“After all, you’re people with some reputation.”
“Against a junior like me, do you still need to gang up and bully the weak?” Chu Feng said.
“What do you want?” a Blood Devouring Hall expert asked.
“If I’m to die, at least let me die convinced. Is there anyone of my realm willing to face me one-on-one?” Chu Feng asked.
“What?”
Everyone was stunned. No one expected Chu Feng to make such a request when facing an overwhelming enemy.
“What’s wrong, scared?”
“You only know how to gang up and overpower the weak, too afraid to fight fair with your own strength?”
Seeing no response, Chu Feng’s tone turned sharply mocking.
“Why not?”
The Blood Devouring Hall expert gave a faint smile, then turned to the crowd of martial cultivators behind him, “Any Fifth Rank Venerables dare to face this Chu Feng?”
“My lord, I’ll do it.”
A man stepped forward, middle-aged, well-dressed, with an imposing aura.
Clearly, he was no ordinary figure.
And indeed, he wasn’t. He was a Fifth Rank Venerable, a martial cultivator of note.
Among the many experts, he didn’t stand out, but in the Great Thousand Upper Realm, he was a top-tier figure, someone who could dominate most.
Aside from the Chu Heavenly Clan’s leader, few would dare challenge such a person.
Because of his prominence, when he spoke, not only the onlookers from the Great Thousand Upper Realm but even the Chu Heavenly Clan members felt a chill of worry for Chu Feng.
Though Chu Feng’s current cultivation was Fifth Rank Venerable, it was boosted by his Lightning Mark and Lightning Armor.
His true cultivation was only Third Rank Venerable, while this man was a genuine Fifth Rank Venerable, having reached it step by step.
Facing such an expert, people had little confidence in Chu Feng’s ability to cope.
Clang—
The man didn’t waste words. Drawing his immortal-grade longsword, he pointed it at Chu Feng, “Listen well, Chu Feng. My name is Wu Jun, a Fifth Rank Venerable with a Heavenly Divine Body, capable of boosting my cultivation to Sixth Rank Venerable.”
“But for fairness, I won’t enhance my cultivation. I’ll face you as a Fifth Rank Venerable.”
“If you die by my sword, don’t say I bullied you.”
Chu Feng smirked disdainfully, “If you’ve got the skill, show it. Enough talk.”
“Hmph, arrogant brat, just like your father. Back then, I couldn’t defeat him, but today… I’ll make sure you die understanding.”
With a roar, sword qi surged, and he flew out from the crowd.
He was clever, not rushing directly at Chu Feng, knowing he couldn’t match him in a head-on clash.
He’d noticed Chu Feng’s weapon wasn’t an immortal-grade weapon but a half-formed Venerable weapon.
Aware of his weapon’s disadvantage and eager to win, he unleashed an immortal technique before getting close.
Roar—
Eight giant pythons, each a thousand meters long, materialized out of thin air.
Their writhing bodies shook the void.
The eight pythons, mouths agape, attacked Chu Feng from all directions.
Initially, Wu Jun worried Chu Feng might dodge, potentially evading his immortal technique.
But Chu Feng showed no intent to dodge. As the pythons entered attack range, a smug arc curved Wu Jun’s lips.
In his view, within this range, Chu Feng had nowhere to escape, only death awaited.
Swoosh—
But then, Chu Feng’s arm swept out.
Eight sword qi burst from his weapon, instantly severing all eight pythons.
“This guy?”
Wu Jun’s heart tightened. He knew his immortal technique wasn’t ordinary—it was his strongest move, his trump card.
Yet in front of Chu Feng, it was utterly ineffective?
“You can really boost to Sixth Rank?” Chu Feng’s voice suddenly rang out.
Hearing it, Wu Jun’s face changed, his body trembling in fear.
Chu Feng’s voice came from behind him, dangerously close.
Looking back at the Chu Heavenly Clan, he saw Chu Feng’s original spot was empty.
“Damn it.”
Sensing danger, Wu Jun prepared to flee.
Pfft—
Before he could move, a sharp pain pierced his dantian. Looking down, a longsword had stabbed through from behind.
It was Chu Feng, standing right behind him.
Swoosh—
With a sudden swing of Chu Feng’s arm, Wu Jun was cleaved in two.
Not only was his body severed, but his soul was also obliterated.
In a single exchange, Chu Feng had slain this Fifth Rank Venerable.
“So fast, such powerful combat strength.”
Seeing this, even the other Fifth Rank Venerables who had intended to act quietly sheathed their weapons.
From that brief clash, they could tell that while Chu Feng’s cultivation was Fifth Rank Venerable, his combat power was infinitely close to Sixth Rank.
Not to mention one-on-one, even if all the Fifth Rank Venerables attacked together, they likely couldn’t defeat him.
“So strong. To think, in such a short time, Chu Feng has grown to this level?”
“In the Great Thousand Upper Realm, aside from the Chu Heavenly Clan’s leader, no one can match him, right?”
“Chu Feng has surpassed his father back then!!!”
Witnessing Chu Feng’s prowess, many in the Great Thousand Upper Realm were dumbfounded.
Some even believed Chu Feng had surpassed his father, Chu Xuanyuan.
No wonder, since Chu Xuanyuan was only twenty-nine when he left, already at the peak of the Great Thousand Upper Realm.
Excluding the Chu Heavenly Clan’s leader, who had suddenly reached the peak of the Venerable realm, wasn’t Chu Feng, as a junior, now standing at the top of the Great Thousand Upper Realm?
But the stronger Chu Feng appeared, the more people’s hearts ached.
Such a genius might never appear again in the Great Thousand Upper Realm, yet he was destined to be cut down today.
This was something most in the Great Thousand Upper Realm didn’t want to see.
