Chapter 1943: The Low-Key Feng Yan
“Zhang Ruochen, the Heir of Time and Space, you were the one who infiltrated Celestial Mechanism Mountain earlier. The Divine Son has ordered your capture alive. I advise you not to resist in vain.”
The Crane Fall Commander stepped forward two paces, his gaze locked firmly onto Zhang Ruochen.
To him, the orders given by Source Demon Divine Son took priority above all else.
Everyone else could be annihilated, but Zhang Ruochen must be taken alive.
Zhang Ruochen said calmly, “You want to capture me alive? Then you should have that Source Demon Divine Son come himself, because you are not capable of it.”
“Arrogant! Since you refuse to surrender, this commander will have to make you suffer.”
The Crane Fall Commander’s body trembled, releasing an immensely powerful aura that pressed down on Zhang Ruochen like a tidal wave.
With a flicker of movement, Zhang Ruochen appeared before Xiang Chunan, blocking all of the Crane Fall Commander’s released aura.
“Chunan, you deal with the others. Leave him to me,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Xiang Chunan nodded. “Big Brother, teach this bastard a lesson. Beat him so badly even his mother won’t recognize him.”
With that, he immediately flashed away, putting distance between himself and Zhang Ruochen.
Given his current strength, he was indeed no match for a Lin Dao Realm expert, so there was no need to seek trouble.
At this moment, Ji Fanxin, Feng Yan, and Pei Yutian had all flown out from the battlefield, ready to engage the Death Clan in combat.
Tu Di, Tu Ren, and the eight Dao Domain Realm experts from their group also flew out of the warship. Since the battle had begun, they naturally could not stand idly by.
However, their numbers were indeed far inferior to the enemy’s, only about a quarter of the opposing force.
Moreover, the enemy had a Lin Dao Realm expert and four Jie Tian Realm experts, while their side only had the three Tu brothers at the Jie Tian Realm.
At this moment, the three Tu brothers all wore grim expressions. Together, they could match a Lin Dao Realm expert, but after sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the Crane Fall Commander, they had no confidence in confronting him.
“Commander, hold off the Crane Fall Commander for a while. Once we eliminate the other Death Clan experts, we’ll come to assist you,” Tu Tian transmitted to Zhang Ruochen using his spiritual power.
Aside from the Crane Fall Commander, he truly did not take the other Death Clan experts seriously.
As long as the three brothers fought together, they were virtually invincible below the Lin Dao Realm.
Immediately, the three Tu brothers linked their auras and jointly executed the God King War Heaven Fist, launching a fierce attack on the Jie Tian Realm Death Knight who had been blasted away by Zhang Ruochen earlier.
Another Jie Tian Realm Death Knight moved to join the first, and together they swung their Death Scythes, perfectly combining their power to slash out a hundred-zhang-long black scythe light, like a spatial rift, ready to devour everything.
The black scythe light was extremely sharp, capable of cutting through anything.
“All living things shall die.”
The two Jie Tian Realm Death Knights uttered a low shout in unison, their eyes cold and merciless.
“Crack.”
The God King phantom formed by the three Tu brothers was torn apart by the black scythe light.
At the same time, the black scythe light was crushed by the God King War Heaven Fist, quickly dissipating and vanishing.
“What?”
The three Tu brothers all showed expressions of disbelief.
In their first clash, they had gained no advantage at all, merely fighting to a stalemate.
What was hardest for them to accept was that, with the three of them fighting together, the two Death Knights could hold them off.
Did that mean, in a one-on-one fight, they were no match for a Death Knight?
Before they could dwell on it, the two Jie Tian Realm Death Knights had already struck again, employing even more refined combined attack techniques.
All Death Knights were highly skilled in combined attacks. Even dozens of Death Knights could coordinate perfectly, unleashing power even more terrifying than the Rakshasa Clan’s battle formations.
The two Jie Tian Realm Death Knights’ assault was so fierce that the three Tu brothers were forced to retreat continuously, only able to defend passively without launching any attacks.
The three Tu brothers probably never dreamed that one day they would be suppressed by someone using combined attack techniques.
“Whoosh.”
The other six Dao Domain Realm Death Knights moved, emitting a chilling death aura, like reapers walking among mortals, ready to harvest the Dao Domain Realm experts of the Heavenly Court side.
Seeing the six Dao Domain Realm Death Knights charging over, the eight Dao Domain Realm experts of the Heavenly Court all felt a chill run down their spines. They had fought Death Clan Dao Domain Realm experts on the Merit Battlefield before, but those experts could not compare to these Death Knights.
Before any exchange, the eight Dao Domain Realm experts of the Heavenly Court had already begun to retreat.
“Grandpa Xiang will play with you all.”
Xiang Chunan let out a loud roar, charging toward the six Dao Domain Realm Death Knights like a primeval wild bull.
Seeing this, the six Death Knights did not dare to be careless and immediately changed their target.
They had all witnessed Xiang Chunan kill a Dao Domain Realm expert with two punches earlier. This dark, stubborn fellow was absurdly strong, and they must not underestimate him just because his cultivation had not yet reached the Dao Domain Realm.
“Demon Mountain Suppresses the World.”
Xiang Chunan bellowed, and hundreds of thousands of fist Dao rules appeared, along with a vast amount of demonic qi.
The demonic qi surged, combining with the fist Dao rules to form a hundred majestic demon mountains, pieced together, exuding overwhelming demonic might.
The six Death Knights each struck out with a palm, releasing a jet-black light that merged together.
“Death God’s Light.”
This was a unique technique exclusive to the Death God Temple, only cultivable by Death Knights, and its power was formidable.
“Boom.”
The hundred demon mountains shattered, turning back into rolling demonic qi.
“Whoosh.”
The metal demon crown burst through the demonic qi, becoming enormous, and pressed down toward the six Death Knights.
“Death God’s Salvation.”
The six Death Knights unleashed a vast amount of death evil qi from within, forming a Death God Dharma Image.
The Death God Dharma Image crossed its arms, tightly shielding the six Death Knights.
“Bang.”
The metal demon crown erupted with terrifying supreme power, though it made the Death God Dharma Image somewhat faint, it ultimately failed to destroy it.
“Third Brother, Second Brother will help you.”
Feng Yan appeared beside Xiang Chunan, forming a mysterious hand seal and striking out.
“Wind God Dao Art.”
A gentle breeze blew, and behind Feng Yan, an immensely tall divine shadow coalesced, faintly emitting a trace of divine might.
The divine shadow reached out and pushed forward, creating a gale that transformed into a divine tiger, pouncing on the Death God Dharma Image.
“Crack.”
The Death God Dharma Image was torn apart, shattering into pieces.
At that moment, a vast amount of death thought power surged from the six Death Knights, merging to form a tall Death God Shadow.
This was a condensation of death thought power, entirely different from the Death God Dharma Image formed by the Death God Temple’s secret arts.
The six Death Knights had all cultivated their death thought power to a very high level, nearly reaching the heavens.
The Death God Shadow raised one hand, and a black streak flew from the horizon, incredibly fast, like a comet, charging straight at Feng Yan and Xiang Chunan.
“Wind God’s Eye, break.”
Feng Yan shouted, and the divine shadow behind him split open at the forehead, revealing a vertical eye.
“Boom.”
A brilliant divine light flew from the vertical eye, colliding with the black streak from the horizon.
The streak possessed boundless power, but it was still blocked by the brilliant divine light, quickly wearing away.
“Wind God’s Furious Roar.”
Feng Yan’s expression turned solemn as he continuously poured his divine power into the divine shadow, even mobilizing the truth rules within him.
“Roar.”
The divine shadow leaned forward and let out a terrifying furious roar.
Endless gale winds howled, enveloping the Death God Shadow.
The bracelet on the Death God Shadow’s wrist flew up, and five solid beads emitted a dim light, each bearing strange mystical patterns that together formed a powerful barrier, blocking the gale winds.
But the gale winds showed no sign of weakening; instead, they grew stronger, coalescing into countless ferocious dragons and divine tigers, madly attacking the barrier formed by the Death God bracelet.
“Crack.”
The barrier could not withstand the gale wind’s assault and soon shattered.
The Death God Shadow was instantly torn apart by the gale winds. The six Death Knights used life-saving secret arts to break free, barely escaping being shredded by the gale winds.
But they were still severely injured, their armor cut by the gale winds, covered in wounds, with blood flowing continuously.
At this point, fear finally appeared in the eyes of the six Death Knights. They could not believe that, even with the six of them fighting together, they were no match for Feng Yan. Was Feng Yan truly only at the Rule Great Heaven cultivation level?
On a warship not involved in the battle, Feng Yan and Xuan Yuan Lie Kong stood side by side, both gazing at Feng Yan’s position.
“I never expected Feng Yan to have cultivated the ‘Nuwa Dao Art’ to such a level. Even Feng Wu Xing is far from comparable, isn’t he?” Xuan Yuan Lie Kong said, his eyes gleaming with unusual light.
Zhen Yuan smiled. “Although Feng Yan is not a Divine Son, his potential is in no way inferior to one. Especially since he inherited the Wind God’s Three Heads and Six Arms, the Wind God favors him greatly, personally instructing him in cultivation and even using divine blood to wash his bone and root constitution.”
“In the past, Feng Yan’s displayed strength wasn’t too great because he hadn’t truly mastered the ‘Nuwa Dao Art.’ How could the Wind Family’s Three Heads and Six Arms be mediocre?”
The Wind God was the ancestor of the Wind Family, a figure who could sit on equal footing with the Moon God. Legend had it that he was a descendant of the legendary ancient goddess Nuwa, “Nu Xi Shi,” and had received her true teachings.
As a family descended from gods, the Wind Family held an extremely transcendent status in both the “Pangu Great World,” one of the four ruling worlds, and the “Truth Divine Temple.”
The “Nuwa Dao Art” was a supreme scripture created by Nuwa, serving both as a cultivation technique and containing secret arts and divine abilities. It was one of the techniques on the “Taiyi Divine Skill Ranking.”
The “Nuwa Dao Art” was extremely difficult to cultivate. In each generation of the Wind Family, only a handful of people had the aptitude to practice it, and even fewer achieved success.
“From this perspective, once Feng Yan grows up, it’s not impossible for him to surpass his sister, Feng Xi. Having two extraordinary prodigies appear at once—the Wind Family is truly fortunate,” Xuan Yuan Lie Kong said.
Zhen Yuan just smiled and said nothing more.
Personally, he had high hopes for Feng Yan and believed that in the near future, this Wind Family member with Three Heads and Six Arms would surely become famous across the myriad realms.
“Second Brother, impressive! If I’d known, I’d have let you handle it directly. Why bother wasting my effort?” Xiang Chunan couldn’t help but give Feng Yan a thumbs-up.
Although he and Feng Yan were sworn brothers, he had rarely seen Feng Yan in action and didn’t know his true strength. It was only because Feng Yan was too low-key.
Now he understood—Feng Yan was strong, incredibly strong.
