Chapter 496: Grand Emperor Scorpius
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The entire cosmos seemed to have fallen silent all of a sudden. Everyone who saw this scene was speechless. Just now, they were still discussing how ignorant Lin Feng was to actually dare to challenge Grand Emperor Scorpius.
But now, Lin Feng had defeated 13 Venerables with one move. Moreover, two of the Venerables were the top Venerables below Grand Emperors. How could anyone but a Grand Emperor defeat more than ten Venerables in one move?
“Is he really a Grand Emperor?”
“But I don’t think I’ve ever seen this Grand Emperor before.”
“Perhaps he changed his appearance and doesn’t want his ident.i.ty to be known.”
!!
The voices of discussion gradually diminished in volume. If Lin Feng were a Grand Emperor who came to challenge Grand Emperor Scorpius, things would be different. It was bound to be a devastating battle.
If they were not careful, even the entire Scorpius Domain might be destroyed.
At this moment, the dozen or so Venerables who had been sent flying by Lin Feng’s palm strike also came to their senses one after another. Their expressions turned very dark, especially the two top-notch Venerables. They actually could not resist at all before they were sent flying. The difference was just too great.
However, no matter how reluctant they were, they had no choice but to accept that this new challenger was very likely really a Grand Emperor. Otherwise, how could he have put them in such a sorry state?
Moreover, the other party had shown mercy. Although some of the dozen or so Venerables were seriously injured, none of them died. Hence, they did not dare to approach. Instead, they all sent messages to Grand Emperor Scorpius.
Lin Feng stood in the cosmos, and the aura on his body gradually converged. The 200,000-kilometer combat body seemed insignificant in the eyes of many Venerables, but no one dared to underestimate Lin Feng now. It was as if the 200,000-kilometer combat body had already become a “special message”.
Lin Feng was not in a hurry. He waited quietly and adjusted his state.
Ever since he had comprehended all three Laws to the advanced level, he had never attacked with his full strength. Be it when facing Dominus Prime Dragon, or the Venerables of Scorpius Domain, Lin Feng had actually not even used half of his strength before he was already near invincible.
Almost no Venerable could withstand a single strike from him.
Only a Grand Emperor could make Lin Feng attack with his full strength.
The cosmos seemed to have become even calmer, but Lin Feng’s eyes suddenly focused. Then, he only stared at the distant cosmos as a man slowly walked over.
This man looked very young, but his eyes were very deep. There was no knowing how long he had lived. There was no overly powerful aura on him from head to toe, but he made Lin Feng’s heart palpitate.
No one had ever been able to make Lin Feng feel this way. It was as if he was facing the Divine King Bemond from back then, but there was a difference. Divine King Bemond was actually not too imposing. In fact, there was no imposing air from him at all. There was just a kind of suppression in terms of the level of life.
However, this mysterious person did not suppress him in terms of the level of life, but gave off an extremely strong sense of danger.
“Grand Emperor Scorpius!”
Lin Feng enunciated each word clearly and said in a solemn tone. He had come to the Scorpius Domain to challenge Grand Emperor Scorpius. Naturally, he had done his research, and knew what Grand Emperor Scorpius looked like.
The mysterious man in front of him was Grand Emperor Scorpius!
Lin Feng treated him as a formidable enemy, and his expression became very solemn. Grand Emperor Scorpius had finally appeared. This was the first time he was facing a Grand Emperor directly. Even back in the Divine Palace of Bemond, Lin Feng had never seen an ultimate planetary lifeform who was a Grand Emperor in terms of power.
He did not know how strong a Grand Emperor was, but now that he was facing Grand Emperor Scorpius head-on, a strong sense of danger arose in the depths of his heart. He vaguely sensed that a Grand Emperor was probably stronger than he had imagined.
“Your aura is very unique. You are not a Grand Emperor, or even a Venerable… You have undergone six life transitions, and you’re an elementary planetary lifeform!”
Grand Emperor Scorpius frowned and sized Lin Feng up carefully. In the end, even Grand Emperor Scorpius could not help but be surprised. There were countless elementary planetary lifeforms in his Scorpius Domain.
However, even ten or a hundred elementary planetary lifeforms combined were not as powerful as Lin Feng. Moreover, being able to send more than ten Venerables flying with a single palm strike was not something elementary planetary lifeforms could accomplish at all.
Could the other party really be a Grand Emperor, just one who had special methods to conceal his aura?
For the first time, Grand Emperor Scorpius felt that he could not see through Lin Feng.
While Grand Emperor Scorpius was confused, Lin Feng was not calm either. When facing Grand Emperor Scorpius, he felt transparent, as if he had been seen through.
As expected of a Grand Emperor, he was indeed not someone a Venerable could compare to.
“Who are you?”
“Grand Emperor Scorpius, you can call me Wanderer!”
Lin Feng had already thought of an alias.
“Wanderer?”
Grand Emperor Scorpius’s frown deepened. He could tell that the “Wanderer” was definitely an alias, and he had changed his appearance. He was certain that there was no such person as the “Wanderer” in the North River Galaxy.
Could he actually be one of those ascetic cultivators drifting through the universe, desperately seeking the mysteries of the universe?
If he was really one of those ascetic cultivators, Grand Emperor definitely did not dare to underestimate him. Those ascetic cultivators were like lunatics in the eyes of Grand Emperor Scorpius. There were even ent.i.ties at the level of the Grand Emperors among them. They were entirely focused on metamorphosing again, undergoing a life transition, and thus attaining sublimation.
It was not like Grand Emperor Scorpius had never met such ascetic cultivators before. They were all rather tricky to deal with.
Lin Feng’s alias was “Wanderer”, and he was powerful. This gave Grand Emperor Scorpius the misconception that Lin Feng might be a “drifter”.
Lin Feng would much rather Grand Emperor Scorpius remain ignorant to his origins. He no longer hesitated and said with a solemn expression, “Grand Emperor Scorpius, I came specially for you. I want to challenge you!”
“Challenge me?”
Grand Emperor Scorpius shook his head. As long as the other party was not a Grand Emperor, Grand Emperor Scorpius would not pay any mind to it.
“Let’s go further from here. Don’t destroy the Scorpius Domain.”
“Of course.”
Hence, Lin Feng and Grand Emperor Scorpius left the Scorpius Domain. Those Venerables and some bolder elementary planetary lifeforms followed them from afar.
This unprecedented battle between “Grand Emperors” was something that could only be chanced upon by luck. If they missed this opportunity, there was no knowing how long it would take for them to encounter the next one.
Hence, none of them were willing to miss this opportunity. They would rather watch from afar.
Lin Feng and Grand Emperor Scorpius confronted each other in the cosmos. Neither of them paid attention to the others. Their mental power immediately locked onto the other.
“Scorpius Combat Body!”
Grand Emperor Scorpius did not dare to take things lightly. He deployed its combat body, and his body expanded wildly.
Immediately, a terrifying aura was emitted. It was as if even the cosmos was shaking. Even Lin Feng felt a huge pressure on his combat body.
Powerful, too powerful!
No wonder some people called the Grand Emperors black holes. It was not that their combat bodies were black holes. In reality, even black holes were not as ma.s.sive as the combat body of Grand Emperors.
However, the combat body of a Grand Emperor could affect all living beings or planets within a radius of billions of kilometers, like a black hole. The sheer impact it radiated was unimaginable.
As for Lin Feng, this was the first time he was facing the unimaginably ma.s.sive combat body of a Grand Emperor!
