Chapter 6093: Chu Feng Appears
Chu Feng had previously used the Embryo Awakening Talisman to awaken his Netherworld Embryo, which temporarily granted the strength of a rank two True G.o.d level cultivator, so that he could fight the Immortal Slaughterer.
He had used Divine Flitting then, and he was indeed unable to draw out its true prowess.
With the power of a rank two True G.o.d level cultivator, he was only able to exert the speed of a rank four True G.o.d level cultivator when using Divine Flitting.
He thought that was the limitation of the Embryo Awakening Talisman then, but it turned out the one limiting him was his cultivation.
“Elder, lend me your strength,” Chu Feng told the Asura King.
Without any hesitation, the Asura King transferred his strength to Chu Feng.
Chu Feng gained the strength of a rank four True G.o.d level cultivator, but he didn’t have superior fighting prowess among cultivators of the same level anymore. It was to be expected since this power didn’t belong to him but the Asura King.
Chu Feng executed Divine Flitting, and his movement speed accelerated beyond the limits of a rank four True G.o.d level cultivator. Yet, he frowned as his speed was only comparable to a rank five True G.o.d level cultivator. It was far from meeting his expectations.
The restrictions on him were much greater than when he used the Embryo Awakening Talisman, which was understandable since his cultivation was raised to a greater extent this time.
He prayed that Baili Zilin could only raise his cultivation to rank four True G.o.d level too.
“All right, elder.”
Chu Feng told the Asura King to take back his cultivation before projecting his consciousness into his World Spirit s.p.a.ce.
He looked at the gate.
He could utilize the strength of the Asura King and the others six times, but he had just used it once so that meant he only had five times left before the Asura World Spirit Army was sealed off again.
Chu Feng didn’t think the limited usage was an issue since he wouldn’t have to borrow the Asura King’s strength once he reached True G.o.d level. He would rather quickly summon them and reseal the gate again so that he could further raise their cultivation.
But there was no time for that. He had to confront Baili Zilin now, or else w.a.n.g Qiang would be in danger.
All of a sudden, he turned to the Asura Sword lying in his World Spirit s.p.a.ce.
“The strongest sword of the Asura Spirit World, won’t you lend me your strength and show the world of cultivation what you’re capable of?” Chu Feng asked with a smile.
The Asura Sword didn’t reply.
Chu Feng was certain that the sword could hear but was choosing to ignore him.
Now that he thought about it, he had obtained quite a few treasures, be it the Asura Sword, the Sacred Tree Seed, the Genesis Bloodline, the Dao Creation Palace, and more, but he couldn’t use any of them right now.
“I went through so much trouble to obtain you, but you turn out to be useless. I ought to think twice when I encounter those so-called amazing powers or treasures next time; there’s no point obtaining them if I can’t even use them.”
As much as it was a sincere grumble, this was also an attempt to provoke the Asura Sword. However, it failed to elicit a response from the Asura Sword.
Chu Feng sighed.
It was annoying, but he couldn’t give up on the treasures he had painstakingly obtained. He wouldn’t have hesitated to obtain them again if he had to do it all over again, let alone throw them away.
Good stuff was good stuff. He couldn’t use them now, but they might become useful later.
So, Chu Feng took out the teleportation talisman he had prepared and fused it inside his body. This teleportation talisman was strong enough for him to flee from anyone beneath pinnacle True G.o.d level.
His plan was simple.
He would first demand to meet w.a.n.g Qiang, then fight with Baili Zilin with the Asura King’s power. It would be best if he could win the battle; he could achieve his goal while preserving his dignity.
But he wouldn’t force himself if the battle was beyond him either.
When Baili Zilin let down his guard, he would rush to w.a.n.g Qiang through Divine Flitting and invoke his teleportation talisman to get away.
...
Everyone on Ignition Pulse Ordinary Realm was converging on Ignition Pulse Village. To say that there was a crowd here would be a gross understatement. It looked more like locusts had devoured the area.
Chen Hui’s flying wars.h.i.+p was still hidden. He and Lord Yun Ao stood at the forefront of the deck while Netherworld Sectmembers stood at attention behind them.
“Huihui, are you certain Chu Feng will come? That fellow survived the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion’s pursuit; I don’t think he would be this foolish. He should have guessed that Baili Zilin harbors malicious intentions,” Yun Ao asked Chen Hui.
“He’ll surely be here. I don’t know Chu Feng very well, but I heard from little sister Yun’er that he’s the kind who will put his life on the line for his friends,” Chen Hui replied.
“That makes me see him in a different light.”
Yun Ao wasn’t fond of dumb people, but he disliked disloyal people even more.
The world of cultivation was filled with dumb, smart, and despicable individuals, but loyalty was a trait that was extremely difficult to find, especially among prodigies.
How many people would be willing to put themselves on the line for others, especially when they knew that they had a bright future ahead of them? Ironically, more people would murder their friends and kin for the sake of a brighter future.
Thus, Lord Yun Ao respected those who were loyal.
“Lord Yun Ao, please protect Chu Feng if he shows himself,” Chen Hui said.
“You want me to protect him? That’s inappropriate,” Yun Ao replied.
“I have met Chu Feng, and I think he’s a good person. Furthermore, he’s on good terms with little sister Yun’er too. She’ll be disappointed in me if she learns that I could have helped Chu Feng but failed to do so. Besides, aren’t you p.i.s.sed at Baili Zilin? The best way to get back at him is to not let him get his way.”
“That makes sense. Fine. I’ll ensure Chu Feng’s safety if he dares to come.”
This flying wars.h.i.+p wasn’t the only ma.s.sive object hidden in this area. There was an even larger ent.i.ty hidden in the sky—the Nine Heavens’ Zenith.
Master Nine Zenith stood at the peak of the Nine Heavens’ Zenith with his disciple, Liu Kuo, standing beside him. They could see what was happening outside even though they were some distance away.
“Master, did Brother Chu Feng come or not?” Liu Kuo was burning with curiosity.
Master Nine Zenith didn’t reply.
“Master, what do you intend to do if Brother Chu Feng comes?” Liu Kuo asked again.
Master Nine Zenith finally replied, “What do you want me to do?”
“Stand up for Brother Chu Feng, of course. The Seven Realms Sacred Mansion is one thing, but even the Netherworld Sect dares to kick up a fuss now. If we don’t make a stand, they might think that there’s no one behind my Brother Chu Feng and that anyone can trample on him!”
Master Nine Zenith chuckled, but he didn’t say a word.
Liu Kuo also didn’t press the matter on. He had a good grasp of his master’s capabilities and temperament. His master must have come here to protect or at least ensure Chu Feng’s safety. He just wondered what means his master would employ.
...
The spirit power shrouding the dueling ring finally dissipated, revealing w.a.n.g Qiang and Baili Zilin to the world.
w.a.n.g Qiang looked unharmed. He sat on the ground with closed eyes, seemingly cultivating.
Baili Zilin looked at the crowd with a confident demeanor.
Cheers broke out from the crowd.
Baili Zilin’s reputation had skyrocketed over the past month, winning him many supporters. Some even wondered if they had misunderstood the Netherworld Sect, since Baili Zilin was not only strong but polite as well. It was hard to think that he was a villain.
Baili Zilin also relished in the crowd’s att.i.tude.
He first bowed at the crowd with a smile before speaking, “I have let you wait for another month. My stance remains the same. If Chu Feng comes, I won’t make things difficult for him or w.a.n.g Qiang, and I’ll let w.a.n.g Qiang go. But if Chu Feng refuses to come, w.a.n.g Qiang will have to pay the price of his arrogance.”
The crowd broke into discussion.
Everyone thought that Chu Feng might have chickened out since it was already the last day but he was still nowhere to be seen.
“Release him,” a voice echoed.
The world fell silent. Everyone turned their eyes over.
A figure was standing in mid-air.
Cheers erupted when the crowd got a good glimpse of that person, and it was many times louder than when Baili Zilin made his appearance.
Needless to say, that person was Chu Feng.
