King of Gods

Chapter 1285 – Reigniting Hope

As Zhao Feng’s energy soared into the air, everyone around him shut their mouths and stared at him.

“This is… the energy of an Ancient God’s Divine Stage!”

“But how? How could Zhao Feng be an Ancient God expert!?”

After a few moments of silence, the area exploded with cries of shock and doubt.

Zhao Feng revealing himself as an Ancient God expert was even more surprising than Ancient God Gilded Gold’s abrupt appearance. After all, Ancient God Gilded Gold had been a Rank Six True God for some time. It wasn’t that unusual for him to break through into the Ancient God level. But Zhao Feng was different; he only broke into Rank Six one year ago.

They had never heard of anyone that was able to go from Rank Six to Rank Seven Ancient God in just one year. This was simply inconceivable.

“Rank Seven Ancient God!”

“I must be seeing things!”

The upper echelon of the Spiritual Race all stood up. At this moment, they felt like they could see a sliver of hope.

They didn’t think about how Zhao Feng had become an Ancient God, they only hoped that Zhao Feng could salvage this embarrassing situation for the Spiritual Race.

“Now that Zhao Feng has shown the power of an Ancient God, Ancient God Gilded Gold will definitely choose to rest, meaning that Zhao Feng can pick his opponent….” The Fourth Elder began to calculate.

If Zhao Feng could defeat three True Gods, the Spiritual Race would not fare so badly in this gambling match.

“He was actually a Rank Seven Ancient God? That’s impossible!” Ancient God Ice Origin shook his head, unable to believe what he was seeing.

“This kid is actually an Ancient God? How did he manage to do it?” Elder Jin of the Blazing Gold Race was perturbed and suspicious.

He was no longer thinking about the outcome of this gambling match, but about just how Zhao Feng had managed to reach Rank Seven and just how terrifying he would be in the future.

This boy must be eliminated! After a long while, Elder Jin’s face suddenly darkened.

He was once more remembered that the Blazing Gold Race had sent an Ancient God to intercept and kill Zhao Feng. Things looked very grim for this Ancient God now, and it was probably impossible for him to return to the Blazing Gold Race.

“Interesting!” On the fighting stage, Ancient God Gilded Gold stared at Zhao Feng with great interest.

“Zhao Feng, if you can defeat three people, the Spiritual Race will give you one hundred and fifty thousand contribution points!” the Fourth Elder directly messaged Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng might have only become an Ancient God recently, and he was probably far weaker than the two Ancient Gods of the Blazing Gold Race.

“If you give me five hundred thousand contribution points, I will defeat all of them. How about it?” At this moment, Zhao Feng suddenly spoke his request out loud.

“What!?” Every member of the Spiritual Race was wide-eyed and slack-jawed, seemingly petrified to the ground.

They were all hoping and praying that Zhao Feng could just defeat three opponents, but Zhao Feng was saying that he could defeat all of them, including the two Ancient Gods.

The members of the other factions, including the Blazing Gold Race, all had looks of disbelief.

“Ignorant… laughable!” Ancient God Ice Origin coldly snorted, but inside he was quite upset.

Originally, he was the trump card of the Spiritual Race – its only hope. But now, Zhao Feng was the Spiritual Race’s hope – its last hope.

“He’s gone mad!”

“Even if he’s an Ancient God, can he really fight against seven people in a row?”

The nearby spectators couldn’t help but shake their heads and laugh. Zhao Feng was overestimating his strength too much.

“Zhao Feng, don’t be in such a rush. As long as you can defeat three…” the Fourth Elder immediately messaged, advising Zhao Feng to be cautious.

Zhao Feng’s expression darkened while his brow creased. If he said something like that, then he was confident in his chances of bringing it to fruition.

“Okay, I promise, but you should defeat three people first.” The Fourth Elder saw the look on Zhao Feng’s face and decided to agree, though he still added a cautionary reminder.

“Okay, then let’s begin!” Zhao Feng had no interest in the chatter of the Spiritual Race’s upper echelon, and with a shout, he jumped onto the stage.

“I will rest for a while, but I’d like to see just how you defeat seven disciples of the Blazing Gold Race!” Ancient God Gilded Gold coldly harrumphed before leaving the stage.

He dearly wanted to give a lesson to this reckless person, but he knew that, in his current condition, fighting an Ancient God would result in certain defeat.

“Since you’ve left, it’s my turn to choose someone!” Zhao Feng’s gaze immediately scanned the seven Blazing Gold Race fighters.

The upper echelon members of the Spiritual Race were all extremely agitated. With Zhao Feng’s Ancient God cultivation, he could pick any Rank Six True God and easily defeat them.

“I pick you – Ancient God Gold Fury.” Zhao Feng shot Ancient God Gold Fury an indifferent glance.

“Ancient God Gold Fury!?” The upper echelon members of the Spiritual Race were all dumbfounded and speechless.

“What…? Ancient God Gold Fury!?” Ancient God Gilded Gold, who had just flown off the stage moments ago, almost dropped back down.

“This kid really doesn’t know his limits. It seems like I won’t get another chance to fight!” Ancient God Gilded Gold growled.

A person who had just broken into the Ancient God level actually challenged an outstanding and experienced Ancient God. How was this anything but suicidal?

The crowd was also in an uproar. Everyone believed that Zhao Feng would choose a True God, but he instead went straight for Ancient God Gold Fury. It was like he was trying to be as outrageous as possible.

“Haha, I didn’t think this would be how I enter the stage!” Ancient God Gold Fury exploded into laughter as he stepped onto the stage.

He was a spectator for this gambling match the entire time, making him feel rather envious of Ancient God Gilded Gold. Now, he could finally show his strength.

“Relax, you’ll be going back very quickly.” Zhao Feng’s face suddenly turned cold.

Swish!

Circulating his Sacred Lightning Body, he transformed into a thunderbolt and shot at Ancient God Gold Fury.

“Haha, the ignorant will always end up with wretched fates!” Ancient God Gold Fury faintly smiled as he activated his Golden Light Sacred Body. His body was instantly covered in a layer of golden tattoos and seething golden flames.

“Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain: Water Lightning Sacred Palm!” Zhao Feng released his Tribulation Lightning Domain to suppress Ancient God Gold Fury while also sending out a green-blue palm of lightning.

Inside the Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain, the palm of light was even stronger.

Ancient God Gold Fury grimaced slightly. Zhao Feng was much stronger than he had expected.

“Celestial Flame Fist!” Ancient God Gold Fury poured his physical strength and Divine Power into his fist and punched.

Boom! Bang!

The two attacks collided, and Ancient God Gold Fury’s attack was the first to shatter.

“So strong!” Ancient God Gold Fury’s complexion darkened.

If Zhao Feng was weaker than him, then it wouldn’t matter whether water countered fire because the attack wouldn’t have enough power. He realized that he was still underestimating Zhao Feng’s strength.

“Oh no!” Ancient God Gold Fury suddenly sensed danger coming from behind him.

While Ancient God Gold Fury was surprised, Zhao Feng had used his Space Intent to blink behind him and launch a furious assault.

Kabooom!

Ancient God Gold Fury used the full strength of his bloodline and physical body, activating his secret defensive techniques to fend off that palm of Water Lightning.

Thump thump!

Ancient God Gold Fury had to retreat two steps before he was able to resist the blow, but before he could recover, Zhao Feng blinked to the other side and launched another thunderous attack.

With his Space Intent, Zhao Feng had the advantage in speed and had the complete initiative in this battle.

“Ancient God Gold Fury is helpless against him!”

“He’s skilled in Five Elements Intent and Space Intent! This boy has abnormal comprehension ability!”

The surrounding spectators couldn’t help but sigh in praise. They had all underestimated Zhao Feng’s strength.

“How could this be!? It’s Ancient God Gold Fury that’s being suppressed!?” Ancient God Ice Origin’s face was stricken with shock.

Earlier, everyone believed that Zhao Feng didn’t know the limits of his strength by challenging Ancient God Gold Fury, but now, it was Ancient God Gold Fury who was being suppressed by Zhao Feng.

“Good!” The upper echelon of the Spiritual Race exclaimed in surprise.

From the current situation, Zhao Feng was completely capable of defeating Ancient God Gold Fury. After that, he only needed to defeat two True Gods!

On the stage, Ancient God Gold Fury was completely suppressed.

“Don’t get too arrogant!” Ancient God Gold Fury suddenly roared, his entire body exploding with golden flames. A powerful physical energy began to fiercely clash with Zhao Feng’s Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain. At the same time, a large black hammer appeared in Ancient God Gold Fury’s hand.

Kabooom!

Black flames erupted from the hammer, twisting together with the golden flames on Ancient God Gold Fury’s body.

“Seven Moves of the Flame Devil!” Ancient God Gold Fury began to wave around the high-quality divine weapon in his hand.

Hwooom!

Black and golden flames began to layer over each other, forming a dreadful firestorm. Zhao Feng’s Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain was almost instantly destroyed.

“Forbidden Illusion Lost World!” Zhao Feng’s left eye focused on the center of the black and gold firestorm and unleashed a ripple of Eye Intent.

Bzzz! Hwoom!

A dreamy mist began to spread out from his left eye. In the storm, Ancient God Gold Fury couldn’t help but focus on Zhao Feng’s left eye, causing his skill to fall apart.

“Now is the moment!” Zhao Feng seized the opportunity and condensed the Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Domain into his palm, fusing it with his Divine Power before unleashing a palm.

This palm approached from an extremely crafty angle, charging in through the weakest point of the black-gold firestorm.

Boom! Bang!

Ancient God Gold Fury’s body was thrown back several dozen feet.

Zhao Feng didn’t rest, continuing with several more palms.

“What a powerful eye-bloodline technique!” The pain allowed Ancient God Gold Fury to break out of Zhao Feng’s illusion art. He immediately got up and looked at Zhao Feng with fear.

He was actually wearing a defensive soul divine artifact, but he was still entranced by Zhao Feng’s illusion art. Fortunately for him, his physical defenses were extremely formidable, and his wounds were not too severe.

“Flame Devil Heaven-Destroying Move!” Ancient God Gold Fury gathered up all his energy and used his strongest skill to fend off Zhao Feng’s attacks, unleashing a giant hammer made of black and golden flames.

“This is… Space Intent!?” Ancient God Gold Fury suddenly sensed a weak ripple of Space Intent on his body.

“Tribulation Lightning Eye Slash!” Zhao Feng’s left eye suddenly exploded with Destructive Tribulation Lightning energy. At the same moment, a giant blade made of white lightning cut across Ancient God Gold Fury’s body, causing scorching golden blood to drench the floor.

“Spatial eye-bloodline technique!?” Ancient God Gold Fury had an extremely unsightly look on his face. He had been guarding against Zhao Feng’s illusory eye-bloodline technique, and he never imagined that Zhao Feng would use an offensive spatial eye-bloodline technique instead.

Swish!

Zhao Feng’s body suddenly appeared next to Ancient God and unleashed a flurry of attacks. Ancient God Gold Fury had no time to heal the enormous wound on his body before he was once more severely wounded.

Plush!

Ancient God Gold Fury vomited several mouthfuls of blood, his fighting power plunged, and he became incapable of defending against Zhao Feng’s attacks.

Boom! Bang!

A single palm sent Ancient God Gold Fury flying off the stage.

“An Ancient God of the Blazing Gold Race? He wasn’t any big deal. Just me alone is enough to sweep over the rest of you!” Zhao Feng leisurely placed his hands behind his back and playfully smiled at the remaining fighters of the Blazing Gold Race.

These words were almost the same words that had come from Ancient God Gilded Gold’s mouth after he defeated Ancient God Ice Origin. Zhao Feng was now returning them to the Blazing Gold Race.
