4 - Zhao Feng's

The old grandfather stroked Liu Chen's head which made Liu Chen startled until finally Liu Chen raised his face and looked at the old man in front of him.

The old grandfather removed his hand from Liu Chen's head. "Do you know how you got here?"

Liu Chen shook his head when he heard the old man's words.

The old man smiled. "I'm the one who made you here", just to be direct, his words made Liu Chen surprised.

"I-I want to go home", Liu Chen said with a heart so as not to make the old man in front of him angry.

"You won't be able to go home before you can reach emperor level cultivation"

His words immediately made Liu Chen even more surprised. How did he get to that level so quickly? That's gonna take a long time.

"But it will take a long time. I want to go home", Liu Chen lowered his head. If he continues to be here for a long time, his parents will be very anxious.

"You won't be able to go home until I let you. Tell you what, do you want to know why you're here because of me? And what's the reason I won't let you go?"

Liu Chen raised his face and shook his head. "I don't know"

"Then I'll tell you. Now we sit down first. Remember what I said, no matter how hard you try to get out of here, it won't do you any good. So what you have to do is get stronger until it reaches the level I said it was"

The old man began to sit down. He moved his hand as if hinting for Liu Chen to also sit down. Finally Liu Chen followed what this old geezer had ordered.

The old man held his chin as if thinking. "Hm..Where do I explain it? We better get acquainted first. My name is Zhao Feng. What's your name, son?"

"My name is Chen"

"Is it just Chen? Tell me what your real name is"

"Dad forbid me to say my marg name to just anyone"

"Heh, I'm not just anyone, I'm not just any soul fragment. I was a legendary man a few thousand years ago. So I'm not just anyone. You can say your name" Grandfather Feng said arrogantly.

"Grandfather Feng doesn't look like that", Liu Chen looked at Grandfather Feng's gaze. "Oh, I know! Legendary grandfather of a peanut seller! Since grandfather beans taste good, many buy them and no one can beat grandfather's artificial beans taste", Liu Chen smiled as if there was nothing wrong with his words.

"Fuckin' shit! I am not a peanut seller!", Zhao Feng was immediately angered by being said to be like that by a little boy in front of him. He used to be very respected by many people. No one ever said it like that. But now a boy said that to her?!

"Is there something wrong with my grandfather Feng?", Liu Chen seemed confused as to why Zhao Feng looked angry at him. He felt that there was nothing wrong with his words. He was also just talking earlier.

"Buck! I'm the legendary 'Sang generator'. That's my nickname. I'm not a peanut vendor, I'm a legend who once defeated a demon lord", I guess, Zhao Feng was eager to kick the boy in front of him who kept staring at him in confusion and as if he did not feel guilty by his words.

"The plant?! Demon King?!", Liu Chen was shocked when he heard what Zhao Feng said. His father once told me about a demon king who was defeated by 4 humans. One of those humans was given the nickname 'The generator' by everyone.

"Now you know who I am?" zhao Feng said arrogantly.

Liu Chen nodded. He stood up and saluted Zhao Feng. "I'm sorry for my attitude and I'm sorry for bothering you, Grandpa Feng"

"Hahaha, that's it. Now you sit down. I want to tell you something. So listen to me good good"

Liu Chen sat back down and now his gaze became even more respectful towards Zhao Feng. How not? Zhao Feng was one of the legends that many people respected for having contributed greatly in fighting the demon lord.

"What does Grandpa Feng want to say to me?", Liu Chen looked towards Zhao Feng.

"First, say your name. I want to know"

Liu Chen was a bit doubtful. However after knowing this person in front of him, Liu Chen finally revealed his name. "My name is Liu Chen, Grandfather Feng"

Zhao Feng seemed to think of something. "I don't think he's a member of the Liu family. Hahaha" he muttered. Also laugh.

Liu Chen looked strangely towards Zhao Feng. He did not know what Zhao Feng was thinking until he made himself laugh.

Suddenly Zhao Feng stopped laughing and looked towards the top side. "Hm.Why is that possible? He said his father forbade him to tell his surname. It means that this kid probably doesn't know anything about his family?" inner Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng turned his attention back to Liu Chen. "Hey boy, where are you from?"

"I?", Liu Chen pointed to himself in bewilderment.

"Of course, who else but you and me are here, you stupid little boy"

Liu Chen immediately protested. "I have a name. Don't just call me that"

"All right, now answer my question"

"I come from a village with no name"

Zhao Feng looked strange hearing the name of the nameless village. "You're so weird. I just heard there's a village with a name like that"

"My village is quite far from the capital. Maybe Grandfather Feng only knew the village or the city close to the capital"

"Huh, maybe so"

"So right my guess. He seems to know nothing about his family. He also lives in the village. It strengthens my thinking. Hahaha, I am indeed smart, I can assess the state" Zhao Feng inner while smiling his own smile and stroking his long beard. He also nodded. "I'm really smart".

"Grandfather Feng is indeed strange" Liu Chen inner.

"Then what was the purpose of Grandfather Feng taking me to a place like this?", Liu Chen began to open his voice. He wondered why Zhao Feng had brought him to this place. Liu Chen knew, Zhao Feng was now a spirit, precisely a portion of the soul left behind by Zhao Feng. Liu Chen also knew quite a bit about objects that could put one's soul. However he did not understand about the spirit stones that Zhao Feng had said.

Zhao Feng turned his attention back towards Liu Chen. "Ah, I forgot to tell you", his gaze turned serious. "I want you to be my successor and you will also be my disciple"

Liu Chen was shocked. Did he just hear wrong? But Liu Chen really clearly heard it.

He had not had the time to say anything yet, Zhao Feng resumed his words. "I'll be your teacher. My goal is to make you strong to defeat the demon lord who will rise in the next few years. Probably about 7 years.

You have no choice but to agree to what I'm saying. Because you won't be able to come back without my permission"

Liu Chen was speechless hearing what Zhao Feng said. He hesitated to be able to do what Zhao Feng said. But he also could not get out without Zhao Feng's permission. Inevitably, Liu Chen had to accept it. Liu Chen was happy to be a disciple of one of the legends. But on the other hand, Liu Chen thought of his parents who might be worried. Moreover, Liu Chen did not know when he could get out of this place.

Finally Liu Chen just nodded hearing Zhao Feng's words.

"Good, from now on call me teacher"

Liu Chen paid his respects to Master Feng.

Zhao Feng nodded, "Now follow me" said Zhao Feng who immediately went away from there. Liu Chen just followed him.

Zhao Feng stopped in front of a cave wall. He touched a crystal that glowed green, just like the others. But if viewed more carefully, there is a little blue color in the crystal that is different from the others.

Until, the shocking thing for Liu Chen happened. The cave wall with a width of 2 meters in front of Zhao Feng suddenly opened towards the left and right sweeping. "Follow me", Zhao Feng went straight into it.

"Good teacher", Liu Chen followed Zhao Feng from behind. He looked at the astonishment of his teacher who was now in front. After Liu Chen entered, the cave walls closed again.

Liu Chen gasped when he found out the cave walls were closing back. "Teacher, the cave wall.."

Liu Chen just followed his new teacher. The walls of Liu Chen's right and left side were the same as caves. But at the end of the road there is a light.

Until he and his teacher reached the end. Liu Chen stared at the astonishment of what was in front of him. In front of him at this time there is a large lake in the middle of the place with water that looks like light. While around a few meters from the lake there are several trees with leaves that look somewhat shining. Not only is that amazing, but there are various resources that can help a cultivator. There are also many plant plants to make pills.

Around the wall there is also the same crystal as in the previous cave.

"Whoah! Amazing!", Liu Chen seemed enthusiastic and amazed at what was in front of him.

Zhao Feng smiled proudly. "Hows it? Nice right? I made a place like this. I farmed it around with plants that were beneficial to an alchemist. Maybe the age of this plant hundreds of years there are also thousands of years. Surely this was extremely valuable for an alchemist to concoct pills"

Liu Chen nodded without distracting him from the front.

Zhao Feng then walked in a direction. He stopped when he was in front of a tree. He took something behind the tree trunk and walked back to Liu Chen.

Liu Chen had not realized that. Because he is still fascinated by what is in front of him. The lake looks beautiful as well as the tree trees that look shining. This was his first time.

Zhao Feng opened the small box he had in his hand. Then he took a ring inside. "Catch"

Liu Chen who heard Zhao Feng's voice turned his attention towards him. Until a ring was thrown at him. Liu Chen immediately caught the ring then noticed it. "What ring is this teacher?"

Zhao Feng smiled. Then he pointed to the ring that was in Liu Chen's hand. "That's a space ring. You can keep anything in it except living things. You just flow your Qi into the ring and you can store or take the goods that are in it. You can also see the contents and of course in the ring there is no time law"

Liu Chen looked to nod in understanding.

"Try it, Chen'er" Zhao Feng said. Liu Chen nodded at the words of his teacher.

Liu Chen poured his Qi into the ring. I see everything that is inside. He was shocked at the contents of the ring. There were many weapons, swords and spears. There are also many books.

Liu Chen looked at Zhao Feng with difficulty deciphering. "Why did the teacher give me this?"

Zhao Feng smiled hearing what Liu Chen asked. "I gave it to him because you're my student, Chen'er. Also, you have to get stronger quickly. Before the demon king rises"

Liu Chen said doubtfully to Zhao Feng. "Can I beat him, teacher?"

"If you do everything I say, you can become strong quickly, Chen'er"

Liu Chen paid his respects to Zhao Feng. "Thank you for making me your student, teacher. I will try to be strong quickly, because I also have to quickly meet my parents", he re-established his body.

Zhao Feng nodded. "Sit down first. I'll talk about a few more things", he sat down cross-legged. Liu Chen followed what Zhao Feng said. He sat in front of Zhao Feng so that made them face each other. Liu Chen also wore the ring his teacher gave him.

"U stretch out your hand" Zhao Feng said.

"What is the teacher for?"

"I want to check your dantian, Chen'er"

Liu Chen immediately extended his hand. Zhao Feng immediately touched Liu Chen's hand and drained his Qi.

"This.", Zhao Feng released his hand grip on Liu Chen. Not long, she laughed. "Haha"

Liu Chen rewinded his hand back and stared strangely at Zhao Feng. "Did the teacher hit something? The teacher always laughs to himself"

Zhao Feng stopped his laughter when he heard Liu Chen say. He smiled and shook his head.

Pud

Zhao Feng immediately snapped at Liu Chen's head. He was upset with this new student he had raised. Why talk to him like that?

Liu Chen stroked his somewhat bumpy head and immediately protested. "Why did the teacher prank me? What's wrong?"

"You don't say that to your teacher Chen'er. It was just like you said I was crazy", Zhao Feng was annoyed.

"But I didn't say mad teacher, master himself said that", Liu Chen looked confused. But he didn't say that just now.

Zhao Feng was silent. It was true what Liu Chen said. But he doesn't want to be blamed. "That's still your fault. Don't say anything like that to your teacher anymore"

"Alright", Liu Chen was still stroking his head.

"Listen to good teacher Chen'er" Zhao Feng said solemnly staring at Liu Chen.

Liu Chen stopped stroking his head. Seeing his teacher's serious demeanor, Liu Chen took it seriously to listen to what Zhao Feng was going to say.

"First, I told you about this. The demon lord will rise again after 7 years from now.

Second, from now on you are my student. If you want to return to your place, you must reach the emperor level of my training. With the many resources that are here, you can level up pretty quickly. But I'll also train you physically, Chen'er and of course it won't be easy.

Third, the demon king is sealed on an island called the island of death. Because there, there are no plants at all. It was also where the teacher and the three teacher friends fought against the demon lord.

Fourth, I will teach you to be an alchemist. Because you have the fire element.

Fifth, when the demon lord is already up, you defeat him and kill him. Surely you won't be alone, Chen'er. For now, that's all I want to say. oh yeah! Chen'er, do you know the cultivation level?"

Liu Chen nodded. "The cultivation level in this world, from the weakest to the strongest is:

*Start\=1-9

*Qi condensation\=1-9

*Qi foundation\=1-9

*Master\=1-9

*Grandmaster\=1-9

*Warrior\=1-9

*General\=1-9

*Emperor".

Zhao Feng shook his head. "There is still more after the emperor's level"

Liu Chen was surprised. "But how can? Dad told me. There's no way Dad's lying"

Zhao Feng thought for a moment. "It seems like humans can now only reach the emperor level, even then only a little. It was because of the events of the past that made many strong cultivators die. It looks like it"

Liu Chen seemed to think about what his teacher said. He just nodded. "Then what level is it after the master emperor?"

"Emperor level\=1-9, then earth\=1-7, then sky\=1-7 and last is immortal. The earth, sky and immortal levels had enormous power distances. If earth level 1 against earth level 2, of course the winner is earth level 2, even though the distance level is only one"

Liu Chen did not expect, there was a level after the emperor.
