Chapter 35. Tainted by the Special Substance, Confronting Divine Abilities Head-On!
“Roar…”
After imprisoning Chu Mengyao, the withered-bone fiend turned its massive body directly toward Chu Feng.
From within its hollow eye sockets, Chu Feng could clearly sense its extreme greed.
Seeing this—
Chu Feng no longer remained where he stood. Instead, he walked calmly toward the fiend.
If he slew this withered-bone fiend, the championship would be his for the taking. No one would be able to snatch it away.
“ROAR!”
The withered-bone fiend strode through the air, its body growing ever more colossal as it looked down upon Chu Feng from above, already regarding him as prey laid upon a plate.
That overwhelming demonic aura swept across everything. A shroud of darkness descended upon the land.
It was as though heaven and earth within a radius of ten thousand li were enveloped by it.
At this moment, a pure white divine radiance blossomed from Chu Feng’s chest as the Supreme Immortal Bone was fully activated.
With every movement, he resembled an immortal descended to the mortal world, bearing an otherworldly aura.
“Nine Domains Imperial Fist!”
Chu Feng’s expression remained tranquil as he threw a punch. Countless fist shadows erupted, covering the sky and earth.
Imperial killing intent shot forth!
Combined with the Supreme Immortal Bone, this Nine Domains Imperial Fist possessed unmatched might, capable of piercing through all things.
On the other side, trapped within the cage, Chu Mengyao’s eyes widened slightly.
“This is Chu Feng?”
She was astonished. Was he not said to be a wastrel, neglecting cultivation and ranking at the very bottom among the princes—weak and insignificant?
Yet with this single move, the momentum was vast and terrifying. The power of that punch seemed capable of tearing through heaven and earth.
With a furious roar, the withered-bone fiend lunged forward viciously.
It displayed no divine ability at all, choosing instead to confront Chu Feng’s punch head-on.
BOOM!
Countless terrifying fist shadows struck its body, producing earth-shaking explosions, like a towering mountain being hammered by immense force.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Immediately afterward came the sound of metal colliding.
Chu Feng’s Nine Domains Imperial Fist had not inflicted the slightest damage upon the fiend.
“So strong?” Chu Feng’s expression did not change. The fiend’s aura was far too terrifying, far beyond any demonic beast he had previously encountered.
Compared to the Azure Demon Python, this withered-bone fiend was worlds apart.
ROAR!
With a thunderous bellow, the faint blue soul flames within the fiend’s hollow eye sockets shot out like two sharp arrows.
Whoosh!
The two terrifying arrows were so fast they seemed to transcend space and time—once released, they appeared destined to strike their target.
This ferocious attack caused Chu Mengyao, inside the cage, to grow even paler.
Fear flickered in her eyes.
She had possessed a life-saving treasure.
Yet it had been shattered directly by this very divine ability of the fiend.
It could not be dodged—only endured.
“It’s over…”
Her heart sank.
Chu Feng’s strength had already shocked her. It seemed he had been concealing his abilities all along, waiting for today to soar.
But unfortunately, without this fiend, perhaps he truly might have contended for the championship.
However, the existence of this fiend had already surpassed the limits of what any prodigy could handle.
It was an entity beyond resistance.
Despair filled Chu Mengyao’s heart as she watched the soul-flame arrows lock onto Chu Feng, leaving him nowhere to escape.
At this moment—
Chu Feng remained completely composed.
As his Chaos Dual Pupils opened, chaotic energy wrapped around his body, making him resemble a being born of chaos—mysterious and impossible to grasp.
Within his Chaos Dual Pupils, every attack evolved into glimpses of the future.
Just as the fiend’s divine ability was about to strike him—
His figure shifted slightly. Like lightning, he pulled away, appearing a hundred zhang away in an instant.
BOOM!!
At the same time, the place where Chu Feng had stood exploded into a massive crater nearly one hundred meters deep. The power was terrifying.
It was difficult to imagine—had that divine ability struck him directly, he would likely have been annihilated in both body and soul.
“Void Divine Martial Seal!”
Chu Feng spoke calmly. He spread his palm, and a divine seal condensed from the void shot forth abruptly.
Kill!
In an instant, it blasted toward the rear of the withered-bone fiend.
The fiend had clearly not expected Chu Feng to evade that divine ability. Its body paused for the briefest moment.
In that fleeting instant, the divine seal struck squarely against its body.
ROAR!
The fiend let out a furious howl. It had no time even to defend. Many of the bones on its back were blasted away, and countless human skulls shattered.
A careful count would reveal that more than thirty skulls had been destroyed.
Its aura weakened noticeably.
“So it isn’t that hard to kill.”
Chu Feng remained composed as he executed the Cloud Dragon Escape, twisting and soaring like a divine dragon amidst the clouds.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the fiend’s flank, a hundred zhang away.
“Nine Domains Imperial Fist!”
Countless fist shadows reappeared, blotting out the sky. The killing intent was invincible!
Chu Feng launched attack after attack in rapid succession, his ferocity so overwhelming that even the fiend struggled to react!
Crash!
Soon, many more bones fell from the fiend’s body, and its aura weakened further.
“ROAR!”
Yet the withered-bone fiend showed no sign of panic. Standing in the void, it threw its head back and roared.
A surge of demonic might rose into the heavens. The earth trembled. Its roar sounded like an ancient incantation, as though invoking something unknown.
Inside the cage, Chu Mengyao immediately cried out, “Quick! Stop it! This fiend is extremely strange—undying and unkillable! No matter how much you shatter its body, the fallen bones will instantly reassemble!”
Hearing this—
Chu Feng replied unhurriedly, “Reassemble? I doubt it.”
He possessed the Supreme Immortal Bone. Every punch and palm strike carried sharp immortal aura—sacred and pure—causing the special substance within these strange beings to dissipate directly.
Reassembly was clearly impossible.
Inside the cage, Chu Mengyao froze for a moment, then revealed an expression of utter disbelief.
What was he doing? At a life-and-death juncture like this, how could he remain so arrogant?
She had offered a warning out of goodwill, yet he seemed completely unconcerned!
Frustration welled up within her. At this moment, she desperately hoped Chu Feng would win.
If he died, she would undoubtedly follow.
“You—”
She gritted her teeth, about to say more—
When suddenly—
From the ground, countless withered bones rose once again, surging toward the fiend’s body as if to reassemble it back to its peak state.
However, when those bones reached its body, they did not immediately fuse.
Instead, they began to tremble violently, as though repelled by a special divine force, unable to gather together.
“Mm? How could this be?”
Chu Mengyao was utterly stunned.
She herself had possessed certain trump cards and had once shattered this fiend’s body.
The life-saving treasure she carried had been powerful enough to erase a Condensing Dao Realm being in an instant.
This fiend had also been shattered by her at that time.
Yet it had quickly reassembled and returned to its peak state.
