829 Emperor Intent Starting to Awaken (1/2)
Chapter 829 - Emperor Intent Starting to Awaken
”Unfortunately, we came a bit too late….”
Zhao Feng sat in the crater with slight regret. The wisps of the remaining dragon fire were quickly fading away, but they still helped Zhao Feng's Sacred Lightning Body. If this effect was several times stronger and could last a day or two longer, it might be able to let Zhao Feng's Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body break through to the 5th level.
However, such things could not be asked for. The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had only used dragon breath to kill the Wolf Emperor.
This was the first time Zhao Feng had seen this aura of dragon fire. Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng stayed in the crater for a couple days, and Nan Gongsheng realized that the aura of dragon fire could cleanse the wicked power of the Evil God Crystal to a certain degree.
Zhao Feng multi-tasked during these two days and headed in three directions.
The first was to continue absorbing the energy from the plant part of the Sky Water Crystal Lotus in conjunction with the Wind Lightning Crystal Core in order to steadily increase his cultivation. The quality of his True Yuan was starting to approach the level of a King. Once the quality of his True Yuan was at that level, most of his other aspects such as soul-strength would surpass normal Kings.
The second direction was to use the aura of the dragon fire and the Spiritual Fruit from the Ancient Dream Realm to consolidate his Sacred Lightning Body.
The third direction was to refine, purify, and absorb the wicked power from the Soul Suppressing Stone.
The first two weren't very hard. The third wasn't very hard either, but it was very time-consuming. Luckily, Zhao Feng's mastery of the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique was still there, and it even made minor improvements after taking over another body.
The aura of dragon fire from the crater was extremely faint by the third day.
”Let's continue.”
Zhao Feng confirmed that his Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body had reached a limit. He would need a powerful stimulus to break through. He instinctively felt that the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon might be the critical point for his Sacred Lightning Body's breakthrough.
Of course, if he wanted to use the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon's dragon breath to refine his body, that was the same as courting death. Even at the peak of his previous life, he didn't have to ability to block such powerful dragon fire head-on.
Hu~~~
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng sat on the old flaming chariot and continued to follow the Black Serpent Dragon. In order to utilize the flaming chariot's fastest speed, Zhao Feng put a substandard God Crystal into it. The flaming chariot's speed instantly reached its peak, which was comparable to Peak-tier Kings.
A day later, a big hole appeared in the fields ahead.
”The aura of Destruction is becoming stronger. The Black Serpent Dragon seems to have arrived at its destination….” Zhao Feng murmured.
In reality, countless powerful beasts would have appeared on the path they took, and it was supposed to be full of danger, but the Black Serpent Dragon had opened the way for them and killed whatever stood in the way. The destructive dragon breath aura made all beings scatter. Thus, it was a lot easier for the pursuers to follow its aura.
”Zhao Feng, there seems to be many forces heading toward that direction.”
Nan Gongsheng felt that something was wrong. As they approached their destination, the chances of meeting other experts and groups became higher.
”Ancient God's Mysterious Palace?” Zhao Feng used a Soul Dao secret technique to get this information from a lone half-step King.
”Ancient God's Mysterious Palace… Ancient God!?” Nan Gongsheng's heart shook.
They were both somewhat cut off from the outside world, so they only learned this information right now. If it wasn't for Zhao Feng's sharp instinct to follow the Black Serpent Dragon, they would have missed this big fortune. When the duo wasn't plundering, they were in seclusion, so their news wasn't very good, unlike all the other forces that interacted with each other.
There were also some other elites with the same thoughts as Zhao Feng. They tried to follow the Black Serpent Dragon to take a little advantage or dig out some secrets of the Divine Illusion Dimension.
”Quickly!”
Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng realized that they might be a bit behind on the Ancient God's Mysterious Palace.
Whoosh!
The flaming chariot released a brilliant glow of green flames, and its speed now surpassed normal Peak-tier Kings.
The two soon reached an open land. Gazing down from above, the center of the land extended downward into the depths, as if it was going to devour the world.
On the other side of the crater:
”The aura of Destruction is becoming stronger and stronger. It makes my heart tremble….”
”Senior Martial Brother Jiu, should we continue?”
The group from the Nine Darkness Palace, led by Jiu Wuji and some other upper echelons, gazed down at the depths of the crater. The Nine Darkness Palace was one of the top three three-star forces of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty.
”We can only send in some elites that are willing to go in.” Jiu Wuji's tone was deep.
It was easy to imagine that the search underground would be full of danger. Those not strong enough would only be going to their deaths. If any group met the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon, they would all die for sure.
”I'll go.”
”I'll go.”
