# Chapter 1369: Return to the Eight Wastelands
"The twelve divine palaces have actually converged!" The Empire Demon Emperor powerhouse murmured softly, quite shocked. Moreover, only those who had stepped onto the seventh layer would know this.
His eyes swept over Lin Feng. This young man had entered from the Ice and Snow Divine Temple, yet had transferred into the Demon God Temple. Did that mean he was skilled in ice abilities?
"As far as I know, among the Ice Emperor's descendants, there doesn't seem to be anyone named Mu Feng. I haven't heard of the Ice and Snow Empire producing a young man comparable to a prince either. As for the Eight Wastelands, how could the Ice Emperor allow someone from the Eight Wastelands Realm to step into the divine temple?" This powerhouse spoke, somewhat puzzled by Lin Feng's identity.
"Senior, I truly come from the Eight Wastelands. The Snow Lord's daughter is my girlfriend, and I entered the Ice and Snow Divine Temple together with her," Lin Feng replied truthfully, as he needed to borrow the void battlefield passage leading to the Eight Wastelands.
"I see. Then go together with Xiao Yu. He's also heading to the Eight Wastelands Realm," the demonic Martial Emperor said, pointing to the demonic young man standing behind Lin Feng.
"Also going to the Eight Wastelands?" Lin Feng's eyes showed slight surprise as he looked at this young man. The Eight Wastelands had the Covenant of All Emperors, while the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms had the Empire Alliance. This person was actually heading to the Eight Wastelands Realm at this time.
"Heavenly Demon Hall, Xiao Yu. Let's go together!" The demonic young man smiled at Lin Feng and spoke, causing Lin Feng's eyes to freeze. Heavenly Demon Hall, Xiao Yu.
So he was from the mysterious Heavenly Demon Hall. The Blood Wasteland Heavenly Demon Hall was one of the many Martial Emperor factions in the Eight Wastelands, though it had always been quite low-key and mysterious. This young man, like him, came from the Eight Wastelands and was a genius of the Heavenly Demon Hall.
"It seems I've underestimated the Eight Wastelands too much," Lin Feng murmured inwardly. The Eight Wastelands and the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms were intricately connected. Xiao Yu came from the Eight Wastelands Heavenly Demon Hall yet had entered the Demon God Temple. There were also Sikong Xiao and Qi Qianxing, who had appeared in the Void Divine Temple. These were just the ones he had seen. He hadn't seen those below the seventh layer of other divine temples. Perhaps there would be many familiar faces too. Since Sikong Xiao and Qi Qianxing had arrived, it meant that people from the Sikong and Qi families could enter the divine temples, just not reaching the seventh layer.
"Alright, thank you!" Lin Feng nodded slightly to Xiao Yu. Since someone could help him enter the void passage, he was naturally willing.
Xiao Yu nodded slightly to the Martial Emperor powerhouse, then his figure flickered away, and Lin Feng followed.
"Brother Mu Feng, your demonic power is so strong. Why have I never seen you before? Which powerful person's descendant are you?" While flickering through the void, Xiao Yu asked Lin Feng with a smile. Such an outstanding figure was actually unknown. He wondered which recluse's descendant this was.
"I've always been cultivating in seclusion among the mountains and wilderness. I'm originally a nameless person, only recently entering the world of the Eight Wastelands," Lin Feng replied calmly. Xiao Yu smiled, knowing Lin Feng didn't want to say more, so he naturally wouldn't continue asking.
"Brother Mu Feng reached the eighth layer of the Demon God Temple. If it's convenient, could you satisfy Xiao Yu's curiosity?" On the seventh layer of the Demon God Temple, Lin Feng was the only one who had gone against the storm wind and stepped onto the eighth layer. Only Lin Feng knew what was on the eighth layer. Xiao Yu's curiosity was genuine.
"There's nothing inconvenient about it. It's quite similar to the seventh layer. The seventh layer has eighteen Demon General statues. After comprehending them, the demon generals rush into your body, bringing benefits. On the eighth layer, there are four demonic scrolls. Each scroll seems to have the shadow of a Demon Emperor. After comprehending them, the scroll enters your body," Lin Feng replied.
"Demon Emperor scrolls!" A sharp light flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes, and he laughed: "Did Brother Mu Feng obtain one of the four scrolls?"
"Yes, I obtained one scroll, but I don't know its use yet."
"Haha, Xiao Yu admits inferiority to Brother Mu Feng's talent!" Xiao Yu laughed heartily. At this moment, the two arrived at a demon cave. Sure enough, there were powerful guards here, but they ignored the two's entry, clearly recognizing Xiao Yu and allowing them to enter.
Going deep into the demon cave, Lin Feng saw an entrance leading to the void space. The two stepped in one after another. Like the entrance to the Ice and Snow Empire, this was a narrow passage. Both moved quickly, but it still took some time before they reached the convergence point of the twelve paths.
"There are far fewer people than last time I came," Lin Feng scanned the battlefield in the void. The flow of people was quite sparse. But it was understandable. With the Eight Wastelands Covenant of All Emperors and the Empire Alliance approaching, many who were training had gone out to participate.
"How long until the Covenant of All Emperors?" Lin Feng asked Xiao Yu.
"Tomorrow is the Covenant of All Emperors," Xiao Yu smiled at Lin Feng, thinking to himself that this Mu Feng probably wanted to participate too.
"Where is the location?" Lin Feng asked again.
Hearing this, Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng with surprise. Lin Feng didn't even know where the Covenant of All Emperors was held. Was he really as he said, only recently entering the world?
"This time it's the Eastern Wasteland's turn. The Qi family is the host. The Covenant of All Emperors will be held on Qi Tian Peak. Qi Tian Peak is said to touch the heavens. It will surely be a grand occasion," Xiao Yu replied with a smile.
"Eastern Wasteland, Qi family!" A trace of demonic energy rippled in Lin Feng's pitch-black eyes. It was actually the Qi family as the host. What a coincidence.
"Let's speed up," Lin Feng said. His body moved like the wind, his steps carefree.
"Oh?" Xiao Yu watched Lin Feng leave, then looked at the footprints on the ground. A strange light flashed in his eyes. Those footprints were extremely mysterious, as if they were patterns.
"Carefree Step Art, interesting," a strange color flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes. This Mu Feng had actually also cultivated the Carefree Sect's Carefree Step Art. He was becoming more and more mysterious.
His figure flickered, and Xiao Yu caught up with Lin Feng, rushing through the void battlefield. At this moment, the void battlefield seemed even more desolate, barren, and deathly still, with few people.
"Sikong Xiao, Qi Qianxing, Qi Tianxu are also here!" At that moment, Lin Feng saw a group of figures not far away, totaling over a dozen people. Each one had cultivation at the Venerable Martial Realm, with the strongest even at the Sixth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm. They were from the Qi family and the Sikong family, also returning from the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms to the Eight Wastelands.
"The Qi family and the Sikong family interact so closely. I wonder why," Lin Feng thought. The situation in the Eight Wastelands was becoming harder to see through. Of course, this was also because he didn't know much about these Martial Emperor families.
The Qi and Sikong family groups also saw Xiao Yu and Lin Feng. Sikong Xiao's eyes were strange and sharp, directly landing on Lin Feng. He laughed: "Sir, we meet again!"
Lin Feng's eyes were pitch black, with strands of demonic intent swirling around him. His gaze fixed on Sikong Xiao. Now Sikong Xiao's cultivation had reached the Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm, and his aura was stronger. He had stepped onto the seventh layer of the Void Divine Temple and should have gained quite a few benefits.
"Qi Tianxu is at the Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm and was one of the Ten Great Prodigies of the previous generation, yet he didn't step onto the seventh layer. It seems each divine temple is the same. It's not purely about strength determining who can reach the upper levels of the divine temple. It also depends on their talent, willpower, and comprehension ability," Lin Feng thought. Qi Tianxu was one of the Eight Wastelands prodigies from the previous round. Now at the Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm, his combat power should have reached the Venerable Lord level. Yet he hadn't stepped onto the seventh layer. Sikong Xiao at the Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm and Qi Qianxing at the Sixth Layer had both gone up.
This Qi Qianxing's strength should be terrifying. At the Sixth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm, he had stepped onto the seventh layer, and it was unknown whether he had reached the eighth layer. His combat power must be extremely frightening.
"Brother Xiao, is this brother a high disciple of the Heavenly Demon Hall?" Seeing that Lin Feng didn't answer him, Sikong Xiao asked Xiao Yu instead. This person's demonic power was very strong. He had suspected last time whether Lin Feng was from the Heavenly Demon Hall.
"I just met Brother Mu Feng not long ago. How do you and Brother Mu Feng know each other?" Xiao Yu asked indifferently.
"Haha, we fought once in Snow Moon last time. At that time, Brother Mu Feng's cultivation was still at the Ninth Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm, yet he made me suffer a great loss," Sikong Xiao laughed heartily.
"Brother Mu Feng's cultivation is close to yours. Let's meet at the Covenant of All Emperors tomorrow," Xiao Yu said with deep eyes. After speaking, he left together with Lin Feng.
"Mu Feng," Sikong Xiao looked at Lin Feng's back and laughed softly: "One Lin Feng died, and now another Mu Feng appears. This generation of the Eight Wastelands and Nine Abyss is indeed a grand occasion, with geniuses emerging in large numbers."
"Whether it's Lin Feng or Mu Feng, anyone who is an enemy of the Qi family and the Sikong family will die without a doubt," Qi Qianxing's eyes seemed to pierce through the void, staring at the departing backs of Xiao Yu and Lin Feng as he spoke.
"Haha, naturally!" Sikong Xiao's eyes were sharp. This era would still belong to the few great families. The Wen family had been driven out.
More than an hour later, Lin Feng and Xiao Yu arrived at the exit. Like the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms, there were many branching paths here, even more than in the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms. Each exit should represent a Martial Emperor faction.
"These two paths lead to the Eastern Wasteland Qi family and the Undying Heavenly Palace respectively. We can only go out from here to make it to the Covenant of All Emperors in time," Xiao Yu pointed to two branching paths and said to Lin Feng. The Eight Wastelands were too vast. If he went to the Heavenly Demon Hall in the Blood Wasteland, he definitely wouldn't make it to the Covenant of All Emperors in time.
"Only from the Qi family and the Undying Heavenly Palace?"
"Yes, we must choose one path. Mu Feng, which path do you plan to take?"
"I'll take the Undying Heavenly Palace," Lin Feng replied. Xiao Yu's eyes flickered, and then he advised: "Mu Feng, the Undying Heavenly Palace's old emperor's time is up. The internal situation in the Undying Heavenly Palace is very unstable, with alarms sounding everywhere. It would be safer to take the Qi family path."
"No, I've decided to take the Undying Heavenly Palace," Lin Feng shook his head. Taking the Qi family path was too dangerous. Although his disguise was very perfect, the Qi Emperor had seen Lin Feng in person. If the other party detected even a hint of something wrong, he would die without a doubt. Lin Feng wouldn't take that risk.
"Alright then, let's go our separate ways. See you at Qi Tian Peak!" Xiao Yu laughed, then stepped onto the Qi family's path, while Lin Feng took the Undying Heavenly Palace path.
