Chapter 5736: Extraordinary Power?

Dont say that. Its with your own capability that you reached your current height. I didnt do much to help. However, theres one matter I may need to trouble you with. Im going to enter the Ninth Galaxy very soon. You also know those who enter the Ninth Galaxy wont be able to leave anymore. Ill be leaving very soon, or else I might miss some fortuitous encounters.

However, I suspect theres something special about this iteration of the Nine Heavens Zenith, especially since its held here. I fear that an extraordinary power might emerge from this, and that might alarm some existences, Zhang Yingxiongs master said.

Elder, could the extraordinary power you speak about refer to Song Changsheng thought of a possibility.

Its as you have guessed, Zhang Yingxiongs master said.

Song Changshengs eyes turned grim. Is it finally going to appear?

Im not sure, but those existences will vie for it if it does. If its a fight between juniors, itll just go to the most capable one. However, itll be unfair if those from the older generations interfere. Changsheng, I know you dont like to get involved in such affairs, but things are different this time around. I honestly hope that the Nine Heavens Zenith can be successfully held, Zhang Yingxiongs master said.

Elder, Ill do my best to fulfill your wish, Song Changsheng said.

Mm. Lets hope no one will cause trouble there, Zhang Yingxiongs master said.

Chu Feng and Zhang Yingxiong crossed blows for two hours, but there was no victor. The formation dissipated, and the wooden swords in their hands disappeared. They were brought from the formation realm back to the real world.

By then, the two of them were sweating profusely and gasping for air. This spar had taken a lot out of them. Neither could let their guard down as their opponent was simply too powerful, or else the slightest carelessness could result in their defeat.

Maintaining an extreme state of focus was no easy feat.

Despite being thoroughly exhausted in body and in mind, both of them were smiling brightly. They might not have decided a victor, but it was an exhilarating fight for them.

Youre truly a monster, Brother Chu Feng, Zhang Yingxiong exclaimed.

The same can be said about you too, Chu Feng replied.

He had personally experienced how formidable Zhang Yingxiong was during the clash. Not only did the latter have plenty of combat experience, but his mind was also flexible enough to deal with any unexpected situation. On top of that, his swordsmans.h.i.+p was incredible too.

The next time we spar will likely be in the Immemorial Domain of G.o.ds. I believe youll be able to cross blows with me with your own cultivation by then, Zhang Yingxiong said.

Lets hope so, Chu Feng replied with a sigh.

He knew that this fight couldnt be considered fair, as the formation had handicapped Zhang Yingxiong more than him. Had it been a normal battle, he would have lost straight away.

Ill give this to you, Zhang Yingxiong said as he pointed his finger at Chu Feng, and a streak of light seeped into the latters body.

Chu Feng lowered his head and saw an imprint on his chest, but the imprint swiftly disappeared. It could no longer be found on his body or in his soul, but he could still sense it. Something appeared to be hidden in the imprint, but he couldnt tell what it was.

Thus, he looked at Zhang Yingxiong and asked, What is that?

Im not sure either. My master tasked me to give it to you. Youll know what it is when the time is right, Zhang Yingxiong said.

Im really curious about your master.

Youll know in due time. My master has a high opinion of you.

Zhang Yingxiong walked up to Chu Feng and placed his hand on the Heaven-devouring Qilins imprint on his chest. You better not mess around. Trust me, you dont want to offend this brother of mine. If anything happens to him, youll die.

Needless to say, those words were directed to Heaven-devouring Qilin. He could actually see through the imprint!

Chu Feng wasnt too surprised though, as he knew that Zhang Yingxiongs master was a person with great means.

After issuing a warning to the Heaven-devouring Qilin, Zhang Yingxiong turned to Chu Feng, clasped his fist, and said, Brother Chu Feng, Ill be leaving first. See you in the Immemorial Domain of G.o.ds.

He formed a hand seal, and a surge of teleportation energy enveloped him. Before he left, he hesitantly looked at Chu Feng and said, Brother Chu Feng, you need to be careful when dealing with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion and that grandfather of yours too. Neither of them are as simple as they seem.

Zhang Yingxiong left after leaving those words behind.

Chu Feng fell into deep thoughts.

He had known that the waters in the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion ran deeper than what he could see, but he hadnt expected Zhang Yingxiong to offer him a warning about the Seven Realms Sacred Mansions Mansion Master. Given Zhang Yingxiongs background, it was best to take his words seriously.

Zhang Yingxiong returned to the boat, where his master was awaiting him. As soon as he appeared, he slumped to the ground and lay weakly.

Injured? Zhang Yingxiongs master asked.

No, Im just exhausted from the battle, Zhang Yingxiong replied with a smile.

Whats your impression of Chu Feng?

I might lose to him at this rate.

Its good you realize that, lest you think youre really invincible.

The boat began to move at an extremely fast speed toward the Ninth Galaxy.

Master, are the juniors of the Ninth Galaxy even more formidable? Zhang Yingxiong asked.

Not necessarily. You might have already met the strongest juniors out there. You shouldnt look down on the juniors gathered at the Nine Heavens Zenith. There might be others aside from Chu Feng who can match you, Zhang Yingxiongs master said.

Oh? Zhang Yingxiong was initially taken aback, then an expectant smile formed on his lips. That sounds interesting.

Chu Feng took a moment to condition himself before stepping into the test ground.

The moment he pa.s.sed through the peculiar palace doors, he found himself restrained by a tremendous surge of energy. The surge of energy removed his concealment before diving into his body to attack his soul.

This was probably the first trial. Those who failed to endure it would be eliminated.

Such a test usually wouldnt even faze Chu Feng, but he was in an extremely weakened state after spending two hours fighting a hyper-intense battle with Zhang Yingxiong. It was torturous for him to undergo the trial in his current state.

Nevertheless, he still managed to hold on.

By the time the energy disappeared, Chu Feng was already standing in the midst of a ma.s.sive mountain range. He could sense that he was in a humongous and complicated realm, and it wouldnt be an easy feat to clear this test.

He glanced at the countdown in the sky, which indicated that the test would soon end. No one else was around him, as those who wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the Nine Heavens Zenith had already challenged the test by now. There was no point entering at this juncture, and it was impossible to clear it within such a short period of time.

Chu Feng knew that he needed to hurry, but it was hard to do so in a weakened state. He had barely conditioned his state, but he had to exert himself a fair bit in the earlier formation. This resulted in a decline in the keenness of his observation and other attributes.

Thus, instead of advancing ahead, he took out a pill and sat on the floor, preparing to condition his state once more.

Who is it? Chu Feng suddenly sensed someone in the vicinity and quickly got up.

Several figures appeared in the distance and quickly approached him. Within moments, they had already encircled him.
