Feng Shen

## [source]

**Feng Shen** is a Fey martial artist that was first among the Heavenly Demon Seven Stars in Polaris Skysplit Tower. He was a seeded disciple of a Holy Land.

Later, he goes on an adventure with Lin Ming, Duanmu Qun, and Lan Xin into the Central Region of the Sky Spill Continent.

## Description

This person carried a longsword across their shoulder and wore a loose pale-blue robe. His long hair hung down to his waist, and his hands were crossed behind his back.

From seeing this proud and aloof figure, Lin Ming could see that their heights were similar. He didn’t know why, but this person gave off a strange feeling, as if he were staring at an unreachable mountain peak.

His eyes did not contain any haughty arrogance, but they naturally revealed an imposing aura as if he were looking down on the world, disregarding everyone there.

This was the vision that only a peerless powerhouse would have.

## Personality

He was an indifferent and proud character. His natural disposition was disinclined to all things inferior to him and he had a great sense of competition.

However, even such a proud character had a broad vision that made him immune to temptations and vices.

If put in a desperate situation, he would rather die than be controlled by others.

## Cultivation

### **Alternative Ethereal Martial Intent**

Feng Shen had the ability to enter into a strange cultivation state. If Lin Ming were here, he would see that this was shockingly a type of martial intent.

It was one similar to Lin Ming’s own ethereal martial intent. It was a supportive martial intent that could greatly increase one’s practice speed.

## Relationships

Saying that true feelings would be exposed in the face of adversity was no exaggeration. When Lin Ming was facing the simultaneous attack of three people and hadn’t yet become a twelve-winged Heavenly Demon, he had been at a great disadvantage.

At that time, Duanmu Qun and the rest had abandoned their own resources, taking a risk that Elder Xiao would kill them all in order to obtain a new spear for Lin Ming. None of this was an easy decision to make.

As Lin Ming traveled along his road of martial artists, all the way until this point, he had seen countless grudges and enmities exposed. He had seen intrigue, danger, hatred, all the worse facets of human nature. But, as for those people that were grateful and remembered the kindnesses that were given to them, he had actually seen very few.

### **Lin Ming**

Of the three of them. Feng Shen most understood just how terrifying Lin Ming’s strength was. As for Duanmu Qun and Lan Xin, they both knew of Lin Ming’s ability.

When Lin Ming entered the King’s Cage for 108 days, everyone had thought he had died, but, he had emerged at the last moment, not only alive, but with strength that had soared shockingly, instantly proceeding to kill High Lord Heian.

This had ingrained in him the thought of inferiority compared to the miraculous Lin Ming.

Although he admitted that his talent was inferior to Lin Ming’s, Feng Shen actually felt no envy towards Lin Ming. He knew that some top talents might consider it a misfortune to be born in the same era as someone like Lin Ming, but Feng Shen never thought so.

To him, this was actually a goal for him to pursue, a dream that he could drink from to enhance his own cultivation.

If one never saw a higher peak, then they would never know how high the mountains were. This would inevitably affect their vision and also the degree of their accomplishments.

In turn, Lin Ming regarded Feng Shen as a friend. Although initially this was only a very light and simple friendship, Lin Ming placed a great deal of importance and emphasis in these relationships he had, no matter how faint they were.

### **Duanmu Qun**

The peak Emperor level talents of the Skysplit Towers were often Fey. Feng Shen also came from a Holy Land and was old acquaintances with Duanmu Qun. They can even be considered as rivals. But after the events that happened in the Eternal Demon Abyss, these four would form a bond of friendship that was born from the trials of battle.

### **Lan Xin**

Both of them were of the same race, and, as descendants of Holy Lands, they naturally knew each other. Before, they could be considered as acquaintances that came from elite backgrounds. But after the events that happened in the Eternal Demon Abyss, these four would form a bond of friendship that was born from the trials of battle.

## Plot

### **Entering the Tower**

Feng Shen had entered the Skysplit Tower and became famous. However, due to the rules of the tower his journey would end once he reached the eight-winged Heavenly Demon tattoo.

If he wished to continue, then he had to pledge to the tower that he would serve the High Lords for 50 years. It had been publicized that he had signed a contract then.

However, in truth, the heaven-step Asura Feng Shen refused to sign the soul contract. They were individuals whose pride reached the pinnacle. Would they ever be willing to be dogs for other people? However, Feng Shen’s background was extraordinary. The powerhouse behind him negotiated with the Tower Master and received a personal guarantee. Finally, Skysplit Tower was willing to compromise.

Formerly, It was widely rumored that Feng Shen was comparable to the weakest High Lord, but, this was only a comparison. In a true life or death struggle, Feng Shen would most likely lose.

### **King’s Cage**

When Lin Ming had went towards the special practice area, he had met Feng Shen and Yan Chi. At the time, Feng Shen was the number one Heavenly Demon Seven Star of the tower.

There, he had witnessed Lin Ming reach the level of the Eightfall War Emperor and became a Titled Asura whereas Feng Shen himself was a heaven-step Asura, just below this.

But doubts surfaced as Lin Ming took too long in order to pass this trial, most thought he was dead. Even Feng Shen believed this and was dismayed.

However, Lin Ming would later shock the world by breaking the 10,000 year record and become the number one talent in the entire Holy Demon Continent. Shutting up all that doubted his strength.

Lin Ming would continue to dazzle the entire tower by fighting three heavyweights of the Heavenly Demon Seven Stars and even went on to kill the High Lord.

This would solidify in his heart that Lin Ming was the greatest talent in his entire life.

### **Sky Spill Continent**

For a Holy Land descendant to leave their Holy Land, the original reason for this was to go on adventures and gain experience. Walking 10,000 miles would always be superior to reading 10,000 books. If she could broaden her horizons and accumulate more knowledge and experience, this would be of great advantage to her cultivation and future growth.

In order to become a martial artist that stood at the peak, it was impossible to just lord over a tiny kingdom in a corner of the world. In a sense, this would be the first time that they truly faced the outside world.

### **200 years later**

During one of Lin Ming's travels in the mortal world, he had visited the Fey race.

He saw Duanmu Qun, Feng Shen, and Lan Xin.

These three people had partied together with Lin Ming in the Blood Slaughter Steppes, fighting with him. They had risked their lives with Lin Ming and there could be considered some friendship between them.

These three people had also reached the Divine Sea realm.

On the Sky Spill Planet, someone that could become an emperor in a hundred years was a peerless genius. As for Duanmu Qun and the others, they had accomplished this in their sixties.

Lin Ming quietly arrived, left behind lucky chances for the three of them, and then departed once more.
