Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

The destructive power of this Power of Thunder and Lightning surprised Chu Linfeng, as half of the mountain was shattered to pieces. The ground where he stood was shaking violently. If it weren’t for Chu Linfeng’s strong power, he might not have been able to stand steady.

"Damn it! It’s so powerful. This Thunder Transformation attack is comparable to Celestial Slash, and this is when I’m completely unskilled. If I were skilled, imagine how terrifying the attack power would be," Chu Linfeng muttered to himself.

With such a movement, Chu Linfeng naturally wouldn’t linger here. He quickly used Instant Teleportation to leave, not rushing back to Jiuyou City but stopping by a riverside.

Comprehending the Space Domain and resonating with the Thunder Element are his most urgent and desired goals. He doesn’t understand why he can’t form a Space Domain and doesn’t want to ask Sword Spirit for fear of being mocked.

In front of him was a majestic and vast river. The water was very turbulent. Chu Linfeng found a clean stone to sit by the riverbank and began to meditate, slowly extending his Divine Sense in an attempt to communicate with the Thunder Element in the air.

The Thunder Element is originally the most violent elemental molecule, and as soon as Chu Linfeng’s Divine Sense approached, it met with rejection, or suddenly disappeared, resulting in him gaining nothing for a long time.

However, he did not lose heart. The harder it is to resonate with an element, the stronger it is. Imagine if he could achieve resonance, and in a standoff with the opponent, a sudden strike of Power of Thunder and Lightning would be exhilarating. The strong attack power and the paralysis effect of the Power of Thunder and Lightning are most needed.

With this idea, Chu Linfeng immersed himself completely in communicating with the Thunder Element. Time slipped away, and since there is no day or night distinction in the Netherworld, Chu Linfeng didn’t know how much time had passed. Finally, the Thunder Element stopped rejecting him and reached a consensus with his Divine Sense.

"Success!" This was the only thought in Chu Linfeng’s mind. But he didn’t rush to control these Thunder Elements, instead slowly exchanging with them as if they could converse, gathering more and more Thunder Elements together.

Seeing the gathered Thunder Elements, Chu Linfeng’s thought triggered them, and the Thunder Element instantly turned into a bolt of lightning, several times larger than the lightning executed by his Thunder Transformation. The lightning struck directly on the river surface, causing the water to splash everywhere instantly.

A vacuum appeared directly within tens of meters, high waves surged to the surroundings, submerging quite a bit of the riverbank. The fish and shrimp in the river were numerous in death and injury, spreading thickly across the river surface, while that span of water quickly returned, rather bizarrely.

"Such great power, it’s really terrifying. This is just the effect of gathering a bit of Thunder Element. If fighting a master, using words to stall the opponent and continuously gathering Thunder Element, imagine the consequences when it strikes their body. Even a Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm expert couldn’t withstand such an attack; it’s simply the best method for a sneak attack," Chu Linfeng laughed.

"Lin Feng, your ability to comprehend such skills is indeed surprising. This counts as a special skill, much higher than the Space Domain by an unknown factor. I am very pleased with your achievement. What are your plans next?" Sword Spirit asked at this moment.

"I plan to return to Jiuyou City to see Ruoxi and Yiyi, and then discuss with the Lord of Netherworld about dealing with other races. The Beast King should definitely be the primary target, and I need to call Xiao Qiang that old fellow, too. Didn’t see him at the wedding; wonder where he’s gone," Chu Linfeng said.

"Starting a racial war isn’t a trivial matter. Though you’ve learned Wind and Thunder Transformation, your realm is too low. I think matters should be cautiously approached. What do you think?" Sword Spirit said.

"We can’t delay. Just thinking about the Beast Race Prince’s expression makes me fume. He dared to hurt Ruoxi. Frankly, I want to head to the Beast Race right now, but I know that’s unwise without discussing with the Lord of Netherworld first. You should understand my feelings," Chu Linfeng said.

"Up to you, although you can’t defeat the Beast King now, there shouldn’t be much problem in keeping yourself safe, especially with your speed. I believe in the Netherworld no one can compare to you, and this is your greatest advantage," Sword Spirit said.

"I know that. This time, I’ll make the Beast Race pay the price and check on Ouyang Hong’s situation, too. I’m heading back to Jiuyou City now," Chu Linfeng said, and then directly used the Instant Teleportation. Having learned Wind Transformation, his teleportation speed is now indescribably fast, reaching the City Lord’s Mansion in just a few breaths.

Chu Linfeng’s appearance shocked the people in the City Lord’s Mansion. Everyone knew the Commandery Prince Consort was in seclusion, yet his unexpected presence here puzzled them. Had the rumor of seclusion been false, and he had gone out for some purpose?

Quite a few people inside the mansion retreated far upon seeing Chu Linfeng. No one wanted to approach and ask Chu Linfeng anything, knowing his power realm wasn’t high, yet his attack power was deadly strong, even the Grand Elder wasn’t his match.

Chu Linfeng didn’t linger much and went straight to the main hall, where the Lord of Netherworld was leisurely meditating on a chair, surprised when he saw Chu Linfeng, but quickly said, "Lin Feng, you’ve emerged from seclusion? Why didn’t you notify us beforehand? I could have prepared a feast for you."

"Father-in-law, that’s too kind. We’re family, no need for such formality. So, during my seclusion, has anything special happened in the Netherworld?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"No big matters, but plenty of small ones, although none are significant. However, there is a rumor that is extremely unfavorable to you, and this you need to pay attention to. Although I’ve suppressed it, you’ve still attracted a lot of attention." The Lord of Netherworld said.

"What is the rumor? How could it possibly relate to me?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"This rumor originates from the Ghost Race, saying that Wangtu City was destroyed by you, and to evade the Ghost Race’s pursuit, you came to Jiuyou City and subsequently became my son-in-law. In truth, I’m also curious whether this story is true or not." The Lord of Netherworld said, looking at Chu Linfeng.

"Father-in-law, do you think it’s true or not? If it’s true, how do you plan to handle it?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"Lin Feng, we are a family now. Even if you really were the mysterious person who destroyed Wangtu City, I wouldn’t hold the slightest displeasure against you. You are now a part of the Ghost Race; if the Ghost King dares to do anything to you, I certainly won’t sit idly by. By the way, what have you gained from your recent retreat?" The Lord of Netherworld asked.

Chu Linfeng glanced at the Lord of Netherworld and said, "Father-in-law, I indeed am the one who destroyed Wangtu City. Thank you for supporting me like this. Rest assured, as long as I’m with the Ghost Race, I will definitely make us the strongest race in the Netherworld. This retreat has been fruitful, and facing the Beast King shouldn’t pose much difficulty."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Netherworld was shocked. Although he had already determined that Chu Linfeng was indeed the one who destroyed Wangtu City, hearing it directly from him still felt exceptional. However, Chu Linfeng’s statement left him confused, "You’re saying you’ll leave the Ghost Race? Do you plan to return to the Human Race?"

"Father-in-law is overthinking. I was just speculating. Even if I do leave, I won’t return to the Human Race. I will only leave after making the Ghost Race the top race. But for now, I would like to hear about your plans." Chu Linfeng said.

The Lord of Netherworld remained silent, pondering for a moment before saying, "Currently, the Five Great Races are relatively stable; no one wishes to attack another prematurely, lest the other three races become the beneficiaries. Everyone is watching. I’d like to hear your thoughts."

"Our Ghost Race is now entirely capable of standing alone. Although I may not possess Father-in-law’s strength, I believe that besides the strongest from each of the Five Great Races, there should be no one who can rival me. In other words, we now have two mighty figures in the Ghost Race. Father-in-law should understand my meaning." Chu Linfeng stated seriously.

The Lord of Netherworld was well aware of Chu Linfeng’s prowess. Being able to take a strike from the Netherworld Lord unscathed and defeat the Grand Elder of the Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm in one move indeed marked him as a formidable force. With him in the Ghost Race, it was certainly a boon.

"What do you intend to do? If it’s reasonable, I will certainly support you! I trust you, and ever since obtaining your Illusory Immortal Grass, my strength has also improved. In fact, I also aspire to achieve something great." The Lord of Netherworld said.

"Alright, since Father-in-law speaks this way, I will be forthright. I want to first deal with the Beast Race. Although they have the most numbers, their strength is the weakest among the races, with many being simple-minded. As long as we can defeat the Beast King, I believe that seizing control of Beast Race is within reach." Chu Linfeng said.

"Attack the Beast Race? Although the Beast King is usually arrogant, his relations with the leaders of the other races are decent. Only the Ghost King from the Ghost Race has the worst relations. If we are to take action, why not target the Ghost Race?" The Lord of Netherworld said.

"Father-in-law, do not doubt our capabilities. I have a friend who is at the Third Layer of Venerable Martial Realm, but I think he’s likely advanced to the Fourth Layer by now. With the three of us leading, I believe the Beast Race cannot withstand us. After defeating them and occupying their territory, our Ghost Race’s strength will grow even further." Chu Linfeng said.

"That’s reasonable, but have you considered the consequences? If we truly annihilate the Beast Race, the other three races will undoubtedly form an alliance, and the aftermath of them jointly targeting our Ghost Race would be unimaginable." The Lord of Netherworld replied, weighing the situation with more seasoned judgment than Chu Linfeng.

"I’m certain they won’t do that. If they had such intentions, they’d have allied already. The relationships amongst each race’s leaders are merely superficial. Suppose Xiang Shaolong from the Human Race proposed an alliance with you against the Ghost Race; how would you respond?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"I certainly wouldn’t agree. Our Ghost Race is no weakling that requires an alliance with other races. That would be belittling us." The Lord of Netherworld responded.

"Exactly, thinking this way, other races would too. If we defeat the Beast Race, the other three won’t make much of a move. Of course, if we attempt to take down another race thereafter, alliances might form, as unity is crucial in adversity. Father-in-law, trust me; let’s first defeat the Beast Race. I am confident!" Chu Linfeng said.

"Rest for now; you’ve been in retreat for quite some time. Yiyi misses you a lot. Let me contemplate this matter and give you a response in a couple of days." The Lord of Netherworld said.

Chu Linfeng nodded, said no more, and turned to leave the grand hall... (If you have questions, join the group to ask, especially regarding updates.)
