Chapter 1396: Swindling

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The chaotic and violent world suddenly regained its calm.

Zhao Feng breathed a sigh of relief, a joyful look on his face. Even he had wondered just now if he could neutralize Yu Heng’s attack.

“We’re saved?” Ancient God Resplendence broke out of her daze, and she looked with sparkling eyes at Zhao Feng.

“How did he do it?” Ancient God Cheng Yun muttered in shock.

Meow!

The little thieving cat jumped onto Zhao Feng’s shoulder and began to dance around as if praising Zhao Feng’s might.

In the distance:

“To think... that there would be such a miraculous power!” Xin Wuheng was also in a daze, his mind reeling in shock as he stared at the distant Zhao Feng. He once more understood that, even though he had inherited the strength from his past life, he still might be left behind by Zhao Feng.

“Could this be the ultimate strength of the Illusion Dao?” Twilight Valley muttered.

The ultimate strength of the Illusion Dao was to make illusion into reality and turn reality into illusion.

“How could this be? How did that kid manage to do it?” Ancient God Ice Jade was stunned, unable to believe what she had seen. She was keenly aware of how strong Zhao Feng was before. How could he suddenly get so much stronger?

“Hurry and kill Ancient God Destruction Flow!” Zhao Feng messaged.

Thwish!

The little thieving cat was the first to strike, shooting toward Ancient God Destruction Flow as a gray-silver streak of light. Swoosh!

A cold and sinister silver dagger plunged into Ancient God Destruction Flow’s chest.

At the same time, Ancient God Cheng Yun attacked, his palms sending out an endless stream of Time energy blades.

“Ah...!” Ancient God Destruction Flow immediately began to scream.

“Chaos Origin God Suppressing Seal!” Zhao Feng circulated a massive amount of Chaos Origin Divine Power into an enormous seal of chaotic silver energy that crushed downward. The mountainous seal was surrounded by a bizarre devouring energy that consumed the various types of energy in the area to strengthen itself.

Boom! Bang!

The seal of turbid silver energy crashed down. The enormous and heavy power caused Ancient God Destruction Flow’s body and soul to fiercely tremble, and he vomited blood again and again.

Bzzz!

The twisted Chaos Origin energy began to devour his body and soul, bit by bit

“No...!” Ancient God Destruction Flow wanted to struggle, but he was already severely wounded and incapable of fighting back.

A few moments later, Ancient God Destruction Flow was completely dead.

“Didn’t you say that anyone on the same level as yourself, even one of the Eight Great God Eyes, couldn’t do anything to you?” Zhao Feng faintly smiled at Yu Heng.

“You...!” Yu Heng’s face contorted as he struggled to retort, but he couldn’t manage a response.

Although Zhao Feng’s eye-bloodline was extremely unusual, all the eye-bloodlines in the world originated from the God Eyes. Yu Heng had no defense. In addition, he had consumed special blood that allowed him to recover his bloodline energy and unleash a powerful attack, but this attack had been neutralized by a Rank Nine Ancient God. Yu Heng couldn’t help but be depressed.

“Ah, but you’re a member of the Heaven’s Legacy Race. We don’t really want to offend you!” Zhao Feng suddenly changed the topic.

These words left everyone stupefied and confused.

“What’s wrong with this kid?”

“Submitting?”

Ancient God Ice Jade and Ancient God Jailsea were both rather astonished.

Xin Wuheng also looked strangely at Zhao Feng, unaware of what he was planning.

“What do you mean?” Yu Heng directly asked.

Zhao Feng’s awakening, his neutralizing of Yu Heng’s secret art, and his killing of Ancient God Destruction Flow had truly lowered Yu Heng’s chances of victory, increasing the number of variables for the coming battle. But if Zhao Feng withdrew all on his own, Yu Heng had a one hundred percent chance of victory. However, he had a deep desire to kill the thorn in his side that was Zhao Feng as well as capture the Heaven’s Legacy Cat.

As a mighty member of the Heaven’s Legacy Race possessing the strength of the Ancient Race bloodline, he actually needed a Rank Nine Ancient God to withdraw before he could obtain victory? If his master or the other members of his race were to find out about this, he would be too ashamed to show his face.

But Zhao Feng was truly too bizarre; he was actually capable of neutralizing his Ancient Race energy. This caused Yu Heng to fall into silent thought

As Yu Heng fell silent, the Light Race members could no longer sit still. If Zhao Feng withdrew, they would be the ones facing disaster.

“My apologies, Sirs of the Light Race. I’m just an ordinary Rank Nine Ancient God while the Heaven’s Legacy Race is the 3rd ranked race....” Zhao Feng looked apologetically at the Light Race.

“This...” For a moment, Twilight Valley didn’t know how to respond.

Indeed, the Heaven’s Legacy Race was ranked 3rd among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races, a mythical race that was also responsible for the destruction of the Light Race. As a Rank Nine Ancient God, Zhao Feng truly had no need to fight to the death with the Heaven’s Legacy Race. Moreover, Zhao Feng had displayed abnormal strength, and the Heaven’s Legacy Race’s Yu Heng was highly likely to negotiate with Zhao Feng.

Meowmeow!

The little thieving cat immediately began to gesture at Twilight Valley and the Ancestral Artifact fragment

“What? You want me to submit to your master...?” The Ancestral Artifact fragment appeared startled.

The little thieving cat had made this proposal earlier, but the Ancestral Artifact fragment didn’t even pay much regard to God Lords, let alone Ancient Gods. But now, the Ancestral Artifact fragment couldn’t help but take another look at Zhao Feng.

“This...” Twilight Valley was instantly speechless.

They had no relationship with Zhao Feng or the Giant God Race and provided them no advantage. There truly was no need for them to put everything on the line to assist the Light Race.

But the Ancestral Artifact fragment had guarded this place the entire time and was devoted to the Light Race. How could he promise away the Ancestral Artifact fragment over a matter like this?

“Mm?” Yu Heng’s brow creased as he sensed that something was wrong.

Suddenly, his eyes flashed. He understood; Zhao Feng had no plans to compromise with him, but rather was intending to swindle something out of the Light Race.

But at this moment, the Ancestral Artifact fragment suddenly spoke, “Zhao Feng, as long as you help us defeat these people, I am willing to serve you!”

The Ancestral Artifact frag merit was willing to serve Zhao Feng, but it demanded that Yu Heng and Ancient Soul Hall be defeated first.

“Ancestral Artifact fragment, I agree to your request!” Zhao Feng put on a look of pleasant surprise mixed together with struggle, as if he found it very hard to resist this enormous temptation and finally decided to agree.

Meow!

The little thieving cat snickered as if celebrating the success of a plan.

“Haha, truly laughable! It’s like you think you’re actually going to win!” Yu Heng suddenly began to laugh.

He just realized that, even if Zhao Feng was able to neutralize his power, this had to come at great cost to Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng had just neutralized his secret art a moment ago, and he did not believe that Zhao Feng could keep on using this mysterious eye-bloodline technique.

Thwish!

After saying that, Yu Heng charged at Zhao Feng.

“Hand over your life!” Yu Heng’s expression turned harsh and cold, his body seething with killing intent.

“Not good! Stop him!” Xin Wuheng and Twilight Valley immediately charged out.

Their main hope in dealing with Yu Heng was Zhao Feng. Nothing could be allowed to happen to him.

Swoosh swoosh!

Twilight Valley was somewhat faster. He rapidly approached Yu Heng and unleashed a blade of Time energy with the Ancestral Artifact fragment.

This blade of Time energy ignored everything and directly appeared behind Yu Heng.

Boom!

With a thought from Yu Heng, a gold and silver stream of light erupted from his back and crashed into the blade of Time energy, annihilating it. Meanwhile, he continued to pursue Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng naturally wouldn’t just wait to be killed by Yu Heng.

Thwish!

historical

The golden wings on his back began to rapidly move, and he vanished in a streak of golden light

Truthfully, Zhao Feng really had expended an enormous amount of energy for that God Eye Illusory Oblivion. Aside from the obvious reason, the play he had performed with the little thieving cat was also to buy himself time to recover Origin energy.

“Kill Zhao Feng first!” Yu Heng roared.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The two half-step God Lords of Ancient Soul Hall immediately moved out

“Chaos Origin Divine Fist!” While Zhao Feng fled, he threw out several fists of chaotic silver energy.

Meanwhile, Xin Wuheng and Twilight Valley set off in pursuit of Yu Heng.

“Time Slash!” Twilight Valley waved the Ancestral Artifact fragment, creating a long and thin blade of crystalline white light in the air.

Thwish!

This blade was several thousand feet long as it hurtled through space.

Even before it struck, powerful Time energy engulfed Yu Heng and the two half-step God Lords, causing them to slow down.

“Damn you, Light Race...!” Yu Heng’s expression darkened.

The Light Race was ranked 7th among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races and was extremely difficult to deal with. But Zhao Feng was able to neutralize his attacks, so he needed to kill Zhao Feng first. If he allowed Zhao Feng to recover, he would have an even greater problem on his hands.

However, Zhao Feng possessed powerful Spacetime Intent and had the Spacetime Robe, a supreme-quality divine artifact, making him one of the fastest people here.

“Break!” Yu Heng suddenly stopped and waved his palm, shattering the enormous blade of light.

After dealing with Twilight Valley’s attack, Yu Heng did not continue to pursue. He quietly floated in the air, exuding a tyrannical and scornful aura.

Swish!

Another test tube the size of a finger appeared in front of him, gold and silver blood flowing within.

At the sight of this test tube, Xin Wuheng, Twilight Valley, and Zhao Feng all grimaced. The blood in these test tubes not only allowed Yu Heng to maintain his Ancient Race energy, but also allowed him to explode with even greater strength.

“It’s over.” Yu Heng faintly smiled.

The attack that he had unleashed before was neutralized by Zhao Feng. This time, after taking this liquid and unleashing another supreme attack, his target would be not Zhao Feng, but Xin Wuheng and Twilight Valley. If he could kill either one of them, everything would be over.

“No! Stop him!” Twilight Valley immediately roared.

The terrifying power Yu Heng emitted after taking this liquid was not something that either he or Xin Wuheng would be able to block.

How could this be...? The Heaven’s Legacy Race is truly hard to deal with!” Zhao Feng had a grim expression.

In this battle, the most formidable person was not any half-step God Lord, nor was it the reincarnated Xin Wuheng or the revived Light Race expert, but the peak Rank Nine Ancient God from the Heaven’s Legacy Race. And Zhao Feng truly did not have the ability to neutralize another one of Yu Heng’s formidable attacks at this time.

Boom!

Xin Wuheng’s and Twilight Valley’s attacks surged toward Yu Heng, but Yu Heng was suddenly surrounded by a barrier made up of gold and silver light. Any attack that collided against it would immediately crumble and weaken.

Cling! Crack!

The test tube shattered, the gold and silver blood flowing into Yu Heng’s mouth.

“Oh no!” Xin Wuheng’s expression dimmed. Now that Yu Heng had taken this liquid, his strength would reach unprecedented levels. Even he felt like retreating now.

“How could this be?” Ancient God Resplendence and Ancient God Cheng Yun felt like the world had become pitch-black. They only just emerged from the darkness before being plunged back in once more.

“No, this can’t be allowed!” Zhao Feng activated his left eye and focused on Yu Heng.

God Eye Illusory Oblivion! Zhao Feng gathered all the Origin energy that he could in his left eye.

Buzz! Bzzz!

Layer after layer of dreamy mist seeped into the world. In a flash, everything in Zhao Feng’s vision was covered in dreamy and beautiful colors.

“That is...?” Zhao Feng’s gaze froze. He saw a strange and dreamy liquid in Yu Heng’s mouth, flowing down his throat

It’s you...! Extinguish for me! Zhao Feng focused his thoughts on that liquid covered in dreamy light

Whoosh!

A moment later, that strange liquid collapsed and disappeared. Zhao Feng’s vision then returned to normal.

“Eh!?” Yu Heng licked his lips and shouted in alarm. What happened to the medicine I just took?
