Chapter 1218 – Gathering of Quasi-Gods
The location of the Gulong Martial Gathering was Stellar Tower’s Five Star Mountain. The peak of Five Star Mountain was formed from tough white crystal and gray stone. Even in the night, it exuded a faint glow. There were five mountains surrounding it in the shape of a pentagon, so it was christened Five Star Mountain.
Construction work had begun on Five Star Mountain several years ago. Many towers and pavilions had been built upon the five mountains, and an enormous fighting stage had been built on the mountain in the very center.
The Gulong Martial Gathering had not yet begun, but countless spectators had already gathered around Five Star Mountain.
“I hear that this martial gathering was organized by two prodigies belonging to five-star factions of the Gulong Zone, Quasi-Gods Zi Feng and Tian Xue!”
“They’re ranked fourth and seventh respectively on the Quasi-God Ranking. I wonder if any of the other twenty on the Quasi-God Ranking will show up.”
Around Five Star Mountain, many people were discussing what might happen during this martial gathering. Many people believed that the Gulong Martial Gathering was really just a prelude to the Quasi-God Ranking Competition.
Countless experts had gathered around Five Star Mountain. However, nobody knew that, deep under the mountain in the center of Five Star Mountain, one person was hiding.
“Damn it! Everything was going perfectly fine, so why did they decide to hold a martial gathering right on top of Five Star Mountain!?”
This man’s skin was black, but his eyes were shining bright. In front of him was a stone door. On the door was a complex sealing array.
The sealing array was in the shape of a pentagon. The power of the Five Elements spread out from each corner of the pentagon to protect this space.
“This place is definitely somewhere the Five Elements God Lord used to cultivate. It’s been four years now. I’m only a sliver away from breaking this seal!”
The black-skinned man was seated cross-legged in front of the door. A round disc was in his hands, shooting out streams of light that flowed into the Five Elements seal.
“The Five Elements God Lord was a wandering God Lord. When entering seclusion, he was fond of opening up a personal dimension and laying down a protective array over it.”
An excited look appeared on the man’s face. He was just inches away from breaking open the sealing array. There was a high chance that the Five Elements God Lord had left a treasure inside.
Unfortunately, the Gulong Martial Gathering was going to take place in a month on Five Star Mountain.
In addition, this array had a self-healing attribute. If he stopped the process, the array would slowly recover. This was a unique trait of Five Elements arrays.
For this reason, this black-skinned man prayed that the martial gathering would end early.
…
In the Exchange Spiritual Hall, Zhao Feng, Han Ning’er, and the two prodigies from the Sky Haze Race were strolling around.
“It really is on another level. I can see Rank Three True Gods wherever I look, and even a few Rank Four True Gods,” Zhao Feng muttered.
With his God’s Spiritual Eye, Zhao Feng had even noticed a few experts with especially powerful auras. They were highly likely to be True God experts above Rank Four.
Other than that, it was mostly Quasi-Gods around. After all, the main characters of this martial gathering were the Quasi-God experts.
“So many Quasi-Gods, and all of them are part of the younger generation!” Zhao Feng couldn’t help but think back to the Continent Zone, and a faint smile emerged on his face.
In the Continent Zone, the strongest cultivation level the younger generation had reached was that of Emperor. Very few of them had passed the Mystic Light Realm. But in the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods, only those who had obtained the glorious level of Quasi-God could be called geniuses.
“Isn’t this Quasi-God Jian Feng?” At this moment, a sharp voice rang out in everyone’s ears.
Zhao Feng glanced over and saw the two Quasi-God prodigies of the Nether Ghost Race. The speaker was precisely Quasi-God Mo Gui.
“Quasi-God Jian Feng of the Sky Haze Race?”
The surrounding crowd immediately began to stare at Quasi-God Jian Feng. There had always been a rumor in the outside world that Quasi-God Jian Feng of the Sky Haze Race had comprehended Level Two Wind Intent and had a high chance of entering the top twenty of the Quasi-God Ranking.
“Even you came to see the show, so why can’t I?” Quasi-God Jian Feng’s counter was sharp and brutal.
Quasi-God Mo Gui was left speechless. In terms of backing, the Sky Haze Race was stronger than the Nether Ghost Race. In terms of personal strength, he was truly no match for Quasi-God Jian Feng.
“Hmph, I’m surprised that a brat like you showed up here, but I bet that you won’t dare to step onto the stage during the martial gathering!” Mo Gui couldn’t do anything to Jian Feng, so he used Zhao Feng to vent his anger.
At the same, he wanted to provoke Zhao Feng into fighting in the martial gathering. If Zhao Feng stepped onto the stage, Quasi-God Mo Gui would be the first to charge up and humiliate him.
“You don’t need to worry about that!” Zhao Feng coldly replied.
“Haha, Quasi-God Mo Gui, I’m just worried that when Brother Zhao goes on stage, you will be the one who won’t dare!” Quasi-God Jian Feng said with a laugh.
Quasi-God Mo Gui was even weaker than Hou Qing. Zhao Feng would be able to easily dispose of him.
“Okay! When the time comes, let me see just which one of us won’t dare to go on!” Mo Gui gave a cold and sinister smile.
After saying this, Quasi-God Mo Gui left with the other Nether Ghost Race Quasi-God.
“Brother Zhao, when the time comes, you need to give him a good beating!” Jian Feng smiled.
He had long ago tired of the sight of Quasi-God Mo Gui. Despite his little strength, this Nether Ghost Race Quasi-God constantly bragged and boasted wherever he went.
“Let’s go and try out the delicacies of Sea Pearl Tower,” Quasi-God Jian Feng suggested.
“I hear that Sea Pearl Tower of Stellar Tower’s Exchange Spiritual Hall only cooks seafood, and that the taste is incredible!” the girl from the Sky Haze Race excitedly said.
“Okay, let’s try it out.” Zhao Feng nodded.
Zhao Feng had been busy rushing about ever since he left Sky Feather Island, so it was about time for him to relax a little.
Sea Pearl Tower was about the same as Saint Pearl Tower in Sky Feather Island’s Exchange Spiritual Hall, but Sea Pearl Tower appeared even more impressive. Moreover, it specialized in seafood, and its delicacies had their own unique flavor.
It just so happened that, as Zhao Feng’s group arrived, another group of guests just finished.
“Zhao Feng, your luck is pretty good. Quasi-God Tian Xue is also here.” After seating himself, Quasi-God Jian Feng whispered.
“It’s her? She’s one of the organizers of the Gulong Martial Gathering?” Zhao Feng’s gaze rested upon the very center of the restaurant.
A white-clothed girl was seated at this table. Her skin was white and tender, and her eyes were like clear and sparkling crystals. She appeared like a lofty and noble fairy.
Alas, she wore a veil over her face, preventing anyone from seeing her entire face. Only when she lifted her veil to eat were people able to see her alluring cherry-red lips.
“That’s right. Quasi-God Tian Xue is a genius of one of the three five-star factions of the Gulong Zone. She’s ranked seventh on the Quasi-God Ranking, and she has countless followers in the Gulong Zone. It’s because of her that so many people have come to this Gulong Martial Gathering.” Quasi-God Jian Feng chattered on.
“Quasi-God Jian Feng is also interested in her?” Zhao Feng suddenly said with a smile.
“Who doesn’t love a beauty?” Quasi-God Jian Feng unreservedly admitted.
Zhao Feng nodded. It was impossible to see the entirety of Quasi-God Tian Xue’s face, but one could imagine that she was a woman of incredible beauty. Considering her talent and backing, it was impossible for the younger generation of the Gulong Zone to not adore her.
Bzzzz!
Zhao Feng activated his left eye. In an instant, Zhao Feng pierced through the veil over Quasi-God Tian Xue’s face.
A gorgeous visage was reflected in Zhao Feng’s eyes.
Not as good as her! Zhao Feng slightly shook his head.
Quasi-God Tian Xue’s white clothes and veil made Zhao Feng recall Liu Qinxin. Zhao Feng still keenly remembered the breathtaking sight that greeted him when the little thieving cat took away Liu Qinxin’s veil.
Although Quasi-God Tian Xue also had enough beauty to captivate birds and beasts, she was still no match for Liu Qinxin!
“Mm?” Quasi-God Tian Xue’s eyes suddenly fell upon Zhao Feng.
All the men around her were looking at her in adoration. Only this golden-haired man had given a slight shake of his head when seeing her and appeared rather absent-minded.
This greatly displeased Quasi-God Tian Xue. Although she was not the strongest woman on the Quasi-God Ranking, she was certainly the most beautiful. Coupled with her strength and backing, how could there be a man in the Gulong Zone that was not interested in her?
And yet this golden-haired man had shaken his head!
“Quasi-God Tian Xue, what’s wrong?”
The men around her had their eyes fixed upon Quasi-God Tian Xue. For this reason, they could see the slightest shift in her expression. Just now, Quasi-God Tian Xue’s brows had slightly creased as if she was very unhappy.
“Boy, you’ve made Quasi-God Tian Xue unhappy!” A handsome and elegant man in black followed Quasi-God Tian Xue’s gaze and saw Zhao Feng, and a cold rebuke immediately left his mouth.
“So it was that brat!” The other men gradually began to notice Zhao Feng, and hostility appeared in their eyes.
At the same time, they felt some regret. They had lost such an excellent chance to show off in front of Quasi-God Tian Xue to the man in black.
Zhao Feng said nothing. He never imagined that a shake of his head would cause such a stir.
But this was the Exchange Spiritual Hall. This person could not attack him, so Zhao Feng didn’t feel like explaining.
“Just who has made Quasi-God Tian Xue unhappy?”
Several people came down from the second floor. The one who asked this question was a white-clothed youth with a smile on his proud face.
The white-clothed youth followed the eyes of the crowd and quickly found Zhao Feng.
“Quasi-God Jian Feng, is this also considered luck?” Zhao Feng helplessly smiled.
Quasi-God Jian Feng’s eyes froze, and then he gave an embarrassed laugh.
…because this white-clothed youth was Hou Qing of the Sky Water Yao Race.
“It’s you!” Hou Qing’s eyes turned gloomy, and his entire body began to shake in rage.
Back then, Zhao Feng had not only defeated him in front of so many people, but he was even taken hostage. In the end, Zhao Feng was forced to flee into the Forest of Death.
To his surprise, the Death mist in the Forest of Death had suddenly dispersed. Perhaps it was exactly this that allowed Zhao Feng to survive.
“Hou Qing, what’s wrong?” an aloof man of bewitching beauty standing next to Hou Qing whispered.
“Quasi-God Lin Guang of the Sky Water Yao Race!”
Everyone instantly focused on the man standing next to Hou Qing.
Hou Qing truly was a genius of the Sky Water Yao Race, but the strongest genius of the Sky Water Yao Race was Quasi-God Lin Guang, ranked seventeenth on the Quasi-God Ranking.
“I didn’t think that Quasi-God Lin Guang would also come!” A desire to fight flickered through Quasi-God Jian Feng’s eyes.
Yet another one of the top twenty Quasi-Gods had appeared.
“He was the one from the Wild Ancient Secret Dimension…” Hou Qing naturally wouldn’t explain the matter out loud. Instead, he messaged Lin Guang.
“Hmph!” Upon receiving Hou Qing’s message, Quasi-God Lin Guang gave a cold snort, and the surrounding air instantly became cold and gloomy.
However, since this was an Exchange Spiritual Hall belonging to Stellar Tower and Quasi-God Tian Xue was also present, Quasi-God Lin Guang naturally did not attack.
“Haha, this brat has offended quite a lot of people!”
“Has he also come to participate in the Gulong Martial Gathering? After offending Quasi-God Lin Guang, he probably won’t even dare to step onto the fighting stage!”
The surrounding Quasi-Gods couldn’t help but gloat at Zhao Feng’s misfortune.
