Chapter 605 - Aim
Inside the captain’s cabin in the Blue Lightning Sea Sky s.h.i.+p, Zhao Feng’s face was pale, and he didn’t immediately seal his eye-bloodline.
Some unknown and mysterious power seemed to be gazing at Zhao Feng’s G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye. Zhao Feng couldn’t say for sure what it was, but he knew it was there.
“What kind of power is this? It’s not from the physical or the soul dimensions and there’s no damage at all, yet it surpa.s.ses every type of power.”
Zhao Feng’s eyebrows furrowed.
Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng!
The G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye’s senses became stronger, and the feeling was familiar, yet strange. He felt something like this before when facing the Eye of Death.
“Could it be… one of the Eight Great G.o.d Eye’s descendants?”
Zhao Feng’s eyes twinkled. The only descendant of the Eight Great G.o.d Eyes he had interacted with before was the Emperor of Death. Although Grandmaster Yin Kong had an eye-bloodline with spatial abilities, he wasn’t a true descendant of the Eye of s.p.a.ce, he was only somewhat related to it.
Shua!
Zhao Feng circulated his bloodline power and sealed off his G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye, but the mysterious force gazing upon him didn’t disappear, it only weakened.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat sat on Zhao Feng’s shoulder and waved its paws.
The two understood each other well. By now, they knew what the other meant with just one glance.
“You’re saying that it’s related to our Dao?”
Zhao Feng’s heart moved.
He suddenly remembered Liu Qinxin’s master, an inheritor of the Dao of Life. Her master even made Liu Qinxin change her original name in order to change her destiny.
If it weren’t for that, Zhao Feng wouldn’t have met Liu Qinxin.
Although Zhao Feng ended up enraging the City Lord, the latter managed to break through to the True Lord Rank. Unfortunately, Liu Qinxin never returned from the inheritance.
“Fate is extremely profound.”
Zhao Feng couldn’t block this power, but he knew that the stronger he became, the more control he had over his fate.
As his G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye and eye-bloodline became stronger, so did his control of the world.
“The Ancient is broken, and the Ancient G.o.ds slain will turn into a trillion pieces of dust…
“To continue my eye-bloodline, gain absolute power, rule the world, and control the heavens.”
An ancient voice resounded throughout his mind.
Rule the world and control the heavens.
Zhao Feng’s heart was suddenly filled with confidence and willpower.
Shua!
His G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye opened once more, and the lake within his left eye’s dimension started to ripple as it released an aura belonging to the ancient era.
The aura started to radiate from Zhao Feng, and it spread throughout a great distance.
At the same time, on the other side of the limitless ocean:
Wah!
The white-eyed little girl suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood as her small body started to sway.
“Bai Lin, what happened?”
The warm youth’s expression changed slightly as he grabbed onto her.
The white-eyed little girl’s eyes were filled with shock.
“My eyes hurt. I need to rest for a while, but I’ve found the line of destiny.”
The white-eyed little girl said weakly.
Line of destiny?
The eyes of the warm youth lit up.
“Spiritual Sacred Lands.”
The white-eyed little girl said before falling asleep.
In the limitless ocean:
Whoos.h.!.+
A layer of water and lightning glowed across the surface of the Blue Lightning Sea Sky s.h.i.+p as it flew through the air.
Two months had pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, and everyone within the s.h.i.+p had already recovered.
Apart from Loulan Zhishui and the eight sailors, there was now a new member – Li Yunya.
After escaping death, Li Yunya decided to join the crew.
“I was falsely accused by other disciples in my clan and have nowhere to stay in the Five Mountain Islands Zone. To repay Captain, I have decided to stay on the Blue Lightning Sea Sky s.h.i.+p.”
Li Yunya’s promise seemed to be from just a moment ago.
He was more experienced than Loulan Zhishui and company. Li Yunya joining allowed the s.h.i.+p to be used to its fullest potential, and he could even fix any damage to the s.h.i.+p. Therefore, Zhao Feng made Li Yunya a vice-captain half a month ago.
“Li Yunya, how much do you know about the Emperor of Death?”
Zhao Feng asked.
Li Yunya was silent for a moment before answering, “Throughout the entire Cang Ocean and three Spiritual Sacred Lands, Void G.o.d Realm Kings stand at the peak since those with the t.i.tle of Emperor are so rare and unfathomable. Amongst them, the Emperor of Death has the Eye of Death, so he is one of the stronger ones even amongst Emperors….”
The Void G.o.d Realm was split into two levels – King and Emperor – but Li Yunya didn’t know the exact differences between them.
“The Emperor of Death also has four Death Spirit Lords and thirty-six Death Guards under him. The four Death Spirit Lords are all Void G.o.d Realm Kings.”
Li Yunya said, and Zhao Feng’s expression became solemn after hearing it.
The Death Guard he just met was only one of the thirty-six Death Guards under the Emperor of Death? Furthermore, the only reason the Death Guard lost was because he was trying to capture Zhao Feng alive; it would have been several times easier to just kill Zhao Feng.
“Luckily, I didn’t meet one of the four Death Spirit Lords.”
Zhao Feng sweated coldly. If he had met a Void G.o.d Realm instead, there would’ve been no hope at all.
“Apparently, the thirty-six Death Guards are ranked. For example, from the first Death Guard to the second Death Guard… till the thirty-sixth Death Guard.”
Li Yunya continued.
They’re ranked?
Zhao Feng’s pupils contracted, and his expression kept changing. What rank was the one they fought?
“It’s certain that the one that Captain defeated wasn’t one of the higher ranked ones because the higher ranked ones have a cultivation at the half-step Void G.o.d Realm, and they’re even able to threaten Void G.o.d Realm Kings.”
Li Yunya said in a matter-of-fact tone.
Hearing that, Zhao Feng felt even more pressured.
“The Pursuit of Death is far too terrifying.”
No wonder no one had been able to escape from the Pursuit of Death. Even if they could escape from the Death Guards, there were still the Death Spirit Lords.
A small number of targets were at the Void G.o.d Realm and could escape even from the four Death Spirit Lords, but at the very end was the Emperor of Death himself.
The Eye of Death had a high level of control over the laws of Death. No one across the Cang Ocean had higher understanding than him.
Within the captain’s cabin:
“The Pursuit of Death…. I won’t give up.”
Zhao Feng gritted his teeth.
He was like a lost dog being chased around. He had never experienced such humiliation ever since he started to cultivate.
“Not only will I escape, I will become stronger and repay this humiliation several times over.”
Zhao Feng’s eyes became full of battle-intent.
The pressure from the Pursuit of Death was squeezing out his potential.
Within the Ten Thousand Ghost Pearl:
“Master, my injuries have healed. I will create a new array flag and perfect the cursed ghost-corpses.”
The skeletal Division Leader’s voice sounded.
Zhao Feng nodded his head. On this journey, the skeletal Division Leader and Li Yunya had become his left and right arms.
Zhao Feng would give them a part of his resources.
For example, Li Yunya received two barrels of heart blood essence, and his state of existence wasn’t far off the peak Small Origin Core Realm. He used to be a one-in-thousand-years genius of the Six Ring Palace two-star sect, and Zhao Feng had his eyes set on his potential.
There’s still 20-30 barrels of heart blood essence left, and the effect is extremely weak for me now.
Zhao Feng thought as he soaked in heart blood essence.
The effect of the heart blood essence was much weaker than before. He had only used two barrels over the last two months.
The aura from the Ancient Dream Realm and the heart blood essence had allowed Zhao Feng’s state of existence to rise to the peak Great Origin Core Realm.
“Even the effect of the Ancient Dream Realm aura has become weaker.”
Zhao Feng sighed.
He tried every method that could increase his strength, and he realized that the closer his state of existence got to the limit between the Origin Core Realm and the Void G.o.d Realm, the bigger the resistance.
Shua!
Zhao Feng closed his eyes and entered the mysterious whirlpool within his eye’s lake.
The Ancient Dream Realm. Zhao Feng once again appeared on this continent.
His body and soul were instantly pressured by an overwhelming power.
Everything in his heart was pure.
“Absorb.”
Zhao Feng started to absorb the aura from the Ancient Dream Realm. As he entered the place more and more, he became more familiar and efficient in absorbing the aura.
Now his body and Source of True Spirit had both absorbed quite a bit of the aura from the Ancient Dream Realm.
His state of existence had reached the limit of humans. If he didn’t conceal it, his every breath and action seemed to release an aura like an ancient beast.
“I can kill beasts at the half-step Origin Core Realm with just my body alone.”
Zhao Feng felt the large power and potential within his bloodline and body.
Within his dantian, Zhao Feng’s sticky Source of True Spirit had been replaced by a faint purple half-step True Yuan.
The half-step True Yuan was formed from the intent of the Purple Destruction Wind Lightning. The aura of Destruction coming from it was terrifying.
“I’m just a bit away from having enough of a foundation to try to break through to the Origin Core Realm.”
Zhao Feng found that he could control his body and cultivate within the Ancient Dream Realm, and the effects were countless times better than the outside world.
What made him sigh was that the time he could stay here was so limited.
A couple dozen breaths later, blood started to leak out from Zhao Feng’s mouth.
“Fifty-two breaths.”
A smile appeared on Zhao Feng’s face. He was slowly approaching his target time.
Use this time well.
Zhao Feng quickly absorbed the aura from the Ancient Dream Realm into his body.
“My bloodline and body aren’t becoming stronger as fast as before. Why not let the aura from the Ancient Dream Realm merge into the eye?”
A thought appeared in Zhao Feng’s mind.
