Chu Feng's gaze swept over them, and the Seven Realms Sacred Palace crowd once again wore expressions of terror. Few dared to meet his eyes.
Though they had long heard of Chu Feng's methods, only after witnessing him slay hundreds of millions of lives without so much as blinking did they truly grasp just what kind of terrifying existence he was.
And that very existence was someone the Seven Realms Sacred Palace had put out a warrant for.
Could they possibly survive now?
"Chu Feng, thank you."
At that moment, a familiar voice drifted from the cultivation grounds — it was Fu Xing.
When Fu Xing spoke, the Seven Realms Sacred Palace crowd turned to look at her.
From what she said, Chu Feng had really come to save them?
"I'm not here to save your Seven Realms Sacred Palace. I simply don't want my mother's palace to be destroyed."
The moment Chu Feng said this, the Seven Realms Sacred Palace crowd froze.
Though Chu Feng had given them a reason for his intervention, it also confirmed something — his slaughter of the Cloud Leopard demon tribe had not been a personal grudge. He truly had acted because they attacked this place. And in doing so, he had saved their lives.
Whoosh— Right then, Chu Feng descended from the sky and landed in front of the cultivation grounds.
"Will you let me in and preserve this defensive formation? Or shall I cleave it open with a single sword stroke and enter on my own?"
Chu Feng gripped the Demon Slaying Sword and spoke in a cold, resonant voice.
"You…"
Inside the cultivation grounds, the yellow-faced elder at the True Dragon Peak realm heard Chu Feng's brazen words and felt rage flare in his eyes, instinctively wanting to retort.
But one glance at the Demon Slaying Sword in Chu Feng's hand, and he swallowed every word that had risen to his lips. Even his furious gaze drifted away — he no longer dared look at Chu Feng directly.
The bearded elder, meanwhile, produced a command token and activated a technique. Before Chu Feng's very eyes, a grand gate swung open.
No one objected.
They all knew this defensive formation could not stop the current Chu Feng. Letting him in was the only sensible choice.
Chu Feng stepped inside, formed a hand seal, and reached out with a grab.
In an instant, an aura radiating a sacred presence surged up from the earth.
It was the power of the Divine Era — the force that had entered this realm from beyond.
Seeing this, the faces of the Seven Realms Sacred Palace crowd turned extremely ugly.
They had long known that a power had entered this place and had even tried to extract it themselves, but failed. They never imagined that something they had racked their brains trying to accomplish, Chu Feng had done with a casual wave of his hand.
Watching something so precious being taken by Chu Feng so easily, their hearts ached. But not a single person dared to stop him.
Not even the yellow-faced elder at the True Dragon Peak realm.
"What, not happy about it?"
"If you're unhappy, you're welcome to make a move on me."
After absorbing the power of the Divine Era, Chu Feng deliberately turned his gaze toward the two True Dragon Peak elders.
Whether it was the bearded elder or the yellow-faced elder, both hung their heads in silence.
But Chu Feng was not finished. He reached out with another grab, and the command token in the bearded elder's hand — the one that activated the defensive formation — flew into Chu Feng's palm.
"What my mother left behind is not something your Seven Realms Sacred Palace deserves to possess."
With those words, Chu Feng swept his great sleeve, and a fierce gale roared up from the ground. Every member of the Seven Realms Sacred Palace, regardless of their cultivation level, was blown out of the cultivation grounds like fallen leaves.
The only one who landed with any dignity was Fu Xing.
And Fu Xing knew that her graceful landing had nothing to do with her own strength. It was entirely because Chu Feng had gone easy on her.
After driving the Seven Realms Sacred Palace crowd out of the cultivation grounds, Chu Feng rose into the air and casually set up a spatial formation.
The spatial formation descended from the sky, enveloping the entire cultivation ground, and then began to merge with it.
