King of Gods

“Eh?” God Lord Vastsoul was taken aback.

He believed that, even if Zhao Feng wasn’t killed by this strike, he would at least be heavily injured, but this result was completely unexpected.

“This kid was hiding his strength!” The Crimson Elder’s face turned stern.

Zhao Feng was now stronger than he was in their previous clash. Perhaps this was precisely the reason that Swift Wind Gate God Lord told Zhao Feng to hold the rear.

“Hmph, we have to use this chance to kill him!” God Lord Vastsoul angrily snorted.

The stronger Zhao Feng was, the greater the threat he posed to them. This was the ideal opportunity. Before the members of Swift Wind Gate arrived, they had to kill him.

“Seal the Heavens, Harden the Earth!” God Lord Vastsoul spread out his arms, unleashing vast and weighty Divine Power. The world darkened as immense pressure weighed down.

God Lord Vastsoul possessed a Law of Earth. Not only was he not affected by the Burning Heaven Sea, he was actually a little stronger than normal. The scorching flames also inflamed the Earth energy in the world. In addition, this heavy earth domain was constantly contracting, increasing the pressure within.

“Chaos Heaven Black Hole, devour!” Zhao Feng fully activated the devouring energy of the Chaos Heaven Black Hole.

In a flash, the pressure around him instantly lightened. Meanwhile, the Chaos Heaven Black Hole became even stronger from absorbing this power.

“This kid’s defensive skill can actually absorb other energies!? Hurry and strike!” God Lord Vastsoul cried out in alarm.

His right hand shot forward, balled up in a fist. Within the Law Domain, a giant hand of rock formed in front of Zhao Feng.

Boom!

The giant rock hand hurtled toward Zhao Feng.

Boom! Swish! Swish!

The Crimson Elder immediately waved his saber, sending out dreadful waves of flame.

“It’s no good…. The two of them working together are rather hard to deal with!” Zhao Feng’s expression darkened.

God Lord Vastsoul and the Crimson Elder had rather powerful attacks. The Chaos Heaven Black Hole would not be able to last for long. And since he was deep within the Law Domain of a Second Heaven God Lord, his speed was limited. Thus, unless Zhao Feng used his God Eye’s power or the Ancestral Artifact fragment, he would find it very difficult to escape.

But once he used these two things, it would send these two God Lords into a frenzy, perhaps even mobilizing the Vermillion Bird Pavilion behind them.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

Zhao Feng swung his Chaos Origin Tribulation Lightning Sword, doing his utmost to weaken the oncoming attacks.

I can only use my God Eye’s power! Zhao Feng’s eyes dimmed. As long as he didn’t make it too obvious, these people would find it very hard to detect the Ninth God Eye.

But at this moment, a relaxed and casual voice rang out over the battlefield; “Good Sir, do you need help?”

“There’s someone else?” Zhao Feng was rather surprised. Not even he had noticed this newcomer until now.

Of course, this was partially because he had sealed his Dream God Eye’s power and was in the middle of a pitched battle.

“It’s you…!” God Lord Vastsoul turned to look and immediately paled.

Zhao Feng turned to look and saw a white-robed youth with a semitransparent body and a weak aura. He was holding a white fan and standing crookedly in the air, a smile in his bright eyes.

“Tang Bai, I advise you not to interfere in this matter!” God Lord Vastsoul was angered and threateningly spoke.

“And what happens if I do interfere? If he’s willing to join my team, he’ll be on my side!” Tang Bai rolled his eyes, and then he smiled at Zhao Feng: “What do you think? Join my team and I’ll help you out against these two old fogeys!”

Zhao Feng was startled. Although Tang Bai was availing himself of this opportunity to threaten him, neither his attitude nor his tone was of someone who was threatening another. Tang Bai gave off a much better impression than Vermillion Bird Pavilion or Swift Wind Gate.

In addition, although this person was not that old, he was astonishingly a peak First Heaven. Moreover, Tang Bai was not afraid of a Second Heaven God Lord, nor did he fear the Vermillion Bird Pavilion backing God Lord Vastsoul and the Crimson Elder. This was proof that he did not have a simple background.

“Tang Bai, don’t think that we won’t kill you!” God Lord Vastsoul went red at the ears as he bellowed.

For Tang Bai to try and recruit another God Lord right in front of their faces was nothing more than a brazen challenge.

But to his surprise, Zhao Feng didn’t immediately agree.

Yet another person…. Zhao Feng was rather troubled.

Neither Vermillion Bird Pavilion nor Swift Wind Gate had left a good impression on him. Besides that, he did not want to join any of these factions or Tang Bai’s team either way. If he got too close to outsiders, there was a greater chance that his identity as the Ninth God Eye would be exposed.

However, if he used the Ninth God Eye or the Ancestral Artifact fragment at a time like this, these two parties would certainly be able to draw the right conclusions. In addition, although Tang Bai was a peak First Heaven, his strength was not to be underestimated. Zhao Feng sensed that he might even be stronger than God Lord Vastsoul. The three of them working together would be even harder to deal with.

“If you join my team, I will not restrict you in any way. All you have to do is join me in a war. In addition, I can also provide you with a powerful secret art that conceals your God Lord energy and identity,” Tang Bai unhurriedly said.

Zhao Feng had been using a protective layer to conceal his appearance this entire time. This told Tang Bai that Zhao Feng did not want others to know his identity. Thus, he offered something that Zhao Feng had a dire need for.

“If it’s just one war, then I accept your invitation,” Zhao Feng said after a few moments of thought.

Tang Bai had left a much better impression on Zhao Feng than those other two factions, and Tang Bai apparently only had a small team on his side. In addition, Tang Bai had also promised that he would not restrict Zhao Feng’s movements.

Had not Zhao Feng gone off on this journey precisely to temper himself? The battlefield was an excellent place for precisely such a thing.

And with Tang Bai’s peak First Heaven cultivation, by following him into battle, he probably wouldn’t run into anything that was particularly dangerous.

Finally, Tang Bai could even provide him a secret that he dearly needed.

“Deal!” Tang Bai smiled and immediately flew forward.

“No! You…!” God Lord Vastsoul instantly panicked. He had only just sent word for reinforcements, so they probably wouldn’t come in time.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Tang Bai waved his white fan, sending a white wave of energy into the Law Domain around Zhao Feng. This Law Domain instantly began to weaken as if it had run into its direct counter.

Fwooosh!

At the same time, Zhao Feng’s Chaos Heaven Black Hole erupted with power, sending out distorting and devouring energy and destroying the Earth Law Domain.

“Just now… that was Sealing energy!” Zhao Feng looked at Tang Bai, even more confident in that secret art he had offered.

Thwish!

After escaping the restriction, Zhao Feng charged at God Lord Vastsoul and the Crimson Elder. These people wanted to kill him, so Zhao Feng would naturally not show any mercy.

You injured one of my members, so don’t blame me!” At this moment, Tang Bai smiled and charged at God Lord Vastsoul.

“Die!” Zhao Feng wildly swung his Chaos Origin Tribulation Lightning Sword, sending a dark bolt of lightning energy shooting forward.

“Seal!” Tang Bai stretched out a hand, unleashing a ring of strange white light that swept over the area. God Lord Vastsoul and the Crimson Elder immediately felt a part of their strength being sealed, and even their speed was affected.

“Kill!” Zhao Feng attacked the Crimson Elder, his Chaos Origin Tribulation Lightning Sword increasing in power. God Lord Vastsoul was a Second Heaven skilled in the Earth Law and in defensive techniques, making him a more difficult target. Thus, he attacked the Crimson Elder first.

“God Lord Vastsoul, save me!” The Crimson Elder immediately called out to God Lord Vastsoul for help.

Tang Bai’s Sealing energy meant that the Crimson Elder could only use around seventy percent of his strength.

At this moment, the energy of a Time Law enveloped the Crimson Elder. With part of his strength sealed, the Crimson Elder was less capable of resisting the Time Law.

“A Time Law? It seems like I’ve found someone rather good this time!” Tang Bai rejoiced. He had never before seen a First Heaven God Lord with a Time Law.

Of course, there was probably such an existence in the legendary Light Race.

Swoosh! Swish!

Several waves of Chaos Origin Tribulation Lightning energy slashed at the Crimson Elder’s body. These attacks not only absorbed his energy but were also difficult to heal from.

“Stop!” God Lord Vastsoul gathered Divine Power into a dark yellow dragon that howled forward.

“Just sit patiently over there!” Tang Bai waved his fan, sending cascades of white energy at the yellow dragon that constantly sealed its power.

Boom! Bang!

In the end, Tang Bai shattered the attack with a single palm.

On the other side, Zhao Feng stabbed through the Crimson Elder’s chest, allowing Chaos Origin Tribulation Lightning power to run rampant within the Crimson Elder’s body.

Whoosh!

The Crimson Elder’s body was swiftly burned to ash by the flames of the Burning Heaven Sea.

Boomboomboom!

A powerful ripple of energy came from the distance, and one could vaguely make out the shape of a warship on the horizon.

“It’s time to leave!” Tang Bai called out, and then he left with Zhao Feng.

Not long after the pair left, a warship wreathed in scarlet flames and exuding a tyrannical aura descended. A red-robed woman charged out from the prow of the ship. “God Lord Vastsoul, what happened?”

“Tang Bai joined together with another God Lord and killed the Crimson Elder!” God Lord Vastsoul clenched his fists in rage.

“Damn, this Tang Bai, if not for his master…. Let’s go back first!” The red-robed woman’s expression turned gloomy. Meanwhile, Zhao Feng followed Tang Bai to a place elsewhere in the Burning Heaven Sea.

Bzzzz!

A dark blue path formed, and the pair entered. Within the Divine Kingdom was a beautiful landscape, and one could see a boundless sea in the distance.

Upon scanning with his Divine Sense, Zhao Feng discovered that there were quite a few people in this Divine Kingdom, along with two God Lords and eight half-step God Lords!

“Relax. This isn’t our full force.” Tang Bai smiled.

He then gathered all the members within the Divine Kingdom in a large hall.

“A new member – God Lord Zhao Wang!” Tang Bai introduced to everyone.

Tang Bai proceeded to introduce everyone else to Zhao Feng.

The majority of these people did not belong to any factions, and one of the two God Lords was even from a zone neighboring the Tianhe Zone.

“Since you’ve agreed to join my team, I should tell you what our goal is.” Tang Bai’s expression calmed down.

“Normally, a dangerous forbidden ground like the Burning Heaven Sea would never be the gathering place of so many people. All this is because, one month ago, a God Lord of the Vermillion Bird Pavilion discovered signs of an Ancestral Artifact fragment in the Burning Heaven Sea!” a black-armored and burly man explained.

Ancestral Artifact fragment!? Zhao Feng couldn’t help but be stunned. He never would’ve expected the Burning Heaven Sea to be home to such a treasure.

Of course, the majority of forbidden grounds had precious plants that were extinct in the outside world or long-lost treasures. This was also why there was a constant stream of people who ventured into these dangerous places.

“Based on our intelligence reports, it should be a fragment of the Ancestral Artifact Blazing Hell,” Tang Bai added.
