Chapter 1715: A Trade?
"Nine Nether Demon Melody." Duanmu Heavenly Emperor's pupils slightly contracted as he looked at Lin Feng, a sharp glint flickering in his eyes. Lin Feng actually possessed the Nine Nether Demon Melody?
"Lin Feng, the Nine Nether Demon Emperor actually passed the Nine Nether Melody to you?" Duanmu Heavenly Emperor was shocked in his heart. The Nine Nether Demon Emperor was famous throughout the ancient capital precisely because of his formidable combat power, which was inextricably linked to the Nine Nether Demon Melody, one of the nine supreme melodies of heaven and earth.
"Would I dare deceive you, Senior?" Lin Feng said with a smile. At this moment, not far away, Cang Ling, the current head of the Cang Clan, looked towards Lin Feng, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
Within the Guang Han Palace, there was an ancient scripture called the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture, a terrifying demonic cultivation technique. Unfortunately, it was incomplete. And Lin Feng possessed one of the nine supreme melodies of heaven and earth, the Nine Nether Demon Melody. As Lin Feng had said, cultivating the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture alongside the Nine Nether Demon Melody would be the most suitable match. If a non-demon cultivator practiced the demon melody, it wouldn't have that kind of domineering effect.
The mysterious Ten Thousand Calamities Demon Scripture and the supreme nine melodies—even Cang Ling's heart began to pound with excitement. Although his Cang Clan's Cang Heaven Scripture was incredibly powerful in attack, it could never match the terrifying effect of combining this demonic technique and demonic melody.
"Nephew Lin Feng." At this moment, a smile appeared in Cang Ling's eyes. He actually walked towards Lin Feng, appearing very polite.
"Senior Cang Ling, do you have any advice?" Lin Feng looked at the smiling Cang Ling and responded with a faint smile.
"Nephew Lin Feng, there's no need to be so polite. You stayed in my Cang Clan for a while before; you can just call me Uncle." Cang Ling said with a smile, causing Lin Feng to secretly sneer in his heart. This Cang Ling was probably a millennia-old monster too, right? Uncle? Even Cang Xiao was probably several generations removed from Cang Ling.
"Senior, if you have something to say, please speak freely." Lin Feng still maintained his smile.
"As far as I know, the Nine Nether Demon Emperor was missing for many years and only reappeared when the Guang Han Palace resurfaced, likely because of the Rebirth Scripture. I wonder how Nephew Lin Feng encountered the Nine Nether Demon Emperor?" Cang Ling asked rather euphemistically. Lin Feng naturally understood what he was really asking: Did you, Lin Feng, truly possess the Nine Nether Demon Melody?
"Senior, you can see for yourself." Lin Feng smiled slightly. Then, his pupils suddenly turned incredibly cold, exuding a domineering demonic aura. The sound of flowing water rolled forth, penetrating Cang Ling's mind. At the same time, a melody of the Nine Nether was imprinted into Cang Ling's eyes.
"It truly is the Nine Nether Demon Melody." Cang Ling's pupils contracted slightly, his heart shaken. This man's talent was unparalleled, yet he was abandoned by heaven, and he still controlled the Nine Nether Melody.
"Nephew Lin Feng controls the Nine Nether Melody, but it's a pity you haven't become an Emperor. My Cang Clan has a few ancient scriptures that are quite good. I could give them to Nephew Lin Feng for cultivation, to see if they might help you break through to the Martial Emperor Realm." Cang Ling said slowly. Lin Feng had a faint smile on his lips, while Duanmu Heavenly Emperor and the Purple Gold Artifact Refining Master both wore meaningful expressions. This old fox wanted to trade but was beating around the bush, even making it sound so noble.
Lin Feng shook his head slightly and spoke slowly: "I have cultivated demonic techniques until now. Even if I cultivated other techniques, I wouldn't be able to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm. Only a powerful demonic technique offers a glimmer of hope. The Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture in the Guang Han Palace is quite good, but unfortunately, I cannot obtain it. With Senior Nine Nether Demon Emperor present, even if I were willing to trade the Nine Nether Demon Melody, it would be impossible."
Lin Feng sighed as he spoke, but Cang Ling's eyes flashed with sharpness. He thought to himself that this Lin Feng fellow was still beating around the bush with him. Both of them understood each other's intentions perfectly. Since that was the case, Cang Ling stopped being evasive and said directly: "If my Cang Clan can obtain the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture, would Nephew Lin Feng be willing to trade?"
As he spoke, Cang Ling slowly stepped forward, a smile on his face. However, at that moment, Lin Feng felt a suffocating pressure descend. A terrifying Cang Heaven great hand directly grabbed his body.
Duanmu Chun frowned slightly, and then a torrent of blazing flames burst forth, pressing against the great handprint, causing it to continuously shatter and burn away.
"Head of the Cang Ling family, as the master of the Cang Clan, what is the meaning of this?" Lin Feng's expression suddenly turned ugly. Facing a Great Emperor-level expert, he had no power to resist. That sudden pressure was not something he could withstand now. He couldn't even break free. The gap in realm was too vast, impossible to bridge.
Cang Ling glanced at Duanmu Heavenly Emperor, a hidden cold glint flashing in his eyes. Then he took a step forward. Lin Feng felt his heart pound and his blood surge. An irresistible force descended upon him, causing him to grunt, his face turning slightly pale.
"Nephew, don't blame me. I was just checking your physique to see if there's any chance you could break into the Martial Emperor Realm." Cang Ling still smiled. "You haven't answered my question yet."
"Senior, if you can obtain the demon scripture, Lin Feng would naturally be willing to trade." Lin Feng's voice carried a hint of coldness. Checking his physique? Ridiculous. Was this a threat? If not for the existence of the Demon Realm, Cang Ling would probably have captured him directly.
"Very well. I will try my best to see if I can obtain the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture." Cang Ling said slowly. Then, he flicked his sleeve and strode towards the Cang Clan's powerful experts over there. By now, many people on that side had already reached compromises, which made Lin Feng somewhat regretful. It seemed they wouldn't be fighting.
However, the situation was indeed awkward. Neither side dared to act rashly. The Guang Han Palace couldn't possibly become an enemy of all the ancient clans of Sky-Gazing Ancient Capital, and those ancient clans didn't dare to truly touch Xi Emperor. So, both sides backed down.
Cang Ling's figure left, walking towards the Cang Clan's powerful experts. Lin Feng coldly swept his gaze over Cang Ling's back.
"Lin Feng, you need to be careful of Cang Ling. Even if he really obtains the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture, he probably won't trade it with you easily. He might even make a move against you. Although you have the protection of the Demon Realm, these ancient saint clans have deep foundations. They dare to do anything as long as the benefits are great enough." Duanmu Heavenly Emperor spoke slowly. Hearing his words, Lin Feng nodded slightly. If the Cang Clan traded for the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture, they would definitely try to seize his Nine Nether Demon Melody. Of course, Lin Feng had already thought of this. He would be careful in the future. The reason he revealed that he possessed the Nine Nether Demon Melody was precisely to get the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture.
"Xi Emperor." Sure enough, at this moment, from a distance, the powerful expert of the Cang Clan spoke to Xi Emperor. Cang Ling was right beside him, having clearly informed him of what had just happened.
"Is there anything else?" Xi Emperor looked at the Cang Clan's powerful expert and asked.
"I am quite interested in the Ten Thousand Calamities Indestructible Heavenly Demon Scripture. How about trading it for the Cang Heaven Scripture?" The Cang Clan's powerful expert said directly, causing a sharp glint to flash in Lin Feng's eyes. This Cang Clan expert was extremely decisive. After receiving Cang Ling's news, he immediately wanted to make the trade.
Everyone was quite surprised. Why had this Cang Clan expert suddenly decided to trade the Cang Heaven Scripture, and for an incomplete demonic scripture?
"Right now?" Xi Emperor looked at the Cang Clan's powerful expert.
"Yes, right now. The two of us will trade directly." The Cang Clan's powerful expert said slowly.
"Alright." Xi Emperor nodded. Then, he took a step forward, and his divine sense fluctuated. Both of them were extremely decisive. They said they would trade, so they traded.
Light flickered between their brows as they began to trade the ancient scriptures. Within their divine senses, there was a vast amount of memory. Many people's eyes sharpened. Those two divine senses contained two terrifying ancient scriptures.
Not long after, the divine sense trade was completed. The Cang Clan's powerful expert smiled and said, "Alright. My Cang Clan should also take its leave."
As he spoke, he took a step, but he didn't leave directly. Instead, he stepped towards Lin Feng. This caused Lin Feng's pupils to contract. He hadn't expected the other party to move so quickly. He was probably coming to demand the Nine Nether Demon Melody now.
"Nephew Lin Feng, why not come and be a guest at my Cang Clan for a while?" The Cang Clan's powerful expert said with a smile, but his deep pupils carried a hint of coldness.
"I have some matters to attend to today. I'll visit another day." Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Why wait for another day? Since Nephew Lin Feng is interested in making a trade with my Cang Clan today, I will naturally satisfy you. Come with me now." As he spoke, a terrifying Cang Heaven handprint directly landed on Lin Feng, firmly grabbing him, making it impossible for him to move.
"Stop!" Jun Moxi shouted coldly. Langxie stepped forward, while Qing Feng directly crushed a jade slip.
"Stop!" The Cang Clan's powerful expert shouted coldly at Jun Moxi and Langxie. "Nephew Langxie and the Nether Son are welcome to visit my Cang Clan anytime."
"Senior Demon Emperor." At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly spoke, calling out to the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. The Nine Nether Demon Emperor's expression flickered as he looked towards Lin Feng.
"Senior, in the small world, I obtained some of your relics. Now that I see you are well, I am prepared to return them to you." Lin Feng said with a smile, but his body remained unable to move.
