"What terrifying power — what is that?"
The black flame barrier that engulfed both Chu Feng and Jiang Yuantai left not only the Alchemy Immortal Sect members in shock, but the Nine Souls Galaxy crowd was equally horrified.
The reason was simple — the aura emanating from that black flame barrier was far too bizarre.
It felt like a power that did not belong to this world, brimming with an aura of pure evil.
"That's Asura power — could it be that Chu Feng has obtained a treasure forged from Asura force?" Grandma Wishing God analyzed.
Once she spoke, the others finally came to their senses.
This was indeed Asura power. The only difference was that its oppressive force was so overwhelming that none of them had immediately recognized it.
"A supreme treasure from the Asura Spirit World?"
"Or has Chu Feng already..."
Sima Xiangtu's brows furrowed deeply as a sense of unease settled over him.
According to what Ming Ri Prince had said, Chu Feng should have been dead. Even if he somehow survived, he should never have been able to tap into the power of the Asura Burial Ground.
After all, Yao Yao simply did not possess that kind of power.
Yet here Chu Feng was — not only alive, but with his cultivation drastically enhanced. Most importantly, he had actually released a powerful barrier made entirely of Asura force.
Such a transformation forced Sima Xiangtu to connect Chu Feng with those Asura evil spirits from the Asura Burial Ground.
And just how terrifying those Asura evil spirits were, he knew all too well.
Thinking of this, Sima Xiangtu's brows knitted tighter, and his gaze grew contemplative.
Whoosh —
Suddenly, Chu Feng swung his leg and kicked Jiang Yuantai straight out of the sky and into the ground below.
In that instant, dust erupted everywhere as the sheer force carved a colossal crater into the earth.
When the dust settled, people saw that both Chu Feng and Jiang Yuantai were in that crater.
Only Jiang Yuantai was in a wretched state.
Chu Feng's foot was planted squarely on Jiang Yuantai's chest, and the terrifying force had punched clean through it.
That unique sword was also pointed directly at Jiang Yuantai's throat.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuantai was too stunned by the pain to react. He simply stood frozen.
Jiang Kongping was equally stunned.
The two of them knew with absolute clarity — they had seen this very scene in that prophecy.
The vision from the prophecy had actually come true!!!
"Chu Feng, if you so much as touch my young master again, I swear you will not leave this place alive."
A furious roar rang out — it was Jiang Taibai.
A surge of aura erupted around him as his cultivation spiked, jumping from second-grade Half God to third-grade Half God.
"As if I'd be spared if I didn't do this."
Chu Feng let out a cold laugh. Then, in one swift motion, he thrust his sword forward and pierced straight through one of Jiang Yuantai's eyes.
"Despicable!!!"
Jiang Taibai roared with fury. His palm flipped, and a supreme-grade weapon saber materialized in his hand.
He swung the saber with devastating force.
Boom, boom, boom —
The heavens and earth trembled as brilliant golden light blazed across the sky!
Looking closer, a martial force saber tens of thousands of meters long had pierced through the clouds, cleaving down toward Chu Feng.
BOOM —
But when this strike crashed against the barrier formed by the black flames, it shattered into pieces just like the earlier martial force palm.
"Heavens — even such an attack can't break through?"
Staring at the golden fragments scattering across the void, the onlookers wore complicated expressions.
Truthfully, none of them had been able to properly see Jiang Taibai's attack just now, but they had felt that terrifying aura.
The horror of that presence had been so overwhelming that they felt, had it been directed at them, not a single one would have survived.
Yet even such a devastating strike had failed to so much as budge those black flames. The shock was palpable.
Hmmph —
Suddenly, someone let out a soft grunt.
It was the old Daoist with the snub nose.
It turned out that an elder at the Half God realm from the Alchemy Immortal Sect had sneaked up to the old Daoist's side and driven a dagger through his body.
"Chu Feng, release my young master, or I'll slaughter every last one of these people," the Alchemy Immortal Sect elder snarled at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng glanced at the white-haired elder. He said nothing, but a vicious gleam erupted in his eyes.
Pfft —
Chu Feng drove his sword downward, piercing clean through Jiang Yuantai's Dantian.
"Stop!!!"
The entire Alchemy Immortal Sect erupted in alarm.
"Get away from my Master. Touch him one more time, and I'll take your life."
Chu Feng turned back toward the elder. The man's expression twisted with complicated emotions — this move had been meant to coerce Chu Feng into releasing Jiang Yuantai.
He had never expected it to cost Jiang Yuantai instead. And from the murderous look on Chu Feng's face, this was no bluff.
He immediately released the old Daoist with the snub nose and retreated a considerable distance.
"Chu Feng, stop hurting my brother."
But at that moment, Jiang Kongping spoke up.
