in the immortal sect, as long as he went to the Disciple Records to inquire, he could find out what happened. It had always been like this.

Soon, Su Hao saw Feng Ling standing in front of the Disciple Records, looking around eagerly.

After approaching, Feng Ling immediately turned her head to look at Su Hao and waved excitedly, “Feng Wei, over here!”

Not only did Feng Ling look at Su Hao, but most of the cultivators above the Nascent Soul realm also subconsciously looked at Su Hao. In their perception, a Nascent Soul realm cultivator had arrived.

Which ‘Nascent Soul elder’ had come, inquiring a bit, and the Nascent Soul elder must know what had happened.

Then everyone turned their heads and saw a young man with overly short hair, smiling and walking slowly.

His strange hairstyle couldn’t hide the unique temperament on him. Coupled with his handsome face and powerful Nascent Soul aura, the word “presence” immediately popped into the minds of those knowledgeable.

Yes, in the eyes of these cultivators in the Nascent Soul realm, Su Hao was like a walking aura emitter.

“Which senior Nascent Soul is this? Why don’t I have any impression? The female disciple just called him Feng Wei, but what kind of elder Nascent Soul is Feng Wei?”

After searching their minds for a while, everyone couldn’t find any Nascent Soul elders in their sects who matched up with this young cultivator.

They had prepared a bunch of fancy greetings to say, but now they were stuck in their throats, unsure of what to say.

Should they greet him as if they were familiar? Should they say, “Hey, elder Nascent Soul~” “Hey, elder big shot~” “Hey, Elder Feng!”?

Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if they got it wrong?

At this moment, Feng Ling came to Su Hao’s side and said joyfully, “Feng Wei, long time no see! You never come out. Several times, I wanted to find you but couldn’t!”

Su Hao said, “Cultivation, you know! Does Master know what happened?”

As expected, Feng Ling didn’t know, and shook her head in confusion, “I don’t know either. This is the first time I’ve heard the bell toll in over thirty years since I joined the sect!”

Su Hao looked at Feng Ling in surprise, “Ah? I didn’t realize Master was already in her forties!”

Feng Ling accidentally revealed a secret and froze in place, unable to forgive herself.

Su Hao continued, “Master, why haven’t you broken through to the Golden Core realm after so long? Have you encountered any difficulties?”

Feng Ling’s heart took a heavy blow!

At this moment, Yashan came over with Feng Cheng and Feng Yuer, while Yun Qingping went to find his Master.

Yashan greeted, “Elder Feng Wei!”

Many people couldn’t help but look at Feng Yuer, as he appealed to both men and women.

Just then, a Golden Core cultivator stepped forward, clasped his hands in salute to Su Hao, and respectfully said, “You must be Elder Feng Wei. I am Feng Yong, and I have seen Elder Feng Wei. May I ask, what has happened in the sect?”

Feng Ling, Feng Cheng, and Feng Yuer were all puzzled: “???”

Elder Feng Wei? What’s going on? Since when did Feng Wei become an Elder? How come they didn’t know!

Su Hao shook his head and said, “I don’t know either!”

Feng Yong looked surprised, “Even Elder Feng Wei doesn’t know?”

Su Hao said, “Indeed, I don’t know. Also, I am just a disciple, not an Elder!”

Confusion filled Feng Yong’s eyes. However, even more perplexed was Feng Ling: “Senior Feng Yong, since when did Feng Wei become an Elder? I didn’t hear about it. Isn’t it only when one reaches the Nascent Soul realm that they qualify to become an Elder?”

Feng Yong was astonished, “But Elder Feng Wei is indeed a Nascent Soul cultivator! Then…”

Feng Ling said, “Senior Feng Yong, Feng Wei is my disciple!”

“Huh?” Feng Yong was stunned!

His mind felt momentarily confused.

At this moment, Su Hao spoke up, “It’s true that I’ve reached the Nascent Soul realm, but I’m still not an Elder! I happened to have just broken through recently, so it’s nothing surprising.”

Feng Ling, Feng Cheng, and Feng Yuer were all stunned simultaneously.

The surrounding area quickly fell silent, and all those who heard Su Hao’s voice stared blankly at him.

The attention shifted from Feng Yuer to Su Hao.

What did that Nascent Soul Elder just say? He said he had just broken through to the Nascent Soul realm!

Looking at that overly youthful face, still retaining some childishness, he could only be around twenty years old, right?

Is he really young or pretending to be young? These Golden Core cultivators, who had lived for countless years, could still tell the difference. This guy is really young!

Moreover, just now Feng Ling said that this Nascent Soul… elder named Feng Wei is her disciple!

Is it fake!

They all recognized Feng Ling. Although not familiar, they would see each other every three years or so. They knew Feng Ling’s generation was very low, and now she’s only at the Foundation Establishment realm!

How could someone, within such a short time, teach a Nascent Soul cultivator?

At this moment, Feng Ling reacted and stared at Su Hao blankly, uncertainly asking, “Feng Wei, did you just say you broke through to the Nascent Soul realm?”

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Feng Ling hadn’t cultivated her spiritual awareness, so she couldn’t perceive Su Hao’s level of spiritual power. Hearing that Su Hao had become a Nascent Soul cultivator, her mind was still having trouble wrapping around the idea.

It’s like a childhood friend who suddenly returns after being away for two years, only to become a top scientific genius and superstar. Could you believe it?

    Chapter 450

    Su Hao gathered his thoughts as golden Diamond Armor flowed beneath his feet once more, rapidly constructing another rune array.

    This time...

    the Extinguisher.

    As spiritual power poured into it, the formation activated.

    At the same time, another layer of Fragile Defense rose around him.

    A thin blue barrier enveloped his body while faint, almost imperceptible ripples spread continuously outward.

    Su Hao calmly raised a finger.

    Life-Ending Heart-Piercing Drill!

    A golden beam shot forward and struck the defensive barrier.

    Ding!

    A crisp metallic sound echoed through the laboratory.

    Su Hao looked at the blue barrier.

    It remained completely intact.

    A faint smile appeared on his face.

    "So the Extinguisher works."

    "Now..."

    "Let's test the Bone-Corrosion Soul Devouring Technique and the Soul-Splitting Finger."

    As expected, both Soul Annihilation techniques lost their terrifying corrosive properties the moment they entered the Extinguisher's field.

    Their spiritual power destabilized in advance, becoming nothing more than ordinary offensive techniques.

    The dreaded annihilation effect...

    had vanished entirely.

    Only then did Su Hao finally let out a long breath.

    He withdrew from his Life Bearer form and quietly arranged his next research objectives.

    "First, miniaturize the Extinguisher."

    "It needs to be integrated directly into the Life Bearer armor."

    "The current effective range is only fifty meters. That's too small."

    "I'll increase it to at least two hundred meters."

    "After that..."

    "I'll make several portable defensive artifacts for Master and the others."

    "And finally..."

    "I'll complete customized Foundation Establishment methods for Yashan and Feng Cheng."

    There was no shortage of work.

    One task after another.

    One problem after another.

    As always.


    ---

    Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

    The Extinguisher had now been completely integrated into the Fragile Defense formation.

    Its effective range had expanded dramatically, reaching nearly two hundred meters.

    From this day onward, Su Hao possessed yet another layer of protection.

    Without the threat of Soul Annihilation techniques...

    a Unity cultivator was merely an oversized Nascent Soul cultivator in his eyes.

    He felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

    At present, nothing in the cultivation world seemed capable of threatening him.

    Which also meant...

    he could finally sit down and have a proper conversation with the Unity cultivators.

    That was far more important than defeating them.

    Knowledge was obtained through communication.

    Violence was only reserved for those unwilling to communicate.


    ---

    "The next step..."

    "Bracelets."

    Su Hao thought quietly.

    "They're large enough to house the formation, convenient to wear, and suitable for Master and the others."

    Another month passed.

    Not only had Su Hao completed all four defensive bracelets, he had also organized exclusive Foundation Establishment techniques for both Yashan and Feng Cheng.

    Just then—

    A distant bell rang throughout Moonwatch Valley.

    Dong—

    Dong—

    ...

    Nine solemn bell chimes echoed across every mountain peak.

    The sound pierced through Su Hao's experimental base and clearly reached his ears.

    The moment the ninth bell faded...

    his Spiritual Sense immediately detected movement throughout the entire sect.

    Every cultivator had been alarmed.

    Something major had clearly happened.

    Su Hao frowned.

    He had never heard the sect sound the bell like this before.

    At that moment, a message from Yashan arrived.

    > Boss Wei, do you know what the nine bell chimes mean?



    Su Hao replied,

    > No. I'll go investigate first.




    ---

    He stood up, pushed open the laboratory door, and locked onto Feng Ling's location with his Spiritual Sense.

    Then he rose into the sky using the Wind Escape Technique, flying toward the Disciple Hall.

    Whenever something significant occurred within the sect...

    the Disciple Hall was always the quickest place to learn the details.

    That had always been the case.


    ---

    Before long, Su Hao spotted Feng Ling waiting anxiously outside the hall.

    The moment she saw him, she immediately waved.

    "Feng Wei! Over here!"

    Her voice naturally drew the attention of many nearby cultivators.

    Almost every Nascent Soul cultivator present instinctively turned toward Su Hao.

    Their Spiritual Sense had already informed them that another Nascent Soul cultivator was approaching.

    They assumed it must be some senior elder.

    Yet when they finally saw him...

    everyone was stunned.

    A young man with unusually short hair walked over with a relaxed smile.

    His hairstyle looked rather strange by the standards of the cultivation world.

    Yet that couldn't conceal the extraordinary aura surrounding him.

    Combined with his handsome features and unmistakable Nascent Soul aura...

    only one thought appeared in everyone's mind.

    Presence.

    He looked like someone who naturally stood above the crowd.


    ---

    "Which Nascent Soul Elder is this?"

    "Why have I never seen him before?"

    "That disciple just called him Feng Wei..."

    "Which elder is Feng Wei?"

    Everyone searched their memories.

    None of the sects had a Nascent Soul elder matching this appearance.

    They had originally prepared polite greetings.

    Now...

    they didn't know what to say.

    If they addressed him incorrectly...

    it would only embarrass themselves.


    ---

    Meanwhile, Feng Ling happily walked over.

    "Feng Wei, it's been so long!"

    "You've been hiding in cultivation all this time."

    "I tried visiting you several times, but you never came out."

    Su Hao smiled.

    "I've been cultivating."

    "You know how it is."

    "Master, do you know what happened?"

    Feng Ling immediately shook her head.

    "I have no idea."

    "This is the first time I've heard the Nine Bell Summons since joining Moonwatch Valley over thirty years ago."

    Su Hao looked at her in surprise.

    "So Master is already over forty?"

    Feng Ling instantly froze.

    She had accidentally revealed her age.

    Seeing her embarrassed expression, Su Hao simply continued,

    "Master, why haven't you broken through to the Golden Core Realm yet?"

    "Did you encounter some difficulties?"

    The question landed like another heavy blow.

    Feng Ling felt like crying.


    ---

    Just then, Yashan arrived together with Feng Cheng and Feng Yuer.

    Yun Qingping had already gone to find his own master.

    Yashan respectfully bowed.

    "Elder Feng Wei."

    Nearby cultivators once again shifted their attention toward Su Hao.

    Meanwhile, many younger disciples couldn't help stealing glances at Feng Yuer.

    Her appearance attracted attention wherever she went.


    ---

    At that moment, a Golden Core cultivator stepped forward.

    He respectfully cupped his fists.

    "Elder Feng Wei."

    "I am Feng Yong."

    "May I ask..."

    "Does Elder know what has happened?"

    Feng Ling blinked.

    "...?"

    Feng Cheng blinked.

    "...?"

    Feng Yuer blinked.

    "...?"

    Elder Feng Wei?

    Since when had Feng Wei become an elder?

    Why hadn't any of them heard about this?


    ---

    Su Hao simply shook his head.

    "I don't know either."

    Feng Yong looked surprised.

    "Even Elder Feng Wei doesn't know?"

    "I really don't."

    Su Hao smiled.

    "And I'm still just a disciple."

    "Not an elder."

    Feng Yong became even more confused.

    Feng Ling couldn't help asking,

    "Senior Feng Yong..."

    "Since when did Feng Wei become an elder?"

    "I never heard anything about it."

    "Isn't one only qualified after reaching the Nascent Soul Realm?"

    Feng Yong looked at her in astonishment.

    "But..."

    "Elder Feng Wei is clearly a Nascent Soul cultivator."

    Feng Ling immediately replied,

    "Senior Feng Yong..."

    "Feng Wei is my disciple."

    "..."

    Feng Yong stood there completely dumbfounded.

    His mind simply stopped working.


    ---

    At that moment, Su Hao calmly explained,

    "It's true that I've reached the Nascent Soul Realm."

    "But I haven't officially become an elder yet."

    "I only broke through recently."

    "So there's nothing particularly surprising about it."

    Silence.

    Absolute silence.

    Everyone who heard those words stared blankly at him.

    Their attention instantly shifted away from Feng Yuer.

    Every gaze landed on Su Hao.

    Did they hear that correctly?

    He had just broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm?

    Looking at that youthful face...

    there was still a trace of boyishness.

    He looked barely twenty years old.

    Cultivators who had lived for centuries could naturally distinguish between youthful appearance and genuine youth.

    This young man...

    was truly that young.

    And just moments ago...

    Feng Ling had said that this Nascent Soul cultivator...

    was her disciple.

    Was that even possible?


    ---

    Feng Ling finally came back to her senses.

    She stared at Su Hao blankly before asking in an uncertain voice,

    "Feng Wei..."

    "Did you just say..."

    "you've broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

    As only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, she had yet to develop Spiritual Sense.

    She couldn't perceive the quality of Su Hao's spiritual power.

    Even after hearing him say it himself...

    her mind still struggled to accept it.

    It felt like a childhood friend leaving home for only two years...

    only to return as the world's greatest scientist.

    Probably joke is around a word boss and elder.
    老板(laoban) is a boss
    老 (lao) is an elder.
    So yashan said boss Wei, but shortened it to elder Wei. And others assumed he is a sect elder.
    Translation is not the best tbh.
