King of Gods

Chapter 1088 – Intense Competition

“Sacred King Earth Ghost, let me give you a hand!”

Sacred King Earth Ghost suddenly stopped cutting the crystal and shook when he heard this.

“It’s Zhao Feng!” Sacred King Earth Ghost had a complicated expression and didn’t know what to do. He was extremely frustrated; there was just one tiny shred of crystal, but he – a Sacred King – couldn’t even destroy it before Zhao Feng found him.

“Zhao Feng, what do you want?” Sacred King Earth Ghost’s expression became grim as he asked directly.

Zhao Feng’s arrival didn’t attract the attention of any other experts. After all, the area was too big, and since the laws here were different and very strong, there were only about ten people present.

Some had already found their own fortune while others were attracted by the battle between the two Demigods in the sky.

“I want the fruit in front of you!” Zhao Feng replied honestly.

“Don’t even think about it!” Sacred King Earth Ghost immediately said. Even if he was wary of Zhao Feng, Sacred King Earth Ghost was willing to bet everything for this yellow fruit.

“Don’t panic. If we raise the attention of anyone else, this fruit might soon belong to the Demigods!” Zhao Feng said with a faint smile, and Sacred King Earth Ghost immediately stopped attacking the thin shred of crystal. Even if he could cut the crystal, this fruit would not be his unless he could instakill Zhao Feng as soon as he obtained it because Zhao Feng would just spread news about it, and he wouldn’t be able to protect it.

This was the same for Zhao Feng though. If Zhao Feng obtained the fruit but couldn’t instakill Sacred King Earth Ghost, Sacred King Earth Ghost would spread news, and Zhao Feng wouldn’t be able to protect this fruit either.

Sacred King Earth Ghost believed that Zhao Feng knew this logic as well.

“What do you want?” Sacred King Earth Ghost asked.

“We can share the fruit!” Although Zhao Feng really wanted the entire fruit, he knew that it was very unlikely. Even if Zhao Feng took out the God Slaying Arrow and killed Sacred King Earth Ghost, it would attract everyone else’s attention.

Furthermore, the God Slaying Arrow was Zhao Feng’s biggest card right now. If he used it, Zhao Feng wouldn’t dare to remain behind in the God corpse any longer.

“Split it?” Sacred King Earth Ghost had an ugly expression. He was a Sacred King, and he was the first time find this fruit, but now he had to split it with an early stage Sacred Lord? He couldn’t accept it, but this was the only method possible or else he would get nothing.

Although Sacred King Earth Ghost hated Zhao Feng, he really wanted this fruit. If half of the fruit allowed him to touch the domain of Gods, it would be simple to kill Zhao Feng afterward.

“Fine!” Sacred King Earth Ghost agreed to Zhao Feng’s suggestion.

Half of the fruit was better than nothing.

“I’ll cover you. You take the fruit.” Zhao Feng told him the plan. The two of them attacking the fruit together would definitely catch the attention of other experts, and it would only become more troublesome.

“Sure!” Sacred King Earth Ghost paused for a moment before laughing. Sacred King Earth Ghost would feel uneasy if he was the one on guard while Zhao Feng took the fruit.

“Then start! More and more people are coming in!” Zhao Feng’s eyes were grim as he looked at the entrance, where another two Sacred Lords had entered.

The Sacred Lords that had fainted outside were slowly recovering their consciousness, and there were also more groups arriving by the crystal that would enter.

Although there was just a bit over a dozen people present, it would soon become packed. If they didn’t take the fruit quickly, other experts would soon discover them, and everything would turn into a chaotic battle.

Zhao Feng moved away from Sacred King Earth Ghost and leaned on the enormous vine as he started to comprehend the Intent leaking from it.

Since he was the cover, Zhao Feng obviously created a lot of noise to mask the disturbance of Sacred King Earth Ghost cutting the crystal.

Weng~~~

Zhao Feng circulated the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique and released a surge of Intent into the dimension to feel the desolate and forceful power. In an instant, all the sleeping Intent in the air was moved around by Zhao Feng. A dark red whirlpool started to slowly spin around Zhao Feng as the power of invisible Intent merged into his soul.

“What strong Intent!” Zhao Feng completely concentrated and circulated the Soul Recovery Divine Technique at the same time. A non-human Sacred Lord relatively close to Zhao Feng froze before starting to laugh coldly.

“That brat really doesn’t want to live, does he? He’s absorbing all the Intent in a frenzy….”

The other Sacred Lords all circulated their Soul Intent to block this power since the Intent was too powerful and profound. One couldn’t help but enter comprehension, and they would forget everything happening in the outside world.

“I’m pretty sure that this brat won’t be able to leave here anymore!” Another Sacred Lord laughed when they saw Zhao Feng’s actions.

Zhao Feng’s current actions was the same as a King eating precious herbs meant for Sacred Lords. It wasn’t something that a King could withstand.

“He’s really not scared of death, is he? But it’s better this way!” Sacred King Earth Ghost laughed at Zhao Feng’s actions. If Zhao Feng’s consciousness accidentally fell into the desolate Intent and completely fell asleep, then the fruit would be his and his alone.

As the origin of everything, Zhao Feng obviously knew how terrifying this Intent was, but at the same time, he managed to quickly comprehend completely new laws and Intents. This power helped refine Zhao Feng’s soul while another portion of it increased the strength of his Sacred Power.

At a certain moment, Zhao Feng activated the God Tribulation Lightning symbols in his Lightning Soul Body in order to make his soul more agile and increase the level of his comprehension.

Of course, while cultivating, Zhao Feng would also pay attention to what was happening. The two Demigods were locked in a fierce clash because of the fruit. It was because of this that not many experts dared to search for treasures in the sky.

“Demigod Withered Breath, we get half of the fruit each or else neither of us will get anything!” Demigod Arcane Void threatened. Although he was slightly weaker than Demigod Withered Breath, he didn’t need to defeat him. All he needed to do was interrupt and disturb him.

“Demigod Arcane Void, you originally had a chance to find other fortune here, but now you don’t!” Demigod Withered Breath’s dim eyes suddenly lit up.

Demigod Arcane Void paused for a moment and felt that something was wrong.

Sky Suspension Palace used to be the leader of the cultivation world in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty, but the Grand Imperial Hall started to rise, and they formed a lord dynasty with the combination of many other forces, making Sky Suspension Palace fall. However, even now, Sky Suspension Palace was a four-star power and the number two force in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty. Their foundation was enough to compete against the Grand Imperial Hall if they wanted to.

Weng~~

At a certain moment, an old white glove covered in weird talismans appeared on Demigod Withered Breath’s skinny right hand. The Heaven Earth Yuan Qi nearby shook and started to gather the instant this glove appeared. Beams of white light filled the air and formed a giant claw that gave off an aura that could suppress Heaven and Earth.

“Substandard God weapon – Mark of Heaven!” Demigod Arcane Void’s eyes bulged out. If a Demigod had a substandard God item, their battle-power would increase by at least 40-50%.

Although Demigod Arcane Void was a Demigod as well, he didn’t have a substandard God item.

After putting on the Mark of Heaven, Demigod Withered Breath waved his right hand, and a burst of white light swept toward Demigod Arcane Void. In an instant, the sky itself seemed to be ripped apart. The power from the attack was enough to shock the world.

“Not good!” Demigod Arcane Void instantly took out a defensive Heaven-grade weapon and burned a wisp of his Divine Power while using a defensive secret technique.

“Ring of Heaven and Earth!” Limitless black light appeared around Demigod Arcane Void and formed a black barrier.

Some of the Sacred Lords below instantly became dazed as they watched a Demigod use a substandard God weapon. Other Sacred Lords that were comprehending the Intent were also interrupted by this extreme power.

“The power of a complete substandard God weapon!” Zhao Feng sighed in his heart. Only Demigods could use the full power of Substandard God weapons. When they had one, their battle-power was an entire level higher.

Zhao Feng finally managed to watch a clash between Demigods now, but comprehending the Intent here was far more useful. In just a short period of time, Zhao Feng’s Soul Intent had increased. However, it had become blurry at the same time, as if he was about to fall into the mountains, the sky, all of Heaven and Earth created by this Intent….

“The Intent here is too strong!”

Normal Sacred Lords would have lost their consciousness already if they did what Zhao Feng did. Zhao Feng’s left eye suddenly started to spin and gave off a brilliant glow of light, as if it was a work of art.

After circulating the God’s Spiritual Eye, Zhao Feng’s mind instantly became clear, and he could comprehend the Intent at a faster rate.

Weng~~

Zhao Feng’s left eye shot out a faint golden light that helped him gain further understanding of the laws and elements.

Whoosh!

Zhao Feng felt as if his consciousness had completely merged into this dimension, and he could sense the power of nature very clearly.

“This brat’s Soul Intent is very strong….” Sacred King Earth Ghost wasn’t very far away from Zhao Feng, and he was stunned. Although most people’s attention was attracted by the battle between the Demigods, Sacred King Earth Ghost could obviously sense Zhao Feng’s current state.

After using the power of the God’s Spiritual Eye, Zhao Feng’s mind was abnormally clear, and he started to inspect the situation of the outside world once more.

Demigod Arcane Void wasn’t Demigod Withered Breath’s match anymore, so he was completely on the defensive, but Demigod Withered Breath was unable to do anything to Demigod Arcane Void within a short period of time.

Demigod Withered Breath let Demigod Arcane Void leave, then used the Mark of Heaven to attack the fruit.

Demigod Withered Breath would just turn from offense into defense when Demigod Arcane Void attacked. He placed most of his attention on the fruit.

Crack!

The cracks on the red fruit’s crystal shell instantly widened.
