Chapter 769 - 789: The Grand Elder’s Terrifying Strength
Chu Lin slightly furrowed his brows. The domain of this Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm powerhouse was indeed different from the Second Layer. It could integrate elements into it, possibly having Water Domain, Wood Domain, or Golden Domain and the like.
With a thought, he immediately spoke to Chu Qing inside the storage ring, "Qing’er, someone is going to attack your big brother. What should we do?"
Chu Linfeng thought Chu Qing was still asleep and asked tentatively, but surprisingly, as soon as he finished speaking, Chu Qing’s voice appeared, "Big brother, I knew about it long ago. I was just about to come out when you started talking. Don’t worry; I haven’t taken this kid seriously yet."
Chu Linfeng had deep experience with Chu Qing’s terrifying green light shield. Perhaps its defense power could even resist the attack of a Fifth Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm powerhouse, stronger than his own Star Body.
Actually, Chu Linfeng’s thinking was gravely mistaken. Although the Seventh Layer of Star Body now enhances defense power, there is still a risk of being injured. This is mainly due to the level of strength. If Chu Linfeng were at the Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm now, he could stand still without moving, and the opponent wouldn’t be able to harm him in the slightest.
This body cultivation technique of the Star Body is a terrifying method indeed, rarely mastered. Few can bear the pain it entails, as was evident when Chu Linfeng broke through the Seventh Layer.
The stronger the strength, the greater the defense power of the Star Body. These truths were not told by the Sword Spirit; they can only be slowly comprehended later.
"Qing’er, it’s really burdensome for you. I truly don’t know how to thank you!" Chu Linfeng said to Chu Qing.
"Hehe, big brother, why are you saying this to me? I am your little sister after all!" Chu Qing immediately replied, moving Chu Linfeng greatly.
"Father, this Grand Elder is so despicable to use the Fire Domain against Lin Feng. This is clearly bullying because he hasn’t broken through to the Venerable Martial Realm!" Princess Yiyi said angrily, seeing the fire in the sky.
"Yiyi, did you say he hadn’t broken through to the Venerable Martial Realm? How is that possible? A Saint Martial Realm individual compelling a Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm person to use their domain is unheard of! Are you mistaken?" Lord of Netherworld asked Princess Yiyi in shock.
While others are not sure, he understood clearly. Although the domain is powerful, it also comes at a considerable cost. It is considered a martial skill, albeit a unique one, and the more robust the domain, the more energy it consumes. Now, the Grand Elder should be aware of the young man’s prowess and has to exert full effort.
"How could I be mistaken? I’ve already told you he’s an extraordinary genius, but you didn’t believe me. He is currently at the Fourth Layer of the Saint Martial Realm. This is absolutely true, which is why I am so worried about him. But he told me he could endure, so I didn’t stop the Grand Elder. Otherwise, even if the Grand Elder is formidable, I’d stop him." Princess Yiyi explained truthfully.
Hearing Princess Yiyi’s words, the Lord of Netherworld almost lost his balance due to the shocking news. "Yiyi, are you serious? Fourth Layer of Saint Martial Realm? My god, who is this human boy exactly, managing to capture your attention? It seems our Ghost Race is bound for greatness. We must, by any means, keep him in our clan."
"Hehe, didn’t I say that you’d be satisfied after meeting him? Was I wrong? Who is your daughter after all? Just anyone can make an impression on me?" Princess Yiyi said happily, immensely gratified to gain her father’s approval, almost picturing her wedding with Chu Linfeng in her mind.
Looking at Chu Linfeng in the sky, Princess Yiyi remained worried, "Father, I am truly concerned that Lin Feng won’t withstand the Grand Elder’s strike. Can you find a way to save him? What if he gets slain?"
"I don’t think so; trust your father! He should also know those in the Venerable Martial Realm can wield domains, but since he agreed with you that he could endure, it shows he has such strength. Let’s watch for changes. If he’s genuinely at risk, I won’t sit idle." Lord of Netherworld assured.
With the Lord of Netherworld’s reassurance, Princess Yiyi felt relieved, "Thank you, father! I thank you on behalf of Lin Feng!"
"Hehe, it’s true that daughters are to be married off. You’re already speaking on his behalf before marriage." The Lord of Netherworld laughed.
Everyone was watching Chu Linfeng’s every move against the Grand Elder, finding it indescribable with mere words.
At that moment, the Grand Elder’s face revealed a dense killing intent, "Kid, how does this domain taste? Today, I’ll make you understand the taste of death!"
Chu Linfeng, although unable to move, could frantically circulate the Chaotic Dragon Power within. By using Star Slash and the Qilin Arm with his current realm, he was confident he could slay this old man. However, doing so might provoke fierce resistance from the Ghost Race below.
Even if Lord of Netherworld wanted to protect him, it would be difficult due to the dissatisfaction caused for siding with a human. Therefore, he was prepared to directly use Star Slash, hiding the Qilin Arm as his trump card to see whether the attack power after the Fourth Layer of the Saint Martial Realm could surpass when using Star Slash with the Second Layer and Qilin Arm previously.
At this moment, flames surged from the Grand Elder’s long sword, casting a brilliant burst of fire that instantly transformed into an illusory fire dragon. The fire dragon let out a long howl, its draconic roar resounding through the heavens and earth, quickly attacking Chu Linfeng.
When the fire dragon was only two meters away from Chu Linfeng, his body became movable. He merely smiled lightly at the illusory fire dragon, knowing that showcasing the Golden Dragon Body would stop the fire dragon instantly. Although just an illusory fire dragon, there is a division in levels.
The fact that this strike could be launched indicated the Grand Elder surely had some connection with the fire dragon. Some martial skills in this world are potent because they borrow external force, and the fire dragon’s phantom used Ancient Dragon God’s energy.
Of course, there is also the Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, Qilin, Golden-Winged Roc, etc., but few comprehend the essence. Chu Lin delayed no longer, promptly drawing the Cyan Frost Sword from his storage ring.
And at this moment, Chu Qing also activated the green light shield, protecting Chu Linfeng. Instantly, the fire dragon’s phantom struck against the green light shield, and Chu Linfeng only felt a slight vibration in front of him.
However, the martial skill performed by this Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm practitioner was not as simple as imagined. Although the fire dragon was blocked, it instantly transformed into countless flames, encircling and burning Chu Linfeng. At this time, the Grand Elder launched a second attack... (Please vote)
