Chapter 889: Duke Nanfeng's Danger

Bam! Boom~~~~!

Zhao Feng and Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo only fought within a radius of a couple dozen yards, but even the Duke's Palace was shaking. If it wasn't for the fact that the Duke's Palace was made of such high-quality materials and fortified by many arrays, it would have crumbled already.

However, the hearts of all the experts within the Duke's Palace still trembled as they carefully pulled away. The silver-haired peak Emperor blocked the powerful shockwaves and protected the weaker people.

"Sacred Lightning Dominating Fist!"

Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body cracked as his fists released brilliant glows of light that shot into the sky.

Hu~~ Bam! Bam!

Fists made of golden lightning were unleashed, and they were each the size of a blazing sun.

This Fist Intent and this body-strengthening technique are similar to the legendary Golden Kun Sacred Body....

Holes started to appear on Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's Demonic Spirit Body as explosions raged across his body.

After using the Sacred Lightning Dominating Fist, Zhao Feng's punches contained more power and a superior Intent that crushed everything in their path.

At this moment in time, Zhao Feng's style of fighting was similar to the child Demigod, and his mastery of the Sacred Body was even stronger. On top of that, Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body contained the element of Lightning, and after being refined by the Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique, the lightning was very powerful.

The biggest difference between Zhao Feng and the child Demigod was the element and Intent of the Sacred Lightning Dominating Fist. However, Zhao Feng also had the mutated Blood Devil Sun bloodline, which was extremely explosive and increased his battle-power by an entire level or two.

Crack! Crack! Boom! Boom!

Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Fists shot through the sky, and he seemed to transform into a God of War as he smashed through everything in his way. Even someone as strong as Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo was pressured by Zhao Feng in an instant.

Shockwaves formed where they clashed, ravaging across half of the Duke's Palace.

"Scorching Sky Demonic Sword!"

A giant flaming sword started to form from the flames around Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo as he decided to exit close combat against Zhao Feng.

In terms of close combat, no one was the match of a body cultivator. Especially against Zhao Feng, whose Sacred Lightning Body was even stronger than the famous Golden Kun Sacred Body.

"Wings of Wind and Lightning!"

A pair of giant wings formed behind Zhao Feng's back, and his speed and agility rose.

Peng!

Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's flaming sword landed on Zhao Feng, but it was pushed aside by the golden fists.

"Ha!"

The wings behind Zhao Feng's back whistled and summoned a tornado of wind and lightning that charred everything in its path black.

Hu~~ Boom!

Building after building within the Duke's Palace was turned into ashes.

Although Zhao Feng and Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo were both starting to fight in the air, once they both fought with their full strength, the force of their clashes was enough to destroy a two-star power.

"Zhao Feng, stop!" The silver-haired Emperor and company combined their strength to stop the shockwaves, but some of the arrays within the Duke's Palace had already been ripped into shreds.

Destruction was always easier than creation.

"All our information has underestimated Zhao Feng. Just how strong is the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor?" Bi Qingyue's body turned cold as she bore the shockwaves. She wanted to run, but the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly had locked onto her.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Rings of silk shot out toward Bi Qingyue, and she was forced into desperation. There was the occasional ring of silk that landed on her as she tried to dodge, and by the time she pushed it away, more silk would land on her.

The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly's eyes were filled with pure playfulness. Without Zhao Feng's order, it was just going to play around, otherwise Bi Qingyue would have turned into a sticky rice dumpling already.

"Lord Protector, we won't be able to escape if we don't leave right now!" Bi Qingyue quickly messaged.

Miao miao!

However, a sound appeared behind her that made her heart go cold.

The little thieving cat had a playful expression as it took a dark golden chain from around its neck.

Weng~~ Shua!

The dark golden chain turned into an agile golden dragon whip. The roar of a dragon could be heard. Every time this dark golden dragon snake whip was waved around, an invisible force appeared that could pressure True Yuan and bloodlines, as if it was from a true dragon.

This whip had been obtained from the golden skeleton in the ruined city of the Divine Illusion Dimension. Nan Gongsheng's nose ring also came from the golden skeleton. The golden skeleton was at least a Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lord when they were alive, and it was likely that they were on the cusp of becoming a Demigod.

"Arghh!"

Bi Qingyue's dark green robes were ripped apart by the attacks from both sides, revealing a pair of snow-white legs.

Hu~~

Bi Qingyue's legs felt hot as the little thieving cat's dark golden dragon snake whip wrapped around them. Her body froze as another wave of multi-colored silk firmly tied around the lower half of her body.

In just a breath or two, Bi Qingyue had turned into a cocoon-like sticky rice dumpling.

Miao miao!

The little thieving cat leapt onto the multi-colored sticky rice ball as the whip turned into a thin chain and went back around its neck.

Hu~ Hu~ Pa!

The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly flew onto the little thieving cat's neck and nudged it with its chubby body. The combined force of these two spiritual pets had managed to capture a peak Emperor alive. They then sat there and watched the battle between Zhao Feng and Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo curiously.

Not good. Bi Qingyue's been captured...! Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's heart went cold. Of the five peak Emperors that originally came, there was only him left now. He was filled with regret, but there was nothing he could do at this point.

At this moment, the silver-haired peak Emperor couldn't stand the destruction that Zhao Feng and the Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo were causing anymore and charged over.

The addition of an extra peak Emperor would definitely affect the battle. Furthermore, Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo still had to watch out for the two cute, harmless-looking pets. These two spiritual pets had captured a peak Emperor by just playing around, and this made Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's heart fall.

Just Zhao Feng alone could fight against him, let alone Zhao Feng a bunch of other factors together.

"Today's battle ends here. Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor, I've tested your strength." Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's expression was filled with hatred and unwillingness as he turned into a dark flaming cloud and flashed into the sky.

What speed! Zhao Feng was faintly surprised. Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's secret technique was probably close to the level of the Wind Lightning Emperor's inheritance.

Although this fight was short, it used up a lot of Zhao Feng's energy. While he could fight against Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo head-on in the short term, he would only become more and more tired as the fight went on. This was due to the difference in cultivation, mastery of skills, and strength. For example, although Zhao Feng's bloodline had a lifesteal effect, Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo's Scorching Demon Spirit Body had an undying attribute.

The Sacred Lightning Body will also have an undying attribute eventually, but that will take a long time. Only a small number of Emperors with great fortune, talent, or a rare bloodline can fully cultivate the attribute of undying. Zhao Feng analyzed his weakness.

Luckily, Zhao Feng had cultivated the Sacred Lightning Protection, a secret technique that merged the Wind Lightning Technique and the Sacred Lightning Body together for defensive purposes. In a head-on exchange, even Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo wouldn't be able to do anything to him, otherwise Zhao Feng would've been at a huge disadvantage in the battle just now.

Of course, in a true life-or-death battle, Zhao Feng's chances of winning were higher. After all, he hadn't even truly used his speed or the God's Spiritual Eye.

"Little Friend Zhao, if you keep on fighting, the Duke's Palace will be destroyed. How will the Duke manage to break through then?" The silver-haired peak Emperor gave a bitter smile, and there were complex emotions in his eyes. If he had known that Zhao Feng was this strong, they wouldn't have lost a Void God Realm Emperor.

"Duke Nanfeng?" Zhao Feng suddenly thought of something as he gazed at the purple-and-golden whirlpool in the sky above the Duke's Palace.

Weng~~ Boom!

The giant purple-and-golden whirlpool started to shake, and the purple glow that shone across Heaven and Earth faded. The aura that had almost reached the Mystic Light Realm started to shake.

"Wait, something's wrong!" Zhao Feng's expression changed dramatically.

He suddenly realized that, because of the five peak Emperors from Nine Darkness Palace, everyone had forgotten about something. The main protagonist in the Duke's Palace right now was Duke Nanfeng, who was trying to break through. The silver-haired Emperor and company, as well as Zhao Feng, were there to protect him.

"Assassin~~~~!"

"Protect my Lord!"

A layer of darkness covered the area where Duke Nanfeng was in seclusion.

"Arghhhh!" Several Kings around the secret chamber where Duke Nanfeng was in seclusion were cut into pieces by the darkness before they were able to get close.

"Kekeke.... Duke Nanfeng, your breakthrough ends here," a cold voice resounded across the chamber.

Duke Nanfeng sat within the chamber, and a sacred glow radiated around him. A male in darkness appeared behind him.

Shua!

A sword similar to the Shadow Kill Imperial Dagger appeared in the man's hand, and he stabbed it into Duke Nanfeng's back.

Wah!

Duke Nanfeng's body stiffened as he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face became pale-white.

He turned around and glanced at the male in darkness with shock. There was a thin layer of dark scales on the male's surface. He had a slim figure, as if he had no bone structure. He was not a human.

"Zhe zhe, the experts in your palace exceeded my expectations. Without Nine Darkness Palace's interference, my mission to assassinate you wouldn't have proceeded so smoothly."

The male in darkness pulled out the sword.

Duke Nanfeng groaned as his body shook. Blood didn't come out from the injury on his body; instead, a disgusting and smelly black smoke started to appear.
