Chapter 2252: Fighting Phantoms (2/2)

“Apart from me, only Suzerains and Fighting Phantoms can come in and out freely,” said the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts to Lin Feng calmly. “If you want to leave, you must become a Suzerain or a Fighting Phantom.”

“But those Suzerains have reached the peak of perfection. You won’t have the opportunity to reach the peak of perfection before fifty years, I think. And a Fighting Phantom… you’re just an emperor, if you want to win against some of the strongest Great Imperial Beasts and become the strongest one of a territory, it will be extremely difficult, as well. You’ll have to break through to the Di Qi layer first,” said the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts.

A Suzerain or a Fighting Phantom? He’s even more terrifying than I thought, thought Lin Feng. Maybe those who could go in and out freely could infiltrate the Continent of the Nine Clouds….

“How do I become a Fighting Phantom?” asked Lin Feng.

“I suggest you don’t bring about your own destruction. First, focus on breaking through to the Di Qi layer, and then you may have an opportunity,” said the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts.

“How do I become a Fighting Phantom?” Lin Feng asked again.

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts looked amused, and smiled. “You’re in a world of heroes. If you want to become a Fighting Phantom, you have to make a public announcement and say you want to become a Fighting Phantom. Then, you’ll have seven days to rest, after which you’ll fight against a terrifying amount of of beasts. As long as they are great emperors, they can fight against you, and try to kill you. After three months, if you’re not dead, you’ll become a Fighting Phantom.”

“A public announcement.” Lin Feng frowned. That was even more terrifying than the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

“Can they join hands to fight against me?” asked Lin Feng.

“They cannot. But they can fight against you one after another as they wish, without waiting,” replied the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts.

Lin Feng took a deep breath. He couldn’t fight against groups, that was obvious… however, even one-on-ones, that was incredible. Lin Feng couldn’t imagine what it would be like. Qing Hai’s Roc, Heze’s Mahoraga… such people were terrifying. They were geniuses.

“What about Great Imperial Weapons?” asked Lin Feng.

“You can’t use them,” said the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts, shaking his head. “There have been only a hundred and some Fighting Phantoms in history, less than two hundred. Only one appears every thousand years or so, and they were all great emperors. Now, they’ve become my best assistants. They replace Suzerains who die.”

“That’s dangerous,” said Lin Feng, rather annoyed.

“Of course, when someone becomes a Fighting Phantom, they have lots of advantages. I even give them the army of a whole world,” said the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts coolly.

Lin Feng’s eyes glittered and he said, “I’ll go out and think.”

“Study my seven lives properly. When you reach the top of the Di Qi layer, you can try,” said the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts calmly. He waved his hand, and Lin Feng appeared outside of the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ inner city.

Lin Feng crossed the door through which he had come in.

——

Very quickly, he arrived back where he had started. He was wondering whether Bai Yu and the others had come out or not. They had probably experienced the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ lives as well…

Fighting Phantom, a public announcement, thought Lin Feng. He had no choice. It was the only solution to leave that place. He had to become strong first, he had no choice now…

—————-

The Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds had shaken the whole Continent of the Nine Clouds. After that, things had calmed down. Many new geniuses had started springing up, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

In Hell, there was a young man called Mo Zheng. He was insane. He had no enemy at the same cultivation level. He was a successor of the Ancient Demon Clan, and one of the grandsons of the Ten Yama Courts’ kings. He was also a member of the Hell Shrine; all his social statuses were dazzling. He went to the Celestial Country alone and killed many people. He wanted to go to the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

At the same time, in the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, some geniuses were rising. In the Snow Clan, two young monarchs, a beautiful woman and a handsome young man, had appeared. It was said that they were mother and son!!!
