The technique Chu Feng was currently unleashing was the Immortal Forbidden Blood Thunder Technique, a forbidden martial skill he had obtained in the Yuan Sea Sacred Mountain.
Speaking of this Immortal Forbidden Blood Thunder Technique, back when Chu Feng had just stepped into the Great Thousand Upper Realm, he had stumbled into the Yuan Sea Sacred Mountain and casually picked up this forbidden martial skill off the ground.
Who would’ve thought that such a casual find would yield such a formidable technique?
Back then, when Chu Feng first entered the Great Thousand Upper Realm, he was merely a True Immortal.
But now, he had reached the Venerable Realm, his progress nothing short of miraculous.
Yet, despite such a massive leap in his cultivation, the Immortal Forbidden Blood Thunder Technique remained his most powerful offensive skill.
This only deepened the awe for the Yuan Sea Sacred Mountain’s wonders. Chu Feng even regretted not exploring it more thoroughly back then.
Had he done so, he might have picked up even greater treasures.
After all, a random find had given him the mighty Immortal Forbidden Blood Thunder Technique. If he had searched diligently, he surely would’ve found something even more incredible.
Of course, it wasn’t as if Chu Feng had gained nothing else since entering the Great Thousand Upper Realm.
For instance, not long ago, in the Void Sacred Tree, the Blood Devouring Demon Venerable had gifted him the secret skill, Demon Venerable’s Descent.
And within the Chu Heavenly Clan, after ascending to the tenth level of the Heavenly Lightning Platform, he obtained the Heavenly Thunder Nine Slashes.
These were both extremely powerful techniques, especially the Heavenly Thunder Nine Slashes, whose power was almost immeasurable, a truly heaven-defying skill.
But the more heaven-defying the technique, the harder it was to master.
Thus, for now, the Immortal Forbidden Blood Thunder Technique remained Chu Feng’s strongest attack.
When he unleashed it, it indeed shocked the younger generation present.
At the very least, its aura was terrifying.
“Hahaha…”
But who would’ve thought that, as the juniors were intimidated by the sky full of blood-red lightning, a mocking laugh rang out—it was Nangong Yifan.
People were puzzled by his sudden laughter.
But when he spoke, it became clear.
“I thought you were going to use some heaven-defying technique, but it’s just an Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill.”
“Chu Feng, if you wanted to counter a Fifth Rank Immortal Technique with an Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill, that’d be one thing.”
“But to think you can resist my Ninth Rank Immortal Technique, Dark Ghost Flame, with a mere Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill? You’ve been driven to a dead end, haven’t you? Out of options?”
Nangong Yifan sneered at Chu Feng, genuinely finding his actions laughable.
“What? That’s an Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill?”
“I thought it was a Ninth Rank Immortal Technique with such an aura.”
After Nangong Yifan’s words, the crowd’s emotions shifted.
Everyone knew that no matter how strong an Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill was, it could only contend with a Fifth Rank Immortal Technique.
To challenge a Ninth Rank Immortal Technique was sheer fantasy.
“Whether it works or not isn’t up to you—it’s up to the result,” Chu Feng said.
“Fine, then I’ll show you the consequences of underestimating me.”
Roar—
Suddenly, a surge of black flames erupted from Nangong Yifan’s body.
The black flames soared skyward, transforming into a massive figure.
Upon closer inspection, the figure was identical to Nangong Yifan.
Standing ten thousand meters tall, holding a halberd, it charged at Chu Feng.
In comparison, the giant figure was like a god descending, while Chu Feng seemed like a mere mortal.
As the figure attacked, it felt like a divine judgment on a commoner, the power gap so vast it tightened everyone’s hearts.
Nangong Yifan moved swiftly, reaching Chu Feng in a few strides, raising the halberd to strike.
“Not good. This isn’t an ordinary halberd—it’s formed from the Dark Ghost Flame. If this strike lands, within its range, Chu Feng can’t dodge. Even if he avoids the halberd, the spreading Dark Ghost Flame will injure him.”
Seeing this, even Lord Shoujian frowned, his nerves taut, ready to stop the fight.
He knew this strike could kill Chu Feng, and he wouldn’t allow that.
If Chu Feng couldn’t counter it, he would intervene to block the attack.
Of course, he wouldn’t act unless absolutely necessary.
Because if he did, it would mean Chu Feng had lost the duel.
Rumble—
But at that moment, thunder roared, and the blood-red light grew blindingly intense.
Blood-red lightning bolts, like blood-colored dragons, roared as they struck down from the void, all converging on the same spot.
Every bolt targeted Nangong Yifan.
Most crucially, the supposedly indestructible black flames began to scatter under the lightning’s assault.
Each blood dragon’s strike left devastating marks, and with relentless barrages, the damage piled up.
In mere moments, the towering figure between heaven and earth was battered beyond recognition, teetering on collapse.
“Heavens, too strong. Is Chu Feng really using an Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill to break Nangong Yifan’s Ninth Rank Immortal Technique?”
“This is unheard of.”
Seeing the black flames falter under the blood lightning’s onslaught, many juniors couldn’t believe their eyes.
This shattered their understanding of martial techniques.
If they hadn’t seen it themselves, they’d never believe an Immortal Forbidden Martial Skill could suppress a Ninth Rank Immortal Technique.
“Damn it, don’t get cocky!!!”
Nangong Yifan roared, and the scattered black flames regrouped, forming countless giant black hands grabbing at Chu Feng.
But before they could reach him, the blood lightning struck, severing them in midair.
Meanwhile, the blood lightning continued to bombard Nangong Yifan’s main body.
The sky was filled with blood lightning, and powerful ripples spread outward.
Soon, the ripples formed a devastating hurricane, sweeping outward.
If not for Lord Shoujian sealing it with his pressure, the hurricane alone could’ve killed most of the juniors present.
As the hurricane raged, the juniors could no longer see clearly, only glimpses of red light flashing through the ripples.
This lasted for some time before gradually subsiding.
Between heaven and earth, aside from the lingering ripples, there was no sound.
When the blood lightning’s noise stopped, everyone fell silent, even holding their breath.
They stared intently at the battlefield, knowing the sudden silence likely meant the fight was decided.
They all wanted to know who had won.
But the ripples obscured their view, hiding the outcome.
