Section 159

“You killed both of them? How is that possible? Could it be that the Heaven Rank Martial Emperor of your Great Xia Empire made a move?”

Xia Feng was already prepared for battle, but Old Man Chongwu, on the other hand, had a solemn expression. His attention wasn't on Xia Feng but was constantly using spiritual power to probe the surroundings, searching for other unfamiliar auras.

“No one?”

Old Man Chongwu frowned, finding it hard to comprehend.

Even if Xia Feng could raise his own strength to Heaven Rank First Level Martial Emperor, it was impossible to kill Qing Yang Zi and Ghost Shark when they were working together.

Let alone First Level, even a Third Level Martial Emperor wouldn't have much hope unless it was an expert above the Fifth Level.

“Xia Feng kid, what method did you rely on to kill Qing Yang Zi and Ghost Shark?”

Old Man Chongwu's expression was very ugly as he didn't get an answer.

He had been cautious his entire life, and what he hated most was the feeling that things were not under his control.

There were too many things he couldn't figure out. Something unusual must indicate something evil!

If Xia Feng could kill Qing Yang Zi and Ghost Shark, why couldn't he kill him, who was also a Heaven Rank First Level Martial Emperor?

Even though Old Man Chongwu's strength was slightly stronger than the other two, they were all Heaven Rank First Level Martial Emperors, so the difference wasn't that big!

Old Man Chongwu had lived for over a hundred thousand years, and the Nichao Empire's evaluation of him was that he was as cunning as a fox.

Without figuring out why things were like this, he didn't dare to act rashly.

Seeing that Old Man Chongwu was just staring at him with cold eyes and had no intention of attacking, Xia Feng couldn't help but laugh.

“Are all of you Heaven Rank Martial Emperors from the Nichao Empire as timid as mice?”

Chapter 194: Old Man Chongwu's Demonic Transformation

“Kid, provoking me is useless. I know your Great Xia Empire has sent reinforcements. You should call them out.”

Old Man Chongwu was completely unmoved. Instead, he spoke nonchalantly to trick him.

“The Empire sent reinforcements? How come I don't know?” Xia Feng scratched the back of his head, then spread his hands. “I just came to scout for some information. You old fellow shouldn't be so timid, right?”

Old Man Chongwu's actions truly left Xia Feng speechless.

Before the Ten Girls arrived, he actually didn't have the strength to kill the opponent, but Old Man Chongwu stubbornly refused to attack, which was something Xia Feng hadn't expected.

“Hmph, little thing, without relying on something, you dare to come to my army tent alone to scout for my information?” Old Man Chongwu sneered. “I won't attack. If you want to bring people to kill me, then please do so.”

Xia Feng's mouth twitched. He had originally wanted to test the strength of this old fellow, but now it seemed there was no need.

“Alright, if you don't attack, I won't either. Then let's just wait it out.”

Xia Feng crossed his arms over his chest, then directly leaned against a stake outside, coldly watching Old Man Chongwu.

The old man and the young man looked at each other, with tangible killing intent in their eyes.

But strangely, they had no intention of attacking, as if they could kill each other just by relying on their eyes.

Old Man Chongwu felt a vague sense of unease in his heart, but he didn't know what was going on.

As for Xia Feng, he was silently waiting for the arrival of the Ten Girls. He couldn't defeat Old Man Chongwu right now.

Once the Ten Girls arrived and the Ten Absolute Formation amplified him, he would definitely knock out a few teeth from this old fellow.

The night wind blew, and the two of them stood silently watching each other in the darkness, forming a perfect scene.

About three minutes later, ten streams of light streaked across the sky. The stunningly beautiful Ten Girls landed steadily in front of Xia Feng, their beautiful eyes filled with frost as they looked at Old Man Chongwu.

“Ten Earth Rank Martial Emperors... none of them are Heaven Rank. Is this your confidence?”

Looking at these ten people, Old Man Chongwu was even more confused. He had thought Xia Feng would call upon a more powerful existence, perhaps even an expert around Heaven Rank Fifth Level.

Although he hadn't attacked Xia Feng, he had actually secretly taken out an Eighth Tier High Grade Spirit Travel Talisman, ready to escape immediately if the situation went wrong.

But after waiting and waiting, why did ten Earth Rank Martial Emperors arrive?

If they really fought to the death, even if these people joined forces, they would only face death.

Heaven Rank Martial Emperors, their divine power is immeasurable!

“Husband, he's holding an Eighth Tier High Grade Spirit Travel Talisman. Don't let him run away!” Heavenly Rune Saintess Li Shiqing had a strong sense and instantly detected the fluctuations of the Spirit Travel Talisman Old Man Chongwu was holding behind his hand. She immediately spoke to remind him.

“You were really planning to run away at any time? Aren't you a rat?”

This was something Xia Feng hadn't expected. Connecting it to Old Man Chongwu's cautious appearance earlier and the fact that he was holding an Eighth Tier Spirit Travel Talisman at this moment, he couldn't help but let out a sarcastic laugh.

Old Man Chongwu's face was very ugly, his old face flushed with anger.

He, a dignified Heaven Rank Martial Emperor, was so scared by eleven Earth Rank Martial Emperors that he was clutching a Spirit Travel Talisman, ready to flee at any moment.

This was somewhat disgraceful to say the least.

“No wonder you've lived for over a hundred thousand years. You run faster than a rabbit when you encounter something uncertain.”

Xia Feng shook his head and sighed.

“Shut up, you young brat! How do you not know the principle that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall? No matter what you want to achieve, being able to survive first is the most important thing!”

Perhaps he was a little exasperated, Old Man Chongwu was no longer as steady as before. He pointed at Xia Feng's nose and cursed him.

“What does that have to do with me? Not leaving earlier was your biggest mistake. Take your principles and think about them carefully in your next life. I think you haven't thought enough. Beloved wives, help me!”

Xia Feng shook his head, then his eyes flashed with brilliance. He turned his head and shouted at the Ten Girls behind him.

The Ten Girls immediately nodded, then poured all the spiritual energy of the Ten Absolute Formation into Xia Feng's body. Instantly, the golden light on Xia Feng's body flashed brightly again, reaching the Realm of Heaven Rank Fourth Level Martial Emperor in an instant!

“What!?”

Old Man Chongwu's pupils constricted sharply. He never expected Xia Feng to still have this move hidden.

Without thinking further, he immediately poured spiritual power into the Spirit Travel Talisman in his hand. Facing a Heaven Rank Fourth Level Martial Emperor, he had to quickly create distance!

But...

Old Man Chongwu was somewhat startled. Even though he had already poured spiritual power into it, the Spirit Travel Talisman couldn't be activated.

“I have sealed the spiritual power of the talisman in your hand. Don't even think about escaping!”

Heavenly Rune Saintess Li Shiqing's beautiful phoenix eyes stared coldly at him. She clasped her hands together, having already modified the seal script on the talisman in Old Man Chongwu's hand.

The writing on it was also smeared, and the effect of the Spirit Travel Talisman could not be displayed.

Heavenly Rune Saintess Li Shiqing had spent her life studying talismans. The talismans she had written numbered in the tens of thousands, if not more.

Now that she had reached the Realm of Earth Rank Martial Emperor, modifying the seal script of a Spirit Travel Talisman was nothing to her!

“So, go to hell!”

Xia Feng was like a golden War God, leaping into the air. The Qingxue Sword in his hand slashed straight towards Old Man Chongwu.

If this strike landed, his fate would be no different from that of Qing Yang Zi, cut in two!

Old Man Chongwu gritted his teeth tightly. Soon, he made an unexpected move.

He directly inserted a black crystal blade into his own heart.

Almost instantly, his skin changed from dry to hard, and then became deformed.

“Demonic Transformation?”

Xia Feng's eyes narrowed, and he quickly thought of the demonic transformation technique of Qing Yang Zi and Ghost Shark earlier.

In the sky, that evil and strange target was projected again. Xia Feng felt a chill in his heart, and couldn't help but feel dizzy.

Old Man Chongwu's body was soon covered in dense scales. He even grew a large tail with barbs at the bone grooves.

His blood-red eyes and foul-smelling drool rolling down were terrifying.

“The demonic transformation was completed almost instantly. The speed of the demonic transformation is much faster than Qing Yang Zi and Ghost Shark!”

Yu Siya frowned and couldn't help but shout at Xia Feng, “Husband, it's the black crystal in his hand! That thing helps with demonic transformation!”

Xia Feng nodded with a grim expression.

The black crystal was inserted into Old Man Chongwu's heart. While releasing waves of demonic energy, it gradually embedded itself in his chest, turning into a demonic crystal.

“Even the Azure Emperor doesn't have many of these demonic crystals. This time, he only distributed this one to me, the leader... Xia Feng kid, you should be proud to have forced me to this point.”

Old Man Chongwu's voice became incredibly sinister, and his appearance was terrifying and bloodthirsty.

Chapter 195: The Terrifying Demonic Fiend

After the demonic transformation, Old Man Chongwu's strength advanced by leaps and bounds, subtly stopping at the Peak of Heaven Rank Fifth Level Martial Emperor.

“This kind of evil technique is truly terrifying. From Heaven Rank First Level to Heaven Rank Fifth Level directly. What kind of power is this...”

Sun Yazhu swallowed her saliva, also stunned.

Although their Ten Absolute Formation could also boost Xia Feng to Heaven Rank Fourth Level, this was an Emperor-level High Grade Formation they had cultivated day and night, and it also required the Ten Girls to be in perfect harmony and work together to achieve this effect.

But how did Old Man Chongwu do it? With just this one secret technique, the effect was even stronger than the Emperor-level Formation unleashed by the combined efforts of ten Martial Emperors?!

Is there any logic to this?!

Looking at this inhuman and ghost-like demonic creature, Xia Feng's expression was not very good either.

The evil energy emanating from Old Man Chongwu truly didn't seem to belong to this world. This aura was probably no less, and perhaps even stronger, than the resentment in the Burial God Valley.
