Speaking of this matter, it is somewhat difficult to bring up.
Because for this final assessment, this old man has selfish motives.
This old man wishes to ask you two young friends to help me with a favour.
The renowned Black Fiend Old Devil actually showed a trace of embarrassment on his face at this moment.
Yet hearing him say this, things were indeed moving in the direction Chu Feng had expected.
“Lord, whatever it is, please just command us.”
“As long as you say it, even if it means climbing a mountain of blades or descending into a sea of fire, this junior will do his utmost.”
Gongsun Yuntian suddenly stood up, bowed, and spoke with an attitude of absolute assurance.
This fellow was usually extremely arrogant, carrying an air of looking down on everyone. Even toward his own clan brothers he remained cold and distant.
Yet who could have imagined that when facing a figure like Black Fiend Old Devil, he would become extremely polite and even enthusiastic in his attitude.
But anyone could see that this fellow was simply flattering him.
Chu Feng was not surprised by this. From the very beginning, he had known that Gongsun Yuntian’s self-conceited arrogance and coldness were merely an act.
This was just a typical bully who only picked on the weak and feared the strong. He was no different from most of the geniuses Chu Feng had encountered before. The only distinction was that this Gongsun Yuntian possessed greater strength than those others.
Then Black Fiend Old Devil finally revealed his true purpose.
He wanted Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian to enter the Asura Burial Ground.
But what Chu Feng did not expect was that Black Fiend Old Devil was asking them to enter the Asura Burial Ground in order to help him steal something.
He did not explain what that item was used for.
Yet he promised that if they could bring that item back, not only would they be able to marry his granddaughter, but they would also receive generous rewards.
Moreover, regardless of success or failure, there would still be some reward.
Of course, there was only one such item. Whoever successfully brought it back would be the one to marry Black Fiend Old Devil’s granddaughter.
“You two young friends, the Asura Burial Ground is an extremely dangerous place.”
“If you are unwilling, you may still withdraw now.”
“This old man will never force anyone.”
After explaining his purpose, Black Fiend Old Devil spoke to Chu Feng and the other once again.
The words he said carried no intention of pressuring Chu Feng or Gongsun Yuntian.
Yet when he spoke, Chu Feng noticed a subtle change in Black Fiend Old Devil’s gaze.
Although that look passed in a flash, it still gave Chu Feng an uneasy feeling.
Chu Feng felt that Black Fiend Old Devil was merely speaking nicely. If someone truly refused, he might not be so courteous.
But neither Chu Feng nor Gongsun Yuntian had any intention of backing down.
Gongsun Yuntian had come here precisely for this marriage recruitment event.
And Chu Feng had persisted all this way precisely to enter the Asura Burial Ground.
Now the opportunity was right before them. No matter the risks, they would never let it slip by.
Thus both Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian expressed their willingness.
After they made their attitudes clear, although Black Fiend Old Devil did not show it too obviously, Chu Feng could still sense his delight.
Perhaps before this, he had also been worried that Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian might refuse.
“You two young friends, although you are competitors on this mission, this old man hopes you can work together in unity.”
“This old man promises… as long as both of you return safely, even the one who does not obtain what I desire will still receive a reward.”
“Of course… to ensure everything goes smoothly, this old man needs to place a formation on both of you.”
“Rest assured, this formation is for your protection.”
Black Fiend Old Devil acted immediately. He truly placed a formation on both Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian separately.
This formation had a time limit. Within a certain period, it would protect each of them from harm by the other.
In other words, with this formation in place, Gongsun Yuntian’s power could not harm Chu Feng.
And Chu Feng’s power could likewise not harm Gongsun Yuntian.
“Put this on.”
Next, Black Fiend Old Devil took out two boxes and handed one to each of them.
When Chu Feng opened the box, he was somewhat surprised.
Inside the box was a set of black armour, along with a black sabre.
Both the armour and the sabre were extremely exquisite.
And both were items meant for realm spirits to use.
As for Gongsun Yuntian’s box, it contained the exact same armour and sabre as Chu Feng’s.
Chu Feng guessed that these were the kind of things worn by the evil spirits inside the Asura Burial Ground.
After all, the two of them had tempered their bodies and changed their forms and auras precisely to disguise themselves as Asura evil spirits.
Yet these evil spirits were not quite what Chu Feng had imagined.
Because the evil spirits Chu Feng had seen before were mostly terrifying creatures that had turned into monsters.
Although those realm spirits still possessed intelligence and power, they usually lived in a freer and more unrestrained manner, having cast off nearly all bonds.
But now Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian were being asked to wear this armour.
Dressed like this, they looked more like members of an army. Their appearance was extremely formal.
This also gave Chu Feng a brand-new perspective on the evil spirits within the Asura Burial Ground.
Perhaps these evil spirits were different from what he had previously imagined.
“Remember, the moment you enter, first hide the return barrier gate. Also, stay in place and do not wander around. Someone will come to meet you.”
“For the rest of the mission, simply follow the instructions of the one who meets you.”
“But when you meet that person, you must first speak the code phrase. Only after he hears the code phrase and knows who you are can you trust him.”
“After success, return by the same path.”
After Black Fiend Old Devil told Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian the code phrase for meeting their contact, he had them step into that enormous formation that looked like a star.
Once the two sat cross-legged inside, Black Fiend Old Devil also entered the formation’s core.
Boom!
Vast boundary power surged from Black Fiend Old Devil’s body like a tidal wave.
Although Chu Feng could not determine exactly what level of Dragon Transformation it was, Black Fiend Old Devil’s boundary power was indeed overwhelmingly powerful.
Even though this boundary power was merely driving the formation, Chu Feng still felt immense pressure.
This was the power of Black Fiend Old Devil.
No matter how brilliantly Chu Feng had shone among the younger generation just now, in front of a figure like Black Fiend Old Devil, he was still an extremely weak existence.
Rumble rumble rumble!
Under Black Fiend Old Devil’s urging, the grand formation began to tremble violently. Piercing roars echoed from behind Chu Feng.
The sound was complex. There were tremors, as well as noises like giant waves surging forward.
The reason was that the entire power of the formation was now being mobilised and rotating around Chu Feng and Gongsun Yuntian.
And Chu Feng could see that even someone as powerful as Black Fiend Old Devil showed signs of strain on his face while activating this formation.
Bean-sized beads of sweat kept falling from his face.
“My goodness, such a powerful formation must have taken enormous effort and resources to set up. And it turns out it is just a teleportation formation? Just to enter the Asura Burial Ground?”
“It seems the item Black Fiend Old Devil wants you to retrieve is no ordinary thing.”
“Otherwise he would not have prepared for so long or spent so much time and effort.”
“Chu Feng, are you really going? Why do I have such an ominous feeling?”
Seeing such a grand display, even Dandan became nervous. Of course, her nervousness was not out of fear, but out of worry for Chu Feng.
“It is fine, Dandan. If something truly goes wrong, I have a way to escape.”
Chu Feng said.
“Really? In a place like the Asura Burial Ground, you can still escape?”
Dandan asked half in doubt.
“Probably… I can.”
Chu Feng gave an awkward smile. After all, he had not yet entered the Asura Burial Ground, so he could not be completely certain.
“But now that we are already inside this formation, it is probably too late to back out even if we wanted to.”
Chu Feng said to Dandan with a cheeky grin.
Indeed, it was too late.
Right now Black Fiend Old Devil’s face had begun to turn ferocious. He even let out angry roars. At the same time, the boundary power inside his body surged even more violently.
He was now exerting his full strength to activate this grand formation.
And under his full power, this mighty teleportation formation was finally completely activated.
Chu Feng only felt that the piercing sounds gradually faded away. Vast sheets of light flowed rapidly around him, blocking his vision. Everything nearby became impossible to see clearly.
When the light slowly dissipated and everything returned to normal,
He was no longer in that grand hall. He had entered another grand hall.
“Is this… the Asura Burial Ground?”
Just by looking at the hall around him now, Chu Feng could not help but feel doubt in his heart.
