Chapter 31. The Special Nature of the Supreme Immortal Bone, an Unmatched Existence!
The Azure Demon Python had already turned around, its eyes brimming with aggressive killing intent.
Though it could not speak in human language, it could clearly sense the heaven-shaking power contained within Chu Feng’s body.
Seeing this, Chu Feng remained calm.
BOOM!
In an instant—
A sacred white radiance burst forth from his chest, and strands of immortal aura spilled outward.
At that moment, Chu Feng activated the Supreme Immortal Bone.
In the next breath—
“Nine Domains Imperial Fist!”
His expression remained composed as he hurled a punch straight toward the Azure Demon Python.
These demonic beasts, tainted by a special substance, had become both powerful and strange.
The Azure Demon Python was in the same realm as Chu Xinghe. Yet in Chu Feng’s perception, its true combat strength was likely even slightly stronger than Chu Xinghe’s.
Of course, that was before he activated the Supreme Immortal Bone.
Ever since arriving at the Royal Hunting Grounds, Chu Feng had already discovered that when he activated the Supreme Immortal Bone, it had an extraordinarily potent effect against these demonic beasts.
Perhaps it was because of the strand of immortal aura entwined around it once it was activated.
Countless fist forces imbued with imperial might surged toward the Azure Demon Python.
At the same time, they were wrapped in supreme immortal aura, suppressing all beneath them.
Chu Feng himself had not yet arrived, yet his fist force had already descended.
Under his fierce onslaught—
The Azure Demon Python, which had just devoured Chu Xinghe and grown incomparably stronger, seemed fragile before Chu Feng at this very moment.
Its enormous body was surrounded by a strange substance, as though it could isolate everything.
Yet it could not isolate the immortal aura carried within Chu Feng’s terrifying fist force.
HISS!
Terrifying fist shadows struck the Azure Demon Python’s massive body one after another.
It let out a violent roar, clearly feeling pain.
Chu Feng did not hesitate and continued his bombardment.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred Nine Domains Imperial Fists erupted forth, almost capable of destroying heaven and earth!
The Azure Demon Python shrieked, its voice filled with fury.
Its enormous body transformed into a streak of black lightning and lunged repeatedly at Chu Feng, intending to devour him as well.
However, under Chu Feng’s Chaos Dual Pupils, which saw through all things, the Azure Demon Python’s attacks—though fierce and swift—could not harm him in the slightest.
As time passed, the Azure Demon Python remained trapped in a passive state, taking blows continuously. Yet none of its divine abilities so much as brushed against Chu Feng.
In the end—
The Azure Demon Python could no longer endure it. Its seemingly indestructible massive body was battered into ruin by Chu Feng’s fist shadows, and ominous black blood flowed from its wounds.
BOOM!!
Chu Feng threw another punch. Over a hundred fist shadows stacked together in an instant, their power terrifying beyond measure as they smashed viciously toward the Azure Demon Python’s head.
BANG!
Its enormous head exploded under the blow. Strands of immortal aura suppressed everything. The Azure Demon Python did not manage a single counterattack before it was killed outright by that punch.
“It’s over.”
Chu Feng’s gaze shifted slightly as he cast a casual glance at the Azure Demon Python.
This demonic beast was exceedingly powerful. In terms of cultivation realm alone, it was infinitely close to the peak of the Life Palace Realm.
If it had been an ordinary demonic beast at the peak of the Life Palace Realm, killing it would have been nothing noteworthy.
But this Azure Demon Python was clearly different. Tainted by that special substance, it was surrounded by an exceedingly ominous aura. Even the black blood that flowed from its wounds was eerily strange.
Fortunately, the Supreme Immortal Bone could suppress these bizarre demonic beasts effortlessly.
Chu Feng looked at the Azure Demon Python and could not help but sigh inwardly.
It was as though the Supreme Immortal Bone existed specifically to slaughter these strange demonic beasts.
If it had been a human cultivator of equal strength, Chu Feng would not have been able to kill them so easily.
At the very least, he would have needed to use one of his trump cards.
But now, he did not need to.
After killing the Azure Demon Python, Chu Feng’s gaze shifted toward another direction.
Divine light bloomed in his eyes as he determined the location of his final hunting target.
In fact, by Chu Feng’s estimation, after slaying this Azure Demon Python, his name had likely already risen into the top three.
No—perhaps even first place, standing alone without equal!
This Azure Demon Python had not been easy to deal with. Although its realm was only the Life Palace Realm, its true combat strength was comparable to the Condensing Dao Realm—terrifying beyond measure.
It was only after personally fighting it that Chu Feng realized how troublesome it was, far surpassing Chu Xinghe.
Even if Chu Xinghe had not been severely injured—indeed, even at his peak—he would not have been this Azure Demon Python’s opponent.
At best, he might have barely escaped alive from its gaping maw.
“No time to delay. I should go.”
Chu Feng’s gaze shifted. He paid no attention to the scattered corpses of demonic beasts and walked straight ahead, his expression tranquil as drifting clouds.
At this moment, if anyone could observe the entire Royal Hunting Grounds from above, they would clearly see—
Every royal prodigy who had entered was engaged in a bitter struggle!
The reason was simple: the demonic beasts were far too terrifying. Every single one possessed strength far exceeding its own cultivation realm.
Moreover, each beast was tainted with that strange substance, making them exceptionally eerie.
Even when struck in a vital spot, they would revive almost instantly within a short period of time.
They were nearly immortal and impossible to kill!
These prodigies, who had once swept across the outside world and dominated all directions, had believed that once they entered the Royal Hunting Grounds, slaughtering these demonic beasts would be as effortless as eating and drinking.
Yet reality had far exceeded their expectations.
Even so, being able to continue fighting within these grounds was already considered fortunate.
From the overall situation in the Royal Hunting Grounds, countless prodigies were already at the end of their strength, locked in desperate combat with demonic beasts. They teetered on the brink of death, as though in the next instant they would be reduced to bones and dust!
Under normal circumstances, although each Heavenly Hunt Ceremony carried a certain mortality rate, the number of prodigies who ultimately perished would never exceed twenty percent.
But judging by the current situation, the final death toll would likely far surpass that figure.
…
Outside.
At the banquet, a group of major figures from the imperial clan sat at ease, chatting and laughing.
From time to time, they cast their gazes toward the location of the command tokens, occasionally exclaiming in admiration.
After such a long period of development, the blood pillar on Chu Xinghe’s token had reached a new height—fifty zhang.
Such an achievement guaranteed at least a top-three ranking.
Chu Xinghe’s mother sat beside Prince Canghai. The two exchanged faint smiles. Their expectation for Chu Xinghe was nothing less than the championship.
With such fierce momentum, overwhelming the others, the position of champion seemed to be drawing ever closer.
In comparison, the other two seeded contenders—Chu Tianchen and Chu Mengyao—were still far behind, with their blood pillars only around thirty zhang.
An hour had already passed.
Half the time remained.
Who would ultimately claim the championship? Countless people waited eagerly, filled with curiosity.
Yet at that very moment—
Among the several hundred tokens, Chu Xinghe’s highly conspicuous token suddenly dimmed.
This scene immediately drew everyone’s attention and became the center of focus in the hall.
“Hm? Why has the Fifth Prince’s token become so dim? It seems he has suffered severe injuries!”
“How is that possible? With the Fifth Prince’s strength, what kind of demonic beast within this Heavenly Hunt Ceremony could possibly wound him so gravely?”
