"Bind!"
Suddenly, Huangfu Shengyu let out a soft shout as he formed hand seals directed straight at Chu Feng.
The next moment, two additional characters appeared on the token embedded in his chest.
In addition to "Bestow" and "Guard," the characters "Bind" had now been added.
Once the word "Bind" appeared, it transformed into a beam of light that shot forth from the token, hurtling straight toward Chu Feng.
The strike was so fast that even Chu Feng could not dodge it.
By the time he reacted, the beam had already pierced through him.
However, after this strike, Chu Feng was not injured. Instead, he felt the Asura King's power rapidly dissipating.
Chu Feng was truly reverting to his original cultivation.
"This feeling?"
"Could it be?" Chu Feng sensed something was wrong.
"You felt it?"
"Did you really think my trump card could only be called a trump card because it can bestow upon me the power of a First Order True God?"
"Now you understand how formidable it truly is?" Huangfu Shengyu gazed at Chu Feng with a smug look.
"It binds the power of my world spirit, but not the power of my martial cultivation. It seems your trump card has reached its limit," Chu Feng said.
"That's right. Thanks to you, it has indeed reached its limit."
"But without the power of your world spirit, even if you can still use martial force, what makes you think you can fight me?" Huangfu Shengyu said.
And Chu Feng noticed that as Huangfu Shengyu spoke, the layer of translucent armor dissipated.
No wonder he had been so desperate to unleash the token's final power and bind Chu Feng's world spirit force.
He had to have known that if he didn't act quickly with this last resort, and Chu Feng continued launching surprise attacks, his life would be forfeit.
"Huangfu Shengyu, I admit what you said before."
"Foundation depth has indeed helped you."
"So can you keep your word?"
"As long as I extract the opportunity of the Conquest Vein's Origin from my body, you'll let them go?" Chu Feng asked.
"Chu Feng, no!"
"Big brother, you can't!"
The moment Chu Feng spoke those words, Xian Miaomiao, Xiao Yu'er, and the others immediately objected.
They would rather die alongside Chu Feng than let him sacrifice himself for their sake.
"Brother Chu Feng, don't be foolish."
"By all rights, you already defeated him just now. It was only the token that saved his life."
"Someone like that is completely devoid of integrity," Xianhai Shaoyu said.
Crackle— A bolt of lightning flashed by, and Chu Feng vanished from where he stood.
When Chu Feng reappeared, he was behind Huangfu Shengyu.
In the span of a breath, Chu Feng simultaneously activated his Thunder Mark, Thunder Armor, Thunder Wings, and his combat power–boosting technique.
His cultivation surged from Fifth Order Half God to Eighth Order Half God.
But in truth, his combat power had already reached the Ninth Order Half God.
Coupled with his Divine Movement, his speed could surpass that of a First Order True God.
That was how he had arrived behind Huangfu Shengyu in an instant.
However, Chu Feng's sword strike failed to hit Huangfu Shengyu.
Huangfu Shengyu had blocked Chu Feng's attack with a single layer of martial force enveloping his body.
"It didn't work?"
Chu Feng's gaze grew complicated as he silently lamented the situation.
He had originally planned to catch Huangfu Shengyu off guard and launch another surprise attack.
