Divine-level Base

"Shu Feng of Shuijing High School!! Interesting. I heard you defeated Mu Tianlong, the top student of Azure Dragon High School! If I defeat you, wouldn’t that mean I’m even stronger than Mu Tianlong?"

"Shu Feng, do you dare to fight me? The loser gives all their points to the winner!"

A burning fighting spirit flashed in Zhao Qingqing’s beautiful eyes. She pointed her long sword at Shu Feng and spoke in a cold voice. Although she was ranked as Xuanwei High School’s second-best student, she had always been proud and arrogant, believing herself to be no less skilled than their top student, Jiang Chao.

Shu Feng said, "Fine!"

The moment the word left Shu Feng’s lips, the long sword in Zhao Qingqing’s hand seemed to come alive. She executed the Great Demon Suppression Sword Technique, thrusting toward Shu Feng’s heart.

CLANG!

Shu Feng swung his sword, striking Zhao Qingqing’s long sword and creating a terrifyingly loud sound of metal clashing.

The long sword in Zhao Qingqing’s hand shattered instantly. She was sent flying back more than ten meters like a broken doll, spitting out a mouthful of blood. A look of disbelief flickered in her beautiful eyes. ’How is this possible? How could I not even block a single one of his strikes?’

After Shu Feng had advanced to Great Spirit Master, his Spiritual Power had completely liquefied, and his physical Constitution had skyrocketed, causing his strength to surge as well. Apart from his Spiritual Power quality and Spiritual Sense being inferior to a Spirit Sect’s, he had practically surpassed many Loose Cultivator Spirit Sects in all other aspects.

The fact that Mu Tianlong was able to fight Shu Feng to a standstill in a short period of time just showed how incredibly strong he was.

Although Zhao Qingqing was also Xuanwei High School’s second-best, with strength far exceeding that of ordinary prodigies and a cultivation at Level 8 Great Spirit Master, she was simply not a powerhouse on the same level as Shu Feng and Mu Tianlong.

Shu Feng pointed his sword at Zhao Qingqing and said, "Zhao Qingqing, you’ve lost!"

"Hmph, I did indeed lose! The points are yours!"

Zhao Qingqing snorted coldly. With a thought, the points above her head quickly reset to zero, while the points above Shu Feng’s head began to skyrocket.

Shu Feng pointed his long sword toward the prodigies from Xuanwei High School and said, "You lot, hand over your points!"

"Xuanwei High School never surrenders!"

The four prodigies from Xuanwei High School let out a sharp cry. Holding their long swords, they formed a Four Symbols Sword Array and attacked Shu Feng in unison.

Among the three great high schools, the vast majority of Xuanwei High School’s prodigies joined the military after graduation to fight on the front lines of the Void Demon Battlefield, slaughtering Void Demons. Of the three Extraordinary High Schools, the prodigies of Xuanwei were known for being the most resolute.

A cold glint flashed in Zhao Qingqing’s beautiful eyes. Gritting her silver teeth, layers of cold energy materialized around her palms as she executed the Cold Ice Palm Technique, striking toward Shu Feng. ʻ

"Xuanwei High School is truly remarkable! Out of respect, I’ll let you witness my strongest swordsmanship!"

Shu Feng praised them, then swung his long sword down. Sunlight flared, like a great sun appearing in the sky to suppress all things, as he slashed toward the four Xuanwei High School prodigies and Zhao Qingqing.

BOOM!!

With a terrifyingly loud bang, the four prodigies from Xuanwei High School and Zhao Qingqing all disintegrated under Shu Feng’s strike, turning into wisps of smoke and vanishing.

In the block where Xuanwei High School was located, Zhao Qingqing’s eyes snapped open. A trace of horror flashed through her beautiful eyes. ’What a powerful strike!! The fact that Mu Tianlong could fight that monster to a standstill is truly terrifying.’

Lie Nan Kong slowly commented, "The Sun and Moon Divine Sword is as formidable as they say! But the most formidable one is Shu Feng. It seems that kid has cultivated the Sun and Moon Scripture, otherwise the Sun and Moon Divine Sword wouldn’t be so powerful."

A strange light flashed in the eyes of Xuanwei High School’s principal, Jiang Shenghu, as he remarked in admiration, "The Sun and Moon Scripture!! It’s truly incredible that he’s able to cultivate this martial art!"

The Sun and Moon Scripture was one of the most powerful Divine Skill Secret Techniques in the Black Tortoise Realm. To cultivate this Spiritual Martial Art, one had to possess a rare and powerful constitution, such as the Sun and Moon Treasure Body, Sun and Moon Spirit Body, Sun and Moon Sacred Body, Yin-Yang Spirit Body, Yin-Yang Treasure Body, or Yin-Yang Sacred Body.

In the entire Qianyuan Republic, there were fewer than five people who cultivated the Sun and Moon Scripture. Even if others possessed the secret manual, they would find it difficult to even reach the Entry Level.

After rescuing Shen Xuan and his group, Shu Feng led them toward the Void Demon Nest.

Along the way, the Spirit Master Level Void Demons were all taken care of by Shen Xuan and the other prodigies from Shuijing High School.

"Careful!!"

While passing through a forest, Shu Feng’s brow twitched slightly and he let out a low shout.

Just then, the nearby bushes rustled. Six wolf-headed Werewolf Demons suddenly shot out, their claws striking like lightning toward Shu Feng’s group of five.

Caught completely off guard, the other three prodigies from Shuijing High School had their hearts pierced in a single exchange. They turned into wisps of smoke and vanished.

Shen Xuan executed the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique, his body wreathed in the light of his sword, resembling flowing clouds as he barely managed to block one of the Werewolf Demons.

The remaining two Werewolf Demons, however, lunged straight for Shu Feng.

Shu Feng’s brow twitched slightly. The light of his long sword flashed, and in an instant, it swept toward the two Werewolf Demons.

The heads of the two Great Spirit Master Level Werewolf Demons dropped to the ground.

The other three Werewolf Demons suddenly pounced on Shu Feng, swiping their claws toward his three vital points: his Dantian, heart, and head.

"Too slow!"

Shu Feng smiled faintly. His long sword moved unpredictably, instantly creating three points of light that swept toward the three Werewolf Demons.

The three Werewolf Demons had just gotten close to Shu Feng when their heads rolled to the ground with a soft THUD, leaving behind three headless corpses.

After slaying the five Great Spirit Master Level Werewolf Demons, Shu Feng stood quietly to the side.

After a bitter struggle of several hundred moves against the last Werewolf Demon, Shen Xuan finally killed the Level 1 Great Spirit Master Werewolf Demon with a single sword strike.

The physical constitutions of the Void Demon Clan’s powerhouses were generally far superior to those of the Human Race. It was already an outstanding feat for Shen Xuan to be able to slay a Level 1 Great Spirit Master Level Werewolf Demon.

Many Loose Cultivator Spiritualists at the Great Spirit Master Level would not necessarily be a match for a Level 1 Great Spirit Master Werewolf Demon in a one-on-one fight.

Shen Xuan said frankly, "Shu Feng, this is my limit. If I continue on, I’ll just be a burden to you, so I won’t go with you."

Further ahead, they would be besieged by Level 2 Great Spirit Master Level Werewolf Demons. Further still, there would be Level 3 Great Spirit Master Level Void Demons, and so on. In the deepest part of the nest, there were even Level 9 Werewolf Demons.

If those dozen or so Level 9 Werewolf Demons attacked together, even an expert at the Early-Stage Spirit Sect Realm might not be their match.

The National High School Spiritual Martial Arts Competition was held once a year, but geniuses who could fight their way into the deepest part of the nest were exceedingly rare, with one not necessarily appearing even once in a decade.

"Alright!"

Shu Feng smiled faintly and walked alone toward the deepest part of the Void Demon Nest.

Flashes of sword light shone, and one after another, Great Spirit Master Level Void Demons—Ghost-devouring Demons, Werewolf Demons, Parasitic Spider Demons, Giant Demons, and more—fell beneath Shu Feng’s sword.

One day later, a sword light flashed. The head of a three-meter-tall Werewolf Demon flew high into the air before falling to the earth, and Shu Feng stepped into the deepest part of the Void Demon Nest.
