Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 412 - 402: The Powerful Yue Feng

Seeing the sudden reversal of the situation, Xu Ling was immediately displeased and even glared fiercely at Chu Hao, naturally blaming him for jinxing the outcome.

In just a short while, Peng Zetian was thoroughly defeated and sent flying down from the high platform.

This also marked the first person to fail at "Defending the Arena".

Chu Hao, however, slightly furrowed his brows and transmitted his voice to Fat Cat, "The Cultivation Technique that Yue Feng used just now, why does it resemble the Guo Family’s Demonic Technique so much?"

Fat Cat did not reply, his gaze shifting uncertainly.

Yue Feng’s victory did not cause much surprise, but everyone was shocked by his terrifying appearance during the fight. What kind of secret technique was he cultivating to transform into such a non-human form?

With a series of crackling sounds, Yue Feng’s physique returned to normal, his fierce visage gone, once again becoming a refined yet domineering young man. He sat down as if defeating Peng Zetian was nothing worth mentioning.

However, the terrifying image he had presented was now deeply etched in everyone’s mind—how could they easily forget it?

Chu Hao glanced at Peng Zetian, who, despite his dissatisfaction, did not show any sign of dejection. This young man must have some Ultimate Move up his sleeve, but considering the high cost of using such a technique, he chose not to deploy it.

After all, aside from Fat Cat, no one knew what benefits could be gained by securing a spot on the high platform. Perhaps it was nothing more than a fleeting honor—to waste one’s trump card for that would be far too unworthy.

"Is there no one willing to fight me?" The Barbaric Girl, having sat for a while and seeing no one challenge her, became quite unhappy and started shouting towards the people below.

As an Innate Body Cultivator with astonishing defensive power, she was certainly one of the opponents that everyone least wanted to provoke. Thus, despite her openly calling out for challengers, the newcomers still avoided her.

Not just her, but Yue Feng too. The dreadfulness of his previous fight made others wary; unless absolutely necessary, no one wanted to make an enemy of him.

The reputation of a Martial Artist is forged through battle.

As time passed, more and more Experts ascended the platform, and the true kings began to emerge. Surprisingly, of the ten individuals who had been sitting on the platform, six were unseated. However, Yue Feng and the Barbaric Girl remained firmly in place.

Yue Feng’s face was the picture of composure, while the Barbaric Girl appeared as if ants were crawling in her pants, unable to sit still. When she observed others fighting, her eyes shone brightly, as if she longed to rush into the fray and enjoy a good fight.

Jiang Qixuan, Qin Yulian, and Wu Shitong also stepped forward to challenge, but each met with defeat, as their Cultivation was at most at the Two Springs level—it would be a breach of natural justice if they won.

But they were not disheartened; the ancient relic had only just begun to reveal its secrets, and if they were lucky enough to have a great fortune later on, their Cultivation could soar dramatically.

One thing was certain—no matter the Cultivation level of those who entered, there would ultimately be a major competition, and only the victor would receive the Heaven Talented Assembly’s most precious reward.

Their opponents would not only be Warriors but also War Generals and War Kings.

Therefore, even a Peak Warrior had no real advantage. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Fortunately, there was plenty of time—the relic would remain open for about three years, allowing for earth-shattering transformations in everyone’s strength.

Two days later, the ten spots on the platform had seen no recent changes. With their overwhelming strength, they had firmly retained their positions. To everyone’s surprise, these individuals were all quite young, with Yue Feng likely being the oldest. All the others were under thirty years of age.

The age limit for entering the relic was fifty years, and many among these individuals must have been stuck at the Peak Warrior level for a long time, unable to break through, surely refining their Star Force to an incredibly solid state. Yet not one of them could break through, which could only mean one thing—the "older generation" was simply no match for the martial arts talent of the younger generation, even with several more years of Cultivation.

This era belonged to the young!

Chu Hao thought to himself, talents from ancient clans like Su Wanyue had already received the Ancestral Pool’s blessing early on, and now she might have even advanced to the War King level. With Elemental Transformation combined with the Xuanyin Sword, how could an ordinary Peak War King possibly be her match?

Thankfully, there were three years.

Chu Hao clenched his fist in determination. He had just undergone the Ancestral Pool’s baptism, and the benefits would take time to fully manifest. He hoped that by the time he encountered Su Wanyue again, his strength would have reached the War King level, or at least that of a Peak War General.

"Yue Feng, it’s time for us to settle our score!" Zhou Xi ascended the high platform and issued a challenge to Yue Feng.

The two were old rivals; Zhou Xi naturally reigned supreme during the Fledgling Dragon List era, but Yue Feng was a late bloomer, showing incredible potential afterwards. He not only caught up but was even projected by many to surpass Zhou Xi.

Zhou Xi, with his pride and arrogance, naturally could not tolerate this and saw defeating Yue Feng as his mission.

To defeat a long-standing rival at the Nine States Heaven Talented Assembly would undoubtedly be the most exhilarating victory.

The Warriors from Cang State would likely be these two—the strongest—while Chao Hao and the Body Cultivation Girl now belonged to Fire State.

"Today, I will defeat you completely!" Yue Feng declared with high spirits.

"Then let it be a battle!" Zhou Xi charged forward, unleashing his ultimate move right from the start, terrifyingly formidable.

Yue Feng had opened Ten Springs, and Zhou Xi was not left behind. It seemed that their generation was all late bloomers; none had achieved Great Perfection in the Three Minor Realms, but at the Warrior stage, it was as if they suddenly gained insight, breaking through what seemed impossible one after another.

The two young mighty contenders clashed fiercely, but Yue Feng quickly used his secret technique of absorbing dark energy into his body, and his combat power shot up instantly. Even Zhou Xi, who used very strong ultimate moves to defend, was still overwhelmed and soon was knocked off the high platform.

The era when Cang State had two equals had come to an end; now was the dawn of a new dynasty under the sole reign of Yue Feng.

"What kind of cultivation technique is this? It’s so powerful!" Many young experts exclaimed. Zhou Xi was actually not any weaker in terms of strength or combat experience, but after Yue Feng used that technique, it was as if he was demonically transformed, his combat power skyrocketing, and both offense and defense increased tenfold, which was utterly despairing.

"Brother, are you confident?" Xu Ling asked with a great deal of concern, because she knew that Yue Feng was also a suitor of Gu Qingcheng. Before, she had regarded Chu Hao as her brother’s strongest rival, but now it seemed that Yue Feng posed a more significant threat.

Xu Wuheng’s face was grave as he pondered for a while before saying, "I have achieved Double Great Perfection in the Three Minor Realms and added to that, the cultivation from Ten Springs, I should have the power to fight."

Xu Ling was stunned at first, her brother only said he had the power to fight, but he did not say he could win.

You should know, her brother always had an air of invincibility, confident that no one on the same level could be his match. Now, he had said such words; how strong must Yue Feng be? Wasn’t Cang State the weakest in martial arts? How did such a monster come out of nowhere?

Xu Wuheng then smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I also have a fifty percent chance of winning."

Only fifty percent?

Xu Ling quickly said, "Brother, better not challenge him; there are a total of ten chairs up there!"

"No!" Xu Wuheng shook his head, "Originally, I could have chosen someone else as my adversary, but having spoken these words to you, I have already recognized him as my opponent. If I avoid the fight, it will plant the seed of defeat in my heart and affect my future progress."

Xu Ling was dumbfounded; she was originally just concerned about her brother and didn’t expect it to be counterproductive.

"The time is about right; I must fight!" Xu Wuheng fists were clasped as he spoke to Chu Hao, Gu Qingcheng, and others, "My friends, I’ll go first!" His gaze lingered on Gu Qingcheng a bit longer, as if he hoped she would say some words of blessing, but Gu Qingcheng appeared indifferent, as if she hadn’t heard his words at all.

He couldn’t help but feel disappointed, his expression slightly dimmed.

"Hey, how can you be so inconsiderate? My brother likes you so much, is it that hard to say a word of encouragement?" Xu Ling was displeased and, after her brother took the stage, she pointed at Gu Qingcheng and scolded her. Wasn’t this crushing her brother’s morale?

"You’re quite the comedian. Does someone owe you something?" Chu Hao frowned. He originally thought Xu Ling was just spoiled, but now it seemed she was completely self-centered, believing the whole world should revolve around her.

"Shameless vixen, all you know is how to seduce men!" Xu Ling cursed.

Slap!

Chu Hao instantly swung his hand, landing a slap across her face, and said indifferently, "Shut up, or I won’t mind knocking all your teeth out."

"You—" Xu Ling pointed at Chu Hao but didn’t dare make another sound. She knew she was no match for Chu Hao, but her beloved brother had left her side. She couldn’t help but feel a strong sense of grievance; this despicable man took advantage of her brother’s departure to bully her, which was utterly shameful and despicable.

However, she didn’t consider that she was the one who had provoked it all.

Gu Qingcheng’s eyes shifted coquettishly and said, "Are you trying to please me?"

"Tsk!" Chu Hao snorted, "I just couldn’t stand it, I would do the same for anyone else."

"Really?" Gu Qingcheng stepped closer, her fragrant scent instantly enveloping him.

Chu Hao involuntarily stepped back and said, "You demoness, have you no shame left?"

"Bah, such a hypocrite!" Gu Qingcheng retorted, "You had the guts to do evil before, now you don’t have the guts to admit it?"

"I don’t know what you’re talking about, I don’t want to deal with you." Chu Hao suddenly felt guilty.

"Brat, I will make you admit it!" Gu Qingcheng said to herself, but seeing Chu Hao’s demeanor was somewhat amusing, she couldn’t help but smile lightly at the corner of her mouth.

"Adulterer and whore!" Xu Ling watched and felt even more hatred, cursing silently in her heart.

At that moment, Xu Wuheng had already challenged Yue Feng, which shifted her attention to her brother’s performance.

Chu Hao was also interested; Yue Feng had yet to meet a true match before, but Xu Wuheng was at Double Great Perfection in the Three Minor Realms and had reached Ten Springs Warrior level, likely Yue Feng’s strongest opponent so far.

If even Xu Wuheng proved no match, then Yue Feng’s technique would indeed be frighteningly formidable. (To be continued.
