“Are you alright?”
Chu Feng looked towards Xiao Yu. As he asked this, he waved his hand, and a healing formation landed on Xiao Yu.
Under the power of the formation, not only did Xiao Yu’s wounds begin to heal, but even the bloodstains on his body were wiped away.
“Just some flesh wounds.”
Xiao Yu did not know if it was out of embarrassment or some other reason, but he spoke with his head lowered, not looking at Chu Feng.
However, his voice was no longer as domineering as before. Instead, it was extremely gentle.
“Good to know you’re fine.”
Chu Feng smiled. He was long accustomed to Xiao Yu’s cold demeanour.
In truth, he genuinely felt sorry towards both Xiao Yu and Xia Yan.
After all, he had seen their bodies for free.
“Chu Feng, you bloke, you’re way too strong.”
“You’re that weakened, and you can still thrash Gongsun Yuntian like that.”
Xia Yan came to Chu Feng’s side, her face full of delight.
“You didn’t remind me. I almost forgot. These fellows still need dealing with.”
Chu Feng also turned his gaze towards Gongsun Yuntian and the others.
They remained in place, not attempting to flee, because they knew full well that against someone like Chu Feng, escape was impossible.
But Chu Feng felt that things might not be so simple.
Buzz.
Suddenly, a reddish glow appeared on Gongsun Yuntian’s body.
The glow emanated from his heart area, flickering in time with his heartbeat.
The moment that red glow emerged, Chu Feng’s brows furrowed slightly.
Xia Yan and Xiao Yu might not sense it, but Chu Feng could clearly feel the change occurring in Gongsun Yuntian.
Gongsun Yuntian’s body also harboured the formation power of the Thousand Transformations Illusionary Palace.
In fact, Chu Feng’s earlier punch could have killed Gongsun Yuntian outright.
The reason he had not died was precisely because a certain power had protected him.
If Chu Feng was not mistaken, Gongsun Yuntian possessed some supreme treasure that had fused with his heart.
The treasure that had just saved his life was now granting him power as well.
As this power surged forth, the blood on Gongsun Yuntian’s face was absorbed, and his originally mangled features began to recover.
Even his body, which had been lying on the ground, floated up into the air.
His presence was far more formidable than when he had previously unleashed his Dragon Transformation Fifth Rank power.
“What’s happening to this guy?”
Seeing Gongsun Yuntian like this, although Xia Yan and Xiao Yu did not know why he had changed so, they could still sense how terrifying he now was.
“Yuntian, you… you’ve actually mastered it to this extent?”
Upon witnessing this transformation in Gongsun Yuntian, the Gongsun family geniuses, whose faces had been ashen with despair, now showed expressions of joy.
They looked as if they had glimpsed a ray of hope for salvation amid utter hopelessness.
“Chu Feng, in the end, I still underestimated you.”
“Though I already knew you had grasped the power here.”
“I never imagined you had mastered it to such a degree.”
“Just where do you come from? Which force stands behind you, or who is your master?”
Gongsun Yuntian fired a series of questions at Chu Feng.
“Why ask all this? Are you scared?”
Chu Feng countered.
“Scared? Do you think you’re qualified to scare me?”
Gongsun Yuntian asked.
“Not qualified?”
“Who was it just now that I beat until he was scrambling for his teeth on the ground?”
“Oh, wait, it wasn’t just teeth. I beat you so badly your own mother wouldn’t recognise you.”
“Even then, you say I’m not qualified?”
Chu Feng retorted.
“You!!!”
Hearing this, Gongsun Yuntian seemed to have been struck at his vital point. He immediately gnashed his teeth in rage, veins bulging.
“You’re courting death!!!”
He attacked directly.
This time, he thrust both hands forward fiercely. Majestic spirit power surged like mountains and seas, pressing towards Chu Feng. This force was far beyond that of a First Rank Martial Venerable.
Seeing this, Chu Feng did not dare to be careless and likewise unleashed the power within his body.
Boom rumble.
The two surges of spirit power clashed, sending out ripples comparable to the might of a Martial Venerable.
If Chu Feng had not blocked them, even those ripples alone would have been enough to obliterate Xia Yan and Xiao Yu beside him.
After employing the power of the treasure, Gongsun Yuntian’s strength within this Thousand Transformations Illusionary Palace had reached an extremely terrifying level.
This clash between Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian ended in a draw.
“You two, stand behind me.”
Chu Feng glanced at Xiao Yu and Xia Yan.
The pair understood tacitly and obediently moved behind him.
They were well aware that, no matter their strength outside,
at this moment, in this place, the only one they could rely on was Chu Feng.
Buzz.
Once they had retreated, a powerful spirit barrier appeared out of thin air, shielding them from behind.
Seeing this barrier, both of them were somewhat moved.
To them, this spirit barrier represented enormous protection. With it in place, at least the ripples from the battle between Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian could not harm them.
Yet they also knew that Chu Feng was already weakened. At this time, spirit power was extremely precious to him.
Even in such circumstances, Chu Feng had deliberately set up this barrier to protect them. This was what touched them.
After all, they were merely strangers who had met by chance. Their so-called alliance had only received numerous favours from Chu Feng.
They had provided no help to him whatsoever.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Suddenly, a series of explosions rang out continuously.
Turbulent ripples, like raging beasts, instantly filled the space.
Even the indestructible rock walls here shook violently, as if they might collapse at any moment.
Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian had clashed once more.
Although they still employed spirit power, their fighting style resembled that of martial cultivators.
There were no elaborate spirit formations, no exchanges of techniques, only a pure contest of strength.
Both drew upon the power they had obtained from within this Thousand Transformations Illusionary Palace.
After this exchange, Chu Feng, who had already felt uneasy, grew even more doubtful in his heart.
The power Gongsun Yuntian wielded was even more formidable than Chu Feng had anticipated.
Moreover, having expended a vast amount of spirit power earlier to obtain the Purple Ghost King Pearl, Chu Feng’s current strength was not what it had been.
If the consumption continued, Chu Feng might lose.
Swish.
Unexpectedly, just as Chu Feng grew worried, Gongsun Yuntian’s figure suddenly shot backwards, withdrawing from the fight.
