King of Gods

Chapter 1259 – Battle Against the Eye of Life

The Ancient Gods in the sky slowly turned somber and quiet.

The Fourth Elder of the Spiritual Race focused his eyes on Xiahou Wu. This tribulation of challenges was just about to end, and he was preparing to take Zhao Feng as his disciple. However, Xiahou Wu of the Life Sacred Land suddenly stepped forward.

The Life Sacred Land was the overlord faction of the Ziling Zone, and Xiahou Wu was a core disciple of this faction – a peak Rank Six with the Eye of Life. He was many times stronger than Zhang Yutong.

He had just witnessed Zhao Feng produce miracle after miracle, but this Ancient God Elder of the Spiritual Race still had no confidence in Zhao Feng’s victory. However, Xiahou Wu only displayed interest in Zhao Feng’s eye-bloodline and wanted to have an instructive duel. No hostility was displayed, so the Elder did not have any good reason to stop the match.

“Life Sacred Land core disciple Xiahou Wu!”

“Heavens, Xiahou Wu wants to fight with Zhao Feng?”

The surrounding Spiritual Race disciples were all flabbergasted. All of them feared the Life Sacred Land.

“Has he already stirred the fighting will of the Life Sacred Land’s Xiahou Wu?” In the crowd, Yuan Long had a rather complicated expression on his face.

Ever since he met Zhao Feng, he had never regarded him very highly. He believed that Zhao Feng was just a low-level being from another dimension with no ancient bloodline. Anyone in the crowd was better than him.

However, Zhao Feng suddenly put on this dazzling performance, crushing many Spiritual Race disciples, and then displayed the strength of a Rank Six True God, making him the most talented disciple in all the Spiritual Race. Even the peak Rank Six True God of the Life Sacred Land, Xiahou Wu, couldn’t help but issue a challenge against Zhao Feng.

“The Eye of Life?” Zhao Feng began to size up Xiahou Wu.

Han Ning’er also had the Eye of Life, but in terms of how awakened it was, Xiahou Wu was far above her. And unlike Han Ning’er, Xiahou Wu could use his Eye of Life in battle.

Zhao Feng was also very curious to see what sort of fighting abilities the Eye of Life could grant Xiahou Wu.

“Okay. Those people just now weren’t worthy of me using the abilities of my eye-bloodline!” Zhao Feng’s expression became serious.

“What? That kid’s eye-bloodline…?” Many of the Spiritual Race disciples around the stage were stunned. It turned out that Zhao Feng had never even used his most powerful eye-bloodline in all those battles.

“This can’t be…!”

Those core disciples that Zhao Feng had defeated shook their heads, as if trying to deny this fact. Zhang Yutong’s expression turned gloomy while his heart seethed with anger and reluctance.

The gazes of the Spiritual Race Ancient Gods instantly became profound and thoughtful, seemingly greatly anticipating this coming battle.

“Okay!” Xiahou Wu appeared to be extremely excited. Zhao Feng being so confident in his bloodline proved that its abilities were abnormal, which was precisely what Xiahou Wu wanted.

Boom!

Xiahou Wu’s body suddenly surged with an energy as heavy as a mountain. His body began to swell, and black tattoos slowly began to emerge on his skin.

A physical pressure suddenly descended on the stage, as heavy as a mountain. Even Zhao Feng was caught off guard, his body trembling under the immense pressure.

But it was far from over.

Bzzzz!

Wu’s dark green eyes glimmered with a green luster as boundless Life energy surged into his body. Bolstered by this powerful Life energy, Xiahou Wu’s physical strength increased until he was like a steel mountain towering into the heavens.

Suddenly, the steel mountain moved.

Boom! Bang!

Xiahou Wu was like a flash of pitch-black light as he appeared next to Zhao Feng.

What incredible speed! Zhao Feng was shocked. As expected, a genius from a Sacred Land cannot be underestimated.

Swish!

Zhao Feng immediately used his Sacred Lightning Body to release his Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain.

Even Xiahou Wu felt suppressed by this Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain.

Boom! Bang!

The collision of the two unleashed a heaven-shaking explosion.

“What dreadful strength!”

The crowd was astounded by the monstrous force unleashed on the stage. They found it difficult to imagine how much pressure Zhao Feng was enduring in this direct confrontation with Xiahou Wu.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Zhao Feng retreated three steps, each step leaving a clear print on the stage. He could feel an intense ache in his bones, and his hands felt like they had snapped from receiving Xiahou Wu’s punch.

Zhao Feng immediately used his Intent energy and his inextinguishable constitution to recover.

“I didn’t think that there was someone outside a Sacred Land that could directly take one of my punches!” Xiahou Wu’s eyes exploded with fighting intent.

As a core disciple of the Life Sacred Land, he naturally cultivated the best body-refining techniques. Coupled with the aid he received from various precious herbs and the Eye of Life, he had achieved incredible results in the Dao of Body Refining.

“It’s my turn now!”

Zhao Feng’s left eye flashed with a dreamy silver luster. In an instant, Zhao Feng’s expression calmed down. Just by focusing his left eye on Xiahou Wu, he could analyze a great deal of information about his opponent.

But he was not using his left eye for analysis.

“Forbidden Illusion Lost World!” Zhao Feng’s left eye unleashed an astonishing Eye Intent that gradually formed into an illusory palace.

Bzzzz!

A haze appeared in Xiahou Wu’s dark green eyes, but the jade belt around his waist immediately let out a dark green light that seeped into Xiahou Wu’s soul.

Thwish!

Zhao Feng approached Xiahou Wu like a bolt of lightning, the fingers of his right hand thrumming with the energy of an ancient bloodline.

“Sky Penetrating Finger!” Zhao Feng plunged a finger at Xiahou Wu’s chest.

What a powerful Soul eye-bloodline technique! Even with my divine artifact protecting my soul, I still ended up being affected. At this moment, clarity returned to Xiahou Wu’s eyes.

He immediately gathered his Divine Power near the area that Zhao Feng was attacking.

Kaploosh!

Zhao Feng’s finger that was fused with his bloodline power pierced straight through Xiahou Wu’s sturdy body.

“Xiahou Wu’s been wounded! Zhao Feng’s attack actually managed to pierce through Xiahou Wu’s defense!” The Spiritual Race disciples all gasped in surprise.

After his attack struck true, Zhao Feng swiftly backed up and began to coldly observe Xiahou Wu.

“You’re not bad. You actually managed to wound me!” Xiahou Wu laughed, caring little for the wound on his body. After all, it took only an instant for this wound to heal.

Not even Zhao Feng’s finger that combined his bloodline power and Tribulation Lightning energy had been very effective.

But Xiahou Wu appeared to be much more serious now. Zhao Feng’s eye-bloodline technique just now told him that his opponent was very skilled in soul attacks.

If one had to say that Xiahou Wu had a weakness, it would be with regards to his soul.

His body is fused with the Eye of Life, so vitality endlessly flows into him, making him extremely sturdy. He’s far more powerful than I expected! Zhao Feng’s left eye allowed him to see everything.

“Eat another punch!” Xiahou Wu activated his Eye of Life and charged at Zhao Feng again.

Even before the punch arrived, Zhao Feng already felt like the terrifying pressure it exerted was going to knock him to the floor.

Right at this moment, Life Intent surged around Zhao Feng, causing tenacious green vines to sprout from the ground and hold him tight. Xiahou Wu had used a binding eye-bloodline technique through his Eye of Life!

Zhao Feng was stunned, and he once more confirmed that Sacred Land geniuses could not be looked down on.

Unable to escape, Zhao Feng seemed like he was about to be crushed by Xiahou Wu.

“Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame!” Countless white arcs of lightning began to crackle within Zhao Feng’s left eye, and Destruction Intent that could destroy souls began to surge with powerful soul ripples.

After using that eye-bloodline technique a moment ago, Zhao Feng realized that using eye-bloodline techniques had become much easier, and the effects were now much stronger.

Kacrack!

A twisted bolt of Tribulation Lightning carrying dreadful Soul energy exploded in Xiahou Wu’s face.

“Ah…!” Xiahou Wu immediately stopped and began to scream.

Even though he was already on his guard against such a move and even had this soul-protecting treasure, he was still unable to endure Zhao Feng’s Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame.

Zhao Feng quickly broke free of his restraints and activated his left eye. Powerful Soul energy began to barrage Xiahou Wu’s soul.

Right now, he could almost instantly use some of the minor eye-bloodline techniques without even thinking.

Cling! Crack!

The jade belt on Xiahou Wu’s waist began to show cracks, unable to endure the onslaught of Zhao Feng’s soul attacks.

“This… is his real strength?” A few disciples in the crowd were in a shocked daze.

Xiahou Wu had a profound cultivation, the Eye of Life, and a soul-protecting divine artifact, but he was still forced into such a wretched state by Zhao Feng’s Soul eye-bloodline techniques. A normal person probably wouldn’t even be able to last a few seconds!

Buzz! Bzzz!

Xiahou Wu’s Eye of Life madly worked. Its powerful Life energy could maintain his body at peak condition, so it was also somewhat effective at resisting these Soul eye-bloodline techniques. Moreover, Xiahou Wu began to develop a resistance to these eye-bloodline techniques that Zhao Feng was repeatedly using.

Swish!

Xiahou Wu’s body suddenly vanished. In the next moment, Xiahou Wu appeared right in front of Zhao Feng, his Eye of Life madly whirring. The powerful Life energy was like a flame blazing within his body.

“Heaven Shatter!” Xiahou Wu condensed a ball of dark green light in his palm, which exuded heart-palpitating energy.

What a powerful technique! Zhao Feng sensed danger. Being struck by this attack would result in either death or heavy injury.

It seemed like Xiahou Wu planned to use this attack to decide the outcome of this battle!

God Eye Disintegration! Zhao Feng focused his gaze on Xiahou Wu and sent out a surge of silvery light.

Swish!

The Life energy around Xiahou Wu rapidly dissipated. The boundless vitality in his body soon began to follow. The supreme technique he had been gathering energy for also began to weaken.

“This… what sort of eye-bloodline technique is this?” Xiahou Wu was almost too stunned for words.

He suddenly realized that the vitality in his body was rapidly fading away. The Life energy surging out of his Eye of Life was somehow unable to keep up with this loss.

This meant that his Eye of Life had already ceased to be useful. His supreme technique would never be able to reach its maximum power!

“Heheh!” Zhao Feng faintly smiled.

The disintegration speed was inconceivably fast now. If Xiahou Wu didn’t have the Eye of Life, Zhao Feng would have already finished disintegrating all the Life energy in his body.

Suddenly, Zhao Feng stopped the God Eye Disintegration.

God Eye Duplication!

Zhao Feng’s left eye unleashed an illusory mist that shrouded his body.

Boom! Bzzzzz!

An endless flood of Life energy surged out of Zhao Feng’s body. At this moment, Zhao Feng felt like his physical strength had increased by at least three times.

Thwish!

Using Space Intent and Lightning Intent, Zhao Feng instantly appeared next to Xiahou Wu. He condensed all the Life energy he had duplicated into his Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Divine Power.

Brrrooom!

Even before he punched, dragons of lightning were savagely roaring in the air.

“How could this be? The Life energy on your body…” Xiahou Wu found it impossible to explain the scene before him.

Boom! Bang!

Zhao Feng punched, sending a massive dragon of five-colored lightning into Xiahou Wu’s body.

Cling! Crack!

The boundary array shattered, and Xiahou Wu’s body was flung several li away, pulverizing a distant palace.
