The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1449: Facing a Great Emperor

"Bastard!"

Seeing Ling Feng dare to strike at Yuwen Liang right in front of him, Donghuang Xuanyi’s expression darkened. He let out a furious roar and reached out with a clawing grab. A terrifying tearing force surged toward Ling Feng.

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched. He immediately activated Divine Thunder Avatar and turned into a bolt of lightning, barely managing to evade the attack.

"Hm?"

A trace of surprise flashed through Donghuang Xuanyi’s eyes. He had not expected a mere Spiritual Sea Realm cultivator to possess such a technique.

"Senior Brother Donghuang, you must uphold justice for us!"

Yuwen Liang clutched his swollen left cheek. Several teeth were gone, and his speech leaked air as he spoke.

"Don't worry, I will make him kneel before you and beg for forgiveness!"

Donghuang Xuanyi stood with his hands behind his back. His robes stirred without wind. Ling Feng’s display of strength had surprised him slightly, but to him, that was all it amounted to.

"Kid, I do not want others to say I bully the weak. If you know what is good for you, hand over half of your fifty thousand war points and kneel to apologize to Junior Brother Yuwen. Do that, and I can spare you. Otherwise..."

Before he could finish, Ling Feng let out a scoff. "Kneel and beg? Sorry, I can't do that!"

"Hehe!"

Donghuang Xuanyi smiled coldly. A sharp chill flashed in his eyes. "Then you are asking for it!"

In an instant, a terrifying wave of energy burst outward from him. The surrounding disciples hurriedly retreated hundreds of meters, afraid of being caught in the aftermath.

Ling Feng stood tall. Even under Donghuang Xuanyi’s overwhelming pressure, he showed no fear.

He had already faced peak Great Emperors before. Would he fear someone who had only just stepped into the Divine Destiny Realm?

Of course, this was not the Dead Soul Devil Abyss. There was no suppression of elemental force. With his current strength, facing a Great Emperor head-on would be extremely difficult.

Even so, Ling Feng had no intention of backing down.

"Good. You have some guts!"

Donghuang Xuanyi stood calmly and laughed. "If you can withstand three punches from me today, I will leave and never trouble you again. If you cannot, then hand over half your war points and kneel to apologize to Junior Brother Yuwen."

He paused, then added coldly, "Do not say I did not warn you. If you cannot endure it, surrender early. If you end up crippled, do not blame me for being ruthless!"

Confidence filled his face. He clearly had absolute faith in his own strength.

"Fine. Three punches it is!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath, his expression turning serious. This time, he was facing a true Great Emperor.

There was only a single step between an Extreme Third Stage Human Emperor and a Great Emperor, yet that step was like the distance between heaven and earth.

"Junior Brother Ling, be careful!"

Chu Tiange and the others sighed. A Great Emperor was no ordinary opponent. This was not the Dead Soul Devil Abyss. Could Ling Feng really withstand three punches?

They had no confidence at all. In truth, even Ling Feng himself was uncertain.

After all, this was a Great Emperor expert!

Among ten thousand Human Emperors, perhaps not even one could step into that realm. Even an early-tier Great Emperor was far beyond ordinary.

"Sigh, Ling Feng is too stubborn. A true man knows when to bend. Sometimes lowering your head is the wiser choice. Otherwise, you are only asking for trouble."

Bai Qi stood off to the side and shook his head. He could not swallow this humiliation either, but what could he do?

They were Human Emperors. The opponent was a Great Emperor. How could they possibly contend?

Perhaps only those at the level of the Ten Young Emperors could do it. Could Ling Feng?

"Kid, since you agreed, be ready to lie in bed for half a year. Sky-Splitting Tyrant Fist!"

With a low roar, Donghuang Xuanyi threw out a punch.

The punch moved like a dragon, carrying overwhelming dominance and imperial might as it surged forward.

Afterimages trailed through the air, impossible to distinguish real from illusion. Wherever the force passed, space itself trembled. A faint tearing sound rang out as tiny cracks appeared in the void.

The power of that single punch was terrifying.

"So strong!"

Ling Feng’s pupils shrank slightly. A Great Emperor was still a Great Emperor. His earlier victories in the Dead Soul Devil Abyss did not mean he could truly stand against one. It had only been possible because stronger cultivators were suppressed more heavily there.

Now, facing a Great Emperor fighting at full strength, he finally understood what that title truly meant.

The might of an Emperor was not something to take lightly!

Yet Ling Feng did not retreat. No matter how strong the attack, it meant nothing if it could not hit him.

"Reality Reversal!"

"Terrifying Gaze!"

"Nightmare Heart Technique!"

In an instant, Ling Feng unleashed all three trump cards.

Reality Reversal spread out, distorting the surrounding space and slowing Donghuang Xuanyi’s movement.

Donghuang Xuanyi clearly sensed the change in spatial laws and did not rush his attack recklessly.

At the same time, a sharp pain pricked his eyes. Ling Feng’s Terrifying Gaze struck, but before it could pierce his mental defenses, it was shattered by the immense force of his spiritual consciousness.

Boom!

Donghuang Xuanyi punched again. In a single moment, he broke through both Reality Reversal and Terrifying Gaze. His fist force surged forward and blasted straight through Ling Feng, sending him flying.

But in the next instant, he realized something was wrong.

The Ling Feng he struck was only an illusion. The real Ling Feng had already retreated far away, evading what would have been a killing blow.

"Oh? Dream Illusion Rule?"

Donghuang Xuanyi remained where he stood and did not pursue. His gaze locked onto Ling Feng as he spoke slowly, "Interesting. I did not expect you to have such mastery over the Soul Dao. I will count that first punch as a gift. Two more remain. The same trick will not work again."

Ling Feng exhaled slowly. His face had gone a little pale.

Donghuang Xuanyi’s reactions were terrifyingly fast. This was the first time he had encountered an opponent who could instantly perceive the distorted force field and shatter his Terrifying Gaze in the same breath.

If not for using all three techniques together, and relying on Dream Illusion Rule at the final moment, he would not have avoided that punch. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Great Emperors were truly formidable!

"Hehe, foolish kid. He thinks mastering a few Soul Dao techniques is enough to challenge Senior Brother Donghuang."

The veteran elite disciples sneered, their faces full of disdain. Anyone could see that Donghuang Xuanyi had only been testing him, while Ling Feng had already used nearly all his strength.

Yuwen Changkong watched from the crowd, secretly laughing. Ling Feng’s methods relied on confusing his opponent with Soul Dao attacks. Against Donghuang Xuanyi, such tricks were useless.

The second punch would not be avoided.

Li Fei and the others frowned deeply, worry written all over their faces.

Even Lin Mu, who had the most confidence in Ling Feng, could not help but feel uneasy.

Ling Feng was indeed a monster, but could he really withstand the next two punches?
