Chapter 1089: The Little Thieving Cat's Actions
Demigod Arcane Void didn't know what to do after seeing Demigod Withered Breath go on the defensive. If Demigod Arcane Void could manage to defend against Demigod Withered Breath and his substandard God weapon, Demigod Withered Breath could obviously do the same.
Crack!
The cracks on the crystal of the red fruit started to become bigger. Demigod Arcane Void was extremely impatient, but he couldn't do anything. There were only two non-human Sacred Kings present, and they didn't dare to help Demigod Arcane Void because there were more human experts present.
"Demigod Arcane Void is nowhere near as strong as Demigod Withered Breath!" Zhao Feng realized. There were obviously differences in strength between Demigods as well, and being the Grand Elder of Sky Suspension Palace, Demigod Withered Breath was an expert only below Demigod Dragon Emperor of the Grand Imperial Hall.
"If there are no accidents, that red fruit will belong to Demigod Withered Breath!" Zhao Feng slowly said to himself before turning his gaze in other directions.
At this moment, Zhao Yufei was cultivating in a corner. There was a jade tablet with many rings on it in the crystal wall behind her. These rings slowly moved around and gave off a faint divine aura that merged into Zhao Yufei's body.
Weng~
Zhao Yufei's flawless body flashed with a faint purple light that caused all the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi nearby to quickly merge into her body.
"Divine aura?" A late-stage human Sacred Lord close to Zhao Yufei was stunned, but he knew Zhao Yufei's identity and her bloodline, so he didn't disturb her.
"From the looks of it, Yufei has found her own fortune!" Zhao Feng faintly smiled.
Zhao Yufei's Spiritual Race Bloodline was extremely sensitive toward Heaven Earth Yuan Qi. Although she couldn't dig out the treasure in the crystal walls, her Spiritual Race Bloodline could still absorb the energy from the crystal jade stone tablet through the walls.
This jade stone tablet was most likely related to the Spiritual Race in some way.
Zhao Feng then turned his eyes in the direction of Nan Gongsheng. What made Zhao Feng surprised was that Nan Gongsheng had found a place where he could consolidate his foundation and create a clone. Nan Gongsheng suddenly ended his cultivation, and the power of his Little World projection faded away, revealing a clone that hadn't been completely created yet.
"Evil God Mental Thought Body, I'll leave it to you!" Nan Gongsheng said impatiently, and a purple-and-blood-colored figure flashed from Nan Gongsheng's body as part of it entered the incomplete clone.
"Kekeke, let's start!"
The eyes of Nan Gongsheng's clone flashed with a weird purple-and-blood-colored light as it revealed an evil smile.
Nan Gongsheng's clone wasn't complete yet and lacked a lot of Intent, but part of the Evil God Mental Thought Body's Intent entered the clone and merged with the clone, then released a powerful source of mental energy.
Boom!
Nan Gongsheng and his incomplete clone then attacked the giant rock that Nan Gongsheng was cultivating on at the same time. One could see that there were as many cracks on the crystal that Nan Gongsheng and his clone attacked, and within the cracks was a black fruit. This black fruit gave off zero light; it was different from the bright fruits on the vines.
Bam!
Nan Gongsheng and his clone both used a wisp of Divine Power.
"Nan Gongsheng's comprehension has increased dramatically after coming here, so his overall strength is increasing very quickly!" Zhao Feng analyzed. Furthermore, the Evil God Mental Thought Body was controlling the clone.
The other experts set their eyes on certain crystals as well, just like what Nan Gongsheng did. This was because they realized that there were weapons or treasures within the crystals, but because the crystals blocked off the aura, no one was certain what kind of item was inside.
Zhao Feng's Intent suddenly felt a unique disturbance. This was something that only Zhao Feng could sense.
"Little thieving cat!" Zhao Feng turned toward the position of the little thieving cat.
At this moment, the little thieving cat was hidden in the air. Normal people couldn't see it. In front of the little thieving cat was a large crystal rock.
Weng~
A faint layer of gold light covered Zhao Feng's left eye as he saw through everything. At this instant, Zhao Feng saw what was within the giant rock in front of the little thieving cat - a short black blade and a purple-and-blood-colored crystal.
Zhao Feng could only see a wavy symbol on the short blade, and the purple-and-blood-colored crystal was connected to the bottom of the crystal rock, as if it was connected to some sort of power.
"What does the little thieving cat want?" Zhao Feng was puzzled. He knew that little thieving cat had set its eyes on the short black dagger and the purple-and-blood-colored crystal, but both of them were at the very center of the giant crystal rock. There were no cracks on the crystal at all. Even if more than a dozen Demigods teamed up, they wouldn't be able to break through this giant crystal rock.
Miao!
The little thieving cat opened its mouth. Only Zhao Feng knew what the little thieving cat meant.
"Only one chance?" Zhao Feng murmured, but he didn't understand what it meant.
A stealthy silver-gray flow of light suddenly appeared from the little thieving cat's hidden body. This light spun around the little thieving cat, and Zhao Feng saw that the little thieving cat's figure became more transparent, as if its stealth technique had instantly become several times better.
From Zhao Feng's point of view, the little thieving cat wasn't just hiding in space anymore; it had merged with the laws themselves. If Zhao Feng didn't use his golden eye ability, he wouldn't be able to sense the little thieving cat's existence. He would only be able to sense the little thieving cat's location with the spiritual pet contract.
Hu!
The little thieving cat turned invisible and flashed forward gently without a trace. The next instant, Zhao Feng realized that the little thieving cat had entered the crystal. The little thieving cat was sitting on the purple-and-blood-colored crystal, and its left claw landed on the short black blade.
"How is this possible!?" Zhao Feng was utterly stunned and almost exited seclusion.
"What is it?" Sacred King Earth Ghost looked at the giant crystal Zhao Feng was looking at, but he couldn't see anything.
Zhao Feng glanced toward Sacred King Earth Ghost. He still hadn't managed to destroy the shred of crystal, but that was understandable. After all, Sacred King Earth Ghost couldn't attack carelessly like Demigod Withered Breath in the sky.
In order to stop others from noticing, Sacred King Earth Ghost had to carefully attack the crystal and didn't dare to use too much power. In addition, not too much time had passed since the two started working together.
Zhao Feng didn't bother with Sacred King Earth Ghost. He looked at the little thieving cat once more.
The little thieving cat had somehow managed to enter the giant crystal! However, the little thieving cat's body couldn't move at all - it was completely stuck in the giant crystal rock.
The little thieving cat's eyes turned toward Zhao Feng. Although it couldn't speak, Zhao Feng could sense what the little thieving cat wanted to say; it was showing off to Zhao Feng. A dark glow of light appeared from the little thieving cat's body once more and flowed the short black blade through its left paw.
Weng~~
The wavy symbol on the short black blade instantly gave off a silver light.
"You better watch out or you'll be stuck there forever!" Zhao Feng cursed. He realized that he had underestimated the little thieving cat once again. He didn't expect it to have hidden such a powerful and mysterious skill. This goddamned pet never thought about what it could do for its master and instead only thought for itself.
The short black blade that the little thieving cat wanted was definitely not simple. One had to know that the little thieving cat already had the Shadow Kill Imperial Dagger and the Dark Golden Dragon Snake Whip.
The little thieving cat glanced at Zhao Feng and sent him a message. Only then did Zhao Feng's expression soften. Zhao Feng then nodded his head and agreed with the little thieving cat's plan.
Zhao Feng turned toward the entrance. A total of seven figures had appeared. These seven were Sacred King Feather Spirit, Sacred King Xihai, and Sacred King Green Light's group.
"Zhao Feng!" Sacred King Xihai immediately sensed Zhao Feng's existence. After all, Zhao Feng's position was extremely eye-catching, and he radiated a powerful mental energy disturbance that tossed and turned the Intent of Heaven and Earth.
"We're late. The treasures that are easy to be obtained have already been taken away. We should kill him right now!" Sacred King Feather Spirit inspected his surroundings before saying.
"Let's go!" Sacred King Xihai inspected his surroundings as well and agreed with Sacred King Feather Spirit. Although the other Sacred Lords wanted the find treasures or cultivate, they didn't dare to go against three Sacred Kings.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A total of seven people charged toward Zhao Feng.
"Sacred King Earth Ghost, those guys from the Grand Imperial Hall are charging toward us! You need to stop and distract them with me!" Zhao Feng messaged Sacred King Earth Ghost.
"What? You even offended the Grand Imperial Hall?" Sacred King Earth Ghost was speechless, but what Zhao Feng said was correct. They had to distract them or else the fruit would be exposed.
"Zhao Feng, you have nowhere you can run to this time. Today, you shall die!" Sacred King Feather Spirit revealed a cocky smile as he charged over.
Hu!
Zhao Feng immediately stopped cultivating and started to fly into the distance. The seven upper echelon members of the Grand Imperial Hall immediately started to chase after him as if they were bent on killing Zhao Feng.
Sacred King Earth Ghost suddenly appeared after Zhao Feng directed the seven away.
"May I ask why Brother Feather Spirit and Brother Xihai are chasing after Little Friend Zhao?" Sacred King Earth Ghost suddenly asked, and those from the Grand Imperial Hall instantly turned around and looked at Sacred King Earth Ghost in shock.
They knew that there was a feud between the Earth Demon Cult and the Hall of Gods, but Sacred King Earth Ghost was now speaking for Zhao Feng?
"It's like this; when my team arrived, we combined forces with Zhao Feng's group in order to obtain the treasures..." Sacred King Earth Ghost had to explain. He and Zhao Feng did indeed work together for the fruit, but Sacred King Earth Ghost was the Grand Elder of the Earth Demon Cult, and the Earth Demon Cult was one of the top Demonic Dao forces in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty. Most importantly, they were allies with Nine Darkness Palace.
While these three Sacred Kings were upper echelon members of the Grand Imperial Hall, they didn't represent the Demigods of the Grand Imperial Hall, and they didn't act very forceful toward Sacred King Earth Ghost.
"Sacred King Earth Ghost, this brat Zhao Feng blackmailed us - members of the Grand Imperial Hall - and he's the culprit behind the death of the Thirteenth Prince...." Sacred King Feather Spirit slowly told Sacred King Earth Ghost about Zhao Feng's crimes. He believed that, as long as they revealed their decisiveness to kill Zhao Feng, the Grand Elder of the Earth Demon Cult would retreat.
However, at this moment Zhao Feng didn't even care about what the members of the Grand Imperial Hall were talking about with Sacred King Earth Ghost. Instead, he split out part of his consciousness to inspect what the little thieving cat was doing.
