In the very center of the second hall, three arrows floated in midair.
These three arrows were different from the golden arrows in Chu Feng's possession — they were three red arrows.
Not only were these arrows fiery red on the outside, but within them, flames surged. Those flames weren't red — they were purple, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws like the hands of a demon, reaching out to grasp something. It was extremely eerie.
Though these arrows looked eerie, from their outward appearance, one couldn't feel any pressure from them at all. They were far less alluring than the golden arrows, giving off a sense of empty bravado.
But right now, Chu Feng wasn't looking with ordinary mortal eyes — he was using his Heavenly Eyes. That was why he was so shocked.
Under his Heavenly Eyes, Chu Feng could see the power contained within these purple-flamed arrows.
The power held in even a single one of these arrows was likely something that an ordinary first-level Martial Emperor could not withstand.
These three purple-flamed arrows were arrows capable of slaying Martial Emperors.
"Treasure, you're deliberately tempting me, aren't you?" After carefully observing the arrows, Chu Feng smiled faintly, then turned around and walked back toward the second hall.
He thought to himself that the treasures here were genuine treasures — extremely rare, perhaps even one-of-a-kind treasures in the Martial Sacred Land.
Being able to come here could be considered his fortune. That dragon scale had only instructed him to take out ten golden arrows — it hadn't said he could take other items, but it also hadn't said he couldn't take other items.
If Chu Feng took these three purple-flamed arrows and the dragon scale discovered it, that would be fine — he could explain it away. But if the dragon scale didn't discover the arrows, then Chu Feng could claim them for himself and come out far ahead.
Not to mention using them to kill enemies — even if he took them out to auction, he believed he could exchange them for quite a bit of cultivation resources.
Step —
The moment Chu Feng stepped into the second hall, a tremendous wave of pressure swept over him, just like when he had first entered the first hall. It began to engulf his entire body, trying to crush his soul.
However, the pressure of the second hall was undoubtedly far more terrifying than that of the first.
At this moment, Chu Feng felt his brain swelling with unbearable pain, as though it was about to explode. Even his vision began to blur, his legs went weak, and he was utterly drained of strength.
"This strong?"
Chu Feng tried taking two more steps forward, but the pressure only grew stronger — so strong that his ears went deaf, blood continuously streamed from his nostrils and eyes, his physical body began to crumble, and cracks started appearing in his bones.
Under these circumstances, Chu Feng hurriedly activated the Vermilion Bird Revival Technique to repair his physical body. Though his body was repaired, the pain could not be.
At this moment, Chu Feng was truly in a dilemma. If he pressed forward, he could die in this hall at any moment. But if he retreated, he would miss the chance to obtain those three purple-flamed arrows.
"My bloodline brothers, I'm talking to you, Thunder Beasts — I'm begging you, put in a little more effort and help me hold on, will you?" With no other choice, Chu Feng could only plead with his bloodline.
But the bloodline remained unchanged. Clearly, they simply couldn't understand Chu Feng's words — or perhaps they were simply ignoring what he said.
"Hey, hey, hey — you need to get the situation straight. What's being tested here isn't cultivation, it's talent. So in other words, what's being tested here isn't me — it's you."
"If I die here, it's because I overestimated myself, and of course that's embarrassing. But the most embarrassed ones won't be me — it'll be you." Chu Feng didn't give up; instead, he began to needle them with mockery.
*Crackle —*
The moment those words left Chu Feng's mouth, the thunder seemed to understand what he had said and surged with even greater intensity. Under these conditions, the force pressing down on Chu Feng diminished considerably.
"Haha, that's more like it! When I'm doing well, you're doing well!" At this, Chu Feng was overjoyed. Whether it was his provocation that worked or his inherited bloodline had strengthened on its own, at the very least he could now withstand the pressure here.
Though his bloodline had strengthened, he didn't dare hesitate. With a thought, a dragon roar rang out, and amid a wash of radiance, a massive dragon shimmering with green light appeared beneath Chu Feng's feet.
