Emperor Feng was unable to use his Immortal sense, but that didn't mean he had no other means. He directly activated the Dao Embryo within his Dantian and let it sense the Wind Dao.
"This… this is also at the Celestial level!" Emperor Feng could sense Dao Insights that would overwhelm even his own Dao Embryo below.
In fact they were so strong that his activated Dao Embryo was getting suppressed. As for the Cloud Dao, he wasn't versed in them, but could somewhat tell the presence of another Dao along with the Wind Dao below.
Seeing the movement of the clouds made it easy for him to confirm that there were Cloud Dao Insights there too.
'There is no way someone would be able to mobilize the clouds at that level without Cloud Dao Insights. Especially without using the true powers of a Celestial.' Emperor Feng knew.
The Rust Sky world would react if there was a celestial that had tried to enter it. The world would prevent them from intruding and the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts would protect the world as well.
But none of that had happened. Which meant that the Celestial level powers weren't even being used. Just mere Dao Insights were able to bring forth such an effect.
"Will I just have to wait and watch like this?" Emperor Feng had never felt this helpless before.

In the tournament grounds, just as the giant illusory figure was about to slam the Scepter on Lin Mu, it paused.
"BAXING!" The pressure of a Seventh Tribulation Stage immortal accompanied a shout.
"Storm King Immortal Arts: Sky Split Spear!" in the next moment, a giant spear formed in front of the illusory scepter.
The spear was azure green in color and looked to be almost crystalline. Lin Mu who saw it could tell that it was actually made from highly condensed Wind elemental Immortal Qi.
But that wasn't all that he recognized. Lin Mu also heard the name of the technique.
"Storm King Immortal Arts? Storm King as in the Celestial Shirong?" Lin Mu muttered in surprise.
This was none other than the same creator as that of the Bending Will Fists which allowed one to learn how to control winds without having an affinity to the element.
Bending Will Fists was more of an adaptive technique for Lin Mu, as he had learned it to further his understanding of the Wind Element for the future. As such, the technique was very low in terms of power when compared to the other techniques the Storm King had made.
The one that was being used right now seemed to be very strong… completely on a different level than the Bending Will Fists.
This made Lin Mu wonder, just who was it that could use it. And sure enough, a moment later, he finally saw the person behind it.
"Crown Prince?!" Lin Mu saw the man who looked to be casual most of the time exuding an entirely different kind of demeanor.
Crown Prince Feng Shun had his right hand extend straight while his index and middle fingers pointed up. If one looked from behind, they would see that that crystalline wind spear and his fingers actually aligned perfect.
~CLANG~
The wind spear hit the illusory scepter and actually managed to stop it in place!
Though at the same time a harsh screeching sound was heard as the two strong attacks collided.
~WOOLONGONG~
Crushing pressure spread from the impact, forcing the members in the audience to retreat and defend using their own skills. Thankfully, Yao Changying's actions in the previous round had made them wary of things like this.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf not, there was a chance they would have been caught in the conflict and gotten hurt. After all, the formations of the tournament ground had been broken by the Illusory Figure of the Imperial Might Talisman.
"Its useless brother, even with your strength and talent that shrouded me, you can't stop the Imperial Might Talisman!" Feng Baxing said with a little laugh.
"Baxing, do you know the implications of what you're doing?" The Crown Prince retorted while trying to push back the illusory Scepter but he knew that his brother was right. 'I can't stop an attack from father like this for long. Mu Lin needs to get away fast.' He thought and looked towards the man in question.
Feng Shun knew the workings of the Imperial Might Talisman and how strong it was. In fact, he had used one before in his life. It was a drastic situation when he was on an expedition in an uncharted world and had faced a great beast.
It was also the time when he was much weaker than he was right now. As such, with his life hanging by a single thread, he didn't hesitate to use the Talisman and unleashed the might of his father.
That was the first time he got to experience the full power of his father.
Being a prince, he hadn't experience the full power of his father before as there was no such avenue for it. For a Transcendent Immortal, using their full power came with great implications and could impact the entire area around them as well as the people.
The Imperial Might Talisman's effect was actually a bit reduced due to the fact that it had to first overpower the formations of the tournament ground, and then the attack from High Elder Juxue.
Perhaps if not for the formations, there was a high chance half of the audience here would have died from it too.
~HISS~
But as Feng Shun acknowledged the power of the talisman, he saw something unbelievable. A shrill hiss was heard that made him quake in his boots while a colossal figure of a serpent made from clouds dived from the sky!
It opened its cavernous mouth and directly swallowed the oh-so-powerful illusory figure of the Emperor!
