# Chapter 1757: Waiting

In the Demon Swamp, many people were searching for Lin Feng. However, covering a vast region of ten thousand miles, finding a single person in the Demon Swamp was no easy task. Besides, Lin Feng might have already left.

Yun Qingyan and the other two gathered together. The Sun Saint Clan expert beside her had a cold expression as he said, "Since he is a student of War King Academy, let's return to the academy and wait for him."

"Do you really have to be his enemy?" Yun Qingyan asked.

"Yang Yan was a direct bloodline descendant of our Sun Saint Clan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have possessed the Eight Treasures Sun Wheel. Lin Feng killed Yang Yan, took the precious treasure, and has also killed many experts of our Sun Saint Clan. How can I let him go?" Yang Chuge said coldly.

"As you wish. But you, a top ten figure on the Hidden King List: Human List, going after a newcomer—I'm telling you now, I won't get involved." Yun Qingyan said with a smile.

"No need. I'll handle it myself." Yang Chuge said indifferently. Then, their group moved out of the Demon Swamp region.

Not only them. Upon learning that Lin Feng was a student of War King Academy, several people who were not from War King Academy also headed toward the academy, preparing to intercept Lin Feng.

As for Lin Feng himself, within the Small World, terrifying attacks continuously landed on the Flood Dragon's body. The Flood Dragon roared incessantly, but its cries sounded like those of a dying creature. The Law power on its body had been exhausted by Lin Feng. In the outside world, when one became an Emperor, the Laws of Heaven and Earth infused their body, making them feel as if they were connected to the entire world. They could mobilize the power of Heaven and Earth's Laws and continuously replenish their own Laws without end. But in this world, it was different. The Flood Dragon's Laws had been completely drained. Only its terrifying physical body remained, attacking wildly. However, within Lin Feng's world, even with its powerful physique, it still couldn't threaten Lin Feng.

The Curse Law continuously exploited its weaknesses, eroding the injured parts. The Death Law ceaselessly deprived it of its life. Without Laws to resist, its life was slowly being stripped away. All kinds of powerful attacks came endlessly, never stopping. It tried to flee, but Lin Feng chased after it, attacking relentlessly. Moreover, this space had restrictions, as if it were sealed off by Lin Feng.

"I'll tear you into pieces!" The Flood Dragon roared repeatedly. Its spirit and energy seemed almost completely exhausted, its voice weak and feeble. Its body was covered in wounds of all sizes, especially the wound on its back, which had been bitten by Lin Feng's Nine Dragons Heaven Devour. It grew larger and larger, hideous beyond compare.

"Stop resisting. I'm doing this for the sake of your kind. You will survive in another form." Lin Feng said. Then, dragon roars echoed. A layer of dragon scale armor seemed to form on his body. His blood surged, and behind Lin Feng, a demon dragon's head slowly extended upward, soaring into the sky. This was a true dragon, its body dark and ferocious, though its eyes still seemed to hold a hint of immaturity.

"A demon dragon." The Flood Dragon's expression froze. Hidden within Lin Feng's body was actually a true dark demon dragon.

"That's right. This demon dragon has been nurtured by my bloodline, infused with my power. If it can merge with you, it will surely soar to the heavens. Even if you resist, it's futile." Lin Feng stared at the Flood Dragon, his pupils cold. He said indifferently, "Even if your physical body is terrifying, I'm afraid you can't hold on much longer. In the end, you'll be destroyed by me."

The Flood Dragon's huge pupils revealed a trace of unwillingness. But it also understood that Lin Feng was telling the truth. This man was powerful, his attacks domineering. Destroying it was only a matter of time. Thinking this, a hint of sorrow flashed in its eyes. After ten thousand years, a demon snake had finally overcome its tribulation to become a dragon, only to become a stepping stone for someone else.

"Don't resist anymore. It's futile. Just accept it willingly." Lin Feng's voice rumbled, his pupils cold as he slowly stepped forward. "I didn't want to destroy you directly with treasures, worried you wouldn't be able to withstand it. Otherwise, you would already be dead. If you struggle any further, I won't be so kind."

The Eight Treasures Sun Wheel radiated light, its aura terrifying. Lin Feng truly didn't want to kill this Flood Dragon. If it died, its bloodline wouldn't be as valuable.

The Thunder God Hammer appeared again. The two artifacts released a terrifying pressure. Flames and lightning surged. Lin Feng approached the Flood Dragon. "Accept it. Your bloodline will endure. I allow you to retain a wisp of consciousness within your bloodline, so you can forever have a trace of undying will."

The Flood Dragon trembled. Then, it raised its head and let out a long roar that shook the void. After a long moment, it looked at Lin Feng and said, "Fine. I'll fulfill your wish."

"Your choice is wise." Lin Feng's figure flickered, landing on the Flood Dragon's back. The Heaven Devouring Martial Soul appeared, emitting rolling dragon roars as it devoured the Flood Dragon.

A few hours later, within the cave dwelling, terrifying demonic power rolled. Dragon roars echoed, surging endlessly. In the void, a mass of pitch-black demonic power gathered, extremely terrifying.

Outside the cave dwelling, grass and trees swayed, branches snapped, as if even the rocks trembled under the continuous dragon roars and terrifying demonic might.

With a loud explosion, a figure rushed out of the cave dwelling. Instantly, the demonic tribulation brewing in the void gathered even more powerfully.

Lin Feng's body was entwined with Heavenly Demon Tribulation Force, all of it demonic intent. He looked up at the sky, hands behind his back. A terrifying Heavenly Demon Tribulation struck down, the tribulation force piercing through Lin Feng's body, causing black light to flicker on his flesh.

"Boom! Boom!" One Heavenly Demon Tribulation after another struck Lin Feng's body. Lin Feng was fearless, letting the tribulation bombard him. His physical body grew stronger and stronger, and the Heavenly Demon Tribulation Force on him became even more powerful and terrifying.

Finally, the tribulation dispersed. Lin Feng still stood in the void. He had now undergone four Heavenly Demon Tribulations, and his physical body was even more formidable.

But at that moment, waves of demonic aura rolled in, causing Lin Feng's pupils to contract slightly. The Ancient Sail appeared. He rode it and left the place. Having caused such a commotion, he couldn't stay any longer.

Outside War King Academy, many people were gathered. Some were from War King Academy, others from other academies. Surprisingly, the two sides hadn't clashed, as if they were waiting for something.

"Yang Chuge, are you sure Lin Feng has obtained the Flood Dragon?" At this moment, Leng Xia asked Yang Chuge. He had already contacted some people from the Ji Sect, preparing to head to the Demon Swamp. But on the way, he had encountered Yang Chuge and his group, who were returning from the Demon Swamp. Upon asking, he learned that the Flood Dragon had fallen into Lin Feng's hands.

Lin Feng. That name was quite familiar. Three months ago, he had shown off his might against their Ji Sect.

Yang Chuge didn't reply. He just glanced at Leng Xia. Leng Xia was ranked sixth on the Hidden King List: Human List, while Yang Chuge was seventh. It was precisely because he had lost to Leng Xia that he had this ranking. Yang Chuge had always been unconvinced towards Leng Xia, believing that one day he would surpass him.

Seeing Yang Chuge's expression, Leng Xia sneered, "Yang Chuge, you're at least seventh on the Human List. Why not join our Ji Sect? Why follow a woman to establish an independent sect? How can that amount to anything?"

"Don't be too smug. I, Yang Chuge, will soon challenge you and Puyang." Yang Chuge said coldly. The fifth and sixth positions on the Hidden King List: Human List were both from the Ji Sect—Puyang and the Leng Xia before him.

"Welcome anytime." Leng Xia said with a slight smile.

"What a lively scene. What's everyone doing?" At this moment, a figure approached from afar. This person wore a white fur robe, his hands tucked into his sleeves. He looked at the crowd with a smile.

The War King Academy students looked up at this person, all showing a hint of wariness. This was Jing Shou. This guy was quite dangerous.

"Miss Qingyan is here too." Jing Shou's gaze fell on Yun Qingyan, and he nodded slightly at her.

"Can't I be here?" Yun Qingyan raised an eyebrow, looking at Jing Shou. "Jing Shou, you haven't joined any sect yet. Why not follow me and join my Yun Sect?"

"No, no. If I followed Miss Qingyan every day, I'm afraid I'd lose my head. Then Miss Qingyan wouldn't let me off." Jing Shou said with a smile. His gaze then fell on the group from other academies. He asked with a grin, "Who's challenging a student of my War King Academy?"

"I heard that when Jing Shou, the assassin on War King Academy's Hidden King List, makes his move with those hands, someone dies. Is that true?" A young man looked at Jing Shou with a smile and asked.

"Since everyone says so, it should be true." Jing Shou still smiled, replying.

"If I get the chance, I'd really like to see those hands of yours." This young man had a solid build, with a faint wild aura about him.

"I also heard that Shi Yi of the Divine Academy has dragon blood flowing in his veins. Shouldn't you be heading to the Demon Swamp to hunt dragons right now? Why are you here?" Jing Shou said with a smile. Then, he looked around at the crowd and laughed, "I see. It seems the Flood Dragon has been obtained by someone from my War King Academy. They're waiting here. And you people from other academies are unwilling to accept it, waiting for the one who got the Flood Dragon to return to War King Academy."

"So what?" Shi Yi and the others said coldly.

"Nothing. I'm just watching the fun." Jing Shou shrugged. Then, he stepped aside, truly looking like he was just spectating.

Lin Feng naturally didn't know that people were intercepting at the entrance of War King Academy. He rode the Ancient Sail, rolling forward. It was only when he neared War King Academy that he saw figures standing ahead, seemingly waiting for him.

The Ancient Sail stopped. Lin Feng, standing in the void, looked at the crowd before him. He naturally understood that these people were waiting for him.

"Interesting." Jing Shou saw that it was Lin Feng again and revealed a look of interest. This guy had obtained the Flood Dragon from so many people. Remarkable. As for the Flood Dragon, although he had no interest in it, he knew that even he, relying on his own ability to deal with the Flood Dragon, would probably be impossible!
