“Them? Who are you talking about when you say ‘them’?”
Yin Tianchou’s brows knitted tightly together, and his body actually began to retreat. Panic appeared on his face.
“You will know very soon.”
As soon as Chu Feng finished speaking, a roar even more piercing than thunder suddenly erupted from within his body.
Boom.
Immediately afterwards, vast flames of aura burst out from Chu Feng’s body like a volcanic eruption.
Those flames surged forth, shooting straight into the sky.
Whether in terms of power or volume, they far surpassed Yin Tianchou’s.
Moreover, they possessed five different colours, formed by the fusion of white, grey, blue, purple, and gold.
The five colours resembled five ferocious giant beasts. Faint low roars and growls could even be heard coming from within the flames.
Although the sounds were not particularly clear, this was something that Yin Tianchou’s boundary bloodline did not possess.
If the number of colours was the standard for judging strength when a boundary bloodline’s power was fully revealed, then Chu Feng’s boundary bloodline was several times stronger than Yin Tianchou’s.
“Damn it.”
Seeing the boundary bloodline that Chu Feng had released, Yin Tianchou’s face became distorted.
After saying those words, white radiance bloomed from his body.
That radiance only appeared for an instant.
Yet when the white radiance vanished, Yin Tianchou had disappeared as well.
“He escaped?”
“That fellow actually managed to escape?”
Although Chu Feng was very unwilling to accept it, he could confirm that Yin Tianchou had indeed fled.
It turned out that Yin Tianchou had possessed a means of escape from the very beginning.
“Is this the boundary bloodline bestowed upon me by my mother?”
After Yin Tianchou escaped, Chu Feng raised his head and began to observe the boundary bloodline he had released.
The boundary bloodline had always flowed within his body. Chu Feng had used its power many times before.
He had not only used it to resist poison, but also to control formations, and it could even grant him a one-grade increase in battle power.
The reason Chu Feng could fight Yin Tianchou despite being only at the second level of Dragon Transformation relied not just on the Nine Dragons Saint Robe, but also on his own boundary bloodline.
However, this was the first time he had fully released his boundary bloodline and seen its true form so completely.
Presumably, it was this silver bowl known as the Bloodline Space that had allowed his boundary bloodline to reveal its true appearance and display part of its power.
Although equally powerful, Chu Feng’s boundary bloodline was very beautiful, unlike his Divine Lightning bloodline.
It floated in the air above in the form of flames, shining like the aurora, yet even more beautiful than the aurora because it possessed five colours. The five colours glowed simultaneously, creating a dazzling spectacle that shook the heart.
Such beauty moved Chu Feng deeply. After all, such immense power belonged to him.
Hum.
Suddenly, the silver bowl hovering above Chu Feng’s head began to shrink. At the same time, the boundary bloodline he had released was affected and automatically returned to his body.
Soon, the silver bowl returned to its original size, and the surroundings reverted to their original appearance.
“This really is a treasure.”
“But unfortunately, it has already recognised an owner.”
Chu Feng caught the silver bowl and tried to sense its power carefully.
Yet he discovered that the silver bowl rejected his probing. Although it was in his hand, it was not under his control.
It had already recognised an owner. Chu Feng guessed that its master was most likely Yin Tianchou.
Breaking the contract between them did not seem to be an easy task.
“Bloodline Space? What a fine treasure.”
Although Chu Feng could not control the silver bowl, he greatly admired it. If such a treasure could be used by him, it would surely become a major trump card when facing difficult fellow boundary spiritists like Yin Tianchou in the future.
Moreover, the reason he had been able to repel Yin Tianchou today relied on it.
At this thought, Chu Feng actually felt a little grateful towards Yin Tianchou.
Originally, Chu Feng had not known how to defeat him.
He had never expected Yin Tianchou to pull such a move, directly forcing himself into a desperate situation.
It truly was a desperate situation. Given the gap between their boundary bloodlines, if Yin Tianchou had not used special means to escape, he would undoubtedly have died.
“This humble girl is Zhao Mingyue. Many thanks to my benefactor for saving my life.”
Suddenly, a voice filled with gratitude rang out from behind Chu Feng.
It was the woman whom Chu Feng had rescued from Yin Tianchou. She was now kneeling behind him.
The woman had not only put on the clothes Chu Feng had given her, but under the healing effects of his pellet, her injuries had recovered considerably. Although her complexion was still poor, at least her external wounds had vanished.
This woman was truly quite attractive. Though not a peerless beauty, she could be considered a refined and elegant one.
Thinking that such a woman had nearly been violated by a beast like Yin Tianchou, Chu Feng felt some pity.
But that pity quickly passed.
It was not that Chu Feng had a heart of stone, but in this world, such injustices occurred almost every moment.
Chu Feng had encountered this one. The countless incidents he had not encountered were far more excessive.
Unless he controlled the entire vast martial cultivation world, he could never truly stop them.
“No need for thanks. You should find a place to hide and not continue deeper.”
Chu Feng said to the woman. He hoped she would leave this place quickly to avoid further danger.
“Benefactor, please wait.”
“This humble girl still does not know my benefactor’s honoured name.”
The woman said.
“It was merely a small effort, not worth mentioning.”
Chu Feng had intended to leave directly.
Yet before he could move, the woman threw herself forward with a thud and tightly hugged his leg.
“Benefactor, to you this may be a small effort, but to me it preserved my life.”
“For my benefactor’s great kindness, this humble girl has no way to repay it, but at the very least I must know who saved me.”
“Benefactor, I beg you.”
As the woman spoke, her eyes reddened, and tears were about to fall.
“Alright, alright. My name is Chu Feng.”
“Young lady, please let go of me quickly. If you do not, I will be eliminated, and then you would be repaying kindness with enmity.”
Chu Feng said helplessly.
“I am sorry, benefactor. This humble girl was impolite.”
Only upon hearing this did the woman react. She hurriedly released Chu Feng.
After leaving the area, Chu Feng was extremely anxious. He did not fear Yin Tianchou’s revenge. What he feared was failing to collect all five keys, and even more, failing to find Song Yun.
Especially now, more than half the time since the assessment began had already passed.
During this period, many formations containing keys must have been discovered by others.
The opportunities left for Chu Feng were growing fewer.
Yet suddenly, Chu Feng’s expression brightened. Although he had not seen any formation containing a key, he had spotted a large group of boundary spiritists.
Among these boundary spiritists, some Chu Feng had seen before. Before entering the Pregnancy Forest, some of them had mocked him.
Chu Feng also noticed that several of them had boundary keys hanging at their waists.
Most amusingly, these fellows were not only travelling together but also shared a common topic. They were uniformly criticising the same person.
And the person they were criticising was none other than Chu Feng.
“It seems heaven has not treated me poorly.”
A smile once again appeared on Chu Feng’s previously tense face.
