Chapter 705: Shock
Facts proved their speculation correct. That young figure, riding the ferocious beast Qiongqi, strode directly into the midst of the demon beasts.
That entire group of demon beasts, whether flying beasts in the sky or walking beasts on the ground, all lowered their proud heads, submitting to this human youth. Soft whimpering sounds could be heard. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, the crowd would never have dared to believe it was real—such a line of powerful demon beasts, all submitting to such a young figure. This scene was far too shocking.
Even though these demon beasts lowered their proud heads, their terrifying demonic aura still surged skyward, spreading outward in all directions. No lesser demon beasts dared to approach this area. Here, it seemed to be a gathering place for great demons.
Lin Feng, he had entered the Nine Dragons Mountain Range to hunt beasts within the mountains, and the targets of his hunt were all demon beasts above the fifth-rank Profound Demon level. Then he made this group of demon beasts gather here. It was too terrifying. Only a genius like him possessed such terrifying strength and courage. Any one of these powerful demon beasts from the depths of the Nine Dragons Mountain Range, if it crossed into their Snow Moon Kingdom's territory, would be enough to cause violent panic.
Moreover, beside Lin Feng, that terrifying ferocious beast Qiongqi had its mouth covered in fresh bloodstains, looking extremely ferocious and frightening.
It was likely that Lin Feng, bringing it into the Nine Dragons Mountain Range, had also allowed it to devour quite a few lesser demon beasts.
"Let's go." A low voice emerged from Lin Feng's mouth. Then the crowd watched as Lin Feng, stepping on the ferocious beast Qiongqi, led the way, while the other terrifying demon beasts lined up in formation, closely following Lin Feng as they stepped out of the Nine Dragons Mountain Range and into the territory of the Snow Moon Kingdom. They grew farther and farther away until their figures completely disappeared.
"Huff..." No one knew who let out a breath. One person stood up, but when he did, his body swayed. He felt his legs go weak, his entire body devoid of any strength.
The others also collapsed to the ground one by one, unable to muster any strength. It was too tense. At this moment, their bodies were drenched in sweat. They all understood that if just one of those demon beasts had wanted to kill them earlier, they would all be dead. But Profound Demons possessed independent thought and intelligence. Having been subdued by Lin Feng, the demon beasts probably had no mood to kill them either.
"Lin Feng, what does he want to do?"
Many people's hearts trembled secretly. Bringing so many powerful demon beasts into Snow Moon... it seemed that an earthquake was about to hit the Snow Moon Kingdom.
Indeed, an earthquake did hit the Snow Moon Kingdom. But before Lin Feng brought the demon beasts into the Snow Moon Imperial City, the earthquake was caused not by the demon beasts, but by Lin Feng leading the Cloud Sea Sect crowd to descend upon the Yu Family. Apart from the Yu Family's elderly and children, they were directly eradicated. In a single day, the Yu Family was destroyed. This behemoth vanished from Snow Moon.
The same fate befell the Yu Family and the powerful Snow Moon Kingdom force, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. Moreover, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect seemed to have suffered an even more miserable fate than the Yu Family—their entire family was annihilated, and the entire sect was uprooted.
The Yu Family's patriarch, Yu Liushui, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect's sect leader, Teng Wuyao—how majestic they were in life, both standing at the pinnacle of the Snow Moon Kingdom's pyramid. But within a single day, they were all killed by Lin Feng, killed by a genius less than twenty years old who had just won the Snow Domain Grand Competition and been titled the Snow Moon Kingdom's Human Sovereign.
After the Yu Family and Ten Thousand Beasts Sect were destroyed, countless small forces and crowds in the Imperial City rushed into the Yu Family and Ten Thousand Beasts Sect after the Cloud Sea Sect had withdrawn. But they were soon disappointed. These two terrifying forces left behind only a few luxurious palaces; everything else was gone. The Cloud Sea Sect had stripped them clean, taking away anything valuable. This made the crowd gnash their teeth in hatred. The Cloud Sea Sect's move was too ruthless, almost completely swallowing up all the resources of the Yu Family and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
This made no one doubt the rise of the Cloud Sea Sect any longer. It seemed only a matter of time.
"Have you heard the news? The Yu Family and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect were destroyed by Lin Feng leading the Cloud Sea Sect. Not a single one left!" In a certain tavern in the Snow Moon Imperial City, people were discussing. It wasn't just this speaker; at every table in the tavern, almost everyone was discussing the same topic. As for the protagonist of their topic, there was naturally only one person: Lin Feng.
During this period, one shock after another had made their hearts tremble again and again, all because of Lin Feng. He had brought too many surprises to Snow Moon. The crowd vaguely felt that the heavens were about to change.
Every era, when a prodigy is born, the heavens change. This time, perhaps it was no exception. Lin Feng was that prodigy, daring to suppress even Snow Moon's Crown Prince, Duan Wudao.
"Of course I've heard. This matter has already caused an uproar. But this was also expected. Back then, the Yu Family and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect oppressed Lin Feng so cruelly. If not for Lin Feng's good luck and having a good mother, he would probably have died at their hands long ago. Now that the genius has risen, who wouldn't take revenge?"
Someone responded, and the crowd nodded in agreement. They all stood on Lin Feng's side. Lin Feng, once a weakling, had now risen. This gave them hope in their hearts, a hope that perhaps one day they too could rise like Lin Feng, avenging their grievances, killing all those who had wronged them, living freely and unrestrained, without having to suppress their anger deep in their hearts.
"Heh heh, that's right. If I were Lin Feng, I would also kill all those people." The person who had just spoken chuckled.
"Boom..."
Just as that person's words fell, a booming sound came from the ground, as if making the entire tavern tremble slightly.
"Hmm?" The crowd's eyes froze. They looked outside the tavern. What was going on?
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The rumbling sounds came continuously, the rhythm very fast. The entire tavern suddenly shook violently. Cups and bowls buzzed. Tables and chairs, along with their bodies, became unstable.
"What's happening?" The crowd stood up directly, their eyes filled with panic. The tremors were too intense. The tavern seemed as if it might collapse at any moment.
"Crack..." A crisp sound made everyone's hearts tremble. Looking up, they saw cracks appearing on the tavern's roof. And the feeling of an earthquake grew stronger and stronger, as if the ground was about to cave in.
"Let's go, go out and see." One by one, the crowd flickered and moved outside. But as soon as they reached the outside, their bodies froze in place, as if struck by lightning, unable to move.
"Boom, boom, boom..." The ground cracked open. Their bodies seemed to be bouncing, jolted up by the tremors. What did they see? In front of them, a giant stone ape, over three meters tall, was taking huge strides, stomping on the ground. Each step covered several dozen meters, crushing the ground beneath its feet to powder. The terrifying aura seemed capable of trampling to death anyone who stood in its way.
Even more terrifying was that behind the stone ape, a Sky-Eye Demon Serpent dragged its over ten-meter-long body across the ground, its tongue flicking out, a shocking sight.
Demon beasts, all demon beasts. As if sensing that the light above their heads had disappeared, they looked up. In the sky, there were also terrifying demon beasts flying, making their hearts tremble wildly.
"Lin Feng!"
Finally, the crowd's gaze fixed on the foremost demon beast. On the back of a crimson ferocious beast stood a white-robed youth, his clothes fluttering, so free and unrestrained.
"It's Lin Feng." Many recognized him. That crimson, ferocious beast was Qiongqi. The youth standing on Qiongqi's back was naturally Lin Feng.
"Boom..."
When the stone ape and the crowd of demon beasts crossed the tavern, the people standing outside felt their hearts leap to their throats. They swallowed their saliva. The unparalleled shock was beyond words.
It wasn't just them; everyone was the same. Wherever the demon beasts passed, the people of the Snow Moon Imperial City were stunned speechless. Many years later, this scene still lingered in their minds. Such terrifying demon beasts—when had they ever seen them before? But on that day, they marched in groups, passing before their eyes, demonic aura soaring to the heavens. And the one leading these demon beasts was just a youth, a handsome, clean-featured youth.
These powerful demon beasts moved quickly. It didn't take long for them to reach the Cloud Sea Sect. When they stepped into the Cloud Sea Sect, the people of the sect couldn't help but feel their hearts tremble violently. In that instant, their Cloud Sea Sect's strength skyrocketed. Apart from the Imperial Palace, they were now enough to sweep away any force in the Snow Moon Kingdom!
