Chapter 783 - You've Changed
The nobility ranks of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty were as follows: Grand Duke, Duke, Marquis, Earl, and Viscount.
The title of Marquis not only represented status and power, it also allowed one to gain providence of the lord dynasty.
Providence gave benefits to one's fortune and cultivation. More providence allowed one to have a higher chance of breaking through, it could increase one's battle-power, and it could increase one's endurance. Those with great providence also had greater fortune, but of course, that was only within the territory of the lord dynasty.
Therefore, countless experts fought one another to obtain the title of Marquis, but at this moment in time, the dream of billions of people was right in front of Zhao Feng.
This is the title of a Marquis…! Surprise was written all over the Eighth Prince's and Princess Yuqing's faces.
Even as a Duke and an imperial, Duke Nanfeng only had the power to give one Marquis title every three hundred years. Marquises needed to go to the Imperial Capital to be personally inducted by the Sacred Emperor. From this, one could see how hard it was to obtain the title of Marquis.
Over the past couple years, the Dark Moon Lord Dynasty was constantly attacking the Great Gan Lord Dynasty and weakening its providence, and there was a limited amount of spots for the nobility.
If Zhao Feng becomes a Marquis, he will become the most powerful person in the area aside from Duke Nanfeng. The Eighth Prince couldn't help but worry for the Luo Family. Alongside gaining the title of Marquis, one would gain a territory as well.
"Thank you for your kind intentions," Zhao Feng spoke after thinking for a short moment, "However, I want to focus on cultivating, and I won't be staying in the Tianfeng Great Island Zone for too long. Therefore, I can't join the Duke's Palace."
It wasn't that Zhao Feng was unmoved by the benefits of becoming a Marquis, but it came with a price. For example, Zhao Feng didn't necessarily want to side with Duke Nanfeng so quickly. He would go to the continent zone after recovering to the Void God Realm to meet up with Duanmu Qing and Zhao Yufei, and as one of the eight biggest super-families in the lord dynasty, the Duanmu Family might not be on Duke Nanfeng's side.
"I won't force you into making a decision. There won't be any less compensation, and I'll still owe you a favor," Duke Nanfeng said slightly regretfully. He wasn't placing great importance on Zhao Feng just because of his beast taming abilities; he also saw great potential within Zhao Feng's body.
The Eighth Prince and Princess Yuqing were in disbelief when Zhao Feng rejected the title of Marquis.
"Zhao Feng, you actually rejected my father?" Princess Yuqing looked angry. Duke Nanfeng offering Zhao Feng the title of Marquis made Princess Yuqing surprised and happy, but Zhao Feng declined.
This Zhao Feng is not simple…. The Eighth Prince felt that this youth was covered in mist, and he was unable to see through him.
After everyone calmed down, the atmosphere became joyful again. Later that day, the Duke decided to hold a banquet to thank Zhao Feng, and he had to stay due to the Duke's and Princess Yuqing's invitations.
Some of the Tianfeng Great Island Zone's nearby nobles were also invited. The location was the garden of the Duke's Palace.
As more and more people arrived, the atmosphere started to become rowdy, and Zhao Feng let himself relax a bit.
Night soon arrived, and the sound of singing and dancing could be heard. Princess Yuqing stood next to Zhao Feng and introduced her friends, but he wasn't interested.
"Zhao Feng," the voice of a dominant male sounded at a certain point in time.
Zhao Feng looked over and saw a familiar person. He didn't think that the Luo Family would also be invited.
Luo Zun, the Head of the Luo Family, and the Void God Realm King Grand Elder of the Luo Family were all present.
This banquet was different than usual. Some people would try to get in even if they didn't receive an invitation. After all, this banquet was being held by the ruler of the Tianfeng Great Island Zone.
As one of the top three families in the Tianfeng Great Island Zone, the Luo Family's relationship with the Duke's Palace wasn't bad, and Luo Zun was the number one genius of the Tianfeng Great Island Zone.
"Brother Luo, how may I help you?" Zhao Feng smiled and inspected those from the Luo Family.
The Head of the Luo Family squeezed out a smile and didn't have his usual strictness. Luo Zun's expression was forced. They obviously knew that the protagonist of this banquet was Zhao Feng. Who would dare to offend Zhao Feng or the Yunling Zhao Family after this?
"Zhao Feng, my little sister wants to meet you," Luo Zun said expressionlessly. He felt more unwilling and defeated than ever before. Although Zhao Feng might not be able to defeat him in a fight, Zhao Feng was less than half his age. This feeling was only below that of being defeated by Xin Wuheng in public.
"Little sister? Luo Shui'er?" Zhao Feng's expression changed slightly as his eyes scanned around.
Luo Shui'er was talented, and her beauty was known across the Tianfeng Great Island Zone.
Princess Yuqing's eyes couldn't help but perk up when she heard the name "Luo Shui'er," and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. The Duke's Palace had obviously scouted out information regarding Zhao Feng; Princess Yuqing knew that Luo Shui'er was Zhao Feng's fiancée and that the Eighth Prince liked her.
"Hmph, let's see how good-looking this Luo Shui'er is." Princess Yuqing harrumphed.
"Shui'er only wants to meet Zhao Feng in private." Luo Zun was relatively respectful to Princess Yuqing.
"Princess Yuqing, I'll leave for just a moment." Zhao Feng smiled at Princess Yuqing and then left with Luo Zun, leaving behind a Princess Yuqing with an unhappy expression.
"Little sister Yuqing, I really hope that you'll be able to steal this Zhao Feng away. That would be a win for both of us," a mocking tone sounded from behind. The owner of the voice was the Eighth Prince.
"Steal? Who said I liked him? I just…" Princess Yuqing's face went red.
"Oh? Like him? I didn't say that." The Eighth Prince had a playful expression as he watched Zhao Feng walk away, but he wasn't as calm as he seemed to be. In the current situation, if Zhao Feng really wanted Luo Shui'er, the Eighth Prince might not be his match.
Is it really worth it to offend Zhao Feng for a woman? the Eighth Prince thought.
At this moment, he no longer measured Zhao Feng by normal standards. The Eighth Prince felt that this Zhao Feng might be similar to Xin Wuheng – immeasurable. After awakening the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly, he had changed Duke Nanfeng's destiny to a certain degree, which might even cause some changes to the entire lord dynasty. This youth hadn't even entered the continent zone yet and he had already dropped a stone into the lake and created ripples.
Elsewhere, Zhao Feng entered a relatively faraway forest within the Duke's Palace.
"Shui'er is waiting for you inside," Luo Zun said expressionlessly before standing guard outside. Even those from the Duke's Palace were respectful to him since he was the number one genius of the Tianfeng Great Island Zone.
A charming figure with long hair came into view as Zhao Feng entered the forest. It was a girl whose hair reached her waist; she had a green dress on and seemed to be thinking. Her eyes and skin were soft like dew after the morning rain.
"Luo Shui'er."
Zhao Feng sighed. Almost any male that saw her would want to protect and love her. She was ranked at least in the top five beauties he had ever seen – her charm wasn't much weaker than Liu Qinxin's.
"Zhao Feng, do you remember? This is the place where we first met…." Luo Shui'er's pair of clear eyes landed on Zhao Feng and a dreamy light appeared in them.
"The first time?"
The scenery of light rain falling from the sky appeared in Zhao Feng's mind.
On that day, "Zhao Feng's" face went red when he saw Luo Shui'er looks, and he could only manage a stutter. Luo Shui'er smiled and was faintly embarrassed, but at that moment in time, "Zhao Feng" was only thirteen years old, and he was rather nervous, so he didn't realize that it was all purposely planned by Luo Shui'er.
Luo Shui'er was talented and beautiful, and she wasn't willing for her marriage to be decided by anyone else. She had a good impression when she saw Zhao Feng for the first time, and she agreed to the marriage.
So that's how it is. Zhao Feng recalled the details and understood a lot more. The original Zhao Feng was handsome, and his honesty and purity moved Luo Shui'er.
"I never thought that you would write an Engagement Rejection Letter one day. Is this because of your dignity? Or did you crumble in front of the Eighth Prince's power?" Luo Shui'er's eyes went slightly red.
Zhao Feng remained emotionless and walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, as if admiring Luo Shui'er.
"You've changed…!" Luo Shui'er cried after looking at Zhao Feng for a while. At this moment, Zhao Feng's eyes didn't contain any of the love from before. She was suspicious that he might not even be the same person.
"Lady Luo, I'm very sorry, but the Zhao Feng that used to like you has already left."
Zhao Feng said no more. He didn't want a repeat of what happened in Flooding Lake City. After all, this was something that the original Zhao Feng had once cared about, so Zhao Feng didn't want to meddle with it.
The relationship between Zhao Feng and Liu Qinxin was different. Thinking back to that time, although he was forced into the marriage, he ended up staying in the Flooding Lake City for half a year after being chased into a foreign land, and a knot had been tied in that half a year's time.
After saying that, Zhao Feng turned around and slowly walked out of the forest.
"Zhao Feng, you need to give me a reason at least," Luo Shui'er sniffled and said.
"Reason? You might find out very soon in the future."
Zhao Feng walked away without even looking back once.
Luo Shui'er seemed to see a figure with purple hair walk away.
At this point in time, Zhao Feng didn't give a clear answer, but Zhao Feng's identity would soon be known to the public.

Chapter 784 - Competition
Zhao Feng and the original Zhao Feng obviously weren't the same person, and they had completely different minds. He didn't want to get involved in the original body's emotions and business, no matter how beautiful Luo Shui'er was.
Zhao Feng started to think about the previous Zhao Feng's wishes after walking away. He had completed the wish of taking over the Yunling area and reviving the family, and he had healed Grandfather Zhao's injuries.
"Become the disciple of a King. Become famous in the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Tianfeng Great island Zone…."
A smile appeared on Zhao Feng's face. Becoming famous was almost complete as well; it would be done with this banquet and the Divine Illusion Trials. As for becoming the disciple of a King, Zhao Feng would be able to become a King himself soon after recovering his cultivation, which exceeded the imagination of the original Zhao Feng.
"Apart from marrying Luo Shui'er, everything's doing better than expected."
Zhao Feng nodded his head. It could be said that he had tried his best. After all, when he took over this body in the first place, the original Zhao Feng had already died, and he wasn't going to have any of his wishes fulfilled at all.
The lights of the Duke's Palace were lit up, and music travelled across the area.
Zhao Feng was, without a doubt, the protagonist of the banquet tonight. All the nobles around the Tianfeng Great Island Zone met this genius Beast Tamer, and there were even two Kings from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan present, who apparently had a good relationship with Duke Nanfeng.
Zhao Feng was invited by and given presents from many people with power around the Tianfeng Great Island Zone, but luckily, Princess Yuqing helped Zhao Feng relieve the pressure.
Duke Nanfeng's favorite daughter was extremely close to Zhao Feng, and this scene obviously fell into the eyes of Duke Nanfeng and those from the Luo Family. It wasn't hard to see that Princess Yuqing admired and had a good impression of Zhao Feng.
Duke Nanfeng saw this and smiled but didn't say anything. He wouldn't be against it if Princess Yuqing was able to get together with Zhao Feng.
Those from the Luo Family had worried expressions. If Zhao Feng wrote an Engagement Rejection Letter and then became the son-in-law of Duke Nanfeng, that would be a big blow to the Luo Family, but luckily for them, what they worried about didn't happen. Zhao Feng didn't seem to be very interested in Princess Yuqing, and he felt rather helpless as the latter took him around.
Elsewhere in the banquet, Luo Zun and the Eighth Prince, who were usually two very outstanding youths, were standing in a corner.
"That Zhao Feng rejected Luo Shui'er and isn't interested in Princess Yuqing either. What is he thinking?" The Eighth Prince's gaze landed on Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng became more and more mysterious. Even the Eighth Prince was attracted by Luo Shui'er beauty, and Princess Yuqing's status was something countless males dreamed of. However, Zhao Feng gave both of these two goddesses up.
It was extremely frustrating and odious comparing oneself to others. The Eighth Prince couldn't help but ask himself, Would the noble Eighth Prince of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty lose to a youth from such a small family?
The banquet ended very late. Zhao Feng thanked Duke Nanfeng and left. Duke Nanfeng didn't make Zhao Feng stay any longer, he just gave Zhao Feng the compensation and let him leave.
Whoosh!
Zhao Feng left the Duke's Palace on the Yinming Bird. He started organizing the compensation from Duke Nanfeng on the way back.
The Soul Dao resources that Zhao Feng needed were included in the compensation, and they were extremely valuable. Apart from that, Duke Nanfeng had also given him some Primal Crystal Stones. They weren't normal Primal Crystal Stones – they were peak-grade.
The difference between high-grade and peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones was extremely big. One high-grade Primal Crystal Stone was worth a hundred mid-grade Primal Crystal Stones or ten thousand low-grade Primal Crystal Stones, but one peak-grade Primal Crystal Stone was worth one million high-grade Primal Crystal Stones. From this, one could see how rare peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones were.
Back then, Zhao Feng used many peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones to pass through the Spiritual Zone Teleportation Arrays to travel from the Floating Dream Sacred Land to the Azure Flower Continent and then from the Azure Flower Continent to the Nanlin Sea. Zhao Feng had spent 95% of his wealth doing this, and he even borrowed from Emperor Zi Mu.
After taking over this body, Zhao Feng had almost no peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones left, but now, Duke Nanfeng gave him almost a hundred peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones, which was worth almost a hundred million high-grade Primal Crystal Stones.
Of course, in comparison to that, the favor Duke Nanfeng owed Zhao Feng might be of even higher value.
"This amount of resources is enough for me to cultivate to the Void God Realm, but the resources I will need afterward will be much greater."
Zhao Feng's aim was set very high. He wasn't re-cultivating just to become a King; he was aiming much higher and further. Therefore, he had to grasp this once-in-a-century chance to enter the Divine Illusion Dimension.
According to what he knew, many rare and extinct resources were in the Divine Illusion Dimension. For example, the legendary God Primal Crystal Stones that were even rarer than peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones.
God Primal Crystal Stones were unable to be artificially made in the current Fan Universe, so they usually came from ancient ruins such as the Divine Illusion Dimension.
God Primal Crystal Stones were the core of Zone Teleportation Arrays, and they could help those at the Mystic Light Realm and even Demigods.
For the current Zhao Feng though, peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones were already good enough.
Zhao Feng entered seclusion once more when he returned to the clan.
"I'll go back to the Duke's Palace a month later, and the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly will be completely awake by then." Zhao Feng confirmed the time before he entered seclusion.
Within the room, a layer of silver-blue metallic light glowed around Zhao Feng's body as if he was a sculpture of silver ice.
Weng~ Weng~
The Water of Wind Lightning surrounded Zhao Feng's body and refined his flesh, organs, and bones.
Ever since the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body reached the fourth level, Zhao Feng's physical strength had become much stronger. At this moment, he could crush normal Origin Core Realms with his physical strength alone.
In addition, because he had trained the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique, Zhao Feng could cultivate his two top skills simultaneously. In comparison to the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body, Zhao Feng's progress on the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique was even faster since he had the foundation of the Wind Lightning Inheritance from his previous life, as well as his Emperor Intent.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed, and Zhao Feng's Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique broke through to the fifth level.
The Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique was split into twelve levels; the first three were the foundations of Wind Lightning. From the fourth level to the sixth level, the first of the five elements would be cultivated.
Zhao Feng had chosen the Water of Wind Lightning for his first element.
At the seventh level, Zhao Feng would continue to the second elemental Wind Lightning – the Wood of Wind Lightning.
From Water came Wood, from Wood came Fire, from Fire came Earth, from Earth came Metal, and from Metal came Water. Together, they formed a complete circuit.
The seventh level would be the Wood of Wind Lightning, the eighth would be the Fire of Wind Lightning, the ninth would be the Earth of Wind Lightning, and the tenth would be the Metal of Wind Lightning.
From the tenth level onward, the five elements became one.
All of that came from the essence of the Five Elemental Ten Thousand Lightning Technique. Of course, the speed of the Wind Lightning Inheritance and the power of its Destruction would also appear.
However, Zhao Feng could merge the Intent of Destruction and the power of God Tribulation Lightning into his Wind Lightning before completing the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique.
"The power of God Tribulation Lightning is the most profound. I'll infuse that after I recover my Emperor Intent," Zhao Feng planned.
On this day, a ripple of water and lightning appeared in the air above Zhao Feng's courtyard, and its aura spread across dozens of miles. A black hole seemed to form in the air and suck in the nearby Heaven Earth Yuan Qi.
"That brat's trying to break through to the Origin Core Realm already…!" Senior Martial Brother Guang and company noticed what was happening in Zhao Feng's courtyard, and the hearts of some Central disciples shook. How long had it been? Only half a year had passed, and Zhao Feng was trying to break through to the Origin Core Realm already? Furthermore, the aura of the whirlpool in the air was extremely strong, and it sucked in pure Yuan Qi of Lightning and Water.
Zhao Feng trying to break through to the Origin Core Realm caught the attention of a few Kings as well, but the whirlpool disappeared after two days.
"Did he fail?"
"Hmph, that Zhao Feng is too cocky. He hasn't even reached the half-step Origin Core Realm for long and yet he's already trying to break through to the Origin Core Realm?"
"No matter how talented and fortunate one is, if their foundation isn't strong and solid, they won't be able to break through."
The nearby Central disciples all let out a breath. It would pain others if Zhao Feng could break through to the Origin Core Realm so easily.
Right at this moment, the protective array around Zhao Feng's courtyard faded – he was coming out of seclusion.
At this instant, many Spiritual Senses and a few Divine Senses scanned through the air.
"Hmm?"
"Eh…? What's going on?"
The youth that came out had a rosy face; he wasn't pale and weak like someone that just failed to break through. Zhao Feng's aura had risen to an entirely new level, and he radiated True Yuan.
True Yuan! This meant that he had broken through to the Origin Core Realm, and the Divine Senses even noticed the Core Center in his body.
"Origin Core Realm? He succeeded?"
"How is this possible…!? He managed to form a Core Center in just two days?"
The Central disciples close by were speechless, and even the Divine Senses were stunned.
"With the help of peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones, forming a Core Center went much faster than when I formed it in my previous life." Zhao Feng smiled.
His Intent was strong, he had peak-grade Primal Crystal Stones, and he had plenty of Water and Lightning elemental materials to help him. Therefore, he managed to successfully form a Core Center very quickly. Normally, if the whirlpool faded away so quickly, that meant that the person had failed.
The second Zhao Feng walked out:
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several Magnificent Powers gathered toward Zhao Feng.
"Zhao Feng, are you willing to become my disciple?" A middle-aged King in snow white robes appeared in the air above Zhao Feng.
"King Lu Yun!"
"It's Huang Yunhu's Master, King Lu Yun!"
The nearby Central disciples exclaimed.
Zhao Feng injuring and defeating Huang Yunhu two different times had already raised King Lu Yun's attention.
"King Lu Yun, wait!"
"This disciple is free to choose whoever he wishes. Don't force him."
Two other King Elders appeared in the air.
"It's King Thunder and King Liu Qiong!"
The mouths of the nearby disciples fell open. Three Kings appeared at the same time and were all fighting for Zhao Feng to become their disciple. It seemed like Zhao Feng would become a Core disciple at the very least.
"Master…!" Senior Martial Brother Guang exclaimed as he stared at King Liuqiong. Even his own master was competing to make Zhao Feng his disciple.

Chapter 785 - Awakening
Senior Martial Brother Guang Tian was just an in-name disciple of King Liu Qiong, and he wasn't even a Core disciple. He couldn't accept this; the untouchable master in his heart was fighting against two other Kings because he wanted to take Zhao Feng as a disciple.
The news about Zhao Feng over the past few days had exceeded the limits of what Senior Martial Brother Guang could imagine. Apparently, Duke Nanfeng praised Zhao Feng and even held a banquet for him. Even the Luo Family, one of the top three families of the Great Island Zone, apologized to the Zhao Family. Even more incredibly, Zhao Feng declined the offer to become a Marquis, and on top of that, Duke Nanfeng owed Zhao Feng a favor.
The three Void God Realm Kings were all fighting over Zhao Feng.
What happened to Zhao Feng? Ever since he returned from the Wuyou Forest… Senior Martial Brother Guang looked as if he had lost his soul, and he started feeling suspicious about what happened to Zhao Feng, but what could his speculations and suspicions do?
Only a few of the Zhao Family's upper echelon knew that Zhao Feng had taken over the original owner's body, and they obviously had to preserve that secret.
"I thank the three Elders for your appreciation…" Zhao Feng said as he looked up and gazed at the three beams of Magnificent Power.
At this moment, the nearby disciples all held their breath and waited for Zhao Feng's decision. For the Central disciples, this decision could change their fate. It was hard to imagine that Zhao Feng was still able to remain so calm.
"…but I'm very sorry. I'm already the disciple of a Void God Realm Emperor."
Zhao Feng's words were like a bomb.
Void God Realm Emperor. The hearts of the Central disciples and the three Void God Realm Kings shook.
"No wonder Zhao Feng's changed so much. It's not something that pure fortune can explain. He became the disciple of an Emperor!"
The gazes from the nearby disciples were filled with jealousy and envy as they looked at Zhao Feng.
Plop!
Senior Martial Brother Guang's body shook, and he fell to the ground.
Zhao Feng didn't care about the status of a Core disciple, and he rejected the three Kings as well, and his reasoning made them all feel helpless.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan used to be a three-star force, but now it only had three Void God Realm Emperors. The number of Emperors in the Tianfeng Great Island Zone could be easily counted. The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan had the most Emperors in the great island zone, but at its peak, it was even stronger than the Mystic True Sacred Clan; it used to have multiple Sacred Lords.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The three Void God Realm Kings left regretfully without asking Zhao Feng about which Emperor was his master. Even the weakest Emperor wasn't something a normal King could be compared to.
After they left:
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao!"
The eyes of the Central disciples all lit up as they tried to talk to Zhao Feng, but he just snickered and left on the Yinming Bird.
The further one went down the path of cultivation, the longer it took. There was still two months left till the Divine Illusion Dimension opened, and Zhao Feng needed to prepare.
"That brat… is damn cocky," some Central disciples said unhappily.
"Sigh, he does have the right to be cocky though."
"If I was the disciple of an Emperor and was praised by Duke Nanfeng, wouldn't that mean I could do as I wished in the Tianfeng Great Island Zone?"
The disciples sighed with admiration and envy.
Of the group, Senior Martial Brother Guang felt the worst.
Zhao Feng definitely sensed something when I tried to deal with him…. Apart from anger, unwillingness, and jealousy, Senior Martial Brother Guang also felt scared of the future.
Zhao Feng headed toward the Duke's Palace on the Yinming Bird. He was going to the Duke's Palace to make sure the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly had awakened completely.
The speed of the Yinming Bird was extremely fast, and its aura of Death was stronger than before. Zhao Feng had trained it, and the best way to increase its strength was to use Soul Dao resources.
Zhao Feng received some Soul Dao resources from the Duke's Palace, but they were only useful to those below the King level. The foundation and strength of Zhao Feng's soul couldn't be compared to others, so he only used a couple of the best resources and gave the rest to the Yinming Bird.
As for how to train it specifically, he left all that to the little thieving cat.
The Yinming Bird's cultivation was about to enter the Great Origin Core Realm, which was enough for a steed.
Four hours later, Zhao Feng arrived at the Duke's Palace, and the Duke was waiting there already.
"The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly has been waking up momentarily every couple days…." Duke Nanfeng started to talk about the situation of the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly.
Zhao Feng closely inspected it, and the small jade-like silkworm was lying silently in the liquid of Life. The aura of Life radiating from it was much stronger than before, and one could detect a faint Soul undulation from it.
"It's about time," Zhao Feng said, then took out a dark red fruit juice prepared beforehand.
This time, Zhao Feng had merged in even more of the Spiritual Fruit, as well as flesh and blood from the Ancient Dream Realm animals.
Zhao Feng poured the dark red fruit juice over the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly.
Pa!
The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly seemed to wake up as it flapped its wings and started to absorb the fruit juice.
The Yuan Qi contained within the fruit juice was extremely compatible with the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly, and the silkworm obviously become stronger after absorbing it. Of course, the resources from the Duke's Palace also helped.
Zhao Feng stayed behind for a day and inspected it. The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly was recovering in every aspect, including its soul. It started to wake up more frequently and stay awake for longer durations.
"Congratulations, Duke. The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly has passed the danger and the deep sleeping. Right now, it's just a little weak. It will recover within a year or two," Zhao Feng smiled and said.
Hearing that, Duke Nanfeng was overjoyed. Whether the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly survived or not could change his fate.
"This junior still needs to go back for the Divine Illusion Trials and will be unable to stay longer."
"Divine Illusion Trials?" Duke Nanfeng's eyes flashed as he thought of something, and a book appeared in his hand.
"This book contains some secret information regarding the Divine Illusion Dimension. You can go back and inspect it," Duke Nanfeng said.
Hearing that, Zhao Feng immediately gave his thanks and memorized the contents of the book.
As an ancient and enormous lord dynasty, the Great Gan imperials knew far more about the Divine Illusion Dimension than two-star or three-star forces.
While returning to the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, Zhao Feng started to digest the information about the Divine Illusion Dimension.
"The Divine Illusion Dimension is a forgotten dimension, and the Great Gan Lord Dynasty probably hasn't even been able to map one tenth of it."
Zhao Feng was surprised by what he saw.
The Divine Illusion Dimension would connect to the continent zone once every hundred years, and the forces of the continent zone would construct an array to reinforce that connection. However, as the Divine Illusion Dimension was too big, the specific area of the continent zone it connected with was different every time.
In addition, the chance of death in the Divine Illusion Dimension was incredibly high, easily surpassing the inheritances of most clans.
"The possibility of dying has reached 50%!?"
Zhao Feng was shocked, but all the various forces agreed that it was best to weed out the weak and preserve the strong. Great importance was placed upon those who managed to survive.
The book also recorded some particularly dangerous areas and various other places in the Divine Illusion Dimension, as well as some guesses and analyses about the dimension.
When Zhao Feng got back to the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, there was only three days left till the Divine Illusion Trials.
At this moment, everyone that wanted to sign up had already done so, and the atmosphere was fiery hot. Some cultivators that had been in seclusion for a long time came out and got ready.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan only had one hundred slots to send into the Divine Illusion Dimension. Amongst them, over half would be given to the younger generation while 30-40% was left for the older generation.
This time, the older generation had thirty-five slots.
Anyone under the age of fifty was considered to be part of the younger generation, and anyone over fifty was part of the older generation.
Compared to the young generation, the competition between the older generation was even fiercer.
Those that had signed up were all at least at the peak-stage True Lord Rank, while those at the Small Origin Core Realm made up the majority.
During these last three days, Zhao Feng didn't enter seclusion, he just went into the Ancient Dream Realm. Now that he had reached the Origin Core Realm and his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body had broken through to the fourth level, he could walk around in the Ancient Dream Realm for a while.
In the center of a forest in the Ancient Dream Realm, the python and bird were protecting the Spiritual Fruits on the tree. The Dark Heart Seal that Zhao Feng had used was still effective on them, so he ordered the bird to kill some animals and bring their flesh over to him, which was used to refine Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body.
In his previous life, he realized that the child Demigod really wanted this meat, as if it helped his body and bloodline a lot.
Over the last couple days, Zhao Feng had eaten meat from the Ancient Dream Realm or used it in conjunction with medicines. It was really effective; Zhao Feng could feel his body and bloodline become stronger.
After his Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique broke through to the fifth level, his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body had also managed to take a little step forward and reach the early stages of the fourth level.
From the fourth level onward, each level in the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body was split into different stages: beginning, early, late, and peak.
The meat from the Ancient Dream Realm played a huge part in this advancement, and Zhao Feng was saving the Spiritual Fruits on the tree for when he became a King.
Before the Divine Illusion Trials started, Zhao Feng soaked in the blood essence of some Ancient Dream Realm animals for two days and two nights as he ate some meat.
Right at this instant, he suddenly felt that the bloodline that had been lurking within his new body was starting to change, and his blood seemed to burn.

Chapter 786 - Divine Illusion Trials
As Zhao Feng soaked in the medicine and essence of the Ancient Dream Realm animal flesh, he felt the burning sensation within his blood become stronger. He wasn't a complete newb that knew nothing about bloodlines, so he obviously knew what this meant.
"This bloodline seems to be of the Fire element…." Zhao Feng's eyebrows furrowed together because he already had an Ice and Water bloodline within his body that came from the God's Spiritual Eye. If this awakening bloodline was a Fire bloodline, the two bloodlines would counter one another.
As the burning sensation became stronger, a flaming red color that was slightly fainter than the color of blood flowed through his blood and gave off a transparent light.
"Hm? The power of this bloodline isn't weaker than a Ten Thousand Ancient Races bloodline." Zhao Feng revealed a weird expression.
Luckily, what Zhao Feng was worried about didn't happen. The Ice and Water bloodline was created by the God's Spiritual Eye and the red flaming bloodline was created by his body, and because humans were made of atoms, they were balanced. Zhao Feng circulated his Eye Intent and the flaming bloodline was easily controlled by him.
The aura of the God's Spiritual Eye could suppress this bloodline – Zhao Feng was able to control even the Mystic Ice Scaled Race bloodline with his powerful Intent, which was ranked 89th among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races.
Who knows what the abilities of this bloodline are? Zhao Feng thought.
He could control this bloodline as he pleased due to the experience of his previous life and his experience with Emperor Intent. Furthermore, the flesh from the Ancient Dream Realm allowed one's bloodline to become purer; Zhao Feng and the child Demigod had found that out long ago.
"I'll ignite this bloodline the best I can first, then test it out in the Divine Illusion Trials tomorrow," Zhao Feng decided.
Later that day, Zhao Feng ignited it. Others would usually take several years and maybe even ten years to go from the awakening stage to the ignition stage. However, this cost Zhao Feng a lot of resources.
That night, the air above Zhao Feng's courtyard was covered in a transparent red flame that was dozens of yards wide.
"What aura is this!?"
The faint bloodline aura made the nearby Central disciples' bloodlines become uneasy. However, the aura was extremely faint, so people that were too far away couldn't sense it, but even then, it attracted the attention of a small number of people.
On the morning of the second day, the Central disciples got up early with expectation.
"The Divine Illusion Trials are about to start…." Senior Martial Brother Guang took a deep breath and walked out of his courtyard. He instinctively glanced toward the direction of Zhao Feng's courtyard. This one look made him pause; the air above Zhao Feng's courtyard was covered with a fresh flaming light that seemed to interact with the sunlight like the power of an Ancient Golden Crow.
"Could this be related to the bloodline of the Golden Crow Race of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races?" Zhao Feng's heart jumped, but then he shook his head.
The Golden Crow Race was ranked 8th among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races, and it was a race that was considered heaven-defying.
There was only one Golden Crow that could be seen in the Fan Universe – the Ancient Flaming Sun.
If one flew higher than the limitless ocean, then they would be able to approach the Golden Crow that mortals called the sun. However, no one dared to get close to the Golden Crow. Even Demigods and Gods would be turned into ashes if they got too close to the Golden Crow.
Members of this legendary race were extremely big, and this Golden Crow supplied the light to the entire Fan Universe. However, the Golden Crow was extremely far away from the continent zone, and it wasn't much of a threat due to the limitless ocean.
Without the limitless ocean protecting them, over 90% of the beings in the world would be turned into ashes from the light of the Golden Crow.
There was a legend about this. In a certain era, there were ten Golden Crows. Even the powerful ancient races felt hot, and it seemed as if everything was about to be destroyed, so the other races discussed how to handle these ten Golden Crows. Unfortunately, the power of the ten Golden Crows was too great, and even the ancient gods were unable to get close to them.
At this critical moment in time, a genius appeared from the first-ranked Ancient Race. Using a peerless divine bow that the other races created, he shot down and killed nine Golden Crows, saving the world.
Of course, that was just a legend, but one could see how terrifying the Golden Crow Race was even if the legend was false.
"My bloodline can absorb the power of the Golden Crow even though it's not the bloodline of the Golden Crow. This is extremely weird," Zhao Feng murmured.
He didn't even dare to think about having one of the top ten bloodlines of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races. They were on par with the Eight Great God Eyes.
After all, there were still a few Fire bloodlines or techniques that could absorb the light from the Golden Crow. For example, the Heaven Sun Battle Race was related to the Golden Crow Race, so it was able to absorb its power.
Hu~
Zhao Feng let out a breath as his bloodline power started to fade. After last night, his bloodline had become much stronger. He decided to go back to the Zhao Family after the Divine Illusion Trials to ask whether an ancestor of the Zhao Family had a similar bloodline.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao…." the sound of a sweet and kind female voice sounded from outside.
"Senior Martial Sister Wan." Zhao Feng walked out and saw the kind Senior Martial Sister Wan.
Zhao Feng could feel the jealous gaze of Senior Martial Brother Guang clearly.
Over the last few months, Senior Martial Sister Wan had been cultivating very hard, and she broke through to the True Lord Rank. She didn't want to give up on the chance to enter the Divine Illusion Dimension.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao, Junior Martial Sister Wan…." Senior Martial Brother Guang squeezed out a smile and walked over. He had also put in some effort in order to enter the Divine Illusion Dimension. With the help of his master, he had reached the half-step Origin Core Realm. The half-step Origin Core Realm was above average amongst Central disciples, but he wasn't confident he would be able to take a spot.
The Central disciples split into their groups and went to participate in the Divine Illusion Trials. Having a cultivation of the Origin Core Realm, Zhao Feng was amongst the top of the Central disciples. Even some Core disciples didn't have a cultivation of the Origin Core Realm. A normal disciple that had such a cultivation at his age would already be a disciple of a King or even an Emperor.
At this moment, Senior Martial Brother Guang felt helpless, and he had complex emotions when facing Zhao Feng. It was as if, no matter what he did, he would be unable to stop the rise of this youth.
The group of Central disciples were all extremely respectful toward Zhao Feng and tried to get on his good side.
Zhao Feng's attitude could be considered cold and even arrogant, but that didn't stop the Central disciples from being enthusiastic.
Senior Martial Brother Guang wanted to join in, but he felt bitter and helpless. Right now, his current problem was how to resolve the enmity between himself and Zhao Feng. If he didn't do this, then he wouldn't even have a place in the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan later given the speed of Zhao Feng's rise.
In a valley of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan's territory, all of the participating disciples gathered.
The Divine Illusion Trials were split into two groups. One was the younger generation and the other was the older generation.
"All of the disciples participating in the Divine Illusion Trials, enter the secret realm," a Void God Realm King spoke.
Zhao Feng knew this King; it was Huang Yunhu's master, King Lu Yun.
"A trial held within a secret realm! As expected of a clan that used to be three stars," Zhao Feng exclaimed.
In reality, the three-star Mystic True Sacred Clan that Zhao Feng used to be part of also held their trials for the Demigod Forgotten Garden in a secret realm, but by the time Zhao Feng arrived, that competition was already over, so Duanmu Qing had to give Zhao Feng a reserved spot.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan also had a few reserved spots.
Weng~~
A faint green whirlpool appeared in the air above the valley.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The group of disciples entered the whirlpool.
Zhao Feng was sitting on the Yinming Bird with Senior Martial Sister Wan as they entered the whirlpool together.
Bo~~
As if passing through a layer of water, the group entered a dimension with extremely strong pressure.
The secret realm was faint green and only a hundred miles wide, similar to the ancient arena of the Azure Flower Continent's Sacred Alliance. One could tell that this secret realm was used expressly for competitions.
There were two Void God Realm Kings as well as many judges at the peak Sovereign Lord or half-step King level.
There was a total of eight arena stages, but only four were open. They were respectively in the four directions: north, east, south, west.
Each participating disciple had received a token with a number on it when they registered. Zhao Feng was sent to the southern stage.
Each stage had hundreds of Central and Outer disciples. Indeed, Outer disciples could also participate in the Divine Illusion Trials.
Zhao Feng's eyes scanned over the group and found some familiar faces, most of which were Central disciples. Huang Yunhu, who Zhao Feng had defeated twice, was included.
After losing twice, Huang Yunhu focused on cultivating and finally managed to break through to the Origin Core Realm. However, just a day or two after he reached the Origin Core Realm, Zhao Feng also broke through, which was a critical blow to him.
We're both at the Origin Core Realm, and he can't use his spiritual pet in the Divine Illusion Trials. Huang Yunhu's eyes twinkled, but thinking about how Zhao Feng defeated him with a cultivation of the True Mystic Rank when he was at the half-step Origin Core Realm, Huang Yunhu had no confidence at all.
"Liu Tianfan!"
"Oh my god! That guy's in the southern stage!?"
Exclamations came from the group as all their gazes were attracted to a tall youth.
Liu Tianfan, one of the top three Core disciples, with a cultivation of the peak Great Origin Core Realm, and the disciple of an Emperor. Zhao Feng obviously knew such a famous person.
The majority of the top twenty Core disciples had a cultivation of the Great Origin Core Realm.
"Liu Tianfan!" Huang Yunhu's eyes lit up as he hurried over. Since they were both Core disciples, the relationship between him and Liu Tianfan was not bad.
At the same moment, Zhao Feng's eyes landed on a girl wearing a multicolored robe on the eastern stage.
"Kong Feiling, the number one Core disciple of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. She has a cultivation of a half-step King and an Imperial Dao bloodline…."

Chapter 787 - Physical Force
The multi-colored-clothes Kong Feiling was the center of attention for many other disciples. It wasn't just Zhao Feng that was paying attention to her.
Without a doubt, she was the prodigy of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. Disciple of an Emperor, Imperial Dao bloodline… she was even ranked on the Genius Rankings of the Great Gan Imperial Prodigies.
In the Great Gan Lord Dynasty, the Genius Rankings contained the top five hundred strongest bloodlines and the top five hundred peerless prodigies.
It was worth noting that both rankings continuously fluctuated. After all, this era was heading into the future, and geniuses were maturing while bloodlines were evolving.
On the stages of the secret realm, amongst all the geniuses of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, Zhao Feng obviously gave more attention to Kong Feiling. He felt that her talent and strength were close to Nan Gongsheng's when he was in the Demigod Forgotten Garden.
As if sensing something, the beautiful girl turned toward Zhao Feng's direction, and an invisible mental energy covered the area around Zhao Feng. The ten geniuses around Zhao Feng all felt unable to breathe; it was as if an invisible beam had slashed across them.
Plop!
A True Spirit Realm Outer disciple knelt softly as he fell to the ground.
Only Zhao Feng acted like nothing was happening, and he gave a faint smile.
"That youth…" Kong Feiling was surprised. That youth still acted normally even under her half-step King Intent.
"Senior Martial Sister Kong, that person is the famous Beast Tamer Zhao Feng. Apparently, he's a disciple of an Emperor, and even Duke Nanfeng praised him," a nearby male in a t-shirt said with a smile.
The momentary exchange between Zhao Feng and Kong Feiling obviously raised the attention of the other geniuses.
"Who is he? He's able to withstand the half-step King Intent of the Head disciple!"
The gazes of many disciples turned toward Zhao Feng, especially the ones from the southern stage.
"He is the Zhao Feng you were talking about?" A light flashed through Liu Tianfan's eyes. Huang Yunhu suppressed the surprise in his heart and nodded in agreement, "It's him."
Huang Yunhu didn't expect that even half-step King Intent wouldn't be able to suppress Zhao Feng. Only seconds earlier, he was trying to get Liu Tianfan to teach Zhao Feng a lesson.
"You don't need to bait me. I'm slightly interested in this Zhao Feng." Liu Tianfan looked at Huang Yunhu with a deep meaning, making cold sweat appear on his back. Among the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan disciples, Liu Tianfan's cultivation was only below Kong Feiling's
With Liu Tianfan's strength, he should be able to teach Zhao Feng a lesson, Huang Yunhu thought. After all, the difference in cultivation between the two was just too big. One was at the early stages of the Origin Core Realm while the other was at the peak Great Origin Core Realm.
According to the rules of the Divine Illusion Trials, the chance of Zhao Feng and Liu Tianfan meeting wasn't small.
The rules go by elimination. If one loses seven fights in a row or a total of twenty, they will be eliminated, Zhao Feng thought.
Each stage only took the top fifty, and the four stages would then combine and determine the top sixty. Even the final stage was chosen by elimination.
Why was it sixty and not sixty-five? Because five of the slots were predetermined.
The fighting on the four stages started very soon.
Plop!
"Arghh!"
There was a disciple instantly sent into the air as soon as the fight began. Zhao Feng looked over and couldn't help but shake his head.
Outer, Central, and Core disciples could all participate in the Divine Illusion Trials, and obviously, the disparity in strength between them could be rather big. If an Outer disciple met a Core disciple, they would be defeated instantly.
The rounds continued, and it was soon Zhao Feng's turn, but his opponent… was a weak early-stage True Lord Rank Central disciple.
"I admit defeat." The True Lord Rank Central disciple immediately gave up when he saw Zhao Feng, who was at the Origin Core Realm.
Anyone with a cultivation of the Origin Core Realm was definitely amongst the top of the younger disciples. Instead of being injured and losing anyway, it was better to conserve one's strength.
Usually, when the strength between the two sides was too big, the judge would announce the result before the fight even finished.
Zhao Feng's first fight ended just like that.
Liu Tianfan had the highest cultivation on the southern stage, and Huang Yunhu was also amongst the top. Any disciple that met these two immediately gave up.
Zhao Feng was essentially a Core disciple in the eyes of others, and he was even more mysterious than normal Core disciples.
Half a day later, Zhao Feng went up for his second match. His opponent was at the peak True Lord Rank, but he gave up as well.
"Boring." Zhao Feng shook his head, and the little thieving cat on his shoulder also seemed to be bored.
It wasn't that the competition wasn't exciting; there were cases of the underdog winning. However, Zhao Feng had reached the Origin Core Realm, and he stood at the top of the younger disciples. It was a lot different from when he was at the Sacred True Dragon Gathering, where Zhao Feng's cultivation was below average. At the beginning of that, his total strength was only slightly above the median.
All battles of the five Overwhelming Prodigies during the early part of the Sacred True Dragon Gathering was the same as what Zhao Feng was experiencing now. They were either defeated instantly, or they surrendered as soon as they got up on stage. That was boring as well.
However, the Divine Illusion Trials lasted for a long time; it would take at least twenty days. The Divine Illusion Trials were different from the Sacred True Dragon Gathering. The Sacred True Dragon Gathering only needed to rank the top ten while the Divine Illusion Trials would take the top fifty from four different stages, then the top sixty from that group.
For the third match, Zhao Feng's opponent was a cold half-step Origin Core Realm youth – an elite among Central disciples.
This Zhao Feng has only just reached the Origin Core Realm. If I draw with him or perform well, maybe I will be able to attract the attention of some Kings. The cold youth decided. Although the chance of winning wasn't big, he still wanted to give it a shot.
On the stage, the faceoff between Zhao Feng and the cold youth caught some attention, including Huang Yunhu, Liu Tianfan, and Kong Feiling.
However, the battle ended much faster than anyone expected.
Whoosh!
A ripple of Wind Lightning appeared as the cold youth's attack missed.
"Not good!" He felt a gust of wind from behind.
Bam!
The cold youth was sent flying by one punch. He managed to circulate his half-step True Yuan and form a defensive barrier, but it crumpled like paper from the simple punch.
Hua!
Discussion started to break out.
"What speed!"
Most spectators only saw a flash, then the cold youth fell.
The weaker ones only noticed Zhao Feng's speed, but the stronger geniuses had solemn expressions as well as disbelief.
"Zhao Feng didn't seem to use any True Yuan in that punch…." Huang Yunhu's mouth dropped wide open. He was paying 120% attention to Zhao Feng's fight. After all, he had lost twice to Zhao Feng before.
"Correct." Liu Tianfan next to him was certain.
Zhao Feng used overwhelming speed and threw a simple punch. The punch didn't contain any True Yuan and yet it easily smashed through the defensive barrier of a half-step Origin Core Realm.
Zhao Feng's name became even more famous, causing everyone to be wary of him.
After the third round, as long as Zhao Feng's opponents was below the Origin Core Realm, they admitted defeat, giving Zhao Feng a run of eight straight wins.
Zhao Feng met Huang Yunhu in the ninth battle.
Is this it? Huang Yunhu took a deep breath and became serious. The two defeats to Zhao Feng made even King Lu Yun feel like he had lost face.
At this moment, King Lu Yun was also paying attention.
"Start!" The judge waved his hand.
Weng~
Huang Yunhu circulated his True Yuan, and a thick layer of armor appeared around his skin. Using the help of an Earth-grade Earth-elemental armor, he was able to activate his defense quickly.
"Huang Yunhu's tactic isn't bad. Zhao Feng's advantage is speed, so as long as he defends properly, he can find a chance to counterattack," Liu Tianfan praised.
Bam!
With a flash, Zhao Feng's fist landed on Huang Yunhu's Earth-grade armor and caused an explosion.
"How is this possible…!?" Huang Yunhu was forced to retreat, and he almost spat out blood.
A layer of blue-silver metallic lines appeared when Zhao Feng thrust his fist out. A dominating physical force passed through the Earth-grade armor and entered Huang Yunhu's body and organs.
Chaos broke out below the stage. In just one punch, Huang Yunhu felt as if he had been sent flying.
Peng!
Before Huang Yunhu managed to gain a stable footing, Zhao Feng unleashed several more punches.
Anyone that comes close to my Earth-grade armor will have to bear gravity ten times as strong as usual, but that brat isn't affected…. Huang Yunhu was stunned as he got pushed back.
Wah!
After several more punches, Huang Yunhu spat out a mouthful of blood as a crack appeared on his armor.
"Zhao Feng wins!" the judge immediately announced as he saw the situation. It was also because of King Lu Yun.
Their power isn't on the same level. Zhao Feng is able to suppress Yunhu with his profound body-strengthening force alone…. King Lu Yun sighed. He saw the part where Huang Yunhu tried to counterattack and kick Zhao Feng, but Zhao Feng's body wasn't injured, and he didn't even move.
That meant that Zhao Feng's speed, strength, and defense were all at a peak. King Lu Yun even realized that Zhao Feng was acting very casual, as if he still wasn't using his full power.
"This Zhao Feng is very strong." Liu Tianfan's face was solemn, but strong battle-intent appeared in his eyes.
After the fight, only Zhao Feng, Liu Tianfan, and a small number of people were able to keep their victory streaks.
Some people had even been eliminated already. To be eliminated, one needed to lose seven fights in a row or twenty in total.
The disciples on the southern stage were awaiting the fight between Liu Tianfan and Zhao Feng. As more disciples were eliminated, the chance of those two meeting became higher.
Finally, Zhao Feng met Liu Tianfan on the thirtieth fight.
Everyone within the secret realm, including the two Kings, watched with interest.
Liu Tianfan has reached the peak Great Origin Core Realm, and I can't use my Intent or my eye-bloodline…. Zhao Feng felt troubled for the first time.

Chapter 788 - Mutated Imperial Dao Bloodline
Without using some secret techniques, the chance of Zhao Feng winning against the peak Great Origin Core Realm Liu Tianfan was very low.
The difference between the early-stage Small Origin Core Realm and the peak Great origin Core Realm was huge. There was a total of six small stages between them. Under normal situations, it would already be a miracle if Zhao Feng wasn't defeated immediately.
"Zhao Feng, I'm not underestimating you, but you will not be able to win." Liu Tianfan's eyes glinted with battle-intent; he was completely confident in himself, but he wouldn't underestimate his opponent either.
"Start!" The judge waved his hand.
Shua!
As soon as the judge spoke, Zhao Feng turned into an arc of lightning.
"What speed!" the spectators exclaimed.
The speed that Zhao Feng was currently displaying was even faster than when he fought Huang Yunhu. Just as King Lu Yun thought, Zhao Feng was holding back during that fight.
"Open!" Liu Tianfan stood motionless and punched to the side without even looking.
Bam!
The punch brought a flaming purple light that instantly covered the stage. The nearby disciples all felt unable to breathe.
Boom!
A silver-blue figure covered in Water of Wind Lightning was smashed by Liu Tianfan's fist, and a terrifying shockwave swept across the stage. Liu Tianfan didn't move while Zhao Feng was pushed back by two hundred yards and was still flying backward.
"Defeated in one move?"
The experts in the secret realm all glanced toward the southern stage.
Just as Zhao Feng was about to fly out of bounds, a pair of dream-like Wings of Wind and Lightning formed behind Zhao Feng's back.
Hu~~
The Wings of Wind and Lightning quickly fluttered, and Zhao Feng moved forward.
That brat wasn't even injured by that blow just now…. Liu Tianfan's expression changed slightly.
If Zhao Feng only cultivated the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique, he would have been severely injured by a blow from a peak Great Origin Core Realm. However, he also cultivated the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body, which gave him monstrous physical strength, battle-power, and defense. His Water bloodline and his Water of Wind Lightning could quickly heal his injuries as well.
"Body of Sacred Lightning!" Zhao Feng roared as a metallic silver-blue light started to glow around him.
In an instant, he became bigger, and he radiated a physical force that seemed to actually materialize. One could faintly see a half-transparent glow of silver-blue lightning in the air.
Boom!
Zhao Feng charged down from the sky with destructive power.
"What a powerful body!" Liu Tianfan felt his body become heavy and his blood become pressured. He had to use his True Yuan to protect his organs.
On top of that, Zhao Feng's physical force contained a sensation of lightning. Not only did Liu Tianfan feel a huge pressure, his body even became slightly numb.
"Who is Zhao Feng's master? Which Emperor has such a profound body-strengthening technique…?" The two Void God Realm Kings were stunned. Even the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan was unable to find such a body-strengthening technique.
Ha!
Zhao Feng seemed to have the body of a demonic beast, and he charged down with a roar as a Wind Lightning dragon wrapped around his arm.
Bam~~~~
The dark blue Wind Lightning dragon clashed with Liu Tianfan. Because he came down from the sky with the Wings of Wind and Lightning propelling him, the power reached a limit.
"Extreme Purple!"
Dominating beams of purple shot out in every direction amidst the storm of wind and lightning.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Hundreds and thousands of purple beams shot out at every angle. At this moment, the stage was covered in countless beams of purple. The two figures clashed heavily amidst the purple light and Wind Lightning storm.
In the first clash, Zhao Feng managed to push Liu Tianfan a step back due to his initial charge, but in the second clash, the power of Extreme Purple forced Zhao Feng back dozens of yards.
"Ice Imperial Spear!"
A layer of ice-blue liquid covered Zhao Feng's body and formed a suit of icy armor. This icy armor continuously rippled as it shifted around his body.
Boom! Boom! Bam!
The purple beams, which were able to severely injure Small Origin Core Realms, turned into smoke when they hit Zhao Feng's body. With the help of the Ice-Water bloodline and the Water of Wind Lightning, the armor formed by the Ice Imperial Spear could not only defend, it could also use the power of lightning to attack. Adding on the defense of the Sacred Lightning Body, Liu Tianfan's wide-area offense was unable to threaten Zhao Feng.
Whoosh!
The pair of wings behind Zhao Feng fluttered as he quickly flew into the sky and dove back down again, putting on a good show. The disciples sighed as they watched, and even the judge overseeing the southern stage was dazed, requiring the main judge to personally oversee it.
"It's hard to imagine that Zhao Feng has the ability to control the match. He's putting the advantage in location to its best," King Lu Yun sighed.
"Unfortunately, due to the large difference in cultivation, Zhao Feng won't be able to gain any advantage in a head-on clash," the other King sighed. It was already a miracle that Zhao Feng could reach this step.
Liu Tianfan had a solemn expression, and he was extremely frustrated. He was pretty fast in his own right, and with his advantage in cultivation, he wasn't any slower than Zhao Feng, but Zhao Feng's techniques and agility were too profound. He even seemed to understand the laws of Space, and he used the power of his Sacred Body with every charge. If he was fighting in the air as well, Liu Tianfan wouldn't even be able to touch Zhao Feng; instead, he would reveal some flaws for Zhao Feng to attack.
Looks like it'll be very hard to defeat Liu Tianfan without using my Eye Intent or my eye-bloodline.
Zhao Feng had to use a lot of True Yuan to fly through the air. If the fight dragged on, he would definitely lose. The Ice-Water bloodline power was being used up the quickest due to the armor and the healing.
Right at this moment, the other bloodline started to burn.
Let's try it.
Zhao Feng's ice armor merged back into his body.
Hu~~~
A red flame started to spread across Zhao Feng's body as if he was undergoing rebirth through flames. Adding on the glow from his Sacred Lightning Body, he looked like a flaming demonic sovereign.
Pa!
Zhao Feng's wings flapped as he charged down and punched out. Zhao Feng felt extremely satisfied with this punch, and a flame erupted before his attack even arrived.
"What kind of bloodline is this?" Liu Tianfan's body felt hot. The bloodline was extremely dominating, and it even eroded his blood and flesh. Zhao Feng's Sacred Body was even able to direct this bloodline power straight into the target's body.
The Wings of Wind and Lightning pushed the speed of this attack to a maximum. Zhao Feng's body was surrounded by a layer of Wind Lightning that could attack and defend at the same time.
Boom!
The clash this time was different from before. The one that was forced to retreat was Liu Tianfan.
Boom!
Zhao Feng was like a flaming demonic sovereign, and his power reached a terrifying stage. His every attack would burn and erode the opponent.
"Purple Flames Protection!" Liu Tianfan was starting to go all out now, and a dark purple flaming armor covered his body, dramatically increasing his offense and defense as he clashed with Zhao Feng.
All of the spectators held their breath.
"What is that red bloodline of Zhao Feng's? It's so strong!"
Everyone was surprised. Zhao Feng's bloodline was much stronger than Liu Tianfan's; it was like an emperor that ruled over everything.
"It's similar to the Blood Demon Sun bloodline, ranked 81st among the Imperial Dao bloodlines, but it seems more unique; it contains the aura of a Ten Thousand Ancient Races bloodline."
"Could the Blood Demon Sun bloodline have mutated or evolved in Zhao Feng's body?"
King Lu Yun discussed with the other King.
"Imperial Dao bloodline" referred to the top five hundred bloodlines across the continent zone and areas nearby. These bloodlines were different from the Ten Thousand Ancient Races.
"Imperial Dao bloodline!" Kong Feiling over on the eastern stage felt her bloodline tremble slightly, and she finally understood why she sensed Zhao Feng earlier. She felt that the aura from Zhao Feng's Imperial Dao bloodline was purer and stronger than hers.
As the fight continued, Liu Tianfan's lifeforce was starting to become burned and eroded. Each and every one of Zhao Feng's attacks could damage part of Liu Tianfan's essence. Although Zhao Feng's True Yuan was being used up very quickly, Liu Tianfan's injuries were several times worse than his.
"Stop!" King Lu Yun roared as a Magnificent Power descended and stopped the fight.
The fight ended as a draw.
Zhao Feng has a mutated Imperial Dao bloodline. If he had a cultivation of the Great Origin Core Realm or even just the peak-stage Small Origin Core Realm, I would've lost. Liu Tianfan let out a breath.
If Zhao Feng only had the Imperial Dao bloodline, it wouldn't be much. The issue was that he also had two other techniques – the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body and the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique – which were both monstrous.
After taking over a new body, Zhao Feng trained in the most profound techniques, and he would be able to go much further than before.
"I need to ask about this Imperial Dao bloodline after returning to the Zhao Family later," Zhao Feng murmured.
The original Zhao Feng was an orphan that was raised by his grandfather.
Several days later, the first part of the Divine Illusion Trials came to an end.
The four arenas each proceeded until there was only fifty people left. The arenas then combined, and those top two hundred fought until sixty remained.
Zhao Feng was unmatched in the final fights. The battle-power he displayed was comparable to the top three Core disciples, and anyone that met him admitted defeat right away.
As long as he didn't meet Kong Feiling, Zhao Feng wasn't worried.
After the next portion started, Liu Tianfan met the first-ranked Kong Feiling after dozens of continuous victories.

Chapter 789 - Admitting Defeat Right Away
Liu Tianfan was extremely cautious as he faced Kong Feiling.
As soon as the fight started:
"Purple Flame Protection!"
A dark purple flaming armor covered Liu Tianfan's body and radiated a fierce light. Maybe it was because the opponent was so strong, but the battle-power that Liu Tianfan displayed right at the beginning surpassed what he had when he fought Zhao Feng.
Whoosh!
With a flash of multi-colored light, Kong Feiling took an elegant step forward and closed in on Liu Tianfan. Although it seemed slow, it was actually even faster than Zhao Feng's Wings of Wind and Lightning.
Weng~~
A multi-colored light shot out from Kong Feiling's fingertips and blossomed like a flower as it landed on Liu Tianfan.
Hu~
After using the Purple Flame Protection, Liu Tianfan thrust out both his fists and launched two intertwined purple dragons made of fire. The temperature was enough to turn a normal Small Origin Core Realm into ashes.
"Looks like Liu Tianfan didn't use his full strength when he fought me," Zhao Feng murmured. At the end of the day, Liu Tianfan's cultivation surpassed his by too much. Zhao Feng only did as well as he did because his agility and various secret techniques had limited Liu Tianfan's abilities.
Crack!
The sound of the stage cracking could be heard, and Liu Tianfan roared as he retreated. The purple flaming armor on his body was shattered by a casual blow from Kong Feiling.
Kong Feiling was extremely elegant and patient. She waved her jade hands, and brilliant images shot out. These images released mysterious and noble flames that showed signs of materializing.
Wah!
Within three moves, Liu Tianfan spat out a mouthful of blood.
"The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan's number one Core disciple lives up to her title."
"Kong Feiling hasn't even used her Imperial Dao bloodline and yet she's still able to crush Liu Tianfan."
Chaos broke out amongst the spectators, and most of the disciples were stunned by Kong Feiling's strength.
"Apart from not using her Imperial Dao bloodline, Kong Feiling hasn't even used her full strength." Zhao Feng saw more than just the surface, just like when he fought with Huang Yunhu.
"It's over Liu Tianfan. You haven't improved much." Kong Feiling laughed lightly. As soon as she finished speaking, a half-step King Intent engulfed the area.
Boom!
Kong Feiling's body was covered by a seven-colored light that was dozens of yards wide.
"That's Kong Feiling's Imperial Dao bloodline?" Zhao Feng was surprised.
Peng!
Liu Tianfan's body was sent flying off the stage like a crumpled ball of paper, and he spat out mouthfuls of blood.
"Kong Feiling wins!" the judge announced. There was no doubt about who the victor would be from the start. If Kong Feiling had gone all out right away, Liu Tianfan wouldn't have even lasted one move.
Kong Feiling is ranked 298th on the Imperial Genius rankings. Zhao Feng's memories contained this information.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan had the foundation of a three-star sect, so the Head disciple wasn't weaker than some three-star forces.
Of the people on the Imperial Genius rankings, the weakest were Great Origin Core Realms. From this, one could see how strong Luo Zun was for him to be ranked in the top one hundred.
As time passed, more and more disciples were eliminated. From two hundred to one hundred and fifty, from one hundred and fifty to one hundred. There were fewer and fewer people participating, which meant that the possibility of Zhao Feng and Kong Feiling meeting was increasing.
According to the rules, those that hadn't fought with each other before were more likely to be paired up.
Two days before the Divine Illusion Trials ended, Zhao Feng matched with Kong Feiling.
"I'm very interested in your strength." Kong Feiling smiled.
Before the trials started, she tried to probe Zhao Feng with her half-step King Intent, but it was like a stone being dropped into the ocean. She felt that Zhao Feng hadn't used his true strength when fighting Liu Tianfan.
"I admit defeat," Zhao Feng said and jumped off the stage.
This made Kong Feiling feel like she had been choked, and she stomped her foot on the ground.
The spectators were all surprised as well. According to the norm, since Zhao Feng had the strength to become one of the top three Core disciples, he should exchange a few moves with Kong Feiling regardless of whether he could win or not. However, Zhao Feng admitted defeat directly?
The two Kings also let out regretful expressions. They could tell that Zhao Feng had some sort of secret and probably couldn't reveal it.
The more it was as such, the more curious others would be.
"Hmph, I'll wait till the Divine Illusion Dimension then. Let's see your secrets there." Kong Feiling harrumphed coldly and walked off the stage with disappointment.
She was unrivalled among the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. The only one she couldn't see through was Zhao Feng, but he didn't want to fight with her. This made her angry and helpless.
The Divine Illusion Trials ended two days later. After twenty or so days of elimination, the sixty spots were finally decided.
Zhao Feng didn't see Senior Martial Sister Wan amongst them. However, with her early-stage True Lord Rank cultivation, it wasn't a surprise that she didn't make it through.
His gaze scanned over the other fifty-nine disciples. They were all at least at the half-step Origin Core Realm. Huang Yunhu and Senior Martial Brother Guang were amongst them.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The disciples that had passed the trials all left the secret realm. As for the ones that had been eliminated earlier, they already left long ago.
A total of sixty elite disciples appeared in the valley.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao, congratulations on passing the Divine Illusion Trials. You need to grasp this chance well." Senior Martial Sister Wan was waiting in the valley. Although she was disappointed about her loss, she was happy for Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng sighed in his heart. In order to hide some of his secrets, he had used the heart controlling technique to make Senior Martial Sister Wan think highly of him, but now she was liking him more by the day. After all, she was witnessing the rise of this handsome youth, who had now become a bright star. However, she knew the difference between herself and Zhao Feng would only become bigger.
"There's still one month till the Divine Illusion Dimension opens. Go back and prepare. Read about the Divine Illusion Dimension as well," the two Kings said before leaving.
Every disciple that had passed the Divine Illusion Trials received information regarding the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Zhao Feng also got received it, but he shook his head in disappointment when he read it. It was obvious that Duke Nanfeng's information was far better.
Zhao Feng could imagine the disciples of Kings and Emperors getting more information, but he had already learned everything he could from the Duke's information. As Duke Nanfeng had said, they probably hadn't even mapped one tenth of the Divine Illusion Dimension.
"There's still a month left. I can use this time to raise my cultivation," Zhao Feng murmured, then entered seclusion when he got back.
For the next month, Zhao Feng cultivated with the help of sufficient resources.
A month later, his cultivation had broken through to the middle stages of the Small Origin Core Realm.
Zhao Feng's mastery of the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique became better as well, but he was now stuck at the peak fifth level, unable to enter the sixth.
"My cultivation is restricting my progress in the Wind Lightning Technique," Zhao Feng murmured.
If his cultivation was at the Great Origin Core Realm or even just the peak stage of the Small Origin Core Realm, he might've reached the sixth level of the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique.
During this one month, he didn't stop cultivating his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body, and he started to taste the benefits of a powerful body. A powerful body meant that he could ignore the opponent's Intents, bloodline, and cultivation.
The child Demigod was the same way back then. When the child Demigod was a King, his physical force was able to suppress the Emperor of Death's body, and Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body was even stronger than the Golden Kun Sacred Body.
Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body contained the element of Lightning, and when it reached a certain level, anything that his body passed would be destroyed by lightning. Zhao Feng wouldn't even need to do anything; anyone that attacked him would turn to dust.
When the five elements of Wind Lightning were cultivated, the Sacred Lightning Body would be extremely resilient against any elemental attack as well. However, since Zhao Feng had only cultivated the Water of Wind Lightning at the moment, he was only somewhat resilient against ice and water.
As a Sacred Lightning Body, it was also extremely resilient against lightning, and it could even absorb lightning. Back then, Lei Zhen from the Ten Thousand Thunder Sect was able to absorb Zhao Feng's lightning attacks.
"Once the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body is trained to a high level, my chance of passing the God Tribulation will increase dramatically." Zhao Feng was full of confidence and expectation for the future.
Time passed by quickly, and the day of the Divine Illusion Dimension's opening was approaching.
Zhao Feng stopped cultivating during the last few days and entered the Ancient Dream Realm to absorb more of its aura. The purity of his bloodline slowly increased.
The night before the Divine Illusion Dimension opened, a hundred elite disciples were waiting quietly on a pitch-black stage in the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan.
"The Divine Illusion Dimension is connecting with the borders of the continent zone."
"The time of connection might be a bit early or late."
The elites discussed, and Zhao Feng saw that there were thirty-five elder experts amongst the one hundred. The weird thing was that there was even a Void God Realm King who was fifty or sixty years old.
Zhao Feng guessed that the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan had some method to send in a Void God Realm King, but they would need to pay a price.
"Some forces, including the imperials, should have successfully connected to it already. As we are near the ocean, we are one day slower."
Several figures covered in magnificent light discussed.

Chapter 790 - The World
In a palace in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty:
Weng~~
A shining white pathway suddenly appeared on top of a large circle, and it seemed to exist between reality and nothingness.
"The Divine Illusion Dimension has been successfully connected," a powerful voice resounded across Heaven and Earth, shaking the hearts of dozens of Kings and several Emperors.
"Number one, Xuanyuan Wen."
A handsome youth who looked slightly shy appeared in front of the shining white pathway. However, the several hundred disciples and elites of the Sky Suspension Palace didn't dare to underestimate him, and their eyes were full of respect.
Xuanyuan Wen and two disciples behind him, a male and female, were Void God Realm Kings.
"Martial brothers and sisters, I'll be going fist." Xuanyuan Wen was extremely polite and bowed to everyone.
"Master, I won't disappoint you." Finally, he glanced at a skinny, wrinkled elder in the sky – he was a Demigod. The aura of the elder was extremely mundane, as if he was just a mortal.
Boom!
Cracks instantly started to appear on the pathway when Xuanyuan Wen stepped into it.
"Well, Xuanyuan Wen isn't a normal King. He's probably exceeded the limit of the pathway."
"Any other three-star force wouldn't dare to do this."
The nearby Kings and Emperors discussed. Under normal situations, someone with the same strength as Xuanyuan Wen would be ripped into pieces if they forcefully entered the pathway.
Right at this critical moment:
Weng~~~~
A weird piece of jade on Xuanyuan Wen's body released a brilliant glow of white light that dissolved the ripping force of space.
"Ancient God piece!"
Exclamations sounded.
As a forgotten dimension of Gods, only the power of Gods could resist the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Shua!
Using the help of the Ancient God weapon piece, Xuanyuan Wen disappeared into the portal.
"The only weakness of this method is that the person will be transported to a random spot, not with any of his allies," a Void God Realm Emperor murmured.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The male and female Void God Realm Kings behind Xuanyuan Wen used their own methods and entered the Divine Illusion Dimension as well.
Elsewhere in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty, in the Duanmu Family, a green pathway could be seen in the air above a lake.
"Yufei, are you ready? The danger and fortune contained within the Divine Illusion Dimension is much more plentiful than the Demigod Forgotten Garden," Duanmu Qing smiled and said.
Below the pathway were the elites of the family, and the leader of the group was a young girl who looked like a goddess. Her skin was snow-white like a perfect work of art.
"I'm ready," Zhao Yufei smiled, and her beauty made everyone sigh.
She slowly walked toward the green pathway, and it didn't shake or tremble at all.
"Incredible, she can enter the pathway so easily even with a cultivation of the Void God Realm."
"This girl indeed has the bloodline of the Spiritual Race. The Duanmu Family will revive…!"
The seniors of the Duanmu Family were excited. With the Duanmu Family's strength, they could only send in one King at most, but Zhao Yufei was able to save them one slot.
"The Spiritual Race has a very close affinity with Heaven and Earth. Yufei will be able to become an Emperor soon."
Duanmu Qing sent Zhao Yufei away with hope in his eyes.
In the Cang Ocean, in the True Martial Sacred Land, above the Ten Thousand Ancient Sacred Peak, nearly three hundred elites of the True Mystic Sacred Clan and the Thousand Darkness Sacred Clan gathered here.
"The time of connection here is a couple days later than the continent zone. We still have a few days till it connects."
"With the combined strength of the three-star sects, we can only manage to send two Kings in… Nan Gongsheng and Meng Xi."
The upper echelons of the two clans discussed.
The fact that the Divine Illusion Dimension was able to connect to so many places showed how big it was. Putting aside the continent zone, even the nearby ocean forces were able to enter as long as they were strong enough.
However, since the Cang Ocean was so far away, only the three-star forces had the ability to do so, even though some two-star forces on the continent zone could connect to it.
This meant that everyone that entered the Divine Illusion Dimension was an elite of the continent zone or a nearby area.
There was almost no inheritance or secret realm on the same scale as the Divine Illusion Dimension.
On a pitch-black stage of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, the disciples and older elites were all waiting.
"Maybe some of the forces on the continent zone have already connected, but we still need to wait a bit," Liu Tianfan smiled and said as he stood next to Zhao Feng.
The two had fought to a "draw" in the Divine Illusion Trials. Liu Tianfan didn't become angry or embarrassed; instead, he tried to befriend Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng liked how Liu Tianfan was not arrogant or impatient, and he understood some things about the lord dynasty from him.
"The Great Gan Lord Dynasty, the Dark Moon Lord Dynasty, and nearby areas – including the four-star forces – will all send their elites into the Divine Illusion Dimension." Liu Tianfan sighed.
The weakest forces connecting to the dimension were two-star sects. Amongst all the superpowers, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan was extremely small in comparison, and Zhao Feng realized just how big the Divine Illusion Dimension was. In comparison, the inheritances and secret realms he had entered before were nothing.
A King started to tell them what to watch out for before entering.
First were the dangerous aspects:
"…apart from that, don't easily offend three-star forces or anyone stronger, such as the imperials, the Eight Big Families, or the four-star superpowers," the King warned.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan wasn't a three-star power anymore. The strength of disciples from three-star and four-star powers wasn't something a two-star force could be compared to. Even if they had the same cultivation, the difference in strength amongst geniuses was big.
Taking a step back, even if they somehow managed to kill an imperial or an important elite disciple of a four-star power, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan would be destroyed.
"Of course, there aren't many three-star or four-star forces. Most of those you will meet will come from two-star forces…."
The King paused.
Three-star forces were rare even in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty. As for four-star forces, the possibility of meeting them was extremely low.
Around a day later, a weird spatial disturbance appeared above the pitch-black stage. If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Feng's senses were so strong, he might not have sensed it.
"We can connect now."
The hearts of the Void God Realm Kings shook and a faint golden pathway seemed to connect to the other side.
"Yun Hao, are you ready?"
Several Void God Realm Kings and one Emperor looked at the leading person.
Yun Hao was an elite older disciple.
The Divine Illusion Trials were split into two parts – the older and younger generation. This Yun Hao was around fifty or sixty, but he had a cultivation of the Void God Realm. It was obvious that he was talented, and the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan was focusing on him.
"Senior Yun Hao, please look after us."
Some younger disciples were extremely respectful toward Yun Hao.
Kong Feiling and Yun Hao were the two elite geniuses of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. Kong Feiling, who had an Imperial Dao bloodline, wasn't much weaker than a Void God Realm King.
The first to enter was Yun Hao. At this moment, some King Elders of the clan were watching with nervous expressions.
Hu~~
Yun Hao took a deep breath and took a step into the golden pathway.
Crack!
The faint golden pathway instantly started to become unstable the moment he stepped in.
"Stabilize the array!"
A Void God Realm Emperor and eight Kings combined forces and stabilized the pathway a little bit.
Cold sweat appeared on Yun Hao's forehead as he increased his speed through the golden pathway. As he was about to reach the end of the faint golden pathway, the expressions of the Emperor and eight Kings went white. It seemed as if they had used up a lot of energy.
Right when everyone thought Yun Hao was about to succeed:
"Arghh!"
Yun Hao suddenly screamed as he was cut into countless pieces by a spatial crack. The spatial crack looked like a spider web, and it released a forbidden aura.
Sii!
Everyone from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, both elders and youngsters, were stunned and took in cold breaths.
The stage was dead-silent for a long time.
"Failed… Yun Hao was too unlucky."
"In the end, Ten Thousand Sacred Clan isn't a three-star force anymore."
Regretful sighs sounded.
The higher one's cultivation, the smaller the chance of success. The only exceptions were if a clan was extremely strong or had geniuses with special bloodlines like the Spiritual Race or Nan Gongsheng's Spatial Spirit Body.
A long time later, the array on the black stage activated once more and continued to send people through.
The second person to go through was Kong Feiling. Kong Feiling was at the half-step King level, and she managed to disappear at the end of the pathway.
"Luckily, Kong Feiling is fine."
The experts of the clan all let out a long breath. Without a doubt, Kong Feiling – who had an Imperial Dao bloodline – had more potential.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Disciples one after another disappeared into the pathway and no repeat of Yun Hao happened.
At a certain point, it was Zhao Feng's turn.
The strength of my soul is not normal…. Zhao Feng was slightly worried. With his middle-stage Small Origin Core Realm cultivation, there should be nothing to worry about, but the pathway was also related to soul-strength.
Shua!
Zhao Feng concealed his power the best he could and carefully stepped onto the pathway. However, when he reached the halfway point, Zhao Feng felt the pathway tremble slightly, and his heart rose to his throat.

Chapter 791 - Entering the Divine Illusion Dimension
When one reached the Void God Realm, their souls would evolve to contain immense power.
The spatial pathway could only withstand a certain amount of strength, physical or soul-based. When either exceeded the limit, the pathway would be unable to withstand it.
My soul has the same strength as normal Void God Realm Kings, and it might even be slightly stronger.
Zhao Feng could feel the pathway slightly trembling, and it was even stronger than when Kong Feiling walked through it. It had almost reached the same level as when Yun Hao was ripped apart by the spatial cracks. Would he be a repeat of Yun Hao?
Zhao Feng's heart tightened, and he even got ready for his God's Eye to leave his body. No matter what, preserving his life came first, but luckily, the shaking sensation only came close to that level without ever reaching it.
The pathway was more inclined toward physical power, and Void God Realm Kings had formed a True Yuan Dimension, which contained incredible physical power. Zhao Feng's True Yuan cultivation was only at the middle stages of the Small Origin Core Realm, and for once, he felt glad that his cultivation wasn't high.
In fact, the elites of some forces would purposely not break through to the Void God Realm in order to enter the Divine Illusion Dimension, then break through when they entered it. This would reduce the risk to the minimum.
Whoosh!
Zhao Feng felt his body and soul become heavy when he appeared. An ancient pressure filled the air; it was an aura that had experienced the vicissitudes of the Ancient Era and the Immemorial Era.
Zhao Feng felt as if he had entered the Ancient Dream Realm. The pressure in this place surpassed the Demigod Forgotten Garden.
It was dark, but it didn't affect their vision; limitless golden mud and dust filled their eyes.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Disciples and elites of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan appeared around Zhao Feng, and a total of ninety-nine people appeared.
"Everyone, gather over here." Kong Feiling started to gather the members with the help of some older elites.
Under normal situations, people that entered through the same pathway would appear around the same area. For example, those from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan would appear around the same exact spot, and the other forces of the Tianfeng Great Island Zone would be relatively close to each other. However, including the Duke's Palace, there were only a couple forces in the area that were able to connect to the Divine Illusion Dimension.
"Old Fei, where are we within the Divine Illusion Dimension?" Kong Feiling asked.
As of right now, her strength was amongst the top of everyone present, but she wasn't as experienced as the older elites.
Old Fei was the most experienced; he had entered the Divine Illusion Dimension before. Although he didn't receive much, he had successfully survived both times and gathered a lot of experience.
"I can't confirm our position right now. The Divine Illusion Dimension is too big. It's possible that we have entered an unknown area."
Old Fei's face was full of wrinkles. His cultivation had reached the half-step King level, and he could easily defeat others of the same rank.
The group from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan then started to scout around. All types of senses were restricted in the Divine Illusion Dimension due to the pressure, and anyone below the Void God Realm was unable to fly. Even half-step Kings were only able to leap into the air momentarily. Therefore, it was extremely hard to scout the area, and no one could see the end.
In just a short while, some disciples that went scouting started to fight with unknown animals.
Ceng! Ceng! Ceng!
The elites of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan went to help after hearing this news, and Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye looked into the distance.
Several large rats with sharp teeth and red eyes were fighting with the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. The bodies of these sharp-toothed rats were extremely tough, and the attacks of normal True Lord Ranks were unable to critically damage them.
Only when an Origin Core Realm elder arrived did they manage to kill one of the rats. The other rats screamed and went back into their sand holes.
"This sharp-toothed rat is an old race, and their skin and teeth are rare materials in the outside world," the Origin Core Realm elder said with joy.
The elites of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan met more rat-type animals. Each group had three to five people, and there was a Great Origin Core Realm Sovereign Lord guarding each area, so nothing bad happened.
Zhao Feng and Liu Tianfan were in the same group, and they also fought some rats.
Hmm? Zhao Feng suddenly sensed something and couldn't help but look down.
"Watch out!" Liu Tianfan roared as a surge of dark purple flame thundered toward the rocks below.
With a Boom!, the members of this group used the force to retreat dozens of yards.
The next instant, a scream sounded from the sand as a large black scorpion rose from the ground. The black scorpion was longer than a dozen yards, and it gave off a metallic feeling. Its tail and claws glinted with a poisonous and cold light.
Sii!
Everyone couldn't help but take a cold breath. With that blow just now, only a faint scratch was left behind on the carapace.
"Watch out! That scorpion is venomous." Liu Tianfan took out an Earth-grade long sword and slashed toward the scorpion.
Dang!
The giant scorpion used its claws to block the sword.
Peng!
The powerful force actually pushed Liu Tianfan back a couple steps.
In a one-versus-one situation, the chance of Liu Tianfan winning was really low; the best choice would be to run away. However, the Divine Illusion Dimension was about teamwork. Only some elites whose strength had reached the Void God Realm had the ability to move alone.
"Ha!" Zhao Feng roared, and a silver-blue metallic light appeared around his body as he thrust out his fist.
Boom!
An enormous physical force landed on the black scorpion, but the scorpion was extremely tough; it only shook a little and slowed down.
However, that wasn't Zhao Feng's entire move. He pointed out with his finger, and waves of Water of Wind Lightning charged toward the black scorpion.
Shu~~
A numbing sensation limited the black scorpion's speed.
Bam! Bam!
With the combined forces of physical strength and Water of Wind Lightning, Zhao Feng was able to restrict the black scorpion. He was extremely fast, and he had a profound Intent; the black scorpion's attacks were unable to land on Zhao Feng.
Ten breaths later, Zhao Feng and Liu Tianfan managed to gain the upper hand, but the scorpion's defense was rather strong, and it wasn't severely injured.
Several Origin Core Realm elders who were experienced in fighting arrived and easily took care of the black scorpion.
"Looks like the elderly are wiser," Liu Tianfan sighed.
Most of the older generation had cultivations at the Great Origin Core Realm and were proficient in fighting.
The black scorpion wasn't even able to run away due to the help of the older elites.
"The battle-power of these older elites is very high." Zhao Feng nodded his head and estimated that the combined sixty-plus juniors wouldn't be a match for the thirty or so seniors.
In the limitless sand, the forces of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan trudged forward, and some experts took out their steeds. Some land pets were better suited for this environment, and due to the pressure of the dimension and the sandstorms, flying pets were unsuitable anyway.
Therefore, Zhao Feng didn't summon the Yinming Bird, and he started to pay attention to whether there were any suitable steeds in the area.
Half a day later, the clouds in the air became unusually calm, and they didn't see any animals anymore.
"Wait!" Old Fei suddenly raised his hand.
"The weather is very bad. I've lived in the desert before when doing a mission for the clan. If I'm correct, a large sandstorm will arrive soon." Old Fei's eyebrows furrowed.
Sandstorm?
The expressions of the clan's elites all changed dramatically. If it was a normal sandstorm in the outside world, they wouldn't put it in their eyes, but the Divine Illusion Dimension was very highly ranked, and no one here could fly.
The power of this natural disaster was not to be underestimated. Just by looking at the fact that there were no beasts or animals around proved that.
"Old Fei, what should we do?" Kong Feiling asked.
"There's no suitable place for us to hide and evade the sandstorm. The only thing we can do is find some high ground and form an array there," Old Fei said, and his suggestion was soon approved.
They went to find a high ground and construct a defensive array.
Ceng! Ceng! Ceng!
The disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan started to move quickly. A while later, the group soon found a mountain and started to construct a defensive array there.
With the help of Old Fei, they managed to build an Earth-elemental array that formed a rocky room and covered everyone.
An hour later, the sky became dark as a sandstorm engulfed everything in sight.
Weng~~
The Earth-elemental array shook slightly, and its light dimmed a bit. Everyone quickly put in more Primal Crystal Stones and used their True Yuan.
"The power of this sandstorm is stronger than I thought. Anyone below the half-step King level will be unable to survive in the sandstorm," Old Fei said with a solemn tone, and everyone let out a breath. Just a natural disaster in the Divine Illusion Dimension was already so dangerous.
If only a couple elites were here, they would be unable to do anything.
Zhao Feng sat down within the array and cultivated quietly with closed eyes.
Every time the Divine Illusion Dimension opened, it would only stay open for several months, and it never exceeded half a year.
Although this was a forgotten place, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi here was much stronger than the outside world. More importantly, this place contained rare resources, but the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan didn't seem to be very lucky; the place they connected to was a desolate desert.
This storm lasted for an entire day and night.
Finally, the sandstorm faded, and the mountain they were on was engulfed by sand.
Boom! Boom!
Several older experts pushed the sand away and opened a pathway.
After seeing the sky again, they were in a daze. They couldn't believe what they saw around them.

Chapter 792 - Underground World
On the mountain, the group of people looked around and were dazed by what they saw, including Zhao Feng.
After the sandstorm, the mountain they were on was the only peak standing amidst a large hole. The feeling of solitude was extreme.
The sand had been blown away by the sandstorm, and the area around them had turned into an abyss. The cold blowing of the wind made the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan hiccup.
"Look!"
"That is…!?"
Some disciples' gazes locked onto the ground, and they could see some blurry structures.
Hmm? Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye could see further; there was a small amount of buildings below. Furthermore, it wasn't sand below them anymore, but black mud.
"Could it be…?" Zhao Feng had some guesses and used his God's Spiritual Eye to look further.
At the same moment, all of the disciples from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan started to inspect the abyss below them.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Kong Feiling and Old Fei, two half-step Kings, leapt into the air. The other members all went down and started to search for tracks.
"There's an entrance here!" An exclamation sounded and caught everyone's attention.
Several disciples were standing in front of a palace-wall-like structure, and a long pathway could be seen underground.
"Underground path? People have found underground cities and seas in the Divine Illusion Dimension before." Old Fei's eyes twinkled.
However, everyone's senses were heavily restricted in the Divine Illusion Dimension. Even the mud and buildings could limit their senses. Only Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye could see what was below.
"It should be an underground city," Zhao Feng spoke, and everyone agreed with him.
The pathway went underground, and the mud was slightly wet. One could even see small insects.
"This place won't be covered by sand right away."
The group started to discuss, and the majority agreed to go down and scout it out. The group followed the pathway and went down.
There were some pearls in the pathway that gave off a faint light, and the sounds of roaring and biting sounded from the depths.
The group finally reached the end after a long journey. The ground beneath their feet was dark green, and there were signs of humans altering the landscape.
The material of the underground city was extremely tough, and due to the Divine Illusion Dimension itself, even the strongest blow of a True Lord Rank could only leave behind a faint scratch on the ground.
Maybe because they hadn't been used in a long time, many places in the underground city were dark. However, it wasn't hard to see that this city had been worked on extensively. The field, fountain, stores, and houses had everything they needed. It wasn't any worse than any other city.
"Old Fei, I feel a disturbance of pure Yuan Qi from underground." Kong Feiling, who was in a beautiful dress, closed her eyes. Amongst the people present, she had the highest cultivation and the most powerful bloodline; she was the strongest one in their group.
The group used their senses to scout around after hearing Kong Feiling's warning.
"You're right." Old Fei, two other half-step Kings, and several peak Great Origin Core Realms felt the same feeling, and Zhao Feng revealed a weird expression as his left eye gazed in a certain direction.
"Yuan Qi disturbance? It's more than just that…." Zhao Feng's soul was the strongest amongst the people present and, with the help of the God's Spiritual Eye, his senses were the clearest.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat appeared on his shoulder and threw several old coins into the air, causing them to clatter.
Old Fei and several older experts led the way while Kong Feiling followed closely behind as they headed toward the place where they sensed the disturbance in Yuan Qi.
However, the journey wasn't peaceful. Before they walked even a hundred yards, pairs of green eyes and wolf-like howling sounds appeared.
Ceng! Ceng!
With a flash of lightning, more than a dozen wolf-like humanoids charged out from a corner.
"Watch out! It's a mutated type of human – wolfmen!" Old Fei warned as the two sides clashed.
Wolfmen were unaffected by the darkness, and their senses were not affected by the buildings and mud. On top of that, they were very agile.
Some disciples were killed by the wolfmen before they even managed to react. Luckily, the older elites were experienced, and Old Fei quickly killed a few wolfmen.
Old Fei and company knew a bit about the wolfmen, but the other disciples weren't as experienced.
"Arghh!"
A half-step Origin Core Realm disciple's shoulder was ripped apart by a wolfman's claw, and he screamed out in pain.
The wolfmen were extremely fast, their claws were sharp, and they were stronger in the dim environment.
Ceng! Ceng! Ceng!
These wolfmen left several bodies behind with their ambush, then quickly retreated into the complex underground city.
"These wolfmen are extremely cunning, and they specialize in teamwork and ambushing. They were only testing us just now," Old Fei warned.
The battle a moment ago was just the wolfmen scouting them out.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan group kept pushing forward. There were some that specialized in defense, healing, or other unique abilities like assassination. Such a group had a higher chance to survive the unknown.
Around half the time it took to make tea later, the howling of wolves and several hundred pairs of dark green eyes appeared once more, making everyone that saw them go cold.
"Watch out! There's several hundred wolfmen this time." Old Fei's heart shook. Many of them were holding weapons, and some even had armor. Compared to before, this group of wolfmen was a group of elites.
The several hundred wolfmen surrounded the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan's group.
Wu~~
A large wolfman leader walked out. Its fur was golden-brown, and it held a long spear.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat on Zhao Feng's shoulder gestured to Zhao Feng, as if translating something.
"Plunder?"
"They want us to leave everything behind and… all the women?"
The weird thing was that everyone could understand the little thieving cat's gesturing.
Everyone was surprised. Although the underground city was chaotic, it apparently had its own rules of survival as well.
"Tell them that we are the plunderers." Kong Feiling snickered coldly.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws at the wolfman leader.
Awuuuu~~~
The wolfmen roared and howled, and the leader became angry as it waved its spear and ordered the others to attack.
Boom!
A dark green whirlwind appeared from the wolfman leader's spear and swept toward the group from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. Just a casual blow was comparable to the power of a half-step King.
"Let me fight it!" Kong Feiling yelled as a glow of light radiated from her.
Bam!
Kong Feiling and the wolfman leader clashed, creating a shockwave that pushed everyone else away.
Although the bloodline and technique of this wolfman weren't as strong as Kong Feiling's, it was extremely strong, and its physical body was powerful.
At the same time, the several hundred wolfmen charged forward.
In terms of number, the wolfmen had a big advantage, but the cultivators of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan were all geniuses and not to be underestimated.
An elder at the Great Origin Core Realm who specialized in Soul Dao techniques caused the wolfmen to panic and attack each other.
Zhao Feng circulated his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body; he wasn't scared of close combat. The wolfmen that approached him were all sent flying.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat jumped around in between the wolfmen. He didn't kill any of them, he just stunned them with its paws.
"Capture the leader first!" Old Fei roared as he attacked the wolfman leader from the side.
Wah!
The wolfman leader spat out a mouthful of blood.
After analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of the wolfman, Kong Feiling started to suppress it. With the help of Old Fei, they pushed the leader back.
Awuuu~~
Seeing that things weren't going as planned, the wolfman leader yelled and retreated with the other wolfmen.
"These wolfmen aren't too dumb. They specialize in working as a group to pick on the weak. If the opponent is too strong, they will retreat." Old Fei let out a long breath. After all, there were several hundred wolfmen, so if they fought without care, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan's group would be severely injured.
"Old Fei, I searched the soul of a small wolfman leader…" The Great Origin Core Realm elder that specialized in Soul Dao techniques came over and soon constructed a map of the area.
At the same time, a map appeared in Zhao Feng's mind, which contained information about the nearby area. In the chaotic situation just now, Zhao Feng soul-searched a wolfman as well.
"The disturbance of Yuan Qi should from the forbidden ground of the underworld city – the Evil God's Altar."
Old Fei and several others discussed. The Evil God was the god that these underground races prayed to.
"To reach the Evil God's Altar, we need to pass through the wolfmen, lizardmen, and even the territory of the scorpionmen. The scorpionmen are the strongest." Old Fei's eyebrows locked together as he glanced toward Kong Feiling.
There was definitely some sort of secret or fortune at the Evil God's Altar, but based on the current situation, they would meet powerful races on the way. The strength of the lizardmen and the scorpionmen were even stronger than the wolfmen.
"I feel like the Evil God's Altar contains an unusual power." Kong Feiling decided to give it a go. Her Imperial Dao bloodline felt that the disturbance from the Evil God's Altar was becoming stronger.
"Okay. Everyone, get ready to fight. Lizardmen normally specialize in spitting fire. Those that cultivate Water-elemental techniques, gather here," Old Fei ordered.
Zhao Feng had the Ice-Water bloodline and the Water of Wind Lightning, so he didn't have an issue being summoned to the front. In the past, he liked to act alone, but now, he had witnessed the strength of a group and how they managed to survive.
Now's not the time to act alone, Zhao Feng thought.
The group steadily entered the territory of the wolfmen and didn't face many ambushes.
Around half an hour later:
Boom! Boom! Bam!
The sound of fire and human yelling came from ahead.
"Hmm? Which force arrived before us?" Old Fei was very cautious.

Chapter 793 - The Strong Scorpionmen
The area ahead was the territory of the lizardmen.
Before they even arrived, they could feel a fiery hot aura. At this moment, fifty or sixty people were fighting with the lizardmen.
These lizardmen were even bigger than the wolfmen, they had thicker skin, and they had the ability to spit fire and venom.
Ding! Boom! Boom!
Attacks from half-step Origin Core Realms were unable to threaten the lizardmen. On the other hand, the venom and fire from the lizardmen were extremely troublesome, and one would lose a layer of skin at the least, if they even survived at all.
The leader of the younger generation group was a youth in purple who had reached the half-step King level, and there were also two older half-step Kings. The total strength and number of this group were slightly weaker than the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan.
"It's the Purple Sun Palace, which is close to the Tianfeng Great Island Zone." Old Fei let out a breath as he squinted his eyes.
The Purple Sun Palace was a two-star sect that was close to the Tianfeng Great Island Zone. Those that were close to each other in the real world would also appear relatively close to each other in the Divine Illusion Zone, so it was within expectations that the Purple Sun Palace would appear here.
Old Fei was only worried about meeting a three-star force or greater, or a single Void God Realm King.
"Friends from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, our target is the same. Come help us!"
The disciples and elites from the Purple Sun Palace were having a hard-fought battle. The lizardmen's skin was extremely tough, and the fire and venom they spat out were troublesome.
"Everyone, go and create a pathway through the lizardmen's territory," Old Fei said without hesitation.
The relationship between the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace wasn't very good, but at the moment, they were facing another species and searching for fortune. The combined strength of both forces could reduce casualties.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan's help instantly reduced the pressure on the Purple Sun Palace.
Water-elemental attacks were more useful against the lizardmen. Zhao Feng, who had the Water of Wind Lightning, was obviously one of the top fighters.
Shu! Shu! Shu!
Zhao Feng waved his hand, and ripples of water and lightning slashed toward the lizardmen nearby.
The peak fifth level of the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique was very strong, and his attacks all hit the lizardmen's vitals. Most of the lizardmen were instantly killed by Zhao Feng, unable to fight back at all.
"Hm? That brat's Water Lightning has reached a very powerful level and seems to heavily counter the lizardmen." Some older experts couldn't help but praise.
Zhao Feng was extremely speedy and agile. The clumsy lizardmen were unable to even touch his clothes. Of course, when it came to the half-step King lizardmen, Zhao Feng only acted as a support.
"Thank you, everyone," the Head disciple from the Purple Sun Palace expressed his thanks. The gaze of the purple-robed youth paused on Kong Feiling and Zhao Feng.
The two two-star forces then teamed up and started to attack the territory of the lizardmen.
"Lizardmen aren't fast. We don't need to fight with all of them, we just need to create a path," Old Fei suggested, and both groups accepted this.
Lizardmen had tough skin, so killing them all one by one would be tiring. Not only was there a large number of lizardmen, they didn't know how to retreat like the wolfmen. Wolfmen were more intelligent and would run away if they weren't the enemy's match, but lizardmen would fight to the death.
"Kill!"
The strongest people of the two forces opened a path while the defensive experts were responsible for keeping everyone safe. Zhao Feng and the agile ones were placed at the back, responsible for killing off any lizardmen that followed them.
Around one hour later, the two forces successfully created a pathway.
Hu~~
Everyone let out a long breath. The lizardmen were indeed troublesome.
At this moment, the weird Yuan Qi disturbance from below became stronger, and it was extremely alluring to living beings.
Evil God's Altar… Zhao Feng's left eye gazed toward the depths of the underground city. With the inspection of the God's Spiritual Eye, he could guess and analyze what the disturbance was about.
Zhao Feng's Imperial Dao bloodline seemed to be very excited by this power, but his Ice-Water bloodline had no reaction.
"Everyone, get ready! We are going to face the scorpionmen next. They are the strongest of the lot!" Old Fei yelled.
Scorpionmen had strong offense, defense, and speed. Their attacks were also venomous.
Before they even arrived in the territory of the scorpionmen, a surge of dark aura appeared. For some reason, Zhao Feng remembered the mutated scorpion he had once tamed in the Purple Saint Ruins. There was a similar aura here.
Sii!
An ugly scorpionman suddenly jumped out from a corner and waved its claws.
It was just a single scorpionman. Because scorpionmen were so strong by themselves, they didn't need to work together like wolfmen.
Ding! Ding! Peng! Bam!
Five or six elites attacked at the same time and forced the scorpionman back.
"Don't chase after it!"
The scorpionman became angry and flicked its tail, stabbing through the heart of a disciple that was chasing after it.
"Arghh!"
The Origin Core Realm disciple screamed, then died.
The experts from both forces drew in cold breaths.
Zhao Feng realized that, in the attacks just now, the scorpionman's carapace hadn't been injured.
Scorpionmen were fast and agile, and their claws and tails could deal critical damage. One could say that they were almost a perfect race – apart from the fact that they were so ugly.
"Those that cultivate the element of Fire, go to the front," Old Fei ordered.
Although it couldn't be said that the scorpionmen were countered by fire, they were less resilient against it.
Hu~ Hu~ Hu~ Boom!
Several experts that cultivated the element of Fire teamed up and sent a blast of flames toward the scorpionman, causing it to scream. Several breaths later, the scorpionman turned into ashes, but the leaders from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace had solemn expressions – this was only one scorpionman.
As they went further in, even stronger surges of a cold and dark aura appeared. The aura from these scorpionmen were stronger than the one before, and the two groups combined to fight one scorpionman after another.
There were quite a few scorpionmen, but luckily, they didn't gather by the hundreds. Otherwise, the two groups would have no chance at all.
At a certain moment, a tall-but-ugly female scorpionman appeared in front. The female scorpionman had half-step King Intent, and her speed and offense had reached a terrifying level. Even the combined strength of two half-step Kings from the Purple Sun Palace was unable to touch her.
"Argh!"
Screams sounded from the group.
Ding! Ding! Bam!
Any attack that managed to land on the female scorpionman would create sparks; she was unharmed.
"Apart from her soul-strength, her battle-power is comparable to a King." Zhao Feng couldn't help but click his tongue.
Her speed, attack, and defense were all very strong, and even normal half-step Kings could be slain by her venom.
"Arghhhh!"
A Great Origin Core Realm elder's skin was sliced open by her claws, and he soon died.
Anyone weaker than a King that was envenomated would almost certainly die. Even the experience Old Fei felt troubled.
Apart from the female scorpionman, there were twenty or so additional powerful scorpionmen nearby who were all at least at the Great Origin Core Realm, not much weaker than half-step Kings.
Right as the two sides began fighting, two Magnificent Powers appeared from the center of the scorpionmen's territory.
One Magnificent Power was evil and wicked. It was several times stronger than the female scorpionman. The other one was mystical, as if the owner couldn't be caught.
Boom…! Boom…! Boom…!
The clash of the two King auras summoned more scorpionmen.
"Hmm? Could there be a King from the outside world here?"
The groups from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace were both wary.
At this moment, the female scorpionman seemed to receive some news, and she quickly retreated with the other scorpionmen.
Whoosh!
The female scorpionman left a blurry afterimage behind.
Hu~
Everyone let out a breath. Apart from the female scorpionman's soul not being as strong as a King's, her battle-power had reached the level of a King.
However, no realized that, when the female scorpionman rushed away by about two hundred yards and reached a dark corner, a gust of wind swished toward her head.
Miao miao!
A little silver-gray cat seemed to appear out of midair and hit her head with its paw. The paw wasn't very strong, but a dizzying sensation overcame the female scorpionman. Immediately following that, a purple eye made of lightning appeared in her sight.
"Ice Soul Gaze!"
An ice-cold sensation spread throughout the female scorpionman's relatively weaker soul.
In reality, her soul wasn't actually weaker than most half-step Kings, it just hadn't reached the level of a King like her other aspects.
God Tribulation Lightning… an immortal and undying aura entered the female scorpionman's soul, and it started to shake as if doomsday had arrived. This source of power injured her soul and made her tremble in fear.
"Dark Heart Seal."
As the female scorpionman panicked, a forbidden and wicked disturbance of eye-bloodline power imprinted itself into the depths of her soul.
"Success," a handsome youth with purple hair murmured.
Miao miao!
Whoosh!
The little thieving cat and the female scorpionman disappeared at the same time.
Whoosh!
With a flash of his lightning wings, the purple-haired youth disappeared.
"Zhao Feng, where did you go just now?" Liu Tianfan saw the purple-haired youth appear from a dark corner.
"I was fighting with a scorpionman and it ran away…." Zhao Feng said expressionlessly.
Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng!
The battle between the two Kings became more and more fierce. Everyone saw a large shadow of a scorpion blot out the sky.
"It's a scorpionman King!"
Everyone took in a cold breath. If normal scorpionmen were already so strong, it was hard to imagine how terrifying a King would be.
At the same time, they let out a breath. If they had known that the scorpionmen had a King, they wouldn't have dared to enter.
"Looks like that scorpionman King's been forced to use its bloodline secret technique!" Old Fei exclaimed.
It was hard to imagine how strong the other King was if they could do that.
Boom! Boom! Bam!
The underground city shook, and one could faintly see a proud youth amongst the dust. He was covered in a silver haze and gave off spatial undulations.

Chapter 794 - Familiar Person, Searching
The clash between the youth and the scorpionman King caused everyone's soul to shake.
The scorpionman King used its bloodline secret technique to summon the shadow of a large scorpion, which released surges of an ancient bloodline aura that contained enough power to shake Heaven and Earth. This was under the fact that they were being heavily restricted by the Divine Illusion Dimension. If they were in the outside world, this scorpionman King could wreak havoc on some smaller island zones.
Whoosh!
The youth used a profound spatial technique and left behind a streak of silver as he moved freely.
"Mystic Spatial Split!"
A beam of silver suddenly extended across space itself and slashed toward the scorpionman King.
Crack!
The scorpionman King's defense, which was able to withstand attacks from other Kings, started to crack and bleed.
"Human bastard, die~~~!" the scorpionman King roared as it counterattacked. It waved its claws and tail around, creating a mixture of dark silver whirlwind that ripped everything within a hundred yards into shreds.
Bo~~
A silver flow of light covered the youth's body, and the scorpionman King's attack seemed to enter a spatial whirlpool and get directed away. However, even with the spatial secret defensive technique, the youth groaned and was forced back several dozen yards.
"That scorpionman King's battle-power is close to a Peak-tier King when enraged."
"The aura of life from that King is really young, but I haven't heard of such a person on the Imperial Genius rankings."
The people from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace couldn't help but start to discuss.
Kong Feiling was on the Imperial Genius rankings, but she was only ranked around three hundred.
Although the youth wasn't able to clash with the scorpionman King head-on, he was able to gain control due to his spatial techniques.
"It's him…!" Zhao Feng looked at the proud youth and was surprised. That's right, he knew this youth and had even worked together with him. Seeing him once again, Zhao Feng sighed in his heart.
"Friend, do you need our help?" A light glittered in Kong Feiling's eyes. The youth's strength and appearance gave even the proud Kong Feiling a good impression.
"No need," the youth said expressionlessly as he fought against the scorpionman King with his spatial techniques.
As time passed, the scorpionman King was unable to keep up the bloodline secret technique, and its injuries started to add up. Within one hour's time, the scorpionman King was defeated, and it turned into a dark streak of light and sped toward the darker and more wicked areas of the underground city.
The youth didn't chase after the scorpionman King because he had expended a lot of energy to win.
"May I ask which force you come from?" Old Fei, Kong Feiling, and company asked. If they were able to form an alliance with such a genius, it would be a great help to them.
"Nan Gongsheng, Mystic True Sacred Clan." The youth scanned over the two groups emotionlessly. They had many half-step Kings and a lot of elites. He couldn't ignore them.
"Nan Gongsheng?" Kong Feiling smiled and gently murmured this name as she remembered it.
Nan Gongsheng wasn't very famous in the lord dynasty.
"Mystic True Sacred Clan? No wonder…." Old Fei knew a lot, and three-star forces were rare even in the continent zone. The Mystic True Sacred Clan was a three-star superpower from the Cang Ocean.
After defeating the scorpionman King, Nan Gongsheng entered the scorpionmen's palace and started to take their treasures.
"The resources in the scorpionman King's palace are mine. You guys can have everything else," Nan Gongsheng said.
The scorpionman King was defeated by Nan Gongsheng alone, so no one dared to take any of the treasures in the palace.
Being the strongest race in the area, the scorpionmen had a large amount of wealth.
Zhao Feng also participated in the plundering. The female scorpionman he had taken control of knew the territory of the scorpionmen well, as well as several places where they hid their treasures. According to the soul search Zhao Feng did on the female scorpionman, she was the King's "queen." Apart from the scorpionman King himself, she had the highest status and greatest strength.
Whoosh!
Zhao Feng left behind a ripple of water and lightning as he entered a "resource chamber." There were four scorpionmen experts guarding the resource chamber, and Zhao Feng summoned the scorpionmen's queen to get rid of them.
Rare plants and treasures of every type lay in the resource chamber. They were all extremely rare and hard to find in the outside world.
A surge of pure Heaven Earth Yuan Qi instantly flowed out and raised the attention of some people nearby.
"Come!" Zhao Feng used his fastest speed to gather some of the resources that were useful to him.
"Hmm? Dark Lightning Wood!"
Zhao Feng soon found a rare Lightning Dao material. It was a piece of black wood with dark lightning carvings on it.
Dark Lightning Wood grew in a wet environment and absorbed the power of lightning. The piece of Dark Lightning Wood in front of him was rare, and it had gathered the essence of lightning over the past several dozen millennia.
Zhao Feng held this wood and circulated the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique, and he felt wisps of dim lightning enter his body.
"Five Balanced Water Spirit Grass…. Dim Wind Bamboo…. Dark Dragon Teeth Grass…."
Zhao Feng's eyes glowed, but there were probably some resources in the palace that were worth even more. However, some of the resources here were the most useful for Zhao Feng.
Ceng! Ceng!
At this moment, the elites of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace felt the aura from the treasures and quickly closed in. The aura from these treasures was too strong, and Zhao Feng couldn't fully seal it. He could use his Magnificent Power, but that would probably attract even more attention.
"Zhao Feng, you're pretty lucky." Old Fei led a group of people and quickly gathered near the resource chamber.
"Quick! Don't let the people from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan take everything!"
The speed of those from the Purple Sun Palace wasn't much slower, but the four scorpionmen started to attack them when they got close.
The battle soon started, but it wasn't hard for the two forces to kill them.
Only Old Fei was slightly curious; Why could Zhao Feng enter the resource chamber without being attacked by those scorpionmen?
However, he didn't have the time to think anymore. They charged into the resource chamber and obtained the treasures. This resource chamber had many treasures that were all put in separate containers and protected by arrays. A certain amount of time was required to break through every array.
By the time they arrived, Zhao Feng had already taken several treasures that were most useful for him, including the Dark Lightning Wood, the Five Balanced Water Spirit Grass, and the Dim Wind Bamboo, which would help Zhao Feng's Wind Lightning Technique and True Yuan, while the Dark Dragon Teeth Grass was a rare plant that increased one's lifeforce. The Dark Dragon Teeth Grass was the only item that Zhao Feng found that could help his body-strengthening technique greatly.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun palace split the resources, and since Zhao Feng was the one that found the place, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan received 70% while the Purple Sun Palace only received 30%.
Those from the Purple Sun Palace weren't greedy though. In terms of strength, they were slightly weaker than the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and they had already made an agreement beforehand.
The resource chamber was soon depleted.
"Zhao Feng, the treasures you took seem to have the highest value." Old Fei's eyes twinkled as he looked at him, and Zhao Feng knew what he meant. With a smile, Zhao Feng took out the resources he had taken.
"Zhao Feng, you're very honest." Old Fei nodded his head in satisfaction. The resources Zhao Feng had found were alluring even to half-step Kings. According to the rules, Zhao Feng needed to split the resources he found with his group. Who would dare to enter such a dangerous place alone?
"These are all rightfully mine." Zhao Feng's tone was calm.
Hearing that, Old Fei's expression wasn't very natural, and he was unhappy in his heart. It was obvious that Zhao Feng had no signs of splitting these resources.
"Oh well, you were the one that found the resource chamber." Old Fei didn't want to fight amongst themselves, and he could tell that Zhao Feng had some hidden cards; the nearby scorpionmen that were responsible for guarding the resource chamber didn't attack Zhao Feng, but they attacked everyone else. Furthermore, Zhao Feng had a mysterious Emperor as a master, and he was praised by Duke Nanfeng himself. Old Fei was just a middle echelon member of the clan and didn't want to offend Zhao Feng.
I'll wait for a chance to scam this brat, Old Fei decided.
Shua!
With a flash, Zhao Feng headed toward another direction.
"There is another storage place containing parts of rare beasts," Zhao Feng murmured. Since he had enslaved the scorpionmen queen, he knew more than others.
However, when he arrived, other people had already found the place. Kong Feiling and the purple-robed youth, the two Head disciples of the two clans, were present.
This underground chamber was enormous, and the materials here could be stacked into a mountain. Some materials needed to be stored in certain environments or else the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi would flow away and decay.
I don't need to have anything else, but the bones of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion King must be mine. Zhao Feng had a decisive look.
The bones of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion King contained pure power of Wind Lightning, which was compatible with Zhao Feng's Wind Lightning Technique. The only regretful thing was that the Crystal Core of the King lion was personally held by the scorpionman King.
Back then, the scorpionman King had paid a big price to slay the Purple Wind Lightning Lion, and he relied on his venom.
Just the power of Wind Lightning within the Crystal Core of a King could allow Zhao Feng's cultivation to dramatically increase.
"Found it!" Zhao Feng used his memories and God's Spiritual Eye to find the dark purple crystal-like bones quickly.
However:
"Brat, stop!" Several people from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace both found the bones of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion as well.

Chapter 795 - Framing
These people had arrived even earlier than Zhao Feng, and they knew what was valuable. Although they didn't recognize the exact history of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion bones, that didn't stop them from estimating its value.
The person who told him to stop included the purple-robed youth. He was a Head disciple and had reached the half-step King level, but he wasn't on the Imperial Genius rankings.
"Everyone that's here gets a share, and I want some of those bones," Zhao Feng said directly, and his attitude infuriated the Purple Sun Palace. A genius from the Purple Sun Palace had found this place first, and Zhao Feng wanted to take one of the most valuable materials even though he didn't do anything? This made them angry and laugh at the same time.
"Hmph, we haven't even decided how to split the resources yet." The purple-robed youth furrowed his eyebrows. Although the cultivation of this youth wasn't very high, he had actually had such a thick face.
"What's going on?" Zhao Feng's eyes turned toward the Head disciple of his clan, Kong Feiling.
Kong Feiling had a weird expression, and Zhao Feng finally understood that the two forces hadn't even decided how to split the resources yet.
The Purple Sun Palace had found this place first and wanted the biggest cut, but several people from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan were also present when it was found. The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan wanted to split it 50-50, but the Purple Sun Palace wanted at least 60%.
"It's simple then – let one's own abilities decide."
Hearing that, those from the Purple Sun Palace became furious.
"Brat, if we let our own abilities decide, you won't be able to obtain these rare Lightning Dao bones!" An elder from the Purple Sun Palace roared with laughter.
"Fine, I'll back out for now." Zhao Feng shrugged his shoulders and moved toward Kong Feiling.
"Wait, the bones have disappeared!" The eyes of a chubby middle-aged man from the Purple Sun Palace bulged out, and everyone looked over.
The bones of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion had disappeared.
Whoosh!
A dark streak of silver flashed.
"Spatial technique!" the purple-robed youth yelled as his half-step Divine Sense filled the air, but the streak of silver disappeared.
"Brat, did you just steal the bones?"
Those from the Purple Sun Palace looked over. Even the purple-haired youth was suspicious of Zhao Feng.
"Ridiculous. Which one of you saw me steal the bones?" Zhao Feng said disdainfully, and everyone's expression froze.
Indeed, Zhao Feng hadn't done anything. He was being watched by both sides the entire time, so he didn't have any chance to do anything.
"Furthermore, who has the ability to steal something right in front of two half-step Kings?" Zhao Feng said righteously.
Those from the Purple Sun Palace and the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan acted as if they had seen a ghost. Logic told them that Zhao Feng couldn't have done it, and yet instinct told them that Zhao Feng was definitely related to it.
"Then who do you think did it?" the purple-robed youth asked.
Zhao Feng was silent for a moment; "According to my analysis, there's only one person who has the ability to do this, and he's not from the two forces."
Hearing that, everyone's heart shook.
"Nan Gongsheng!" Kong Feiling and the purple-robed youth exclaimed.
Ability-wise, Nan Gongsheng was the most suspicious.
"It might be Nan Gongsheng. His spatial techniques have reached a profound level."
Some people soon agreed. After all, there was no one among the two forces with such ability.
Zhao Feng laughed in his heart. Nan Gongsheng, I'm not purposely framing you, this is just the logical answer.
In the Demigod Forgotten Garden, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng had worked together before, and Nan Gongsheng played a big role in slaying Wen Luoan.
Nan Gongsheng did have the ability to steal the bones, but he was rather proud. He might take them by force, but he would never steal them.
"I didn't expect that Nan Gongsheng to be a thieving bastard." The purple-robed youth had a grim expression. If this was true, then they wouldn't be able to do anything against Nan Gongsheng. They could do nothing against Nan Gongsheng's spatial talents.
Right at this moment:
Whoosh!
Another rare material flew into the air and disappeared.
"That was a bull's heart!"
"That was the heart of an ancient bull that had almost reached the Void God Realm. It can strengthen one's organs and is suitable for body-strengthening."
Chaos broke out. By the end – no one knew who started it – but everyone started to take whatever they saw. The streak of silver would occasionally appear.
"Nan Gongsheng…! Bastard!"
Both forces swore as they fought. Although this thief hadn't taken much, they were all the most valuable.
"Hm? Who's cursing me?" The Divine Sense of a King swept over.
Boom!
Everyone's soul shook as a Magnificent Power arrived. The two forces that were cursing and swearing instantly felt unable to breathe.
"Who's cursing me?"
A youth arrived with just a couple steps.
Nan Gongsheng!
The expressions of everyone from the two forces stiffened, and those that had cursed out loud were scared.
At this moment, Nan Gongsheng had finished taking some of the resources from the scorpion King Palace, and the rest weren't rare enough. He was just about to leave when he heard someone cursing him; the senses of a Void God Realm King were extremely strong.
"This… it was an accident," the purple-robed youth and company started to explain.
"You can't blame us. That Zhao Feng was suspicious of you, so we…" The Purple Sun Palace group started to shift the blame onto Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng? Nan Gongsheng revealed a weird look and gazed toward a handsome youth.
"That's right. I was suspicious of Nan Gongsheng, but I never swore or cursed at him," Zhao Feng said without fear. He just wanted to direct the suspicion away himself. After all, Nan Gongsheng was strong enough to handle them all. Those who had sworn and cursed out loud were from the Purple Sun Palace.
"Why were you suspicious of me?" Nan Gongsheng stared at Zhao Feng with a grim expression. This youth had the same name as that person. That person had even killed the Emperor of Death – Nan Gongsheng couldn't reach that person's height.
However, after scanning with his Divine Sense, he determined that they were not the same person. The aura of their techniques was different, and Nan Gongsheng just couldn't connect this weak youth with the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor.
"Senior Martial Brother Nan, it's like this…" Zhao Feng told him a summary of what had happened.
"You're very honest, and your suspicions… are indeed logical." Nan Gongsheng faintly nodded his head. It was hard to find anyone else that could steal in front of two half-step Kings without them realizing. Even Nan Gongsheng would have to give it his full strength to do so.
"As for you brats…" Nan Gongsheng's cold gaze scanned over the purple-robed youth and company.
Boom!
A spatial disturbance crushed over.
Wah!
The purple-robed youth and company all spat out a mouthful of blood; they were injured. None of them could do anything in front of a King that specialized in Space. Only Kong Feiling might be able to exchange a few blows with Nan Gongsheng, but Kong Feiling always thought well of Nan Gongsheng and hadn't cursed at him.
The only ones that Nan Gongsheng had punished were those who had cursed him. How dare they humiliate a King?
Those from the Purple Sun Palace had dead-fish-eyed expressions, and they didn't dare to say anything.
"I wouldn't bother stealing it from you, I would just take it by force." Nan Gongsheng snickered coldly, then waved his hand and used a spatial technique to gather the resources in the underground chamber.
No one from the Purple Sun Palace or the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan dared to stop him or take anything, apart from one person – Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng didn't stop Nan Gongsheng, he just started to take some other resources as well.
"Zhao Feng…." Kong Feiling and company all sweated for Zhao Feng.
"Hahaha… you're interesting and courageous, just like that person!" Nan Gongsheng laughed. Most resources here were of no use to him, but Zhao Feng's actions had raised his interest.
Shua!
Zhao Feng used the Water of Wind Lightning when moving.
"Wind Lightning? What's the relationship between you and that Zhao Feng!?" Nan Gongsheng exclaimed.
"Relationship? My name is Zhao Feng." Zhao Feng smiled as he quickly took the resources.
At this moment in time, those from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace didn't dare to do anything.
"Similar, so similar…." Nan Gongsheng murmured.
The technique that this Zhao Feng cultivated was similar to the original Zhao Feng, and they even acted in similar ways. Of course, Nan Gongsheng was suspicious, but he didn't actually believe it. He wouldn't believe that the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor, an unparalleled Emperor, would be this weak youth.
A while later, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng took everything from the underground chamber.
Nan Gongsheng didn't attack Zhao Feng. Maybe it was because the latter's actions suited his taste, or maybe it was because of that person.
Zhao Feng remained expressionless after taking the resources. He had a good control over Nan Gongsheng's thoughts, and he was certain that Nan Gongsheng wouldn't dislike his actions.
Nan Gongsheng…. I won't reveal my identity to you, but I won't hide it either. Let's see if you can figure it out or not. A smile appeared on Zhao Feng's face as he looked toward the direction where Nan Gongsheng went.
He decided to get a good control over Nan Gongsheng's mindset in order to get himself more benefits. After all, Nan Gongsheng was definitely one of the strongest people that had entered the Divine Illusion Dimension.
An hour later, Nan Gongsheng left the territory of the scorpionmen and headed toward the Evil God's Altar.
The Evil God's Altar released a mysterious power that made the nearby Heaven Earth Yuan Qi unusual. Those with stronger bloodlines felt it even more intensely.
According to the reactions of the underground races, the Evil God's Altar was creating some kind of miracle.
"The defeated scorpionman King should have escaped to the Evil God's Altar. We'll follow behind Nan Gongsheng. He can do all the work while we take everything." Old Fei's eyes twinkled with cunning.

Chapter 796 - Evil God Crystal
The Evil God Altar was at the very center of the underground city, and the closer a species was to the altar, the stronger they were. Zhao Feng received information from the scorpionmen queen that the scorpionmen weren't the only species near the altar. There were three other species that weren't any weaker than the scorpionmen.
In reality, the underground city also had ratmen, catmen, and other weaker species even further away from the altar than the wolfmen. There was more than one pathway that led to the underground city; the Purple Sun Palace group had entered from another entrance.
Zhao Feng didn't know how Nan Gongsheng got in, but according to what he knew, Kings would enter a random spot in the Divine Illusion Dimension. However, this random spot didn't mean they would show up anywhere in the entire Divine Illusion Dimension, only the part that actually connected to the continent zone. The area that connected was only a small portion of the entire dimension every time, and it was because of this that the lord dynasty had a limited understanding of the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Four hours later, the group passed through the territory of the scorpionmen. At this moment, a large black field appeared in the complex underground city. The field was dozens of miles wide and had a wicked altar at the center that gave off an evil aura.
Di! Da!
There was a blood pond a hundred yards wide in the center of the wicked altar, and many thick silver beams that reached the top of the underground city.
Black field, evil altar, a pond of blood – this atmosphere fit perfectly with the underground city.
Of course, what caught everyone's attention the most was a purple-blood-colored crystal at the top of the silver beams of the blood pond.
This Purple Blood Pearl was flawless and gave off a wicked power that caused the nearby Heaven Earth Yuan Qi to become chaotic.
"Evil God's Altar… this is it." Kong Feiling felt her Imperial Dao bloodline shake, and the feeling became very strong.
Zhao Feng's mutated Imperial Dao bloodline felt it as well.
Hu~
A red flame appeared on Zhao Feng's body, then quickly faded away.
Is this the Evil God Crystal? Zhao Feng inspected it. He knew more due to the scorpionmen queen.
The Evil God's Crystal was a type of God Crystal. Most God Crystals in the Fan Universe were substandard God Crystals, including those used to pass through Spiritual Zone Teleportation Arrays. On the other hand, the Evil God Crystal was apparently created by the divine power of an ancient Evil God.
"I didn't think it would be a pure God Crystal…! Unfortunately, this God Crystal has formed an evil consciousness and has the ability to affect the real world." Old Fei was extremely excited.
It was a God Crystal, and not a substandard one. This was something that belonged to the domain of Gods! The unique part about this Evil God Crystal was that it could conceal its power and affect the beings around it.
"Nan Gongsheng!" Kong Feiling suddenly exclaimed.
A pale-faced youth leaned on a wall in the corner of the Evil God's Altar. Several bodies of other species lay nearby.
It was obvious that Nan Gongsheng had been through a hard battle that was even fiercer than the fight against the scorpionmen.
According to what Zhao Feng knew from the queen, powerful warriors of four different races guarded this place. Apart from them, there was also a "priest." Although the battle-power of the priest wasn't very strong, they could interact with the Evil God's Altar, so they had a high status.
"Nan Gongsheng, what happened to you?" Kong Feiling rushed over with care.
"Don't come near me!" Nan Gongsheng's expression became grim. He was used to working alone and didn't trust anyone.
The forces from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace started to slowly gather toward the altar.
A weird scene happened. Many disciples that got too close to the altar seemed to lose control and kept on walking toward the blood pond.
Plop!
One disciple from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan licked his lips and jumped into the pond of blood.
Shuu~~~
Bubbles appeared in the pond as the body of the disciple dissolved into nothing.
"Retreat! Everyone retreat!" Old Fei exclaimed.
Normal disciples didn't have Nan Gongsheng's King Intent, which could easily block the power of the Evil God Crystal.
The members of the two forces soon retreated to a certain distance. Only those with strong Intent could go close to the Evil God's Altar and start to inspect it.
"Nan Gongsheng, have you seen the priest?" Zhao Feng asked.
Nan Gongsheng's eyes opened, and a weird light flashed through his eyes. Zhao Feng's tone was like he was talking to someone familiar.
"Priest? I haven't seen anyone like that around the altar. There were a few strong warriors, but I killed them," Nan Gongsheng replied, and he suddenly felt weird; why did he reply to this youth's question so patiently?
The priest of the Evil God's Altar hasn't appeared? Zhao Feng felt that there was something suspicious. Could it be that the priest had urgent matters and left before Nan Gongsheng arrived? Zhao Feng felt that this was the most likely possibility. After all, the warriors around the altar had all been slain by Nan Gongsheng, including a King.
Nan Gongsheng looked weak and seemed to be injured. This wasn't just from the battle, it was also likely that the power of the God Crystal had harmed him when he tried to take the Evil God Crystal away. After all, the Evil God Crystal had its own evil consciousness, and it had methods it could use.
Even Nan Gongsheng can't take the Evil God Crystal. That means that the others… Zhao Feng thought.
The Evil God Crystal wasn't a substandard God Crystal, it was a true God Crystal, an invaluable treasure in the Fan Universe. A pure God Crystal was extremely useful for Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords trying to break through to the Heavenly Divine Realm.
Once Zhao Feng returned to the peak of his previous life, he might be able to barely move its power around.
Ta! Ta!
Zhao Feng walked confidently to the Evil God's Altar. He first glanced at the Evil God's Altar, then started to approach the blood pond.
"Zhao Feng!" someone from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan yelled. They thought that Zhao Feng was being controlled by the power of the Evil God Crystal.
A weird light flashed through Old Fei's eyes. Zhao Feng's eyes were full of intelligence and showed no signs that he was being controlled.
"No need to worry, let me inspect it." Zhao Feng walked a few circles around the blood pond, and the Evil God Crystal released a mysterious wicked power that tried to affect Zhao Feng, but it had no effect.
A faint purple glittered in Zhao Feng's left eye as he glared at the Evil God Crystal.
Weng~
The Evil God Crystal shook slightly and radiated a faint purple-red light that fought back.
Zhao Feng stood still. His mental energy world was like the ocean, and his Sacred Lightning Body released an invisible physical force that protected him. This combination of his mental energy and physical body was perfect.
Of course, the Evil God Crystal wasn't exactly a true intelligence; it only counterattacked depending on the force that attacked it. Simply put, one could look at it as a weapon with a weapon spirit. If you didn't offend or attack it, the weapon would find it hard to initiate an attack.
At a certain moment, Zhao Feng crouched down and aimed his hand at the blood pond.
Weng~~~
With the direction of his invisible physical force, a ball of blood appeared in his hand.
"If I get rid of the eroding and evil power in the blood, the pure essence can strengthen one's True Yuan, cultivation, and body!" Zhao Feng was overjoyed.
The blood essence came from some ancient races in the underground city, which were then eroded by the power of the Evil God Crystal.
According to what the scorpionmen queen knew, some warriors had entered this blood pond in the past and come out much stronger. The priest could connect to the Evil God Crystal and make sure that anyone who entered the blood pond would not be affected by the wicked power.
However, at the same time, the underground city would also send prisoners to the blood pond and sacrifice them to their Evil God. If they didn't, the flames from the underground would devour half of the underground city and wreak havoc upon the species that lived here.
Some species tried to go without believing in the Evil God, but the places where they lived were all burned by the underground fire.
As time passed, the power of the Evil God affected the entire underground city. Those that believed in the Evil God would become stronger, whereas disaster would fall upon those that didn't.
"You humans! The power of the Evil God will rip you all into shreds…!" a roar suddenly sounded from the pathway on the other side of the black field.
In the next instant, a snakeman elder holding a staff with a Purple Blood Stone on it rushed toward their group.
"That's…!" Everyone looked toward the snakeman elder that was wearing a priest outfit.
"It's the priest!"
The running snakeman elder was the priest of the Evil God Altar. However, when he saw the ruins around the Evil God's Altar, he swore out loud.
"Humans, how dare you split your forces in two and try to attack the Evil God's Altar!? The power of the Evil God isn't something you can think about," the priest cursed in human language.
Zhao Feng was surprised. It looked like this priest had been chased by some sort of power.
"Watch out! The priest is a Void God Realm King!" Old Fei exclaimed.
Although the priest didn't specialize in battle, he was still a King, and he could communicate with the Evil God Crystal as well.
"Anger of the Evil God!" The snakeman priest waved his staff, and the Purple Blood Stone on it gave off a light that interacted with the Evil God Crystal.
Boom!
The black field instantly started to shake as a purple-and-blood-colored haze spread throughout the air.
The purple-and-blood-colored light contained a strong eroding power that sucked away the blood and essence of the beings present. Furthermore, a power similar to Magnificent Power pressured the air nearby.
"Hmph!" Nan Gongsheng's figure flashed and disappeared. A spatial blade then shot toward the snakeman priest.
The snakeman priest wasn't scared; he raised the staff, which gave off a glow of purple-blood-colored light that forced Nan Gongsheng back.
Right as everyone was shocked by the power of the snakeman priest:
"Snakeman priest, let's see where you can run to!" a thunderous roar sounded alongside a surge of Magnificent Power.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several powerful auras appeared from the pathway where the snakeman priest had come from. There was a total of one hundred and sixty people.

Chapter 797 - Profit and Loss
The group that was following the snakeman priest was even stronger than the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan's group.
"Which clan managed to force the snakeman priest into such situation?"
Old Fei and company were surprised, but they also let out a breath at the same time. The strength of the priest was monstrous when he communicated with the Evil God Crystal.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The leader of the new group was a muscular male with thick eyebrows. He held a spear, and lightning sparkled everywhere.
"You humans…! Good, very good!"
The snakeman priest became enraged. This other group had destroyed the home of the snakemen, so the snakeman priest went back to try to help, but he wasn't the muscular male's match. Once he left the black field, he would be unable to communicate with the power of the Evil Crystal God.
Boom~~~~!
The snakeman priest waved his staff, and weird purple lightning snakes shot toward the group.
"Arghh!"
Screams sounded from the chasing group. They didn't expect the snakeman priest to become this much stronger after reaching the black field.
"Extreme Lightning Spear!" The muscular male with thick eyebrows stabbed out with his spear, condensing the power of lightning into an arc as it pierced through the air.
Boo~~
A purple-and-blood-colored light glowed from the snakeman priest and interacted with the power of the Evil God Crystal. Although the snakeman priest was unable to fully and truly use this power, it was much more profound, and the muscular male's attack was unable to break through the priest's defense.
"How is this possible…?" The muscular male was dazed. The snakeman priest that he beat the crap out of moments ago was now even stronger than he was.
The snakeman priest casually waved his staff, attacking the muscular male with a purple-and-blood-colored light that forced him to retreat.
The power of the Evil God Crystal is too profound even though it doesn't contain any laws…. Zhao Feng retreated to a corner.
The priest didn't have any technique; he relied on pure power. Even Emperors would be slightly weaker in terms of pure power, but luckily, the Evil God Crystal didn't contain any Intent.
"Anger of the Evil God!" The snakeman priest raised his staff, and the force of the Evil God Crystal radiated across the area. The entire black field was covered by a purple-and-blood-colored haze.
All the elites felt their lifeforce, blood, and even their bloodlines become weaker.
Weng~~
On the other hand, the color of the Evil God Crystal became brighter. Zhao Feng finally understood why those with bloodlines would have a unique attraction to the power of the Evil God Crystal.
"May I ask if you are Gu Chaozhi, who is ranked 145th on the Imperial Genius rankings? Let's team up and fight the priest together," Old Fei suggested.
Many people recognized the muscular male with the spear. Gu Chaozhi came from a three-star power at the edges of the continent zone, the Earth Spirit Hall. He was also on the Imperial Genius rankings, and he was ranked much higher than Kong Feiling.
"Sure." Gu Chaozhi was extremely straightforward. He made the elites of the Earth Spirit Hall form a defensive formation to fight against the snakeman priest. The pressure on the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and the Purple Sun Palace was smaller, and they used this chance to fight back.
The geniuses of the Earth Spirit Hall, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and the Purple Sun Palace all combined their power. Their force wasn't something to be underestimated; the Earth Spirit Hall alone was a three-star superpower.
Boom! Boom! Bam!
The field underneath the Evil God's Altar started to shake, and the snakeman priest gripped his staff slightly. He wasn't as nonchalant as before. The two King geniuses – Gu Chaozhi and Nan Gongsheng – would occasionally ambush him from the side as well.
"Kill the priest first, then we'll discuss how to split the Evil God Crystal!"
The three forces and Nan Gongsheng all came to an agreement and increased their offense.
Although the snakeman priest could connect to the Evil God Crystal, he was unable to fully unleash its power.
He was slowly put at a disadvantage, but the three powers were unable to kill him. The snakeman priest had retreated to the Evil God's Altar and was using the power of the Evil God Crystal and the blood pond. As long as he only focused on defending, even the two Kings would be unable to break through his defense.
What was even worse was that the wicked power of the Evil God Crystal was filling the field, and everyone was slowly losing their lifeforce and True Yuan. The depleting lifeforce and energy was then being absorbed by the blood pond and the Evil God Crystal.
If this continued, the three forces wouldn't be in a good spot. Of course, the snakeman priest was also using a lot of energy in the fight.
"We have more people, so we can drag this fight out until he dies."
The three forces continued their offense, and some of the people directed their attacks toward the altar.
"If we destroy the altar, the speed of the Evil God Crystal's power absorption will decrease," Old Fei said with a smile.
Crack!
Under the barrage of attacks, a crack appeared in the altar despite its extreme toughness. The priest's expression changed slightly.
"Scorpion King, come out!" the priest suddenly exclaimed and waved his staff.
Peng!
An ugly, black scorpionman jumped out from the blood pond.
"Scorpion King!"
This scorpionman was the one Nan Gongsheng had defeated before. The scorpionman King's injuries had been healed after entering the blood pond, and he was currently covered in a purple-and-blood-colored haze that increased his battle-power and defense.
"Kill!!" The scorpionman King waved its claws and charged into the group with a surge of his dark Magnificent Power.
"Defeated trash!" Nan Gongsheng used his spatial techniques to approach the scorpionman King, sending small spatial blades through the air.
After the scorpionman King joined the fight, the pressure on the priest decreased dramatically. Both the scorpionman King's defense and offense were extremely strong, and with the help of the Evil God Crystal, it was like adding wings onto a tiger.
On the other hand, Nan Gongsheng wasn't at his peak.
Bam!
Gu Chaozhi from the Earth Spirit Hall gripped his spear and charged toward the Evil God's Altar several times, but he was sent flying every time.
The priest was using the power of the Evil God Crystal, so he was almost undefeatable in terms of defense.
"Everyone, retreat!" Old Fei exclaimed; he found that the situation wasn't looking good.
Concerning the two Kings, Nan Gongsheng had already used up a lot of energy, so he was feeling slightly weak. Gu Chaozhi wasn't at his peak either.
The three forces decided to momentarily retreat from the Evil God's Altar into a passage nearby.
Within the dark passage of the underground city, the three forces started to discuss with each other while keeping an eye on the Evil God's Altar.
The scorpionman King returned to the blood pond. The priest didn't dare to let the scorpionman King go too far, otherwise he would be unable to fend off the elites of the three forces by himself when they returned.
"I'll destroy the altar after I recover my energy. I hope everyone will give it their all," Nan Gongsheng said as he recovered his Yuan Qi in a corner.
"I still have some secret techniques I can use." Gu Chaozhi nodded his head.
The critical part about dealing with the priest was the altar. If the priest couldn't utilize the power of the Evil God Crystal, he would be killed.
For the next day or two, all the elites were recovering. On the other hand, Zhao Feng was already refreshed. He hadn't done much in the underground city.
Dark Lightning Wood. A piece of black wood appeared in Zhao Feng's hand, and he quickly circulated the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique to absorb its power. This piece of wood contained the pure essence of lightning, and Zhao Feng's Wind Lightning Technique could become more powerful by absorbing it. Of course, Zhao Feng still needed to purify the dark power within the Dark Lightning Wood.
Dim Wind Bamboo. Zhao Feng's other hand took out a piece of bamboo that summoned a gust of wind.
These two resources were extremely rare in the outside world. One was a powerful Lightning Dao resource, and the other was a powerful Wind Dao resource.
Zhao Feng could multi-task with the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique.
Five Balanced Water Spirit Grass. A third item appeared in Zhao Feng's hand.
"This guy's so rich. He's directly absorbing those three treasures." Some of the present disciples nearby were envious, while the older disciples shook their heads. Zhao Feng absorbing three treasures at the same time made others sigh.
Incredibly, Zhao Feng had a high efficiency, and he didn't lose much Heaven Earth Yuan Qi in the process. If this wasn't some sort of talent, it would have to be a secret technique.
"That brat cultivates the Dao of Wind Lightning," Gu Chaozhi murmured as he glanced toward Zhao Feng, but the latter kept on cultivating as if no one was there.
In reality, Zhao Feng also still had the bones of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion, but this wasn't a good time to take them out.
A couple days soon passed, and Zhao Feng had absorbed the majority of the three items. His speed was outstanding. The Core Center in his body expanded a little bit; he was a bit closer to the late stage of the Small Origin Core Realm.
When I finish absorbing the bones, I'll be able to reach the late stage of the Small Origin Core Realm, Zhao Feng couldn't help but think. Of course, the scorpionman King had the Crystal Core of a King Purple Wind Lightning Lion, which was even more valuable. If he was able to obtain it, Zhao Feng would be able to break through to the Great Origin Core Realm.
"Get ready to attack." Gu Chaozhi slowly stood up, and his spear glittered with snakes of lightning.
Nan Gongsheng stood up as well.
This time, the three forces created a formation and used an array that could utilize their advantage in numbers to the fullest.
"Anger of the Evil God!" The snakeman priest snickered coldly as he waved his staff and created a wicked purple-and-blood-colored haze that covered the area.
However, everyone was ready for this. With the help of the array, the power of the Evil God Crystal was reduced dramatically.
At the same time, Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi attacked.
"Lightning Burst!" Gu Chaozhi's Earth-grade spear shot out from his hand and spat out a beam of lightning that exploded on the Evil God's Altar. For an instant, the entire altar started to shake.
Gu Chaozhi had thrown out his spear, and a ball of lightning condensed on its tip before exploding. This move was the same as using his weapon as a bomb, and it had stunning power.
Crack!
Cracks started to appear on the Evil God's Altar.
After using his technique, Gu Chaozhi glanced smugly toward Nan Gongsheng, but he jumped up in fright by what he saw.

Chapter 798 - Thieving Cat in Charge
Right as everyone was stunned by Hu Chaozhi's powerful Lightning Burst:
"Qiankun Sword!"
A brilliant glow of light was released from Nan Gongsheng's body as a sword slashed through the air and shook Heaven and Earth. This sword seemed to flip the heavens, and it was filled with a dominating Intent. Everything in front of the Qiankun Sword seemed to shatter.
Shu~~
This sword covered the entire black field and split the purple-and-blood-colored light into nothingness.
Crack! Boom~~~~!
The stable underground city shook, and this was under the Divine Illusion Dimension's power suppression.
The borders of the Evil God's Altar turned into dust.
"Inheritance Sacred weapon…! Those are usually Heaven-grade!" the snakeman priest exclaimed.
"The Qiankun Sword! That's the lost Inheritance Sacred weapon of the continent zone!" Gu Chaozhi was also dazed. The damage from the sword attack just now was comparable to the Lightning Burst, but the Intent contained was more unique. One could easily tell whose attack was stronger.
As expected of an Inheritance Sacred sword that's on par with the Sky Locking Bow. Zhao Feng admired and sighed in his heart.
The Sky Locking Bow and the Qiankun Sword both came from the Demigod Forgotten Garden, and the Demigod Kun Yun had reached the peak of this world when he was at his strongest. The weapons he collected were extremely rare.
"Fucking humans…!" The snakeman priest felt the altar start to crumble, and he quickly waved his staff to communicate with the Evil God Crystal in an attempt to consolidate it. However, facing the continuous attacks of Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi, the Evil God's Altar would be unable to last very long.
"Come out!" The snakeman priest gritted his teeth and slammed his staff onto the ground.
Crack!
A whirlpool appeared in the blood pond.
Peng!
A wicked scorpion with red eyes charged out of the whirlpool. It was similar to the scorpionman King from before, and it radiated a bloodthirsty aura.
Peng! Bam! Boom!
The field underneath the Evil God's Altar shook again, as if unable to withstand the powerful strength.
"Watch out!" Old Fei roared. The dark red scorpion's aura was several times stronger than the scorpionman King.
Bam! Bam!
Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi were pushed away by a purple-and-blood-colored whirlwind created by the dark red scorpion.
"The scorpionman King has evolved with the help of the Evil God Crystal, and its battle-power has reached the Peak-tier King level. Apart from its soul and Intent, its other aspects are all comparable to an Emperor…."
Zhao Feng and company, who were further back, felt a strong and chaotic aura.
Every time the dark red scorpion moved, purple-and-blood-colored lights would turn into whirlwinds and rip everything into shreds.
Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi had to team up just to barely withstand them. If this dark red scorpion charged into the group, the result would be unimaginable.
"Split into two groups and attack it!" Old Fei directed from behind and split the geniuses into two groups. One was responsible for restraining the dark red scorpion, while the other group continued attacking the Evil God's Altar.
"Qiankun Void Space Slash!" Nan Gongsheng appeared in the air above the dark red scorpion and slashed out a spatial crack that was half a yard wide and more than a dozen yards long, ripping everything nearby into shreds. This spatial technique became terrifying with the addition of the Qiankun Sword.
Crack!
The dark red scorpion's carapace was instantly torn apart, creating a gash that reached the organs and bones. A screech resounded across the sky, and the field shook.
Whoosh!
Nan Gongsheng disappeared and dodged the crazy counterattack from the dark red scorpion, attacking it again from the side.
"Lightning Burst!" Another Earth-grade spear appeared in Gu Chaozhi's hand, and he used this chance to send it right into the dark red scorpion's mouth and make it explode.
Boom~~~~!
The dark red scorpion's face and mouth were almost completely ripped apart from the explosion.
Of course, every time Gu Chaozhi used this attack, it would cost him a weapon, but the advantage was that it didn't require as much energy as Nan Gongsheng using the Qiankun Sword.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Boom!
At the same time, the attacks from the three forces rained down on the dark red scorpion, which was now severely injured. There were signs of fear in its eyes; it could do nothing against Nan Gongsheng's spatial ability, and the Qiankun Sword was extremely powerful. Furthermore, Nan Gongsheng was a rare Space-related Domain-level King.
As time passed, the dark red scorpion was covered in injuries. Although its defense was strong, it was simply unable to withstand the spatial attacks from the Qiankun Sword.
Seeing this, the priest's expression became grim. Because the Evil God's Altar had been damaged, he received 20% less power from the Evil God Crystal's power compared to before. Furthermore, the three forces had formed a strong formation, they were using stronger methods, and they were also more resilient against the Evil God Crystal. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't stop them all.
As the scorpion was about to be defeated by the three forces, panic finally appeared on the priest's face.
"Evil God Tide!" the priest roared as he threw the staff into the blood pond, and the Evil God Pearl on top of the silver beam released a rain of purple-and-blood-colored light that unleashed a force that surpassed the Void God Realm.
Huu~~
The purple-and-blood-colored light instantly interacted with the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and creamed a storm. Because it was messing with the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi, the three forces started to panic and become uneasy.
The experts of the three forces almost lost control of their True Force or True Yuan. At this moment, panic broke out. Only a small number of people that were at least half-step Kings could stabilize their True Yuan. Even the two Kings' attacks momentarily stopped.
However, because the scorpion's physical strength was so strong, it was still able to threaten Void God Realm Kings with its claws even though the Yuan Qi was being disrupted.
Those with strong bodies won't be affected by this storm. Zhao Feng was stable as Mount Tai.
The priest's Evil God Tide disrupted the local Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and greatly affected True Force and True Yuan, and it also restricted the use of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi. However, those that cultivated body-strengthening techniques weren't affected.
In the past, the Demigod Kun Yun used his Demigod Sacred Body to crush everything standing in his path.
"Even if the priest does this, it won't turn the tide." Zhao Feng's eyebrows furrowed.
At the moment, Zhao Feng was only a side character in the underground city. Apart from controlling the scorpionmen queen, he hadn't used any of his true strength because nothing was attractive enough for him to do so.
"Don't let him run…!" Old Fei seemed to suddenly realize something and exclaimed. As soon as he said this, the snakeman priest ran away under the cover of the Evil God Tide.
The priest had already seen defeat coming, so he decided to save himself. The Evil God Tide made the human experts unable to circulate their True Yuan the way they wanted, but since he had the staff, he was unaffected by the Evil God Tide.
"Where do you think you're going!?" Nan Gongsheng turned into a streak of silver light and sped after the snakeman priest.
Spatial abilities were a rare power, and they weren't affected by the Evil God Tide very much. Furthermore, the priest was unable to fully use the power of the Evil God Tide because of the earlier damage.
However, even then, Nan Gongsheng's speed was much slower, and he could barely chase after him.
More than a dozen breaths later, Nan Gongsheng exited the black field – and the range of the Evil God Tide.
"Die!" Nan Gongsheng slashed out a spatial ripple that sent the snakeman priest flying.
The snakeman priest screamed as his blood spurted out. The staff he was holding also fell out of his hands.
Miao miao!
A dark silver streak of light flashed by, and a little silver-gray cat appeared. The little cat was extremely agile as it grabbed the staff.
"Hmm!?" Nan Gongsheng was shocked by the little cat's appearance.
Miao!
The little thieving cat gripped this staff with a purple-and-blood-colored treasure stone and smiled at Nan Gongsheng.
"Give me my Evil God Staff back!" the snakeman priest roared.
Bang!
The little thieving cat waved the staff and smashed it onto the snakeman priest's head, then disappeared. The snakeman priest cried as his head started to swell; he was dazed and confused.
Miao!
The little thieving cat grabbed the staff and disappeared right in front of the snakeman priest and Nan Gongsheng.
"Could it be…!?" Nan Gongsheng's body shook, but he quickly used a spatial slash to split the dazed snakeman priest in two.
A while later:
Miao miao miao!
A little cat holding a staff appeared and danced around on the Evil God's Altar, as if it was a priest. The elites of the three forces all had weird expressions.
At this moment, the Evil God Tide still hadn't fully calmed down.
Miao!
The little thieving cat's eyes spun as it waved the staff in its paw, and the Evil God Tide instantly faded away.
"That seems to be… Zhao Feng's pet!" a Central disciple from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan couldn't help but say.
"Did the priest take over the cat's body? It can communicate with the Evil God Crystal!"
The elites of the three forces were stunned, and the wicked power of the Evil God Crystal faded away.
Whoosh!
At the same time, the scorpion turned back into a scorpionman and ran into a pathway, but no one cared about it. Everyone focused on the little cat on the altar.
"Zhao Feng, your cat… how did it become the new priest of the Evil God's Altar?" Old Fei's eyes bulged out. Even Kong Feiling and company looked at Zhao Feng, the owner of that strange cat, in shock.

Chapter 799 - Invisible Force
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat, who was only slightly bigger than a palm, waved the Evil God Staff around while it danced, as if it was a priest.
At this moment, no one dared to ignore it because it had the ability to communicate with the Evil God Crystal as well. In fact, it was even better at communicating with it than the snakeman priest.
The leaders of the three forces – Gu Chaozhi, the youth in purple robes, Kong Feiling, as well as Old Fei – were acting as if they had been choked. This was especially true for Gu Chaozhi and the purple-robed youth; they didn't really understand what happened, and they didn't want a new priest to appear right after they killed the old one.
"Zhao Feng!" The elites from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan all gazed at the handsome youth because he was the owner of the cat.
"Zhao Feng, so it really is you…." Not far away, Nan Gongsheng revealed a solemn and complex expression. After seeing the little thieving cat, Nan Gongsheng was 80-90% certain that this Zhao Feng was the same one he knew, but he didn't know how Zhao Feng ended up like this.
"Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng know each other?" The disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan felt incredulous. One had to know that Nan Gongsheng came from the far away Cang Ocean, and he was a Core disciple of a three-star power. From the looks of it, Nan Gongsheng even seemed to be wary of Zhao Feng.
"I never said I wasn't." Zhao Feng smiled faintly, and Nan Gongsheng paused. He remembered what Zhao Feng had said back at the territory of the scorpionmen; "Relationship? My name is Zhao Feng." Zhao Feng didn't deny anything or suggest that he wasn't the same one he knew.
"What… what's going on?" The elites of the three forces didn't really understand, and the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan were stunned.
"This Zhao Feng…" Kong Feiling, Liu Tianfan, Huang Yunhu, and company kept their eyes on Zhao Feng. They felt that this youth was covered in a mysterious mist.
Ta! Ta!
Zhao Feng walked slowly toward the Evil God's Altar. The Evil God's Altar had already been broken into pieces, but the blood pond at the center wasn't damaged.
"Zhao Feng…" Nan Gongsheng looked at the back of that youth and was about to say something, but he stopped. He was filled with questions; back in the Cang Ocean, the name of the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor had spread throughout the three Sacred Lands, and the Pursuit of Death had become a legend.
The Emperor of Death was one of the most ancient Emperors that even Sacred Lords didn't want to offend for no reason. After learning about the details, the Mystic Light Realm Grand Elder of the Mystic True Sacred Clan was stunned; he didn't expect his clan to produce such a talented person.
If the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor was still in the Cang Ocean, even Sacred Lords would be respectful to him.
Zhao Feng didn't stop. He kept walking toward the blood pond.
Plop!
Zhao Feng jumped into the blood pond under the Evil God Crystal.
Di! Da!
The faint purple-and-blood-colored pond washed over Zhao Feng's body, but it didn't erode him with its wicked power.
"This blood pond not only contains the power of pure blood essence, it also has the power of the Evil God Crystal itself."
Zhao Feng lay in the blood pond as if he was enjoying it. Because the little thieving cat had the Evil God Staff and could connect to the power of the Evil God Crystal, Zhao Feng wasn't eroded by the wicked power. If this wasn't the case, anyone at the Small Origin Core Realm would be dissolved upon entering the blood pond.
Zhao Feng circulated his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body to absorb the essence of the God Crystal from the pond to strengthen his body. The bloody liquid had a high compatibility with humans. Furthermore, the power could also increase his True Yuan cultivation.
Zhao Feng had already thought about the crystal earlier. Although the Evil God Crystal was valuable, he couldn't use it.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi, the two King geniuses, landed next to the blood pond. Gu Chaozhi glanced at Zhao Feng in the blood pond, then at Nan Gongsheng, as if asking him what to do. In terms of strength, Nan Gongsheng was slightly stronger than him, but from the looks of it, Nan Gongsheng was actually cautious of that Small Origin Core Realm youth.
"Zhao Feng, what do you plan on doing with the Evil God Crystal?" Nan Gongsheng finally spoke.
Hearing that, everyone from the three forces, including Gu Chaozhi, felt their heart shake.
Nan Gongsheng was definitely the strongest amongst everyone present. His spatial talent, his secret techniques, and his Inheritance Sacred weapon – the Qiankun Sword – left a deep impression in their hearts. However, this same Nan Gongsheng asked what Zhao Feng thought about how to split the Evil God Crystal?
"The blood pond is mine. The Evil God Crystal isn't of much use to me currently, but if anyone can bring me the Crystal Core of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion that the scorpionman King carries around with him, I will do my best to help them get the Evil God Crystal," Zhao Feng said slowly.
He had decided to give up the Evil God Crystal after thinking about it.
Firstly, the Evil God Crystal was too valuable. It was a genuine God Crystal, so it would attract too much attention. As of right now, Zhao Feng's strength was only comparable to some Kings, which was only enough to protect his life. He didn't want everyone to attack him.
Secondly, the power of the Evil God Crystal was too profound, so he couldn't absorb it in the short term anyway.
On top of that, the Evil God Crystal was really hard to obtain. Zhao Feng had tried to scan it with the God's Spiritual Eye when he entered the Evil God's Altar, but the Evil God Crystal had a strong resistive force around it.
However, the most important point was that the power of the Evil God Crystal wasn't pure. It had been corrupted, and it had a wicked consciousness.
On the other hand, there was some energy of the Evil God Crystal in the blood pond that could be absorbed immediately, which could raise Zhao Feng's current strength.
This Zhao Feng is smart; he took the most useful blood pond with just one sentence while giving away the Evil God Crystal that attracts the most attention. Old Fei's eyes twinkled.
No one dared to fight Zhao Feng for the blood pond. After all, his cat had replaced the snakeman as the new priest, so it could connect to the power of the Evil God Crystal. Furthermore, Nan Gongsheng's wary and respectful attitude toward Zhao Feng made others think of Zhao Feng as someone mysterious.
"Okay." Nan Gongsheng was the first to agree. He cultivated the Dao of Space, not body-strengthening, so the blood pond wasn't very attractive to him anyway.
Gu Chaozhi and the elites of the Earth Spirit Hall were dissatisfied.
"Senior Martial Brother Gu, are we going to give the blood pond to him just like that?" several Core disciples behind asked with unwillingness.
Gu Chaozhi's eyes scanned across Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng, and he stayed silent. Based on the current situation, Nan Gongsheng was on Zhao Feng's side, and the little thieving cat had become the new priest of the Evil God's Altar.
"This Friend, do you keep your promises? Anyone that gives you the Crystal Core of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion can get the Evil God Crystal?" A half-step King with a white beard from the Earth Spirit Hall looked at Zhao Feng in the blood pond with twinkling eyes.
"Of course. I won't stop anyone from trying to take the Evil God Crystal away. However, I can't guarantee that they will be able to get the Evil God Crystal. I can only try my best to assist," Zhao Feng replied.
Hearing that, several people from the three forces tried to take the Evil God Crystal away, but all of them failed and were counterattacked by the Evil God Crystal.
Wah!
The half-step King with a white beard immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, and several others were also injured. The unluckiest person was sent flying by the Evil God Crystal and immediately fainted.
The Evil God Crystal wasn't a normal God Crystal. Apparently, it was formed from the divine power of an Evil God and now had a wicked consciousness that attacked anyone from the outside world that tried to interact with it.
The staff in the little thieving cat's paws had a purple-and-blood-colored treasure stone that was actually a peak-grade Primal Crystal Stone that had been refined by the Evil God Crystal and then crafted into the staff with a unique method that could connect to the Evil God Crystal.
Di! Da!
Zhao Feng lay in the blood pond and used the power of the God Crystal to refine his body and increase his cultivation.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Dark Lightning Wood, the Dim Wind Bamboo, the Five Balance Water Spirit Grass, and some other items appeared in front of Zhao Feng.
In the blink of an eye, the majority of a day passed. In this period of time, many elites of the three forces had tried to take the Evil God Crystal away, but none of them succeeded.
Nan Gongsheng just sat there without trying. He had already tried to take it away when he arrived, so he had already experienced the Evil God Crystal's counterattack.
Gu Chaozhi sent people from the Earth Spirit Hall to find the tracks of the scorpionman King.
"Zhao Feng, I will go get the Crystal Core of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion." Nan Gongsheng stood up. He had finally recovered his Yuan Qi, and he immediately disappeared from the Evil God's Altar with a flash.
"Senior Martial Brother Gu, that Nan Gongsheng has left. Now is the perfect chance to deal with that brat," a Core disciple form the Earth Spirit Hall suggested.
Gu Chaozhi stood motionless and gave a deep glance toward Zhao Feng in the blood pond.
"Senior Martial Brother Gu, I wouldn't be your match in a one-on-one fight." Zhao Feng smiled and looked at him.
That made Gu Chaozhi's face twitch, and the disciples of the three forces all had weird expressions. What kind of opponent purposely admitted that they weren't the enemy's match? However, the more Zhao Feng acted like that, the more uneasy Gu Chaozhi became, and thinking about how Nan Gongsheng was so wary and even slightly respectful toward this youth, he wasn't confident.
"Go. Let's go find the scorpionman King," Gu Chaozhi ordered and led a group of people to find the scorpionman King. There were more resources than just the Evil God Crystal, and there were many places that they hadn't been yet.
Di! Da!
Zhao Feng lay in the blood pond and couldn't help but shake his head. What he said was the truth. He didn't lie to Gu Chaozhi; as of right now, Zhao Feng's soul-strength was the only thing that was comparable to a Void God Realm King. It would be easy to deal with anyone below the Void God Realm, but Gu Chaozhi was a King that was on the Imperial Genius rankings, and his battle-power surpassed normal Kings. In a true one-on-one fight, Zhao Feng might have the ability to protect himself, but there was only a small chance of winning.
His cultivation was rising as he lay in the blood pond. When he finished using the Dark Lightning Wood, the Dim Wind Bamboo, and the Five Balance Water Spirit Grass, his cultivation was almost at the late-stage Small Origin Core Realm.
The power of the God Crystal and the essence of the blood pond helped his Sacred Lightning Body and his cultivation a lot.
At the same moment, some members of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan murmured with dissatisfaction.
"That Zhao Feng is keeping the entire blood pond for himself. Selfish!"
"He has the ability but isn't helping us take the Evil God Crystal…."
The disciples and elites were extremely dissatisfied and decided to go talk to Zhao Feng.

Chapter 800 - Improvement in the Sacred Lightning Body
"Zhao Feng!"
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao!"
Some disciples and older elites of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan started to gather toward the blood pond angrily. Kong Feiling and Old Fei were among them, and they had helpless expressions. Based on Zhao Feng's actions earlier, it was obvious that Zhao Feng wouldn't give away what belonged to him so easily, and even Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi were wary of him.
Di! Da!
Zhao Feng lay lazily in the blood pond and glanced at these members of the same clan.
"Zhao Feng, this old man admires your strength, but no one feels well about you taking the blood pond by yourself or giving the Evil God Crystal away. If this reaches the upper echelon of the clan…." Old Fei's tone was respectful while also revealing their intentions.
"That's right, you are a member of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, how can you be this selfish?"
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao, are you not scared of the upper echelon punishing you?"
Some disciples and older elites warned to show their dissatisfaction.
"Hmph!" Zhao Feng's expression went cold. "You really think I'd be scared of the upper echelon of a two-star clan?"
Everyone paused, and the ones threatening him with the upper echelon of the clan felt like they had been choked.
The hearts of Old Fei and Kong Feiling shook. Could it be that Zhao Feng wasn't scared of the upper echelon of the clan? Did he even put them in his eyes? Seeing Zhao Feng's composed expression, Old Fei and Kong Feiling both felt like he wasn't simply being arrogant. Even Nan Gongsheng, a super genius of a three-star power, was respectful and wary of Zhao Feng.
Apart from that, Zhao Feng was also admired by Duke Nanfeng, who even owed Zhao Feng a favor. Apparently, Zhao Feng had even declined the title of Marquis. If he was willing, Zhao Feng could just leave the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan and join the Duke's Palace, and he could even enter the circle of the imperials.
"This Zhao Feng is immeasurable. He does have the right to be arrogant." Old Fei's eyes twinkled. At the moment, they didn't want to fight with Zhao Feng.
"This blood pond is my spoils of war. Without my cat communicating with the Evil God Crystal, it would be useless," Zhao Feng said. This was his spoils of war. If he was willing to split it, that was him being generous, but there was nothing wrong if he didn't give any away.
"Then what about the Evil God Crystal? That's a God Crystal! That's something that belongs to the domain of Gods," a youth said coldly, and his question reflected what everyone else thought.
They were all awaiting Zhao Feng's reply, and he didn't want to cause trouble with the clan at the moment.
"The Evil God Crystal isn't something that we can have." Zhao Feng shook his head.
A light flashed in Old Fei's eyes as he stopped the disciples who were about to debate with Zhao Feng.
"Zhao Feng is right. The Evil God Crystal will attract too much attention, and it's useless to us anyway. It will only bring disaster." Old Fei agreed with and admired how Zhao Feng gave up the Evil God Crystal. Zhao Feng didn't have the greatest strength, so he used the Evil God Crystal to make Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi work for him.
"I can give you ten bathtubs of the liquid from the blood pond," Zhao Feng said after thinking for a while.
The power of this liquid was strong, but it had one major flaw – it contained the wicked power of the Evil God Crystal, which had a strong eroding force.
"Okay." Old Fei let out a breath.
The Ten Thousand Sacred Clan soon filled up ten bathtubs of liquid from the blood pond, but it wasn't even one tenth of the total amount. On top of that, they needed to refine it with a certain method before being able to use it, unlike Zhao Feng who had the little thieving cat communicating with the Evil God Crystal. Zhao Feng could even use a small amount of the wicked power to refine his body.
For the next couple days, Zhao Feng lay in the blood pond and focused on cultivating.
The blood pond was formed from the blood essence of the strongest races in the underground city, fused with the power of the Evil God Crystal. This blood was the source of the Evil God's Altar, and it could strengthen other beings.
Zhao Feng circulated his Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique and his Sacred Lightning Body to absorb the energy to the fullest.
In this period of time, Nan Gongsheng and those from the Earth Spirit Hall were all trying to find the scorpionman King, but the landscape of the underground city was too complex. If the scorpionman King focused on hiding, it would be hard to find him.
The Purple Sun Palace and the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan focused on scouring the resources remaining in the underground city. What surprised them was that, after the little thieving cat became the priest, some species came to it and gave it offerings.
Zhao Feng gave all the troublesome tasks to the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan. Afterward, the little thieving cat, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, the Purple Sun Palace, and the Earth Spirit Hall started to conquer the nearby species.
It went much more smoothly than expected. They were all extremely wary and respectful of the "Evil God's priest," and some races that were even stronger than the scorpionmen didn't dare to attack. When the little thieving cat displayed the miracles of the Evil God, these races all became obedient.
"The power of the Evil God Crystal isn't this simple," Zhao Feng murmured.
He knew a lot from the scorpionmen queen. There had been people who tried to resist the Evil God's Altar in the past, but they were killed by the underground flames or natural disasters such as earthquakes.
The little thieving cat told Zhao Feng that the priest truly did have the ability to change the climate underground, but it required a lot of the priest's energy, so it wasn't something that could be done casually.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed. Zhao Feng finally broke through to the late-stage Small Origin Core Realm with the help of the Wind Lightning bones and the blood pond. The core in his body had become bigger, and it already showed signs of crystallizing.
His improvements fell into the eyes of the other disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and they were all envious.
Is Zhao Feng not scared that his foundation will be unstable? Old Fei couldn't help but think.
Reality proved that Zhao Feng's foundation was extremely strong. Due to him cultivating the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique and the Sacred Lightning Body at the same time, his foundation was much better than other geniuses of the same cultivation.
After making this small breakthrough, Zhao Feng started focusing on the Sacred Lightning Body. Over the past few days, with the help of the blood pond, his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body was approaching the late stages of the fourth level.
Once my Sacred Lightning Body reaches the late stage of the fourth level, my physical body strength alone will be able to crush Small Origin Core Realms and Great Origin Core Realms alike. No one below the half-step King level will be my match.
Zhao Feng was filled with joy, and he was looking forward to it.
What made him even happier was that the underground city species were sending their offerings. Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat received 40% of the cut while the Earth Spirit Hall, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and the Purple Sun Palace split the remaining 60%.
Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi were still focused on finding the location of the scorpionman King.
Today, Zhao Feng took out the Dark Dragon Teeth Grass and some other treasures that were useful for body-strengthening in order to attempt a breakthrough to the late stages of the fourth level. Some of them came from the scorpionmen resource chamber and some were from the offerings.
"This should be it…." Zhao Feng soaked in the blood pond as a metallic silver-blue light glowed around him.
Within the blood pond, an invisible physical force appeared and started becoming stronger. Everyone close to him felt their bodies became heavy.
Eventually, the physical force boomed as it broke through. The nearby disciples felt their blood boil, and they almost spat out blood.
The place where Zhao Feng was lying hummed with wind and lightning, like waves crashing onto the shore.
I can kill a Small Origin Core Realm with just one punch with nothing more than my physical strength.
Zhao Feng felt the power running through his body, and this force created a dominating Intent.
The Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body didn't just train his body; when it reached a certain degree, it could also strengthen his Intent and even fuse into it. At that point in time, the soul wouldn't be his weakness like the Demigod Kun Yun.
The Demigod Kun Yun had reached the same step at his peak and managed to learn Revival from Blood, a supreme technique, but he ended up dying in the God Tribulation because of his weak soul.
Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body had reached the late stages of the fourth level. The fifth level was comparable to the Void God Realm, the sixth to the Mystic Light Realm, and the seventh would be the body of a Demigod. However, the Sacred Lightning Body was better than the original Golden Kun Sacred Body – it had an eighth level. There was even a theoretical ninth level.
The greater heights and better future were what motivated Zhao Feng to re-cultivate. Even if he hadn't been hit by the Cursed Words of Death, he would've chosen to re-cultivate.
Hu~
Zhao Feng let out a breath and slowly stood up from the blood pond. There were wary and respectful gazes from those nearby.
"Zhao Feng, this is a rare Dark Soul Stone. It is a precious Death-elemental Soul treasure." Old Fei took out two black jade-like stones, which gave off a cold Soul undulation. Weak people weren't even able to approach them.
"Soul Dao treasure? Good, very good!" Zhao Feng was overjoyed.
Zhao Feng could choose which offerings he wanted, so he said that he wanted Soul Dao treasures, which could help him recover his soul-strength.
With enough Soul Dao treasures, I can reawaken my Emperor Intent.
Zhao Feng was full of expectations.
One had to know that Zhao Feng's Emperor Intent contained the Intent of God Tribulation Lightning. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to chase after the Emperor of Death, who specialized in the Dao of the Soul and the Dao of Death.
Once his Emperor Intent reawakened, Zhao Feng's strength would increase by leaps and bounds. However, Soul Dao treasures were extremely rare, and it wasn't a good choice to try to mine them manually.
Whoosh!
A silver streak of light flashed through the air and landed in front of Zhao Feng.
The newcomer was Nan Gongsheng.
"Zhao Feng, I've slain the scorpionman King and acquired the Crystal Core of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion King."
Nan Gongsheng's breathing was rapid.

Chapter 801 - Taking the Evil God Crystal
"You've got the Crystal Core?" Zhao Feng's eyes lit up.
Nan Gongsheng took out a dark purple Crystal Core about the size of an egg.
"That's it." Zhao Feng took the Crystal Core and nodded his head.
The eyes of the elites from the three forces were filled with envy as they looked at the Crystal Core. Although it was small, it contained a True Yuan dimension and was comparable to the Crystal Core of a human Void God Realm King.
Most importantly, this Crystal Core was of the Wind and Lightning elements, which was extremely compatible with Zhao Feng's Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique. With this Crystal Core, Zhao Feng's cultivation would be able to increase rapidly. The only weakness was that it didn't also have the element of Water, otherwise Zhao Feng would be able to become stronger instantly.
"Nan Gongsheng, I will do as I promised and help you try to get the Evil God Crystal," Zhao Feng said.
Nan Gongsheng nodded his head. He had made deals with Zhao Feng before, so he believed in Zhao Feng's word.
The two walked next to the blood pond and glanced at the Evil God Crystal on the silver beam. The Evil God Crystal glittered with a blood-colored light and radiated a wicked power of temptation.
"Nan Gongsheng, I need to tell you a few things before we start," Zhao Feng said.
"What?" Nan Gongsheng stared at the Evil God Crystal without hiding the fire in his eyes.
The Evil God Crystal wasn't a substandard God Crystal; it truly contained the power of Gods.
The only difference was that the Evil God Crystal had a wicked consciousness that had the ability to affect the physical world.
Zhao Feng warned, "Firstly, it will be very risky trying to take the Evil God Crystal. Secondly, the power of the God Crystal is too profound, so it can physically affect the world. Its wicked consciousness is also not be underestimated…."
Nan Gongsheng knew the first point very clearly, and the second point made him think. Even if he did get the Evil God Crystal, he might be twisted by its wicked power.
At this moment, Gu Chaozhi from the Earth Spirit Hall arrived.
Nan Gongsheng got the Crystal Core first, but it's not like I don't have a chance. Gu Chaozhi watched from a corner. He heard what they said. It was obvious that the Evil God Crystal wasn't something normal people could obtain. In his current state, even Zhao Feng didn't want it.
"I've made my decision." Nan Gongsheng took a deep breath as decisiveness filled his eyes.
Zhao Feng wasn't surprised by this decision; he saw the willpower and the desire for power in Nan Gongsheng's eyes.
"Zhao Feng, you've surpassed me by too much; I can only look up to your legend. The Evil God Crystal will be able to change my destiny." Battle-intent surged from Nan Gongsheng's eyes.
He had complex emotions regarding Zhao Feng. They were both part of the same generation, but only one of them had reached the peak of the Cang Ocean and became an unparalleled Emperor that even Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords were wary of.
Hearing those words, the bodies of Gu Chaozhi, Kong Feiling, the purple-robed youth, and the others shook.
"That Zhao Feng… what kind of existence is he?"
"Even someone as strong as Nan Gongsheng said that he can only look up to his legend?"
Everyone's heart shook. The strength Nan Gongsheng displayed was enough to enter the top one hundred of the Imperial Genius rankings, and a prodigy like that said he could only look up to Zhao Feng? At this moment, the handsome youth next to the blood pond was shrouded in mystery.
"How… how is that possible?" Old Fei, Kong Feiling, Huang Yunhu, and company from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan were dazed.
Cold sweat appeared on Gu Chaozhi's forehead. He felt that this Zhao Feng was too mysterious and terrifying, and he couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't attack Zhao Feng before.
"I can only promise to do my best to try to get the Evil God Crystal for you." Zhao Feng let out a breath.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao, I believe you. I even heard that you were the one that revived the Demigod Kun Yun," Nan Gongsheng said in a probing tone.
"What? Demigod Kun Yun? He's come out already?" This time, it was Zhao Feng's turn to be surprised.
Nan Gongsheng nodded his head. "The Demigod Kun Yun has revived, and he made a deal with the True Martial Sacred Land; he is now in control of the Demigod Forgotten Garden."
He wanted to test Zhao Feng. After all, it was only a rumor that the Demigod Kun Yun had been revived. Zhao Feng didn't deny anything.
"Demigod!"
The disciples and elites of the three forces couldn't help but take in cold breaths. According to those words, Zhao Feng had revived a Demigod. How shocking was that?
"Demigod Kun Yun!?" Old Fei was stunned. He seemed to know some more information about the Demigod Kun Yun.
Demigods had only appeared in three-star and four-star forces before. Back then, Demigod Kun Yun was incredibly strong. His name was known even among four-star forces. A legend like this had been revived by Zhao Feng?
Zhao Feng then talked with Nan Gongsheng with his Divine Sense.
Zhao Feng learned that the Demigod Kun Yun had entered the Demigod Forgotten Garden through some special method and connected with the remnant Demigod Intent in there. In this situation, even Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords would be unable to enter by force.
Of course, the Demigod Kun Yun was still resting, and he would take a while to recover his peak strength.
Zhao Feng let out a breath after he heard this. At the moment, the child Demigod definitely wouldn't know that Zhao Feng was re-cultivating, so he would still be on guard against the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor.
In the blood pond next to the Evil God's Altar:
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat suddenly waved the staff in its paws, and the Evil God Crystal on the silver beam released a wicked purple-and-blood-colored glow.
"You can do it."
Zhao Feng was about to use his Magnificent Power, but he gave up as he remembered that Nan Gongsheng specialized in Space.
Whoosh!
Nan Gongsheng waved his hand, and a silver light formed a whirlpool that sucked away the liquid in the blood pond. It was required later in the process, and Nan Gongsheng would give it to Zhao Feng afterward.
"We've finished the first step." Zhao Feng smiled and nodded.
The reason they took away the blood pond was so they could isolate the Evil God Crystal.
They also needed the little thieving cat, who was currently the Evil God's priest, to communicate with the Evil God Crystal, or else the Evil God Crystal would be able to cause a lot of trouble with the blood pond.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Nan Gongsheng utterly destroyed the altar; smoke and dust blew everywhere. The Evil God Crystal floated in the air, and its wicked power became weaker.
At this instant, the disciples and elites of the Earth Spirit Hall, Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and Purple Sun Palace were all watching closely. If there was a chance, they didn't mind interfering, but at the moment, none of them dared to interrupt the combination of Zhao Feng, Nan Gongsheng, and the little thieving cat. Zhao Feng was especially mysterious; Gu Chaozhi and company felt that he was unfathomable.
"This is the critical step." Zhao Feng's expression became solemn.
He needed to bind and take the Evil God Crystal. This step was the most dangerous because any power that held "enmity" toward the Evil God Crystal would be counterattacked. The only advantage they had was that the little thieving cat was in control of the Evil God Staff and had the ability to communicate with the Evil God Crystal.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws and said that it couldn't stop the Evil God Crystal from counterattacking – it could only limit its attacks.
"Come!" Nan Gongsheng suddenly opened his palm, and a whirlpool of silver started to slowly expand. A mysterious power started pulling the Evil God Crystal.
Weng~~
The Evil God Crystal suddenly released a wicked purple-and-blood-colored light that swept toward Nan Gongsheng.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved the staff, but that only weakened and slowed the counterattack of the Evil God Crystal by a little bit.
"Eye of Ice Soul!" Zhao Feng's dreamy purple left eye suddenly gave off a freezing blue light, and his hair suddenly became purple.
"I didn't think that Zhao Feng had hidden such a powerful eye-bloodline!"
The disciples of the three forces were stunned as freezing cold power covered the Evil God Crystal.
Under normal situations of such intense cold, the Evil God Crystal would shatter, but Zhao Feng's Eye of Ice Soul only froze the soul. It didn't freeze the Evil God Crystal itself, only the wicked consciousness inside it. Its wicked consciousness was just another type of mental energy.
Bo~~
The Evil God Crystal radiated a purple-and-blood-colored haze that shot toward Zhao Feng, but an invisible physical force appeared around Zhao Feng.
The power from the Evil God Crystal was extremely profound; it suppressed Yuan Qi. However, Zhao Feng's physical strength was unique and more resilient. The strength of the Evil God Crystal's counterattack also depended on how threatening and strong the attack was.
Peng! Peng!
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were sent flying after resisting for a breath or two, but luckily, the little thieving cat managed to communicate with the Evil God Crystal and weaken the counterattack.
"It's working."
Zhao Feng saw that a half-transparent layer of ice covered the surface of the Evil God Crystal.
No matter how strong the God Crystal was, it was just a physical object if Zhao Feng's Eye of Ice Soul restricted its soul. From the looks of it, the Eye of Ice Soul could counter the wicked consciousness inside the Evil God Crystal.
Nan Gongsheng revealed a look of joy as he saw hope. He took a deep breath and flew to the Evil God Crystal, then moved both his hands. A faint silver image started to appear alongside a disturbance in space.
This was Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain.
Weng~
The faint silver dimension twisted and formed a large hole. From the hole came a powerful suction force.
"Eye of Ice Soul!"
Zhao Feng circulated his eye-bloodline power to the maximum, and the ice on the surface of the Evil God Crystal became thicker.
Miao!
The little thieving cat suddenly threw the staff into the silver hole. The purple-and-blood-colored treasure stone on the staff was connected to the Evil God Crystal, and the liquid from the blood pond was also in Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain.
Under the strong suction force, the Evil God Crystal entered Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain.
"Did it work?" Nan Gongsheng spat out a mouthful of blood as he withstood the counterattack, but his face was filled with joy.
However, an old voice sounded at that moment:
"Stop! You can't take the Evil God Crystal away or else it will bring disaster to the underground city, and even the entire Divine Illusion Dimension."

Chapter 802 - Rank Nine of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races
"Stop! You can't take the Evil God Crystal away or else it will bring disaster to the underground city, and even the entire Divine Illusion Dimension," an old voice sounded from the entrance that led to the snakemen territory.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng looked over. They succeeded in taking the Evil God Crystal, and it was now in Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain.
As soon as those words sounded, an old snakeman appeared. The snakeman had white hair and wrinkled skin. He had a hunched back, and it required a lot of effort for him to walk.
Everyone revealed a weird expression when their gaze landed on the snakeman elder.
"Hehe, old snakeman King that's about to enter the grave, do you really think you can decide where the Evil God Crystal goes?" Zhao Feng laughed lightly.
Hearing that, everyone broke out into discussion. It was hard to imagine that this old snakeman who couldn't even walk properly was a Void God Realm King. Even Nan Gongsheng and Gu Chaozhi didn't sense that immediately, but Zhao Feng did.
"I am the previous Evil God's priest," the snakeman elder with white hair said in a raspy voice as he gave a deep glance toward this purple-haired youth who was only at the Small Origin Core Realm. The aura of his soul had reached its end and yet Zhao Feng could still see through him.
Gu Chaozhi and the elites of the three forces all felt their hearts shake, and they became even warier of Zhao Feng.
If this snakeman elder with white hair was the previous priest, then he would be at the Void God Realm at the least.
"Hmph, I won't hand over the Evil God Crystal for any reason. What's the life or death of the underground city got to do with me?" Nan Gongsheng was emotionless. He paid a big price to finally move the Evil God Crystal into his spatial dimension.
"Old priest, you risked your life to come and stop us?" Gu Chaozhi was interested. Now that the Evil God Crystal was already in Nan Gongsheng's hands, Gu Chaozhi didn't mind some new variables.
Nan Gongsheng's eyebrows furrowed, but he also wanted to know more about the Evil God Crystal.
"My lifespan has reached its limit, so it doesn't matter if I die or not, but I must tell you something," the old priest with white hair said sadly.
At this instant in time, Zhao Feng, Nan Gongsheng, Gu Chaozhi, and company were silent, and they felt a sadness in their hearts. They weren't sympathetic toward the priest – they were respectful toward the laws of Death.
Everyone knew that there was a limit to life. For example, Void God Realm Kings could usually live for several thousand years. After this amount of time passed, one's soul and life would wither and die. Even stealing another body and re-cultivating couldn't stop it.
Putting aside Void God Realm Kings, even Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords and Demigods could die from the passage of time. The only difference was that they had a longer lifespan. As for Zhao Feng, his lifespan hadn't changed much after taking another body. The only thing that could help would be items similar to the Immortal Springs Wine or breaking through to a higher realm.
Of course, ancient Emperors that specialized in the element of Death, such as the Emperor of Death, could live several times longer than others of the same cultivation.
"You may know that there is the occasional disaster in the underground city, such as lava or the Fire of the Earth, and the Evil God Crystal can affect and stabilize this power," the old priest with white hair slowly said.
Everyone else was dead-silent because they knew these were the last words of a dying elder. They were nice to someone who was about to die.
"Are they not natural?" Zhao Feng suddenly realized something. He knew that every race was extremely respectful to and wary of the Evil God's Crystal, and it was true that the Evil God's priest had the ability to control the disasters by using the Evil God Crystal's power.
"That's just the surface." The old priest with white hair took a deep breath, and his expression became solemn. "Only the priests and a small number of people know that there is actually an even bigger 'disaster' underground."
Bigger disaster?
All the disciples and elites felt an unusual atmosphere. Right at this moment, everyone felt a shaking sensation from under the Evil God's Altar.
Peng! Peng!
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye thumped. At this instant, Kong Feiling's and Zhao Feng's Imperial Dao bloodlines both trembled in fear.
What kind of aura could make Imperial Dao bloodlines tremble in fear?
"Can you feel it?" The old priest's face was bitter and his eyes were full of worry.
"What… what is underground?"
The elites of the three forces felt uneasy. It was as if an aura of Destruction was slowly awakening.
"You should know that there is a race called the Destruction Dragon Race, ranked within the top ten of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races," the old priest with white hair said.
Destruction Dragon Race!? Zhao Feng, Nan Gongsheng, Gu Chaozhi, and company were stunned.
"Ranked ninth among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races… the Destruction Dragon Race!" Old Fei exclaimed as fear spread.
"Eighth place is the Golden Crow Race, and ninth is the Destruction Dragon Race…."
Everyone present came from two-star or three-star powers, so they knew a lot. Anything ranked within the top ten of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races wasn't a joke.
"What a joke! If it really was the Destruction Dragon Race, they could destroy the entire Divine Illusion Dimension with just a breath," a cold laugh came from a handsome youth with purple hair.
The speaker was Zhao Feng. He knew a lot about the abilities and the battle-power of every race since he had read the Ten Thousand Ancient Races ranking book.
In reality, the Ten Thousand Ancient Races weren't ranked by pure battle-power. For example, the Heaven's Legacy race weren't strong, but their wisdom was unparalleled. They captured the Light Race to try to create a time machine, and they even had a plan to revive the Ancient Race.
However, the Destruction Dragon Race definitely had strong battle-power.
The eighth-ranked Golden Crow Race only had one crow remaining, and it supplied the light and warmth for the entire Fan Universe with its enormous body.
The Destruction Dragon Race was said to be the nemesis of the Golden Crow Race. According to what Zhao Feng knew, this race lived for destruction, and their final aim was to destroy the world.
"Old snake, how dare you trick us!?" All the disciples of the three forces let out a breath, and cold sweat appeared on Nan Gongsheng's forehead. The legendary Destruction Dragon Race was too terrifying.
The old priest with white hair smiled bitterly. "The true Destruction Dragon Race has become extinct, but there is a Black Destruction Serpent Dragon sealed underground that has a faint bloodline of the Destruction Dragon Race."
Hearing that, the hearts of all the present disciples shook. There was a Black Destruction Serpent Dragon underground that contained a faint bloodline of the Destruction Dragon Race?
"Back then, this Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was sealed by the Gods. Although it isn't even at 1% of its full strength due to the passing of time, the seal has become much weaker as well." The old priest sighed.
Boom!
The ground under the Evil God's Altar started to shake and become hot. The roar of a dragon that seemed to have been suppressed for countless years sounded, and flames of Destruction were waiting to destroy and engulf everything.
The hearts of all the disciples jumped. Fear and panic spread throughout the air.
Peng! Peng!
Zhao Feng felt his God's Spiritual Eye twitch in warning. One thing was for sure – the old priest that was about to die had no reason to lie to them.
"The disasters are all created by the Destruction Black Serpent Snake struggling, and the Evil God Crystal can calm the disasters and stabilize the seal." The old priest let out a long breath as he sat down and told them the full story.
Zhao Feng's and Nan Gongsheng's eyes twinkled.
"I won't hand over the Evil God Crystal. It's not a true Destruction Dragon sealed down there, so it isn't unrivalled. Furthermore, it's not even at its peak." Nan Gongsheng was very straightforward. He didn't care about whether the underground city lived or died. All he wanted was power.
"Old priest, you've come too late. We just took the Evil God Crystal away. It'll be much too difficult to put it back," Zhao Feng shook his head and said with a sigh. He had communicated with the little thieving cat on his shoulder.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws and showed that the purple-and-blood-colored treasure stone on the staff had cracks in it.
The main reason they could take away the Evil God Crystal was because of the blood pond and the staff in Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain. Zhao Feng's methods and Nan Gongsheng's spatial techniques were just support. More precisely said, Nan Gongsheng hadn't actually obtained the Evil God Crystal yet, he had only put it in another place for now. It was too late to take it back out.
"You… you…." The old priest was unable to speak properly and acted as if he had lost his soul. He didn't expect them to have the ability to move the Evil God Crystal before he even arrived.
"I'm sorry, please rest well," Zhao Feng said slightly regretfully and sympathetically.
Wah!
The old priest let out a breath as his life came to an end. In the very last instant, the old priest burned his soul and body, giving off an aura close to an Emperor.
"Not good!"
The disciples and elites all felt a powerful pressure bear down on them. Even Nan Gongsheng's and Gu Chaozhi's expression changed. They thought that this old priest was going to kill them.
Only Zhao Feng stood still without panicking.
"Everyone in the underground city, leave. Disaster… is coming." The old priest's sad voice resounded across every corner of the underground world. Before he died, he used his remaining power to tell the world.
Zhao Feng admired him, but he murmured, "The existence of the Evil God Crystal was just slowing the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's inevitable escape."
No matter how strong the Evil God Crystal was, it was just a Primal Crystal Stone in the end. It wasn't even the core of the seal. All it could do was slow the serpent dragon down.
Boom! Boom! Bam~~~~!
Continuous shaking came from the underground world as lava started spreading in some places.
Roar~~~~
The roar of an enraged dragon sounded from under the ground.
"The world shall shake in front of the Destruction races! Ancient God Xie Yang, I will devour your palace and then your domain world…!"

Chapter 803 - Black Destruction Serpent Dragon
Boom~~~~!
The underground world shook as lava and flames surged from the ground.
Although some species had already been warned by the old priest before he died, they just didn't have enough time.
"The world shall shake in front of the Destruction races! Ancient God Xie Yang, I will devour your palace and then your domain world…!" a voice sounded from the depths as the roar of an enraged dragon echoed throughout the underground world. Even the surface world felt a slight trembling sensation.
"Retreat!"
"Not good! The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon is about to break through the seal!"
The elites of the three forces panicked and started searching for some escape routes.
Whoosh!
Nan Gongsheng was the fastest; he turned into a streak of silver that sped upward.
Lightning Wings Flying Technique! The wings behind Zhao Feng's back fluttered quickly as he flew into the air.
Nan Gongsheng and Zhao Feng were the first to react, and they disappeared in an instant.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao…!" Liu Tianfan and company couldn't help but exclaim as they saw Nan Gongsheng and Zhao Feng disappear.
"Don't bother with him. We need to retreat from the underground world," Old Fei ordered as he led the way.
The elites of the Earth Spirit Hall and the Purple Sun Palace quickly tried to find a path to the surface.
In just a short while, the lava was spreading everywhere. If it was just the power of the lava, it wouldn't much of a threat to the disciples. Lava was really only dangerous to the various species that lived underground.
However, the lava contained Fire of the Earth, which could burn normal Origin Core Realms into ashes. Fire of the Earth could even threaten Void God Realm Kings.
"Looks like the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon still needs a bit of time to escape…." Gu Chaozhi murmured.
The shaking sensation and crashing sounds continued. One could roughly estimate what was happening in the underground world based on the trembling sensation and how often it shook.
"All of you, leave the underground world first," Gu Chaozhi ordered.
There were several half-step Kings from the Earth Spirit Hall that were very experienced.
Whoosh!
Gu Chaozhi turned into a streak of lightning and chased after Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng.
The Evil God Crystal has only just been transferred to Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain, and there could still be some variables, Gu Chaozhi thought.
Within an hour, the disciples of the three forces had managed to retreat from the underground world.
Back in the surface world where the winds were howling:
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Nan Gongsheng and Zhao Feng appeared in the desert.
"Zhao Feng, here is your blood pond." Nan Gongsheng used his spatial technique and returned the blood pond to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng nodded his head but didn't leave immediately.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao, do you have something on your mind?" Nan Gongsheng asked. He could guess that Zhao Feng had acquired something and started to re-cultivate.
"I have a plan, but I don't know if Senior Martial Brother Nan is courageous enough or not." Zhao Feng smiled, and then they started to discuss with their Divine Senses.
"You… want to take on the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon?" Nan Gongsheng couldn't help but take a deep breath. Zhao Feng's plan was huge.
"Fortune coexists with danger. Furthermore, I believe that Senior Martial Brother Nan needs a protector to help control and use the Evil God Crystal," Zhao Feng said confidently.
Nan Gongsheng's expression changed a few times, but he nodded his head after hesitating for a while.
Whoosh!
Gu Chaozhi from the Earth Spirit Hall appeared nearby and gave them a greeting.
Nan Gongsheng knew that Gu Chaozhi still hadn't given up on the Evil God Crystal, but at this moment, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng just formed an alliance – they decided to team up and split the profits from the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Gu Chaozhi's heart shook when he saw the two talking so closely. Nan Gongsheng by himself was already incredibly strong, and he had no chance of winning against the immeasurable Zhao Feng as well.
Seeing the situation, Gu Chaozhi had to momentarily retreat.
"Zhao Feng!"
"Junior Martial Brother Zhao…."
Old Fei, Kong Feiling, and the others from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan arrived.
"Old Fei and fellow Martial Brothers and Sisters, I think all of you should retreat and get far away from the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon," Zhao Feng warned. His God's Spiritual Eye could see what was happening underground; based on the shaking, it looked like it wouldn't be long before the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon could see the sun again.
"Zhao Feng, then you…?" The expressions of Kong Feiling, Liu Tianfan, and company changed.
"Nan Gongsheng and I have other stuff to do. We shall meet again if we are destined to," Zhao Feng said very straightforwardly, then flew away with Nan Gongsheng into the distance.
"That Zhao Feng has no conscience at all."
"He doesn't even care about whether we live or die. He only cares about himself."
The people from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan said in dissatisfaction.
Only Old Fei's expression was the same as usual as he spoke with a sigh, "Maybe we're just dragging him down. Just think of him as any other normal Small Origin Core Realm disciple."
He could tell that Zhao Feng wanted to leave and work with Nan Gongsheng when the two of them escaped from the underground world together.
Hearing that, no one else complained. If Zhao Feng was just a normal Small Origin Core Realm, then it didn't really matter if he stayed in the group or not. If they thought about it like this, they felt balanced again.
Boom!
As time passed, the shaking sensation from underground became stronger and stronger. The group from the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan retreated from the source of the shaking as quickly as they could.
The groups from the Earth Spirit Hall and the Purple Sun Palace also headed away from the shaking.
Around four hours later:
Boom! Crack!
A tremendous explosion sounded from underground, then the screams of countless beings. A large chasm started to appear in the earth, and volcanoes spat out lava as a surge of Destructive aura appeared.
In this instant, countless beings within several dozen thousand miles felt a strong Destructive aura that made them unable to breathe.
Wu~~~~ Roar~
The roar of a dragon resounded across Heaven and Earth as the earth shook and volcanoes continued to erupt.
Hu~~
A serpent dragon around five hundred yards long flew out from the ground. It had cold, room-sized eyes, and it was covered in ancient black scales. Looking closely at it, one could see thick black chains wrapped around its body that clanged as it flew.
The black-scaled serpent dragon created an enormous shadow that could be seen from a thousand miles away. A disastrous aura radiated from the black-scaled serpent dragon, which pressured everything within dozens of thousands of miles.
In the desert, some retreating disciples felt their legs go soft. The bloodline aura of the Destruction Dragon Race made countless existences tremble in fear and panic.
"So strong! So that's the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon…."
The members of the three forces that had already retreated far away felt their hearts shake. They felt that the strength of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon surpassed even Void God Realm Emperors.
"Die, ants!" The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon slashed out its claw, creating a faint black whirlwind that swept across ten miles.
"Arghhhh~~~~!"
Some species that had just retreated from the underground world faced a disaster; the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's whirlwind instantly killed hundreds of ratmen, wolfmen, lizardmen, and more.
There were members of the underground species dying every moment. Most of them died to the lava, while a small number were killed by the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon directly.
"A bunch of ants!" The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's enormous black-scaled body flew by, and hundreds upon thousands of underground denizens were crushed to death.
Crack!
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's claw made the earth shake, and lightning flashed through the air.
"Black Serpent Dragon, the Evil God will punish you!"
Some underground experts who had fallen into despair started to counterattack. One of them was a Void God Realm giant who led a group of Great Origin Core Realms and half-step Kings in a charge against the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.
The Void God Realm giant was around three stories tall, and it had great defense.
Boom!
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon flicked its tail and crushed all of the underground elites into meat paste.
Crack!
The Void God Realm giant was split into pieces, and his defense that had almost reached the level of a Emperor was unable to block even one blow from the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.
Hu~~
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon opened its mouth and released a ball of faint black flames that turned the giant into ashes. These flames that it spat out didn't even seem to be the true Destruction Dragon Flame.
Wu~~ Roar~~
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon used its body to crush more nearby underground experts.
Bam! Bam! Bam~~~~!
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was disaster incarnate as it destroyed the underground city.
It became calm soon enough after releasing its rage. There were still experts of the underground species running, but the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was too disdainful of chasing after and killing them.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon suddenly started to struggle in the air as it tried to use its unrivalled power to struggle out of the thick black chains. However, the materials of these chains were extremely unique; the more it struggled, the more helpless it became.
"This Yuan Sealing Divine Chain has restricted most of my strength. I can't even absorb Heaven Earth Yuan Qi…."
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's struggling was useless.
"Evil God Xie Yang, your world has been forgotten. I will go to your palace later and find the key. After I recover my strength, I will destroy this world!" The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's angry roars sounded.
Whoosh!
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon turned into a black shadow as it shot into the clouds.
Although the elites of the three human forces had already retreated a long distance away, they could still feel what happened. Maybe the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was too disdainful of killing these weaklings, and the slaughter a moment ago was just to vent its rage.
Its main focus right now was to get rid of the Yuan Sealing Divine Chain and become stronger.
Hu~
The elites of the three forces felt the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon moving further and further away, and they let out a long breath.
At a certain moment, within a concealed cave:
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two figures appeared. It was a handsome youth with purple hair and a youth with dark black clothes.
"Zhao Feng, you're really thinking of following the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon?" Nan Gongsheng was slightly scared.
"We don't need to follow very closely. We can just follow the trail of destruction. This black serpent dragon definitely knows some secrets of the Gods and the Divine Illusion Dimension," Zhao Feng said calmly as his eyes twinkled.

Chapter 804 - Xuanyuan Wen
Nan Gongsheng and Zhao Feng talked in private in front of the sand cave.
Nan Gongsheng was surprised by what Zhao Feng was thinking – follow the serpent dragon. They both saw the strength of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon; even Void God Realm Kings could be killed instantly. Furthermore, that was with the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon having been sealed for dozens of millennia and being extremely weak at the moment. It wasn't even at one hundredth of its peak strength. There was even a Yuan Sealing Divine Chain that was still binding it and limiting its strength even more.
Once the black serpent dragon recovered some of its strength, even Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords would need to be wary.
Ceng! Ceng!
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng carefully followed the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon from behind. They didn't dare to get too close to it; they maintained a distance of at least several thousand miles. Safety first no matter what.
Luckily, the aura of Destruction radiating from the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon terrified everything within dozens of miles, and it could be easily sensed.
On its way, other geniuses and elites saw the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon with their own eyes and trembled in fear. What was even more shocking was that two people were following about ten thousand miles behind the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.
However, plan and reality differed. At the beginning, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were scared that they would get too close, but they realized that the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was becoming faster and faster. Maybe the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was just feeling a little stiff when it broke out of the seal, and now it was raising its speed as it loosened up.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng started to feel tired. The Divine Illusion Dimension was a high-level place, and the pressure of Heaven and Earth was strong within it. Even jumping into the air used much more energy than it did in the outside world. On the other hand, the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's body was extremely strong, so it could easily fly through the air.
Half a day later, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng lost track of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon and its destructive momentum.
"Don't worry, we can follow its aura." Zhao Feng was confident. A while back, he chased after the Emperor of Death for a long time, so he was confident in his tracking abilities. One of the God's Spiritual Eye's specialties was tracking.
Even though the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's destructive momentum had disappeared, Zhao Feng could still find traces and guess the rough direction of where the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon went.
The two decided to travel at a steady speed. Nan Gongsheng even had the time to try to interact with the Evil God Crystal in his spatial domain.
He wasn't able to control or use the power of the Evil God Crystal right away, but since the God Crystal was already in his spatial domain, he could try to slowly assimilate it.
Several days later, Zhao Feng suddenly felt the disturbance of a wicked power come from Nan Gongsheng. If it wasn't for the fact that he was close to Nan Gongsheng, he wouldn't have been able to sense this.
"Nan Gongsheng, if you assimilate the Evil God Crystal and turn it into your core, its wicked power will first affect your spatial domain, then your Crystal Core. At the end, even your attitude will be twisted," Zhao Feng warned.
"I understand. I will slowly refine and then excrete the wicked power," Nan Gongsheng said confidently.
At the moment, the Evil God Crystal was in the core of his spatial domain. This meant that the power of the Evil God Crystal was slowly assimilating his spatial domain as well.
Nan Gongsheng was overjoyed when he felt himself become stronger. He didn't believe that the power of the Evil God Crystal could affect he who was – he was a Void God Realm King. Even if it did, he could ask some Emperors or even some Sacred Lords to help him when he returned to the clan.
Elsewhere in the Divine Illusion Dimension, there was a crystal-blue lake in the center of a forest. The elites of several forces stood around the lake. They were either from three-star or four-star forces.
In the air above the lake stood a normal male wearing a t-shirt, and he had his hands behind his back. His appearance was average, but his eyes were deep as if they had experienced time and samsara.
Three Void God Realm Kings stood opposite him, consisting of two young prodigies and a middle-aged male in yellow.
"Xin Wuheng, do you really think that you can fight against three Kings and take the Blue Crystal Tear by yourself?" One of the youths had an ugly expression. His robes were slightly damaged, and his hair was ruffled. In terms of strength, he wasn't much weaker than Gu Chaozhi from the Earth Spirit Hall.
All three Kings were injured to various degrees, and they looked at the male in the t-shirt with respect and wariness.
Xin Wuheng, who was the center of attention, remained calm and spoke slowly, "One Domain-level King and two early-stage Void God Realms aren't my match."
"Xin Wuheng, don't think that you can bully us~~~!" the middle-aged male with yellow robes roared as he spread his arms, and two shining yellow dragon figures intertwined with great agility.
Weng~~
At the same moment, a heavy muddy-yellow spatial domain appeared around the three Kings.
Xin Wuheng smiled. "A spatial domain at that level isn't enough."
Facing the three Kings, he merely raised one hand and kept the other behind his back.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Green trees appeared in the air and transformed into spikes as they stabbed through the Earth-elemental spatial domain of the yellow-robed male.
Wah!
The yellow robed middle-aged male spat out a mouthful of blood as the spatial domain he had worked on for several years almost shattered.
"This Xin Wuheng has only just reached the early stages of the Void God Realm, but he can already use so many different types of spatial domain. What kind of monster is he?"
The members of the forces nearby were stunned.
"Have you realized that Xin Wuheng has only used one hand from the beginning?" The eyes of a pretty girl in rainbow-colored clothes twinkled.
Indeed, Xin Wuheng only used one hand to fight the three Kings.
"As expected of the genius ranked 39th on the Imperial Genius rankings! That Xin Wuheng's true strength is probably even greater than his current rank would suggest," a half-step King couldn't help but exclaim.
Bam! Peng! Boom~~~~
Xin Wuheng and the three Kings instantly exchanged several blows, and about ten half-step Kings nearby attacked him from afar.
Facing all of this, Xin Wuheng remained as calm as water and still only used one hand to face all these experts.
Boom! Boom! Peng~~~~!
The three Kings were suddenly pushed back and sent flying by a weird five-colored spatial domain.
"Xin Wuheng, you win…." The young King wiped the blood off his mouth.
Xin Wuheng probably hadn't even used his full strength yet. Everyone believed in his strength.
Xin Wuheng smiled. "Then this Blue Crystal Tear is mine."
The Blue Crystal Tear was not a normal treasure. It could also increase one's state of existence and soul-strength.
With this Blue Crystal Tear, Xin Wuheng's early-stage Void God Realm cultivation would be able to be consolidated.
Right at this moment, the unexpected happened.
Hu~~
A Destructive aura appeared in the air, dark clouds appeared, and lightning hummed in the air. The earth started to shake, and volcanoes erupted.
"What… what is that aura!?"
The elites present felt their souls and bodies tremble in fear.
As time passed, the aura of disaster became stronger, and an ancient dragon bloodline appeared.
"Dragon bloodline? Such a pure Destructive aura." Even Xin Wuheng's forehead twitched.
The group stared into the distance and faintly saw the image of a large black dragon that destroyed everything in its path.
"Not good!" Xin Wuheng seemed to see something, and he quickly disappeared into the forest near the lake.
A while later, the body of an enormous black-scaled dragon approached the forest.
"Ants of the outside world!" The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon slashed its claws in disdain.
Hu~ Shua!
A faint black tornado instantly formed and expanded by ten miles… dozens of miles… a hundred miles… several hundred miles.
"Run…! What kind of terrifying monster is this?"
"That black serpent dragon seems to have the bloodline of the Destruction Dragon Race!"
The disciples and elites of the various forces scattered so they wouldn't all be killed by the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon in one blow.
Big chunks of the limitless forest were turned into ashes. A large number of beasts and animals were also killed. A small number of disciples that were unable to escape were slain as well.
Whoosh!
The shadow of an enormous dragon passed by, and from the looks of it, the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had only thrown a casual attack. It didn't put any thought into these tiny "dots."
Half a day later, on top of a mound in the depths of the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Several large "mound monsters" as big as mountains were attacking an elegant and handsome youth. These mound monsters were similar to the ones Zhao Feng had met in the Floating Crest Palace, but they were up to ten times bigger and had ancient auras.
"Each of these Mound Kings have battle-power close to a Peak-tier King, and their defense is monstrous…."
The elegant youth furrowed his eyebrows.
Each Mound King had a strong gravitational domain that would affect anyone within range. Putting aside fighting, early-stage Void God Realm Kings wouldn't even be able to walk properly in front of these Mound Kings.
There were four or five Mound Kings attacking the elegant youth right now.
"Chaotic God Technique – Mark of Heaven!" the elegant youth exclaimed as two of his fingers drew something in the air.
In the next instant, dozens of crystalline beams appeared in the air and stacked on top of each other.
Shu Shu Shu Shu Shu~~
The nearby Mound Kings were instantly ripped into pieces.
At the same time, a scarlet head appeared from a distant mound. The scarlet-colored head had a pair of horns, scaled skin, and beady green eyes. It stared at the elegant youth in front.
"That Xuanyuan Wen is indeed worthy of being the prodigy of the four-star Heaven Hanging Palace. He's already comprehended an incomplete Heaven-grade divine technique," the scarlet head murmured.
Shua!
After slaying the mound monsters, Xuanyuan Wen took their cores and continued to advance.
"I'm almost at the center of the Divine Illusion Dimension… the ancient mysterious palace." Xuanyuan Wen took a deep breath as he gazed toward the front.
Being the prodigy of a four-star superpower, he knew more information than normal forces. Luckily for him, this important central piece of the Divine Illusion Dimension had connected to the area close to the continent zone.
Right at this moment in time, the Destructive aura of a dragon appeared from the other side of the clouds, and the amount of force emanating from it was enough to cause everything within dozens of miles to shake. Even Xuanyuan Wen felt his bloodline and strength become suppressed.
"What a terrifying aura. What is it? Its target… seems to be the ancient mysterious palace as well!"

Chapter 805 - Ancient Mysterious Palace
"Its target… seems to be the ancient mysterious palace as well!"
Xuanyuan Wen's gaze landed on the large shadow of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon, which was charging toward the depths of the Divine Illusion Dimension.
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon released an aura of Destruction wherever it went, causing countless beings to tremble and shake in fear. Even someone as strong as Xuanyuan Wen felt the pressure and didn't dare to approach.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Wen revealed a thoughtful expression. The ancient mysterious palace of the Divine Illusion Dimension was not something that many people from the lord dynasty knew about. When the Divine Illusion Dimension and continent zone connected, this place was at the very center. Normally, no one would be able to reach the ancient mysterious palace.
However, at this instant, the sudden appearance of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon destroyed Xuanyuan Wen's plans for the ancient mysterious palace. He wouldn't be able to hide the existence of the palace from everyone else anymore; the momentum of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was simply too strong.
"There are advantages and disadvantages." Xuanyuan Wen smiled. "With the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon leading the way, it might be able to destroy all the laws and arrays in the ancient mysterious palace."
Crack!
He took out a unique token and crushed it. A strong but hidden undulation surged toward another part of the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Most messaging functions would be heavily limited in the Divine Illusion Dimension, but some could still be used.
Xuanyuan Wen then followed the direction of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.
At the same moment in time, elsewhere in the Divine Illusion Dimension, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were still following steadily from behind, occasionally taking a break. The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon became faster and faster, and it easily reached the speed of an Emperor. Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were unable to catch up.
Zhao Feng was extremely skilled in tracking, so he wasn't scared of losing track of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon. In reality, the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had flown without any fear or wariness, so anyone that had even a little experience in tracking would be able to follow it.
"As I thought, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi here is becoming denser. We're reaching the center of the Divine Illusion Dimension." Zhao Feng looked toward the distance.
The beasts they had met on the way were becoming stronger as well.
Of course, there was a lot of fortune on the way as well, and they occasionally saw the figures of others from the outside world.
The point of connection into the Divine Illusion Dimension was very big, so all the forces from the lord dynasty and the oceans nearby were able to enter. There were at least several hundred two-star forces that had entered, and this was a conservative number, not even counting those from major families.
Of course, not many forces were able to send in Void God Realm Kings unless they were at least a three-star force or from the Eight Big Families.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng landed on a hill, then started to rest. In order to make sure they could handle any emergencies, they didn't want to expend too much of their Yuan Qi.
Instead of resting, it was better to call it cultivating. Zhao Feng took out the King-level Crystal Core of the Purple Wind Lightning Lion and started to cultivate the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique.
This forgotten dimension still had its original landscape, and the Yuan Qi here was much better than the outside world. Cultivating here was much more efficient than in the outside world. Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye found some plants that were extinct in the outside world on the way as well.
With the help of the Wind Lightning core, Zhao Feng's cultivation was slowly and steadily increasing.
The Wind Lightning Crystal Core contained a Wind Lightning True Yuan dimension, and it was very compatible with Zhao Feng. In just a short while, Zhao Feng's Yuan Qi recovered, and the size and quality of his Crystal Core were increasing.
I still need some time to break through to the Great Origin Core Realm, Zhao Feng thought.
After all, the Origin Core Realm was a long process of accumulation, and the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique wasn't a normal skill.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Feng decided to alter the path of his cultivation. He stopped focusing on the quantity and started focusing on the quality of his True Yuan.
The core within Zhao Feng's dantian showed more signs of crystallizing.
I'll first raise the quality of my True Yuan to the Great Origin Core Realm. Zhao Feng had a target.
The reason he did this was because he would be able to become stronger within a shorter amount of time and gain more explosive strength.
To reach this goal, Zhao Feng entered the Ancient Dream Realm.
Shua!
Zhao Feng's consciousness entered the whirlpool in his Soul Sea. In the next instant, he stepped onto an ancient piece of land. The pressure here was far stronger than the Divine Illusion Dimension, but with the force of his Sacred Lightning Body, he could easily walk around here.
There were still several Spiritual Fruits on the tree, and most of them were ripe. The python and bird were both still guarding.
Zhao Feng took a fully ripe Ancient Dream Realm fruit and took some bites out of it.
The Ancient Dream Realm fruit was extremely useful for bodies and bloodlines. A while back, the child Demigod had eaten a few when he was a King, and it strengthened his Sacred Body.
However, it was hard to digest the spiritual fruit, and it took a long time, otherwise Zhao Feng wouldn't have eaten it only now.
His consciousness then returned to the Divine Illusion Dimension.
Nan Gongsheng was cultivating behind Zhao Feng, and his spatial domain glittered with the power of the Evil God Crystal.
Zhao Feng found that the Evil God Crystal and Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain were assimilating each other. The Evil God Crystal was the core, and the wicked power of the Evil God Crystal had eroded Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain. Some of it had even merged into his Crystal Core.
Weng~~
Wisps of wicked purple light glowed amongst the silver light around Nan Gongsheng's body. A purple-colored half-moon mark seemed to flicker on Nan Gongsheng's forehead, as if it was the mark of an Evil God.
Hu~~
With Nan Gongsheng's every breath, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi nearby would move and act as if it was bowing down to a God.
As expected of the Evil God Crystal. Nan Gongsheng is becoming stronger and stronger, but I don't know if he'll be able to truly control its power, Zhao Feng thought.
Of course, Zhao Feng's progress was shocking as well. He had eaten the Ancient Dream Realm spiritual fruit and had the Wind Lightning Crystal Core of a King. In just half a day's time, it was obvious that Zhao Feng's bloodline and body had become stronger. He reached the late stages of the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body and was starting to progress toward the peak fourth level, and he had only digested a small proportion of the Ancient Dream Realm fruit.
Bo~ Bo~ Weng~~
Zhao Feng appeared within a whirlpool of water and lightning, and the nearby Water and Lightning Yuan Qi roared. Rain and lightning surrounded the air above the hill, and anyone within a hundred miles of it could feel it clearly.
"The Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique has broken through to the 6th level." Zhao Feng revealed a joyful expression.
The first three levels of the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique were the foundation of Wind Lightning, and after that, one would construct the first of the five elements. Now, Zhao Feng's Water of Wind Lightning had reached the sixth level.
"I'll be able to construct the second element of Wind Lightning at the 7th level – the Wood of Wind Lightning." Zhao Feng was looking forward to this.
The Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique cultivated the five elements. The construction of another element wasn't just an increase in direct strength, it also meant that more techniques and abilities could be used. Furthermore, an extra element meant that the Sacred Lightning Body would become more resilient against that element.
For example, Zhao Feng currently used the Water of Wind Lightning to refine his Sacred Lightning Body, so he had a strong resilience against Ice and Water attacks.
Zhao Feng's core within his dantian had almost fully crystallized. Apart from the quantity, there wasn't much of a difference between his True Yuan and someone at the Great Origin Core Realm.
Adding on the fact that he had the Sacred Lightning Body and the Wind Lightning Technique, these two sacred techniques, his battle-power was comparable to a half-step King, and that was without even taking into account his hidden cards, bloodline, or God's Spiritual Eye.
"Let's go." Zhao Feng got up. Although the majority of the Spiritual Fruit hadn't been digested yet, he could slowly absorb it on the way.
When he fully absorbed this Spiritual Fruit, Zhao Feng's Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body would reach the limit of the fourth level, and he would be able to crush normal half-step Kings with just his physical body alone.
Hu~
Nan Gongsheng let out a long breath and got up unwillingly. The Evil God Crystal had strengthened his spatial domain and his Crystal Core. The feeling could make anyone lose themselves in it.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng leapt over the hill and continued to chase after the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.
An ancient ruined city came into sight after a couple dozen miles, and they could hear the sound of battle.
Whoosh!
A white beam of light sped out from the ruins toward them.
"Quickly chase after her! That evil girl from the Dark Moon Lord Dynasty has stolen the Mind Calming Pearl and the Soul Healing Wood."
A bunch of figures sped out of the ruined city chasing the white light.
Hmm? Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng couldn't help but look over. They had seen people fight before, but this was the first time they had seen several hundred people all gathered together, and they were all elites.
Whoosh!
One could see the faint image of a female with a pair of transparent wings in the white light. Her aura had reached the Void God Realm.
There were two people that had reached the Void God Realm King in the chasing group, and the others were mainly at the half-step King level or the peak stage of the Great Origin Core Realm.
"Fellow friends in front, can you please stop that evil girl from the Dark Moon Lord Dynasty?" a young King wearing some old armor yelled.
The speed of the female with wings surpassed everyone chasing her, so none of them would be able to catch up. Only if Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng stopped her would they have a chance to take her down.
"This girl seems to have some sort of treasure on her…. Get back here!" A light flashed in Zhao Feng's eyes as sent out a punch through the air.
The female with wings revealed a disdainful look as she saw a Small Origin Core Realm youth attack her. However, her expression changed dramatically the next instant.
Boom!
The punch contained an enormous physical force that could kill normal Great Origin Core Realms.
The female with wings was fast, but her physical body was her weakness. Adding on the fact that she wasn't expecting it to be so powerful, her figure shook in the air as she was almost injured.
Right at this moment:
Shua!
A wicked silver light that glittered with purple rushed toward the female.
"Spatial technique!" The winged female's expression changed dramatically as she realized that these two were unusual. Nan Gongsheng's silver spatial domain glittered with purple and radiated a wicked power that even she was afraid of.
"Two young masters, please let me live. I will give you all my treasures…." the female with wings begged and cried.

Chapter 806 - The God's Spiritual Eye's Counterattack
"Two young masters, please let me live. I will give you all my treasures…." The winged female's face was charmingly red as she begged in a sympathetic tone.
She had a cultivation at the Void God Realm, and her bloodline gave her stunning speed. However, she underestimated her enemies and fell into Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain immediately, and she also needed to withstand the physical force that Zhao Feng exerted on her.
Nan Gongsheng's domain was a rare Space-type domain, so it was hard to escape from if one entered it. On top of that, now that it had merged with the Evil God Crystal, the strength of Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain had exceeded the norm.
The girl with wings realized that she was unable to escape.
"Zhao Feng, what should we do with her?" Nan Gongsheng asked.
At this moment, all three people were covered in a weird silver-purple spatial domain that was almost completely cut off from the rest of the world.
The cicada-winged girl was extremely surprised. Nan Gongsheng needed to ask the purple-haired youth for his opinion even with his strength? It was as if the purple-haired youth was the leader.
"It's just a non-human female; kill her," Zhao Feng said emotionlessly as killing Intent flashed in his eyes.
The girl with cicada wings felt coldness spread throughout her body. These two were decisive people.
"Kill!" A metallic silver-blue light glowed around Zhao Feng as the area around him became heavy, and he threw a series of punches at the female with cicada wings.
Peng~~
The female with cicada wings felt a terrifying surge of physical force crush her body, almost making her vomit blood.
It wasn't that she couldn't fight back at all, it was just that she was trapped in Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain and was unable to circulate her Magnificent Power. Her True Yuan was also limited to a certain degree. Her species specialized in speed, and they didn't have strong bodies.
"Not good!" The winged female's body shook, and she was already injured earlier. Before she could react, critical danger appeared.
Shu! Shu! Shu! Shu!
A layer of silver and purple spatial blades formed in Nan Gongsheng's palm, which instantly ripped the female into dozens of pieces.
"Arghh!" The female with cicada wings screamed as bloody pieces of her body fell from the sky.
The King youth wearing old armor and the rest all drew in cold breaths. All they saw was Zhao Feng attacking and slaying the female within three breaths.
In the air, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng started to gather the spoils of war from the female with cicada wings. The treasures of a Void God Realm King were obviously not simple, but most were of no use to Zhao Feng.
On the other hand, the Mind Calming Peal and Soul Healing Wood that she just got were extremely useful.
The Mind Calming Pearl was a rare Soul treasure that could make the user more resilient against many mental energy illusions and Soul Dao techniques. It could even get rid of heart demons and help form Intent. In terms of value, the Mind Calming Pearl came close to the Sky Locking Bow and the Qiankun Sword.
However, Zhao Feng wanted the Soul Healing Wood more since it could heal and strengthen the soul, and it was useful even for Void God Realm Kings.
Both the Mind Calming Pearl and the Soul Healing Wood were extremely attractive to anyone below the Mystic Light Realm.
"Nan Gongsheng, you have been affected by the Evil God Pearl. The Mind Calming Pearl is yours. The Soul Healing Wood will recover my soul's Intent," Zhao Feng said.
Since he had the God's Spiritual Eye, he didn't need the Mind Calming Pearl. On the other hand, Nan Gongsheng had cut the winged female into dozens of pieces, which wasn't what he usually did. Although Nan Gongsheng was decisive and not afraid to kill, he wasn't bloodthirsty.
"Deal." Nan Gongsheng knew that Zhao Feng had good intentions, and the wicked power of the Evil God Crystal had indeed affected him.
Nan Gongsheng immediately put on the Mind Calming Pearl and felt a coolness travel into his soul. His gaze became clearer, and Zhao Feng nodded his head. Nan Gongsheng would be a strong ally in the Divine Illusion Dimension while Zhao Feng was still recovering.
The Soul Healing Wood was not bad; it could increase the speed of Zhao Feng recovering his Emperor Intent. He estimated that the Soul Healing Wood would be able to recover his soul-strength to the early or middle stages of the Void God Realm. At that point in time, his Emperor Intent wouldn't be far away from awakening.
However, right now wasn't the moment to use it.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of flying appeared. It was the people who were chasing the female from the ancient ruined city. The leaders were a youth wearing armor and a purple-haired girl. They were both Void God Realm Kings; the youth with the armor was a Domain-level older generation King whereas the girl with purple hair was a new King. She was pretty, and her purple hair gave off a noble and dreamy elegance.
"This one is called Cao Yun from one of the Eight Big Families – the Cao Family. May I ask where you two are from?" the youth clasped his hands together and asked.
The quick actions of Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng slaying the female with cicada wings made him wary.
One of the Eight Big Families, the Cao Family.
"I am Ji Lan from one of the Eight Big Families – the Ji Family. Shouldn't you two give us a reason for taking the treasures of our prey?" The purple-haired girl's eyes glittered with a faint purple.
Hmm? Zhao Feng felt that this purple-haired Ji Lan had an unusual eye-bloodline.
"These two both come from the Eight Big Families." Nan Gongsheng didn't dare to underestimate either of them.
Before entering the Divine Illusion Dimension, the seniors of the Mystic True Sacred Clan talked about the situation of the lord dynasty.
The strength of any single one of the Eight Big Families surpassed the entire Mystic True Sacred Clan.
Seeing that these two people stayed silent, the armor-wearing Cao Yun smiled. He was sure that the forces or families that they came from couldn't be compared to the Eight Big Families.
"How about this: hand over the Mind Calming Pearl and the Soul Healing Wood, and we won't take any of the other items," Cao Yun smiled and said, while the purple-haired Ji Lan pouted her lips, as if not satisfied.
"Hmph, I wouldn't care even if a prince of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty was here. I don't have the habit of spitting out meat that I've already eaten." Zhao Feng laughed disdainfully.
Hearing that, Cao Yun's and Ji Lan's expressions changed, and the group behind them broke out into discussion.
"Arrogant brat!"
"A measly Small Origin Core Realm. Are you not scared that the wind will cut off your tongue?"
Zhao Feng's words angered the elites from the big families. Cao Yun's expression was grim, but he felt that Zhao Feng was confident and could see through everything. This purple-haired youth was the one to attack the female with cicada wings first as well.
"Let's see what you're made of." Ji Lan laughed coldly.
Hu~~
Her dazzling purple hair blew in the wind as if she was a purple-haired elf.
Zhao Feng's hair was also purple, but the tone of his purple hair was even prettier than Ji Lan's. Ji Lan wasn't happy; not only was this youth handsome, he had purple hair that was even prettier than her own.
"Purple Star Eyes!" Ji Lan's eyes glittered with a misty purple that seemed like purple stars in the sky, and a strong surge of Soul power charged toward Zhao Feng.
In that instant, thousands of burning stars crushed toward Zhao Feng's and Nan Gongsheng's souls and caused them to shake.
Normal Kings would fall into the abyss of Soul eye-bloodline techniques, and their souls would even be injured. Cao Yun and company would then attack during this chance.
However, their plan and reality were drastically different. The youth with black clothes and the purple-haired youth both stood motionless; they weren't affected.
Nan Gongsheng's eyes flashed as he circulated his King Intent and blocked this soul attack that contained the Dao of Illusion. On the other hand, Zhao Feng stood unmoving with an expressionless face like a doll. There was no reaction from him at all.
"Hmph!" The left eye of the dazed Zhao Feng suddenly glowed with a misty purple light, and condensed beams of lightning surged from it. The lightning was purple, and it was surrounded in wisps of the purple stars that belonged to Ji Lan's Soul eye-bloodline power.
Boom!
Ji Lan's body shook, and her face went pale as she looked at Zhao Feng's left eye. "Your eye-bloodline…!"
In that instant, her eye-bloodline trembled. Her soul and eye were injured.
It was hard to imagine what level of mastery this youth had reached in the Dao of the Soul to be able to counterattack Ji Lan's offense like so thoroughly. Furthermore, his counterattack contained an immortal and undying aura of lightning that made her unable to breathe.
"Ji Lan, what happened to you!?" Cao Yun and company couldn't help but exclaim with shock.
Ji Lan's Purple Star Eyes was extremely powerful, and even some geniuses on the Imperial Genius rankings were wary of her. However, Ji Lan had a pale face, and she was shaking as if she had lost her soul. One could imagine her utter defeat.
"That youth's eye-bloodline is too terrifying!"
"Just one counterattack from his eye-bloodline defeated Ji Lan."
The elites of the two Big Families were stunned.
At this moment in time, no one dared to attack the duo, including the Domain-level King Cao Yun.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng – one of them had an immeasurable Soul eye-bloodline while the other was a Domain-level King with Space-type abilities.
"Let's go." Zhao Feng looked over them coldly and disappeared with Nan Gongsheng.
In the next instant, a silver light flashed over the group and headed toward the ancient ruined city.
Cao Yun and the other elites of the Big Families had ugly expressions. Those two were incredibly arrogant and flew right over their heads, but no one dared to attack them due to their strength.
"Hm? They want to interfere in the ancient ruined city?"
"Zhao Yufei from the Duanmu Family is over there, and she is unrivalled. Those two are not enough to do anything to her."

Chapter 807 - Plundering Pair
The gazes of Cao Yun and the other disciples watched with weird expressions as Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng headed toward the ancient ruined city. Many top geniuses of the Big Families had gathered there.
"Ji Lan, how are you?" Cao Yun asked the purple-haired young girl next to him with care.
Ji Lan was still trembling, and her face was still white as if her soul wasn't her own. It was as if she still hadn't come back to reality from the shock just now.
All the geniuses were puzzled. Being the esteemed daughter of one of the Eight Big Families, she had a noble status, and she was arrogant. With her unique eye-bloodline, she could be considered a daughter of heaven.
It wasn't like there was no one that could match her in the same generation, but none of them had ever seen her so defeated before.
"His eye-bloodline is one of the most terrifying ones I have ever seen in my life," Ji Lan said as she let out a breath.
Hearing that, everyone's heart shook. The Ji Family was famed for their eye-bloodline, and they had produced some of the most powerful and famous eye-bloodline experts throughout history. Although the Ji Family's eye-bloodline might not be the absolute strongest in the continent zone, Ji Lan had interacted with many of the top eye-bloodlines.
"Hmph, no matter how strong it is, it can't be compared to the descendants of the God Eye of Death or the God Eye of Samsara," a half-step King youth said.
Descendants of the Eight Great God Eyes had appeared in the lord dynasty every now and then over the past thousand years, and this wasn't much of a secret to the upper echelons of the top forces.
"I've seen the descendants of the God Eyes, but the pressure his left eye gave me was more unique, as if it was the only one in the world. No other eye can be compared to it," Ji Lan said after some thinking. Her Purple Star Eyes still hadn't fully escaped the fear from before.
They were both Soul-based eye-bloodlines, but the difference was like the difference between clouds and mud.
"Haha, Ji Lan, you're thinking too much…. What, do you think that guy's eye-bloodline is one of the God Eyes?" Cao Yun shook his head and smiled.
Everyone else laughed as well and didn't take it to heart.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Elsewhere, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng flew to the edge of the ruined city while covered in a silver light. Zhao Feng's left eye had become black again, but his hair was still purple. Adding on his handsome face, and he was extremely attractive to those of the opposite sex.
Zhao Feng's left eye scanned over the area from mid-air. The ruined city was very big – it was even bigger than the underground world.
Zhao Feng could tell that it was once a populated city, and it served as a marketplace for the different races. One could see the bones of different races in the city, and it was easy to distinguish the different styles of architectures for the various buildings.
No one knew what happened, but every living thing inside the city was killed within a short amount of time, and the city turned into ruins.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng felt strong surges of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi, True Yuan, and Magnificent Power clashing even from the edge of the ruins. The battle inside the city was very intense.
"Although everything in the city died due to some unknown cause, many treasures were preserved." Zhao Feng understood. This was the analysis he got from his God's Spiritual Eye after roughly scanning over the area.
Indeed, many old treasures had been dug out of this place.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Cao Yun, Ji Lan, and the other experts returned to the ruined city and continued to participate in the fight for other treasures.
"We seem to be late." Nan Gongsheng was excited. In this chaotic situation, his spatial abilities could be put to good use.
The two looked at each other, then flashed into the ruined city without hesitation. They only flew for a couple dozen miles before finding a bunch of geniuses fighting up ahead. Some came from the Big Families while others were from sects.
"Fuck off! The Eight Star Tower found the ancient star stone first."
"No, no, no, no, the ancient star stone is used to craft Heaven-grade weapons, and it's already extinct in the outside world. It's exactly what the Grand Elder of the Jiang Family needs."
Both forces had Void God Realm Kings, and some of the half-step Kings could release battle-power equivalent to a King by using their bloodline or their secret techniques.
There were also many experts from other forces watching in secret.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A layer of light suddenly appeared in the air above the battle.
"Who's there!?"
Both forces were surprised. One of the two newcomers was a Domain-level King that seemed to specialize in spatial techniques.
"It's just a few crafting materials," a purple-haired youth inside the silver light said emotionlessly.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng had the Sky Locking Bow and the Qiankun Sword respectively, so they weren't interested in normal weapons or crafting materials. Although the value of the ancient star stone was high, it wasn't enough for the two to enter the fight.
Sou! Sou!
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng flew through the middle of the two forces.
"Ah! My Water Mother Essence!" a pretty young girl with blue hair exclaimed as her face went red.
Boom! Shua!
Under the combination of a spatial secret technique and powerful physical force, she wasn't able to fight back at all, and the Water Mother Essence that she had just obtained was stolen.
"How dare those two steal from the number one beauty of the Jiang Family, Jiang Feixue?"
Many of the elites watching in secret were stunned.
Many precious materials had been found, and the ancient star stone was the most valuable. The elites of the Jiang Family and the Eight Star Tower were fighting with each other, and these two "retarded" geniuses had just charged straight in and went for the number one beauty of the Jiang Family.
"Little Sister Feixue, we'll come help you after we take the ancient star stone." A young King in black robes from the Jiang Family coldly looked toward the direction where Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng left.
Sou! Sou!
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng headed for the depths of the ruined city.
"Not bad, the Water Mother Essence can make up for the lack of Water element in the Wind Lightning Crystal Core." Zhao Feng was full of smiles, and they soon met another group of elites that was close to one hundred in number. They were most likely from a family.
"Hahaha! We found two tattered Heaven-grade weapons, and they're relatively complete," a youth wearing purple-golden robes laughed.
This youth had the cultivation of a half-step King, and a wrinkled and elderly Domain-level King stood next to him.
"Thirteenth Prince, apart from the Heaven-grade weapons, there's also a Sealed Dark Green Bamboo…."
"Hm? There's another tattered armor here that even Earth-grade weapons can't damage."
The nearby elites all found something as they were led by the Thirteenth Prince in purple-golden robes. The nearby forces only dared to watch in secret; they would never come over and steal from them.
Sou! Sou!
A silver streak of light appeared at this moment in time.
"Domain-level King that specializes in Space." The expression of the wrinkled elder changed slightly as he became wary.
"Which force are you from? We are the imperials of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty, go back!" a half-step King yelled.
Shua!
Instead of retreating, the layer of silver charged into the group.
Boom!
Some imperial geniuses felt a physical force pressure down on them like Mount Tai, and many coughed out blood.
"Bastard, stop!" the wrinkled elder roared as he turned into a yellow streak of light that charged toward the silver light.
Nan Gongsheng snickered coldly and threw a punch that gave off a silver and purple light.
Boom!
Two Magnificent Powers and spatial domains clashed in the air. The shockwave injured – if not killed – the nearby elites from the imperial family.
"Old man, anyone that sees a resource in the Divine Illusion Dimension deserves a share." A purple-haired youth inside the spatial domain threw out a punch that contained a strong surge of physical strength and blood-red flame.
Bam!
The wrinkled elder was pushed back. He was angry and stunned at the same time, but he didn't dare to use all his strength or else he'd only create more casualties for his own side. In the exchange just now, he was the one at the disadvantage.
Whoosh! Sou!
The layer of silver stayed amidst the chaos for a few breaths, then left.
"Your Highness, that Wood-elemental treasure – the Wujiangcang Wood – has been taken by those two."
"Several Spatial Origin Stones that I just found were taken as well."
Several disciples panicked.
"Ridiculous! Which thieves dare to challenge the power of the imperial family!?" The purple-golden-robed youth was furious.
"Sacred Emperor's Sword!" the Thirteenth Prince roared as a shining golden sword appeared in his hand. It was surrounded by draconic sword-light, and it contained the force of an Emperor that caused the hearts of everyone in the ruined city to shake.
"Your Highness, please stop!" The wrinkled elder's expression changed as he immediately tried to stop the purple-golden-robed youth. "The Sacred Emperor's Sword can't be easily used, and this isn't the territory of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty."
"No one can take resources that belong to the imperials and not be punished." The Thirteenth Prince had nowhere to release his anger, and the wrinkled elder had a bitter smile as he tried to stopped the prince.
There were countless forces and elites in the Divine Illusion Dimension. The imperials were unable to act however they wanted. Furthermore, those two had only taken a handful of the resources. If the imperials sent people after them, other forces might be attracted by the chaos and use that chance to come in and steal even more.
Whoosh!
The layer of silver light headed toward the depths of the ruins.
"Hehe, this Wujiangcang Wood is a rare Wood-elemental resource that will be extremely useful to my second element of the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique – the Wood of Wind Lightning." Zhao Feng gave a light laugh.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng started to plunder from a whole bunch of people. However, the groups that they stole from didn't have any Void God Realm Kings. There were only some half-step Kings whose battle-power was comparable to a King, so what they stole wasn't super valuable.
"Zhao Feng, won't we enrage all the geniuses of the lord dynasty by doing this…?" Nan Gongsheng asked somewhat uneasily.
In just four hours' time, they had plundered and stolen from five different groups.
"We take the things we want and leave. Normal Kings aren't able to get anywhere near us with our combined strength," Zhao Feng said. The combination of him and Nan Gongsheng was very powerful.
They decided to steal from a few more forces. There was nothing else they could do; they had arrived late, so they could only use this method to get any good resources.
Right at this moment:
Peng! Boom! Boom! Boom~~~~!
A strong surge of True Yuan and Intent came from the depths of the ruins that surprised even Nan Gongsheng.
In the air above a tattered palace:
"Lady Yufei, we admire your strength, but the power of the Duanmu Family is unable to fight back against us four," a tall male with a bald head said. Behind him were three more Void God Realm Kings, and they all teamed up to resist this charming girl in purple.

Chapter 808 - Golden Bones
At this moment, four surges of Magnificent Power gathered into one and merged into the spatial domain of the bald male in dark war robes.
Weng~~ Boom!
The four Kings were surrounded by a dark abyssal domain that seemed to have almost materialized, and its color became darker and darker until it was almost pitch-black.
The battle-power of these four combined was enough to injure even some Peak-tier Kings. The bald male was an older elite, and his battle-power was already comparable to a Peak-tier King by himself.
"Lady Yufei, we admire your strength, but the power of the Duanmu Family is unable to fight against us four."
The bald male started to close in, but despite facing the combined strength of four Kings, the expression of the girl in purple didn't change. Instead, a crystal-like purple glow appeared around her body. If one looked at her, she didn't seem to be made from normal flesh and blood; instead, she looked like an elegant and noble goddess.
"Domains that haven't materialized yet are of no use against me." The girl in purple smiled. She and an elder in green robes behind her seemed to be inside an invisible world. The pressure from the four Kings was like a stone that sunk into the ocean.
"How is this possible? Unless she has a Little World, how can she block our four spatial domains combined?" The bald male's expression changed.
He had fought with Zhao Yufei from the Duanmu Family before, and he was at a disadvantage. Now that he had combined forces with three other Kings, he still wasn't able to gain the upper hand?
"Jiu Wuji, you may be an elite amongst Domain-level Kings, but it's still not enough against the most talented genius in the history of the Duanmu Family," the elder with green robes said confidently, as if he was even more confident than Zhao Yufei herself.
"Duanmu Family's… most talented genius ever?"
"Could the rumor be true? Zhao Yufei really has the Spiritual Race bloodline, which is ranked 19th among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races?"
The bald Jiu Wuji and the other Kings were in disbelief. The expressions of the other forces behind Jiu Wuji and the other Kings were filled with even more shock.
"As an older elite, Jiu Wuji's battle-power is comparable to the top thirty of the Imperial Genius rankings, but…!"
At this instant, it may seem like it was a four versus two – Jiu Wuji and company versus Zhao Yufei and the elder in green – but only Zhao Yufei had actually done anything so far.
"I don't believe this! Attack separately?" Jiu Wuji snickered coldly as his black spatial domain contracted.
Shua!
His figure flashed as he and the other three Kings charged toward Zhao Yufei and the elder in green.
"Go!" Zhao Yufei yelled as her jade-like hand opened, and crystalline purple flames turned into a barrier that spread outward.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Before the other three Kings could even get close, a dominating force sent them flying. One of them even started to cough out blood.
"Break~~~~!" Only Jiu Wuji managed to get close. His robes flapped in the air as a dark whirlwind formed in his palm and pierced through the crystalline barrier.
Such battle-power made the forces behind him cheer.
Bam!
Part of the remaining force from the dark whirlwind landed on Zhao Yufei and made her body shake slightly, but her body remained crystalline and unharmed.
"What kind of body is this!?" Jiu Wuji's expression changed dramatically.
Bam!
Using this chance, Zhao Yufei and the elder in green counterattacked and sent Jiu Wuji flying. A dark field appeared around Jiu Wuji, which blocked the two attacks. He managed to steady himself, but his blood started to boil. This was still under the fact that his battle-power was considered unrivalled against all those under the Emperor level.
Solemnness appeared on Zhao Yufei and the elder in green's faces. This Jiu Wuji came from a peak three-star superpower, and he wasn't even a hundred years old yet and already had battle-power unrivalled against everyone below the Emperor level.
"Zhao Yufei, I'll take a step back – we'll split the resources around the corpses 50-50." Jiu Wuji's eyes were cold as he suppressed the anger in his heart. He still had some hidden cards and secret techniques, but the Divine Illusion Dimension had only just opened, so he needed to conserve some strength.
The two sides had been fighting for some treasures near some bones. Below a tattered building was a complete set of bones from a non-human race. No one knew how long it had been there, but it still glowed with gold. Within one or two miles of this non-human golden skeleton were treasures that could even make some Emperors and Sacred Lords go red with desire.
Firstly, there were God Crystals. Most of them were substandard, but they were all extremely valuable in the outside world. There was a couple dozen around this area.
Apart from that, there were two Heaven-grade divine weapons and one Inheritance Sacred Weapon that gave off such a powerful force that normal Kings were unable to get close.
The weapons of this world were split into the Mortal, Spiritual, Earth, and Heaven grades. Heaven-grade divine weapons were the most powerful in the world; only people that were at least at the Mystic Light Realm could fully unleash their power. Normal Inheritance Sacred Weapons were of the Heaven-grade, and even the worst ones would be close to the Heaven grade at the very least.
Inheritance Sacred Weapons would adjust their power depending on the cultivation of the user, but they had strict requirements. Some Inheritance Sacred Weapons also contained inheritance information.
Apart from God Crystals, Heaven-grade divine weapons, and the Inheritance Sacred Weapon, there were also some rare resources and items near the bones, such as an interspatial gourd, Spiritual Fruits, and specially-sealed pills.
"The strength of the owner of these bones might have reached the Demigod level. They were – at the very least – stronger than normal Sacred Lords."
"I'd be satisfied if I received even 1% of the items left behind by a strong Sacred Lord or Demigod."
The hearts of the nearby elites thumped. However, in this place, the Duanmu Family ruled. Luckily for them, there was Jiu Wuji and some other older experts that tried to resist Zhao Yufei with their power.
"50-50? The Duanmu Family found these bones." Zhao Yufei's eyes went cold.
"Zhe zhe…. Zhao Yufei, if we really fight, we have more half-step Kings and peak Great Origin Core Realms. You might be able to survive, but the others of the Duanmu Family…" Jiu Wuji said cunningly.
Zhao Yufei had the strength advantage among the upper echelons, but Jiu Wuji and the Kings had three to four times as many middle-echelon experts. One had to also take into account that some of the half-step Kings that could enter the Divine Illusion Dimension had battle-power comparable to a true King.
"Then let's see what happens." Zhao Yufei acted as if she wasn't scared, and the elder in green next to her didn't panic either. The elder even smiled confidently.
Whoosh! Sou!
Right at this moment in time, a layer of silver light approached.
"Hm? There seems to be a familiar and powerful aura ahead," Zhao Feng murmured.
"That's right, it is familiar indeed," Nan Gongsheng said.
The two soon reached the outer edge of the tattered palace.
Even though it was just the outer edge, there were plenty of experts and forces observing this location. In the middle were four Kings and the forces behind them. The strength of any one of these forces surpassed the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and Zhao Feng could hear the words "God Crystal" and "Heaven-grade divine weapon" before he even got close.
Beng! Bam!
At this instant, a battle started in the air above the palace. A total of six Kings started to fight above the golden bones, and a purple-robed goddess attracted the most attention. Her every attack would radiate crystal-like True Yuan that easily pushed back Void God Realm Kings, and half-step Kings were unable to even get close.
Wah! Wah!
Apart from Jiu Wuji, the other Kings had all been injured.
"This Zhao Yufei is only at the middle stages of the Void God Realm, but her True Yuan is immensely powerful and thick. She can fight so many Kings the same time… numbers don't mean anything." Jiu Wuji's expression kept on flickering.
At the moment, he didn't dare to use his advantage in numbers because Zhao Yufei and the elder in green weren't scared at all. Jiu Wuji guessed that Zhao Yufei most likely had a Little World as well as many powerful hidden moves and secret techniques that she hadn't used yet.
Whoosh! Sou!
The layer of silver approached the forces of the four Kings.
"Yufei…." Zhao Feng murmured as he glanced at the goddess in purple. She wasn't the young girl from back then. She had now matured to a truly beautiful woman who could charm entire countries.
"Zhao Yufei!" Nan Gongsheng was surprised. Back at the True Martial Sacred Land, he fought her, so he knew how terrifying she was.
"Zhao Feng, what do you plan to do?" Nan Gongsheng looked at Zhao Feng with a weird gaze.
The battle of the six Kings became more intense, and some half-step Kings on the side of Jiu Wuji and company supported from afar.
"Who's there!?" The forces behind the four Kings felt Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng approaching.
"Plunder!" Zhao Feng laughed coldly as he and Nan Gongsheng passed through the groups while inside Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain.
The closer the items were to the bones, the more valuable they were. Even items within a ten-mile radius were rare and valuable. The resources of the outer edges were mainly controlled by the forces of the four Kings.
"Argh! My interspatial ring~~~!"
"Stop, the Star Darkness Fallen Stone I just mined~~~!"
"Who dares to steal from the Nine Darkness Palace!?"
The forces of Jiu Wuji and company broke out into chaos as roars and yells sounded in the air.
Whoosh! Sou!
However, the beam of silver light flashed through the air, and no one was able to catch up. Those below the half-step King level weren't even able to even see them properly. Furthermore, every time the silver light descended, a wicked spatial power would appear alongside a physical force as heavy as Mount Tai.
The half-step Kings weren't able to do anything against the plundering.
"Who is it!?" Jiu Wuji and the other Kings looked over with anger, and Zhao Yufei's eyes glanced over as she exclaimed, "It's him…! Nan Gongsheng?"

Chapter 809 - Chaotic Battle
"Where did these two guys come from? They dare to steal from the Nine Darkness Palace?"
"Space techniques and body-strengthening combination? What a strong pair!"
The eyes of the experts around the golden bones bulged out when they saw what was happening.
Sou! Shua! Sou! Shua!
The layer of silver light contained a spatial domain that quickly flew around, and it would steal some treasures with every flash. It was very fast, and the people inside seemed to be very experienced.
"Who dares to steal from the Nine Darkness Palace!?" Jiu Wuji in his black battle robes roared as his cold gaze turned around.
One could see a youth in black and a handsome youth with purple hair under the layer of silver. The youth in black was a Space-type Domain-level King and the other was a body-strengthening expert. It was like adding wings to a tiger.
Even those from the Duanmu Family were stunned.
"Yufei? Do you know those two?" the elder in green asked curiously.
Zhao Yufei was watching the actions of the "Black Clothes, Purple Hair" duo, and her expression wasn't natural.
"It's just a friend. Maybe Nan Gongsheng is purposely doing that to help us." Zhao Yufei smiled and started to attack again and apply more pressure on Jiu Wuji and the other Kings instead of defending.
"Hahaha, that's good!" This was exactly the situation the elder in green wished for, and he suddenly increased his offense.
Jiu Wuji and company instantly faced the counterattacks from Zhao Yufei and the elder in green. Apart from Jiu Wuji, all the other Kings were injured to various degrees.
Sou! Shua!
The silver light flashed by the group from the Nine Darkness Palace, then started to plunder from some other forces.
"Which thieves dare to steal from the Shi Family!?" one of the four Kings roared.
The Shi Family was one of the Eight Big Families. The spectators clicked their tongues; this "Black Clothes, Purple Hair" duo started to steal from even more forces after plundering from the Nine Darkness Palace. The forces behind these groups were all at least three-star powers, and some were even peak three-stars.
"Crazy! The Nine Darkness Palace, the Shi Family, the Dong Family, Grand Duke Yuan's Palace… have all been plundered by those two."
The spectating experts were shocked by the duo's actions. The Nine Darkness Palace was a peak three-star superpower, and the Shi Family and the Dong Family were both part of the Eight Big Families, which were even stronger than normal three-star forces. Grand Duke Yuan's Palace was the ruler of a province, which was a rank higher than the Duke's Palace of the Tianfeng Great Island Zone.
Each province of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty was on the same tier as the entire Cang Ocean.
Normal three-star forces didn't have the courage to attack four different superpowers at the same time.
Luckily, the "Black Clothes, Purple Hair" duo only stole from them and didn't kill anyone. The victims that they stole from didn't even have the ability to fight back. This wasn't against the rules of the Divine Illusion Dimension though; all the elites that had entered were competitors.
"Not bad, not bad." Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng's wealth started to increase due to the plundering. In half the time it took to make tea, the treasures they obtained surpassed everything they had stolen earlier.
"Thieves, just wait till I rip you into shreds!" Jiu Wuji and the other Kings were so angry that they were about to explode.
At the moment, the most valuable resources were still near the golden bones. The treasures that Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng took weren't as valuable. Furthermore, the two didn't even kill anyone, they only stole.
"Jiu Wuji, if this continues, where will the face of our four forces go?" the young King from Grand Duke Yuan's Palace asked angrily.
"Split the important treasures first, then we go handle those two thieves." Jiu Wuji couldn't hold it in either. At this moment in time, the four groups behind them were all being spun around in circles by the "Black Clothes, Purple Hair" duo.
Shua! Sou! Sou! Sou!
Jiu Wuji and company didn't fight with Zhao Yufei anymore, they just headed for the treasures around the golden bones.
"Heaven-grade divine weapon… Inheritance Sacred Weapon… God Crystals… Spiritual Fruits and pills…."
These treasures were the reason why they were fighting Zhao Yufei, otherwise the four Kings would have already gone to kill the "Black Clothes, Purple Hair" duo.
"Hehe, do you think it'll be so simple?" Zhao Yufei smiled and turned into a flaming purple streak of light that charged downward.
Boom! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Zhao Yufei's charge made the four Kings scatter.
"Hand of the Demonic Sky!" Jiu Wuji stood in the air as one of his arms started to burn and expand into a large black hand of a giant.
The enormous Hand of the Demonic Sky gave off a Magnificent Power of the Demonic Dao, and it seemed to contain the ability to shatter Heaven and Earth with its dominating force.
At this moment, Jiu Wuji's battle-power was raised to an entirely new level that could clash against Zhao Yufei and put up a good fight for the treasures around the golden bones.
"Don't even think about it." Zhao Yufei's skin glittered with a purple light as the strength of her True Yuan reached an entirely new level.
Boom~~~~!
The male and female – old expert and young prodigy – made the other Kings retreat.
Sou! Sou! Hu~~
Some of the nearby treasures around the golden bones were thrown into the air.
"Get the treasures!"
The forces present all charged in, and the half-step Kings that were as strong as actual Kings finally entered the fight. Some Kings who had been watching in secret also charged in.
However, normal people were unable to even approach Heaven-grade divine weapons, Inheritance Sacred Weapons, or God Crystals. Even though the owner of the golden bones had died, the bones still radiated a powerful force.
Weng~~
The golden bones shot out several sharp golden lights that forced back several Kings and many half-step Kings. A bloody gash was left behind on a Void God Realm King. A half-step King was almost sliced in two by a beam of golden light.
"Watch out! The golden bones belong to an expert that cultivated the element of Metal." Several half-step Kings exclaimed.
The element of Metal contained sharp attacks. In terms of single-target damage, Metal exceeded the strength of Fire and Lightning.
"Good chance!" Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng looked at each other.
At this moment, chaos had broken out, and many treasures near the golden bones had been launched into the air. All sorts of attacks caused dust to blow and people to fly around.
Sou! Shua!
The layer of silver light quickly flew toward the golden bones.
Peng! Boom! Boom!
Even Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain was pushed back by the shockwaves of some clashes and attacks.
The duo headed toward the center of the chaos where the strength of all the attacks was extremely great, and the shockwave of Zhao Yufei's and Jiu Wuji's fighting would reach them.
From the current situation, it seemed that Zhao Yufei was still suppressing Jiu Wuji and company by herself. In terms of how many treasures they had gathered, Zhao Yufei had more than Jiu Wuji and the other three Kings combined.
"Substandard God Crystal!" Nan Gongsheng turned into a streak of silver light and successfully managed to take some substandard God Crystals. It was much easier for him compared to others because his spatial domain contained the Evil God Crystal, which could suppress normal substandard God Crystals.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng separated for now. His target wasn't the substandard God Crystals – he wanted the golden bones themselves. These golden bones contained the pure essence and Intent of Metal. The owner was probably a non-human race that specialized in Metal.
I'll have to cultivate the Metal of Wind Lightning eventually, Zhao Feng thought.
"Ice Imperial War Armor!" He circulated his Ice-Water bloodline, and a layer of blue liquid ran across his body as an ice-blue water armor appeared around his body.
With the transformed Ice Imperial Spear acting as a suit of armor, Zhao Feng's defense increased dramatically. Adding on the fact that he had the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body and his strong physical force, he could block attacks even from Kings.
Bo~~
A ripple of water and lightning surged on the surface of the Ice Imperial War Armor; it could now counterattack just by coming into contact with the enemy.
"Hmm?" Zhao Yufei felt a familiar aura and glanced at Zhao Feng's Ice Imperial War Armor and his Water of Wind Lightning. However, this purple-haired youth wasn't that person. They just had similar bloodlines and techniques.
"Open!" After his defense increased so dramatically, Zhao Feng circulated his physical force, and his fist burned with a bright red flame that pushed back all the shockwaves and attacks nearby. Even some Kings momentarily retreated. In the process, he grabbed two or three substandard God Crystals on the way.
He finally got close to the golden bones, which gave off a powerful pressure and could even counterattack.
"Take!" A golden Earth-grade chain appeared in Zhao Feng's hand, which he tossed around the golden bones.
Shu! Shu! Shu! Ding! Ding!
Zhao Feng and everyone nearby were attacked by the golden bones.
"Everyone, watch out!" The nearby half-step Kings and Void God Realm Kings tried to dodge.
However, Zhao Feng seemed to have the ability to foresee the attacks, and he dodged most of the counterattack that contained the power of Metal.
"These bones of Metal are just relying on the remnant Intent contained within them to interact with the Metal Yuan Qi of the outside world." The God's Spiritual Eye saw the core process.
Zhao Feng's soul had reached an incredible level, and the pressure of the golden bones was unable to suppress him.
Crack!
Zhao Feng's golden chains cracked, and the bones were dragged into his ancient metal ring. In the last moment, the little thieving cat used an assassination technique and forcefully pulled in the golden bones.
"That thief took away the golden bones!" The half-step Kings and Kings were stunned as they felt the pressure suddenly decrease. Even Void God Realm Kings wouldn't find it easy to take away the golden bones.
"Don't let those two get away!" one of the four Kings roared.
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng had both obtained a lot of items. The former had obtained the golden bones and a few items near them while Nan Gongsheng had taken the most God Crystals – around half of all that were present.

Chapter 810 - Chase
Amidst the chaos, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were able to obtain a profit that made everyone's eyes go red.
At this moment, the fight for the treasures around the golden bones was coming to an end.
"That thief took away the golden bones!"
"Don't let those two get away!"
Some half-step Kings and Void God Realm Kings changed their target to Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng. This wasn't just due to the amount of wealth they had, it was also due to how they had stolen from everyone earlier; it was a release for all their anger and rage.
Some King-level figures started to slowly approach Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng, forming a semi-circle.
One of the four Kings charged toward Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng was only at the Origin Core Realm, but he had obtained the golden bones and several items nearby. If this wasn't the time to attack him, then when would it be?
"Retreat!"
A pair of Water Lightning wings that seemed alive suddenly extended out behind Zhao Feng.
Lightning Wings Flying Technique!
Shua!
A ripple of Water Lightning was left behind as Zhao Feng flew into the air and met up with a streak of silver light.
Boom! Bam! Bam!
A Void God Realm King and several half-step Kings missed their attacks.
"That brat also specializes in Space-type escape techniques, and he even has a rare type of lightning wings."
The elites that missed were dumbfounded. Who would have thought that a Small Origin Core Realm could comprehend such profound skills? His reactions, speed, and instincts were all top-tier.
"Go!" Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were covered in a layer of silver as they sped toward the edge of the ruined city.
"That Lightning Wings Flying Technique…" Zhao Yufei's eyes flashed with suspicion and shock as she looked at the fading Water Lightning wings behind Zhao Feng's back.
With Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain techniques, the number of experts that could catch up to him could be counted with one hand, and the strongest person – Jiu Wuji – was being stalled by Zhao Yufei.
After all the plundering and stealing, Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were rich.
"Soul Healing Wood, Water Mother Essence, Wujiangcang Wood, substandard God Crystals… with these resources, my cultivation should be able to break through." Zhao Feng was overjoyed.
Digging and manually finding resources would be difficult if there was only two of them. Plundering and stealing was much faster. However, when there were benefits, there were also downsides; it was easy to offend people by stealing.
"Brat, don't move!" A group of people stood at the edge of the ruined city. The leader was a young King in black robes whose eyes were like cold stars. Next to him were several half-step Kings and Great Origin Core Realms, including a pretty girl with blue hair who seemed to come out of a painting.
"It's the Jiang Family!"
"The number one genius of the Jiang Family, Jiang Chen, and the number one beauty of the Jiang Family, Jiang Feixue."
The nearby forces immediately recognized the group.
"Brother Jiang Chen, that's the bastard that stole my Water Mother Essence." The girl with blue hair bit her lips and locked her eyebrows together as she looked at the purple-haired youth with anger. She was the number one beauty of the Jiang Family – Jiang Feixue.
Zhao Feng's and Nan Gongsheng's expressions tightened. They were about to be surrounded.
Although their battle-power was great, it wasn't enough to fight against so many Kings.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye also sensed the forces of the Cao Family and the Ji Family hiding nearby.
"Cao Yun, he seems to have discovered our location." Ji Lan's eyes glittered with a dreamy purple, but she was unable to hide the fear and wariness. The injuries left behind by Zhao Feng's counterattack had created a deep impression in her heart.
"Don't do anything. That Jiang Chen is a Domain-level King with strong battle-power," Cao Yun said in a low tone.
At this moment, the silver light that Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were covered in was blocked.
"You're not going anywhere!" An icy silver spear appeared in Jiang Chen's hand as he created a ripple of faint black ice.
Weng~~
Everywhere the faint black light went was transformed into black ashes, which then froze.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Faint black spear lights pierced into Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain, and a layer of faint black ice started to form on the outside of the spatial domain. Although it wasn't much of a threat, the cold Intent slowed the duo down.
At the same moment, five or six half-step Kings from the Jiang Family attacked, including the beautiful blue-haired Jiang Feixue. These half-step Kings were either at the King-level or not too far from it.
Nan Gongsheng was forced to circulate his Magnificent Power and use his spatial secret techniques to redirect or absorb their attacks.
Bam! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Nan Gongsheng and Jiang Chen clashed in the air, and their spatial domains smashed together as well, pushing many people back.
Bam!
Jiang Chen was pushed back dozens of yards by a strange, wicked purple-silver ripple of light, and his blood started to boil.
If Nan Gongsheng hadn't obtained the Evil God Crystal, the chance of him winning would have only been 50-50. Zhao Feng's heart was as clear as a mirror. The Evil God Crystal had become the center of Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
However, at the same time, the other experts of the Jiang Family increased their offense and tried to stop Nan Gongsheng and Zhao Feng from escaping. If they were able to stall them for a couple breaths, the other pursuers would be able to catch up.
"How dare you thieves steal from the imperial family? I shall cut off your heads and hang them on the walls of the ruined city," a cold voice sounded from the other side of the ruins.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
The force from the Great Gan Imperials flew over. The leaders were the Thirteenth Prince and the wrinkled elder. Behind them were several half-step Kings.
"Hahaha…. Brats, let's see where you can run to after angering all of us!"
The Kings from Grand Duke Yuan's Palace, the Shi Family, the Dong Family, and a bunch of half-step Kings were approaching from different directions. At this moment in time, whether the Jiang Family could stall Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng for just a few breaths was very important.
"Zhao Feng, what should we do?" Seeing more and more people approaching, Nan Gongsheng's expression was solemn. Jiang Chen's strength was almost on par with his own, and there were several experts whose battle-power was King-level. They weren't aiming to defeat Nan Gongsheng, they just wanted to stall.
"Finish him off first!" Zhao Feng was decisive as his gaze locked on to Jiang Chen. Under normal situations, Nan Gongsheng would need ten to twenty moves to defeat Jiang Chen, but right now, there were other experts as well.
"Go!" Nan Gongsheng knew what Zhao Feng meant and turned into a silver streak of light that flashed toward Jiang Chen.
Lightning Wings Flying Technique! At the same moment, a pair of rippling wings made of Water, Wind, and Lightning formed behind Zhao Feng's back, and a surge of physical force as heavy as Mount Tai crushed onto Jiang Chen.
Not good! Jiang Chen's body became heavy facing the pressure from Nan Gongsheng and Zhao Feng.
"Break!" A blood-red flame whistled around Zhao Feng as he circulated the power of his Sacred Lightning Body and punched Jiang Chen.
Hu~ Hu~ Weng~~
At the same time, the wings behind Zhao Feng's back quickly fluttered, and his punch summoned a whirlpool of Water of Wind Lightning.
"Mystic Spatial Slash!" Nan Gongsheng sent out several sharp silver lights from his palm alongside a wicked purple-and-blood-colored light.
Shua! Shua! Wah!
Jiang Chen spat out a mouthful of blood as a gash appeared on his body. One could see the bones inside, and the gash stretched from his shoulder to his stomach.
Jiang Chen's face instantly went white, and he fell from the sky.
It wasn't that he was a lot weaker than Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng, it was just that their combined power was perfect. They both specialized in speed and lightning-quick attacks. Nan Gongsheng's spatial techniques were extremely troublesome, and his spatial domain restricted the enemy heavily. Zhao Feng's Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body gave him strong physical strength that could pressure the opponent's body and blood.
In addition, the mutated Blood Demon Sun bloodline had extremely powerful explosive strength. When used together with the Sacred Lightning Body and the Wings of Wind and Lightning, he could threaten Kings even at the Small Origin Core Realm.
There was one more important point; Zhao Feng's Intent had reached a high level, so he could easily catch Jiang Chen's flaws.
Bo~~
An ice-blue armor appeared around Zhao Feng's body and rippled with water and lightning.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The counterattacks of all the nearby half-step Kings and Jiang Chen were unable to threaten Zhao Feng. Having chosen the Water of Wind Lightning as the first element, his Sacred Lightning Body was extremely resilient against Water and Ice-elemental attacks.
"Retreat!" Zhao Feng entered Nan Gongsheng's spatial domain, and they were covered by a layer of silver light that took all attacks head-on as they passed through the Jiang Family.
"Brother Chen!" Jiang Feixue, the number one beauty of the Jiang Family, quickly went to help Jiang Chen.
"Those two are not normal." Jiang Chen was still frightened by what happened. "The domain of that youth in black contains a terrifyingly wicked power, and the feeling of that purple-haired youth makes me feel as if I'm facing the Emperor Intent of someone from the older generation."
Sou! Whoosh!
Those from the Jiang Family could only watch as the layer of silver flew over them. Apart from Jiang Chen, who was a Domain-level King, no one else was able to critically threaten them.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
Right at this moment in time, everyone from Grand Duke Yuan's Palace, the Cao Family, the Ji Family, and all the other forces arrived one after another. They were only one or two breaths away from completely surrounding Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng.
"Ji Lan, if we attack now, we may be able to stall those two thieves…." Cao Yun's breathing rate quickened. Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng teaming up and severely injuring Jiang Chen shocked him and Ji Lan.
The purple-haired Ji Lan hesitated. Even though she knew that this was the best chance to get Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng to stay behind, Zhao Feng had left a deep impression in her heart. Instinct told her that the left eye of that youth was a nightmare that was not to be easily offended.
Sou! Shua!
As the layer of silver light got closer:
Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng!
Cao Yun's and Ji Lan's heart rates quickened. At this instant, a wicked smile formed on the purple-haired youth's face as he glanced over, and his left eye turned into a hazy abyss-like purple world of illusions.
Cao Yun's and Ji Lan's hearts shook. The youth's smile was mysterious, and the purple abyss was like a nightmare that expanded and seemed to devour the world.
Sou! Whoosh!
Only after the layer of silver light had disappeared:
Hu~
The two acted as if they had just woken up from a nightmare. Their backs were drenched in cold sweat, and they were shocked.
