The Venerable Forbidden Wind Dragon Chant, a six-stage Venerable Forbidden skill.
This was created by an ancestor of our clan during a battle against the heavens with storms, when he fought the Wind Dragon. It was comprehended from the Wind Dragon’s attacks, and it is the strongest martial technique among our clan’s six-stage Venerable Forbidden skills.
…
This was the introduction to this martial technique.
Though it was only two short lines of information, it already showed how extraordinary this technique was.
“A martial technique comprehended from battling a Wind Dragon.”
“The ancestor of the Storm Mad Clan was truly remarkable.”
This martial technique had now been mastered by Chu Feng.
He could feel how powerful it was.
Although he had obtained such a formidable technique, Chu Feng did not dare to be careless. Instead, he hurried to the other end of the space.
However, when Chu Feng stood before the boundary gate, he stopped again.
He turned back to look at the empty space behind him, lost in thought.
“Has it really ended here?”
“What did that voice mean when I first entered this place?”
Chu Feng felt a touch of emotion. The space that had been so terrifying earlier had now become so quiet.
Everything seemed truly over, yet some mysteries remained unresolved in Chu Feng’s heart.
For example, the very first voice that appeared when he entered.
And why had a six-stage Venerable Forbidden martial technique appeared here?
It felt as though it had been tailor-made specifically for Chu Feng.
“I understand now.”
Suddenly, Chu Feng had an epiphany. He figured everything out.
“No wonder, when I first entered this place, a force surged into my body, and then that voice accurately stated my cultivation level.”
“It turns out this place provides martial techniques based on the cultivator’s level.”
“The grade of the technique differs, and so does the difficulty here.”
“However, my cultivation is sixth-rank Sovereign, so the difficulty of breaking the formation should have been for a five-stage Venerable Forbidden skill.”
“Yet the difficulty I faced was that of a six-stage Venerable Forbidden skill.”
“It seems the Storm Mad Clan deliberately designed it this way. The difficulty here is meant to exceed the cultivator’s own strength. Only then would it truly challenge them.”
Thinking of this, Chu Feng felt some regret.
If the rules here were truly as he guessed, then there were definitely more than one martial technique hidden in this place.
If he had come here not at the Sovereign realm, but at the Martial Venerable realm, would he not have obtained an even more powerful technique?
“Forget it. Contentment brings happiness. Sometimes a person must learn to be content.”
Chu Feng knew regret was useless. Rather than dwelling on it here, he would be better off seeking another opportunity to return when his cultivation was stronger.
Thus, Chu Feng stepped through the boundary gate, preparing to leave this place.
But the moment Chu Feng passed through the boundary gate, he realised he had miscalculated.
Leaving this place was not going to be that easy…
…
While Chu Feng was desperately trying to escape the space inside the Ice Dragon’s mouth.
Outside, the competition continued without pause…
At this moment, in the world of the Storm Fighting Dragon Platform, the layer of clouds had already dissipated, and the entire world once again appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Below the towering mountain peak, a large number of juniors had gathered. Most of them were injured, and some with severe wounds had even died, as if they had just gone through a fierce battle.
At the very top of the towering mountain peak, three figures remained.
They were Yu Lie, Long Xiaoxiao, and the last one was the black-clothed youth who had previously provoked Chu Feng.
Ever since Chu Feng had entered the gate in the Ice Dragon’s mouth, the Fire Dragon and Ice Dragon had fought and left this place, and the juniors here had not suffered any further tribulations.
All the juniors had successfully reached the top of this towering mountain peak.
After ascending the peak, the juniors began to spar. All those who lost would be forcibly teleported by the power of the formation from the top of the peak to the area below.
Just a moment ago, Yu Lie and Long Xiaoxiao had also engaged in a confrontation.
“Miss Long, I admit my skills are inferior.”
Yu Lie smiled and cupped his fist towards Long Xiaoxiao.
Immediately after, a boundary appeared around his body. Once it completely enveloped him, he was teleported from the top of the towering mountain peak to the area below, joining the other juniors.
As Yu Lie also left the peak top, waves of exclamation echoed through this realm.
Although people had long known that Long Xiaoxiao was no ordinary person, they had not expected that a genius of Yu Lie’s level would lose to her.
If Long Xiaoxiao could successfully defeat the black-clothed youth, she would become the strongest in this junior hegemony competition.
Yet people also felt that things would not be so simple.
Because the black-clothed youth had been the first to reach the top of this towering mountain peak.
And by now, people knew that this black-clothed youth was the strange fellow named Wu Fei Shi Jie Deng Er.
At first, people had wondered if he might be some genius they had simply forgotten.
But after seeing his appearance, they confirmed once again that they truly did not recognise him.
If one or two people did not know him, that would be one thing, but with so many present and none recognising him, it was rather suspicious.
For now, people could only temporarily guess that he was the disciple of some hidden expert.
He had been in secluded cultivation all this time and had not emerged, which was why no one knew him.
But regardless of whose disciple he was, today this young man would, like Long Xiaoxiao, become renowned throughout the Heavenly River.
Even if he lost, his name would still resound far and wide.
After all, he was the first to reach the top of the towering mountain peak.
Yet people hoped that Long Xiaoxiao could defeat this black-clothed youth.
Not for any other reason, but simply because he was far too arrogant.
He was the first to reach the peak, so unless all later challengers had finished their duels, no one could challenge him.
Even so, a normal person would at least watch the other duels.
But this black-clothed youth did not. After reaching the peak and learning the rules, he simply lay down in mid-air and went to sleep.
This attitude showed complete disregard for all the other juniors.
Moreover, someone had deciphered his name and found it seemed to have another meaning.
Wu Fei Shi Jie Deng Er.
The name was chaotic and extremely strange.
But if read backwards, it became smooth.
Er Deng Jie Shi Fei Wu.
This was clearly a homophone for “You lot are all trash.”
If it was unintentional, that would be one thing, but if deliberate, it was an insult to all the juniors present.
No matter how one looked at it, everyone felt he had done it on purpose.
Unknown identity, extreme arrogance. These combined made him very unlikeable.
With a personality like his, even if he possessed extraordinary talent, his growth might not necessarily be a good thing.
Therefore, everyone hoped Long Xiaoxiao could defeat him.
“It’s your turn next.”
After Yu Lie left the peak top, Long Xiaoxiao turned her gaze towards the black-clothed youth.
“Ohhhh~~~”
The black-clothed youth first yawned widely, stretched lazily, and only then looked at Long Xiaoxiao.
“Hey, the girl has some skill.”
“I didn’t expect it would be you standing here in the end.”
Looking at Long Xiaoxiao, the black-clothed youth seemed somewhat surprised.
“If you’re afraid, you can forfeit now.”
Long Xiaoxiao’s eyes were filled with hostility.
After all, from the very first moment she saw him, she had placed this black-clothed youth on her list of enemies.
“Forfeit?”
“Hahaha…”
Hearing Long Xiaoxiao’s words, the black-clothed youth burst into loud laughter.
After a bout of wild laughter, he looked at her again.
“Girl, you’re only seventh-rank Sovereign. Even if you forcibly raise your cultivation with bloodline power, you’re merely eighth-rank Sovereign. You’re no match for me at all.”
“And let me remind you, I’m not the type to show mercy to the fairer sex. I won’t hold back just because you’re a woman or because you look pretty.”
“If I don’t make a move, that’s one thing. But if I do, blood will definitely be drawn.”
“So I advise you: rather than pointlessly challenging me and getting injured, it’s better to give up early and avoid unnecessary suffering.”
After saying this, the black-clothed youth stood up.
Boom.
Immediately afterwards, surging power erupted from his body.
Even the surrounding space was shattered.
That was his oppressive might.
The oppressive might swept out, instantly covering the heavens and earth.
Not to mention on the peak, even those below could sense his cultivation.
He was an eighth-rank Sovereign.
