Chapter 1256 – The First Battle
“Who’s he?”
At first glance, many people didn’t recognize Zhao Feng. His hair and eye of dream-like silver were far too dazzling and enchanting, making it seem like Zhao Feng’s entire nature had undergone a massive transformation.
Quite a few female disciples felt their hearts thump upon seeing Zhao Feng and were almost immediately enraptured by his appearance.
“What beautiful hair!” an enchanted female disciple softly said.
“Brother Feng’s eye and hair…!” In the distance, Zhao Yufei had a look of surprise while a look of tender affection appeared in her eyes.
She knew that, each time Zhao Feng’s God Eye transformed, his hair’s color would also change. This time, she sensed that Zhao Feng’s God Eye had undergone a massive transformation. As Zhao Feng stood there with a relaxed expression, exuding boundless confidence and indifference, her worried and anxious heart inexplicably calmed down.
“Yufei, what’s happened to him?” Kong Die nudged Zhao Yufei’s shoulder and murmured in shock. Before, she believed that Zhao Feng wasn’t a good match for Zhao Yufei, but at this moment, she impulsively wanted to try to compete with Zhao Yufei for Zhao Feng.
“This kid…! While breaking through to become a True God, he even had the time to dye his hair!?”
The majority of the young men in the crowd stared enviously at Zhao Feng.
In the sky, the transcendent figures of the Spiritual Race Ancient Gods were carefully examining Zhao Feng, their eyes glimmering.
“His hair is very special. Each strand seems to have a life of its own, and they reflect light according to the surrounding environment….”
“Just what happened while he was breaking through into the Heavenly Divine Realm?”
The Spiritual Race Ancient Gods also couldn’t help but be curious.
“Hold on, the energy from his body…!” As Ancient God Floating Spirit examined Zhao Feng, his expression twisted in disbelief.
Zhao Feng walked out from his palace and waved a hand. The letters of challenge floated up in front of him for him to browse.
“I didn’t think that so many of my fellow disciples wanted to exchange pointers with me!” Zhao Feng gave a carefree smile.
But to those core disciples, this smile signified Zhao Feng’s contempt and disdain.
“Kid, just because you reached the Heavenly Divine Realm doesn’t give you the right to act so brashly!” a handsome silver-haired youth suddenly barked. Although he also had silver hair, his was simply not comparable to Zhao Feng’s.
“Whether or not I have the right isn’t for you to say!” As Zhao Feng flatly spoke, an invisible energy began to rise from his body.
At this moment, the clouds and wind suddenly began to turn around Zhao Feng.
“This energy…! Rank Five True God!”
Someone in the crowd was able to immediately determine Zhao Feng’s power from this energy.
“Heavens! Zhao Feng actually succeeded in attaining Rank Five of the Heavenly Divine Realm!”
“The worldly phenomena clearly vanished, but he somehow succeeded in reaching Rank Five anyway!”
The crowd buzzed with chatter.
“Rank Five True God…!” Zhang Yutong had an extremely gloomy expression.
“Does he really have this kind of ability?” The Life Sacred Land’s Xiahou Wu stared in shock at Zhao Feng.
Directly attaining Rank Five of the Heavenly Divine Realm was something only the best prodigies of God Realm Sacred Lands were capable of, but this insignificant nobody before him had managed to do it.
“Brother Feng!” Zhao Yufei was weeping in joy, crystalline beads rolling down her white cheeks. Now that Zhao Feng had attained Rank Five, the Spiritual Race would not impede their relationship.
In the sky, white clouds roiled and churned.
“Good kid! You really did manage to make Rank Five True God!” Ancient God Floating Spirit yelled out in pleasant surprise.
“I didn’t think that my Spiritual Race would have someone capable of directly attaining Rank Five of the Heavenly Divine Realm!” another Spiritual Race Ancient God said with emotion.
The ability to directly rise to Rank Five True God meant that one had the talent to reach Rank Nine and even aspire to the realm of God Lord.
“Our plans from before might have been a little too much….” An Ancient God suddenly gave a helpless laugh.
The other Ancient Gods instantly fell silent.
…
“A Rank Five True God? But how?” The silver-haired youth became dejected.
The Zhao Feng that he just jeered at had actually reached Rank Five of the Heavenly Divine Realm. He was an existence on the same level as a prodigy of a Sacred Land!
“I just broke through into the Heavenly Divine Realm, and I just happen to need opponents to exchange pointers with and consolidate my strength. These letters of challenge really came at the right time.” Zhao Feng chortled.
“My name is True God Zhi Gang, and I was one of the disciples who challenged you. If you have the guts, accept my challenge!” the silver-haired youth immediately said.
He had called Zhao Feng arrogant and brash, but then Zhao Feng displayed a level of strength that shocked everyone and left him speechless and ashamed. If he defeated Zhao Feng in a fair duel, he could recover his dignity, but the prerequisite was that Zhao Feng had to be willing to accept his challenge.
“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Zhao Feng flatly replied.
“Okay!” True God Zhi Gang was somewhat pleased. In his view, Zhao Feng had become overconfident from directly reaching the level of Rank Five True God.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The two figures swiftly vanished into the distance.
“Zhao Feng managed to reach Rank Five True God. This is his first battle after breaking into the Heavenly Divine Realm. Hurry! Let’s go and watch!”
“But True God Zhi Gang is an extremely powerful existence among the Rank Five True Gods….”
Many peripheral disciples and inner disciples quickly left.
“Let’s go as well!” Zhang Yutong immediately said.
At this moment, he could no longer tear his eyes away from Zhao Feng. By reaching Rank Five of the Heavenly Divine Realm, Zhao Feng had almost assured his place as the most dazzling young disciple of the Spiritual Race. Even Zhang Yutong would have to admit his inferiority. Zhang Yutong was extremely unwilling to accept this!
“Brother Zhang, relax. Zhao Feng might have reached Rank Five, but his loss in this battle is assured!” a core disciple earnestly said.
Zhao Feng had just broken into the Heavenly Divine Realm, but he was thinking too highly of himself if he thought he could so quickly challenge a Rank Five True God.
…
Zhao Feng’s palace was instantly deserted. Everyone had left for the only challenge stage in the peripheral disciple area.
On this stage, True God Zhi Gang and Zhao Feng stared at each other.
“True God Zhi Gang has the Pure Origin bloodline, so he can apply his bloodline energy to his Divine Power to strengthen it. He also cultivates a technique that refines his Divine Power. Any ordinary Rank Five True God who fights with him will immediately find themselves at a disadvantage,” a disciple who had some understanding of True God Zhi Gang said with a smile.
“Zhao Feng might have incredible talent to reach Rank Five of the Heavenly Divine Realm, but he’s no match for True God Zhi Gang!” an inner disciple concluded.
“You just became a Rank Five True God. You’re no match for me,” True God Zhi Gang said with a smile. His heart was bursting with accomplishment at the thought of defeating a genius like this.
“You talk a lot of nonsense,” Zhao Feng coldly glared at his opponent as he scornfully said.
“Hmph, let me give you a taste of my Divine Power!” True God Zhi Gang was somewhat incensed and coldly harrumphed.
Boom!
His body suddenly exploded with a mighty Divine Power. This was a belt of Divine Power that seemed to be made of white crystal. It was almost tangible, with runes and inscriptions clearly visible on its surface.
At the same time, True God Zhi Gang also activated his bloodline power. A sliver of searing hot power ran through his Divine Power, strengthening it somewhat.
“Heavens! True God Zhi Gang has advanced another level in his technique. With his bloodline power, his Divine Power is nearly at Rank Six!”
“Ah, it seems like there’s no hope for Zhao Feng. At least he’ll be able to catch up very quickly in the future!”
Quite a few disciples couldn’t help but feel pity for Zhao Feng. If Zhao Feng had found any other Rank Five True God to challenge, the resulting battle wouldn’t have been as humiliating.
Boom!
True God Zhi Gang waved his hand, sending that red belt of Divine Power shooting at Zhao Feng like a lightning bolt.
“Divine Power….” Zhao Feng muttered.
Even before he had broken through into the Heavenly Divine Realm, no one was able to compete with the strength of his Divine Power. He just didn’t know if his Divine Power could compare with True God Zhi Gang’s.
Zhao Feng waved his hand, sending out a white blade of pure Divine Power.
Boom! Bang!
These two attacks made of pure Divine Power clashed.
“Hah, you just became a Rank Five True God. Your Divine Power won’t even be able to take a single clash with my Divine Power!” True God Zhi Gang immediately jeered when he saw that Zhao Feng had only used Divine Power.
But he barely finished speaking when a crystalline white Divine Power shot out from the explosive clash. This white blade of Divine Power was coming right at him!
“How could this be!?” True God Zhi Gang was almost speechless as he circulated his Divine Power, putting all his remaining strength into stopping this attack.
The spectators were also stunned. None of them had imagined this result.
“This… is impossible!” A hint of savagery appeared on True God Zhi Gang’s face as he surrounded himself in a vast sea of Divine Power and charged at Zhao Feng.
This time, True God Zhi Gang didn’t underestimate Zhao Feng. He used a combat skill and even added Intent energy.
“You’re too weak.”
These words from Zhao Feng almost made True God Zhi Gang go mad with rage.
Boom! Bang!
Zhao Feng’s body suddenly exploded forward. At the same time, a five-colored lightning began to surge out of his body. His body seemed to transform into a five-colored dragon.
Brrrooom!
A streak of five-colored lightning swept through True God Zhi Gang’s body. The power around True God Zhi Gang was immediately annihilated.
His body, charred black, dropped to the ground.
Hisss!
The earth and sky were silent!
Defeating True God Zhi Gang in a single blow… was this a feat someone who had just become a Rank Five True God could accomplish? The core disciples shook their heads in disbelief.
“This is impossible!” The Life Sacred Land’s Xiahou Wu was also astonished.
“So strong, so handsome!” Several female disciples were immediately entranced by Zhao Feng’s performance.
“Too weak,” Zhao Feng softly said.
These words immediately caused an uproar in the crowd.
Too weak? Too weak!?
Those people who had once targeted Zhao Feng now didn’t dare to offend him, and they clenched their teeth, their bodies shaking.
The Ancient Gods in the sky were also stunned.
“How could he be this strong? Did he manage to completely solidify his cultivation in that dimension of his?”
“That must be what happened. This Zhao Feng cultivates a special technique. His Divine Power is extremely formidable, and the Divine Stages he formed are all incredibly stable.”
Several Ancient Gods began to praise Zhao Feng and increasingly began to find him more pleasing to the eye.
Two of the Ancient Gods suddenly had an idea: take Zhao Feng as their disciple.
