After a moment of shock, Chen Feng felt a chilly breath against him.
"Where is this? There is no trace of life around. So weird," he said to himself, but he was even more surprised to find the boy wasn’t there.
However, the Land of Trial Practice was full of mystery, and it was normal for some weird things to happen, so Chen Feng quickly got used to it.
He knew that he had already been one step ahead of others, so he had to hurry up; otherwise, when everyone else came in, he’d have more trouble on his hands.
After wandering around for a while, Chen Feng hadn’t found anything. With powerful Ling forces, he had walked for a long time without making any discoveries.
"Aren’t there countless treasures in the Land of Trial Practice? Also, there should be the treasure which can break through the Ling spirit level of the spiritual G.o.ds. I have been here for so long without any discoveries. What is going on?"
"Was it a fake rumor?" Chen Feng shook his head. He saw the giant door opening in the air by itself. There were surely some secrets inside, but they had yet to be discovered.
At midnight, Chen Feng found a quiet place for rest. No sooner had he closed his eyes than he felt a murderous atmosphere in the air. He was shocked and quickly bounded up.
Looking from above, the place where he had just been sitting on his knees now bore a huge spur that carried with it a certain degree of maliciousness. Obviously, something was attacking him.
"This is no coincidence. The monster must have been somewhere nearby all day long, and I just haven’t found it yet." Chen Feng’s brain stormed and he instantly knew he was in danger.
Facing an unknown enemy always filled people with dread. But Chen Feng was an exception. At this time, he was very calm, and the more danger he was in, the more concentration he had.
Unconsciously, Chen Feng seemed to have disappeared and slowly blended in with everything around him. It was an artistic conception of unity between man and nature.
However, Chen Feng did not know that and everything around him clearly appeared in his mind, and even a small insect 300 meters away could also be seen clearly.
Suddenly a black shadow flashed in the air. Chen Feng smiled coldly. "Cannot maintain its calm now, huh?"
He quickly moved to follow it and suddenly drew his golden sword with full power against the black shadow.
Only when he came near did he notice that the hand was made up of a pair of dead bones.
"How can it be that easy to deal with? There must be a strong force behind it." Chen Feng carefully sensed and discovered an energy floating from the pair of dead bones. Although its energy was weak, it was slowly gathering in one direction.
He followed it to the place where the energy gathered. Suddenly, a black shadow flew out into the air with sharp laughter and said, "Hey, poor guy, you are destined to be my prey when you enter the gate of h.e.l.l. Give yourself up immediately!”
"The gate of h.e.l.l? What’s that? Who are you?" Chen Feng asked as he stared at the black shadow.
The black figure burst out into a series of horrible laughs, "I am the invincible King of Death beyond the gate of h.e.l.l. I will devour your blood and vitality and absorb your soul, so that you will stay here forever.”
"You’re daydreaming!" Chen Feng sneered. He knew that the King of Death was not a simple existence. Since it was called a gate of h.e.l.l, it must be very difficult for him to cross it, at least with the King of Death standing there.
It was at this time that the Unknown Martial Art in Chen Feng’s body suddenly started to run wildly, as if it were affected by the dead atmosphere around him. However, the operation was slightly different and he soon discovered that he was actually absorbing the deathly aura.
What’s going on? Can this atmosphere of death be used for cultivation? Chen Feng was curious and found the aura inside was constantly transforming into the power of pure vitality.
Chen Feng once thought his cultivation of the Unknown Martial Art had reached a bottleneck and he did not expect some strange changes would occur in the gate of h.e.l.l. It was obvious that his vitality had never really reached its peak due to limited energy absorption. Once there was new energy for cultivation, the Unknown Martial Art could continue to consolidate more vitality power.
As if he had understood something, this cultivation seemed to consume a huge amount of energy. Only the Ling force alone was not enough; he needed all kinds of energies.
He was a little excited because he was used to remaining at the Ling nature level. However, he could finally make some progress at this moment. When he had absorbed all the deathly atmosphere in the gate of h.e.l.l, Chen Feng found that he had reached the peak of Ling nature level.
