"Ha ha ha, this Ghost Axe truly lives up to its reputation! With it in hand, at my current cultivation level, I reckon anyone below the third level of Heaven Martial is no match for me." At this moment,
That earlier axe swing had only been a probing attack; he hadn't even used his full power. Had he done so, those two would have been utterly obliterated—probably crushed into piles of meat paste before the blade's edge even reached them.
"Let me see if you can cut through this barrier formation."
Joy aside, Chu Feng didn't dare let his guard down. He shot forward through the air, the Ghost Axe in his hand once again sweeping out.
This time, the black blade of energy expanded by several meters compared to before, its power multiplied severalfold. Space itself rippled and twisted, the air cleaved in two, and even the spiritual, yuan, and mystic qi between heaven and earth recoiled before its might, scattering outwards.
"Boom!" Finally, the black blade struck the blue barrier. The violent energy instantly transformed into turbulent ripples and vortexes, sweeping across the sky.
"Look! What's happening?"
The sudden commotion startled everyone. Within the Supreme Manor, many who didn't know the cause were drawn by the piercing sound, lifting their heads to gaze at the sky.
"That... that looks like Chu Feng! What is he doing?"
"And... what is that thing in his hand?"
Even though it was far away, some with sharp eyes instantly recognized Chu Feng. But compared to Chu Feng himself, the Asura Ghost Axe in his grasp captured far more attention.

This revealed a fact: even among blue-robed Spirit World Masters, there was a variation in barrier strength. This variation was inextricably linked to the cultivator's own martial power.

"What a grand 'inescapable net.' Today, I'll break right through it!" Chu Feng snorted coldly. His left hand brushed lightly over his Universe Bag, and an attack rune appeared in his grasp.
"Go!" With a flick of his finger, the rune shot forth. Then came a deafening "Boom!" as the blue barrier exploded open, revealing a massive hole.
Seeing this, Chu Feng laughed heartily and urged his Azure Dragon to soar forward, passing through the newly created opening.
"Damn it! Those old fossils from the Spirit World Guild are secretly helping this brat!" In that instant, Jie Yan recognized at a glance that the attack rune Chu Feng used was not something an ordinary person could forge.

The first two would never help Chu Feng, so Jie Yan didn't need to think twice to know who had helped him. It must be his old nemesis,
