King of Gods

“Zhao Feng, do you have any way to get rid of this Mark of Destruction?”

Nan Gongsheng’s Divine Sense didn’t manage to escape the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s senses. Zhao Feng’s existence had already raised the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s attention. This person definitely wasn’t simple if they were able to see through the sensing abilities of the Mark of Destruction.

“For now, it’s not important whether I can deal with mark.” Zhao Feng shook his head and dodged the question.

Nan Gongsheng couldn’t help but sigh. Indeed, even if they could resolve the Mark of Destruction, it didn’t mean much at the moment. The Black Serpent Dragon would definitely keep a close eye on Xie Yang Palace. The Black Serpent Dragon was still unrivalled, the Mark of Destruction was just a method to restrict and threaten them a little.

If I use the power of the God Tribulation Lightning, I might be able to get rid of the Mark of Destruction, Zhao Feng thought.

In comparison to the Cursed Words of Death, this simplified Mark of Destruction was much easier to handle. After all, the price required in order to use the Cursed Words of Death was massive.

There was another reason as well; the Black Serpent Dragon was currently very weak. Its strength might not even be one one-hundredth of its peak. Adding on the fact that it still had the Yuan Sealing Divine Chain restricting it, many of its methods were limited.

However, Zhao Feng didn’t want to get rid of the Mark of Destruction so quickly because that would make the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon wary.

Outside Xie Yang Palace:

“Interesting. The talents, bloodlines, and techniques of these people are not normal. Even the Spiritual Race bloodline and a complete Void God Intent have appeared.” The playfulness on the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s face became wider. The strongest of these humans was only comparable to an Emperor; how big of a wave could they possibly make? Even Emperors were just slightly-bigger ants in the eyes of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon. They were nothing worth mentioning.

On a piece of flat land, the elites all gathered together.

“Only Brother Xuanyuan and I don’t have a Mark of Destruction. Why not let us two decide on what to do?” the Ninth Prince suggested.

Hearing that, the remaining people nodded their heads and didn’t speak. If they spoke, the Mark of Destruction within their bodies would be able to sense it very easily.

Those from Sky Suspension Palace and the Great Gan Imperials felt lucky; their strongest geniuses had entered Xie Yang Palace and weren’t hit by the Mark of Destruction.

The Ninth Prince, Xuanyuan Wen, and company soon came to a conclusion, which was agreed upon by everyone.

“We have two things we need to do.” The Ninth Prince paused.

Two things: find the key to the Yuan Sealing Divine Chain and figure out a way to escape the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s control.

“If we find the key to the Yuan Sealing Divine Chain first, we can use it to threaten the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.” The Ninth Prince smiled faintly as he spoke in a low tone.

Everyone’s eyes lit up, and Zhao Feng nodded his head in agreement.

After the outline of the plan was set, the forces spread out to find the fortune within Xie Yang Palace as well as the key to the Yuan Sealing Divine Chain.

Whoosh!

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng turned into a layer of silver and purple as they sped toward the depths of Xie Yang Palace.

“The best thing to do is increase our strength. This Xie Yang Palace is a mysterious palace of an Ancient God, so the fortune contained within should far exceed the outside world.”

A hint of expectation appeared in Zhao Feng’s eyes.

Most of the buildings within Xie Yang Palace were protected by the God’s Forbidden Array, but they weren’t as threatening as the main portion of the array.

Every brick that was destroyed here would recover with the help of the God’s Forbidden Array, and as an Ancient God’s Palace, the strength of the materials was far stronger than normal. Normal attacks would do nothing to them.

Shua!

At a certain moment in time, a silver and purple light stopped in front of a fruit forest.

“Hmm?”

“What pure Heaven Earth essence. The Heaven Earth essence here far surpasses most other treasures.”

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng were surprised. The surges of Heaven Earth essence came from the nearby fruit forest. Looking over, they saw Spiritual Fruits growing on the trees in the fruit forest, and the Heaven Earth essence radiating from them brought a thick Yuan Qi.

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng couldn’t help but go closer.

“There’s no God’s Forbidden Array guarding it?”

They were surprised. Some of the fruits in the fruit forest were extremely rare in the outside world, and they could either be eaten directly or refined into pills. However, what surprised them most was that this fruit forest wasn’t guarded by the God’s Forbidden Array.

Miao miao!

The little thieving cat suddenly appeared and jumped onto a fruit tree, then started to eat some fruits.

“Snowing Pear… Camel Dragon Green Raisins… Blood Yang….”

Zhao Feng used his powerful memory to identify these fruits.

Whoosh!

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng also started to pick some fruits. The process was extremely straightforward and wasn’t disrupted by anyone.

“Maybe these fruits are aren’t that special in this place,” Zhao Feng concluded while he was picking the fruits.

After identifying them, he realized that these were fruits meant to be eaten on a daily basis, but they contained large sources of Heaven Earth essence due to the unique environment of Xie Yang Palace.

These Spiritual Fruits were extremely useful to those at the Origin Core Realm in helping increase one’s cultivation. They even helped Void God Realms to a certain degree.

“These fruits are almost completely extinct in the outside world.” Nan Gongsheng was excited. If he could take them out, they would be worth a lot, and there was a huge number of them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Right at this moment, two or three groups closed in on the fruit forest.

“There’s no array guarding this many Spiritual Fruits?”

These people were all stunned.

Ceng! Ceng! Ceng!

These three groups soon started to pick the fruits as well. Since there were at least several thousand Spiritual Fruits, no one fought with each other.

“Purple-Haired Demonic Duo!”

One of the forces came from the Nine Darkness Palace. Jiu Wuji in his black battle robes squinted his eyes as he inspected Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng.

However, everyone knew that this duo was troublesome and weird. Although there were only two of them, these three-star forces didn’t want to offend them, or rather, they didn’t dare to.

In just a short while, the Spiritual Fruits were picked clean. What was surprising was that, in the process, none of the three forces fought each other another. The main reason was that there were just too many Spiritual Fruits; each force got at least a thousand.

Everyone was filled with excitement. Although they weren’t peerless Spiritual Fruits, they were still happy that they were able to gather so many without using any effort.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

After picking the fruits, the forces headed toward the depths of Xie Yang Palace.

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng ate the fruits, and they were in front of most of the groups. At this moment, their advantage of being just a duo came into play. The normal members of other forces hadn’t reached the Void God Realm, whereas Zhao Feng’s and Nan Gongsheng’s strength far exceeded most of these geniuses and elites.

The duo stopped after traveling about a dozen miles.

Ding! Ding! Crack!

In a forest ahead, a group was cutting bamboo shoots, and there was a metallic ringing sound. These bamboo shoots were green, and they were about several meters high. The tallest of them was more than a dozen meters and gave off a pure spiritual aura.

“Sky Rhyme Bamboo!” Zhao Feng recognized the bamboo immediately and gave a weird look.

Sky Rhyme Bamboo was a material used to craft Earth-grade weapons and make instruments of the Dao of Entertainment. In the outside world, this bamboo was almost extinct.

“Hahaha, it’s extremely hard to find Sky Rhyme Bamboo at such a level in the outside world. The quality of this bamboo is probably enough to craft high-tier Earth-grade weapons.”

“Cut faster! We’ll be rich after we leave the Divine Illusion Dimension.”

The group was from a three-star power.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A beam of silver and purple flashed through the air and landed amidst the Sky Rhyme Bamboo forest.

“I’d feel bad if we didn’t cut some of this high-quality Sky Rhyme Bamboo and take it back.”

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng started to cut the bamboo as well, but the Sky Rhyme Bamboo was extremely tough; normal weapons couldn’t damage it.

Bam!

A silver-purple spatial blade formed in Nan Gongsheng’s hand as he used his spatial talent to cut a bamboo shoot with every stroke.

Miao miao!

The little thieving cat gripped a shadow-like dagger and easily cut through the bamboo shoots. It was even more relaxed than Nan Gongsheng.

Zhao Feng didn’t have many sharp tools or weapons, so instead, he just flew to the top of a tall bamboo and gazed down.

His expression turned weird at what he saw. With the help of the God’s Spiritual Eye, he saw that all the elites and geniuses that had entered Xie Yang Palace were taking every patch of grass and all the flowers in Xie Yang Palace as if they were possessed.

Everything in Xie Yang Palace was gold.

“Even the most normal brick or flower in Xie Yang Palace is a rare treasure for us outsiders.” Zhao Feng couldn’t help but sigh.

One had to admit that the difference between Gods and mortals was extremely big.

According to his inspections, he saw that the more important structures were guarded by the God’s Forbidden Array. The things that they could take were basically useless and had no value to the owner of the palace. Even the servants didn’t care for these items.

Simply put, the grass and flowers were the same as air and dirt to those who lived in the palace.

On a hill opposite them, another group was crazily digging into the ground.

Next to a lake, several older elites were full of excitement as they jumped into the lake and started to catch fish or gather herbs.

Zhao Feng’s face twitched as his left eye scanned over the palace. These geniuses and elites of the outside world were like hobos that entered a mansion and started stealing everything they could carry.

Zhao Feng was one of these hobos as well. Thinking up to there, even he felt slightly embarrassed.

“Idiotic humans, no matter how much trash you collect, all of you will die if you don’t finish the mission within a month,” a cold voice full of mockery sounded next to their ears.

Everyone that had a Mark of Destruction heard this voice.

The scenery in Xie Yang Palace made the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon feel angry and like laughing at the same time. It really hoped that “iron would turn into steel.” These humans were attracted by all the useless bricks and flowers around Xie Yang Palace and giving it their all to take them.
