# Chapter 1967: Violent Battle
"Ji Shang, come out!"
The calm voice resounded through the void, causing the entire space to suddenly fall silent. All eyes converged on Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was actually going to continue his challenge. The next battle would be against the enfeoffed king, Ji Shang.
In this Imperial List Challenge, Lin Feng had fought the most battles. Starting from around the twentieth position on the Imperial List, he had risen step by step. Unbeknownst to everyone, he had already stood at the fourth position on the Imperial List. Now, he was pointing his sword at the enfeoffed king, Ji Shang.
"What a kid." In the void, the Slaying Heaven Ancestor's expression trembled as he looked down at Lin Feng. This little fellow actually wanted to fight Ji Shang. Was he trying to continue the unfinished battle from over a year ago?
On the Imperial Heavenly Pillar, Ji Shang's body erupted with terrifying light. His foot suddenly stepped out, and with a crackling sound, it seemed as if the void itself was about to shatter. A fiercely powerful aura crazily surged toward Lin Feng.
On the day he had been enfeoffed as king, what Lin Feng had done was, to him, a disgrace. The glory of his enfeoffment had been stolen by Lin Feng. Moreover, many people from the Moon Gate and Rock Gate had died at Lin Feng's hands. However, because Lin Feng had received the academy's recognition, Ji Shang could not openly deal with him—the academy would not allow it.
But now, Lin Feng was voluntarily challenging him. He had to wash away the shame of the past.
A rolling green light spread out, stretching through the void like an illusory shadow. Rumbling, oppressive sounds of collapse echoed through heaven and earth, shaking the void. Before Ji Shang even reached Lin Feng, Lin Feng could clearly sense a terrifying intent of annihilation rolling toward him.
"Boom!" Lin Feng's foot stepped forward. Instead of retreating, he advanced. Before him, the void crazily evolved, interweaving into an array path.
But Ji Shang reached out and grabbed. With a rumbling sound, the array path that had not yet fully formed collapsed and shattered. Rays of light continuously dissipated. At the same time, Lin Feng himself felt a powerful force of annihilation crushing his physical body. The Dao arrived before the man.
"Die!" A terrifying cold light burst from Lin Feng's pupils. The intent of death rolled toward Ji Shang. A void sword appeared. In Ji Shang's mind, an azure dragon once again emerged, coiling around to protect his soul. At the same time, the terrifying intent of annihilation caused Lin Feng's power to collapse.
Yet strands of death intent still crazily eroded Ji Shang's body, just as the intent of annihilation pressed down on Lin Feng. Though not intense, it was enough to affect the opponent.
"Kill!" Ji Shang strode forward like a shooting star. He punched out, unleashing a Heavenly Dragon Emperor Slaughter. A terrifying dragon light cut through the void, carrying the power of annihilation as it blasted toward Lin Feng.
"Earth!" Lin Feng moved his mind. A heavy law of earth descended upon his body. At the same time, the law of curse began to pierce through Ji Shang's mind. The Nine Nether Demon Melody played, and Ji Shang's body seemed to be covered with demonic aura.
"Boom!" Lin Feng stamped his foot on the void. Array patterns appeared beneath his feet. Stepping on the patterns, Lin Feng's figure shot forward explosively, also carrying a terrifying wind power.
The Floating World Seal blasted out, seeming to encompass the entire space. The terrifying attack directly shattered Ji Shang's divine ability technique, imprinting itself before Ji Shang in close-quarters combat.
"Roar!" Nine roars shook the heavens. Nine dragons emerged from Ji Shang's fist, crashing against the ancient seal. The power of annihilation erupted crazily. The entire space seemed to explode. The air currents cutting between Lin Feng and Ji Shang were sharper than blades and swords.
The void sword intent appeared again. Countless death swords slaughtered toward Ji Shang. At the same time, the intent of annihilation wildly ravaged Lin Feng's body, trying to make his body collapse, his blood vessels burst, and his soul explode. At such close range, both of their Daos were trying to destroy the other.
A cycle of life and death halo suddenly appeared, instantly expanding to envelop the entire void. It crazily surged into Ji Shang's body. At the same time, Lin Feng's body bent like a bow. His entire being exploded forward with the power of the demonic tribulation, aiming straight for Ji Shang's head. His physical body collided with the void, producing a solid whistling sound.
"Courting death!" Ji Shang roared. The intent of annihilation on his body was released to the extreme. Rumbling sounds pierced through space. Lin Feng's physical body seemed about to explode, and his blood vessels were already roaring and trembling.
Their attacks collided. The terrifying force directly surged into Lin Feng's arm. Ji Shang snorted coldly. This Lin Feng actually dared to clash attacks with him head-on—he was seeking his own destruction.
With a furious roar, Ji Shang spat out a terrifying dragon light from his mouth, rolling toward Lin Feng as if to swallow him whole.
"I want you dead!" Lin Feng's death eyes seemed to pierce through Ji Shang's own eyes. The intent of death, the void sword intent, the power of curse, the Nine Nether demonic light—all of them surged into Ji Shang's mind in an instant. At the same time, a divine light burst from Lin Feng's brow. It seemed like a dazzling palace appeared, instantly transforming into millions of sharp swords that slaughtered toward Ji Shang. Everything was as fast as lightning. At their almost negligible distance, all attacks surged into Ji Shang's mind in an instant.
"Buzz!" Ji Shang's pupils released a sky-covering light. The intent of annihilation caused the void to emit rumbling sounds of collapse. Lin Feng's body explosively retreated. At the same time, he directly blasted out a Floating World Seal, pressing it toward Ji Shang. But he himself flickered and retreated like the wind. Close-quarters combat with a powerhouse of Ji Shang's level was far too dangerous.
At this moment, Lin Feng felt as if his body had shattered into countless pieces. His arm was almost hanging limp. With Ji Shang's enfeoffed king power, combined with the intent of annihilation fused into his divine abilities, how powerful was his attack? Seeing Lin Feng withstand it, the surrounding crowd secretly marveled at the terror of Lin Feng's physical body.
Lin Feng waved his hand. A cycle of death rivers rolled toward Ji Shang. At the same time, his body once again shot forward like the wind. Various laws continuously assaulted Ji Shang, while countless void swords crazily slaughtered, not giving Ji Shang a moment to catch his breath.
Ji Shang formed ancient seals with both hands, continuously interweaving them. Green light dazzled. Dragons roared in the nine heavens. Suddenly, from between Ji Shang's hands, terrifying azure dragons crazily blasted toward Lin Feng, endless and inexhaustible.
"Dao Transformation!"
Lin Feng's expression condensed. Behind him, nine dark demonic dragons appeared, soaring through the sky. Their roars shook heaven and earth.
"Roar! Roar!" Waves of terrifying dragon might rolled out. Many illusory dragon lights appeared. Lin Feng's palms trembled. The demonic dragons, carrying the power of death, crashed toward the azure dragons. Collision sounds continued endlessly. The ancient dragons crazily collapsed and shattered.
"Boom!" Lin Feng's foot continued to step forward. Heaven and earth trembled. A surging momentum crazily pressed toward Ji Shang. The crowd watched with trembling hearts. They clearly had not expected Lin Feng to take the offensive, rather than fighting with various clever divine abilities as before. At this moment, Lin Feng had become incomparably wild, arrogant, and domineering, slaughtering everything in his path.
Nine dragons coiled around Lin Feng, advancing with him. With every step Lin Feng took, countless death swords seemed to slash at souls and destroy bodies, crazily impacting toward Ji Shang as if never-ending.
Seeing this, Ji Shang's divine eyes burst with light. As an enfeoffed king at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm, how could he retreat from Lin Feng? He also stepped forward, each step pressing down on heaven and earth. Beneath their feet, layers of floating light crazily flowed, as if about to transform into a hurricane that would tear apart the void.
In the space between them, air currents crazily converged and collided, then either surged into the sky as illusory power or collapsed into chaotic currents and disappeared without a trace. But that momentum made people's hearts tremble uncontrollably.
"Thunder!" Lin Feng roared. Thunder and lightning flashed through heaven and earth, transforming into countless terrifying bolts that blasted down toward Ji Shang. Ji Shang snorted coldly. Without even looking at the void, he raised his hand and struck, collapsing the thunder might. But the thunder might, formed by Lin Feng's law, came in endless layers.
"Fire!" Clusters of flames slaughtered toward Ji Shang, causing Ji Shang to frown slightly. Although Lin Feng's law power did not pose a threat to him, he could not completely ignore it. After all, his physical body was not as strong as Lin Feng's, able to withstand attacks from high-rank emperors.
"Desolation!"
"Curse!"
"Death!"
Attacks formed from various laws crazily surged toward Ji Shang, making his expression even colder. These law attacks were annoying. Around him, a powerful azure dragon halo suddenly emerged, enveloping him. But Lin Feng snorted coldly and directly blasted terrifying demonic tribulation force toward Ji Shang, leaving him no time to attend to other matters. When Lin Feng attacked him directly with laws, he could not simply ignore them.
"Ha!" The two bodies grew closer and closer. Ji Shang exhaled, killing intent flickering. This time, he absolutely had to blast Lin Feng apart. No matter how many laws the opponent had, they could not contend with his attacks. The azure dragon still guarded his soul. He only needed to hold firm and not let Lin Feng shake him, and he could crush and kill Lin Feng with his power.
Their pupils finally met in the void. Ji Shang roared. Lin Feng's soul shook unceasingly, as if it might crack at any moment. Meanwhile, death swords slaughtered out, all crazily surging into Ji Shang's mind.
"Collapse, collapse, collapse!" Both of their Dao intents were released to the extreme. At the same time, the attacks in their hands also blasted out. Neither soul nor divine ability power could be relaxed for a moment. But this time, the death swords were not so easily collapsed. Even more, the curse demonic sounds and the various law attack powers that surged into Ji Shang's mind were no longer easily destroyed. They were all attached with the power of immortality, eternal and indestructible.
In Ji Shang's mind, an ancient king's figure suddenly appeared, looking down on heaven and earth as it slaughtered toward Lin Feng. Almost at the same time, a demon god walked out from between Lin Feng's brows. Ten thousand demons worshipped. Countless demon king manifestations appeared in the void, worshipping the demon god. The demon god's left hand's destruction black lotus directly blasted forward, while it swung the death giant sword. And the Nine Nether intent on its back continuously impacted the ancient king summoned by Ji Shang.
"Boom!" Ji Shang's ancient king shattered and died, causing the crowd's hearts to jump.
That demon god was unafraid of the intent of annihilation. Carrying supreme demonic might, it surged into Ji Shang's mind. The death giant sword slashed at all souls, cutting toward the coiling azure dragon.
