Chapter 151: Could Be a Yao King (1/2)

“Roar!”

Yet another deafening roar rang out and the overpowering soundwaves spread out. Chen Feng could hear the sound of buildings collapsing nearby as a result.

“Such power. Just the soundwaves could possess such gargantuan power. Just what is it?” Chen Feng could not stop himself from whispering.

Even if I disregard all else, getting hit by that soundwave alone could probably break my bones. Chen Feng continued advancing through the ground. He no longer had the courage to glide through the sky. The surrounding atmosphere was gradually becoming more eerie. Should something unexpected happen during his act of gliding through the sky, Chen Feng was not confident that he could handle it.

…

“A roar!”

“It came from up ahead.”

“Maybe Mo Ji’s group has found a treasure.”

The other three groups also heard the roaring sound. Some of the cultivators were closer to the source of the roar and were thus affected more. Those with weaker cultivation bases felt their souls trembling non-stop, seemingly on the brink of dispersing.

Despite the loud roar and the intense sensation of crisis, the cultivators instead grew excited. They increased the rate at which they were advancing. Since there was danger, they believed that a treasure would appear as well.

What a formidable yao energy! The thought suddenly appeared within Chen Feng’s mind. The thought belonged to the Purplebolt Silverlight Wyrm. As Chen Feng had imprinted a soul brand within Purplebolt’s soul, their souls were connected. As long as Chen Feng wished for it, he could clearly sense whatever the Great Yao was thinking.

With a thought, Chen Feng summoned the Great Yao out from the Longevity Tower.

Right after coming out, Purplebolt’s body expanded rapidly. It seemed as though he was stretching his body. He had been suppressed within the Longevity Tower for so long, it felt somewhat suffocating.

Purplebolt opened his jaws and inhaled. His action caused clouds to move and winds to blow as a vast amount of demonic energy was sucked into his body.

“You can refine and absorb demonic energy?” Chen Feng was slightly shocked.

“Have you not heard of the saying that yaos and demons are family?” said Purplebolt coolly as he looked at Chen Feng.

“However, this demonic energy is not pure. There are other things mixed in. Could it have seeped out from the Demon Plane?” said Purplebolt as he inspected their surroundings. His powerful energy, the energy of a Great Yao spread out into their surroundings. Chen Feng himself could feel the mighty and majestic atmosphere spreading outwards.

This wyrm has quite the imposing presence. I wonder if he can evolve into a dragon in the future?

Chen Feng knew that this Great Yao before him can at best only be called a wyrm. Its common association with dragons was just a form of compliment.

Snake, python, wyrm, dragon.

In order for a snake to successfully transform into a real dragon, it would have to undergo who knows how many fortuitous, Heaven-defying encounters. Successfully transforming into a dragon was truly the equivalent of a carp vaulting through the dragon gate. Rising into Heaven with a single bound, it could then rock the world with a single wave of its hand and go unchallenged throughout the Nine Heavens. It could even devour the sky and shatter the earth.

A dragon was the equivalent of an immortal.

Every part of Purplebolt’s silvery-white body shone and he even possessed an inborn horn. However, the difficulty involved for him to transform into a dragon was harder than soaring up to the sky.

As Purplebolt was stretching himself while extending his aura forward, another deafening roar came from the distance.

Swoosh!

Instantly, Purplebolt shrank. Like a shocked little snake, it hastily arrived beside Chen Feng, its silvery-white tail swaying about constantly. A deep look of fear could be seen upon its face.

“A Yao King! This is a Yao King’s aura! Hurry, put me back into the tower,” Purplebolt hurriedly said.

“What? A Yao King? Are you sure you are not mistaken?” Chen Feng exclaimed.

“Never. That is definitely a Yao King. This aura is something that only a Yao King can exude. In our Yao family, superiors possess a soul deterring effect towards their inferiors. In the face of such a senior, I won’t even be able to raise my head, much less attack. Young Master, Young Lord! My Liege! Let’s just run away! Just spending a little more time within this aura is incredibly difficult for me.” There was dread within Purplebolt’s voice. Chen Feng could sense it. Purplebolt was not faking it.

“A Yao King. If this aura is from a human cultivator, what stage would the cultivator be at?” asked Chen Feng after some consideration.

“At the very least, Human Immortal,” replied Purplebolt.

“Human Immortal,” Chen Feng murmured.

“I think, if there is really a Human Immortal there who wants to kill us, running away from Demon Soul Valley will be useless for us. Besides, I don’t think Mo Ji came here to die. I will still move forward to check it out. If you are afraid, just hide inside the Longevity Tower. Even if the other party is really a Yao King, it should not be able to casually discover you.” After saying that, Chen Feng summoned Purplebolt back into the Longevity Tower.

Despite his calm front, Chen Feng’s heart was hardly calm. He was just a Concealed stage cultivator. If a Human Immortal were to appear before him, that Human Immortal would surely be capable of examining everything about him.

However, his curiosity made it so he could not retreat. Even if there was a Yao King or a Human Immortal in front, even if there was a Demon King up front, Chen Feng had to go have a look. Moreover, he had yet to find any Soulguard Flowers.
