Chu Linfeng was utterly shocked by the strange phenonon that occurred with this strike. At this mont, the giant dragon transford from the Sword Qi imdiately engulfed the Ghost Race’s Grand Elder, and in the blink of an eye, the elder’s body was shattered into pieces.
This terrifying attack power was sothing Chu Linfeng had never witnessed before. Even using his Qilin Arm wouldn’t necessarily unleash such a formidable attack. The power released from his rage was indeed horrific, but he knew it definitely had sothing to do with the appearance of Dragon Scales on his arm.
The phantom of the giant dragon did not vanish but continued to attack the other few people. All of this happened too briefly. Although these people were strong, they had no ti to react. In an instant, they all were attacked by the giant dragon and were almost simultaneously shattered into pieces. The dragon then disappeared, transforming back into the Cyan Frost Sword, which hovered in the air for a mont before flying back into Chu Linfeng’s hand.
One move! With just one move, all these individuals were slaughtered. It was sothing Chu Linfeng couldn’t have dread of, especially since these included strong individuals at the Fifth Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm. Although Chu Linfeng knew this was while dealing with a passive situation, he didn’t have such overwhelming attack power. There’s only two possible explanations for this situation: one being that the appearance of Dragon Scales on his arm suddenly consud more than half of his body’s Chaotic Dragon Power.
Another reason might be because of the Cyan Frost Sword. For the first ti, he couldn’t control this sword, which strangely flew on its own. The thought alone was perplexing. At this mont, the Dragon Scales on Chu Linfeng’s body had disappeared, and an overwhelming sense of exhaustion ca over him, similar to what happens after using the Qilin Arm.
"Sister Yue’Er, do you know what’s going on here? Why is the Cyan Frost Sword uncontrollable? How can the attack power be so formidable? Could it be the power of a Divine Slash?" Chu Linfeng asked the Sword Spirit.
"Lin Feng, this is likely due to the awakening of your Bloodline Power. Your anger unintentionally awakened a small portion of it, and Bloodline Power is not as simple as you imagine. Even I can’t explain it clearly now. When you fully awaken in the future, you’ll naturally understand," replied the Sword Spirit.
"Awakened Bloodline Power? That might be possible; otherwise, the Dragon Scales wouldn’t have appeared. It’d be great if this Bloodline Power were fully awakened. At that ti, there’d be no need to fear the Netherworld’s strongn; slaying the Netherworld Lord or the Ghost King would be a piece of cake," Chu Linfeng said.
"Your constitution differs from others, making the awakening of Bloodline Power extrely difficult. Especially now, only a third remains unawakened, but this third is the essence. Awakening even a little provides imnse power, as you’ve already experienced. As for why the Cyan Frost Sword flew off on its own, perhaps it’s due to being a Divine Weapon.
The attack power of this sword was imnse, and maybe you couldn’t control it, hence this phenonon. Don’t dwell on this matter. Solve the remaining issues. The Beast King is arriving quickly, and you must slay these two. If the Ghost King, Beast King, Netherworld Lord, and Human King Xiang Shaolong form an alliance, you and the Lord of Netherworld will have no place to stand," the Sword Spirit advised.
Upon hearing this, Chu Linfeng imdiately told Xiao Qiang and the Second Elder, "Xiao Qiang, you and the Second Elder must quickly return to the City Lord’s Mansion. In the secret chamber, take Ruoxi and Princess Yiyi out. Ruoxi is heavily injured, so you must protect her well. The Beast King is coming, and there will undoubtedly be an earth-shattering battle soon. I worry that Jiuyou City will be destroyed once again."
"Understood, you be careful! Life is priceless!" Xiao Qiang replied, then quickly departed with the Second Elder.
With no more concerns, Chu Linfeng felt considerably relieved. He flashed to the front of the Lord of Netherworld, saying, "This Jiuyou City was destroyed by the Ghost King, right? Let’s destroy his lair later. Beast King City is already in ruins. The Beast King is on his way here, father-in-law, I’ll leave the Beast King to you, and I’ll handle the Ghost King!"
"Lin Feng, be cautious; the Ghost King’s strength surpasses even the Beast King’s. After obtaining Illusory Immortal Grass, I could only fight him to a standstill; his prowess is evident. I think you should handle the Beast King instead; I’ll take care of this scoundrel. I won’t let him off for destroying Jiuyou City," the Lord of Netherworld said.
"Rest assured, father-in-law, I can handle him. You’re also heavily injured; just keep the Beast King occupied. Once I slay the Ghost King, I’ll assist you!" Chu Linfeng said.
At that mont, the Ghost King was entirely ignored by the two, which infuriated him as a top-level strongman. Although he was surprised by Chu Linfeng’s earlier display of attack power, he believed he could handle him, as he still had an ace in the hole left unused during the battle with the Lord of Netherworld.
If worse cos to worst, he’d use it, since his life was more important. "Kid, you’re the one who wiped out Wangtu City, right? My Ghost Race had no grievances with you, so why such ruthlessness? Now you’ve co knocking, you must pay for your actions," the Ghost King angrily said to Chu Linfeng.
"Oh, you’re not entirely clueless. Yes, I destroyed Wangtu City; your City Lord failed to understand the situation. But do you think you can slay ? The destruction of Jiuyou City has sealed your fate today. Your Black Spirit City will follow suit as well. Others might fear you, but I won’t. Co and show if your strength is as formidable as they say," Chu Linfeng said.
Just then, a ripple appeared in the air, followed by the ergence of the Beast King. At this mont, the Beast King’s expression was a mix of rage and madness, especially upon seeing Chu Linfeng. He nearly lost his mind in fury, "You scoundrel, prepare to die!"
The Beast King, without saying a word, picked up his axe and swung it at Chu Linfeng without the slightest hesitation, eager to kill him imdiately.
"Hey, old guy, are you picking the wrong target? Your opponent is the Netherworld Lord, or do you think I’m easy to bully because I’m young? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?" Chu Linfeng easily dodged the Beast King’s strike and said disdainfully.
The Netherworld Lord stood in front of the Beast King and said, "If you want to kill him, you have to get past first. Today, let see how powerful the so-called invincible Beast King truly is!"
After speaking, the Netherworld Lord’s palm quickly emitted a blue light, and he shouted, "Nether Illusion Space!" This was the first ti he used this Illusion Art after obtaining the Illusory Immortal Grass, and he didn’t have ti to use it in the fight against the Ghost King. But now, he had to trap the Beast King within the Illusion Realm.
Having been injured, he might not be a match for the Beast King, but the Nether Illusion Space could delay for a considerable ti, perhaps enough for Chu Linfeng to slay the Ghost King, making dealing with the Beast King foolproof afterwards.
Upon hearing the Netherworld Lord shout Nether Illusion Space, the Beast King’s expression changed drastically. In the Netherworld, so people knew the terrifying aspects of this Nether Illusion Space. Although the Illusion Realm had no real attack power, it could cause those who entered to experience many terrifying illusions.
Sotis, without the need for the user of Nether Illusion Space to act, one might harm themselves by seeing things within the illusion, such as appearing to be strangled, struggling to release themselves, yet the more they struggle, the tighter it gets, leading to suffocation and death.
There are instances where one sees their closest loved ones suddenly turn against them or do sothing heartbreaking, causing despair and overwhelming grief, leading them to lose the will to live and do sothing drastic...
The current situation for the Beast King was that he had fallen into the Netherworld Lord’s Nether Illusion Space. To break out of this Nether Illusion Space, one would have to find the realm’s exit point, which was an extrely difficult task, sothing the Beast King, with his knowledge of Illusion Realms, was unlikely to achieve.
"Lin Feng, the Beast King is now trapped in the Illusion Realm by and won’t bother you for the ti being. You need to deal with the Ghost King as soon as possible. Since I’m injured, I can only trap him for about half an hour. Whether we can leave today is up to you." The Netherworld Lord transmitted secretly to Chu Linfeng.
"Understood, Father-in-law, rest assured, today I will make the Ghost King pay for the people of Jiuyou City with his life!" Chu Linfeng said.
"Boy, let see just how arrogant you really are!" the Ghost King said, and in a flash, a massive Sword Aura slashed towards Chu Linfeng.
Chu Linfeng, without holding back, swiftly wielded the Cyan Frost Sword to unleash Star Slash; against a powerhouse like the Ghost King, he would not reserve anything.
In an instant, their attacks collided, and the force of their attacks created a powerful energy storm in the surrounding space, making it seem as though the entire space was about to collapse, constantly shifting but unable to break open.
This clash sent both of them flying several hundred ters before they regained their stance. Chu Linfeng felt his chest’s blood and Qi churning violently, and he forced down a reversal of blood that reached his throat.
He gained a new understanding of the Ghost King’s strength; this old guy’s attack power was even more formidable than the Beast King’s, and no wonder the Netherworld Lord got injured. It seems that to deal with him, only the Qilin Arm could be used, and perhaps an awakening of Bloodline Power would help, but awakening this power is so challenging.
Chu Linfeng was shocked, and the Ghost King was even more so. He felt that this kid’s attack was stronger than the Netherworld Lord’s, his chest’s blood and Qi also churning non-stop, and an arm almost went numb enough to nearly drop his sword. This was the first ti he encountered such a situation, making him even more cautious regarding Chu Linfeng.
Chu Linfeng was crazily circulating the remaining Chaotic Dragon Power within him, ready to unleash a powerful Star Slash with the Qilin Arm, while the Ghost King was channeling his Nether Power to use the Heaven-defying Martial Skill that harms both sides—Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique.
