Chapter 1213: Eye of Life
"Kill everyone here!" the captain of the small group of soldiers callously ordered.
There were six men in this team. The captain was a Rank Three True God while the rest were Rank One True Gods.
Zhao Feng scanned the faction that he had been teleported to. At this time, there were only a few Rank One True Gods and a small number of Demigod experts. In addition, there were also the old, weak, and infirm that were below the Mystic Light Realm.
It seems like this isn't an ordinary war between four-star factions. It should be a war between four-and-a-half-star factions! Zhao Feng conjectured to himself.
In a battle between four-star factions, a small team would never contain so many True God experts. Moreover, the scale of the battle on the horizon was causing the heavens to shudder and the earth to quake. Twenty to thirty powerful True Gods were probably taking part in that battle.
If it's a four-and-a-half-star faction, this place must be the territory of Spirit Grass Gate!
After killing the three Sky Feather Island Lord brothers, Zhao Feng obtained a new map that gave him some understanding of the factions bordering Blue Ocean Bay.
Since this was a war between four-and-a-half-star factions, the four-star factions administrated by those four-and-a-half-star factions naturally had to take part as well. The four-star faction that Zhao Feng had teleported to was probably one of the participants on the battlefield, and its experts had probably been sent to the front.
Swish!
An ancient bronze compass appeared in the hand of the group's captain. The captain slapped the compass, causing a transparent curtain of yellow light to soar into the sky. Upon reaching a certain altitude, the yellow curtain of light scattered, eventually forming a faint yellow barrier that completely enveloped the faction.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Afterward, the group charged into the faction and commenced the slaughter.
"Charge! Kill these scoundrels!" The remaining fighters left in the faction immediately charged out, all of them fearless in the face of death.
However, they were simply no match for this group. By charging forward, they were merely sending themselves to their deaths.
"Haaa, the strong eat the weak!" Zhao Feng sighed as he silently drew back.
This matter had nothing to with him, nor was it something that he could worry about. This was a battle between four-and-a-half-star factions, and there might even be an Ancient God presiding over this battle.
"Eh? There's still a Demigod over there!" A Rank One True God in the group gave an excited laugh and rushed at Zhao Feng.
In this war, kill count determined one's rewards. To a Rank One True God, Demigods were the finest prey.
"I'm just a person who happened to use the teleportation array to come here. I'm not a part of this faction," Zhao Feng looked at the Rank One True God and immediately explained.
"Heheh, don't even think about trying to fool me. You're a member of Spirit Grass Gate!" The Rank True God paused for a moment before giving a wicked smile.
Zhao Feng truly had come out of the nearby teleportation array just now, and the traits of his body and aura indicated that he did not belong to this faction. But he was just a Demigod. Killing him would still allow this Rank One True God to add to his kill count.
This Demigod could only be blamed for his poor luck in not inquiring on the situation and teleporting into the territory of Spirit Grass Gate.
"Kill!" The Rank One True God swung his halberd at Zhao Feng.
Rooooar!
An enormous dark yellow dragon blocked out the sun as it charged at Zhao Feng.
"Outrageous!" Zhao Feng's face turned cold.
Even if there was a chance that he belonged to Spirit Grass Gate, this True God should have at least checked his identity first. But this person clearly didn't care about which faction Zhao Feng belonged to and decided to kill first.
The enormous dragon seemed on the verge of swallowing Zhao Feng whole. However, Zhao Feng extended a palm and lightly clenched it.
Brrrooom!
Five Elements Intent fused with the world, combining with Zhao Feng's Intent to create an incredibly mighty power. In an instant, the entire world seemed to be standing on Zhao Feng's side, its immense power condensing into a tangible and enormous palm consisting of five colors that grasped the image of the yellow dragon.
Bang!
Zhao Feng exploded the yellow dragon into pieces.
"What...?" The Rank One True God was frozen to the spot in stupefaction. His attack had been easily destroyed by his opponent.
A Quasi-God - a Rank Two Quasi-God! How else could he be this strong!? A Rank Two Quasi-God in a four-and-a-half-star faction would be considered a peerless genius!
"I said before, I'm just passing through!" Zhao Feng icily said to the Rank One True God.
Zhao Feng turned to leave.
"Stop!" somebody roared at Zhao Feng.
A brown-armored figure rushed toward Zhao Feng with astonishing strength.
"What's the meaning of this?" Zhao Feng stared at this man, the Rank Three True God who was leading the team of invading True Gods.
"I've never seen you amongst the Rank Two Quasi-Gods of any of the surrounding factions!" The Rank Three True God stared at Zhao Feng with a sharp and keen gaze.
He had never seen a Rank Two Quasi-God like Zhao Feng in Spirit Grass Gate, nor in the other nearby four-and-a-half-star factions.
"The world is unimaginably vast. There is always a stronger man, always a taller mountain," Zhao Feng flatly replied.
"Hmph, come back with me. If you're not a member of Spirit Grass Gate, Yellow Dragon Pavilion will let you leave!" the Rank Three True God coldly barked.
Zhao Feng's expression sank. He was not in a situation where his identity could survive close inspection. Moreover, Zhao Feng was confident that, as long as he was determined to not be a member of a four-and-a-half-star faction, he would not be so easily let go.
"Follow me!" Seeing that Zhao Feng did not answer, the Rank Three True God attacked.
Boom!
Yellow scales emerged over his entire body as he called upon Earth energy to tower over Zhao Feng like a lofty mountain. This dreadful pressure caused the nearby Rank One True God to vomit blood and rapidly back up.
"Since you want to fight, let's fight!" Zhao Feng lost his patience.
This small team only had one Rank Three True God, so it couldn't do a thing to him. Zhao Feng was just afraid that, by offending this faction, he would once more end up being sidetracked.
But even if he didn't offend them, these two factions were in the middle of a war, so Zhao Feng would find it very difficult to use their teleportation arrays anyway.
Swish!
Zhao Feng's body instantly grew taller as five-colored lightning began to crackle around him.
They were both using body-strengthening techniques, but when Zhao Feng used his, the energy of the world instantly began to gather around him. This was because Zhao Feng's Five Elements Divine Power contained Five Elements Intent, allowing him to naturally harmonize with the heavens and earth.
"Die!" The Rank Three True God saw that Zhao Feng was also a body-strengthening expert - one who seemed to be on an even higher level than he was - and he instantly grimaced.
"Yellow Dragon Battles the Heavens!" The Rank Three True God punched out with both hands, creating an earthen yellow dragon of enormous size and savage expression, seeming almost tangible.
"Sky Destroying Sacred Lightning Palm!" Zhao Feng circulated his Five Elements Divine Power and swatted out with one of his hands, firing out a mountain of five-colored lightning at his opponent.
Brrrooom!
This mountain of five-colored lightning was bursting with destructive power. It blasted through the yellow dragon and struck the Rank Three True God right in his chest.
Thump!
The Rank Three True God took half a step back, disbelief on his face.
How could this be!? the Rank Three True God mentally called out in alarm.
Although he had not attacked with all his power, he found it impossible to believe that a Rank Two Quasi-God could so easily destroy his technique. Could he be a Rank Three Quasi-God? Rank Three Quasi-Gods were peerless geniuses that only peak four-star powers could possess. How could one appear here? In addition, if this person was a Rank Three Quasi-God, he truly could not belong to Spirit Grass Gate.
"Good Sir, I meant no offense. You truly are not a member of Spirit Grass Gate. Please forgive this one's poor eyesight!" The Rank Three True God immediately apologized to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng might be backed by a peak four-star faction, or perhaps something even stronger. On the other hand, he only had Yellow Dragon Pavilion behind him, a somewhat strong four-and-a-half-star faction that was still very far away from becoming a peak four-star faction.
"Eh? This is...?" The Rank Three True God suddenly focused his gaze on the ground.
In that fierce clash between himself and Zhao Feng, a part of the ground had been flattened. A hardy stone slab had been revealed, the runes of an array visible upon it.
"Haha, so you were hiding here!" The Rank Three True God stared at the ground as he took out a message token and transmitted a message.
"Good Sir, I mistakenly accused you. In the future, the Yellow Dragon Pavilion will definitely pay you a visit to apologize. At present, my Yellow Dragon Pavilion is at war with Spirit Grass Gate. If Good Sir has no other concerns, you should leave as quickly as possible and not approach this war zone!" the Rank Three True God smiled at Zhao Feng and said.
If he hadn't inadvertently discovered his target through his fight with Zhao Feng, he would have missed this rare opportunity.
It was obvious that a secret room was hidden underground. An illusion array had been set up around the secret room, preventing Divine Sense and ordinary tools from discovering it. If he captured the target, he would receive a large reward.
"Haaa..." An elderly voice sighed from deep underground.
Following this sigh, two figures soared into the sky, exuding such an enormous power that even Zhao Feng was a little taken aback.
One of them was a man dressed in a dark green robe, the tremendous aura around him indicating that he was a Rank Four True God.
Next to him was a woman dressed in green, her hair a silky black and her skin white and tender. She had a pair of bluish-green eyes that were nimble and bursting with vitality. From a distance, this girl was surrounded by the exuberant vitality of nature, as if she was a princess of the forest.
The girl suddenly turned to Zhao Feng, a sorrowful look in her eyes.
Zhao Feng was slightly stunned. This woman's face was a natural work of pristine beauty, yet it also seemed to banish any profane thought from those who looked upon it. In particular, when Zhao Feng looked into her eyes, he instantly felt at peace.
"Hmph!" The green-robed elder shot a glance at Zhao Feng, his eyes layered with icy chilling intent. If Zhao Feng hadn't come out of nowhere and fought with the Rank Three True God, they might have been able to avoid being discovered and found an opportunity to escape.
Zhao Feng seemed to understand something. This small team had been so harsh and unwilling to let him go because they had an important objective. He had even apparently helped them out by exposing the location of this objective.
"Senior, please do not take offense. This junior did not do this intentionally...." Zhao Feng apologized. This was all a complete accident.
"Ning'er, let's go!" Although the elder resented Zhao Feng, he did not attack him. Instead, he immediately took the girl and began to flee.
But at this moment, an enormous pressure exploded out from the distant horizon.
Brrrooom!
A thick yellow cloud approached, casting the entire world into gloom and exerting an inexplicable pressure and unease.
"Haha, just where do you plan on running!?" An old man with dark yellow skin was standing upon this cloud, a tail growing from his back.
"True God Zhongtu!" The green-robed elder grimaced at the arrival of this True God expert.
True God Zhongtu was a Rank Five True God of Yellow Dragon Pavilion.
"You've got nowhere left to run, Eye of Life!" True God Zhongtu looked straight at the woman in green.
