Chapter 794 - 815: The Ghost Race’s Action
Chu Linfeng heard Princess Yiyi’s irate voice and simply smiled. He then instantly teleported to a secluded place and sat down. Now, he was somewhat excited and anticipative about going to wipe out the Beast Race.
Breaking through to the Fifth Layer of Saint Martial Realm had increased his confidence. Among the five great powerhouses in Netherworld, apart from the Lord of Netherworld who wouldn’t do anything to him, the other four must submit to his martial skill. After helping the Lord of Netherworld unify Netherworld, he would enter that perilous place to obtain the Netherworld Purple Orchid and return to Canglan Ancient Land.
By then, his strength would have reached a new breakthrough. Perhaps he wouldn’t fear alone the Lonely Demon Venerable anymore, given the latter was merely a soul body, considerably weaker than a physical entity in attack power.
After realizing all this, Chu Linfeng smiled faintly, recalling Lin Ruoxi’s situation. Her first Nirvana required the Parasol Divine Wood. However, he had never heard of the Parasol Divine Wood, and it was absent in Qingshuang’s memory as well. It seemed he could only ask Sword Spirit.
"Sister Yue’Er, do you know where to find the Parasol Divine Wood? Is there such a thing in Netherworld?" Chu Linfeng asked.
"It seems that you are quite concerned about Ruoxi’s situation. The Parasol Divine Wood is not a product of your world; it exists only in the Immortal Realm. To obtain the Parasol Divine Wood, you can only wait until you reach the Immortal Realm. It is a treasure of the Phoenix Race, and obtaining it is very difficult.
However, Ruoxi might find it easier than you because she has the Vermilion Bird Bloodline, which is a branch of the Phoenix Race. The Parasol Divine Wood is merely the parasol tree where the Phoenix rests during Nirvana. After Phoenix Nirvana, the parasol tree absorbs a certain amount of fire element, which is different from other fire elements. This is Nirvana Fire, capable of reviving the dead. Let’s discuss this matter later, you should restore yourself to the best condition." Sword Spirit said.
Chu Linfeng, although shocked by Sword Spirit’s words, did not find it unusual considering the incidents happening to him. He therefore took out a top-grade Star Stone to absorb, killing time while waiting for the next day.
Early the next day, Chu Linfeng returned. Having trained overnight, he felt even more refreshed. The Lord of Netherworld was already waiting for him in his room. Upon seeing him enter, he immediately said, "Lin Feng, you and your friends go first, and I’ll follow soon. Remember to lure out the Beast King."
"Father-in-law, rest assured, I definitely can accomplish this. At that time, please go all out!" Chu Linfeng said.
"Absolutely. You must also be cautious. The domain of the Fifth Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm is extremely terrifying. Be sure not to confront it head-on or it will be very dangerous." The Lord of Netherworld said.
Coincidentally, at that moment, the Ghost King was also in the City Lord’s Mansion of Black Spirit City, discussing matters with important figures of the Ghost Race. "Everyone, this time I decided to personally visit Jiuyou City. Numerous pieces of evidence show that the Lord of Netherworld’s son-in-law is the main culprit for the destruction of my Wangtu City. The tens of thousands of Ghost Race members in my Wangtu City cannot die in vain. This vendetta must be avenged, otherwise, how can I Ghost King claim to be the leader of the Ghost Race.
This time, it’s certain that unpleasant things will occur with the Lord of Netherworld. For safety’s sake, I decide to go with three elders and two protectors to Jiuyou City. I don’t believe the Lord of Netherworld dares to harbor that kid. If he really does, I won’t mind a bloodbath in Jiuyou City." The Ghost King said to everyone.
"I’ve long wanted to eliminate that kid. Now that the Ghost King has made this decision, we naturally fully agree. If the Lord of Netherworld doesn’t appreciate the situation, then a war with him is inevitable. I believe he is a wise man who knows the stakes involved, and wouldn’t start a conflict with our Ghost Race over a humble human race member. This matter, I believe, has virtually no suspense." A black-robed elder said.
"Agreed, the Grand Elder’s words are very true. We shall go to Jiuyou City to force the Lord of Netherworld to hand over the kid, otherwise, we will annihilate his Ghost Race. We are justified; other races shouldn’t interfere in this matter." Another black-robed elder said.
After looking at everyone, the Ghost King said, "If it’s not absolutely necessary, we should avoid going to war with the Ghost Race; this is a situation that would benefit others. Nonetheless, our Ghost Race’s dignity cannot be lost; we’ll discuss that later. It’s no small matter, let’s set out now!"
Subsequently, the Ghost King, along with six others, directly flew quickly toward Jiuyou City, while the Lord of Netherworld and Chu Linfeng had no idea about this matter. At this moment, Chu Linfeng and Xiao Qiang were hurrying toward the Beast King’s domain.
"Qingshuang, didn’t you say the Lord of Netherworld would handle the Beast Race with us? Why haven’t we seen him? Did he intentionally send us to our deaths, or did he not plan to deal with the Beast Race?" Xiao Qiang asked along the way.
"Don’t be suspicious, the Lord of Netherworld is the leader of a tribe; naturally, he has his considerations. Once we draw out the Beast King, he will naturally appear. You just focus on slaughtering those Nether Beasts without overthinking. However, keep your life safe, otherwise, don’t say I didn’t take you back to Canglan Ancient Land." Chu Linfeng laughed.
"You brat, it would be good enough if you didn’t let me protect you. How dare you worry about me? What a joke!" Xiao Qiang said indifferently.
Both were flying extremely fast; after Chu Linfeng grasped the Wind Element, his flying speed compared to before was as different as night and day, now almost as fast as Xiao Qiang, who was at the Fourth Level of Venerable Martial Realm. Indeed, it was remarkable. Xiao Qiang was also slightly amazed internally; this Qingshuang’s speed was shockingly fast, truly heaven-defying. However, he didn’t know that Chu Linfeng could still use instant teleportation; if Chu Linfeng used instant teleportation, Xiao Qiang might wonder if he’d fall out of the sky due to excessive shock.
The Beast Race’s Royal City was distant from Jiuyou City, but with the flying speed of the two, it only took half a day. They could already see the tall city walls from mid-air.
"Qingshuang, how do you plan to lure out the Beast King? Now you risk exposing your identity, and if you fail, you might become hunted worldwide. Meanwhile, I can change my appearance by absorbing Nether Stones a few times. You ought to think carefully." Xiao Qiang said.
Chu Linfeng smiled, "Don’t worry. Can you even recognize me in this guise?" Upon finishing his words, Chu Linfeng was immediately enveloped in intense ghost qi, transforming into the appearance of the Ghost Race, leaving Xiao Qiang utterly stunned.
"You, you can actually turn into this appearance. How did you do it?" Xiao Qiang asked.
"I’ll explain later. Right now, let’s head to the city gate. If we cause a stir here and alarm those inside, hopefully, we can draw out that Second Prince. Then, I can directly avenge Ruoxi." Chu Linfeng said...
