Chapter 2761 - Deliberately Making Things Difficult

"Chu Feng, this is bad. That Han Yu is looking at you with an abnormal gaze. Likely, he will attempt to attack you in the Spirit Formation Immortal Domain. After all, only people from the younger generation are able to enter that maze formation. It would serve as an exceptionally good opportunity for him to take care of you."

Her Lady Queen had also noticed Han Yu's gaze. She was unable to keep herself from warning Chu Feng.

At that moment, Chu Feng was finally unable to contain himself. Thus, he sent a voice transmission to Xia Yun'er, "Hey, girl, isn't it excessive for you to toy with me like this?"

"What's wrong? Young master Chu Feng, what are you talking about?"

Xia Yun'er replied to Chu Feng with a voice transmission. At the same time, she looked to Chu Feng with an innocent expression in her large eyes.

Her appearance seemed to be saying that she truly had no idea what Chu Feng meant.

"Forget about it. Don't bother asking her anymore, that girl is deliberately trying to mess with you. She will only pretend to be stupid when you ask her about it," Her Lady Queen said.

Chu Feng felt what Her Lady Queen said to be very reasonable. After all, this girl Xia Yun'er had acted stupid from the very beginning. Thus, Chu Feng decided to not bother asking her anymore.

After making their decisions, Chu Feng and the others began to proceed toward the direction of the maze formation.

After all, it was soon to be the time when Buried Spirit Lake would erupt. Since they planned to enter Buried Spirit Lake, they would have to hurry to make it in time.

"Stop!"

Right at that moment, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder who was guarding the path to the maze formation suddenly stopped Chu Feng, Xia Yun'er and the others.

"What's wrong?" Chu Feng asked.

"Only after passing through the examination will one be able to enter this path," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Examination? We've never heard of such a rule before," Li Xiang and the others said in a puzzled manner.

"I might as well tell you all the truth. This rule is something that our clan's clan chief has just relayed to us," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan said.

"Aren't you all deliberately trying to make things difficult for us?" Elder Xingyi felt very displeased.

"Truth be told, this rule is precisely created for you all. As for the reason why, I believe you all already know it in your hearts," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

Chu Feng and the others naturally understood what he meant by that. The reason for that was because Chu Feng and the others had already come to find out about the secret regarding the two paths before them. That was why the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan was deliberately making things difficult for them now.

"In that case, may I know what sort of examination it will be?" Chu Feng asked.

"Do you see this ball?" That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief flipped his palm. Then, a transparent glass ball appeared on his palm.

"As long as you instill spirit power into this ball, the color of the ball will change."

"As long as the ball turns cyan, you will have passed the examination and be allowed to enter this path."

"This ball will also become the pass for you all to enter the maze formation. If you do not have this ball, then you will not be able to enter the maze formation."

"Furthermore, this ball will also provide you with certain clues. Those clues will be beneficial to finding the exit of the maze formation that leads to Buried Spirit Lake."

"Of course, cyan is merely the color needed to enter the maze formation. Thus, the clues that one will obtain after achieving that color will be very slight. If one is able to achieve the color purple, then one will obtain a few more clues. If gold, the clues will be even more beneficial," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Then, senior, may I ask what color would be the highest color?" Chu Feng asked.

"The highest will be golden. However, you all must not look down on this ball. It is capable of engulfing much more spirit power than you could ever imagine."

"Thus, what you all need to do is pray that you will be able to turn it cyan. As for the golden color, do not even think about it," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

There were traces of contempt in his words. He did not believe that Chu Feng and the others would be able to turn the glass ball golden.

At that moment, Han Yu said, "You're looking down on us too much, no?"

He was very confident. Furthermore, he revealed his spirit power as he spoke.

His spirit power was very brilliant.

At that moment, he was completely engulfed by his spirit power, and looked like a god descending upon the world of mortals.

Most importantly, not only was his spirit power Immortal-cloak, but there were actually dragon marks flowing through it.

"Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, amazing!"

"As expected from Han Yu, he has actually reached the state of Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist already. Truly unfathomable."

Upon seeing Han Yu's spirit power, many of the people present revealed shock in their eyes.

Even the gazes of the Starfall Eight Immortals changed somewhat.

The reason for that was because, in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, extremely few people of the younger generation within a hundred years of age would be able to become Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritists. Their numbers could even be said to be capable of being counted with one's hands.

Furthermore, the great majority of those that managed to become Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritists within a hundred years of age were people that had wholly focused themselves in training world spirit techniques. Thus, their attainments in the field of martial cultivation were generally far inferior.

However, Han Yu was a demon-level genius in terms of martial cultivation too. After all, he was someone who had managed to leave his name on the Demon-level Geniuses List.

As the saying goes, one could not separate one's concentration on two different tasks. With how exceptional Han Yu had managed to be in the field of martial cultivation, he should logically be inferior in terms of world spirit techniques.

Yet, he actually managed to obtain such achievements in terms of world spirit techniques too. This was something that would naturally cause others to be astonished and feel admiration.

Hearing the gasps of surprise and praises from the crowd, and feeling the gazes of adoration and admiration from the younger generations, Han Yu finally revealed a proud smile again.

Ever since Xia Yun'er appeared, he had been completely suppressed by Chu Feng. After all, Xia Yun'er was walking so close to him.

But now, he felt that he had finally managed to recover some lost ground. At the very least, he was no longer so passive.

The reason for that was because he was certain about one thing. He was certain that not only was his cultivation the strongest among all the younger generations present, but his world spirit techniques were also the strongest among all the younger generations present.

"Those who wish to enter the maze formation can come over to me and retrieve a sphere."

Right at that moment, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder spoke. Even though Han Yu had indeed managed to astonish the crowd and gain their focus after revealing his strength as a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder did not concern himself with him at all.

Chu Feng and the others did not hesitate. One by one, they proceeded toward that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder and retrieved a glass ball from him.

"Remember, you will only have a single opportunity. After you begin to instill your spirit power into your ball, you must not stop. If you are to stop, you will not have a second opportunity."

"Furthermore, you will only have a single incense stick's worth of time to instill your spirit power into the ball. After a single incense stick's worth of time is up, the balls will stop accepting your spirit power," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Such a short period of time? That's simply not enough time at all," At that moment, many members of the younger generation voiced their dissatisfaction.

"The requirement for world spiritists is to be proficient in their utilization of their spirit power. To instill a great amount of spirit power into the balls in a short period of time will test whether or not you all are proficient in your world spirit techniques. If you are unable to accomplish it, that would only mean that you are too weak, and still not qualified to be a world spiritist," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Heh… a single incense stick's worth of time is more than sufficient."

Right at that moment, Han Yu started to smile. Then, he sat down cross-legged on the ground. With a wave of his sleeve, he sealed himself with a spirit formation.

The people outside were unable to see him inside that spirit formation. However, they were able to guess that Han Yu must've begun to instill his spirit power into the ball. Seeing that Han Yu had already begun, the others all grew anxious.

They no longer hesitated, and immediately began to instill their own spirit power into their respective glass balls.

Once they began, they paid no attention to anything else. The reason for that was because they had to make an all-out effort to succeed. After all, they would only have a single incense stick's worth of time. To them, this was an enormous test.

Seeing that the great majority of the people present had started instilling their spirit power into their glass balls, Li Xiang and his two companions prepared to do the same themselves.

"Wait."

However, right at the moment when Li Xiang and his two companions were about to start, Chu Feng suddenly spoke to stop them.

Chapter 2762 - Unexpected Pleasant Surprise

"Big brother Chu Feng, what's wrong?" Li Xiang and the others asked in a confused manner.

"Do not instill your spirit power into them directly. Use spirit formations," Chu Feng said.

"But they…" Li Xiang and the others pointed to the great majority of the people present.

Apart from Han Yu, all of the others that were instilling their spirit power into their glass ball were doing so directly without the use of spirit formations.

Furthermore, the spirit formation Han Yu had set up was merely a concealing formation. It was done so that others could not see what he was doing. It was uncertain as to whether or not Han Yu was using spirit formations inside.

Thus, Li Xiang felt that if they were to use spirit formations when all the others were not, it would be somewhat humiliating.

"What others do is their concern. I will only ask you all this, do you all still want to enter the maze formation?" Chu Feng asked.

"We do. Of course we do. Why else would we have come here?" Li Xiang and his two companions nodded their heads repeatedly.

"Then do as I say. Only start after you've made absolute preparations," Chu Feng said.

"Okay. We will do as big brother Chu Feng says, "Li Xiang and the others said.

Had it been before, Chu Feng would not meddle in others' business. However, after Li Xiang and his two buddies addressed him as big brother repeatedly, Chu Feng would feel a bit guilty if he ignored them. Furthermore, it was merely some verbal advice, something he didn't have to put any effort into.

Li Xiang and his two cronies were quite obedient. After they agreed to Chu Feng's advice, they did not immediately start instilling their spirit power into their glass balls. Instead, they all began to set up spirit formations. Furthermore, they were very serious as they set up their spirit formations.

Seeing this, Chu Feng also set up a concealing formation like the one Han Yu did. He sealed himself within it, then began to set up a spirit formation inside.

Actually, there was one benefit to a formation. That is, it could increase the power of small-scale spirit formations. Although the effect was not very strong, it would be of some help.

Chu Feng felt that Han Yu most definitely knew about this. Otherwise, he would not have set up a sealing formation around himself.

After Chu Feng finished setting up the sealing formation, he began to meticulously set up another spirit formation.

As for that spirit formation, it was crucial to Chu Feng instilling spirit power into the that glass ball.

After all, based on the different colors one could bring forth from that glass ball, one would obtain different clues.

Chu Feng did not know what sort of color he would be able to obtain. However, at the very least, he would have to put forth his greatest effort.

Precisely because Chu Feng wanted to put forth his greatest effort, he spent an extremely long period of time setting up his spirit formation.

However, Chu Feng had no idea that during the time when he was wholeheartedly setting up his spirit formation, that Xia Yun'er actually also set up a sealing formation before the crowd.

Her sealing formation was very large. Not only did it seal herself within it, but it also sealed Chu Feng's sealing formation within it.

"What is the Holy Daughter doing?"

At that moment, the crowd, including even the Starfall Holy Land's younger generations, revealed confused expressions. They were truly confused by Xia Yun'er's action.

The reason for that was because Xia Yun'er's attitude toward Chu Feng was simply too unusual.

One should know that while this Holy Daughter was not an ice-cold person, she was someone who would ignore people and cast them far away from her line of sight.

Normally, it would be extremely difficult for one to even speak to her.

Yet, Xia Yun'er was actually this enthusiastic toward Chu Feng. In fact, she was even setting up a powerful sealing formation to seal both Chu Feng and herself within it of her own accord.

What exactly was she planning? The crowd were all guessing about this.

"Our Holy Daughter set up her spirit formation because she does not wish for others to know what she is doing."

"Thus, I hope that everyone present does not try to examine the situation inside the spirit formation through special methods. Else, if I am to discover someone doing so, do not blame me for being impolite," Elder Xingyi spoke with a threatening tone.

There were indeed a lot of people that were planning to use various methods to observe the situation inside Xia Yun'er's sealing formation.

However, after Elder Xingyi said those words, there would naturally not be anyone who would dare to attempt such a thing anymore.

As for Chu Feng, he was wholly concentrated on setting up his spirit formation, and didn't notice what was happening outside. After Chu Feng finished setting up his spirit formation, he sat cross-legged within it and began to instill his spirit power into the glass ball.

Due to the fact that Chu Feng had made sufficient preparations, he managed to achieve a miraculous effort from the very start.

After he began to instill his spirit power into the glass ball, he had managed to turn it purple in merely half an incense stick's worth of time.

However, Chu Feng did not relax with just this. Instead, he gritted his teeth and continued to maintain his all-out status and continued to instill his spirit power into the glass ball.

While Chu Feng was instilling his spirit power into the glass ball, Her Lady Queen was keeping track of the time for Chu Feng.

Originally, Her Lady Queen felt that since Chu Feng was able to turn the glass ball purple in half an incense stick's worth of time, he should be able to turn it golden in an incense stick's worth of time.

However, even though the time limit was about to arrive, the glass ball was still only purple. Her Lady Queen started to become worried.

This was human nature. Their desires were boundless.

If one felt that one would not be able to turn the glass ball golden, then one would naturally not have an extravagant hope in being able to turn the glass ball golden.

Should that be the case , one would not feel regret even if the glass ball did not turn golden. After all, one would not have an extravagant hope for it to turn golden to begin with.

However, should one feel that one might be able to turn the glass ball golden, one would attempt to do so. At that time, one would have entrusted one's hope into turning the glass ball golden. Should one fail, one would naturally feel disappointed.

"Buzz~~~"

Suddenly, that spirit formation let out a sound. At that moment, Chu Feng stopped the continued operation of his spirit formation.

The reason for that was because he knew he had reached the time limit. Chu Feng was no longer able to continue to instill his spirit power into the glass ball.

At that moment, Chu Feng stood up and held the glass ball in his hand.

"It would appear that elder did not lie. It is indeed very difficult to turn this glass ball golden," Chu Feng sighed.

"Even you were only able to turn it purple. Likely, the great majority of people will not have even been able to turn it cyan," Her Lady Queen said.

"As long as Li Xiang and the others are to take this matter seriously, they should be able to turn it cyan. Merely, those who did not set up spirit formations and proceeded to directly instill their spirit power into the glass balls will likely find it very difficult to turn them cyan," Chu Feng said.

"Buzz~~~"

Right at that moment, the glass ball in Chu Feng's hand suddenly started to shine dazzlingly.

Chu Feng lowered his head to look at glass ball. Immediately, his expression changed as joy emerged in his eyes.

The reason why the glass ball had started to shine was because its color had actually changed. It had turned from purple to gold.

"Wow! It actually changed color. Chu Feng, you've succeeded. You've actually managed to successfully turn it golden."

Her Lady Queen was wild with joy and extremely excited. She was simply even happier than Chu Feng.

As for Chu Feng, even though he did not react as excitedly as Her Lady Queen, he had a joyous smile on his face the entire time.

After all, this could be said to be an unexpectedly pleasant surprise.

Chapter 2763 - Being Ridiculed By Others

"Woosh~~~"

Chu Feng raised his hand and dissolved both of his spirit formations.

However, after the spirit formations were dissolved, Chu Feng's expression changed. He was startled.

The reason for that was because he only discovered now that there was actually another sealing formation outside of his sealing formation. That sealing formation had sealed him within it.

Furthermore, there was a figure standing inside the sealing formation. That person was none other than Xia Yun'er.

Xia Yun'er was currently standing not far away and looking at Chu Feng. It was as if she were waiting for him.

When Xia Yun'er's gaze was cast toward Chu Feng's hand, toward the glass ball in his hand, Chu Feng noticed that a clear change of expression emerged in her eyes.

"Young master Chu Feng is amazing. You actually managed to turn the glass ball golden. Exactly how did you accomplish that?" Xia Yun'er asked.

"Merely a fluke," Chu Feng smiled half-heartedly. Then, he asked, "Why is miss Xia here? Did you set up this concealment formation?"

"Indeed, I set this up. I was waiting for you," Xia Yun'er said.

"Waiting for me? Do you need something?" Chu Feng asked.

"I wish to exchange my glass ball with you," Xia Yun'er said.

"Exchange?" Chu Feng frowned slightly. However, he did not directly refuse her. Instead, he asked, "In that case, may I have a look at miss Xia's glass ball?"

"Here," Xia Yun'er took out her own glass ball. It was cyan in color.

"Miss Xia, you're joking with me, right? I feel that with your strength, it would be impossible for you to only be able to turn your glass ball cyan," Chu Feng said.

"I was merely careless. Young master Chu Feng, might you be willing to exchange yours with mine?" Xia Yun'er said coquettishly.

"I'm afraid that's a no," Chu Feng shook his head. Then, he planned to destroy Xia Yun'er's sealing formation to leave.

After all, Chu Feng's golden glass ball was something that Chu Feng had obtained with his own strength. How could he possibly exchange it with Xia Yun'er?

Furthermore, this Xia Yun'er had been plotting against Chu Feng ever since she had arrived.

She had caused Han Yu to deeply detest Chu Feng to the point where he was now simply itching to kill him. As such, how could Chu Feng be willing to conduct an exchange with her?

Right at that moment, Xia Yun'er said, "Do you still remember the favor you owe me?"

Hearing those words, Chu Feng stopped his movement to destroy the sealing formation. He turned to look at Xia Yun'er and said, "I do."

He naturally remembered the day when he had entered that remnant in the Sacred Mountain and obtained a great amount of natural energies.

Later on, he came to find out that the natural energies actually belonged to Xia Yun'er. At that time, he had told Xia Yun'er that he would compensate her.

"How about this, as long as you're willing to exchange your glass ball for mine, I will consider it you having returned half of the favor you owe me," Xia Yun'er said.

"Very well," Chu Feng did not refuse this time around. Instead, he straightforwardly agreed. Furthermore, as he spoke, he tossed his glass ball to Xia Yun'er.

Xia Yun'er did not hesitate. She raised her lily-white hand and caught Chu Feng's glass ball in her hand.

When the glass ball entered her hand, Xia Yun'er revealed an exceptionally charming smile on her face.

"Young master Chu Feng is truly a trustworthy person. I, Xia Yun'er, am definitely going to take you as my friend."

As Xia Yun'er spoke, she tossed her cyan glass ball to Chu Feng.

At the same time Chu Feng received the glass ball, Xia Yun'er waved her sleeve and dissolved her sealing formation.

When the spirit power sparkled about in the sky, Chu Feng left the area restricted by the spirit formation. He was able to clearly see the situation outside.

At that moment, practically everyone present was looking at Chu Feng and Xia Yun'er.

This was especially true for Han Yu. His gaze was akin to two sharp blades. His killing intent was completely revealed. He wished to use his gaze to hack Chu Feng to pieces.

"Big brother Chu Feng, you've finally come out. We must truly thank you."

"That's right. Big brother Chu Feng, if it wasn't for your advice, we would likely not have been able to enter the maze formation."

Right at that moment, Li Xiang and his two buddies rushed toward Chu Feng with gratefulness in their eyes. The three of them were all holding glass balls in their hands. Those glass balls were all cyan in color.

Chu Feng knew the reason why the three of them were so excited. The reason for that was because Chu Feng had swept his gaze across the crowd after coming out of the sealing formation. Of the people that had received glass balls earlier, the great majority of them were holding transparent glass balls.

Of the people of the younger generation present, including both Chu Feng and Xia Yun'er, only eight individuals had managed to change the color of their glass balls.

In other words, of the people present, only eight were qualified to enter the maze formation.

It was precisely because the great majority of people had failed that Li Xiang and his two buddies were so grateful toward Chu Feng.

The reason for that was because the three of them knew very well that they too would've failed had they not listened to Chu Feng's advice.

One thing worthy of mentioning was that Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong's glass balls were both purple.

As for Han Yu, he was even more amazing. His glass ball was actually golden.

"Brother Chu Feng, you've made such a grand spectacle, yet you've only managed to instill enough spirit power into your glass ball to turn it cyan? Truth be told, you've disappointed me."

"After all, you are someone who has obtained an Immortal Armament from the Immortal Armament Villa's Immortal Armament Armory."

"However, if this is all you're capable of, then I must say, your really do not live up to your name at all."

Han Yu stared at the glass ball in Chu Feng's hand and mocked him. There was no trace of the courtesy and manners that had been there when he first met Chu Feng.

However, this was normal. After all, he had been staring at Chu Feng with a gaze filled with killing intent the entire time. Even if he was able to avoid the detection of the people of the younger generation, the experts from the older generation had most definitely already noticed the hostility Han Yu had toward Chu Feng.

Thus, in a situation like this, there was no need for Han Yu to conceal the hatred he felt toward him.

And now, since he had actually found a chance to mock Chu Feng, Han Yu would naturally not let it slip by.

However, after Han Yu said those words, there were many people that began to whisper among themselves.

They were all questioning Chu Feng's strength in terms of world spirit techniques.

Even though the situation was like that, Xia Yun'er did not try to explain things for Chu Feng. Not only that, but she walked directly toward that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder and extended her lily-white hand from her sleeve to reveal her glass ball.

"Golden! It's actually golden!"

"Miss Xia is truly amazing. As expected from the Holy Daughter. Her world spirit techniques are actually this powerful."

Once Xia Yun'er revealed her glass ball, she immediately brought forth praises from countless people. Even the people from the Starfall Holy Land were praising her.

It could be said that the astonishment the crowd felt after Xia Yun'er took out her golden glass ball was even greater than when they saw Han Yu's golden glass ball.

After all, Han Yu was a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, whereas Xia Yun'er was a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist.

There was an entire level of difference between their world spirit techniques.

Even though there was an entire level of difference between them, Xia Yun'er was able to accomplish what Han Yu had managed to accomplish. This revealed her strength even more. Naturally, the crowd would be astonished.

At the same time, Xia Yun'er's performance also served as a clear contrast to Chu Feng's performance.

If Chu Feng had disappointed the crowd with his performance, then Xia Yun'er had brought the crowd an enormously pleasant surprise.

That being said, at the moment when the others were all openly praising Xia Yun'er, the Starfall Eight Immortals did not say anything.

The eight of them were very powerful. They were all able to easily see through Xia Yun'er's sealing formation.

As Xia Yun'er's bodyguards, they would naturally not allow any mishaps to happen to her. Thus, they were observing the situation inside the sealing formation the entire time.

Thus, the eight of them knew very well that Xia Yun'er's golden glass ball was actually Chu Feng's.

As such, the glory that Xia Yun'er was currently enjoying belonged to Chu Feng.

"Young master Chu Feng, I am truly sorry. Our Holy Daughter is quite naughty. I hope that you do not take offense to this."

Right at that moment, a voice transmission entered Chu Feng's ear. It was Elder Xingyi.

Likely, he also felt Xia Yun'er's actions to be too excessive. Thus, he was apologizing to Chu Feng on her behalf.

Chapter 2764 - Another Beauty

Chu Feng had actually already anticipated all of this. After all, real gold feared no fire. Chu Feng possessed actual ability. Sooner or later, he would reveal that.

Thus, Chu Feng was not only not angry about the matter, but he did not take it to heart at all.

While Chu Feng did not respond to Elder Xingyi after he received his apology, Chu Feng did return a smile to Elder Xingyi.

He was telling Elder Xingyi that he did not have to burden himself with this matter because he, Chu Feng, had not taken this matter to heart.

That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder inspected the glass ball in Xia Yun'er's hand. After he discovered that it was real, he was very surprised.

He felt that while Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritists being able to turn the glass ball golden within the time limit was something within expectations, it would be extremely difficult for a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist to turn the glass ball golden within the time limit.

"Am I able to go in now?" Xia Yun'er asked that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder.

"Go on ahead," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder nodded.

Seeing that, Han Yu hurriedly walked up to that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder and took out his own glass ball.

He truly did not wish to miss out on the opportunity to interact with Xia Yun'er at a close distance.

After he got closer to Xia Yun'er, he even revealed an amiable smile at her.

Truth be told, with Han Yu's status and strength, that sort of smile would be able to woo any of the other young women present.

However, Han Yu was extremely lacking in confidence when facing Xia Yun'er. After all, he had attempted to converse with Xia Yun'er many times already. Yet, she did not even bother to pay the slightest bit of attention to him.

However, this time around, Han Yu was surprised.

The reason for that was because after Han Yu cast his charming and handsome smile at Xia Yun'er, Xia Yun'er actually returned a charming smile back at him.

At that moment, it would not even be excessive to say that Han Yu was bursting with joy.

He thought to himself that his efforts had finally paid off, that he had finally managed to achieve something, managed to obtain a return.

He felt that Xia Yun'er must be smiling with such love toward him because of his golden glass ball.

He determined that he would definitely continue to perform properly. He felt that as long as his performance was sufficient, Xia Yun'er would one day fall in love with him.

However, right at the moment when Han Yu was thinking about the future nonstop, at the moment when he was truly thinking that Xia Yun'er had a change in attitude for the better toward him, Xia Yun'er turned around and looked toward Chu Feng.

"Young master Chu Feng, let us enter together."

"Buzz~~~"

Once those words were said, Han Yu felt a buzz in his head. He nearly exploded on the spot. He was about to be infuriated to death.

He was not angry because of Xia Yun'er. Instead, his anger was completely aimed toward Chu Feng.

He felt that if it wasn't for Chu Feng, Xia Yun'er would not be treating him like this.

After all, he had met with Xia Yun'er several times already in the past. At that time, the two of them were getting along with one another very well.

Thinking about this, Han Yu did not say anything else. Instead, he took a fierce glance at Chu Feng before directly entering the path to the maze.

As for Chu Feng, he did not hesitate either. With his glass ball in hand, he, together with Li Xiang and the others, proceeded to walk toward that path.

Originally, Chu Feng and the others had thought that they would be able to ascend the mountain directly. However, as they continued to walk down the spirit formation path, they soon discovered an enormous palace before them.

That palace stopped their path forward.

Furthermore, the entrance to the palace was open. There were even guards from the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan standing by the entrance. It was as if they were waiting for their arrival.

This made Chu Feng and the others realize that it seemed to be quite difficult to enter that maze formation.

Even though they already held guesses in their hearts, Chu Feng and the others did not ask too much about this. Instead, they directly entered the palace before them.

Upon entering the palace, they discovered that there were a lot of people gathered in the palace. Furthermore, they were all members of the younger generation.

They were people from all different powers. It could be said that all of the major powers within the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm were represented here.

At that moment, even Chu Feng gasped with admiration. He gasped at the fact that there were truly a lot of people who had arrived at the Spirit Formation Immortal Domain.

After all, the people of the younger generation gathered here would only be a portion of all of them. After all, there should be a lot of people that chose to enter that training formation.

That said, Chu Feng also noticed that the people there were all holding a glass ball in their hand.

However, the glass balls that the majority of the people here held were all in their original transparent, colorless state.

"It would appear that what that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said was the truth. They were really deliberately making things difficult for you all," Her Lady Queen said with joy at others' misfortune.

If it wasn't for the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan deliberately making things difficult, then those Starfall Holy Land's younger generation would not have been unable to enter this place.

It was precisely because of this deliberate difficulty that those Starfall Holy Land's younger generations failed to enter the palace.

They were careless and did not set up a spirit formation. Instead, they began to instill their spirit power into the glass balls directly.

Because of that, they all ended up failing, and were unable to even attain the cyan color.

"Han Yu. Look, it's young master Han Yu!"

"Isn't that Chu Feng? Brother Chu Feng, you've also come?"

"Who is that beauty? She's so beautiful. Heavens, she's simply too beautiful. Her beauty is likely comparable to Lady Chu Lingxi's beauty."

After Chu Feng and the others arrived, they soon caught the attention of the crowd present there. Practically everyone's gaze was focused on the eight of them.

A lot of people present recognized Han Yu. From this, it could be seen that Han Yu was truly renowned in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm.

However, there were also a small portion of people that recognized Chu Feng. The great majority of them were people from the Immortal Armament Villa. They had seen Chu Feng in the hunting competition.

That being said, the people present, regardless of gender or age, were mostly focused on Xia Yun'er.

From this, it could be seen that regardless of where one might be, beauties would always be popular.

Merely, as Xia Yun'er rarely showed herself, very few people in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm had seen her before.

Thus, the majority of the crowd did not know who she was.

"Shhh, don't make random remarks. That is the Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter, Xia Yun'er."

That being said, there were quite a few knowledgeable individuals in the palace. One such individual revealed Xia Yun'er's identity.

"It's actually one of our Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm's Three Great Beauties, the Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter, Xia Yun'er?"

"No wonder, no wonder she's so beautiful and resembles a celestial fairy."

Upon finding out Xia Yun'er identity, the crowd's gaze grew even more heated.

After all, the title of the Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter was extremely dazzling. Thus, upon finding out Xia Yun'er's identity, she became even more noble in their eyes.

Even though Xia Yun'er had nothing on her, her body seemed to be radiating a halo of light in the eyes of the crowd. It was extremely sparkling.

"Move aside!"

Right at that moment, a shout suddenly sounded from deep within the palace hall.

When that shout was heard, a powerful oppressive might could be felt.

The next moment, the crowd immediately moved to either side and revealed a path before Chu Feng and the others' field of view.

Looking through that path, one could see deep inside the palace hall. At that place were gathered over a hundred individuals.

Those people were all wearing gorgeous clothing. Furthermore, they were all from the Chu Heavenly Clan.

However, when they cast their eyes over, the crowd were unable to help themselves from having their attention captured by a figure.

It was a young woman. Her appearance was very youthful, like that of a young girl.

Beautiful, extremely beautiful.

If Xia Yun'er's beauty was akin to that of a celestial fairy, that this woman's beauty was filled with ingeniousness and purity. Her skin was extremely fair. She gave off a single sensation -- neat and clean.

At that moment, she was sitting on top of something that resembled a table. Her beautiful legs were rocking back and forth nonstop. This made her seem very attractive, cute and fascinating.

Chapter 2765 - Looking For Trouble

While this woman was exceptionally beautiful, she was not amiable or approachable.

Even though she clearly had the title plate of the Chu Heavenly Clan on her waist, the other Chu Heavenly Clan's younger generations present were keeping their distance from her. It was as if they were scared of her.

That being said, Chu Feng was able to sense that the woman's aura was very strong, stronger than even Han Yu's aura.

If Chu Feng guessed correctly, that woman should be a rank seven True Immortal.

Among the members of the younger generation present, this woman's strength surpassed everyone else.

"Chu Lingxi! It's actually Chu Lingxi! Heavens, I have truly not come here in vain! I actually managed to see two of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm's Three Great Beauties!"

At that moment, Li Xiang cried out in alarm. He was so excited that his body started shaking.

Through Li Xiang's cry of alarm, Chu Feng realized the woman's identity.

She was Chu lingxi, the person ranked ninth on the Demon-level Geniuses List. Both her father and grandfather possessed great authority within the Chu Heavenly Clan. As for her mother, she was another Upper Realm's princess.

Chu Lingxi's background could be said to be extremely powerful. In the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, existences like her could be counted with one's fingers.

"Lingxi, it has been close to two years now. We finally meet again."

"I never would've expected you to make such rapid progress. You're actually a rank seven True Immortal already. Since you're a rank seven True Immortal, it would appear that your ranking on the next Heavenly Beloved Martial Competition will increase quite a bit."

Han Yu spoke to Chu Lingxi. His attitude was very eager and attentive. It was the same sort of attitude he spoke with Xia Yun'er with.

However, Chu Lingxi did not even bother to glance at Han Yu. Instead, she stared at Xia Yun'er and said, "You are Xia Yun'er?"

"I am Xia Yun'er. It is my pleasure to meet Miss Lingxi," With a smile on her face, Xia Yun'er curtsied toward Chu Lingxi.

"As the Holy Daughter of the Starfall Holy Land, do you not even know the most fundamental rules? Is Miss Lingxi something you can use to address me?" Chu Lingxi said coldly.

While she had a very pure appearance, she was extremely tyrannical when she spoke.

"In that case, how should I address you?" Xia Yun'er asked in a slightly confused manner.

"Address me as Lady Lingxi," Chu Lingxi said.

"Xia Yun'er pays her respects to Lady Lingxi," Xia Yun'er immediately went along with Chu Lingxi and courteously addressed her as Lady Lingxi.

"And you," Chu Lingxi looked to Han Yu coldly.

"Han Yu pays his respects to Lady Lingxi."

With a smile on his face, Han Yu courteously paid his respects to Chu Lingxi. Compared to Xia Yun'er, his behavior was even more natural. It was as if there was no trace of shame in his actions at all, as if this were something natural.

However, even though Han Yu was so eagerly attentive, Chu Lingxi barely even bothered to glance his way.

Chu Lingxi's body shifted. She had actually leaped to the peak of the palace hall and sat on the enormous lampstand. She said, "I am going to rest. All of you, be quiet when you speak. If anyone is to wake me up, I will remove their head."

After she finished saying those words, Chu Lingxi actually used her two arms as pillows and laid down.

At that moment, the vast palace hall became exceptionally quiet. Even though people were speaking, they were doing so through voice transmissions. No one dared to make any sounds.

From this, it could be seen that Chu Lingxi was a ruthless character. Else, she would not possess such a strong deterrence.

Even though the crowd did not dare to let out any sounds, they still quietly arrived before Chu Feng and the others. They all wanted to get close to Xia Yun'er. Of course, there were also people who wanted to befriend Chu Feng.

While Xia Yun'er was very cordial toward Chu Feng, she was still very distant when talking to others.

Her coldness was different from that of Chu Lingxi. Chu Lingxi was someone who revealed her coldness right on her face.

As for Xia Yun'er, she continued to have a charming smile on her face the entire time. Although she seemed to be as beautiful as a celestial fairy and very approachable, one would be greatly mistaken if one were to think that she was truly approachable.

All of the people in the palace hall who tried to greet her were ignored by her. Even those Chu Heavenly Clan's younger generations were no exception.

It could be said that ever since Xia Yun'er entered the vast palace hall, Chu Lingxi was the only one that had managed to converse with her.

That being said, Chu Feng was not as cold and detached as Xia Yun'er. He would greet all those who tried to greet and converse with him. This was especially true for the people from the Immortal Armament Villa. Chu Feng was exceptionally cordial toward them.

After all, Chu Feng felt that it was all thanks to the Immortal Armament Villa's Villa Master that he had managed to get here at all. Thus, he felt that he owed the Immortal Armament Villa a favor.

Through his conversations with them, Chu Feng came to find out why they were all gathered there.

It turned out that it was not that they did not wish to climb the mountain. Rather, they were not allowed to do so by the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan.

Because of this, that Chu Lingxi even became furious. In the end, it was only after the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief personally came to explain to her that she would definitely not miss the time of the Buried Spirit Lake's eruption that Chu Lingxi calmed down.

Thinking about the attitude the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief had toward the Starfall Eight Immortals and the attitude he had toward Chu Lingxi, Chu Feng felt that the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief was not completely fearless either.

Else, it shouldn't be possible for him to personally come and appease Chu Lingxi.

If he didn't fear offending the Starfall Eight Immortals, then he most definitely feared offending Chu Lingxi.

This was understandable too. After all, the Chu Heavenly Clan was the fully deserving overlord of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm.

Moreover, Chu Lingxi was not an ordinary Chu Heavenly Clansman. She was someone with an enormous background.

Not to mention the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief, it was likely that very few people in the entire Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm would dare to provoke Chu Lingxi.

After a series of conversations, someone asked Chu Feng while looking at Chu Feng's glass ball, "Brother Chu Feng, how come you all were already holding glass balls in your hands when you entered this place?"

At that moment, they were no longer conversing with one another through voice transmissions. Instead, they were openly chatting with each other. Merely, because they were afraid of bothering that tyrannical Chu Lingxi, they all lowered their voices when they were speaking.

"Where did you all obtain your glass balls?" Chu Feng asked.

"We only received our glass balls after entering this palace hall. Reportedly, if we are to instill our spirit power into the crystal balls, we will be able to change their color. The color that our glass ball change into was said to be able to give us clues and increase our chances at reaching Buried Spirit Lake."

"That being said, we do not know exactly what is going on either," Someone said.

After hearing those words, Chu Feng and the others realized that the people here most likely did not know about the maze formation, or the fact that it would not be that easy to reach Buried Spirit Lake this year.

Right at that moment, Yuwen Tingyi suddenly said to Chu Feng, "Brother Chu Feng, they all say that your world spirit techniques are extraordinarily impressive. However, your performance today was only barely satisfactory."

Chu Feng merely smiled at Yuwen Tingyi's mockery, and did not bother to answer.

"Brother Chu Feng, please don't misunderstand me. I, Yuwen Tingyi, am not trying to ridicule you."

"Actually, I believed in your strength greatly. Merely, I do not understand why you've failed to display your strength properly today, and actually only managed to change your glass ball's color to cyan," Yuwen Tingyi said.

"If there's something that you want to say, just say it directly," Chu Feng said.

"Very well. Since that's the case, I will say it directly. I actually wish to swap pointers against you," Yuwen Tingyi said.

"How do you wish to swap pointers?" Chu Feng asked.

Chu Feng knew very well that Yuwen Tingyi was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him. Furthermore, it was very likely by Han Yu's instructions.

However, Chu Feng simply did not fear them.

If they really thought that cyan glass ball was his, then they would suffer miserably.

Chapter 2766 - It's Your Loss

"It just so happens that there's a chessboard that can be controlled with one's spirit power here. Let us use that chessboard to play a round of chess. What do you think?" Yuwen Tingyi pointed to a chessboard.

That chessboard was the table Chu Lingxi was sitting on earlier.

Chu Feng did not immediately reply. Instead, he walked over to the chessboard and began to inspect it carefully.

That chessboard was very large. It resembled a battlefield. The chess pieces from the two opposing sides were all soldiers.

After inspecting it, Chu Feng discovered that Yuwen Tingyi had not lied to him. This was indeed a chessboard controlled with one's spirit power. This should be something that was deliberately placed here by the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan for the people's amusement.

"That's fine," Chu Feng said.

"Brother Chu Feng, don't be so urgent to accept it. Since we are going to swap pointers, we will naturally have to put something at stake," Yuwen Tingyi said.

"What do you want to bet? Go ahead and tell me," Chu Feng welcomed Yuwen Tingyi's challenge. He felt that he would not lose to Yuwen Tingyi. Naturally, he would not be afraid of betting with him.

However, if it were Han Yu that wanted to bet with him, then Chu Feng would have to consider things properly. After all, Han Yu's world spirit techniques were above his own; he was a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist.

"Since we're going to bet, then let us bet on something interesting. How about this, if you are to lose, you'll have to slap yourself once. What say you?" Yuwen Tingyi said to Chu Feng with a beaming smile on his face.

Before Chu Feng could answer, Li Xiang said, "How could one bet with this sort of thing?"

At the same time, the crowd present also began to quietly discuss it amongst themselves.

The crowd was able to tell that Yuwen Tingyi was not merely trying to swap pointers with Chu Feng. Instead, he was trying to create trouble.

Chu Feng did not say anything. Instead, he merely shook his head.

"What's wrong, brother Chu Feng. Do you not dare to accept it?"

Yuwen Tingyi immediately revealed his true character and cast a mocking gaze at Chu Feng.

"I feel that a single slap to the face would be too few. What do you think about a thousand slaps?" Chu Feng said.

Once Chu Feng's words were heard, many of the people present were unable to contain themselves from sucking in a mouthful of cold air.

Originally, they felt that Chu Feng had shaken his head to refuse the condition of the bet. None of them had expected Chu Feng to say this sort of thing.

Chu Feng's words were truly stunning, so much so that even Chu Lingxi, who was laying down on the lampstand at the summit of the palace hall, sat up. Her beautiful eyes were cast downward.

Evidently, even she felt that this swapping of pointers would be interesting.

"Very well, a thousand slaps it is. Merely, if you are to lose, you must not refuse to acknowledge the terms of the bet," Yuwen Tingyi said.

"That is actually what I wanted to tell you," Chu Feng said with a faint smile on his face.

"Haha. You're quite confident," Yuwen Tingyi laughed even more mockingly.

No matter what, Yuwen Tingyi had managed to turn the color of his glass ball purple. As for Chu Feng's glass ball, it was only cyan.

Thus, Yuwen Tingyi felt that Chu Feng was merely courting a disaster to dare to swap pointers with him.

He felt that Chu Feng was simply being reckless.

"If everything's fine, then let us begin," Chu Feng stood at one end of the chessboard.

"Come," Yuwen Tingyi also stood at the other side of the chessboard.

"Buzz~~~"

"Buzz~~~"

The next moment, the two men both instilled their respective spirit power into their chess pieces.

Right after that, the originally tranquil chessboard immediately started to change.

Those chess pieces actually began to stand up as if they were alive. In fact, they were even emitting light from their bodies.

Some of the chess pieces were holding blades in their hands; some were operating war chariots. At that moment, the clamor of close-combat fighting began to be heard. The two sides were both extremely imposing. They were like actual armies as they collided with one another.

The two armies crossed swords. Being controlled by Chu Feng and Yuwen Tingyi, the two armies began to kill one another.

With the fall of each chess piece, blood would splatter everywhere, and their bodies would be cut apart.

How could this be a game of chess? This was simply an actual battlefield. Everything seemed too real.

Seeing this scene, Li Xiang and his two buddies became extremely worried.

The reason for that was because Chu Feng and Yuwen Tingyi could be said to be on par with one another. The battle was reaching a stalemate.

At the moment when Li Xiang and his two buddies were worried, Yuwen Tingyi was even more worried.

Originally, he had thought that, with his strength, he would be able to completely overwhelm Chu Feng.

Never did he expect that he would be locked in battle against Chu Feng.

Seeing his chess pieces being killed one after another, as his chess pieces grew fewer and fewer, he started to panic more and more.

After all, this sort of chess had a very simple rule for victory. That is, one would have to kill every single one of their opponent's chess pieces.

The party with all of their chess pieces killed would be the losing party.

That being said, at the time when Yuwen Tingyi's chess pieces were continuously decreasing in number, Chu Feng's chess pieces were also continuously decreasing in number. The two armies were equally matched the entire time. Their battle was extremely intense.

"Woosh, woosh~~~"

Finally, two more chess pieces died. At that moment, only two chess pieces remained on the board. Both Chu Feng and Yuwen Tingyi had one chess piece each.

"Haha, I have underestimated you. You actually managed to battle me to such a state," Yuwen Tingyi said as he looked to Chu Feng.

"Is it very unexpected? This scene is within my anticipation," Chu Feng said.

"You think you'll win?" Yuwen Tingyi asked.

"If I thought that I would lose, I wouldn't have accepted the bet with you in the first place," Chu Feng said.

"In that case, let us see exactly which of us is stronger," As Yuwen Tingyi spoke, he let out a loud shout. The next moment, surging spirit power began to surge into the last chess piece like a tide.

At that moment, the light on his chess piece started to grow much brighter. Its radiance had covered the entire chessboard.

In that sort of situation, Chu Feng's chess piece seemed to be extremely small and weak.

"Woosh~~~"

Under Yuwen Tingyi's control, his last chess piece held forth its weapon and rushed toward Chu Feng's chess piece.

Chu Feng's chess piece remained motionless before all this.

Seeing this scene, the crowd thought that Chu Feng had given up.

Yuwen Tingyi had already instilled such a massively powerful amount of spirit power into his chess piece. Yet, Chu Feng did not have any reaction.

If this wasn't giving up, what could it possibly be?

Right at that moment, the two chess pieces finally collided with one another. The two chess pieces both began to brandish their respective weapon to slice their opponent.

"Snap~~~"

A stream of blood splattered forth. Then, the bright chessboard immediately grew dim.

Chu Feng's chess piece remained completely undamaged. However, Yuwen Tingyi's chess piece had been beheaded.

"Holy shit! He won! Big brother Chu Feng won!"

"Big brother Chu Feng, you're simply too amazing!"

Li Xiang and his two buddies were unable to contain their excitement, and actually started shouting.

However, their expressions soon changed. Immediately afterward, they closed their mouths.

They suddenly remembered that they could not make a big fuss in that place.

However, even though they had clearly shouted, Chu Lingxi did not do anything to them.

At that moment, Chu Lingxi was sitting on a lampstand on the summit of the palace hall. She resembled a celestial fairy untainted by the mundane world. She looked very carefree and content.

She had a very relaxed expression in her eyes. At this moment, she was truly behaving like an observer.

"This is impossible!" Yuwen Tingyi shouted and stepped several steps back in succession. He did not dare to believe the scene before him.

"The outcome has been determined. Could it be that you're planning to say that the chess pieces are lying?" Chu Feng said.

"There was a problem, there was most definitely a problem with the chessboard. How could I lose to you?"

"This glass ball of mine is purple, whereas yours is merely cyan! Your spirit power is inferior to my own! How could you possibly defeat me?!" Yuwen Tingyi shouted loudly.

"Heh…" Chu Feng laughed and shook his head. He did not bother to explain.

"This chessboard is something personally created by our clan's clan chief. There is definitely no issue with it. It is you who has lost," Right at that moment, an Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder spoke.

It turned out, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder had been inside the palace hall the entire time. Even though he did not say anything, he had witnessed everything that had happened in the palace hall.

Chapter 2767 - Stunning Everyone

"Did you hear that? Even the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said that you've lost. Yet you're still not admitting your defeat. You're simply a sore loser," Li Xiang pointed at Yuwen Tingyi.

"Forget about it, there's no need to continue to make things difficult for him," Right at that moment, Chu Feng patted Li Xiang's shoulder. He said, "Since he's a sore loser, there's no need for us to force him. After all, it was a swapping of pointers to begin with. There is no need for us to make things difficult for him."

"Bullshit! Who are you calling a sore loser?!" Yuwen Tingyi pointed at Chu Feng and shouted loudly.

"If you're not a sore loser, why aren't you fulfilling your obligation as per our bet?" Chu Feng asked.

"You…" Yuwen Tingyi's opened his eyes wide. Anger and menace filled his eyes.

However, faced with that glare, Chu Feng merely smiled. He was not affected in the slightest.

He continued to look at Yuwen Tingyi. Even though Chu Feng's gaze was gentle, he brought forth an enormous oppression toward Yuwen Tingyi, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"It's merely a thousand slaps. I, Yuwen Tingyi, will fulfill my bet."

After Yuwen Tingyi finished saying those words, he raised his hands and began to slap his own face.

"Paa. Paa." Slapping sounds were being heard nonstop.

This Yuwen Tingyi could be said to be quite a tough character. He was slapping himself with enormous strength. Not only did he leave his face covered with blood, but he had even distorted it.

Seeing this scene, Han Yu revealed an ugly expression. As for Yuwen Hualong, he revealed an even uglier expression.

To publicly slap oneself was a truly humiliating thing to do.

Furthermore, this bet was something that Yuwen Tingyi had put forth himself.

This could simply be said to be suffering from the consequences of one's actions. Thus, the more Yuwen Hualong thought about it, the more furious he became.

"Brother Chu Feng's chess skill is superb. Might you be willing to play a round of chess with me?"

Right at that moment, Yuwen Hualong stood forth. Even though he was speaking to Chu Feng with a very tranquil and even-tempered tone, Chu Feng was able to see deep hatred and killing intent in his eyes.

Not only was Yuwen Hualong feeling massive hatred toward Chu Feng, but he even wanted to kill Chu Feng.

"You still want to continue to bet with face slapping?" Chu Feng asked.

"Of course. However, we would have to change the number of slaps," Yuwen Hualong said.

"How many?" Chu Feng asked.

"The loser is to slap himself ten thousand times," Yuwen Hualong spoke those words one word at a time.

"Heavens! Ten thousand slaps?!" Hearing that number, many people were surprised.

Yuwen Hualong's intention was extremely clear. He planned to obtain revenge for Yuwen Tingyi.

Li Xiang saw that the situation was bad, and immediately said to Chu Feng, "Big brother Chu Feng, let's not compete with him anymore."

After all, Li Xiang felt that Chu Feng had only barely managed to defeat Yuwen Tingyi earlier.

Thus, he was deeply afraid that Chu Feng would lose should he compete against Yuwen Hualong.

After all, everyone knew that Yuwen Hualong was superior to Yuwen Tingyi in both martial cultivation and world spirit techniques.

Since Chu Feng had barely managed to defeat Yuwen Tingyi, he would undoubtedly be defeated should he take on Yuwen Hualong.

"You shut up! I am speaking with him and not you!"

Suddenly, Yuwen Hualong grew furious. He waved his sleeve, and a strong wind swept forth, causing Li Xiang to be knocked flying.

Even though he did not try to kill Li Xiang and his attack was not very powerful, it remained that his strength was simply too strong. He was a rank six True Immortal. As such, how could Li Xiang possibly be able to withstand his attack?

When Li Xiang landed on the ground, he was unable to move in the slightest. Even speaking had become impossible for him. He was spraying out mouthfuls of blood nonstop.

Seeing Li Xiang acting like this, his two buddies from the Sacred Pellet Villa immediately rushed forth and took out medicinal pellets to feed Li Xiang. After that, they began to help heal Li Xiang's injuries.

Seeing this scene, Chu Feng revealed a very calm expression. He turned around and said to Yuwen Hualong, "You said ten thousand slaps, was it?"

"That's right," Yuwen Hualong said.

"I, Chu Feng, am willing to accept that. However, I have a condition of my own," Chu Feng said.

"What is it? Speak away," Yuwen Hualong said.

"If you are to lose, you cannot slap yourself," Chu Feng said.

"Cannot slap myself? What do you want then?" Yuwen Hualong asked.

"If you are to lose to me, you will have to kneel before my brother and allow him to give you ten thousand slaps," Chu Feng said to Yuwen Hualong.

Chu Feng remained extremely calm as he said those words. There was no trace of anger in his eyes at all. However, his gaze was extremely sharp, and was fixed on Yuwen Hualong.

Once Chu Feng said those words, the expressions of many people present changed. No one had expected Chu Feng to put forth this sort of demand.

In fact, even Chu Lingxi, who was still sitting on the lampstand, had a sparkle in her beautiful eyes.

When the others were all this surprised, Li Xiang and his two buddies were even more astonished.

After all, anyone could tell that Chu Feng had put forth this demand to stand up for Li Xiang.

However, they had only known Chu Feng for a very short period of time. There was not too deep of a friendship between them. In fact, they had been hostile toward one another before.

Yet, Chu Feng was helping Li Xiang like this. This was simply something that Li Xiang had not even dare to imagine before.

At that moment, warm sensations started to flow through his body.

"Hahaha!" Yuwen Hualong suddenly burst into loud laughter. Then, his expression changed enormously. Not only did his laughter stop in an instant, but an incomparably sinister expression appeared on his face. He looked to Chu Feng with a gaze even more frightening than that of ferocious beasts. "Very well, I accept."

Yuwen Hualong accepted Chu Feng's condition. The reason for that was because he was absolutely confident that he would be able to defeat Chu Feng.

As Yuwen Tingyi's brother, he knew his strength the best.

It was as others viewed them: Yuwen Hualong was superior to Yuwen Tingyi in both martial cultivation and world spirit techniques.

Even though the two of them were both Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritists, Yuwen Hualong's world spirit techniques were capable of completely crushing Yuwen Tingyi's world spirit techniques.

Since Chu Feng was only able to barely defeat Yuwen Tingyi, Yuwen Hualong felt that he would be able to effortlessly defeat Chu Feng. He felt that there was simply no chance for Chu Feng to win against him.

Thus, with absolute certainty in victory, how could he fear Chu Feng?

Not to mention kneeling before someone and having them give him ten thousand slaps, even if it was an even more serious demand, he would not be afraid.

Yuwen Tingyi felt that he absolutely would not lose.

He felt that the only one that would lose today would be Chu Feng.

"In that case, let us begin," Chu Feng said.

At this moment, Yuwen Hualong stood where Yuwen Tingyi stood earlier.

"Buzz~~~"

Right after Yuwen Tingyi stood there, the chessboard that originally only had a single chess piece left immediately started to change. It began to shine with light.

When the intense light dissipated, the blood that had covered the chessboard had disappeared. The dead chess pieces all returned to normal. Furthermore, they were all standing orderly at their respective positions.

At this moment, this chessboard had returned to its initial appearance.

"Buzz~~~"

After the chessboard returned to normal, Yuwen Hualong began to instill his boundless spirit power into his chess pieces.

Without even calling for the start of the game, he began to launch his offensive at Chu Feng with his chess pieces. Furthermore, his offensive was extremely ferocious.

Different from Yuwen Tingyi, Yuwen Hualong had instilled his strongest spirit power into his chess pieces from the very beginning.

He was planning to defeat Chu Feng with one move.

When Yuwen Hualong unleashed his attack, Chu Feng also controlled his chess pieces to meet the incoming chess pieces head-on.

Seeing this scene, many of the people present started to worry for Chu Feng.

After all, the disparity between the two sides was simply too enormous.

If the two opposing sides of chess pieces were two armies, then Yuwen Hualong's army would be akin to celestial troops and generals.

They were glistening with radiance and emitting extremely imposing might.

As for Chu Feng's chess pieces, although they were also emitting light, they were simply incomparable to Yuwen Hualong's chess pieces.

Thus, Chu Feng's army would be akin to an army of mortals. They appeared to be completely mediocre.

No matter how powerful an army of mortals might be, how could it possibly contend against an army of celestial troops and generals?

"Woosh, woosh, woosh~~~"

However, no matter what the bystanders were thinking, the two chess piece armies soon collided with one another.

At that moment, blood started to splatter about. Screams were being heard. This chessboard had returned to being a battlefield. It was a cruel and ruthless battlefield where one could only speak using one's strength.

However, after a long time of mutual slaughter, the crowd present all revealed stunned expressions. In fact, even Yuwen Hualong's mouth was wide open.

He had unleashed his full strength from the very beginning. Thus, why would his chess pieces still be locked in battle, why would the outcome of the battle still be undetermined?

Chapter 2768 - Public Shamelessness

Yuwen Hualong started to panic. Bead-sized drops of sweat began to flow down his body nonstop.

At the same time, he became even more serious. He did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

However, no matter how serious he became, he was still unable to suppress Chu Feng. The match between the two of them seemed to be duplicating the result of Chu Feng's match against Yuwen Tingyi.

The two parties were locked in battle, and seemed to be evenly matched. The outcome of the battle was undetermined.

Finally, only two chess pieces remained on the board. Chu Feng and Yuwen Hualong each possessed a single chess piece left.

"Yuwen Hualong, are you ready to be slapped?" Chu Feng raised his head and asked Yuwen Hualong.

Yuwen Hualong did not answer him. He was controlling his final chess piece and sending it to attack Chu Feng's final chess piece. He wanted to defeat Chu Feng with a surprise attack.

However, when Yuwen Hualong's chess piece approached Chu Feng's chess piece, Chu Feng's chess piece suddenly raised the weapon it held. Then, a ray of light flashed past, and Yuwen Hualong's chess piece was beheaded. Its body fell to the ground.

"This is impossible!!!"

Yuwen Hualong's expression turned pale. Overwhelmed with shock and disbelief, he stepped backwards and faltered like a deflated ball. His expression was extremely dejected.

The match between Chu Feng and Yuwen Hualong not only duplicated the scene of the match between Chu Feng and Yuwen Tingyi on the chessboard, but even Yuwen Hualong's reaction was practically the same as Yuwen Tingyi's reaction.

He was incapable of believing the truth before him. He refused to believe it to be real.

However, the outcome of the battle had been determined. He had no choice but to accept it.

"Since you have been defeated, go on and kneel," Chu Feng spoke coldly.

"Big brother Chu Feng, let's… let's just forget about it," Right at that moment, Li Xiang suddenly spoke out against it.

Li Xiang was no longer covered in blood. Apart from his slightly pale complexion, he appeared to be fine.

Merely, he had a timid expression in his eyes. It seemed that he was deeply afraid of Yuwen Hualong, and did not wish to put him in a difficult situation.

"Yuwen Hualong, since you've lost, you must comply with the bet. Kneel before Li Xiang immediately."

Chu Feng reacted as if he did not hear Li Xiang and continued to pressure Yuwen Hualong.

That said, Yuwen Hualong had managed to tell that Li Xiang was scared. Thus, he ignored Chu Feng, and instead turned his gaze toward Li Xiang. His gaze was extremely cold and threatening.

"Big brother Chu Feng, let's just forget about it. Look at me, I'm fine, aren't I?" Li Xiang was truly scared. He smiled wryly and urged Chu Feng to drop the matter.

"Look at this, it's not that I'm unable to take defeat with grace, rather, it's that friend of yours who doesn't dare to have me kneel before him, doesn't dare to touch me," At that moment, Yuwen Hualong started to laugh complacently.

Seeing such a Yuwen Hualong, Li Xiang revealed a displeased expression.

That was a normal reaction. After all, no one would like to be insulted, much less being publicly insulted before such a large crowd of people.

Yuwen Hualong noticed the change in Li Xiang's expression. However, not only did he not back off, he instead said to Li Xiang provocatively, "What's this? Am I wrong? Could it be that you dare to hit me?"

"You…" Li Xiang revealed a faint trace of anger in his eyes. He seemed to want to say something, but ended up hesitating. In the end, he said nothing.

"Li Xiang, are you certain that you want to do this?"

Chu Feng turned around and asked Li Xiang, "Are you certain that you're planning to have him beat you up for free, certain that you're not planning to look further into this matter?"

At that moment, Li Xiang was feeling very embarrassed. He did not dare to look Chu Feng in the eyes. Thus, he lowered his head.

Chu Feng noticed that Li Xiang's fists were clenched tightly. It could be seen that he was feeling extremely tangled.

They were at a young and vigorous age. If one were to say that Li Xiang did not wish to attack Yuwen Hualong, that he did not wish to obtain revenge, then it would be a lie.

Merely, Li Xiang was too scared. He was scared that Yuwen Hualong would come seek revenge against him in the future. After all, they were all members of the younger generation. There would still be a lot of opportunities for them to encounter one another in the future.

Thus, in the end, Li Xiang shook his head and said, "Big brother Chu Feng, I appreciate your kind intentions. However, it's really better to just forget it."

"Hahaha, you really can't blame me for this, Chu Feng. If you want to blame someone, then you can only blame your brother for being too cowardly."

"I am willing to let him hit me. Unfortunately, he doesn't dare to hit me."

"Thus, I'm afraid that even though you want me to kneel,I won't be able to do so."

Yuwen Hualong laughed complacently. His laughter was very loud. At the same time, he was even gesticulating with his hands joyously. It was as if he was not being a sore loser, but rather forced to not comply with his bet. His appearance was truly arrogant.

At that moment, not to mention Chu Feng, even many of the bystanders present were feeling furious.

It was one thing to be a sore loser. However, this Yuwen Hualong actually dared to be so arrogant as to taunt the victor. This was simply too shameless of an act.

"Chu Feng, it's true that you possess some abilities and a spirit of loyalty for your brother. Unfortunately, you're incapable of making good friends. You actually ended up befriending a coward like that."

"I'm starting to doubt now. After all, they all say that birds of a feather flock together. When your friend is a coward, I wonder, wouldn't you also be a coward yourself?"

Yuwen Hualong continued to mock and ridicule Chu Feng. He had no plans to stop.

It would appear that he truly hated Chu Feng bitterly. This was even more so after he was defeated by Chu Feng. His hatred toward Chu Feng had more than doubled.

And now, a rare opportunity to ridicule Chu Feng was present before him. He would naturally not let this opportunity slip by him.

"Shut up! Shut the hell up!" Right at that moment, Li Xiang shouted at Yuwen Hualong. He continued to shout hysterically, "Chu Feng is not a coward! Big brother Chu Feng is not a coward!"

"Oh? Sure, sure, sure. He's not a coward. But what about you, aren't you a coward?"

"Could it be that you dare to tell me that you're not a coward?"

Yuwen Hualong looked to Li Xiang with a beaming smile on his face. His gaze was filled with mockery.

Li Xiang's face turned red. He glared at Yuwen Hualong with his furious gaze and shouted loudly, "Who says I'm a coward?! Who says I don't dare to hit you?!"

Once Li Xiang said those words, the crowd present was stunned. Only Chu Feng revealed a faint smile on his face.

Chu Feng knew that Li Xiang had exploded, and a great show would soon occur.

Yuwen Hualong also seemed to have noticed that the situation had turned sour. Thus, he no longer continued to taunt Li Xiang. Instead, faced with Li Xiang who was shouting at him, Yuwen Hualong actually turned around and planned to drop the subject just like that.

"You, kneel before me!" Right at that moment, Li Xiang pointed at Yuwen Hualong and shouted again.

His eyes were wide open and glowering. All of his veins were bulging. He resembled an enraged lion. He had quite an imposing look to him.

"What did you say?"

Yuwen Hualong turned around and looked to Li Xiang.

He seemed to not dare to believe his ears, to believe what he had just heard.

Even though he was able to tell that Li Xiang had exploded, he did not anticipate that Li Xiang would dare to speak to him in such a manner.

"I said, kneel before your daddy, me, so that your daddy can give you ten thousand slaps to the face!" Li Xiang spoke loudly.

The next moment, Yuwen Hualong's expression changed greatly. He looked to Li Xiang and shouted, "Motherfucker! You dare to speak to me in such a manner?! Have you grown tired of living?!"

Judging from this, if Li Xiang dared to utter another word, he would attack him.

"Yuwen Hualong, what is this? Could it be that you're planning to act like a sore loser?" Chu Feng asked.

"That's right, I'm fucking acting like a sore loser. What can you possibly do about it? Could it be that you want to force me to kneel before him? Do you think you're capable of that?" Yuwen Hualong pointed at Chu Feng.

He actually publicly refused to comply with the agreement, publicly refused to acknowledge the promise after losing the chess match.

That being said, if Yuwen Hualong wanted to act shamelessly, Chu Feng really would not be able to do anything to him.

After all, Yuwen Hualong was a rank six True Immortal. He was an existence with the same level of cultivation as Han Yu. With the strength that Chu Feng currently possessed, he would not be a match for Yuwen Hualong.

Likely, Yuwen Hualong only dared to act this aggressively because he was certain Chu Feng's strength was inferior to his own.

One thing worthy of mentioning was that no one present actually stood forth to say anything.

Xia Yun'er didn't say anything. She was watching all this like an observer.

As for that Chu Lingxi who was sitting on the lampstand, even though she revealed a disgusted expression in her eyes when Yuwen Hualong refused to comply with the agreement, she also did not say anything.

Chapter 2769 - Slap To Satisfaction

"Han Yu, as Yuwen Hualong's friend, aren't you going to say a few words to him?"

"Could it be that you're planning to look on as he continues to do wrong?"

Chu Feng turned his gaze toward Han Yu.

Chu Feng knew very well that if Han Yu were to say something at a time like this, Yuwen Hualong would absolutely comply.

Even though the relationship between Han Yu and Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi seemed to be that of friends, Chu Feng felt that their relationship was more like master and servants.

Both Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi deeply feared Han Yu.

They would listen to his every word.

In this sort of situation, as long as Han Yu had any brains, he would persuade Yuwen Hualong.

After all, everyone could tell who was wrong and who was right. As long as Han Yu still cared about his own image, he would absolutely not stand on Yuwen Hualong's side.

"Chu Feng, what are you saying? Although brother Hualong and I are close friends, this is his personal business. He has made his own decision. Thus, what can I possibly say about it?" Han Yu said.

Hearing those words, Chu Feng's expression changed slightly. He had not expected Han Yu to be this shameless.

However, Chu Feng did not give up. He said, "Are you unable to tell who is right and who is wrong?"

"Haha…"

"I will not assess who is wrong and who is right. I can only tell you apologetically that I will not involve myself in this business between the two of you."

Han Yu raised his hand and shrugged his shoulders. He revealed that he was powerless to do anything about the matter.

When Han Yu voiced his decision to not interfere, the matter entered a deadlock.

After all, if Yuwen Hualong insisted on refusing to comply with his agreement, there would not be anything that Chu Feng could do.

As for those present with weight behind their words, they decided to not involve themselves in the matter. Thus, Chu Feng felt rather helpless.

If he had to blame someone, then he could only blame the fact that he had underestimated Yuwen Hualong and Han Yu. He had underestimated how thick their skins were.

At the moment when Chu Feng was at a loss as to what to do, Han Yu, Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong all looked to Chu Feng with beaming smiles on their faces. Their gazes were filled with provocation.

They seemed to be saying 'so what if we've lost? So what if we refuse to comply with our agreement? What can you possibly do about it?'

"Cough, cough…"

Right at that moment, a couple resounding coughs sounded from the corner of the palace hall.

At the same time, a figure began to walk toward Chu Feng and Yuwen Hualong.

That person was none other than the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder who had declared that the chessboard was created by their Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief.

After that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder approached, he asked Yuwen Hualong, "Yuwen Hualong, it seems that you're determined to refuse to comply with your agreement?"

"So what if I am and so what if I'm not? I seem to recall that this is none of your concern, no?" Yuwen Hualong said in a very unyielding manner.

While he appeared to be very unyielding, his heart was actually lacking in confidence when he said those words.

After all, this Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was very powerful. He was not someone that they, people of the younger generation, could contend against.

Moreover, they were in the territory of the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan. If the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan was to truly insist on involving themselves in the matter, there would truly not be anything that he could do.

"Haha…" That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder laughed indifferently. Then, he said, "When you made the gambling agreement, the people present all witnessed it. It just so happens that this old man was also present. Thus, I can be said to be a witness to your gambling agreement."

"As a witness, I am qualified to uphold justice. I'm afraid that it won't do if you continue to insist on refusing to comply with the agreement after losing."

After that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder finished saying those words, with a thought, Yuwen Hualong revealed a painful expression on his face. Following that, a 'putt' was heard, and Yuwen Hualong was forced to kneel on the ground.

"Senior, this is their personal matter. I'm afraid that it's unsuitable for you to interfere and bully the young, no?"

"Could it be that your Ancient Era's Serpent Clan plans to take advantage of its position to bully others?"

Right at that moment, Han Yu stood forth and put forth the label of 'bullying the young' on that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder.

Hearing those words, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder started to frown.

Actually, he merely was unable to tolerate Yuwen Hualong's shameless behavior.

If he was truly to be labeled with 'bullying the young,' then he would be placed in quite a difficult situation.

After all, in the end, this was a personal bet between Chu Feng and Yuwen Hualong. There was no obligation for the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan to involve themselves in this matter.

Right at that moment, Chu Feng said, "Brother Han Yu, didn't you say that you were not going to involve yourself in this matter?"

Then, with a beaming smile on his face, he looked to Han Yu. "Oh, I get it. When Yuwen Hualong was refusing to comply with his agreement, you would not involve yourself in this matter. However, when Yuwen Hualong ended up suffering, you actually did involve yourself in this matter."

"In the end, you merely do not wish to have Yuwen Hualong suffer losses."

"However, if that's the case, then I must say brother Han Yu, I am very disappointed in you."

"They all say that you're someone who can clearly distinguish between gratitude and grudges. However, seeing things now, you're merely a vile individual who would shield one's friends. As for the so-called being distinctive of gratitude and grudges, haha, it's actually nothing more than a false reputation."

"You…" Han Yu started to gnash his teeth furiously. He pointed at Chu Feng and wanted to refute him.

Before Han Yu could speak, Chu Feng interrupted him and turned to ask the crowd, "What about me? Was what I said incorrect? Everyone, say, am I not correct?"

"Could it be that it really was I, Chu Feng, who was wrong today? Could it be that it was I, Chu Feng, who was at fault?"

"You're not wrong. Brother Chu Feng, you're not at fault. We have all witnessed this thing. You were very reasonable."

"That's right. The one at fault is not you. We can bear witness to this matter."

At that moment, many people in the crowd began to speak out in support of Chu Feng.

Even though they did not explicitly state that it was Han Yu and Yuwen Hualong in the wrong, the intention behind their words was simply saying that Han Yu and Yuwen Hualong were in the wrong.

"Speaking of it, was it not Han Yu who stated that he would not involve himself in this matter earlier?" Chu Feng asked the crowd.

"That's right. He said that. We all heard it."

"Young master Han Yu, you indeed said that earlier. Could it be that you've forgotten what you said?"

The crowd began to echo in agreement. There were even people who began to question Han Yu.

In this sort of situation, even though Han Yu was feeling extremely unwilling to accept it, he found it unsuitable to say anymore.

After all, Xia Yun'er and Chu Lingxi were among the people present. He feared that if he was to do something too excessive, he would earn their contempt.

Thus, in the end, Han Yu waved his sleeve, turned around and said no more.

Merely, his fists within his sleeves were clenched tightly and making creaking sounds. His expression was also frighteningly malevolent.

Chu Feng knew very well that Han Yu would not swallow this anger so easily.

However, so what? Han Yu had felt enormous hostility toward Chu Feng from the very beginning. Even if something like this didn't happen., Han Yu would, sooner or later, try to take care of Chu Feng.

Thus, Chu Feng simply did not concern himself with Han Yu's anger. Instead, he looked to the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder and clasped his fist. "Thank you, senior, for upholding justice."

"My little friend, you do not have to be this courteous. This is merely my duty."

After being thanked by Chu Feng, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder actually revealed a smile on his face.

Then, he looked to Li Xiang and said, "Little friend, we must handle things fairly. Ten thousand slaps, you must not surpass that amount."

"Right," At that moment, Li Xiang did not hesitate. He rolled up his sleeves and revealed his thick and robust arms. Then, taking large strides, he walked toward Yuwen Hualong.

However, Li Xiang did not start slapping Yuwen Hualong immediately. Instead, he asked Yuwen Hualong, "What did you say I was earlier?"

Yuwen Hualong wanted to speak. However, before he could start, Li Xiang's arm had already swung forth. "Paa!" Li Xiang's hand landed ruthlessly on Yuwen Hualong's cheek.

At the same time, Li Xiang shouted, "Your daddy is not a fucking coward!"

After he finished saying those words, Li Xiang's two arms began to swing nonstop.

"Paa!"

"Paa!"

"Paa!"

Loud echos that sounded like firecrackers began to sound in the palace hall nonstop.

However, those were no firecrackers. Instead, they were the sound of Li Xiang's hands landing on Yuwen Hualong's cheeks nonstop.

Seeing Li Xiang's powerful slaps and Yuwen Hualong's furious yet powerless expression, Chu Feng revealed a smile on his face again.

He knew that those ten thousand slaps would be sufficient to satisfy Li Xiang.

Chapter 2770 - Playing Chess Against Han Yu

Like firecrackers, the sound of slapping began to resonate through the palace hall.

If one were to have just entered this palace and did not understand the situation, they would definitely be extremely astonished.

Yuwen Hualong, a rank six True Immortal, was actually kneeling before a rank one True Immortal and allowing that rank one True Immortal to slap his face without uttering a single word. This was truly astonishing.

Fortunately, as Li Xiang was a rank one True Immortal, no matter how much strength he put behind his slaps, he was unable to cause any damage to Yuwen Hualong.

This was the profoundness of martial cultivation. When the disparity between two cultivators was too enormous, one would simply not be able to cause any damage to one's opponent.

It was precisely because of this enormous disparity that cultivators would disregard everything to attain higher levels of cultivation.

That said, even though Yuwen Hualong was not feeling any pain from Li Xiang's slaps, he was most definitely feeling a fiery pain to his face. [1. The face here is not literal.]

What he had lost today was his dignity.

To him, this was humiliation.

Ten thousand slaps. That was not a small number at all.

Fortunately, Li Xiang was very fast with his slaps. In merely a short moment, all ten thousand slaps landed on Yuwen Hualong's cheeks.

After the slaps all landed, there was no trace of injury on Yuwen Hualong's face. The only thing present was anger.

Instead, it was Li Xiang's palms that had turned deep red and were greatly swollen.

However, Li Xiang was feeling extremely pleased.

A single word was written on his face: relief.

After the ten thousand slaps were given, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder released Yuwen Hualong.

At that moment, Yuwen Hualong was like a volcano on the verge of eruption. He was looking at Li Xiang and seemingly wanting to bite him to pieces.

However, he had no choice but to restrain his anger. After all, he knew very well that if he were to attack Li Xiang here, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder would definitely make him suffer.

After all, when that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder stood forward to uphold fairness, he had revealed his standpoint. That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was discriminating in favor of Chu Feng and the others.

Due to the fact that Yuwen Hualong was unable to erupt in anger even though he was extremely furious, he started to feel extremely sullen.

"Brat, remember this. Today, you've done what you should've never done."

"You will regret this one day."

Yuwen Hualong pointed at Li Xiang and spoke fiercely.

"Humph," Li Xiang actually snorted at Yuwen Hualong disdainfully. Then, filled with confidence, Li Xiang said to Yuwen Hualong, "You should also remember this. What your daddy did here today is the most satisfying fucking thing ever. Your daddy will absolutely not regret this."

"Very well," Yuwen Hualong said with rage fuming between gritted teeth.

After saying those words, he shot a fierce and threatening gaze at Li Xiang.

However, Yuwen Hualong did not say anymore. Instead, he turned around and walked over to Yuwen Tingyi and Han Yu.

At that moment, both Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi were revealing very malevolent expressions. Their expressions were somewhat frightening. It was as if they were not humans at all, but rather ferocious beasts with an enormous desire to eat people.

Intense anger filled their eyes. Anyone could tell how furious and unreconciled they were.

Because of this, even though the crowd wanted to ridicule them, very few people dared to actually say anything. They were all secretly sending voice transmissions to each other in private.

However, even though the great majority of people were afraid of Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi, that did not mean that everyone present was afraid of them.

Take for example the people from the Chu Heavenly Clan. They were not afraid of Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi. At that moment, they did not try to conceal their conversations at all. Openly, before everyone, they began to use disdainful tones to insult Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi.

They were insulting the two of them for overestimating their capabilities, only to court their own humiliation.

However, this was normal too. After all, it was Yuwen Tingyi who had suggested the game of chess. It was also Yuwen Tingyi who had put forth the bet of slapping one's face should one lose.

The disgrace Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong were suffering from right now was merely the consequences of their own actions.

Faced with the Chu Heavenly Clansmen's insults and humiliations, not to mention Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi, not even Han Yu, one of the very few demon-level geniuses in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, was able to say anything.

Thus, they were furious. The more they thought about it, the more sullen they became.

"Young master Han Yu," right at that moment, a gentle voice was heard.

Once that voice was heard, Han Yu's heart was immediately shaken. He immediately became spirited.

The reason for that was because that voice was from the Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter, Xia Yun'er.

"Miss Xia, is there something you need?" Han Yu revealed an eagerly attentive smile.

"I've heard that young master Han Yu's chess skills are also extremely excellent. We have all witnessed young master Chu Feng's chess skills. Young master Han Yu, why don't you swap pointers with young master Chu Feng?"

"I think that if the two of you are to swap pointers with one another, it would most definitely be extremely marvelous. We would also be able to feast our eyes," Xia Yun'er said.

"This damned girl, how could she be this abominable? She is simply unable to tolerate you doing well for yourself."

"You've merely taken her bits of natural energy. Is there really a need for her to loathe you like this?"

Once Xia Yun'er said those words, Her Lady Queen was immediately furious. Her face started to bulge angrily.

The reason for that was because Xia Yun'er was simply being too excessive. Ever since she had arrived, she'd been deliberately inciting disharmony between Chu Feng and Han Yu.

At that moment, Chu Feng and Han Yu were simply unable to tolerate one another. All of this was because of Xia Yun'er.

Her Lady Queen did not anticipate that Xia Yun'er would still not let Chu Feng get away, and was still planning to create trouble for Chu Feng.

Most importantly, Chu Feng had already given her his golden glass ball.

Yet, not only was Xia Yun'er unappreciative, but she actually still targeted Chu Feng. With this, how could Her Lady Queen not be furious?

It was only because Her Lady Queen's current strength was insufficient. If not for that, she would most definitely demand that Chu Feng let her out so that she could personally tear up Xia Yun'er's mouth.

"Eggy, it's alright. I instead want to see exactly what Xia Yun'er is planning to do."

Compared to Her Lady Queen, Chu Feng was rather calm and collected.

Hearing what Xia Yun'er said, a joyous expression emerged in Han Yu's eyes. He looked to Chu Feng as if he had managed to grasp an opportunity to get revenge against him.

"Actually, I also wish to swap pointers against brother Chu Feng. Merely… I am, after all, a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, whereas brother Chu Feng is still only a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist."

"I was merely afraid that brother Chu Feng would not dare to swap pointers with me. That is why I did not put forth this request."

"Brother Han Yu already knew that I wouldn't dare even without making the request?" Chu Feng asked.

"Are you to say that you dare to accept?" Han Yu asked.

"Had it been someone else, I might not be daring enough to accept their challenge. However, as for you, I just so happen to not be afraid," Chu Feng said.

"Boom~~~"

Chu Feng's words were like a thunderstrike. All of the people present were extremely shocked by his words.

What was this? A Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist wanted to contend against a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist?

This was simply too irrational. After all, one would have no chance of winning in such a confrontation.

After all, even against Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong, Chu Feng had only managed to barely win.

If he were to contend against a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, then he would simply have no chance of victory at all.

The crowd was truly unable to understand what Chu Feng was thinking to actually say that sort of thing.

Not to mention the others, even Her Lady Queen was very astonished.

"Chu Feng, what are you doing? Even if you are unable to bear the anger, you shouldn't accept such a challenge. This is simply too unfair of a match," Her Lady Queen said to Chu Feng. She wanted to urge Chu Feng to not play a round of chess against Han Yu.

"Eggy, trust me this once. I am definitely not doing this out of impulse," Chu Feng said.

"You… forget about it. Do as you want," in the end, Her Lady Queen reached a compromise.

At that moment, Han Yu asked, "Brother Chu Feng, are you serious?"

Originally, he had thought that Chu Feng would definitely not answer his challenge. Never did he expect that Chu Feng would actually accept the match.

With such a great opportunity before him, Han Yu would definitely grasp it. Even if he was to be declared to have an unfair advantage by others, he must still defeat Chu Feng.

Else, he would be left feeling extremely stifled by the anger in his heart today.

"I am naturally serious," Chu Feng replied calmly.

"It seems that you're very confident. Could it be that you really think you can defeat me?" Han Yu asked.

"Heh…" Chu Feng did not answer him. Instead, he chuckled lightly. It was a very confident chuckle.

Chu Feng's chuckle answered Han Yu's question. Chu Feng indeed felt that he would be able to defeat Han Yu.

At that moment, the crowd, including even that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder, all revealed gazes of anticipation.

That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder did not feel that Chu Feng was an impulsive person. Since he dared to accept the match, he surely possessed certainty of victory.

Merely, the disparity between a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist and a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist was simply too enormous.

Exactly how was Chu Feng going to face Han Yu?

It was precisely because he did not understand how Chu Feng was hoping to accomplish this that he was anticipating the upcoming match.

Chapter 2771 - Simply A Demonic Woman

"Seeing how confident you are, I am quite curious as to exactly what sort of means you possess to contend against me."

"Come, let me see what abilities you might have. It would be best that you don't bluff. After all, if that were the case, I'll be very disappointed," as Han Yu spoke, he walked over to one side of the chessboard. He was planning to begin the chess match against Chu Feng.

Chu Feng did not say anything in response. Instead, with a smile on his face, Chu Feng walked over to the other side of the chessboard.

After Chu Feng got in position, that chessboard once again started to shine brightly. When the light dissipated, the chessboard had returned to normal again.

Seeing that the two of them were about to start their match, the crowd present all revealed serious expressions.

Even Chu Lingxi, who was sitting on top of the lampstand, became serious. Her beautiful legs that she was swinging about the entire time had stopped swinging.

The reason for that was because the crowd present all wanted to know exactly how Chu Feng was going to contend against Han Yu, a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, as a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist.

"Young masters, please wait a moment," right at the moment when Chu Feng and Han Yu were about to begin their match, Xia Yun'er suddenly spoke.

"Miss Xia, what's wrong?" Han Yu hurriedly asked. His eagerly attentive behavior seemed to be deliberately telling everyone that he, Han Yu, was interested in Xia Yun'er.

That being said, interestingly, this was the same sort of attitude Han Yu had when he spoke with Chu Lingxi.

Because of this, the crowd present realized that Han Yu was not a person focused on a single woman. Rather, he was someone who was extremely interested in all excellent women.

"Young master Han Yu, you are, after all, a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist. If you are to compete with young master Chu Feng in a chess match like this, it would indeed be a bit like bullying. I have two suggestions that could make the match fair."

"Even if you are to win, no one will say that you had an unfair advantage," Xia Yun'er said.

"Miss Xia is truly considerate. Exactly what sort of suggestions do you have? Please go ahead and tell me about them," Han Yu said with an appreciative tone.

"Firstly, if you are to lose, you should present some sort of gesture of goodwill to young master Chu Feng."

"However, if young master Chu Feng is to lose, he would not have to present you with any gesture of goodwill," Xia Yun'er said.

Hearing those words, Han Yu started to frown. This suggestion was truly too unfair.

But this suggestion was actually proposed by Xia Yun'er. Because of this, he felt that Xia Yun'er was deliberately helping Chu Feng, that she was standing on Chu Feng's side.

Thus, Han Yu felt extremely displeased. That said, regardless of how displeased he might be, he did not say anything. Instead, he accepted the suggestion without hesitation, "Miss Xia's suggestion is very reasonable. I accept."

After he finished saying those words, Han Yu looked to Chu Feng. He said, "Merely, I wonder what sort of gesture of goodwill brother Chu Feng might want from me?"

Before Chu Feng could say anything, Xia Yun'er said, "How about, just use that glass ball of yours as your gesture of goodwill?"

"Glass ball?" Upon hearing Xia Yun'er's words, not only was the crowd surprised, but even Chu Feng's gaze changed.

Chu Feng was unable to understand Xia Yun'er. She was the one to incite the chess match between Han Yu and Chu Feng. Because of that, Chu Feng thought that she was trying to cause him harm.

However, looking at it now, it seemed like she was helping him instead. After all, Han Yu's glass ball was golden.

If he was able to obtain Han Yu's glass ball, Chu Feng would be able to obtain more clues after entering the maze formation.

That said, Chu Feng felt that Xia Yun'er was not really doing this to help him. Chu Feng felt that Xia Yun'er was merely toying with him and Han Yu.

The reason for that was because Xia Yun'er had no idea that Chu Feng possessed certainty in being able to defeat Han Yu.

That was why Chu Feng felt that she was toying with them. She was doing all this purely for entertainment purposes.

After all, regardless of who won and who lost, it would only be either Chu Feng or Han Yu who would suffer, and it would be completely unrelated to her.

Thinking of this, Chu Feng grew even more certain that Xia Yun'er was a very dangerous woman.

She was someone who viewed others as playthings.

"Young master Han Yu, what do you think about it?" Seeing that Han Yu did not answer, Xia Yun'er urged him.

In truth, Han Yu did not want to accept the condition. That was why he was hesitating. However, he also did not wish to refuse Xia Yun'er.

Moreover, he did not feel that he would lose. Thus, in the end, he smiled and nodded, "Miss Xia, this Han Yu will accept your suggestions unconditionally."

"Young master Han Yu is truly a frank and straightforward individual. If that's the case, I will put forth my second suggestion," Xia Yun'er spoke with a beaming smile.

Her smile was very sweet and very charming. Many men present were bewitched by her smile.

However, Chu Feng noticed that there was a cunningness and danger hidden within her smile.

Chu Feng started to feel that Han Yu would likely end up suffering by Xia Yun'er's hand.

"Miss Xia, please go ahead and tell me what your suggestion might be. This Han Yu will definitely agree with it," Han Yu said.

"For the sake of fairness, young master Han Yu should also be using Snake Mark Immortal-level spirit power. With that, the match would be much more fair," Xia Yun'er said with a beaming smile.

"What? Only use Snake Mark Immortal-level spirit power?"

Once Xia Yun'er said those words, the crowd immediately burst into a commotion. Everyone was astonished by Xia Yun'er raising such a suggestion.

However, upon thinking about it, they thought that Xia Yun'er's suggestion was actually reasonable and fair. As long as their spirit power was identical, there would be no unfair advantage in the battle.

However, since Xia Yun'er was going to raise this suggestion, why would she add a 'Chu Feng would not have to put forth a gesture of goodwill should he be defeated, whereas Han Yu would have to' suggestion?

With this, it would simply be too obvious that Xia Yun'er wanted to help Chu Feng.

After all, as long as Han Yu accepted this suggestion, not only would Chu Feng gain a massively greater chance at being able to defeat Han Yu, but most importantly, Chu Feng would not suffer any losses even if he was to lose the match.

As long as Han Yu accepted Xia Yun'er's suggestion, it would mean that the match would be unfair. Merely, it would no longer be unfair against Chu Feng, but rather unfair against Han Yu.

Merely, would Han Yu accept this sort of request?

"Miss Xia, what is the relationship between you and Chu Feng? Why must you help him like this?" At that moment, Yuwen Hualong questioned Xia Yun'er.

As Han Yu's friend, he was no longer able to tolerate this. After all, as matters stood, anyone with eyes could tell that Xia Yun'er was helping Chu Feng.

"Young master Chu Feng and I are friends," faced with Yuwen Hualong's question, Xia Yun'er gave the crowd a very shocking answer.

At a time like this, people would generally try their best to deny any relationship. Yet, Xia Yun'er actually said that she and Chu Feng were friends. Wouldn't this be equivalent to her announcing to the crowd that she was helping Chu Feng and harming Han Yu?

"However, I don't think that I am helping young master Chu Feng. These two suggestions that I've put forth are merely to make this match more fair."

"As everyone knows, different world spiritists absolutely possess different levels of understanding toward world spirit techniques."

"Even though I suggested that young master Han Yu only use Snake Mark Immortal-level spirit power, it remains that he is a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist. In terms of utilization of world spirit techniques, he will definitely be superior to young master Chu Feng."

"Thus, I feel that young master Han Yu still has a greater chance of victory. That is why I put forth the suggestion for young master Han Yu to show young master Chu Feng a gesture of goodwill should he lose, whereas young master Chu Feng would not have to do the same if he loses."

"I am not trying to help anyone. I merely wanted this match to be more fair, more brilliant. That's all there is," Xia Yun'er said to the crowd in a very serious manner. She had a very innocent expression in her eyes. It was as if Yuwen Hualong had truly wronged her.

At that moment, the crowd present all started to nod. They felt that what Xia Yun'er said was very reasonable.

Merely, as Han Yu's friends, Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi were still feeling very displeased. They were sending voice transmissions to Han Yu. In fact, they were even openly giving Han Yu meaningful looks to tell him to not accept Xia Yun'er's request.

Han Yu remained silent for a very long time. Because of that, many people felt that Han Yu would not accept Xia Yun'er's second request.

"Young master Han Yu, what I proposed is merely a suggestion. As for what to do, it will be up to you," right at this moment, Xia Yun'er also looked to Han Yu.

"Miss Xia, I feel that you've considered things very thoroughly, and that your suggestion is very good. I, Han Yu, am willing to accept it."

Not only did Han Yu accept Xia Yun'er's suggestion, but he even looked to her with a very appreciative expression. He reacted as if Xia Yun'er's suggestion had truly reached his heart.

Seeing that Han Yu was being completely toyed with by Xia Yun'er, seeing that Han Yu knew that he would suffer losses but still insisted on taking it on, Chu Feng sighed in his heart, "A poisonous beauty. How could this Xia Yun'er be a holy maiden? She is simply a demonic woman."

[1. Xia Yun'er's title, 圣女 could be translated as Holy Daughter, Saintess, Holy Maiden and such. I translated her title to Holy Daughter because there's a Holy Son too. However, there are times such as this where people refer to her as saintess/holy maiden using the same term but with a different connotation.]

Chapter 2772 - The Serious Chu Feng

"Since young master Han Yu has no objections to the suggestions, is young master Chu Feng willing to accept the suggestions too?"

Xia Yun'er turned her gaze to Chu Feng.

When Xia Yun'er said those words, many of the people present felt that she was asking something that everyone knew the answer to already.

Everyone felt that he would most definitely accept the suggestions. After all, those suggestions were so very advantageous toward him.

"Regarding miss Xia's first suggestion, this Chu Feng has no objections."

"The reason for that is because I believe young master Han Yu would not want my cyan glass ball if I am to lose."

"On the other hand, I do fancy young master Han Yu's golden glass ball quite a bit," Chu Feng did not try to hide his desire, and spoke the truth.

The crowd present were not in the slightest bit surprised by Chu Feng's response. They had already anticipated that Chu Feng would accept the suggestion.

Only a fool would refuse such an advantageous thing.

At that moment, Han Yu was cursing Chu Feng for being shameless in his heart.

He felt that Chu Feng was simply too shameless to act so bold and confident as if he were righteous even when taking advantage of someone.

"However, as for the second suggestion, I think it is unsuitable," Chu Feng continued.

"What? Unsuitable?"

Once Chu Feng said those words, the crowd's mouths all dropped to the floor.

"Really? He refused it? He actually refused?"

"Why did he do that? It's a great opportunity that Xia Yun'er obtained, why would Chu Feng refuse it?"

"Could it be that he wants face, and does not want Xia Yun'er to help him?"

"Or could it be that he really does possess absolute confidence in being able to defeat Han Yu, a Dragon Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist, as a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist?"

At that moment, the crowd looked to one another and started to discuss spiritedly among themselves. They all had the same sort of expression on their faces: confusion.

Even Han Yu had a stunned expression on his face. He did not dare to believe what he had just heard.

Chu Feng actually refused such a great opportunity?

Could it be that there was something wrong with Chu Feng's head?

Li Xiang stepped forth and said, "Big brother Chu Feng, what's unsuitable about it? I find it very suitable,"

As Li Xiang wanted Chu Feng to win, he did not wish for Chu Feng to renounce such an opportunity.

"By fair, both parties should utilize their full strength. Otherwise, it would be meaningless."

"Since I accepted this match, I cannot use my weakness to request for someone stronger than myself to weaken their own strength," Chu Feng said.

"Good, well spoken," at that moment, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was unable to contain himself, and spoke to praise Chu Feng.

At that moment, many of the people present began to raise their thumbs toward Chu Feng in their hearts.

They were all feeling admiration toward Chu Feng's spirit.

However, there was also a small portion of people that felt that Chu Feng was being pretentious. Xia Yun'er had strived for an opportunity for him, yet he refused to use it. With that, he would only bring disgrace upon himself.

This was what the great majority of the Chu Heavenly Clan's younger generations were thinking about Chu Feng.

"Miss Xia, I feel that there is nothing wrong with your suggestion. However, it is not that I am not willing to do as you suggested. Rather, it is brother Chu Feng who is unwilling," Han Yu said.

Han Yu actually did not wish to do as Xia Yun'er suggested from the bottom of his heart. And now, an opportunity had presented itself before him. Naturally, he would push all the blame onto Chu Feng.

Xia Yun'er smiled lightly. She said, "I merely put forth the two suggestions so that this chess match would be more fair. However, since young master Chu Feng feels that it would only be fair should the two of you both utilize your full strengths, we should respect young master Chu Feng's decision."

"Brother Chu Feng, since this is the case, we can start now, yes?" Han Yu had a joyous expression on his face. He was rejoicing from the bottom of his heart.

Han Yu felt that as long as he could unleash his full strength, Chu Feng would undoubtedly be defeated.

Most importantly, he had agreed to Xia Yun'er's request to use only Snake Mark Immortal-level spirit power.

However, the request was refused by Chu Feng. Thus, even if he was to win, no one would say that he had had an unfair advantage in the match.

They would only say that Chu Feng had brought disgrace upon himself.

"We can begin," Chu Feng said.

"In that case, allow me to experience brother Chu Feng's chess skills."

"Buzz~~~"

After saying those words, Han Yu's Dragon Mark Immortal-level spirit power started to emerge from his body. Like a tide, it began to surge into the chess pieces.

At the same time, Chu Feng also unleashed his spirit power and instilled it into his chess pieces.

This time around, Chu Feng's spirit power was much more powerful than when he was confronting Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi.

At that moment, Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi felt very displeased.

At that moment, they finally realized why they were defeated by Chu Feng earlier. It turned out that Chu Feng was holding back and deliberately hid his strength.

Chu Feng's spirit power was actually stronger than their own. It was no wonder they would lose to him.

'Chu Feng, even if you are to go all out, you will still be defeated. The disgrace and humiliation you've bestowed us will be completely repaid by Han Yu,' Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi thought in their hearts.

It was actually not only the two of them that felt that way. Practically everyone present thought Chu Feng couldn't win.

Even though Chu Feng had unleashed his full strength now, it remained that he was only a Snake Mark Immortal-cloak World Spiritist. Compared to Han Yu's Dragon Mark Immortal spirit power, his was simply too inferior.

Actually, as the chess board only possessed a limited space, the quantity of spirit power unleashed by Chu Feng and Han Yu was practically the same. The two of them had practically unleashed the full potential the chess board could allow.

However, in terms of grandeur, the disparity between them was enormous.

If Chu Feng's spirit power was akin to a surging river with vast and mighty power, then Han Yu's spirit power would be an ocean with surging waves that reached the sky itself.

"Kill~~~"

Suddenly, a shout was heard from the chess board.

It was Han Yu's chess pieces. Not only did his chess pieces seem to be vividly alive, but they were actually capable of speaking. How could they be considered to be chess pieces? They were simply real living beings.

As the deafening shouting of 'kill' continued, Han Yu's chess pieces started to orderly and gradually press on toward Chu Feng's chess pieces.

That's right, he did not rush his chess pieces toward Chu Feng's chess pieces. Instead, he was slowly moving them toward Chu Feng's chess pieces.

He was planning to use his own might to scare Chu Feng and make him crumble in fear. He wanted to utterly defeat Chu Feng.

In fact, he had indeed managed to accomplish that.

His chess piece army was indeed very powerful. This was not his own favorable impression toward his chess pieces. Instead, this was the feeling that everyone present felt.

Han Yu's chess pieces army was simply too powerful in terms of both momentum and strength.

If one were to compare Han Yu's chess piece army with Chu Feng's, then it would be akin to comparing a group of robust adults to a group of two-year-old children.

With how enormous of a difference in strength there was between the two parties and how the two parties both possessed identical numbers, this was simply a battle with no suspense.

However, at the moment when the crowd felt that Chu Feng must be scared witless already, when they wanted to see Chu Feng panic in fear and want to give up on the chess match, they were all stunned when they turned to look at Chu Feng.

They were surprised to discover that Chu Feng not only did not have any traces of panic on his face, but his gaze was instead burning like a torch while being completely fixed on the chessboard. He was like a marshal overseeing the changes on the battlefield.

At the same time, his expression was very serious. It was as if he was completely absorbed in the chessboard and unable to hear what the others said.

This meant one thing: Chu Feng was extremely serious.

This seriousness was something that Chu Feng did not possess when he was contending against Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong.

Apart from the seriousness on Chu Feng's face, the crowd also noticed that Chu Feng continued to have a confident expression.

Even after things had reached this state, Chu Feng still felt that he would be able to win.

The crowd members were all frightened by Chu Feng's confidence.

"How could Chu Feng remain this confident even with such a vast disparity in strength? Could it be that he really possesses the means to handle Han Yu?"

Seeing Chu Feng's expression, the crowd suddenly started to feel a bit of confidence in Chu Feng. They felt that Chu Feng might really possess the means to confront Han Yu.

That said, the crowd still did not know how Chu Feng would take on Han Yu's chess piece army.

Chapter 2773 - The Dao Of Chess

Before the crowd's focus, Chu Feng began to control his chess piece army.

Unlike the matches against Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi, Chu Feng did not directly command his chess piece army to confront Han Yu's chess piece army.

Instead, Chu Feng's chess pieces actually started to set up a formation, a defensive formation. Chu Feng had chosen to be passive and defend.

"Humph."

Seeing this, Han Yu snorted. He thought to himself, 'There are some people that you are simply unable to defend against. For example, me.'

Thinking that, Han Yu stopped having his chess piece army slowly proceed onward. Instead, he accelerated the speed of his army.

In the blink of an eye, Han Yu's chess piece army arrived before Chu Feng's chess piece army and collided with it.

At that moment, the gazes of the crowd all turned especially bright.

The crowd were all focused on the chessboard. They did not want to miss the slightest bit of that wonderful sight.

Han Yu did not disappoint the crowd. His chess piece army was simply invincible. Chu Feng's chess pieces started to die by Han Yu's chess pieces repeatedly.

In the blink of an eye, Han Yu's chess pieces army had penetrated Chu Feng's chess piece army.

However, soon, the crowd came to find out that as Han Yu's chess piece army penetrated further into Chu Feng's chess piece army, they actually started dying too.

At that moment, astonishment filled the eyes of everyone present.

How could Han Yu's extremely powerful chess pieces be killed by Chu Feng's chess pieces? This was simply unreasonable.

It was one thing for Han Yu's chess pieces to die when many of Chu Feng's chess pieces surrounded a single one of Han Yu's chess pieces to kill it. However, even one against one, Han Yu's chess pieces were still dying to Chu Feng's chess pieces.

Soon, the crowd discovered that while the chess pieces might be fighting one on one, Chu Feng's chess pieces were different from Han Yu's chess pieces.

After observing, the crowd soon discovered that both Chu Feng and Han Yu possessed different sorts of chess pieces.

There were multiple different types of chess pieces. Not only did the chess pieces have different appearances, but it seemed that their usage and battle powers were different too.

Gradually, the crowd realized which sort of chess pieces were stronger and which sort of chess pieces were weaker.

As for the strongest sort of chess pieces, they were the ones that Chu Feng used to kill Han Yu's chess pieces one on one.

Han Yu also possessed those sorts of chess pieces with great individual strength.

Unfortunately, Han Yu's chess pieces with great individual strength were all surrounded and killed by Chu Feng's seemingly weakest chess pieces.

Even though those chess pieces were very powerful, they were unable to match the cumulative power of Chu Feng's weakest chess pieces.

Rather than saying that Chu Feng's chess pieces won through numbers, it would be more accurate to say that the chess pieces possessed weaknesses and strengths toward different types of chess pieces.

That's right, they possessed the property of curbing one another. The crowd had already realized all this.

Han Yu had also realized this. However, it was already too late.

By the time Han Yu realized that those chess pieces were capable of curbing one another, it was already too late.

The reason for that was because Han Yu had already entered a disadvantaged state, he had already been forced into desperate straits by Chu Feng.

Even though his chess pieces possessed stronger overall strength compared to Chu Feng's chess pieces at the start of the match, his most crucial chess pieces had all been killed by Chu Feng's chess pieces already.

Thus, his overall strength was much inferior to Chu Feng's at this moment.

The reason for that was because Chu Feng had discovered the secret to the chess pieces.

Furthermore, he had set up a formation that acted as a perfect trap for Han Yu to fall into.

The current Han Yu was akin to a turtle in a jar. He was completely trapped by Chu Feng.

"I refuse to believe that I'll lose!"

Han Yu was feeling extremely unreconciled. He once again unleashed a boundless amount of spirit power. Wave upon wave of his spirit power began to flow into his remaining chess pieces in an unending stream.

Unfortunately, even with this seemingly unstoppable power infusing the chess pieces, he was unable to change the inevitable.

At that moment, Han Yu was no longer able to turn that losing battle around. In the end, all of his chess pieces were killed by Chu Feng's chess pieces.

When Han Yu's chess pieces were all killed by Chu Feng's chess pieces, Chu Feng still had twelve chess pieces remaining.

It was a triumph for Chu Feng. It was a much more marvelous victory compared to his matches against Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi.

At that moment, the crowd was completely stunned. Some among them were even rubbing their eyes nonstop.

They did not dare to believe the scene before them. They did not dare to believe that Chu Feng had actually achieved an overwhelming victory against Han Yu.

"Chu Feng, you're shameless!!!"

Suddenly, a shout even more ear-piercing than thunder brought the crowd back from their stunned state with shock.

It was Han Yu. At that moment, Han Yu had a furious look on his face and was pointing at Chu Feng with his finger.

Han Yu no longer possessed his previous calmness. At that moment, he resembled a person on the verge of losing all rationality.

"Shameless? How am I, Chu Feng, shameless?" Chu Feng asked in a very puzzled manner.

"It was impossible for you to defeat me. Yet, you've defeated me. You dare to say that you're still not shameless?! Tell me, exactly what sort of shameless means did you use?!" Han Yu asked.

"Haha…" Chu Feng laughed. Then, he said, "A game of chess has always been a game of intelligence, resourcefulness and the utilization of one's chess pieces."

"However, what did you do? You merely infused the chess pieces with your formidable spirit power. After that, you urged them to attack my chess pieces without the slightest bit of strategy."

"Your way of playing chess is simply akin to a novice that knows literally nothing trying to fight against someone who knows how to play chess. Let me ask, how could you possibly win?" Chu Feng said.

"This chessboard compares one's spirit power. There's no such thing as the utilization of one's chess pieces," Han Yu said.

"Haha…" Chu Feng laughed again. He did not try to explain.

"What are you laughing about? Are you tacitly agreeing?" Han Yu asked.

"Young master Han Yu, you are wrong," right at that moment, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Young master Han Yu, you have misunderstood the essence of the chessboard."

"If it were merely used to compete with one's spirit power, one could very well just compete using world spirit techniques. There would simply be no use for this chessboard."

"While it is undeniable that the strength of one's spirit power will affect the strength of one's chess pieces, it is also because of that that you were deceived by the chessboard. You felt that since your spirit power was stronger, you would be able to defeat young master Chu Feng."

"However, you've forgotten the most important aspect of playing chess: one's skill. It is not a competition of spirit power."

"However, you do not have to feel disappointed. After all, it is not only you who was deceived by the chessboard. I believe many others present were deceived by it," after the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said those words, he turned his gaze to the crowd.

Facing the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder's gaze, the crowd, with the exception of a few extremely confident individuals, all nodded their heads slightly to indicate that they too were deceived by the chessboard.

Indeed, practically everyone had thought that what the chessboard competed in would be one's world spirit techniques. Else, they wouldn't have been that certain that Chu Feng would be undoubtedly defeated.

However, from the confrontation between Chu Feng and Han Yu, the crowd realized that the chess pieces actually possessed different strengths. It turned out that one's utilization of the chess pieces was extremely important in a game of chess.

They were all deceived. Because of that, they had forgotten the dao of chess.

Chapter 2774 - Allowed To Ascend The Mountain

"Actually, even this old man was deceived. I believe that there is only a single person here that wasn't deceived. As for that person, it would be little friend Chu Feng."

After saying those words, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder looked to Chu Feng. With an admiring tone, he said, "Little friend Chu Feng, you are truly amazing. It is no wonder you were so confident."

After he finished saying those words, the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder looked to Han Yu. He said, "Little friend Han Yu, although you've lost this match of chess, you have not lost unjustly."

"Young master Chu Feng, you have truly broadened my knowledge and experience today," Xia Yun'er said to Chu Feng with a smile on her face.

After that, many people began to openly praise Chu Feng.

Faced with the crowd that was overwhelmingly supporting Chu Feng, Han Yu's expression turned ashen and extremely ugly.

"Han Yu, you have indeed lost. You should fulfill your promise now."

Right at that moment, a pleasant sounding voice sounded from the lampstand.

It was Chu Lingxi. The high and above Chu Heavenly Clan's miss Chu Lingxi actually spoke for Chu Feng of her own accord.

After Chu Lingxi spoke, regardless of how unwilling Han Yu was, he did not dare to not acknowledge his loss.

In fact, Han Yu even forced out a smile on his face. He said to Chu Lingxi, "Please rest assured Lady Lingxi. I, Han Yu, am always a person to accept my losses. Since I have lost, I will naturally honor my promise."

After he finished saying those words, Han Yu took out his golden glass ball and tossed it toward Chu Feng.

After receiving the glass ball, Chu Feng started to brim with smiles. He said, "Brother Han Yu, thanks."

While on the surface Chu Feng was expressing his thanks, he was actually ridiculing Han Yu.

"Heh…" Han Yu sneered and did not answer Chu Feng.

The reason for that was because he had managed to sense the ridicule within Chu Feng's words.

"Brother Han Yu, if you don't mind, accept this glass ball of mine. Although it is only cyan in color, it will still be able to provide you with some clues," Chu Feng took out his cyan glass ball.

"Humph, are you pitying me? My apologies, but I, Han Yu, do not need it," Han Yu said.

"If that's the case, I will give this glass ball to someone else then," after he finished saying those words, Chu Feng tossed his glass ball out in a seemingly random direction.

Once the glass ball was tossed out, many people immediately soared into the sky to fight over it.

Even though it was only a cyan glass ball, it was better than a colorless glass ball.

In the end, that glass ball was obtained by a disciple from the Immortal Armament Villa.

Holding Chu Feng's cyan glass ball in hand, that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple said to Chu Feng with a grateful expression, "Brother Chu Feng, thanks."

The reason why he thanked Chu Feng was because he knew that it was not because of his own capabilities that he obtained the glass ball.

Instead, it was thanks to the direction that Chu Feng tossed the glass ball in. That direction had been favorable to him.

After obtaining Chu Feng's cyan glass ball, that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple crushed his own transparent glass ball.

The reason why he did that was because he knew very well that his transparent glass ball was no longer useful.

"Buzz~~~"

"Buzz~~~"

"Buzz~~~"

"Buzz~~~"

"Buzz~~~"

Right at that moment, many rays of light suddenly emerged in the center of the palace hall.

Those pillars of light were emerging from beneath the palace hall, and connected to the ceiling of the palace hall.

The pillars continued to appear. In the end, there were over a hundred such pillars before they finally stopped appearing.

"It's opened. The path to climb the mountain is now open."

"Little friends, with your glass balls, you will be able to enter the path to climb the mountain."

"However, it will not be that easy for one to enter Buried Spirit Lake this time. It will depend on your own individual perception as to whether or not you will be able to successfully enter Buried Spirit Lake. Your glass balls will be able to provide you with clues," an Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

Hearing those words, many of the people present immediately started to proceed toward the pillars of light. They all wanted to enter the path to climb the mountain sooner. They all wanted to reach Buried Spirit Lake sooner.

As for Han Yu, he was among these people.

Han Yu was very powerful. Furthermore, his speed was much faster than the others. Thus, he became the first person to reach the pillars.

"Clank~~~"

However, when Han Yu came in contact with the pillar, he reacted as if he'd collided with an iron plate.

Not only was a loud sound of metal colliding with metal heard, but he was also knocked dizzy by the collision.

Seeing this scene, the others that had rushed toward the pillars all thought that there was something wrong with them. Thus, they all stopped before the pillars.

As for Han Yu, he grew furious. He pointed to that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder and shouted angrily, "What is the meaning of this?! Are you toying with us?!"

"How has this old man toyed with you?" The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder spoke with a confused expression.

"It is simply impossible to pass through this beam of light. If this isn't toying with people, what is it?" Han Yu asked.

"Impossible to pass through?" The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder laughed. Then, he swept his sleeve and pushed a person standing very close to a light pillar toward that light pillar.

"Buzz~~~"

When that individual came in contact with the light pillar, the glass ball in his hand immediately let out a dazzling white light.

That light covered that person completely. After that light disappeared, that person was no longer to be seen.

"Is this what you mean by impossible to pass through?" That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder asked.

"I'm unable to pass through it because I do not have a glass ball?" Han Yu asked.

"Clever," that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

Hearing those words, Han Yu's expression changed. The reason for that was because he did not have a glass ball at that moment as he had given his glass ball to Chu Feng.

However, Han Yu's expression only turned ugly for a split second. Immediately afterward, his expression returned to normal.

His palm streaked across his Cosmos Sack. Then, a purple gem appeared in his hand.

Seeing the gem, a disciple from the Immortal Armament Villa said, "Purple-light Jade, it's a treasure for forging weapons."

"I am willing to use this gem to exchange for a glass ball. It does not have to have any color. A transparent glass ball will do. Is there anyone willing to exchange with me?" Han Yu asked.

"Me…"

"I'm willing."

"I'm willing."

"Young master Han Yu, I am willing."

Once Han Yu said those words, over half of the people present expressed their desire to exchange with Han Yu.

The reason for that was because they were all world spiritists. Thus, they knew very well how precious that gem was.

Seeing that there were this many people willing to exchange with him, Han Yu looked to that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder. There was a provocative smile on Han Yu's face.

It was as if he was trying to tell that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder, 'Did you think that I would not be able to enter Buried Spirit Lake because I didn't have a glass ball?'

'I, Han Yu, possess countless means to enter Buried Spirit Lake.'

Seeing Han Yu's provocative expression, the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief smiled lightly. He said, "Everyone, you are not allowed to make business transactions using your glass balls. If anyone dares to do so of their own accord, they will be driven out from the Spirit Formation Immortal Domain."

"What? We cannot use them in business transactions?"

Hearing those words, the people that had raised their hands to express their desire to exchange their glass balls with Han Yu immediately retrieved them.

One by one, they all revealed expressions of panic on their faces.

Chapter 2775 - Handling Chu Feng

In terms of having an ugly expression on their face, the one with the ugliest expression would be none other than Han Yu.

"What is the meaning of this? Are you trying to deliberately make things difficult for me?" An enormous amount of resentment emerged in his eyes. Even his voice had grown much louder.

"What do you mean by that?" The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder asked.

"Why didn't you mention this rule when I lost my glass ball to Chu Feng earlier?" Han Yu asked.

"One can present the glass ball to another as a gambling bet. However, one cannot use it as currency in a transaction," that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"There's actually such a rule? Who are you trying to deceive?" Han Yu spoke in a very unaccepting manner.

"Young master Han Yu, these are the rules. This old man is merely doing things according to the rules. Thus, I hope that young master Han Yu will follow the rules too, and not make things difficult for this old man," that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

At that moment, the crowd all looked at one another. After all, even fools could tell that the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was deliberately making things difficult for Han Yu.

At that moment, many people began to worry for Han Yu. With how that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was acting against him, they feared that he would likely not be able to enter Buried Spirit Lake.

"Very well, I will act according to the rules then," Han Yu nodded his head while gnashing his teeth furiously. Then, he walked over to the chessboard again. He said, "Is there anyone that is willing to play a round of chess with this Han Yu? If you are to lose, you can use your glass ball as the gambling stake."

After he finished saying those words, he added, "I, Han Yu, will remember this kindness."

Seeing Han Yu's reaction, many people started to praise him in their hearts. They felt that he was truly intelligent.

"Me! Brother Han Yu, I am willing to gamble with you."

At that moment there were many people present that stepped toward the chessboard. They were actually starting to fight over who got to gamble with Han Yu.

That being said, even though they were calling it a gamble, it was clearly an act to present their glass ball to Han Yu free of charge.

This was a normal reaction. After all, with Han Yu's reputation in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, there were a lot of people who longed to befriend him.

And now, the opportunity to do so had actually emerged before them. Naturally, the crowd would not want to miss that opportunity.

"The glass balls are not allowed to be used as gambling stakes. If you do not wish to enter the mountain, you can leave voluntarily. However, you must leave your glass ball behind," Right at that moment, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder spoke again.

The people that were proceeding toward the chessboard immediately stopped.

They were at a complete loss as to what to do.

"There are no grievances or hatred between you and I, why must you deliberately make things difficult for me like this?" Han Yu turned to ask that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder.

"That's right, you are simply conducting an act of intolerable bullying," Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi added.

It was not only the three of them that felt that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was deliberately making things difficult for Han Yu. A great majority of the people all felt that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was deliberately making things difficult for Han Yu. After all, this was simply too obvious.

Earlier, he had said that the glass balls could be used as gambling stakes. Yet now, he said that they were not allowed to be used as gambling stakes. He was clearly targeting Han Yu.

"This old man does not understand how I am making things difficult for you. This old man has only been following the rules," that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder had an innocent expression on his face. He was acting as if he truly did not know what he had done wrong.

"You said earlier that the glass balls could be used as gambling stakes. Why is it that they cannot be used as gambling stakes now?' Han Yu asked.

"Oh, so that's the question. I can answer your question."

"When you were competing with little friend Chu Feng earlier, betting one's glass ball was indeed allowed."

"However, it is not allowed now," that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"You!!!" At that moment, Han Yu was so furious that he was on the verge of vomiting blood.

This was simply too much of a deliberate ruse of making things difficult for someone. Furthermore, that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was deliberately making things difficult for him so obviously. He was simply against Han Yu.

Even if someone was to be deliberately making things difficult for another, there would never be one to do it this openly and obviously.

"I demand to see the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief, I demand to see your clan chief!"

"This is simply too excessive. You are simply too excessive!

"I demand to see your clan chief!"

"Who the hell do you think I, Han Yu, am?!"

"Did you really think that I, Han Yu, am someone who's easily bullied and humiliated?!"

"I demand to see your Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief! You all must provide me with an explanation!"

Han Yu exploded. He started to let out loud and ear-piercing shouts.

He was truly and utterly enraged by that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder.

He must definitely get justice for himself.

"Little friend, do you need something?"

Han Yu had only shouted a couple times before an enormous figure appeared in the palace hall.

That person was none other than the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief.

After that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief appeared, Han Yu's furious expression finally eased.

"Lord Clan Chief, this elder of yours, for some unknown reason, is deliberately making things difficult for me. I hope that Lord Clan Chief is able to uphold justice for this junior," Han Yu greeted the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief and then reported his grievances.

"Oh? There's such a thing?" The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief took a glance at that elder. Then, he said to Han Yu, "How has he been making things difficult for you?"

At that moment, joy emerged in Han Yu's eyes. Then, he began to narrate in full detail what had happened to the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief.

After Han Yu finished reporting the matter, many of the people present felt that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder was going to suffer.

The reason for that was because the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan had always been a very strict race. They had to follow the rules established by the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief absolutely. If someone dared to go against it, they would definitely be punished. In more serious cases, they would even be executed on the spot.

"Oh? So that's what you're concerned about. This is an order that I had transmitted to him," the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief spoke indifferently.

"It's actually your order?" Han Yu's expression changed greatly.

"Indeed, it is my order," the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief said.

At that moment, the crowd all came to a realization. It turned out that it was not the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder who wanted to deliberately make things difficult for Han Yu. Instead, it was the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief himself.

But, why was he doing this? Exactly what did Han Yu do to offend the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief to make him target him so obviously?

At that moment, the crowd began to guess nonstop. As for Han Yu, he stood there speechlessly for a very long time.

"Puuu~~~"

Suddenly, Han Yu opened his mouth, and a large mouthful of blood sprayed out. Following that, he took several steps back and nearly fell to the ground.

Han Yu was actually enraged to a state of vomiting blood. Not only that, but his complexion had turned paper pale. He was simply akin to a dying man. It was a very shocking appearance.

"Very well. I, Han Yu, will remember what has happened here today."

Han Yu coldly left those words and wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth and on his clothes. Then, he did not bother to utter another word to the Ancient Era's Serpent Clans' clansmen and turned his gaze to Chu Feng.

"Chu Feng, oh Chu Feng, I have truly underestimated you. Never would I have expected that you were this cunning, that you actually possessed the backing of the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan."

"Haha, I was a fool to actually believe you when you said that you were from the Lower Realms earlier."

After Han Yu finished saying those words, he proceeded toward the direction that they had arrived from. He was planning to leave.

The reason for that was because it was not only that Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder who was making things difficult for him. Instead, it was the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief. At that moment, he was powerless to do anything. He must endure the humiliation regardless of whether or not he wanted to. Even though Han Yu was so furious that he felt his heart, liver, spleen and lungs were all about to explode, he could only endure this anger.

After all, this was the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's territory.

Seeing that Han Yu was planning to leave, the people from the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan did not attempt to stop him.

It was actually Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi that rushed toward Han Yu. The two of them wanted to leave with him.

"Why are the two of you following me?" Han Yu asked through a voice transmission.

"This Ancient Era's Serpent Clan is simply bullying you intolerably. We will leave with you," Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi said.

"While I cannot enter, the two of you are still able to enter. As long as you enter, you will have the opportunity to take care of Chu Feng. Are the two of you planning to miss out on this opportunity?" Han Yu asked through another voice transmission.

Hearing those words, Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi's expressions both changed.

They suddenly recalled that the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan would not concern themselves with the battles of others in the Spirit Formation Immortal Domain.

Every year, there would be conflicts within the Spirit Formation Immortal Domain. In fact, there were people who lost their lives in there.

After entering the maze formation, if they were to encounter Chu Feng, it would truly be a great opportunity to take care of him.

"But, the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan will most definitely be monitoring the maze formation. If they are truly determined to protect Chu Feng, the two of us will be powerless to do anything," Yuwen Hualong said though voice transmission.

"That is indeed possible. However, even with that possibility, the two of you must still try. This is still a rare opportunity," Han Yu said.

Chapter 2776 - Maze Formation

"Very well. We'll do as you say and return."

Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi nodded. Then, the two of them walked back, and Han Yu left the palace hall by himself.

At that moment, the gazes with which the people present in the palace hall looked to Chu Feng had all changed.

They all felt that Chu Feng most definitely possessed an extraordinary relationship with the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan. Otherwise, the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan would not have deliberately made things difficult for Han Yu like the way they did.

As for Chu Feng, he knew very well that he did not have any relationship with the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan. Thus, Chu Feng also did not understand why the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief was deliberately making things difficult for Han Yu.

After this, more and more people began to enter the pillars of light with their glass ball in hand.

As for Chu Feng, he called Li Xiang and his two buddies over to him.

Chu Feng felt that since there were so many light pillars, they should indicate different entrances.

In other words, entering the maze formation through different light pillars would make one emerge in different locations inside the maze. Otherwise, there was simply no need to have so many beams.

Chu Feng was afraid that if Yuwen Hualong and Yuwen Tingyi were to encounter Li Xiang and his two buddies in the maze formation, they would attack them.

Thus, he had Li Xiang and his two buddies journey together with him. With this, Chu Feng would be able to protect them.

Even if he were to encounter Yuwen Hualong and was unable to win, Chu Feng would still be able to escape with Li Xiang and his two buddies.

However, if Li Xiang and his two buddies were to not journey together with him, if any one of them were to encounter Yuwen Hualong or Yuwen Tingyi, they would definitely suffer enormously.

"Young master Chu Feng, let's journey together."

Right at the moment when Chu Feng, Li Xiang and his two buddies were planning to enter the same light pillar, Xia Yun'er appeared beside Chu Feng.

However, Chu Feng reacted as if he did not hear Xia Yun'er, and directly entered the light pillar.

Chu Feng did not wish to journey together with Xia Yun'er. He felt that she was too dangerous, and that it would be better to keep his distance from her.

At that moment, Li Xiang and his two buddies did not know what Chu Feng was thinking. The three of them all stood there in a stunned manner. After they looked to one another, they all revealed bewildered expressions on their faces.

They felt that since Xia Yun'er's call was heard by even them, Chu Feng most definitely heard it too.

As such, they were unable to understand why Chu Feng did not respond to her.

In the end, the three of them could only reach a single conclusion. That is, Chu Feng was too headstrong.

Chu Feng actually treated even a great beauty like Xia Yun'er like this. If this wasn't being headstrong, what would it be?

However, the three of them did not try to say anything to Xia Yun'er either. They merely smiled at Xia Yun'er respectfully and then followed after Chu Feng and entered the pillar of light.

As for Xia Yun'er, she did not reveal an ugly expression just because she was ignored by Chu Feng.

On the contrary, a brilliant smile emerged on her exceptionally charming face.

Following that, her body moved, and she too leapt into the light pillar that Chu Feng, Li Xiang and the others had entered.

It seemed that she was determined to journey together with Chu Feng, that she was determined to not let him get away.

One thing worthy of mentioning was that those who held transparent glass balls would emit a white light when they entered the light pillars.

As for those with cyan glass balls, they would emit cyan light. Finally, the golden glass balls emitted golden light.

As different-colored light continued to emerge from the pillars in the palace hall, Chu Feng entered the so-called maze formation.

"This is the maze formation?"

Chu Feng was quite surprised. This maze formation was actually a vast mountain. This mountain was covered densely with peculiar rocks, enormous trees and twisting vines. It did not appear to be anything special. Even the path up the mountain was very clear and visible.

Chu Feng started to doubt if he had arrived at the wrong place.

Or could it be that the golden glass ball possessed the capability of cutting through the maze formation?

"Something's amiss."

Right at that moment, Chu Feng suddenly realized that two pieces of information had appeared in his mind.

One was a word, whereas the other a series of numbers.

The word was 'purple.'

As for the series of numbers, it was 'six, seven, four, nine, five, three.'

Chu Feng looked to his hand and discovered that his glass ball had disappeared.

"The hell, these couldn't possibly be the so-called clues, right?"

Chu Feng felt speechless. Judging by the situation right now, the information that appeared in his head out of thin air must be the clues.

Wasn't the golden glass ball said to provide one with more clues? What the hell could a word and a series of numbers possibly amount to?

Most importantly, as Chu Feng stood here, he surveyed his surroundings, did not discover any pillars of light or teleportation formations.

"Crap," Chu Feng said.

"What's wrong?" Her Lady Queen asked.

"I've misjudged this place. Even if people are to enter the same light pillar, they will not be teleported to the same location. I have lost Li Xiang and the others," Chu Feng said.

"Could it be that Xia Yun'er refused to allow Li Xiang and the others to follow after you?" Her Lady Queen guessed.

"No, that's impossible. Even if they did not follow after, there must have been others who followed after me," Chu Feng said.

"That's true. No matter what, since you've entered this place, you must quickly find Buried Spirit Lake. Otherwise, you will miss the time of the eruption and would have come here in vain," Her Lady Queen said.

"Rest assured Eggy. I know what I need to do. However, I also do not wish to abandon them like this. After all, this place is truly too dangerous. Allow me to wait a while longer," Chu Feng said.

"Okay then."

After Chu Feng made his decision, Her Lady Queen did not attempt to urge him.

Right at the moment when Chu Feng was waiting, a voice suddenly emerged from the sky.

"Through our observations, we have determined that Buried Spirit Lake will erupt in a day's time. The eruption will persist for an entire day."

"Thus, little friends that have entered the maze formation, you all will only have two days."

"If you are unable to reach Buried Spirit Lake in two days' time, you will miss the eruption that only occurs once every ten years. I wish all little friends good luck."

This was the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief's voice.

"Chu Feng, there's only a single day's worth of time. You must hurry," Her Lady Queen urged Chu Feng.

After hearing the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief's announcement, it was verified that the maze formation actually did exist. Thus, it would not be as easy to reach Buried Spirit Lake as Chu Feng had imagined it to be.

"Mn, I'll set off right now."

As Chu Feng had already waited some time and did not see Li Xiang and his two buddies or anyone else appearing, he had determined that Li Xiang and his two buddies would not appear.

Rather than wasting any more time waiting here, it was better that he search for the path to ascend the mountain.

Originally, Chu Feng followed the mountain path up the mountain.

However, after walking for a short while, Chu Feng stopped.

He was surprised to discover that the surrounding scenery was too familiar. Wasn't this the same place that he had walked past previously?

That's right, Chu Feng had walked past this path before. If he were to continue on this path, he would forever be unable to reach Buried Spirit Lake. He would only continue to pass the place where he had already passed.

"Crap, this maze formation is much more annoying than I had anticipated."

Chu Feng started to frown. The reason for that was because, regardless of what sort of observation method he used, including even his Heaven's Eyes, they were all incapable of detecting anything unusual in the path or the surroundings. In fact, they were unable to discover any traces of alteration from a spirit formation.

However, Chu Feng had attempted to walk the path several times. Even if he were to follow up the path directly, he would only return to his starting point.

Chapter 2777 - Confusion Method

"Chu Feng, do not continue to follow the path," Her Lady Queen called for Chu Feng's attention.

"That's what I'm thinking of too."

Chu Feng nodded, and then no longer continued to follow the open path to ascend the mountain. Instead, he entered the forest.

Both Chu Feng and Her Lady Queen felt that the open path was a method to confuse others. It was only because the person who set up the maze formation was too powerful that Chu Feng was unable to see through things

Sure enough, Chu Feng and Her Lady Queen had both guessed correctly.

After not following the mountain path and entering the forest, Chu Feng no longer continued to go around in circles in the same place. As he journeyed, foreign locations appeared around him.

Merely, to walk aimlessly like this would not work either. After all, his goal was to ascend to the mountaintop and enter Buried Spirit Lake.

In that sort of situation, Chu Feng started to panic slightly. After all, much less being able to attain his goal of entering Buried Spirit Lake, it was an issue for Chu Feng to even find out where Buried Spirit Lake was.

It would instead be strange if Chu Feng did not panic at a time like this. After all, he did not want his journey to have been in vain.

"Eggy, do you see that tree?"

Right at the moment when Chu Feng was at his wits' end, a large tree suddenly appeared before him.

The appearance of the large tree gave Chu Feng a feeling of discovering light in the darkness.

The reason for that was because that tree stood out from the masses. What stood out about it was not that its outward appearance was different from the other trees in the area.

On the contrary, in terms of its outward appearance and variety, it should be the same as the great majority of trees present in the forest.

The difference regarding that tree was that it was emitting a faint purple radiance. Although it was very faint, it remained a purple radiance.

At that moment, Chu Feng started to recall the clues in his head. One of the clues was the word 'purple.'

"Chu Feng, do not approach it. Carefully inspect it first. If this tree is truly capable of guiding you to Buried Spirit Lake, there is most definitely something even more extraordinary about it. It is most definitely not as simple as it seems," Her Lady Queen got Chu Feng's attention in a serious manner.

On their journey there, Her Lady Queen and Chu Feng could be said to have experienced the methods of the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan.

The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan was very crafty. It was impossible for them to allow Chu Feng to obtain the clues necessary to climb the mountain to reach Buried Spirit Lake so easily.

"Mn," Chu Feng did not dare to be careless. At that moment He activated his Heaven's Eyes to inspect the tree.

However, Chu Feng was unable to discover anything unusual. In fact, he was simply unable to see through the tree. Thus, he walked directly toward the purple tree.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz~~~"

Right after Chu Feng approached the three, a group of flying insects emerged from within the large purple tree.

Those flying insects were black, and their appearance was similar to that of beetles, while their size was similar to that of bees. Flying out from the purple tree, they numbered at least several hundred.

Most importantly, Chu Feng felt a very powerful threatening sensation from that group of flying insects. Those flying insects possessed very powerful offensive capabilities.

"Capture!"

Although those flying insects were rushing toward Chu Feng to attack him, Chu Feng did not kill them immediately. Insead, he set up a sealing formation and sealed those flying insects away within it.

After sealing away the flying insects, Chu Feng walked over to the large tree and used special methods to carefully cut it open. He wanted to search for the mystery of the purple tree.

After Chu Feng opened the purple tree, he only saw a purple gem. Apart from that, there was nothing else extraordinary in the tree.

The purple gem was roughly only the size of a hen's egg. It was very well-structured. It was not a product of nature. Instead, it was something formed with a spirit formation.

After Chu Feng retrieved the gem from the purple tree, the purple tree returned to the appearance of an ordinary tree. It no longer emitted a faint purple radiance.

From this, it could be determined that it was actually the purple gem that was emitting the faint purple radiance from inside the tree.

"Could it be that this gem is the key to reaching Buried Spirit Lake?" Her Lady Queen asked.

"It's hard to tell. At least, this single gem does not provide me with any guidance. I am also unable to sense anything special about it," Chu Feng said.

"Could it be that you don't have enough of them?"

"Afterall, the other clue you obtained was a series of numbers."

"Could it be that you are to gather as many purple gems as this series of numbers?" Her Lady Queen said.

Hearing those words, Chu Feng frowned tightly. An ominous feeling emerged in his heart.

The reason for that was because the series of numbers was not a small amount.

Six, seven, four, nine, five, three. If they were to be converted into a numerical figure, then it would be six hundred and seventy-four thousand nine hundred and fifty-three gems.

This number was simply too enormous. How could he possibly find that many gems in the timeframe of a single day?

"There's a high possibility for that to be the case. Regardless, it is better that I put the purple gem away first."

Chu Feng was unable to deny that is was most probable that he needed to gather that enormous amount of purple gems.

Thus, Chu Feng put the purple gemstone away and prepared to leave.

The reason for that was because if he really needed to gather that many purple gems, he needed to hurry.

However, right after Chu Feng stood up and prepared to leave, he subconsciously took a glance at the flying insects that he had trapped.

He wanted to see if those flying insects would die now that he had taken the purple gemstone out of the tree.

However, once he looked at them, Chu Feng's expression immediately changed.

He was surprised to discover that not only did the flying insects not die, but they stopped flying around disorderly.

Instead, they had gathered in an orderly fashion and were flying together.

Their appearance seemed to indicate that they were going to change into something.

"Chu Feng, those flying insects are fishy," Her Lady Queen said.

"Eggy, you also noticed it?" Chu Feng asked.

"Of course. Rather than saying that this gem will be the key to lead you to Buried Spirit Lake, I feel that it is those flying insects that will lead you to Buried Spirit Lake. After all, their change is unconventional," Her Lady Queen said.

"That is indeed the case. Merely, due to some sort of reason, these flying insects are still unable to completely transform into the appearance that they should have transformed into," Chu Feng said.

After pondering for a while, the eyes of both Chu Feng and Her Lady Queen started to shine.

Simultaneously, they said, "The number!!!"

"That's right, it was the number. If one were to associate the amount listed in the number with the purple gemstone found within the tree, it would be truly difficult to accumulate that amount. After all, a single tree would only have a single purple gem."

"However, if we are to associate the amount with these flying insects, it would be much easier by comparison. It would also make more sense," Her Lady Queen said.

"Eggy, the two of us are thinking of the same thing," Chu Feng revealed a smile on his serious face.

The reason for that was because if he were to truly associate the amount listed by the series of numbers with these flying insects, it would greatly decrease the pressure he was currently under.

"Fortunately, you did not kill them directly, but instead sealed them away. Else, we wouldn't have discovered the mystery they contain," Her Lady Queen said.

"We still cannot be certain that these flying insects are the key leading to Buried Spirit Lake."

"However, if these flying insects are truly the key to Buried Spirit Lake, then I must say that the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan is truly too cunning," Chu Feng gasped with admiration.

The reason for that was because these flying insects possessed very powerful offensive capabilities. If anyone below the True Immortal level of cultivation was to encounter them, they would definitely end up suffering.

Generally, if one was to encounter a situation like this, they would kill the flying insects without the slightest hesitation.

Should that happen, one would not be able to notice that the flying insects would form some sort of guiding pattern when they were assembled together.

In fact, Chu Feng's decision to not kill those flying insects and instead seal them away was merely a sudden thought.

"Who cares? We need to find more of these flying insects. If other flying insects are also able to be gathered with these flying insects and change like them, this would mean that these flying insects are most definitely fishy," Her Lady Queen said.

"Mn, in that case, I must treat these little guys well."

Chu Feng set up a spirit formation. This spirit formation was very small. It was only the size of one's palm.

However, this spirit formation possessed a similar function to Cosmos Sacks. Even though it seemed very small, it could contain millions of such flying insects.

Chu Feng placed the flying insects into his spirit formation and then continued to wander in the mountain forest. He continued to search for trees emitting a purple radiance.

As for whether or not the guesses made by him and Her Lady Queen were correct, he would be able to determine it after finding the next purple tree.

Chapter 2778 - Li Xiang In Trouble

Afterwards, Chu Feng continued onward. Soon, he encountered another purple tree. He approached it and, sure enough, a large quantity of flying insects flew out from the purple tree. The amount of flying insects this time around was even greater than last time. A rough estimate would be over a thousand flying insects.

Chu Feng was overjoyed upon seeing this. He directly tossed forth the spirit formation he held in his hand. Once his spirit formation was tossed out, it started to emit enormous suction power.

Although those flying insects appeared to be extremely fierce, and would cause anyone below the True Immortal level of cultivation to suffer upon encountering them, they were powerless to retaliate before Chu Feng, and could only allow themselves to be controlled.

With the enormous suction power, the group of flying insects seemed to have fallen into an invisible cage. In the end, they were all sucked into Chu Feng's spirit formation.

After those insects were captured in his spirit formation, Chu Feng immediately retrieved the spirit formation and began to carefully inspect the situation inside.

"Eggy, the two of us might've really guessed correctly. These flying insects are the key to entering Buried Spirit Lake," Chu Feng became wild with joy.

The reason for that was because after those newly captured flying insects entered the spirit formation, not only did they not clash with the flying insects already inside the spirit formation, but they also started gathering with the flying insects inside.

Furthermore, after they gathered together, they also started to change. As for the change, it was a bit more evident compared to the last group of flying insects. Although it was only a bit more evident, it was still captured by Chu Feng.

"Quickly, go and capture more. You must capture enough flying insects in a day's time."

"You must try your best to enter Buried Spirit Lake before its eruption," Her Lady Queen urged.

"As you command, Milady Queen," Chu Feng laughed mischievously. Then, he continued to search for more flying insects.

Chu Feng's mood was extremely good at that moment. He felt that he had finally found the right path to follow.

Afterwards, Chu Feng began to roam about the vast mountain. There was only a single goal in his mind - capture a sufficient amount of flying insects.

Of course, Chu Feng was not only capturing the flying sects. He also gathered the purple gemstones.

Even though Chu Feng was unable to tell what use those purple gems possessed, he was also unable to ascertain that they were useless. Thus, it would be better that he gather them too.

Chu Feng would occasionally encounter other people on the mountain. Those people were all roaming around aimlessly. They simply did not even have the slightest clue as to what to do.

When they encountered Chu Feng, they all reacted as if they had found their savior, and wanted to follow Chu Feng so that he could bring them to Buried Spirit Lake.

However, although Chu Feng was a kindhearted individual, he was not someone who would help anyone and everyone.

Furthermore, there was no relationship between those people and him. Thus, there was simply no reason for Chu Feng to help them.

Thus, Chu Feng would always shake off those people without bothering to even pay attention to them.

However, there were also exceptions. Those were the people from the Immortal Armament Villa and the Sacred Pellet Villa.

There was no need to mention the people from the Immortal Armament Villa. The reason why Chu Feng was able to participate was all thanks to the Immortal Armament Villa's Villa Master. Thus, Chu Feng felt that he should help the disciples of the Immortal Armament Villa should he encounter them.

As for the Sacred Pellet Villa, it was purely because Chu Feng had a pretty decent impression of them.

Even though the first impression Li Xiang and his two buddies gave Chu Feng was very bad, Chu Feng's impression of them had improved a lot after experiencing things with them.

This was especially true for Li Xiang. After he exploded in rage, he actually ruthlessly slapped Yuwen Hualong.

Chu Feng felt that Li Xiang was very brave. Thus, he started to think highly of him.

In the blink of an eye, over half a day passed. Chu Feng was feeling more joyous, and also more nervous. The reason for that was because he was about to gather the amount of flying insects he needed according to the series of numbers.

This was the reason why Chu Feng was both joyful and nervous. He was joyful because he would soon reach the goal that he had worked so hard toward.

He was nervous because he was worried that he might discover upon gathering the required amount of flying insects that it was just a red herring played by the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan. He was worried that the flying insects were simply not the key to Buried Spirit Lake. If that was the case, all of Chu Feng's effort would be in vain.

That said, regardless, Chu Feng must still gather the required amount of flying insects first.

Chu Feng had encountered quite a few people on his journey so far.

He had even run into Li Xiang's two buddies.

However, he had yet to encounter Li Xiang himself.

From Li Xiang's two buddies, Chu Feng came to find out that the three of them had followed after Chu Feng and entered the same beam of light.

Thus, it was due to the beam of light that the three of them were unable to appear at the same location.

That being said, Chu Feng had no idea that there was actually another reason why he did not encounter Li Xiang.

The reason for that was because even though other people were walking about aimlessly in the mountain, they had expanded their range. As such, it was easier for them to encounter others on the mountain.

However, the stubborn Li Xiang had decided to follow a mountain path he had discovered the entire time. Thus, he had actually been moving about in circles, unable to make progress.

This greatly reduced the chance of him encountering others.

"Fuck! What the hell is this? I have walked for so long, yet I still haven't reached Buried Spirit Lake?"

"Not only that, but I actually didn't manage to encounter a single person."

"Heavens, please don't let me down. Don't betray the hopes of a dedicated individual like myself."

Li Xiang continued to walk down the same path while muttering to himself.

Actually, he had also thought that the mountain path he was on might be a trick to confuse him. However, apart from this mountain path, he had not discovered anything that could lead him to Buried Spirit Lake.

As for the clue that he had obtained from his glass ball, he felt it to simply be a scam. The reason for that was because the clue was simply too vague.

Thus, even though Li Xiang knew that following the mountain path was incorrect, he still insisted on doing so. He felt that he might be able to actually reach Buried Spirit Lake should he continue to walk down the mountain path.

He knew that this was a very foolish method, a method that relied completely on luck.

However, apart from this, Li Xiang was unable to think of any other method to reach Buried Spirit Lake.

"Truly a fool."

"There's actually really someone who continued to follow this mountain path the entire time."

"I am truly unable to imagine how someone like you managed to continue to live for so long."

Suddenly, a mocking voice sounded from the nearby forest.

Li Xiang was immediately furious upon hearing this voice. He turned his gaze around and planned to argue with the person who had called him a fool.

However, after he saw who the individual that mocked him was, his expression changed immediately. Without uttering another word, he turned around and started fleeing.

The reason for that was because that person was one of the two people that Li Xiang did not wish to encounter the most.

That person was Yuwen Tingyi.

"Trying to flee?"

Yuwen Tingyi's expression turned sinister. He waved his sleeve and immediately brought forth a violent wind. With his sleeve as the center, the violent wind formed a vortex.

Li Xiang was caught in the vortex. Like a loose kite, Li Xiang was blown left and right inside. When he landed on the ground, he was already dizzy, his vision blurred and his complexion pale. He was unable to even stand up.

Li Xiang was kneeling on the ground and vomiting blood nonstop.

"What are you planning to do? I am a disciple of the Scared Pellet Villa. If you dare touch me, our Sacred Pellet Villa will definitely not spare you," Li Xiang said with his weak voice.

He knew that the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan never concerned themselves with personal conflicts that might occur among the guests that arrived at that place.

Thus, if Li Xiang wanted to protect himself, he could only bring up the Sacred Pellet Villa.

That being said, Li Xiang was still very scared. After all, he had heard rumors that Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong were deranged individuals. The two of them were completely undisciplined and out of control. They were very well-known to be vicious and fierce.

"What's this? Scared? What happened to your arrogance earlier?"

"Why weren't you scared when you slapped my brother Hualong ten thousand times?" Yuwen Tingyi walked over to Li Xiang. He had a smile on his face. However, that smile was extremely frightening. Li Xiang was shaking nonstop from fear.

Yuwen Tingyi was looking at Li Xiang with an extremely ice-cold gaze. Killing intent was present within his eyes.

"That is because he lost to Chu Feng in their bet. Those slaps are what he deserved. I merely did what I needed to do," Li Xiang said.

"Bullshit!" Yuwen Tingyi was furious. As he spoke, a slap was sent forth.

"Paa!" His slap landed on Li Xiang's face.

When that slap landed, Li Xiang was sent flying several meters away. When he landed, his face was completely deformed. Blood was flowing from his mutilated face unceasingly.

However, Yuwen Tingyi did not have any intention of stopping. He walked over to Li Xiang and raised his hand once more. He planned to slap Li Xiang again.

"Stop!"

Right at that moment, a voice suddenly exploded from afar.

Turning toward the voice, it was actually a disciple from the Immortal Armament Villa. Judging from his appearance, he should have been wandering around the mountain and arrived there by chance to encounter what was happening.

"Yuwen Tingyi, what are you doing? Do not mess around."

That Immortal Armament Villa's disciple could be said to be quite courageous. Not only did he not flee after seeing what was happening, but he instead stood forth with the intention to stop Yuwen Tingyi.

"Scram!" Yuwen Tingyi waved his sleeve, and a strong burst of wind swept forth. That Immortal Armament Villa's disciple was unable to avoid the wind at all, and was knocked several meters away.

"Utter another word and I'll kill you too," Yuwen Tingyi spoke fiercely.

After hearing those words, that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple no longer tried to stick around. Instead, he got back to his feet with difficulty and hurriedly ran toward the direction he came from.

At that moment, Yuwen Tingyi turned his gaze to Li Xiang again. Viciousness filled his gaze.

"Don't be scared, I will not kill you immediately."

"I will have you properly experience what it means to be in so much pain that you'll wish you were dead."

"This is the consequence of going against us."

Yuwen Tingyi looked to Li Xiang and spoke with a perverted tone.

Chapter 2779 - Not A Coward

Although that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple left, he did not plan to disregard Li Xiang just like that.

Thus, although he had left, he left marks behind. He planned to find reinforcements and return to rescue Li Xiang.

Unfortunately, even though that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple fled far away from Li Xiang and Yuwen Tingyi, he was unable to find a single person. Because of that, he started to grow anxious.

After all, from the way Yuwen Tingyi was behaving, that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple was certain that he was planning to kill Li Xiang. If he was to return too late, then even if he was to find reinforcements to rescue Li Xiang, they would be useless.

Right at the moment when the Immortal Armament Villa's disciple was filled with worry, a joyous expression suddenly emerged in his eyes.

He had discovered that a large group of people were approaching him. Furthermore, the person leading the group of people was actually Chu Feng.

Chu Feng was precisely the person that the Immortal Armament Villa's disciple wanted to find the most.

After all, had it been someone else, they might not necessarily concern themselves with Li Xiang. However, this Immortal Armament Villa's disciple felt that Chu Feng would very likely concern himself with Li Xiang.

"Chu Feng, brother Chu Feng, this is bad, this is extremely bad."

Suddenly, that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple started to shout loudly.

Chu Feng had actually noticed that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple long ago. Chu Feng had been intentionally walking toward the Immortal Armament Villa's disciple. The reason for that was because Chu Feng wanted to bring the people from both the Immortal Armament Villa and the Sacred Pellet Villa together with him to Buried Spirit Lake should he have the opportunity to reach it.

Thus, whenever Chu Feng encountered someone from the Immortal Armament Villa or the Sacred Pellet Villa, regardless of whether or not those people voiced their intention to follow him, he would invite them to join him.

However, upon seeing how nervous that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple was, the expression in Chu Feng's eyes changed. He realized that something might've happened.

Thus, Chu Feng's body shifted, and he instantly arrived before that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple.

"What happened?" Chu Feng asked.

"Li Xiang, Li Xiang, it's Li Xiang. Li Xiang was captured by Yuwen Tingyi. Yuwen Tingyi is planning to kill him," that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple said.

"What? You saw Yuwen Tingyi and Li Xiang?"

Hearing the words spoken by the Immortal Armament Villa's disciple, the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples immediately started to panic.

Actually, after hearing the news, Chu Feng's heart was also shaken. The reason for that was because this was precisely what he did not wish to occur the most.

"Where are they? Where did you see them?" Chu Feng asked. He was practically certain that the Immortal Armament Villa's disciple was not lying to him.

The reason for that was because not only did Chu Feng notice that this Immortal Armament Villa's disciple didn't seem to be lying, but he was also able to tell from his reaction that he had most likely witnessed it with his own eyes.

"I will lead you there right away."

That Immortal Armament Villa's disciple did not hesitate. He turned around and immediately started guiding Chu Feng.

Chu Feng's observational ability was, after all, very strong. Thus, after he was guided for a while, Chu Feng discovered the markings left behind by this Immortal Armament Villa's disciple. Thus, there was simply no need for him to guide Chu Feng anymore; Chu Feng would be able to rapidly proceed onward by himself.

Due to the fact that Chu Feng was overly worried about Li Xiang, he directly unleashed his full power. He released his rank three True Immortal-level aura, and his Lightning Mark also appeared on his forehead. Soon, Chu Feng's cultivation increased from rank three True Immortal to rank four True Immortal.

Under this sort of condition, the speed at which Chu Feng was traveling became much faster.

"Isn't brother Chu Feng a rank two True Immortal? When did he reach a breakthrough to rank three True Immortal?"

After Chu Feng unleashed his full power, the people following behind him all revealed astonished expressions.

They all knew very well that Chu Feng's cultivation was that of a rank two True Immortal. Furthermore, Chu Feng was also emitting the aura of a rank two True Immortal earlier.

Thus, how could Chu Feng's cultivation increase to rank three True Immortal in such a short period of time?

They all knew that Chu Feng had made his breakthrough to rank two True Immortal in the Immortal Armament Villa. It had not been a very long time since then. Thus, it shouldn't be possible for Chu Feng to make another breakthrough in such a short period of time.

At that moment, the crowd was both astonished and surprised by Chu Feng's cultivation. After they analyzed what had happened, some people felt that Chu Feng had concealed his cultivation from the very beginning.

The reason for that was because if Chu Feng had truly made a breakthrough to rank two True Immortal in the Immortal Armament Villa and then made another breakthrough to rank three True Immortal not long after, that sort of cultivation speed would simply be too astonishingly fast.

After all, it had only been two months since the time of the Immortal Armament Villa's hunting competition.

Thus, by comparison, Chu Feng concealing his actual cultivation was much more believable than Chu Feng making another breakthrough within two months' time.

Yuwen Tingyi and Li Xiang were still where they were at previously.

Merely, the current Li Xiang was no longer only suffering from facial mutilation. Instead, his entire body had been mutilated. His aura was also extremely weak. He simply resembled a dying man. He did not even have the strength to crawl to his feet.

"Look at you, what use is it to walk so close to that Chu Feng?"

"If it wasn't for the bet between him and my brother Hualong, you wouldn't have become our enemy and wouldn't be reduced to your current state."

Yuwen Tingyi used a ridiculing tone to speak to Li Xiang. He was not actually feeling sympathy for him. Instead, he was mocking him. He was sneering at Li Xiang.

"Haha…" Li Xiang's voice was very weak. It was as if speaking was currently very strenuous for him. However, he laughed. Furthermore, his laughter was slightly ridiculing.

"What's this? You… want to incite disharmony in my relationship with big brother Chu Feng?"

"If that's the case, you are truly overthinking things."

"The fact that Yuwen Hualong attacked me in a completely uncalled-for manner meant that he had already viewed me as an eyesore. Based on the moral character of you and him, even if I was to remain quiet and submit to humiliation, you two would still not necessarily let me go should I encounter the two of you in the future."

"Moreover, big brother Chu Feng only decided to bet against Yuwen Hualong for my sake."

"As for the ten thousand slaps that I gave Yuwen Hualong, I, Li Xiang, did it of my own accord."

"Thus, I not only do not blame big brother Chu Feng, but I instead feel very grateful toward him. After all, I have only known him for such a short period of time. Yet, he was willing to stick his neck out for me. From this, it was clear that he is someone who cares deeply for his friends. At the very least, he has considered me, Li Xiang, as his friend."

"As for Yuwen Hualong's ten thousand slaps, to be honest, I do not regret it even now."

"I, Li Xiang, cannot be considered to be some sort of hero. However, I am definitely not a coward."

"If you want to kill me or torture me, do as you wish. If I, Li Xiang, am to blink once, I will change my surname to yours."

While Li Xiang was very weak, he spoke very strong words.

Hearing what Li Xiang said, Yuweng Tingyi was startled. However, a sinister look of anger soon emerged on his face.

"Very well. You are not a coward. Since that's the case, I am changing my plan."

"If I am to really kill you, it would be letting you off too easily. Instead, I will make you suffer for the rest of your life."

As Yuwen Tingyi spoke, he extended his finger. Then, a blade formed with martial power emerged from his finger. That blade was shot toward Li Xiang's dantian.

"Puu," the martial power blade pierced through Li Xiang's dantian.

Yuwen Tingyi was planning to cripple Li Xiang's cultivation.

Although True Immortal experts' bodies were undying and indestructible, that would only hold true when compared to those weaker than them.

When encountering someone like Yuwen Tingyi, someone with strength far surpassing Li Xiang's strength, Li Xiang would be akin to a lamb in a slaughterhouse. Yuwen Tingyi could do whatever he wanted with him, and Li Xiang was powerless to do anything.

Yuwen Tingyi looked at the curled up Li Xiang on the ground with a beaming smile on his face. With a mocking tone, he said, "Go on and beg me. If you are to beg me to my satisfaction, I might consider forgiving you."

At that moment, Li Xiang was able to clearly sense his cultivation escaping from his body.

He knew that he would soon lose all of his cultivation and become a cripple without any cultivation.

However, even with that being the case, Li Xiang merely clenched his teeth and did not beg for forgiveness. In fact, he did not even utter a single sound of pain.

Li Xiang had admitted defeat. Thus, he was prepared to accept death.

"Li Xiang!!!"

However, right at that moment, a shout filled with enormous worry sounded from afar.

Hearing that voice, Li Xiang's heart and mind was immediately shaken.

He was able to tell that the voice was Chu Feng's voice.

Chapter 2780 - Paying The Price

"Seems like I'm on the verge of dying."

With a wry smile on his face, Li Xiang shook his head. He did not really think that Chu Feng had arrived to save him.

Instead, he felt that he was having hallucinations because he was about to die. He felt that what he had heard were merely hallucinating sounds.

"Li Xiang, are you alright?" However, right at that moment, Chu Feng's voice not only sounded by Li Xiang's ears, but Li Xiang even felt that someone was helping him up.

Li Xiang raised his head to look, and discovered that Chu Feng was beside him. Furthermore, Chu Feng was bringing him and moving away. By the time Chu Feng stopped his movements, the two of them had distanced themselves far away from Yuwen Tingyi. Furthermore, even more people appeared around Li Xiang. Not only were there disciples from the Immortal Armament Villa, but there were also disciples from his Sacred Pellet Villa.

"Big brother Chu Feng, it really is you?"

Li Xiang did not dare to believe his eyes. He was actually rescued?

At that moment, Li Xiang was no longer as strong-willed as he was before. Tears began to spill from his eyes.

He was crying because he knew that he might really be saved, that he might not have to die.

"Li Xiang, don't be scared, you're fine now."

"However, you are injured. Thus, do not say anything, and focus on retaining your physical strength and cooperating with me so that I can heal your injuries," Chu Feng said to Li Xiang with a smile on his face.

While Chu Feng appeared to be very calm on the surface, Chu Feng was feeling very restless inside.

He had already set up a healing formation and started helping Li Xiang heal his injuries. However, he discovered that he had arrived a bit too late. A lot of Li Xiang's cultivation had already escaped from him. Even with Chu Feng's current strength, the outcome would still not be optimistic.

"This is truly searching all over the world just for what you want to voluntarily appear before you. Chu Feng, I have searched for you painstakingly, yet was unable to find you. However, you actually brought yourself to me."

"The Heavens have eyes. This is truly what they mean by the Heavens have eyes."

Right at that moment, frantic laughter suddenly exploded from nearby.

It was Yuwen Tingyi. Although he was laughing, he looked very frightening. The reason for that was because he was laughing very sinisterly.

Chu Feng did not bother to pay attention to Yuwen Tingyi at all. In fact, he did not even bother to take a single glance at him. He had completely disregarded Yuwen Tingyi, and was focused on healing Li Xiang's injuries.

The reason for that was because Chu Feng knew very well that since Li Xiang's dantian was pierced and a great amount of his cultivation had escaped, right now was the most optimal timing for Chu Feng to help cure Li Xiang's injuries.

Being ignored by Chu Feng, Yuwen Tingyi narrowed his brows and asked coldly, "Chu Feng, do you not understand the situation you're in right now? Or could it be that you thought that just because you possessed the backing of the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan that I, Yuwen Tingyi, would not dare to touch you?"

"Shut up!"

To his enormous surprise, Chu Feng actually shouted at him. Furthermore, he did so with a commanding tone.

"Motherfucker! You are truly arrogant! If I don't let you experience some suffering, you will truly not know what I, Yuwen Tingyi, am capable of."

"Good, very good, I will help you. I will have you suffer the same sort of fate as that Li Xiang."

Yuwen Tingyi hated Chu Feng from deep in his bones to begin with. Thus, after being treated in such a manner by Chu Feng, Yuwen Tingyi's fury started to burn even more intensely. Without any hesitation, Yuwen Tingyi raised his hand and planned to attack Chu Feng.

Likely, Yuwen Tingyi also noticed that Chu Feng's cultivation was stronger than before. Thus, he unleashed a fatal attack at Chu Feng from the get-go.

At the moment when Yuwen Tingyi's fatal attack was about to reach Chu Feng, five rays of light flew out from Chu Feng's body.

After those five rays of light flew out from Chu Feng's body, they turned into five enormous figures.

Most importantly, those five figures possessed auras even more powerful than Chu Feng. Their cultivation was actually the same as Yuwen Tingyi; they were all rank five True Immortals.

After those five figures appeared, they not only blocked Yuwen Tingyi's attack, but they also began to unleash attacks at Yuwen Tingyi.

Those five figures not only possessed the auras of rank five True Immortals, but their actual strength was also that of rank five True Immortals.

Furthermore, their attacks were exceptionally powerful. It was as if they were truly immortals.

Faced with the sudden attacks of five rank five True Immortals, Yuwen Tingyi was caught unprepared.

As for the disciples from the Sacred Pellet Villa and the Immortal Armament Villa, they were completely stunned.

The reason for that was because those five figures not only possessed immortal airs like actual immortals, but they were also extremely exceptional in their usage of martial power. Most importantly, the disciples knew that those five figures were not actual cultivators. Rather, they were some sort of technique.

"What sort of technique is that? It's actually that powerful?"

"They feel like secret skills. But, how could there be secret skills this powerful?"

As the people present were not merely martial cultivation experts but also world spiritists, they possessed very strong perception. Soon, someone determined that what Chu Feng had unleashed were secret skills.

Indeed, what Chu Feng was using were secret skills. They were the Five Elements Secret Skills.

The special characteristic of the Five Elements Secret Skills was that their cultivation would always be a level above that of their master.

Back when Chu Feng was still in the Ancestral Martial Lower Realm with a cultivation below the True Immortal realm, the Five Elements Secret Skills were practically useless because Chu Feng's heaven-defying battle power was too strong, whereas the Five Elements Secret Skills did not possess any.

Thus, even though they were a level of cultivation above Chu Feng, they were ineffective in battle.

However, now that Chu Feng had stepped into the True Immortal realm, everything had changed.

Chu Feng's heaven-defying battle power had also disappeared. In that sort of circumstance, the Five Elements Secret Skills' special characteristic could be unleashed once again.

Even though Chu Feng knew that it would be impossible for the Five Elements Secret Skills to actually defeat Yuwen Tingyi, they were able to obstruct him.

As for the Five Elements Secret Skills, they did not disappoint Chu Feng either. The five of them possessed sharp attacks, and coordinated with one another properly. They really managed to stop Yuwen Tingyi.

At that moment, Chu Feng had bought himself some time to continue healing Li Xiang's injuries.

However, the more Chu Feng continued to heal Li Xiang, the more powerless he felt.

In the end, Chu Feng was only able to preserve Li Xiang's cultivation at rank nine Martial Ancestor. He was unable to restore Li Xiang's rank one True Immortal-level cultivation.

"Bang~~~"

"Bang~~~"

"Bang~~~"

At that moment, muffled explosions were heard nonstop. Water splattered about, and waves of fire surged forth.

It was the Five Elements Secret Skills. They were being repeatedly killed by Yuwen Tingyi.

The reason why Yuwen Tingyi was able to kill the Five Elements Secret Skill was because a large black blade had appeared in his hand.

That black blade was an Incomplete Immortal Armament. Yuwen Tingyi had gotten serious.

However, while the Five Elements Secret Skills might not be a match for Yuwen Tingyi, they possessed another special characteristic. That is, as long as their master lived, they would be undying and indestructible.

Even though the bodies of the Five Elements Secret Skills were being destroyed by Yuwen Tingyi one after another, they immediately recovered and returned to attacking Yuwen Tingyi.

"Chu Feng, do you really think that you can stop me with a mere trick like this?!"

Yuwen Tingyi suddenly let out a snarl. The next moment, his body started transforming.

His skin turned rock-like. It was as if he had turned into a rock humanoid. Furthermore, he was emitting a dazzling silver light.

That said, not only was Yuwen Tingyi still agile, but his aura also became stronger than before.

It was Divine Power. Although Yuwen Tingyi's Divine Power was incomparable to Chu Feng's Lightning Mark, and could not increase his cultivation, it was still capable of greatly increasing his battle power.

After he unleashed his Divine Power, the Five Elements Secret Skills were completely incapable of contending against him. Even though the Five Elements Secret Skills were undying and indestructible, they were simply incapable of even hindering Yuwen Tingyi.

"Chu Feng, stand there and don't attempt to escape. Your daddy will come and destroy you right away."

Yuwen Tingyi had a sinister expression on his face. He appeared even more frightening than a ferocious beast. With his Incomplete Immortal Armament in hand, he began to walk toward Chu Feng one step at a time.

Seeing this scene, the disciples from both the Immortal Armament Villa and the Sacred Pellet Villa grew scared. Involuntarily, they began to retreat.

The reason for that was because they all noticed Yuwen Tingyi's determined killing intent. He was not only planning to cripple Chu Feng's cultivation, he was planning to kill Chu Feng.

At that moment, there were people that started to send Chu Feng voice transmissions, telling him to quickly escape with Li Xiang.

Although they all knew that Chu Feng had defeated Chu Xianshuo, they also all knew that Chu Xianshuo was, although also a genius, inferior to Yuwen Tingyi.

Thus, although Chu Feng had defeated Chu Xianshuo, they couldn't be certain as to whether or not he would be able to defeat Yuwen Tingyi.

However, Chu Feng turned a deaf ear to their urging for him to escape with Li Xiang. It was as if he could not hear anything at all. Chu Feng began to help Li Xiang tidy up his clothes.

Even though Yuwen Tingyi was approaching him with overflowing killing intent, Chu Feng did not have the slightest intention to flee. Seeing this, the crowd all started to worry. Not only were they worried that Chu Feng and Li Xiang would be killed, they were also worried that they would be killed.

"This sensation?"

Suddenly, the expressions of the disciples from the Immortal Armament Villa and the Sacred Pellet Villa changed enormously.

They sensed a killing intent even more frightening than Yuwen Tingyi's killing intent. As for that killing intent, it was being emitted from a location very close to them.

Chu Feng. It was Chu Feng. That killing intent was being emitted from Chu Feng.

"Chu Feng, you…?"

The crowd looked to Chu Feng again. When they did so, their bodies trembled, and their hair stood on end.

The reason for that was because they discovered that the current Chu Feng was completely different from before. If one were to ask what was different regarding Chu Feng, they would not be able to tell. Merely, the current Chu Feng gave them a very frightening sensation.

Before the frightened gazes of the crowd, Chu Feng slowly stood up. In his hand was his Incomplete Immortal Armament, the Divine Dragon's Blood Ruler.

Although Chu Feng had not turned into a rock-like monster in the manner that Yuwen Tingyi did, Chu Feng was even more frightening than Yuwen Tingyi.

Lightning was flashing in his eyes. They simply did not resemble a human's eyes. Those eyes were simply even more frightening than those of monsters, for those eyes resembled the eyes of a demon.

Chu Feng's gaze was focused on Yuwen Tingyi. Sensing Chu Feng's current gaze, even Yuwen Tingyi's body started to tremble. Involuntarily, he stopped advancing.

Yuwen Tingyi was actually starting to panic.

At that moment, Chu Feng's incomparably ice-cold voice sounded. "Yuwen Tingyi, I do not care what sort of identity you possess. Today, I, Chu Feng, will make you pay the price for what you've done."

Chapter 2781 - Logical Choice

"Buzz~~~"

The Five Elements Secret Skills turned into five rays of light and returned to Chu Feng's body.

The crowd was surprised by this scene. They didn't understand whether Chu Feng did this because he was confident, or if it was because of something else.

After all, they felt that even though the Five Elements Secret Skills were no longer capable of stopping Yuwen Tingyi, they were still capable of annoying him and making him unable to focus completely. With that in mind, they were beneficial for Chu Feng. Thus, Chu Feng shouldn't have retrieved them.

"Pay the price?"

"Who gave you the confidence to speak to me in such a manner?"

"Could it be that you really think that you can defeat me?"

At that moment, Yuwen Tingyi sneered arrogantly.

Even though he was already panicking slightly in his heart, even though he knew that Chu Feng possessed a secret skill, an enormous golden sword that was extremely powerful and capable of increasing his battle power by an entire level, Yuwen Tingyi did not feel that he would lose to Chu Feng.

The reason for that was because he felt that he was much stronger than Chu Xianshuo.

In fact, he felt that Chu Xianshuo was a disappointment to the title of genius. He felt that it would simply be impossible for Chu Xianshuo to be discussed alongside him.

Thus, even though Chu Feng had defeated Chu Xianshuo in battle, Yuwen Tingyi did not believe that Chu Feng was very powerful.

As the saying goes, even among people of the same cultivation, there would be differences in strength. As for Yuwen Tingyi, he had always felt himself to be an extremely powerful individual among all rank five True Immortals. As such, he did not feel that Chu Feng would be able to rival him.

"Buzz~~~"

Right at that moment, with a thought from Chu Feng, golden light began to radiate before him. Then, the Ancient Era's War Axe and Ancient Era's War Sword appeared simultaneously.

After the two secret skills appeared, the earth and the surrounding space started to tremble violently. At the same time, overwhelming oppressive might swept forth, aimed directly at Yuwen Tingyi.

In an instant, a violent wind erupted, and dead leaves started to swirl in the air. That oppressive might was no small matter.

Sensing how powerful that oppressive might was, Yuwen Tingyi also started to frown. He hurriedly held the Incomplete Immortal Armament in his hand horizontally before him. At the time, surging martial power was released. Like layers of defensive formations, they blocked the path before him.

Those were no ordinary defensive formations. Rather, it was a martial skill.

Yuwen Tingyi was trying to utilize that method to block the oppressive might unleashed by the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe.

"Wuuahh~~~"

However, the next moment, when the oppressive might came in contact with Yuwen Tingyi's defensive martial skill, that defensive martial skill was instantly shattered.

As for Yuwen Tingyi, he was an utter mess. He was knocked several meters away by the oppressive might. When he landed on the ground, the Incomplete Immortal Armament he had previously held had left his grasp, and both of his arms had been shattered by the oppressive might.

However, Chu Feng's Ancient Era's War Sword did not stop with just that. Instead, it continued to move toward Yuwen Tingyi. In the end, it pierced into Yuwen Tingyi's body.

"Eeaaahh~~~"

Yuwen Tingyi's head faced the sky. With his mouth wide open, he started to scream miserably.

His scream was akin to the howling of wolves. It resonated through the entire region and reached the ears of everyone present.

At that moment, the disciples from the Immortal Armament Villa and the Sacred Pellet Villa all opened their mouths wide in shock. They looked to one another and then became even more astonished.

Even though they had felt Chu Feng's killing intent before all this happened and knew that Chu Feng's killing intent was even scarier than Yuwen Tingyi's killing intent, it remained that that was only killing intent, and could not represent the true battle power a martial cultivator possessed.

Because of this, the crowd was very worried about Chu Feng when he decided that he would confront Yuwen Tingyi. They were scared that Chu Feng would not be a match for him.

After all, Yuwen Tingyi's reputation was very resounding among the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm's younger generations.

Never would they ever have imagined that Yuwen Tingyi would be defeated so miserably. Chu Feng had defeated Yuwen Tingyi in merely a split second.

How could the disparity between the two of them be so enormous?

They clearly knew that when Chu Feng fought against Chu Xianshuo, they had fought for a while before Chu Feng emerged victorious.

How come when it was Yuwen Tingyi's turn, he would be so thoroughly defeated?

"I got it now. When Chu Feng fought against Chu Xianshuo, he was trying to prove himself. Thus, he had not gone all-out from the very start, and was instead just trying to suppress Chu Xianshuo the entire time."

"However now, due to Yuwen Tingyi having injured Li Xiang, Chu Feng's heart was filled with anger. Thus, he wanted to instantly settle the battle, and went all-out from the very start."

"As for the result of him going all-out, it is clear to all of us. Before such a Chu Feng, even Yuwen Tingyi is unable to fight back," a disciple from the Immortal Armament Villa said to another disciple with a low voice.

Even though he was speaking very quietly, he was still heard by others.

After hearing what he said, the others all nodded their heads. They felt that what he said was very reasonable.

"Eeaahhh~~~"

Another miserable scream was heard. That scream was even more miserable than the previous scream. Yuwen Tingyi was actually lifted up by the Ancient Era's War Sword.

Actually, Yuwen Tingyi was only slightly pierced through by the Ancient Era's War Sword. Otherwise, with how enormous the Ancient Era's War Sword was, if it was to completely pierce through Yuwen Tingyi, he would have died horribly already.

However, the situation at hand for Yuwen Tingyi was very miserable too. His expression was twisted and distorted. Pain filled his entire face. At that moment, he was able to feel the threat of death.

"Chu Feng, what are you planning to do? If you dare to do anything to me, my Yuwen Clan will definitely not spare you!"

Sensing that the situation was bad, Yuwen Tingyi immediately brought forth his own clan to support himself.

"Eeeahhh~~~"

Right after Yuwen Tingyi said those words, the Ancient Era's War Sword penetrated him a bit deeper.

Chu Feng simply had no desire to stop.

"Brother Chu Feng, just let it pass. There really isn't a need for you to do all this for Li Xiang."

"That's right. Brother Chu Feng, Yuwen Tingyi has already received his lesson. You should just spare him."

At that moment, the disciples from the Immortal Armament Villa began to urge Chu Feng against killing Yuwen Tingyi. They all felt that there was no reason for Chu Feng to completely offend the Yuwen Clan just because of Li Xiang.

After all, they all knew that Chu Feng and Li Xiang had not known one another for long. This sort of relationship was the most superficial kind. It would truly be unworthy should Chu Feng really kill Yuwen Tingyi because of Li Xiang.

"Chu Feng, what they said is correct. You shouldn't be treating me like this because of that Li Xiang."

"After all, you and Li Xiang have only known one another for a short while. Furthermore, he was trying to take care of you before too. He is simply not following you out of sincerity."

"There is simply no need for you to be so against me because of someone like him."

At that moment, even Yuwen Tingyi was saying that sort of thing.

Hearing those words, Li Xiang was feeling somewhat upset. He also felt that he was unworthy of Chu Feng treating him so well.

After all, what Yuwen Tingyi said was correct. He had indeed tried to take care of Chu Feng before.

Had it not been for the fact that Chu Feng possessed a special status and the elders of the Sacred Pellet Villa were unwilling to take care of Chu Feng, Li Xiang would likely have already gotten away with his plot against Chu Feng.

There was simply no need for Chu Feng to offend the Yuwen Clan for someone like him.

Should it be someone with the slightest bit of rationality, they would know what they should do.

Chapter 2782 - This Is Chu Feng

"What you all have said is all correct."

Right at that moment, Chu Feng spoke.

"I know what is advantageous for me to do and what is detrimental for me to do."

"However, must I always do what is advantageous for me? Must I never do what is detrimental to me?" Chu Feng asked the crowd.

"Brother Chu Feng, the world of martial cultivators is an extremely cruel one. One really should make sensible choices."

"That's right, brother Chu Feng. Moreover, that Yuwen Tingyi has already admitted defeat. You should just spare him."

It was not only the Immortal Armament Villa's disciples that started to urge Chu Feng against killing Yuwen Tingyi, even the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples began to urge Chu Feng against killing Yuwen Tingyi.

They were actually all thinking for Chu Feng's sake. They did not wish for Chu Feng and the Yuwen Clan to become completely irreconcilable enemies with one another.

After all, regardless of how talented Chu Feng might be, he was still only a member of the younger generation with limited strength. If he were to kill Yuwen Tingyi and offend the Yuwen Clan at such a time, it would be extremely detrimental for Chu Feng.

"Sensible choices? What are sensible choices?"

"If I am to do as you all suggested, then as long as it's something that I want, regardless of who that thing might belong to, I should seize it for myself should I be capable of doing so. Even if I am to kill innocent people in the process, I still should not hesitate, right?"

"If I like a woman, then regardless of whether or not she likes me, I merely need to forcibly seize her, right?"

"As for those people that I am unable to handle, then even if they killed my friends or even my family, I should not attempt to avenge my friends and family because I am no match for them. Instead, I should attempt to befriend them, call them brothers and disregard former hatreds, is that right?"

Chu Feng cast his gaze to the crowd and asked with a forceful tone.

At that moment, everyone turned silent. They were unable to respond.

The reason for that was because they also felt that what Chu Feng had said was not without justification.

Indeed, there were a lot of things that would be beneficial to oneself in the world. However, one could not do everything that was beneficial to oneself and not do something just because it was detrimental.

After all, people were composed of blood and flesh, they were beings with emotions and feelings.

"Yuwen Tingyi, I have no need for you to tell me who Li Xiang is."

"How could I not know that I do not know him very well? How could I not know that the two of us have only been acquaintances for a very short period of time?"

"However, since I have decided to befriend him, it means that he is my friend. Even though I have only known him for several days. It remains that he is my friend."

"As for I, Chu Feng, I do not allow anyone to touch my friends. If anyone is to touch my friends, then even if that person is the Celestial Emperor himself, I, Chu Feng, would still not spare him," Chu Feng said to Yuwen Tingyi.

"Chu Feng, y-you…you must think this over properly. If you dare to kill me, my Yuwen Clan will definitely not spare you," seeing that Chu Feng was not planning to spare him, Yuwen Tingyi had started stuttering.

"I know that even without your reminder. If I am to touch you today, your Yuwen Clan will definitely not spare me. As long as I am still in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, your Yuwen Clan will definitely chase after me to kill me."

"However, I would like to ask this. If I didn't touch you today, would you have spared me?" Chu Feng asked.

"I… this…"

"Chu Feng, I… I actually never planned to harm you. I was merely trying to frighten you, merely playing a joke with you," Yuwen Tingyi explained.

"Heh…" Hearing that explanation, Chu Feng laughed. He found what Yuwen Tingyi said to be extremely funny.

"You merely wanted to play a joke with me? Thus, the killing intent you revealed towards me earlier was merely fake, you beating up Li Xiang and covering him with cuts and bruises was fake, you crippling his cultivation was also fake. All of this is a joke, isn't that right?"

"I…" Yuwen Tingyi did not know how to answer.

"Very well, since all that you've done are jokes, I, Chu Feng, will also play a joke with you today."

As Chu Feng spoke, the Ancient Era's War Sword started to shine even brighter. The next moment, it penetrated a bit deeper into Yuwen Tingyi's body. At the same time, an enormous change occurred to Yuwen Tingyi's body.

"Eeeaahh~~~"

At that moment, Yuwen Tingyi's mouth opened wide, and he let out a miserable scream.

"However, you don't have to fear either. I will not kill you. I will have you personally tell your clan that it was I, Chu Feng, who crippled your cultivation."

"Woosh~~~"

After Chu Feng finished saying those words, the Ancient Era's War Sword pulled back from Yuwen Tingyi's body.

"Eeeaahh~~~"

At that moment, the screams Yuwen Tingyi let out grew even more miserable. In fact, his screams were somewhat desperate.

The reason for that was because his dantian had been completely destroyed by Chu Feng. His cultivation had been crippled by Chu Feng.

Furthermore, Chu Feng had crippled his cultivation completely. There was no chance for him to even restore his cultivation.

"Chu Feng, you really dare to cripple my cultivation?! Remember this: my Yuwen Clan will definitely not let you get away with this, we will definitely not let you get away with this!!!"

Yuwen Tingyi gnashed his teeth with fury as he looked to Chu Feng with murderous desire filling his eyes. From his eyes, one could tell how much he detested Chu Feng.

"I know. I know that you will not let me get away with it. That's fine, I will wait for you all."

"Assuming that your Yuwen Clan is capable of eliminating this, Chu Feng," Chu Feng answered indifferently.

Hearing those words, Yuwen Tingyi nearly fainted from anger.

He finally realized why Chu Feng dared to treat him in such a manner. It turned out that Chu Feng had never placed the Yuwen Clan in his eyes to begin with.

That said, Yuwen Tingyi actually had no idea that that wasn't the case.

Chu Feng was currently completely on his own in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm. While the Yuwen Clan could not be considered to be among the strongest powers in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, and could not be considered a huge monster, they were still a power with some strength.

A power with the strength of the Yuwen Clan was still not something that the current Chu Feng could afford to offend.

Should he offend the Yuwen Clan, it would become extremely dangerous for Chu Feng. At the very least, he would have an opponent that he could not handle. In the future, he would not be able to avoid a life of fleeing.

Chu Feng also knew that if he didn't kill Yuwen Tingyi, his opponents might only be Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong. However, if he was to cripple Yuwen Tingyi's cultivation, his opponents would be the entire Yuwen Clan.

However, so what?

If he was fearful of anything and everything, then he wouldn't be Chu Feng.

Thus, even though he knew that he would be pursued by the Yuwen Clan in the future Chu Feng was still not afraid.

Before even doing anything, Chu Feng was already prepared to confront the Yuwen Clan. That was the reason why Chu Feng was able to remain this calm.

"Paa~~~"

"Paa, paa~~~"

Right at that moment, a series of crisp clasps suddenly sounded from behind Chu Feng.

The sudden applause shocked the people from the Immortal Armament Villa and the Sacred Pellet Villa.

Upon turning around, they discovered that it was actually the people from the Starfall Holy Land. Leading them was Xia Yun'er.

The claps originated from Xia Yun'er's lily white hands.

"Young master Chu Feng is truly courageous, loyal and affectionate. It is my enormous privilege to be able to be young master Chu Feng's friend," Xia Yun'er praised Chu Feng.

Chu Feng was not surprised in the slightest by Xia Yun'er's appearance. The reason for that was because Chu Feng had sensed her and the Starfall Holy Land's disciples' auras long ago.

Thus, Chu Feng knew very well that Xia Yun'er and the others had been there for some time already. They had not revealed themselves the entire time because they were secretly observing the situation from the shadows.

Thus, Xia Yun'er and the others personally witnessed the process of Chu Feng crippling Yuwen Tianyi.

Chapter 2783 - Enormously Furious

"Young master Chu Feng, we've heard that you've discovered the method to reach Buried Spirit Lake; might it be possible for you to bring us along?" A man from the Starfall Holy Land asked.

Chu Feng had met that person before. However, he had not spoken with him. In fact, when Xia Yun'er was talking with Chu Feng intimately before, Chu Feng had felt an ill-intended gaze from that man.

Yet now, he had a good-natured expression on his face, and was asking Chu Feng to bring them along as if there was a great relationship between them.

That being said, Chu Feng had anticipated this. After all, Chu Feng had tactfully refused many people so far.

Likely, someone had spread news stating that he had discovered the means to Buried Spirit Lake. After that news reached those people from the Starfall Holy Land, they took it to be true.

"Even I didn't know that I had found the method to reach Buried Spirit Lake," Chu Feng said.

"Chu Feng, don't you act so incapable of knowing what's good for you."

"It is your honor that we from the Starfall Holy Land have sought you to guide us."

Seeing that Chu Feng was actually planning to refuse them, the man that had spoken to Chu Feng earlier immediately changed his expression.

"Do not be rude," however, right after that man spoke, he was berated by Xia Yun'er.

"Young master Chu Feng, I've heard that you've not only collected the gemstones from the purple trees, but you've also collected the flying insects guarding the purple trees."

"I think you must've discovered the secret. Could it be… the secret to Buried Spirit Lake are the flying insects?" Xia Yun'er asked Chu Feng.

"That is what I think to be the case. However, I also do not know whether or not it is correct, as I have not captured a sufficient amount of flying insects," Chu Feng did not try to conceal anything.

Chu Feng knew very well that Xia Yun'er was an intelligent person. Since she had asked the question, it meant that she must've thought that the flying insects were the key.

After all, Xia Yun'er should've obtained the same clues as Chu Feng did.

"May I know how many flying insects young master Chu Feng is still lacking?" Xia Yun'er asked.

"I'm still lacking thirteen thousand four hundred and thirty-one flying insects," Chu Feng answered.

"It just so happens that I have also gathered some flying insects. Young master Chu Feng, how about we attempt to combine our gathered flying insects now?"

As Xia Yun'er spoke, she took out a spirit formation from her Cosmos Sack. Her spirit formation was similar to Chu Feng's, and it also sealed a great amount of flying insects within it.

Although the flying insects in her spirit formation were much less in number compared to the amount Chu Feng had gathered, there were over a hundred thousand flying insects in there. With those flying insects, Chu Feng would have gathered a sufficient amount of flying insects.

From this, it could be seen that Xia Yun'er had been gathering flying insects for quite a while.

Sure enough, she had also noticed that the flying insects were related to reaching Buried Spirit Lake.

"There's no need. I can gather them myself," Chu Feng shook his head.

"What is the meaning of this? Are you implying that we will insist on following you should you use our Holy Daughter's flying insects?" A disciple from the Starfall Holy Land said.

"Are you saying that you wouldn't?" Chu Feng asked.

Chu Feng knew very well that as long as he used Xia Yun'er's flying insects, those people from the Starfall Holy Land would all follow him. In fact… he would lose his authority over the flying insects.

After all, the people from the Starfall Holy Land were a group of unreasonable individuals.

Chu Feng only lacked a small amount of flying insects. Rather than using their flying insects, he could gather the flying insects himself. In that case, he would still have authority over them.

Thus, Chu Feng would naturally not use their flying insects.

"Watch your words! Are you implying that even if you managed to successfully obtain the method to reach Buried Spirit Lake, you would not bring us with you?" Another male disciple from the Starfall Holy Land said.

"That's right, I'm not planning to bring you all with me," Chu Feng said.

"Impudent!" That Starfall Holy Land's male disciple immediately grew furious.

"Impudent? How am I impudent? I'm impudent because I refuse to bring you all with me? Who do you all think you are? Do you think that you're the Chu Heavenly Clan? Did you think that you all are the overlord of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm?" Chu Feng asked.

"You…" The Starfall Holy Land's male disciple turned deep red from anger. However, he didn't know how to respond.

Actually, he really wanted to put forth the name of their Starfall Holy Land to suppress Chu Feng. However, Chu Feng put forth the name of the Chu Heavenly Clan from the very start. This made it so that he did not know how to reply.

After all, regardless of how powerful their Starfall Holy Land might be, they were still unable to withstand a single blow before the Chu Heavenly Clan.

Since Chu Feng had clearly stated that the overlord of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm was the Chu Heavenly Clan, if he was to attempt to put forth his Starfall Holy Land's name to suppress Chu Feng, it would instead be an act of revolt against the Chu Heavenly Clan.

He did not wish to shoulder this. Thus, he naturally would not dare to raise the name of the Starfall Holy Land to suppress Chu Feng.

"Brother Chu Feng, what you've said is incorrect. As the saying goes, one should help others."

"Moreover, we could be said to be acquaintances with one another. What's wrong with bringing us with you?" Another disciple from the Starfall Holy Land said.

"We are neither relatives nor friends, why must I bring you all with me? I'm sorry but I, Chu Feng, am not a philanthropist."

"Furthermore, I believe that you all are not philanthropists either."

"At the very least, when I was gambling with Yuwen Tingyi and the others, none of you all spoke a single word for me," Chu Feng said.

Hearing those words, the expressions of the disciples from the Starfall Holy Land, with the exception of Xia Yun'er, all turned extremely ugly.

Not only had Chu Feng refused them, but he had actually even obscurely mocked their character. As such, how could they not become furious?

As disciples of the Starfall Holy Land, they were beings that would be placed on a pedestal regardless of where they went. When had they ever been treated in such a manner?

"In that case, you are determined to not bring us with you, right?"

At that moment, the disciples from the Starfall Holy Land were all revealing furious and ferocious looks. Judging from their appearances, it was as if they would attack Chu Feng should Chu Feng declare that he would refuse them.

"So what if I am? Could it be that you all plan to attack me?" Chu Feng looked to the Starfall Holy Land's disciples with a gaze of contempt. There was even a faint smile on his face.

The Starfall Holy Land's disciple that had asked the question wanted to say something. However, in the end, he swallowed the words he wanted to say.

The reason for that was because they were not confident in being able to defeat Chu Feng in a battle.

After all, they had just witnessed with their very eyes earlier the scene of Chu Feng crippling Yuwen Tingyi's cultivation.

In terms of strength, all of them combined would not be a match for Chu Feng.

If they were to use force, they would truly not be able to win.

"Young master Chu Feng, you do not have to worry that we will tangle ourselves with you."

"I, Xia Yun'er, can declare to you here that these flying insects are merely my gift to you. Even if you are to successfully obtain the method to reach Buried Spirit Lake with them, you can still make your own decision as to whether or not to bring us with you. If you are not willing to bring us along with you, I, Xia Yun'er, will definitely not force myself onto you," Xia Yun'er said to Chu Feng.

At that moment, Chu Feng was once again reminded of how difficult it was to deal with that girl.

Chu Feng's words were against the Starfall Holy Land the entire time earlier. His words completely enraged those Starfall Holy Land's disciples.

Yet, Xia Yun'er did not have the slightest bit of reaction to his malicious words. And now, she was saying this sort of thing. It was sufficient to show that she was someone with extraordinary wisdom.

"Miss Xia, I merely do not wish to bring them along. I never said that I do not wish to bring you along. If you want to accompany us, I would not mind at all," Chu Feng said to Xia Yun'er with a smile.

Even though Chu Feng did not wish to bring Xia Yun'er along, he could not say it. After all, he still owed Xia Yun'er half a favor.

"You!!!"

That said, upon hearing what Chu Feng said, the male Starfall Holy Land disciples were all fuming with rage. They seemed to be shooting flames out of all of their noses, ears and mouths.

Likely, they were nearly about to die from anger because of Chu Feng.

As for Xia Yun'er, she smiled sweetly at Chu Feng's words. She said, "Since that's the case, young master Chu Feng should give it a try then."

Chapter 2784 - The Treacherous Holy Daughter

"Very well," Chu Feng did not hesitate. He retrieved the flying insects he needed from Xia Yun'er's flying insects and placed them into his own spirit formation.

After he gathered the required flying insects, the flying insects started to emit dazzling light. Their transformation was very obvious.

The insects were still alive and flying. However, those with good eyesight were all capable of telling that the flying insects had transformed into a living compass.

"Success! Big brother Chu Feng, you've succeeded. You are simply too amazing. Heavens, how did you manage to tell that these flying insects would become the key to Buried Spirit Lake once a sufficient amount of them were gathered?"

At that moment, the people that had been following Chu Feng the entire time were extremely excited. They felt it was simply a miracle.

Their reactions were understandable. After all, they had had no idea that the clues Chu Feng had obtained were related to the purple trees. That being said, even if they had obtained the clues Chu Feng had, they would not necessarily be able to realize that the flying insects were the key to Buried Spirit Lake.

"Young master Chu Feng, may I have a look?" Xia Yun'er asked.

"Of course."

Chu Feng did not think too much about Xia Yun'er's request, and directly handed the spirit formation containing the flying insects to her.

After Xia Yun'er received the spirit formation from Chu Feng, she began to carefully size it up.

"Young master Chu Feng is truly amazing," At that moment, Xia Yun'er revealed a brilliant smile on her face.

Her smiles were enchanting to begin with. however at that moment she was smiling brilliantly. She had completely fascinated the men present.

This was especially true for Li Xiang. Originally, his mood was very gloomy, as his cultivation had been crippled. However, after he saw Xia Yun'er's smile, he seemed to have forgotten the fact that his cultivation had been crippled and reacted with bliss.

However, Chu Feng noticed that Xia Yun'er's smile didn't seem to be a smile of joy for Chu Feng, nor did it seem like a smile of joy for everyone present. Instead, she seemed to be feeling joy for herself.

That's right, even though Xia Yun'er's smile was extremely brilliant and enchanting, Chu Feng noticed that it was a selfish smile.

"Young master Chu Feng, give me these flying insects. As long as you give me these flying insects, the debt between us will be settled."

Sure enough, it was exactly as Chu Feng had expected.

However, Chu Feng hadn't expected Xia Yun'er to use the half favor that he owed her as the demand.

Chu Feng was unable to understand this. After all, even if Xia Yun'er did not make such a request, Chu Feng was still planning to bring her to Buried Spirit Lake.

Thus, Chu Feng felt that this was a unnecessary request.

In fact, it was not only Chu Feng that was confused, the others were also confused. They did not know what sort of debt was present between Chu Feng and Xia Yun'er. However, they were completely confused as to why Xia Yun'er insisted on gaining possession of those flying insects.

"Miss Xia, why do you insist on possessing those flying insects?" Chu Feng asked.

"Could it be that young master Chu Feng didn't know that the power of Buried Spirit Lake has been growing weaker with every eruption?" Xia Yun'er asked.

"I've heard of that," Chu Feng said.

"In that case, young master Chu Feng, have you heard that the fewer the amount of people there are in Buried Spirit Lake, the more comprehension one will obtain?" Xia Yun'er asked with a beaming smile.

"This is the first time I've heard of that."

Chu Feng felt surprised. The others were also surprised. It seemed that it was not only Chu Feng that had never heard of that before; they too had not heard of such a thing.

"That is the truth. As such, I feel that the amount of people present here today is a bit too much," Xia Yun'er said.

At that moment, a disciple from the Immortal Armament Villa asked, "Miss Xia, what do you mean by that?"

"Could it be that you only plan to enter Buried Spirit Lake with the people from your Starfall Holy Land? Could it be that you want to cast us away?"

They were panicking because they were afraid that Xia Yun'er would not bring them along with her.

After all, they had seen the opportunity to reach Buried Spirit Lake. If they were to miss it just like that. It would be a bit too unfortunate. None of them wanted to miss such an opportunity.

However, Xia Yun'er acted as if she did not hear their questions at all. Instead, she looked to Chu Feng and said, "It would seem that young master Chu Feng does not wish to repay the half favor that you owe me."

"No, I merely want to know if miss Xia has considered things properly," Chu Feng asked.

"I have," Xia Yun'er said.

"Chu Feng, you must not do it. That is an opportunity that you've painstakingly obtained; how could you hand it over to her just like that?" Her Lady Queen said.

"Eggy, sooner or later, I must repay what I owe this Xia Yun'er. You also know how dangerous a person she is."

"If I miss this opportunity to enter Buried Spirit Lake, I can always find other opportunities in the future to help me reach a breakthrough in my world spirit techniques."

"However, if I can clear my relationship with this Xia Yun'er with this, I feel that it would be much more advantageous for me," Chu Feng said.

"You really feel that it is more beneficial than detrimental?" Her Lady Queen asked.

Her Lady Queen still did not want Chu Feng to miss such an opportunity. After all, entering Buried Spirit Lake was an opportunity that only came along once every ten years. Her Lady Queen felt that this opportunity was very hard to come by, and was even more precious than the natural energies Chu Feng had obtained from Xia Yun'er's spirit formation.

"I do think that it is more beneficial than detrimental," Chu Feng said.

"Since that's how you think, then just give it to her," Even though Her Lady Queen was unwilling, she was still respectful of Chu Feng's decision.

"It's yours. From now on, I, Chu Feng, do not owe you anything anymore," Chu Feng said.

"Very well," Xia Yun'er nodded her head. Then, she said to Chu Feng, "Young master Chu Feng, you've actually lost out on this."

"What you've obtained before was far inferior to this opportunity."

Xia Yun'er actually started to mock Chu Feng.

Chu Feng was not angered by her mockery. Instead, he smiled and said, "I actually know that."

"Since you knew, why did you still do this?" Xia Yun'er asked.

"I, Chu Feng, am not fond of owing others favors. I would feel more at ease after repaying your favor," Chu Feng said.

"Young master Chu Feng is truly amusing," Xia Yun'er smiled. Then, she actually walked over to Chu Feng. The distance between them was reduced to only half a meter.

Xia Yun'er placed her mouth beside Chu Feng's ears and spoke to him in a manner akin to a voice transmission, "It is actually not a coincidence that Yuwen Tingyi found Li Xiang. It is I who told him that Li Xiang was here."

Hearing those words, Chu Feng's eyes opened extremely wide. Anger emerged in his eyes.

It turned out that the reason why Li Xiang's cultivation was crippled and he nearly lost his life was because of Xia Yun'er.

"What's wrong? Are you angry? You couldn't be planning to kill me, right?"

"Actually, I merely told Yuwen Tingyi Li Xiang's location. Who would've thought that he would cripple Li Xiang's cultivation? That wasn't my intention either," Xia Yun'er said with a beaming smile.

With Xia Yun'er saying things in such a manner, Chu Feng grew even more furious.

Xia Yun'er was truly too treacherous. The reason for that was because if Chu Feng were to attack her merely because she told Yuwen Tingyi where Li Xiang was, the justification to attack her would be too far-fetched. After all, it was not her who injured Li Xiang.

That said, Chu Feng also knew very well that had it not been for her, Yuwen Tingyi might not have been able to find Li Xiang, and Li Xiang might not have had to suffer such a calamity. All of this was caused by Xia Yun'er.

Even though Chu Feng knew this was the case, he could not do anything to her. That was the reason why he felt so furious.

That said, even though Chu Feng was feeling extremely angry, he did not explode in rage. Instead, he forcibly contained his anger. Then, he asked, "Why did you do that? There is no benefit for you in doing that."

Chapter 2785 - Everyone Leaving

"I merely want you to know that my, Xia Yun'er's, possessions are not something that one can use for themselves."

After Xia Yun'er finished saying those words, she moved away from Chu Feng and smiled at him again. For Chu Feng, her current smile was very sinister and despicable.

"Woosh~~~"

Xia Yun'er soared into the sky and began to fly into the distance.

Seeing this, the disciples from the Starfall Holy Land hurriedly flew into the sky and began to follow after her.

However, at that moment, Xia Yun'er took out a paper talisman. After she used it, golden light and symbols covered her body. Her speed became extremely fast. In merely the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the distance. Even if Chu Feng were to unleash his full strength, he would not be able to catch up to her.

Under those circumstances, the people from the Starfall Holy Land were soon cast away by Xia Yun'er. Feeling helpless, they all stopped chasing after her. Dejected expressions filled their faces.

Likely, they had never imagined that Xia Yun'er would abandon them.

"Who would've thought that miss Xia was actually such a selfish individual? It was a mistake for me to think of her so sacredly before," Li Xiang said in a very furious manner.

Li Xiang didn't know that it was because of Xia Yun'er that Yuwen Tingyi had found him.

The reason for that was because what Xia Yun'er had said to Chu Feng was done through voice transmission. Thus, others were unable to hear it.

However, Xia Yun'er's action of enjoying Buried Spirit Lake by herself and casting away everyone else was sufficient enough to let Li Xiang have a whole new understanding of her.

"Bullshit Holy Daughter. She is what they call a poisonous beauty."

"That's right, her heart is truly poisonous. She is someone with no regard for others."

At that moment, Li Xiang's two buddies also began to lash out at Xia Yun'er.

A disciple from the Immortal Armament Villa sighed and advised them, "Three brothers, it is fine for you all to say those words here. However, you must not say those kinds of things once you leave this place. Not only will no one believe you, but you might even court troubles for yourselves,"

After hearing what that Immortal Armament Villa's disciple said, the people present all nodded their heads to express their agreement.

Xia Yun'er was not only the Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter. She was also the Holy Maiden in the hearts of countless men of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm.

If anyone dared to speak ill of her, they would end up suffering.

"Everyone, I am sorry. I have made you all follow me for so long in vain."

Chu Feng was feeling apologetic. After all, he had given Xia Yun'er the flying insects because he wanted to repay the debt that he owed her.

It was equivalent to Chu Feng betraying everyone's hopes and expectations.

"Brother Chu Feng, you must not say this sort of thing. You never had the obligation to bring us to Buried Spirit Lake to begin with. We are already extremely grateful that you did not consider us a burden, and were willing to bring us along."

"That's right. Brother Chu Feng, I've seen a lot of geniuses in the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm. I was also fortunate to meet some of the demon-level geniuses. However, you are most definitely the one that is easiest to get along with, and the most good-natured among all the geniuses."

At that moment, not only did not have the slightest intention of blaming Chu Feng, but instead, they were all very approving of Chu Feng's moral character.

"Buzz~~~"

Right at that moment, a pillar of light sudden appeared in the nearby distance and began to shine brightly in the forest.

"Isn't that the pillar that we used to enter this place? Why would it suddenly appear here?" The crowd was confused upon seeing this pillar of light.

At the moment when the crowd was confused, the voice of the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief was suddenly heard.

"I believe that all the little friends have realized how difficult the maze formation is right now. If there are people who do not wish to waste time and want to give up, you can leave the maze formation through the pillars."

After hearing that voice, the crowd finally realized what the pillars were for. It turned out that they were there to give them the opportunity to give up.

"Big brother Chu Feng, we will bring Li Xiang out first. After all, the elders might be able to help him," Li Xiang's two buddies said.

"Okay. You all go out then," Chu Feng voiced his agreement.

"Brother Chu Feng, we'll be taking our leave too. We will tell the elders what happened here after we get out. While we do not dare to guarantee anything else, our Sacred Pellet Villa will definitely be able to bring you out of here safely," The remaining disciples from the Sacred Pellet Villa said to Chu Feng.

"My thanks," Chu Feng clasped his fist toward them.

"Don't say it like that. Had it not been for Li Xiang, you wouldn't have crippled Yuwen Tingyi's cultivation," The Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples said.

After that, the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples began to enter the light pillar in succession.

Then, the Immortal Armament Villa's disciples also bid their farewells to Chu Feng and entered the light pillar.

One thing worthy of mentioning was that Yuwen Tingyi, whose cultivation was crippled by Chu Feng, also crawled all the way to the light pillar. He was also planning to leave. Likely, he was planning to find others outside to heal his injuries.

Chu Feng did not attempt to stop Yuwen Tingyi from leaving.

If Chu Feng had wanted to kill him, he would've done so earlier. The reason why Chu Feng didn't kill him was because Chu Feng felt that crippling his cultivation would bring about even greater suffering to Yuwen Tingyi than killing him.

After all, Yuwen Tingyi was extremely conceited. For someone like him, he would definitely grieve so much that he'd wish he was dead after losing his cultivation.

At the same moment. Outside the mountain. At the location where one could choose to enter either the maze formation or the training formation.

Han Yu was standing here. Although he had left the palace, he did not leave the area. Instead, he stayed here to wait for Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong.

It should be noted that apart from Han Yu, the elders and disciples from the various powers were also gathered here.

It turned out that the training formation's training time had concluded. Thus, the crowd had all returned there..

There were many more people gathered there at that moment than the amount of people that had been gathered in the palace hall earlier.

Furthermore, they were from all different powers. Moreover, the great majority of them were elders and experts.

Most importantly, several pillars of light had appeared in there and people from the younger generation were walking out from them nonstop.

It turned out that the light pillars were not bringing people back into the palace hall. Rather, they were bringing people directly to the plaza.

"Lord Elders!"

After Li Xiang and the other disciples from the Sacred Pellet Villa emerged from the pillars, they hurriedly shouted for their Sacred Pellet Villa's elders.

"What are you all making a big fuss about?" The elders from the Sacred Pellet Villa did not notice that something had happened to Li Xiang's cultivation. Thus, they reacted in a very displeased manner at the shouts from the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples.

"Lord Elders, Li Xiang's cultivation was crippled by another," A disciple from the Sacred Pellet Villa's group declared.

"What?!"

Hearing those words, the Sacred Pellet Villa's elders immediately had a major change in expression. They immediately rushed over to Li Xiang and began to diagnose his injuries.

"Damn it, someone actually did such a cruel and malicious thing! Who did this?!" The Sacred Pellet Villa's Elder Ma Changchun asked loudly.

From his reaction, it could be seen that he was not only extremely furious, but he was also feeling hurt for Li Xiang.

After all, Li Xiang was an outstanding disciple nurtured by their Sacred Pellet Villa. How could he not feel hurt upon seeing that Li Xiang's cultivation had been crippled?

"It was Yuwen Tingyi. It is Yuwen Tingyi who crippled Li Xiang's cultivation. Fortunately, Chu Feng came to Li Xiang's rescue and helped heal him. Otherwise, we fear that Li Xiang would not have been able to keep his current rank nine Martial Ancestor-level cultivation, and would've become an actual cripple," The Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples said.

"Nonsense! There is no grievance or hatred between our Young City Master and you all, why would he cripple his cultivation?"

There were elders from the Yuwen City among the people present as well. They had no idea what had happened in the palace hall or the mountain.

However, when they saw that the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples were stating that it was caused by their Young City Master, their first reaction was to declare it to be untrue.

Chapter 2786 - Hard To Accept

"This is the truth and not nonsense. We all can bear witness to it."

Right at that moment, the Immortal Armament Villa's disciples stood forth.

"Yuwen City, what else do you all have to say?!" The Sacred Pellet Villa's Elder Ma Changchun was still feeling furious. Thus, he pointed the spearhead of his anger to those Yuwen City's elders.

"Eh… it's a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding," The Yuwen City's elders started to panic.

The reason for their reaction was because even though their Yuwen City was quite strong, they were still much weaker compared to the Sacred Pellet Villa.

If their Young City Master really ended up doing something like this, it would really be difficult for their Yuwen City to provide an explanation to the Sacred Pellet Villa.

"So what if his cultivation is crippled? It could only be said that Li Xiang brought it upon himself," Right at that moment, Han Yu spoke.

Han Yu did not try to conceal his intention to stand beside Yuwen Tingyi in the matter that was clearly Yuwen Tingyi's fault.

"Han Yu, what do you mean by that?!" Elder Ma Changchun asked angrily.

"He shouldn't have slapped Yuwen Hualong ten thousand times inside the palace hall. Since he did that, he should be aware of the consequence of his actions," Han Yu said.

"Ten thousand slaps?" Many people present were bewildered upon hearing those words. After all, they had no idea what had happened in the palace hall.

"Lord Elders, this is what happened," Seeing the reaction of the people here, the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciple hurriedly started explaining things to their elders.

"It is Yuwen Hualong who lost his bet. Thus, it is only natural for him to be slapped. However, merely because of this, Yuwen Tingyi decided to cripple the cultivation of our sect's disciple. His actions were extremely malicious."

"Yuwen City, you all must provide us with an explanation regarding this matter," After finding out what had happened, Ma Changchun did not think there was any fault to Li Xiang's actions. He still wanted to obtain an explanation from the Yuwen City elders.

"Elder Ma, please curb your anger first. If this matter turns out to be true, we will definitely report this matter to Lord City Master. We will definitely provide your Sacred Pellet Villa with a satisfactory explanation."

The Yuwen City elders began to apologize repeatedly. After all, even though Li Xiang had slapped Yuwen Hualong ten thousand times, it remained that it was because Yuwen Hualong had lost his bet. Thus, Li Xiang could not be blamed for his actions.

However, if Yuwen Tingyi was to retaliate against Li Xiang and cripple his cultivation because of this, it would truly be excessive.

The people present were all able to distinguish between right and wrong. Thus, they were unable to refuse to admit that Yuwen Tingyi was in the wrong, and could only take the blame.

"Little friends from the Sacred Pellet Villa, you all mentioned that Chu Feng was also present?" Suddenly, the Yuwen City elders turned to ask the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples.

"That's right. What about it?" The Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples replied in an unpleasant manner.

"It's nothing. Merely, that Chu Feng is truly too excessive. If it wasn't for him, our Young City Master would not have done that sort of thing to that little friend."

"Thus, we truly hope that Young City Master will properly teach that Chu Feng a lesson," The Yuwen City elders said.

"You…" Hearing those words, the people from the Sacred Pellet Villa grew even more furious.

Those people from the Yuwen City were truly too excessive. Even though it was clearly Yuwen Tingyi who had started courting trouble, they had now shifted the blame onto Chu Feng.

Furthermore, judging from their appearance, they must've truly hoped that Yuwen Tingyi would teach Chu Feng a proper lesson.

Actually, this was precisely what the Yuwen City elders were thinking.

Furthermore, they felt that since Chu Feng had encountered Yuwen Tingyi and neither of them had shown up yet, it meant that Yuwen Tingyi must've attacked Chu Feng.

Even though they were feeling quite a headache from Yuwen Tingyi crippling Li Xiang's cultivation, they would be extremely satisfied if Yuwen Tingyi was to cripple Chu Feng's cultivation.

After all, it was all due to Chu Feng that Yuwen Tingyi and Yuwen Hualong had been humiliated.

They were hoping for Chu Feng's death from the bottoms of their hearts.

"Save me, quickly, save me!"

Right at thatvmoment, an incomparably miserable voice sounded from the direction of the pillars of light.

Turning toward the direction of the sound, the expressions of the crowd present all changed. This was especially true for the Yuwen City elders.

The reason for that was because the person who appeared was none other than Yuwen Tingyi. Merely, the current Yuwen Tingyi looked extremely miserable.

Not only was his body completely covered in injuries, but he had crawled out from the pillar of light. Furthermore, his cultivation was completely gone. The current Yuwen Tingyi was simply a cripple.

"Young City Master, what happened to you?"

Seeing Yuwen Tingyi looking like that, the people from Yuwen City all started to panic. They hurriedly arrived before Yuwen Tingyi and began to set up healing formations to help heal his injuries. Those elders were feeling so pained upon seeing the current Yuwen Tingyi that they even started shedding tears.

After all, Yuwen Tingyi was not an ordinary character. Instead, he was their Young City Master, the future successor to their Yuwen City.

"Brother Tingyi, who crippled your cultivation? Could it be that… the Ancient Era's Serpent Clansmen decided to help Chu Feng against you?" Han Yu arrived before Yuwen Tingyi and began to question him.

From what the Sacred Pellet Villa's disciples had said, he knew that Chu Feng, Li Xiang and Yuwen Tingyi had encountered one another.

Han Yu knew very well that Yuwen Tingyi crippling Li Xiang's cultivation was merely a first, and that Chu Feng was the actual target. Thus, Han Yu felt that Yuwen Tingyi must've fought against Chu Feng.

Han Yu felt that it would be impossible for Chu Feng to be a match for Yuwen Tingyi. Thus, it would be impossible for Yuwen Tingyi's cultivation to be crippled by Chu Feng.

In that case, someone must've helped Chu Feng. The only people Han Yu could think of that could help Chu Feng cripple Yuwen Tingyi's cultivation were the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan.

With a crumbling voice, Yuwen Tingyi shouted frantically, "No, it was Chu Feng! All of this was done by him!"

The crowd present were extremely surprised upon hearing Yuwen Tingyi's frantic shout.

"What?! Chu Feng?!"

Hearing what Yuwen Tingyi said, the Yuwen City elders were all stunned. They simply did not dare to believe what they had just heard.

Just a while ago, they were still hoping that Yuwen Tingyi would teach Chu Feng a lesson. How could it be that Yuwen Tingyi was the one taught a lesson by Chu Feng?

This was not something that they had hoped for at all.

"Brother Tingyi, are you certain of that? Chu Feng is only a rank two True Immortal, how could he cripple your cultivation?" Han Yu asked.

"He concealed his cultivation. His actual cultivation is not that of a rank two True Immortal, but rather a rank three True Immortal. Adding on his Divine level Lightning Mark and that strange secret skill, I was simply no match for him."

At that moment, tears actually filled Yuwen Tingyi's face. He had an extremely malevolent expression on his face. It would appear that having his cultivation crippled was something that was extremely hard for him to accept.

Seeing such a Yuwen Tingyi, the Sacred Pellet Villa's elders that were originally planning to obtain an explanation from the Yuwen City elders found it difficult to approach them.

After all, no matter how miserable Li Xiang was, he had still managed to preserve his cultivation at rank nine Martial Ancestor. With Li Xiang's talent, he would sooner or later become a True Immortal again.

However, Yuwen Tingyi's cultivation was completely crippled. Even though he could continue to cultivate, he would have to start from the beginning again. Furthermore, the damage to his dantian was extremely serious. In the future, his cultivation speed would definitely not be the same as it was before.

Likely, he would lose his title as a genius among the younger generations.

Chapter 2787 - Searching For Another Method

"Chu Feng, our Yuwen City and you cannot exist together!!!"

"We will definitely settle this debt of blood with blood!!!"

Suddenly, the Yuwen City's elders shouted with overflowing killing intent.

At that moment, everyone realized that the Yuwen City elders were not joking around. After all, Yuwen Tingyi was their Yuwen City's Young City Master, a person with a very special status.

Meanwhile, Chu Feng had no idea what was happening outside.

After the people from the Immortal Armament Villa left, Chu Feng did not rush to leave immediately. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to ponder.

"If you attempt to find more flying insects now, it will likely be too late. Chu Feng, what do you have in mind now?" Her Lady Queen asked.

"Indeed, it'll be too late. The amount of flying insects is finite. I already captured the great majority of them. Even if I am to try to capture them again, I would not be able to gather a sufficient amount. Otherwise, Xia Yun'er would not have needed the flying insects I captured," Chu Feng said.

"In that case, do you think you still have a chance?" Her Lady Queen asked.

"I can't be certain. Merely, I am unwilling to give up just like this. Perhaps… there is another method."

As Chu Feng spoke, he took out all of the purple gemstones he had obtained so far and placed them on the ground.

Chu Feng stared at the gemstones and surveyed them for a very long time. However, he was still unable to find anything in particular regarding them.

Seeing that the one day time limit was soon to arrive, seeing that Buried Spirit Lake was soon to erupt, Chu Feng grew more and more impatient.

Suddenly, Chu Feng stood up and extended his palm. A blade formed by spirit power extended from Chu Feng's palm.

Then, Chu Feng waved the spirit formation blade and sliced it at the gemstones on the ground.

"Woosh, woosh~~~"

As the blade moved back and forth, the purple gemstones started to swirl in the air. Those gemstones were being sliced into pieces by Chu Feng.

"Chu Feng, what are you doing?"

"Don't be this stirred up by your emotions. Didn't you say that there would definitely be other opportunities in this Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, that even if you miss this opportunity, there will be another one?"

Seeing Chu Feng slicing the gemstones, Her Lady Queen thought that Chu Feng was acting out of helplessness and venting his feelings onto the gemstones. Fearing that Chu Feng might lose himself, she quickly urged him to stop.

"Haha…" Hearing Her Lady Queen persuading him, Chu Feng immediately stopped, and even laughed.

Hearing Chu Feng's laughter, a confused expression emerged in Her Lady Queen's beautiful eyes.

The reason for that was because Chu Feng's laughter did not resemble the laughter of someone driven by anger and impatience. Rather, his laughter was very relaxed.

"Eggy, you don't have to worry. I am not venting myself on these gemstones. I am merely attempting something very stupid," Chu Feng said.

"Something very stupid? What sort of thing is that? Let this Queen hear about it," Her Lady Queen said.

"When a sufficient amount of flying insects are gathered, they will turn into a compass leading to Buried Spirit Lake."

"I think that if one is to gather a sufficient amount of these gemstones, then perhaps they will also be able to guide me to Buried Spirit Lake," Chu Feng said.

"Haha, this Queen understands now. Due to the fact that the amount of purple trees are limited, it would be impossible for you to gather a sufficient amount of complete gemstones. Thus, you planned to cut these gemstones into pieces to reach the required amount," Her Lady Queen said with a laugh.

The reason why she laughed was because it was as Chu Feng had said, this was a foolish method. However, she felt that Chu Feng's method was feasible.

Actually, Her Lady Queen was feeling admiration for Chu Feng. At the very least, Chu Feng had managed to think of a way in this helpless situation.

"Milady Queen, it seems that you also feel that this method of mine is feasible, right?" Chu Feng asked.

"Feasible, of course it's feasible. Go on and continue with it," Her Lady Queen said.

"I'll continue on then," As Chu Feng spoke, he once again began to brandish his spirit formation blade.

As Chu Feng was cutting the gemstones with a spirit formation blade, those gemstones would only be sliced into smaller pieces and not destroyed when they encountered the spirit formation blade.

Chu Feng was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he sliced the gemstones into the required amount.

"Buzz~~~"

A shocking scene occurred. When the gemstones were sliced into enough pieces, they actually started to shine brightly. The next moment, they started to fuse with one another.

In the blink of an eye, the gemstones also turned into a compass.

"Heavens! Chu Feng, you've succeeded! That method of yours was actually feasible!" Her Lady Queen shouted in astonishment upon seeing this scene.

Chu Feng was actually also extremely astonished. He had truly never expected his foolish method to actually end up working.

Chu Feng picked the compass up and inspected it carefully. He discovered that the appearance of that compass was different from the compass formed by the flying insects. However, it was pointing in the same direction. This meant that the compass was indeed capable of guiding Chu Feng to Buried Spirit Lake.

"I wonder, what sort of reaction that poisonous woman Xia Yun'er will have when she sees me in Buried Spirit Lake?" Chu Feng said with a smile.

"Who cares what sort of reaction she will have? After all, there won't be anyone else in Buried Spirit Lake. If you are to encounter her, just strip off all her clothes and then take away her first time. You can consider that revenge for Li Xiang," Her Lady Queen said.

"Woah! Milady Queen, you're also a woman; how could you think of such a malicious thing to do?" Chu Feng asked with a beaming smile on his face.

"It is precisely because I am a woman that I know how painful it will be should a woman's first time be forcibly taken away by someone."

"This is especially true for a woman like Xia Yun'er. With how vicious yet conceited she is, she will definitely view her first time with great importance."

"Thus, if you are to take away her first time, it would be even more painful for her than having her cultivation crippled," Her Lady Queen said with a mischievous smile.

"It's better to forget about it. Back then, I was young and did that sort of thing to Yan Ruyu and the others. Because of that, I felt guilty and ashamed the entire time. I do not wish to make that sort of mistake again," Chu Feng said.

"You're still unable to let go of the three of them? It's alright, this Queen has a feeling that the three of them are fine. Perhaps you will meet them again very soon."

"Not only them, but Su Rou and Su Mei are also most definitely going to be fine too," Her Lady Queen said.

"I will take Milady Queen's lucky words," Chu Feng smiled. Then, holding the compass in hand, Chu Feng began to proceed toward the direction indicated by the compass.

Chu Feng noticed that the direction indicated by the compass was changing nonstop. It simply seemed like it was pointing at random.

However, it was also precisely because the compass was changing directions nonstop that Chu Feng felt that it was useful.

After all, this seemingly normal mountain was actually a complicated maze. All kinds of bewilderment formations were present all over the mountain. If one was to follow one's logic, one would definitely not be able to leave the mountain.

Meanwhile, as Chu Feng left in the direction indicated by the compass, two figures emerged from the void at the location where Chu Feng had sliced the purple gemstones to smaller pieces.

Those two people were actually the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief and the elder that had helped Chu Feng deliberately make things difficult for Han Yu earlier.

Chapter 2788 - Entering The Water Naked

"Lord Clan Chief, it seems that you are very fond of this Chu Feng," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Why do you say that?" The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief asked.

"That's because this is the first time that this subordinate has ever seen you creating a shortcut for someone," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

His words revealed the mystery.

It turned out that it was not because Chu Feng's stupid method was actually effective.

Rather, it was due to this Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief secretly helping Chu Feng.

"I have always been one to look down on the human race's brats, for they are simply too selfish, and have no regard for others. They are even more inhumane than us monstrous beasts."

"However, this brat by the name of Chu Feng actually made me feel a whole new level of respect toward him. Thus, I decided that I might as well help him this once."

"Merely, that Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter is not as simple as this Chu Feng has seen."

"That girl is very dangerous. If Chu Feng is to encounter her in Buried Spirit Lake, he might have to face more dangers."

"However, Buried Spirit Lake is a strange place. No spirit formations can be set up there. We are unable to see what happens there."

"Because of that, and the fact that we are not allowed to approach Buried Spirit Lake when it is opened to the public, we will not know should something happen to Chu Feng, and will not be able to help him either."

"Because of that, he can only rely on himself in there," The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief said.

"That brat Chu Feng seemed to be very quick-witted. Furthermore, he is not weak either. Even if that Xia Yun'er wants to take care of him, it is not necessarily true that he will not be able to handle her. Thus, Lord Clan Chief, you need not worry about that," That Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's elder said.

"Worry?" The Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's Clan Chief laughed. Then, he said, "It is one thing to think highly of someone. However, as for his life and death, it is completely unrelated to me."

Meanwhile. Xia Yun'er was holding the flying insect compass and rapidly proceeding toward Buried Spirit Lake.

She soon managed to pass through the vast forest and arrived at a stone forest.

At that moment, the stone forest was growing denser and denser with more stones. The size of the stones was also becoming larger and larger.

Those stones were somewhat special. One could not see through them regardless of what sort of ability one might use. With all those enormous stones blocking one's path, one simply could not see ahead.

Being inside that stone forest, one would feel uneasy.

Compared to the vast forest, this place resembled a maze even more.

However, the more this was the case, the more joyous Xia Yun'er felt. Although Xia Yun'er had only revealed herself to the people of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm for a short period of time, it was actually not her first time in the Spirit Formation Immortal Domain or Buried Spirit Lake.

As such, Xia Yun'er was very familiar with that vast mountain. She knew very well that she would arrive at Buried Spirit Lake after passing through this stone forest.

Finally, Xia Yun'er successfully passed through the stone forest. After she did, her speed grew much slower.

The reason for that was because a lake had appeared before her field of view. That lake was not very large, and did not seem particularly special. However, the lake's water was extremely clear.

As for that lake, it was Buried Spirit Lake.

At that moment, an enchanting smile was present on Xia Yun'er's exquisite little face. She was feeling joy from the bottom of her heart.

After all, what she had said to Chu Feng earlier, the fact that one would obtain more comprehension the fewer people there were in Buried Spirit Lake, was true.

As such, she knew very well what sort of comprehension she would obtain by being the only person here.

"My thanks."

Right at that moment, a pleasant yet cold-sounding voice sounded from behind Xia Yun'er.

Xia Yun'er was immediately alerted upon hearing that voice. Subconsciously, she took out her two silver swords.

Those two silver swords were Xia Yun'er's Incomplete Immortal Armaments.

With her Incomplete Immortal Armaments in hand, Xia Yun'er did not say anything, and directly brandished her weapons to slash behind her.

"Woosh, woosh~~~"

In an instant, two blade rays were shot behind her with an extremely fast speed.

However, after her slashes were sent forth, Xia Yun'er discovered that there was simply no one behind her.

"You don't have to be this nervous. After all, it is you who brought me here. Thus, I will not drive you out of here."

Right at the moment when Xia Yun'er was surprised, that voice sounded once again. Merely, this time around, that voice sounded from the direction of Buried Spirit Lake.

Xia Yun'er did not attack rashly again. Instead, she turned around and cast her gaze over. She wanted to see exactly who it was.

When Xia Yun'er saw who it was, not only did she relax, but she also smiled.

The reason for that was because that person was someone that Xia Yun'er knew. She was the Chu Heavenly Clan's young miss with an extraordinary status, Chu Lingxi.

"I guess this is what they mean by the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Lady Chu Lingxi, you have truly made me have a whole new level of realization and respect for you," Xia Yun'er said.

It was only at that moment that Xia Yun'er realized that Chu Lingxi must've been secretly following her the entire time.

Merely, she had not been aware of Chu Lingxi's presence in the slightest. Thus, it came as an enormous surprise and a slight disappointment for her.

She was not feeling disappointed because she was unable to enjoy Buried Spirit Lake by herself.

It was because she had anticipated that she would be the final victor after obtaining the flying insect compass from Chu Feng. Yet now, it would appear that the final victor was Chu Lingxi.

That was the reason why she was disappointed.

"I had originally thought that the Starfall Holy Land's Holy Daughter would be a kindhearted woman akin to celestial fairies."

Chu Lingxi smiled lightly. Her smile was extremely beautiful. Then, she looked to Xia Yun'er and said, "Miss Xia has also made me feel a whole new level of respect."

"As the saying goes, every man for himself. In my opinion, even celestial fairies should act like this," Xia Yun'er said.

"I do not disagree with that," Chu Lingxi said.

"In that case, it would mean that Lady Chu Lingxi and I are kindred spirits?" Xia Yun'er asked.

Chu Lingxi smiled. Her smile was very clean and pure, like the water of Buried Spirit Lake.

It would be hard for ordinary individuals to see through her smile.

However, Xia Yun'er managed to see through her smile. It was precisely because she saw through Chu Lingxi's smile that her eyebrows narrowed slightly.

She had managed to see a trace of ridicule from Chu Lingxi's smile. Chu Lingxi… was not fond of Xia Yun'er.

That said, Xia Yun'er was also not fond of Chu Lingxi. However, even though she did not like Chu Lingxi, there was nothing she could do. Instead, she must appear as if she liked her.

Disregarding their status, merely in terms of strength, Chu Lingxi was not someone that the current Xia Yun'er could take on.

As for Chu Lingxi, she also knew very well that Xia Yun'er could not pose any threat to her. Thus, even though she knew that Xia Yun'er was a poisonous woman behind her celestial fairy-like beauty, she was not afraid of her at all.

"It's almost time," Chu Lingxi said.

Her body shifted. Like a celestial fairy, she landed beautifully in Buried Spirit Lake.

After she entered Buried Spirit Lake and saw that Xia Yun'er was still not coming in, Chu Lingxi was confused. Thus, she turned around and looked to Xia Yun'er.

Seeing the current Xia Yun'er, Chu Lingxi shouted, "What are you doing?! Have you gone insane?!"

The reason for this was because Xia Yun'er was currently undressing. Soon, she had stripped herself completely naked.

At that moment, Xia Yun'er's practically perfect body appeared before Chu Lingxi in a completely unmasked manner.

Fortunately, Chu Lingxi was a woman. Otherwise, if it was a man that saw such a scene they would definitely not be able to withstand that sort of enticement.

"Lady Chu Lingxi, have you not heard that one will obtain greater comprehension after entering Buried Spirit Lake naked?" Xia Yun'er had a pleasant smile on her face as she walked toward Chu Lingxi.

"This is Buried Spirit Lake, it is the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan's territory. Are you not afraid that the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan will be monitoring this place right now? Are you not afraid that your body will be seen by them?" Chu Lingxi said.

Chapter 2789 - A Scream

"Could it be that Lady Chu Lingxi hasn't heard of the fact that there are special powers enveloping Buried Spirit Lake, making it so that one cannot set up spirit formations here?"

"Moreover, the Ancient Era's Serpent Clan has a rule. That is, when Buried Spirit Lake is open to the public, they will never set foot inside."

"As for the others, they are simply unable to reach here."

"The reason for that is because the flying insects were practically all captured by Chu Feng. Even if others are to discover the key to reaching this place, they will have no opportunity to actually come here," Xia Yun'er said. She was very confident.

As she spoke, she gracefully entered the lake bare naked.

"Do whatever you want," Chu Lingxi left those words and then proceeded further into Buried Spirit Lake on her own.

Seeing that, Xia Yun'er smiled charmingly. Then, she followed after Chu Lingxi, and also proceeded further into Buried Spirit Lake. Soon, she caught up to Chu Lingxi.

Although one must indeed soak one's body completely in the lake in order to obtain comprehension in Buried Spirit Lake, the origin of Buried Spirit Lake was definitely not as simple as the rumors had.

A lot of people had indeed died there. The depths of Buried Spirit Lake were truly an underwater cemetery.

Regardless of what level one's cultivation might be, as long as one crossed over to where one shouldn't, one would die in Buried Spirit Lake and never return.

No one knew where the boundary was. Thus, Chu Lingxi and Xia Yun'er did not dare to enter too deep either.

"Lady Chu Lingxi, I am not lying to you. After removing one's clothes, one will truly be able to comprehend the mysteriousness of Buried Spirit Lake more easily."

"You and I are both women, there is no need for you to be embarrassed. You should also remove your clothes," Xia Yun'er said to Chu Lingxi.

"Regardless of men or women, I've never had a habit of being naked before anyone," Chu Lingxi said.

"I'm fine with women. As for men, I too have never shown myself naked before any of them," Xia Yun'er said.

"Is that so? In that case, if a man were to enter this place and just so happened to see your naked body, what would you do?" Chu Lingxi asked curiously.

"Regardless of who it might be, as long as it's a man that doesn't have my permission to see me naked that saw me naked, I will first dig out his eyes, and then cut out his tongue. After that, I will dismember his body into ten thousand pieces," Xia Yun'er said.

"Why dig out the eyes first and then cut out the tongue before killing him? Wouldn't it be more simple to just kill him directly?" Chu Lingxi asked.

"He shall be punished for seeing what he shouldn't have," Xia Yun'er said.

Hearing those words, Chu Lingxi revealed a faint smile on her face.

She became even more certain that Xia Yun'er was a ruthless woman.

However, Chu Lingxi did not dislike ruthless women. After all, from a certain viewpoint, she too was a ruthless woman.

"Lady Chu Lingxi, it is about to erupt now. You should close your eyes, concentrate and wait for the arrival of the eruption. It will help you better obtain comprehension," Xia Yun'er said.

"Could it be that it's not the first time you've been here? You actually managed to tell that the eruption is about to come from the ripples in the water?" Chu Lingxi was surprised.

"It would seem that is is also not the first time that Lady Chu Lingxi has been here? In that case, my advice earlier was not needed," Xia Yun'er said.

At that moment, Chu Lingxi and Xia Yun'er looked at one another and smiled. They felt that since the two of them were both people with secrets, there was no need for them to question one another further.

After that, the two of them closed their eyes and began to set up a formation within their palms. That formation was to be used during the eruption. It would help one obtain better comprehension in the lake.

Due to the fact that the two of them were focused on waiting for the arrival of the eruption, they did not notice that a figure had managed to pass through the stone forest and was approaching Buried Spirit Lake.

As for that person, it was naturally Chu Feng.

"That should be Buried Spirit Lake, right?" Her Lady Queen asked.

"I think so," At that moment, Chu Feng also had a joyous expression on his face. In the end, he had not made this journey in vain.

"However, why is Xia Yun'er nowhere to be seen?" Her Lady Queen asked.

"This lake's water is special. Even though it appears to be extremely clear, one is simply unable to see what happens below. Xia Yun'er… should be deep underneath the water," Chu Feng analyzed.

"That girl is extremely shrewd. There are most definitely benefits for her to go deep underwater. Chu Feng, you should go deep underwater too," Her Lady Queen said.

"Mn, that was also my thought," As spoke, he leapt into the air and entered Buried Spirit Lake.

Chu Feng felt that Xia Yun'er should know more about the secrets concerning Buried Spirit Lake. Thus, the location where Xia Yun'er stayed should be more beneficial to comprehending the mysteries of Buried Spirit Lake.

Thus, after Chu Feng entered Buried Spirit Lake, he continued to dive down the entire time. His intention was to find Xia Yun'er.

However, not long after Chu Feng dove into the lake, he stopped. At the same time, Chu Feng's eyes were opened extremely wide. Disbelief filled his eyes.

Chu Feng was looking downward. He saw two people down below. They were Chu Lingxi and Xia Yun'er.

Chu Feng only knew that Xia Yun'er had entered Buried Spirit Lake before him. He had never expected for Chu Lingxi to be there too.

Although Chu Lingxi being there was a surprise to Chu Feng, it was not enough to make Chu Feng react in such a manner.

The reason for Chu Feng's reaction was Xia Yun'er.

After all, the current Xia Yun'er was completely naked; she was not wearing anything at all.

Her perfect body and flawless skin were completely exposed to Chu Feng's line of sight.

Her perfect body underneath the water was simply akin to the most beautiful scenery.

"Woah. Although that girl is a sinister and treacherous individual, her skin, figure and overall appearance are truly excellent."

"Mn, this Queen determines that Xia Yun'er's reputation as one of the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm's Three Great Beauties is well-deserved."

Her Lady Queen shared Chu Feng's sight and hearing. Thus, she saw everything that Chu Feng saw.

At that moment, Her Lady Queen had a mischievous smile on her face. She knew that with Xia Yun'er's personality, she would definitely feel extremely ashamed should she know that her naked body was exposed to Chu Feng.

Likely, this would be something extremely painful for Xia Yun'er.

Even though this was merely a coincidence and not something that Chu Feng did deliberately, it could still be considered as Chu Feng having obtained his revenge. As such, Her Lady Queen would naturally be cheerful.

After seeing Xia Yun'er's naked body, Chu Feng was truly astonished.

Perhaps because he hadn't seen such a charming body in such a long time, Chu Feng was actually stunned.

In that sort of circumstance, Chu Feng's natural male instinct actually revealed itself. Thus, Chu Feng did not say anything, but started to concentratedly size up Xia Yun'er.

The more he looked, the more fond of Xia Yun'er's body Chu Feng became. Unable to contain himself, Chu Feng swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Gulp~~~"

The gulping sound alarmed Xia Yun'er and Chu Lingxi, whose eyes were closed.

Neither one of them had ever imagined that someone would appear in this place. Thus, they subconsciously opened their eyes and glanced upward.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

The next moment, a sharp scream was heard.

That scream was filled with terror, fear and embarrassment.

It was Xia Yun'er. When Xia Yun'er saw Chu Feng standing in the nearby water staring at her with shining eyes, her face instantly turned deep red, and even her fair skin reddened.

After that scream, Xia Yun'er's body immediately moved. She rapidly dove deeper into the water.

Chapter 2790 - The Furious Xia Yun'er

"Cough, cough. Miss Xia, I didn't see anything. You don't have to be nervous."

Seeing Xia Yun'er's reaction, Chu Feng felt a bit embarrassed. Subconsciously, he lied and said he didn't see anything.

"Even if you're lying, you should plan your lies properly. You said you didn't see anything, then what is with your body's reaction?" Chu Lingxi pointed at Chu Feng's crotch.

It was only after hearing what Chu Lingxi said that Chu Feng noticed a certain region on his body was reacting like an awakened beast.

Perhaps that ferocious beast was too powerful. Even though Chu Feng was clearly wearing pants, the ferocious beast's might was still unable to be stopped. Even with his pants on, that awakened beast was still completely obvious.

As such, even Chu Lingxi had noticed the change that had occurred to Chu Feng's body.

Chu Feng coughed. "It's due to holding back my piss. You wouldn't understand, it's very difficult for men to hold back their urge to pee."

Chu Feng laughed awkwardly as he adjusted his pants to make his awakened beast not so obvious.

Seeing Chu Feng reacting like this, Chu Lingxi covered her mouth and laughed.

Even though Chu Feng explained it in a deadpan manner, Chu Lingxi knew very well that Chu Feng's explanation was something that only fools would believe.

"Bang~~~"

Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded from below. Following that, a large wave of water surged forth violently from below.

At that moment, Chu Feng's gaze immediately turned serious. He was able to sense a very powerful killing intent from below.

"Chu Feng, I'm going to kill you!"

Following that, Xia Yun'er's furious shout was heard.

Soon, she reappeared before Chu Feng.

Not only was Xia Yun'er fully clothed, but she was also holding two silver swords in her hands. Furthermore, a furious expression covered her face.

Seeing the current Xia Yun'er, Chu Feng realized one thing: even beautiful women would appear to a bit frightening when their face was filled with anger and killing intent.

Most important of all would be Xia Yun'er's current aura.

Chu Feng clearly remembered that Xia Yun'er's cultivation had been that of a rank one True Immortal when he first met her.

However, the aura Xia Yun'er was currently emitting was that of a rank four True Immortal.

"This girl, could it be that she concealed her cultivation from the very start?"

Chu Feng was very surprised. That said, he also became serious.

Thus, not only did Chu Feng immediately unleash his Divine-level Lightning Mark to increase his cultivation, but he also took out his Divine Dragon's Blood Ruler.

"Woosh, woosh, woosh~~~"

Xia Yun'er's dual swords were being thrust forth repeatedly. Blade rays that blazed gold began to shoot toward Chu Feng.

It was not an ordinary attack. Rather, it was a Taboo Martial Skill.

That being said, Chu Feng was absolutely not one to be trifled with either. Chu Feng brandished his Divine Dragon's Blood Ruler repeatedly and blocked all the incoming blade rays.

"Buzz~~~"

An ear-piercing sound was heard. Then, Xia Yun'er's dual swords were thrust toward Chu Feng.

Xia Yun'er's speed was simply too fast. She had arrived before Chu Feng the moment he finished blocking her sword rays.

As Xia Yun'er's Incomplete Immortal Armaments were coming at Chu Feng head-on this time around, they were even more powerful.

As such, how could Chu Feng possibly dare to attempt to dodge the incoming attack? He immediately swung forth his Divine Dragon's Blood Ruler to block.

Sparks splattered about everywhere, and energy ripples surged forth. The water in the lake was overturned by the battle between the two.

At that moment, Chu Feng and Xia Yun'er began to fight one another head-on using their respective Incomplete Immortal Armaments.

Chu Feng's ability in close-range fighting had always been extremely excellent among people of his generation. It could be said that he had never met his rival.

However, as he fought Xia Yun'er, Chu Feng started to feel that he had met his rival.

Xia Yun'er's swordplay was extremely sharp. Her swords were like two silver dragons that would become fierce and powerful from time to time.

It was as if those two swords were simply not Incomplete Immortal Armaments, but rather Xia Yun'er herself. It was as if they had already fused with her. Her mastery over her weapons could simply be said to be perfection.

Fortunately, Chu Feng was not one to be trifled with either. Thus, no matter how sharp Xia Yun'er's attacks might be, regardless of how fatal they were, Chu Feng was still capable of blocking them.

"Miss Xia, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding," While blocking Xia Yun'er's attacks, Chu Feng tried to explain himself.

After all, at that moment, Chu Feng truly felt Xia Yun'er's killing intent. He knew that she was not joking around. That girl was truly planning to kill him.

However, what was the power behind Xia Yun'er? It was the Starfall Holy Land, the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm's huge monster, inferior to only the Chu Heavenly Clan.

Although Xia Yun'er was a dangerous character, she and Chu Feng were not irreconcilable enemies.

Although Xia Yun'er was the mastermind behind what had happened to Li Xiang, it remained that it was not her who had crippled Li Xiang's cultivation.

Chu Feng naturally wanted to avenge Li Xiang. However, he felt that it was not time yet. Furthermore, he did not feel that there was a need to kill Xia Yun'er either.

At the very least, before Chu Feng could withstand the Starfall Holy Land, he could not become bitter enemies with Xia Yun'er.

That was the reason why Chu Feng was trying so hard to explain himself.

"Misunderstanding? Fine, dig out your own eyes, cut off your own tongue and then bring forth your life. Do that, and I'll believe that it's a misunderstanding," Even the tone with which Xia Yun'er spoke had changed.

She was no longer hypocritical like before. The current her was the most dangerous, most unreasonable and most murderous. She had completely unleashed her fierceness and viciousness at that moment.

In other words, this was the actual Xia Yun'er.

Thus, no matter what Chu Feng tried to say, it would be useless. The current Xia Yun'er only had a single thought in mind: killing Chu Feng.

"Don't do that. Miss Xia, aren't we friends? You were the one who said we were friends."

"Since you said that we're friends, how could you want to do all those things to me just because I happened to see you naked?"

"Moreover, it's not like I did it on purpose. If it wasn't for the fact that you'd taken off all your clothes, I wouldn't have seen you naked either."

"Oh, that's right, why did you take off all your clothes? Why can't you be like Chu Lingxi and stay inside the water properly? Why must you have a strange hobby of undressing after entering the water?" Chu Feng said.

"You!!!"

"Chu Feng, I will tear your mouth apart!"

After hearing what Chu Feng said, Xia Yun'er grew even more furious.

"Huu, huu, huu~~~"

At that moment, Chu Feng noticed that cyan flames were actually being emitted from Xia Yun'er's body.

The cyan flames were wiggling and transforming. Like armor, the flames enveloped Xia Yun'er's body as they continued to burn.

Even though those were clearly flames, they showed no sign of dying out even though they were in water.

The flames were also not emitting heat. Instead, they were emitting a bone-chilling aura that filled the deep water with cold.

This was especially true when being in such close proximity to her. Chu Feng was able to feel with great certainty how cold those flames were.

Seeing this scene, Chu Feng immediately unleashed his trump card, the Ancient Era's War Sword.

Chu Feng had fought against Xia Yun'er once before. Thus, he knew that this was Xia Yun'er's Divine Power.

Xia Yun'er was extremely talented, and her Divine Power was also extremely powerful. It was not as simple as merely increasing one's battle power. Instead, her Divine Power was capable of increasing her cultivation by an entire level.

Sure enough, after the cyan flames appeared, Xia Yun'er's aura increased from rank four True Immortal to rank five True Immortal.

She thrust forth one of her swords. Its might was even stronger. Chu Feng was simply unable to block it.

Fortunately, Chu Feng had already unleashed his Ancient Era's War Sword, one of his trump cards.

Thus, before Xia Yun'er's sword could reach Chu Feng's body, it was blocked by the Ancient Era's War Sword.

"Buzz~~~"

Controlled by Chu Feng, the Ancient Era's War Sword started to shine brightly with golden light. Its light illuminated the deep dark water.

Then, the Ancient Era's War Sword also began to enlarge in size. It was growing larger and larger.

Under that sort of situation, Xia Yun'er was forced further and further away from Chu Feng by the Ancient Era's War Sword.

"Ahhh!!!!"

Suddenly, Xia Yun'er let out a scream.

Rather than calling it a scream, it would be more accurate to call it a furious shout.

"Crap!"

Seeing the current Xia Yun'er, Chu Feng started to frown, and shouted, 'oh no' in his heart.

Chapter 2791 - Chu Feng's No Match

Chu Feng noticed that it was not only cyan flames that enveloped Xia Yun'er's body, but silvery light was also being emitted from her body.

That silvery light was not only dazzling, but the aura it emitted was also very powerful. That powerful aura was the reason why Chu Feng felt that the situation was bad.

Chu Feng had felt this sensation before. It was from Chu Xianshuo's Immortal Technique. The ability that Xia Yun'er was using right now was an Immortal Technique.

Seeing that the situation was bad, Chu Feng immediately unleashed his Ancient Era's War Axe. Chu Feng felt that he would likely not be able to block Xia Yun'er's Immortal Technique should he rely on only the Ancient Era's War Sword.

After the Ancient Era's War Axe appeared, it did not rush to attack Xia Yun'er. Instead, it actually joined the Ancient Era's War Sword and protected Chu Feng within it.

"Immortal Technique: Skyfill Silvery Light!!!"

Right at that moment, Xia Yun'er let out a shout. She clasped her palms together and unleashed her Immortal Technique at Chu Feng.

"Woosh, woosh, woosh~~~"

The next moment, like the tide, boundless silvery light started to bombard Chu Feng. Soon, the silvery light completely swallowed the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe.

"Boom, boom, boom~~~"

Rumbles were sounding nonstop. The silvery light was so dazzling that Chu Feng was unable to open his eyes as they bombarded him from all directions.

The force of the bombardment was no small matter. Even though Chu Feng was being protected by both the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe, he was still able to sense intense vibrations.

From this, it could be seen that Xia Yun'er's Immortal Technique was extremely powerful. At the very least, it was much more powerful than the Immortal Technique Chu Xianshuo had used back then.

That said, regardless of how powerful Immortal Techniques might be, they were still restrained by their cooldown time. After a while, the Immortal Technique Xia Yun'er had used stopped its bombardment of Chu Feng and began to dissipate.

After the Immortal Technique dissipated, Chu Feng heaved a long sigh of relief.

The Immortal Technique Xia Yun'er had used was simply too powerful. If its bombardment had continued, Chu Feng would likely not have been able to persist in his defense. After all, using both the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe simultaneously put an enormous burden on Chu Feng.

Fortunately, that Immortal Technique ended. Furthermore, as Immortal Techniques could only be used once within a certain period of time, Chu Feng felt that the battle between him and Xia Yun'er would end with that.

When Xia Yun'er saw that Chu Feng was actually unscathed, the anger in her eyes immediately and greatly increased.

The next moment, golden light shone from her body.

"What the hell, again? Didn't they say that Immortal Techniques can only be used once within a certain period of time?" Chu Feng was surprised.

"No, the light this time around is different from that last time around," Her Lady Queen said.

"Heavens, this girl actually possesses other Immortal Techniques?"

Chu Feng's expression changed. He realized that Xia Yun'er was going to continue unleashing Immortal Techniques at him. Furthermore, he faintly felt that the Immortal Technique Xia Yun'er was going to unleash next would be stronger than the last one.

"Immortal Technique: Skyfill Golden Light!!!"

Xia Yun'er shouted. Then, she unleashed her attack at Chu Feng again. Apart from turning into golden light, the Immortal Technique Xia Yun'er unleashed at this moment was practically the same as the last Immortal Technique. However, the might of this Immortal Technique was indeed stronger than the previous one.

Thus, being bombarded by the golden light, Chu Feng's Ancient Era's War Axe and Ancient Era's War Sword started to tremble even more violently. Chu Feng was placed under even greater pressure.

That being said, the Immortal Technique this time around was still blocked by Chu Feng's Ancient Era's War Sword and Ancient Era's War Axe.

However, after Xia Yun'er's second Immortal Technique dissipated, Chu Feng also vomited out a mouthful of blood, while his aura grew much weaker.

Immediately after that, the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe disappeared.

Evidently, Chu Feng was no longer capable of using them.

Seeing Chu Feng's current reaction, Xia Yun'er finally revealed a faint cheerful expression.

"Miss Xia, it's not like I did it on purpose. There's no need for you and I to end up both suffering because of something minor like this, right?" Chu Feng said.

"Something minor? You dare say that this is something minor? You're truly looking to die!!!"

As Xia Yun'er spoke, she clasped her palms. The next moment, her body actually started to emit both silvery and golden light.

"Holy crap, this girl actually possesses a third Immortal Technique?"

Chu Feng frowned tightly, and his eyes were wide open.

Chu Feng was able to tell that the Immortal Technique Xia Yun'er was going to unleash would be stronger than both of the Immortal Techniques she had unleashed earlier.

As for Chu Feng, he was no longer capable of using the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe.

Thus, Chu Feng had lost the capability to contend against Xia Yun'er.

"Immortal Technique: Gold and Silver Skyfill Slash!!!"

Following a loud shout from Xia Yun'er, the gold and silver slash was shot toward Chu Feng.

Xia Yun'er's current Immortal Technique could be said to be the strongest Immortal Technique she had used so far.

Faced with such a powerful attack, the current Chu Feng was like a lamb at the slaughterhouse. He could only wait for the attack to come at him.

Without the Ancient Era's War Axe and the Ancient Era's War Sword, Chu Feng simply possessed no means to contend against Xia Yun'er's incoming Immortal Technique.

"Boom~~~"

The next moment, the Immortal Technique smashed into Chu Feng head-on.

Loud explosions began to sound as energy ripples surged. Not only was the surrounding water surging violently, but the powerful impulse from the attack even heaved the water upward. One could clearly see a pillar of water surging into the sky outside Buried Spirit Lake.

It took quite a while before the surroundings returned to normal. When the energy ripples from the Immortal Technique dissipated, Chu Feng was nowhere to be seen. Even his aura had disappeared completely.

Even though Chu Feng had been utterly destroyed by Xia Yun'er's Immortal Technique, the anger on Xia Yun'er's face did not decrease.

It would appear that even though Chu Feng had been killed by her, the hatred Xia Yun'er held for Chu Feng did not decrease in the slightest.

"To speak a word in fairness, you really can't blame that Chu Feng. After all, it was you who decided to undress. He did not deliberately try to see you naked," Chu Lingxi said.

"It doesn't matter who's at fault," Xia Yun'er said coldly.

This was the first time she had revealed such coldness and disrespect when speaking with Chu Lingxi.

However, Chu Lingxi did not look further into Xia Yun'er's somewhat disrespectful attitude. Instead, she smiled lightly, and then cast her gaze further into the depths of the Buried Spirit Lake.

Upon doing so, the smile on Chu lingxi's face grew even more profound.

As for Xia Yun'er, perhaps she was so immersed in her hatred for Chu Feng that she did not notice the change in Chu Lingxi's smile at all.

In the depths of Buried Spirit Lake, five different elemental energies were currently rapidly diving down toward the deeper depths of the lake.

They only stopped after traveling downward for a long while.

The next moment, those five elemental energies started to fuse with one another. They took shape in the figure of a man. It was Chu Feng.

It turned out that Chu Feng actually didn't die.

Chapter 2792 - The Erupting Buried Spirit Lake

"Puuu~~~"

Suddenly, Chu Feng sprayed out a mouthful of blood.

After spraying out a mouthful of blood, he sprayed out another mouthful of blood. One mouthful after another, Chu Feng was vomiting blood nonstop.

With each mouthful of blood, Chu Feng's aura would grow a bit weaker. In the end, when Chu Feng stopped vomiting blood, his aura had grown so weak that he was simply akin to a dying man.

Chu Feng hurriedly took out some medicinal pellets and tossed them into his mouth. Then, he sat cross-legged and began to set up healing formations to heal himself.

Although Chu Feng was unable to immediately recover from his injuries, after treating himself for a while, his complexion was no longer pale and ugly. Furthermore, he had also managed to recover his aura quite a bit.

"That was truly dangerous. Never would I expect the Five Elements Secret Skills to be the ones to end up saving my life," Chu Feng gasped in admiration.

When Chu Feng fused with the Five Elements Secret Skills, he had gained a life-preserving capability.

When facing those with strength similar to Chu Feng's, the Five Elements Secret Skills were capable of allowing Chu Feng to be undying and indestructible.

In other words, should Chu Feng's opponent not be overwhelmingly stronger than him, they would simply be incapable of killing him.

However, after Chu Feng set foot into the True Immortal Realm, even though Chu Feng knew that the Five Elements Secret Skill still possessed that special ability, he did not dare to rely on it.

The reason for that was because True Immortals were simply too powerful. One could not compare them with Martial Ancestors or Half Martial Ancestors.

Even when facing those with similar strength, Chu Feng felt that the Five Elements Secret Skills would not be able to safeguard him.

Thus, it could be said that Chu Feng had decided to take a risk to test things out.

As for his test, it verified Chu Feng's hypothesis. Sure enough, after reaching the True Immortal Realm, even when facing those with similar strength to his own, the Five Elements Secret Skills were, at the very most, only capable of safeguarding his life and not preventing injuries. Moreover, the injuries he sustained were quite serious.

While Chu Feng had managed to escape death after being attacked by Xia Yun'er's Immortal Technique, he had sustained serious injuries.

Of course, it was not only because of Xia Yun'er's attack that Chu Feng became so weak. It was also caused by the backlash Chu Feng received from using both the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe.

Although Chu Feng had only used the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe for a short period of time and shouldn't have received such a backlash, Chu Feng was attacked by Xia Yun'er's ferocious Immortal Techniques while he was using his Ancient Era's War Sword and Ancient Era's War Axe. That greatly consumed Chu Feng's strength.

Under such circumstances, it would instead be strange if Chu Feng didn't receive a backlash.

"It was truly too dangerous. What if your Five Elements Secret Skills failed to withstand Xia Yun'er's attack?"

"You were able to utilize the Ancient Era's War Axe and the Ancient Era's War Sword to fight her one last time. There was simply no need for you to do such a dangerous thing."

At that moment, an expression of complaint filled Her Lady Queen's little face.

It turned out, Chu Feng had not only deliberately allowed himself to be attacked by Xia Yun'er, but he had even deliberately pretended to be unable to use his Ancient Era's War Axe and Ancient Era's War Sword anymore.

Although using the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe again would indeed put an enormous burden on Chu Feng, it was clear that Chu Feng had not yet reached his limit.

He had deliberately pretended to have reached his limit and deliberately allowed himself to be struck by Xia Yun'er's attack so that he could flee using the undying ability of the Five Elements Secret Skills.

In other words, if Chu Feng were to continue using his Ancient Era's War Sword and Ancient Era's War Axe, he would still have been capable of fighting against Xia Yun'er.

Yet, Chu Feng decided to trust the Five Elements Secret Skills even though he did not have any certainty in whether or not it would be capable of handling Xia Yun'er's attack. He was indeed taking chances.

It was no wonder Her Lady Queen was angry at Chu Feng.

"My dear Eggy, don't be angry. Firstly, the Five Elements Secret Skills have fused with me. I am able to sense their strength. Even though the Five Elements Secret Skills are no longer capable of providing me with an undying and indestructible body and the ability to remain uninjured before those with similar strength to my own, I was able to tell that they were still capable of providing me with an undying and indestructible body. At the very most, I'll suffer some injuries."

"The reason why I attempted to use the Five Elements Secret Skills is firstly because I wanted to verify my guess. Secondly, I felt that the current me was no match for that Xia Yun'er. Even if I were to continue to use the Ancient Era's War Sword and the Ancient Era's War Axe, I would still not be a match for her."

"Didn't you know that girl grasped a great number of Immortal Techniques?"

"She had only revealed three Immortal Techniques so far. I was unable to be certain as to whether or not she possessed any other Immortal Techniques, and whether those Immortal Techniques might be even stronger," Chu Feng said.

"Indeed, that girl is quite powerful. Last time, when Chu Xianshuo used his single Immortal Technique, he ended up suffering from quite a backlash, and simply lost the capability to continue fighting against you."

"Yet, that girl actually managed to unleash three Immortal Techniques in succession. Furthermore, her three Immortal Techniques were each stronger than the last. This means that the burden upon her body from the three Immortal Techniques would each be more serious than the last."

"However, that girl appeared to be completely fine."

"Perhaps your decision to use the Five Elements Secret Skills to escape was correct. However, it remains to be too dangerous. Next time around, you must first obtain this Queen's approval before doing such a thing," Her Lady Queen said.

"Hehe, I will do as you bid, Milady Queen," Chu Feng smiled. Then, he gasped with admiration, "Although the Five Elements Secret Skills are inferior to what they were before now that my strength has increased, they still possess an enormous effect."

"Right now, the Four Symbols Secret Skills that I obtained first are of very little use."

"Thus, I grow ever more curious as to exactly what sort of individual the creator of the Five Elements Secret Skills, that Five Elements Old Ancestor, was. He must have been extremely powerful. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to have created such a powerful set of secret skills."

"The Ancestral Martial Lower Realm should have been very powerful during the Ancient Era. Thus, it is normal for experts to emerge there," Her Lady Queen said.

"Perhaps that's the case," Chu Feng said.

"Grumble, grumble, grumble~~~"

Right at this moment, the water in Buried Spirit Lake's suddenly started to boil.

Upon closer inspection, it didn't seem to be boiling. Rather, water ripples were battering upward from the depths of Buried Spirit Lake.

"This sensation, could it be that the eruption is about to arrive?" Chu Feng said in surprise.

The reason why Chu Feng said it like this was because he did not wish for the eruption to arrive yet.

After all, Chu Feng had yet to completely heal his injuries. Thus, he was not at his optimal state.

Since one needed to comprehend the contents of the eruption, Chu Feng would naturally want to be in his best state. He did not wish to attempt comprehension in an injured state.

"Bang~~~"

Right at this moment, a loud explosion sounded from the depths of Buried Spirit Lake. Soon, runes and symbols visible to the naked eye erupted from the depths of the lake like a massive, densely-packed army.

This was truly the arrival of what one fears.

The eruption of Buried Spirit Lake actually really arrived.

Furthermore, the speed of the eruption was simply too fast. Soon, the runes and symbols charged past Chu Feng and engulfed him completely.

Not only that, but the power of the eruption was still rushing upward. In merely a short moment, they reached the surface of Buried Spirit Lake.

This eruption that happened once every ten years and lasted for only a single day had finally begun.
