King of Gods

Chapter 1343 – Thunderflame Ancient Dragon Race

Ancient God Luo Ling had been planning to find Zhao Feng and take him out with her. After all, the two had worked together for a bit, and later on, Zhao Feng gave Ancient God Luo Ling a good-intentioned warning. Taking Zhao Feng with her was also as easy for her as lifting a finger.

But just when she arrived at where Zhao Feng had been hiding, she sensed intense ripples of energy and heard a heaven-shaking explosion.

At the start, Ancient God Luo Ling believed that Zhao Feng’s hiding spot had been discovered by the Heavenly Demon Hall and the two were in the middle of a major battle. She planned to go to Zhao Feng’s assistance.

However, by the time she arrived in the vicinity of the Celestial Dragon Spatial Lock Array, she saw Zhao Feng and the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon working together to kill the red-haired man. Meanwhile, on the other end, the peak Rank Eight automaton chose to self-detonate. The man and the automaton had painful, grief-stricken, helpless, and shameless expressions.

This sight gave Ancient God Luo Ling’s mind an enormous jolt.

Although Zhao Feng had a helper, his helper was just a peak Rank Seven, and yet they still managed to push the enemies to this state.

This was not something someone who had just broken into Rank Eight could do. If not for the fact that Ancient God Luo Ling had worked with Zhao Feng before, she would have never believed that the person in the ball of multicolored fog was Zhao Feng.

“Killing a Rank Eight Ancient God in a direct confrontation and forcing a peak Rank Eight automaton to self-detonate!?” Ancient God Luo Ling’s face was frozen in shock.

A peak Rank Eight automaton was actually completely unwilling to fight and chose to self-detonate instead. It was difficult to imagine just what had taken place inside the Celestial Dragon Spatial Lock Array.

At this moment, Zhao Feng noticed Ancient God Luo Ling.

“How come you’re here?” Zhao Feng looked at Ancient God Luo Ling and directly asked.

Didn’t Ancient God Luo Ling go to the core secret hall? Even if she had failed, shouldn’t she be seeking opportunities to escape? Why come and find him?

At this moment, the little thieving cat used some mysterious method to undo the remnants of the Celestial Dragon Spatial Lock Array.

“Mm?” Ancient God Luo Ling grimaced.

The array had somewhat hindered her perception. Now that the array was gone, she immediately sensed an intense deathly aura. It was clear that the red-hair man and the automaton were far from the only people to have died in this array.

Ancient God Luo Ling then fiercely stared at the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.

“Destruction Dragon Race!” Her expression became even more shocked.

The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s aura made her bloodline slightly tremble.

Although the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s bloodline was extremely thin, it was still the bloodline of a race ranked in the top ten of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races, the Destruction Dragon Race! The strongest Destruction Dragon Race bloodline was even comparable to one of the Eight Great God Eyes.

“I was looking for where you were hiding. I thought that you didn’t have any way of leaving, so I was planning to take you out with me.” Ancient God Luo Ling hesitated for a few moments before speaking.

By now, she was treating Zhao Feng as an equal existence. To have such astonishing achievements in battle after barely breaking into Rank Eight made him not one bit inferior to her.

Zhao Feng was moved. He truly had been waiting for a moment to leave.

However, if he left with Ancient God Luo Ling, he would definitely end up gaining the attention of the Spacetime Sacred Land. Back when Zhao Feng snatched the Spacetime Robe from the Spacetime Sacred Land’s team in the Wild Ancient Secret Dimension, he had essentially formed a grudge with it.

Zhao Feng was getting ready to refuse when he suddenly had another idea.

“Let’s make a deal,” Zhao Feng straightforwardly said.

“I don’t need anything to take you out of here.” Luo Ling’s eyes flashed with disdain.

Ancient God Luo Ling mistakenly believed that Zhao Feng had interpreted her intentions as wanting to take him out in exchange for some treasure he owned. Of course, Ancient God Luo Ling truly did desire that Spacetime Robe.

“You’ve misunderstood me. I plan to trade something else!” Zhao Feng faintly smiled.

Ancient God Luo Ling froze for a second, her cheeks slightly blushing, but she quickly regained her composure.

“What sort of deal?” Ancient God Luo Ling whispered.

“I can let you enter the Spacetime Robe’s dimension and break through into Rank Nine, and you can help me with something….” Zhao Feng faintly smiled.

“Enter the Spacetime Robe’s dimension… break into Rank Nine?” Ancient God Luo Ling was stunned.

One had to realize that each one of the three ranks of Ancient God was extremely hard to break into. Even with the assistance of a higher-level expert, breaking through was not something one could do at will. And the one saying this to her was someone of a lower level of cultivation.

In addition, entering the Spacetime Robe’s internal dimension was equivalent to touching the core of the Spacetime Robe. Although the Spacetime Robe already had a master, if Zhao Feng was heavily injured or Ancient God Luo Ling had some sort of special method, she was completely capable of stealing it away.

“Heavenly God Liquid… have you heard of it?” Zhao Feng asked.

Only someone who took Heavenly God Liquid for the first time could enjoy an extremely high chance of breaking into the next realm.

Zhao Feng had never heard of Heavenly God Liquid before he acquired it. It was probably some treasure for breaking through developed by the Heaven’s Legacy Race. Thus, Ancient God Luo Ling had probably never taken Heavenly God Liquid before.

Ancient God Luo Ling shook her head, indicating that she had never heard about it.

“This treasure endows a certain chance for an expert of one of the nine ranks of True God to break into the next rank. The lower one’s cultivation, the higher one’s chance. I took some of it, allowing me to break into Rank Eight. You’re already peak Rank Eight, so you shouldn’t have any problems….” Zhao Feng began to specifically describe the effects for Ancient God Luo Ling.

Although a peak Rank Eight probably wouldn’t have any problems, Zhao Feng did not dare to give a one hundred percent guarantee. No one could ever speak with complete confidence about probabilities. Thus, he first clearly explained the situation.

“I agree!” Ancient God Luo Ling swiftly took the deal. The deal Zhao Feng offered had only pros and no cons for her.

“Okay.” Zhao Feng immediately took out a contract.

The primary purpose of signing a contract was to bind Ancient God Luo Ling so that she would not do anything to the Spacetime Robe while inside the Spacetime Robe Dimension and would focus completely on breaking through.

Zhao Feng gave one of the last two portions of Heavenly God Liquid to Ancient God Luo Ling.

 Swish!

With a flap of the Spacetime Robe, Ancient God Luo Ling and the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon entered its internal dimension.

 Clingclang!

The little thieving cat tossed out a few bronze coins and then pointed in a direction. Zhao Feng flew in the direction that the little thieving cat indicated.

A figure suddenly appeared in a cultivation chamber.

“Elder, the intruder is heading east!” he immediately informed through a message token.

Originally, this person was heading toward the target location according to Ancient God Nether Spring’s orders so that Zhao Feng could be surrounded and killed. However, an unexpected development occurred, and all of them received another order telling them to not get close. Thus, many members of the Heavenly Demon Hall were concealed in the vicinity, including Ancient God Nether Spring’s Samsara Immortal Bodies.

…

Ancient God Nether Spring was currently traveling at full speed through the Heavenly Demon Hall.

He had the Eye of Samsara, so he was not especially skilled in battle, and his speed was not anything extraordinary. Compared to a Spacetime God Eye descendant like Ancient God Luo Ling, he wasn’t even close.

At this moment, he took out a message token.

“Can you really escape?” Ancient God Nether Spring coldly snorted.

This time, he was personally going out. The two intruders were doomed, and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat wouldn’t be able to escape.

“Wait, the east!?” Ancient God Nether Spring grimaced as he began to think.

“Damn! They’re running to what happens to be the safest area!” Ancient God Nether Spring immediately began to curse.

His Rank Nine Samsara Immortal Body was coming from the west while he himself was coming from the north. Coincidentally, Zhao Feng was fleeing to the east. Could Zhao Feng have known all this?

“It must be the Heaven’s Legacy Cat.” Ancient God Nether Spring instantly understood.

The Heaven’s Legacy Cat was at Zhao Feng’s side all this time. For the mighty Heaven’s Legacy Cat to have predicted all this was well within expectations.

“All you’re doing is delaying the time of your death.” Ancient God Nether Spring didn’t care that much.

Moreover, the Devil Saint God Duo would probably catch up to Zhao Feng pretty quickly.

He didn’t demand that they capture Zhao Feng, only disrupt and suppress him. If they couldn’t do that, then they at least needed to make sure that they didn’t lose his trail. Once Ancient God Nether Spring and his Rank Nine Samsara Immortal Body arrived, everything would be settled.

…

The corridors of the Heavenly Demon Hall were as complicated as a maze.

 Thwish!

The wings on Zhao Feng’s back buzzed as he traversed the corridors as a golden streak of light.

 I hope that Ancient God Luo Ling can break through as soon as possible,  Zhao Feng thought to himself.

In truth, he could’ve just left together with Ancient God Luo Ling. But Zhao Feng was still a little unwilling to leave, so he made that deal with Ancient God Luo Ling. Once Ancient God Luo Ling broke through into Rank Nine, they would no longer need to sneak through the Heavenly Demon Hall.

In addition, the person who benefited the most from this deal was Ancient God Luo Ling. From a certain perspective, Zhao Feng was forming a good relationship with the Spacetime Sacred Land.

 They came so quickly!  Zhao Feng’s eyes flashed.

Zhao Feng suddenly took a turn at the next fork.

At the same moment, the Devil Saint God Duo emerged from the corridor ahead of him.

“Intruder!” the pair simultaneously shouted.

They had received Ancient God Nether Spring’s order; they only needed to hold down the intruder or at the very least make sure not to lose him. But when they first saw Zhao Feng, the two of them were rather startled.

Based on what Ancient God Nether Spring had said, the strength of Zhao Feng’s group was far above theirs, so they were not allowed to engage in a direct confrontation with him. But for some reason, Zhao Feng fled the moment he saw them.

If Zhao Feng was stronger than them, why did he run? The Devil Saint God Duo were truly confused.

“After him!” The two immediately pursued.

Zhao Feng paid them no mind. He was a little faster than them anyway. If this continued, he was certain to throw off their pursuit.

“Damn! This kid is faster than us!” The Devil Saint God Duo had unsightly looks on their faces.

In truth, if Zhao Feng put all his strength into flying, these two would never be able to keep up. However, Zhao Feng had just been through a major battle, which had consumed a significant amount of energy. He had even more important things to do later on, so there was no need to expend extra energy on something like this. Besides, throwing off the pursuit of this pair simply wasn’t important.

“Devil Execution!”

“Holy Light Fairy Spirit Sword!”

The Devil Saint God Duo used their strongest attacks to disrupt Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng dodged and continued to ignore the pair as he randomly flew through the halls of the Heavenly Demon Hall.

 Still not done?  Delaying for too long would be dangerous. Zhao Feng sent a part of his mind into the Spacetime Robe.

At this moment, Ancient God Luo Ling was at the crucial moment in the formation of her Divine Stage.

Suddenly, Zhao Feng slowed down.

“Oh no!” Zhao Feng grimaced and began to fly toward the Devil Saint God Duo.

“Haha, where are you running?” The Devil Saint God Duo coldly chuckled as they attacked Zhao Feng.

They were not one bit surprised by Zhao Feng’s shift in attitude.

At this moment, a terrifying energy appeared nearby. The area gradually became scorching hot while the air began to crackle with electricity.

“Intruder, die!” A deafening roar caused the air to tremble.

A giant red figure suddenly appeared at the end of the hall. It had the body of a human and the head of a dragon. Two wings sprouted from its back and its face was savage and despotic. It was none other than the Rank Nine Samsara Immortal Body, the Thunderflame Ancient Dragon.
