The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1456: Deliberate Targeting

"Tch, compared to that little witch Yi Yi, I'm already considered hardworking!"

Lin Mu curled his lips, then quickly changed the topic. "Why are we even talking about this? Hurry up and help your brother here get some payback!"

"Alright."

Ling Feng let out a soft sigh. After a moment of thought, he took out a bottle of Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence and handed it to Lin Mu. "Take this. It can temper your body and improve your cultivation."

"What is this?"

Lin Mu took the jade bottle and pulled out the stopper. Instantly, a wave of pure spiritual power rushed out. The heat was so intense that his face flushed red.

"Damn, Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence! Where did you get something like this?"

Lin Mu swallowed hard. With his background, his insight was far beyond ordinary.

"I got it from the Dead Soul Devil Abyss. I only took it out recently. Use it. It should help you break through a few levels."

Ling Feng smiled faintly. He was never stingy with his companions.

"Good brother, that's real loyalty!"

Lin Mu laughed loudly and slung an arm over Ling Feng's shoulder. "Come on, let's go deal with those so-called veteran elites. Just thinking about them makes me mad!"

Ling Feng shook his head with a smile. "Let's go."

About half a quarter of an hour later, the two arrived at a rather remote arena within the Hall of War.

This place was rarely used under normal circumstances, but now it served as the selection ground for the Hunting Battlefield.

The spectator stands were packed. Even though most people were not qualified to participate, battles between elites of this level were rare. There were even Great Emperor experts present, so no one wanted to miss it.

Very soon, Ling Feng spotted Chu Tiange and the others in the crowd. However, their condition was far from good.

Among them, Feng Ling had it the worst.

Her elemental force was nearly depleted, and her body bore multiple injuries. Her face was pale, with beads of sweat on her forehead.

A trace of pain flickered in her bright eyes, but she gritted her teeth and endured it.

Feng Ling was also considered a half-disciple of Saint Gui. Although her ranking on the Creation Star Ranking was not particularly high, her true strength was not to be underestimated.

In this selection battle, she had faced deliberate suppression. Even so, she managed to win one match through sheer ability. After that, she suffered two consecutive defeats.

All because she had faced two Great Emperor opponents in a row!

There were not many Great Emperors participating in the selection, yet she happened to meet two back to back. Anyone could see the manipulation behind it.

Chu Tiange's situation was similar. He had fought two matches with one win and one loss. If they continued to be targeted like this, even he would not make it.

"Junior Brother Ling!"

When they saw Ling Feng, everyone visibly perked up, as if they had found their backbone again.

Ling Feng nodded slightly and glanced toward the preparation area. Donghuang Xuanyi and Yuwen Liang were both there. Donghuang Xuanyi sat with his arms crossed, expression calm. Yuwen Liang, on the other hand, shot Ling Feng a provocative look.

Not far away, Feng Shaoan was also present. When he saw Ling Feng, a complicated expression flashed in his eyes.

Ling Feng swept a cold glance at Yuwen Liang before turning back to Chu Tiange and the others. Each of them carried injuries. Though not obvious at first glance, they were internal and dangerous.

They might seem fine after leaving the stage, but the hidden damage could become fatal in a life-and-death battle if left untreated.

Those veteran elites were truly ruthless!

If not for Ling Feng's medical skill, he might not have noticed their vicious methods.

"Senior Brother Chu, if you ran into a Great Emperor and knew you couldn't win, why didn't you just concede and wait for the next match? I said martial artists shouldn't retreat, but that doesn't mean you should act recklessly!"

Ling Feng spoke in a low voice.

Chu Tiange immediately protested, "Junior Brother Ling, it's not that we were being reckless. Conceding doesn't work here. The only way to forfeit is to jump off the stage. But the moment we step up, they suppress us completely. We don't even get the chance to jump down!"

As he spoke, Chu Tiange clutched his abdomen and groaned softly. In his match against a Great Emperor, his internal organs had nearly been shattered.

If the opponent had not been restricted from killing openly, he would already be dead.

Li Fei currently had one loss and no wins. Her left cheek was slightly swollen, clearly from a slap.

Feng Ling had it even worse. Her stubborn nature pushed her to continue fighting after her first loss. As a result, she was beaten repeatedly and could barely stand.

In comparison, Lin Mu had been lucky. Although he lost all three matches, no one dared to go too far against him because of his background.

The more Ling Feng looked, the angrier he became. Those bastards had targeted his companions because of him.

He could not swallow this!

"Ling Feng... y-you finally made it."

Feng Ling spoke weakly, her voice unsteady.

"Sigh..."

Ling Feng took a deep breath. "I'm sorry. You got dragged into this because of me."

"Junior Brother Ling, how can you say that? If not for you, I would have died in the Dead Soul Devil Abyss!"

Chu Tiange looked at him firmly as he spoke.

Li Fei added, "It's fine. So what if we don't make it into the Hunting Battlefield? It doesn't matter."

"Hmph, Ling Feng! If y-you feel bad, then go win it back for us. S-Stop acting like this. Don't hesitate like a coward!"

Feng Ling glared at him despite her condition. "At least make this beating worth it!"

"Don't worry. I will!"

Ling Feng clenched his fists. He then took out several more bottles of Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence. This spirit liquid could not only temper the body but also heal internal injuries. Just a few drops could restore vitality.

"Take these and recover."

After handing out six or seven bottles, Ling Feng supported Feng Ling and fed her two drops.

Within moments, the weakness on her face disappeared. Her wounds began to close. Though not fully healed, she was already much better.

A surge of energy flowed through her body. She straightened up in shock. "I feel completely fine. What is this?"

"Of course you do."

Lin Mu grinned. "That's Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence. One drop is worth an eighth-tier spirit pill. Just think about how valuable a whole bottle is."

"Hiss!"

Everyone drew a sharp breath. Such a precious spirit liquid, and Ling Feng handed out a bottle to each of them without hesitation.

What they did not know was that Ling Feng possessed an entire pool of it. However, it seemed that, in a sense, all of this Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence could be considered his bathwater...

"Isn't this too valuable?"

Chu Tiange was stunned. Xu Xinghe stared at Ling Feng in disbelief. Even Princess Qian Ling, who was not particularly close to him and had only been on the same team, received a full bottle.

This guy was truly generous!

"Use it to recover first. Leave the rest to me!"

Ling Feng's gaze turned cold as he looked toward the preparation area, locking onto Donghuang Xuanyi and Yuwen Liang.

Anyone who dared touch his companions would have to pay the price!
