Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 672: Chapter 673: Outer Heaven Demon! (1 more)

Three days later, the Tianyang Empire’s Envoy Team left the Imperial City, and Ling Feng’s life finally returned to tranquil peace.

Apart from his daily lessons, Ling Feng spent most of his time in the Sword Team, sparring and practicing with some teams brought by Goo Tengfeng.

As the date for the Five Academies Sword Team competition approached, Goo Tengfeng seemed to become increasingly tense.

It wasn’t just the captain, every member of the Sword Team seemed to be eagerly anticipating the start of the Five Academies Sword Team competition.

This time, the East Courtyard Sword Team could be described as well-prepared and strong; this battle would be the East Courtyard Sword Team’s fight for legitimacy.

After repeated considerations, Ling Feng ultimately decided to entrust the Infinite Sword Dao inheritance, which the Infinite Sword King had tasked him with at the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower, to Goo Tengfeng. (See ”Chapter 301: Sword Dao Inheritance”)

Although Ling Feng had originally intended to pass this swordsmanship inheritance to Ouyang Jing, that guy seemed to have settled for the status quo and lost the intense desire for power (in fact, a large part of this was due to the immense psychological shadow cast over him by Ling Feng’s defiance of the heavens).

With the Five Academies Sword Team competition drawing near, if the Infinite Sword Dao inheritance were given to Goo Tengfeng, it would also enable Goo Tengfeng to improve a certain level of strength.

Seeing Ling Feng handing over a silver ring to himself, Goo Tengfeng’s expression went through a brief moment of astonishment. When he infused his Divine Sense into the Spirit Ring, he was taken aback.

”This... this is...”

Goo Tengfeng looked at Ling Feng with a bewildered face and exclaimed, ”Ling Feng, this... this is way too precious!”

”Captain, please accept it,” Ling Feng said with a smile. ”Consider it as giving our Sword Team a greater chance to earn the right to challenge the Royal Sword Team!”

Goo Tengfeng clenched his fist, knowing well how precious a Sword Dao inheritance was and that its value simply could not be described in terms of wealth.

Moreover, the Infinite Sword Dao wasn’t any ordinary low-tier rubbish; it was a considerably high-level Sword Dao inheritance!

”I...” Seeing Ling Feng’s resolute gaze, Goo Tengfeng nodded forcefully, gripped the Spirit Ring, and said in a deep voice, ”I understand! Ling Feng, no matter what, I will stand by your side in battle!”

”Together we’ll defeat the so-called myths! The so-called legends!”

Ling Feng punched Goo Tengfeng lightly on the chest, laughed, and said, ”Alright, captain, understand it well. This is a promise I made to a predecessor, and I hope you won’t allow his swordsmanship to gather dust.”

”Absolutely not!” Goo Tengfeng gripped his fist tightly, yet couldn’t help asking, ”Ling Feng, with your Sword Dao accomplishment, you should be more than qualified to inherit this Infinite Sword Dao, right?”

”My goal is to create my own Sword Dao.”

Ling Feng practically blurted this out without a second thought.

”I am not as good as you.”

Goo Tengfeng shook his head and smiled, thankful that he was already accustomed to Ling Feng’s extraordinary talents; otherwise, he would have scoffed at Ling Feng’s claim of wanting to create his own Sword Dao.

Creating one’s own Sword Dao, how monstrously ambitious?

Since ancient times, countless talented swordsmen have aspired to create their own Sword Dao, but how many have truly succeeded?

...

Ever since Ling Feng entrusted the Infinite Sword Dao inheritance to Goo Tengfeng, the latter had ”disappeared” and, prior to leaving, handed over everything to the deputy captain, Gong Cheng, instructing him to take charge of training the team members in coordination.

A strong Sword Team not only needs individual combat strength, but also perfect cooperation, which, at the very least, can yield two hundred percent of their combat power.

In the blink of an eye, there was just half a month left until the grand competition of the Five Academy Sword Team.

On this day, a familiar guest arrived at Ling Feng’s Sky Pavilion.

Wen Tingguang!

”Brother Wen!!”

Ling Feng, dragging his weary body, entered his own Bescin. He had been sparring continuously with Lee Bufan and Jiang Xiaofan, and it was indeed a bit too much for him.

Especially Jiang Xiaofan, who was like an inexhaustible wild ox.

But the more he fought with him, the more he could stimulate the potential hidden in Jiang Xiaofan’s bloodline, allowing him to grow rapidly.

As a result, Ling Feng had become the sparring partner again.

”Yo, Brother Ling, it looks like the Sword Team’s training is pretty tough, huh?”

Wen Tingguang picked up a teacup from the table, took a sip, and smiled faintly.

”It’s okay.” Ling Feng shook his head and smiled, ”As the Five Academy Sword Team’s competition gets closer and closer, everyone is full of energy.”

”Hehe.” Wen Tingguang grinned, ”Alright, then Big Brother won’t beat around the bush. I’ve come this time with some good news! With a bit of luck, your strength might soar!”

”Oh?” Ling Feng’s eyebrows raised, ”What good news?”

”Have you heard of the God Demon Battlefield?” Wen Tingguang raised his eyebrows with a sly smile.

”The God Demon Battlefield?” Ling Feng touched his nose, that was a novel term.

”Yeah, you should have come across descriptions of the Outer Heaven Demons in some books,” Wen Tingguang said slowly.

”Outer Heaven Demons.” Ling Feng touched his nose, speaking solemnly, ”Yes, in the Ancient Era, the Outer Heaven Demons were the most terrifying enemies of this continent. These demons, descending from who knows where, nearly brought about an apocalyptic catastrophe for all the creatures of the True Spirit Continent.”

”It seems you’ve studied the history of the Empire well,” Wen Tingguang nodded, ”That’s right, the very same Outer Heaven Demons. The God Demon Battlefield is connected to them. It was the battleground where the ancient powerhouses of the olden days drove out the Outer Heaven Demons. That battle almost shattered the heavens and the earth, and after it ended, a Great Power shattered the entire plane with Divine Skills, and those scattered fragments turned into shards of shattered void.”

”The God Demon Battlefield we speak of is one of these void shards. Five hundred years ago, a Great Power from a Holy Land pulled this shard from the endless void and locked it within Outer Heaven, opening several passages, each guarded by the National Guardian Divine Sect of the Four Great Empires in the Eastern Spirit Domain.”

”Wait a minute...” Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched, ”Again with the Holy Land? Could it be the same Holy Land where Wei Wuyan resides?”

”Exactly. While the Four Great Empires may seem to command the East Spirit Domain on the surface, in reality, it’s just that the Great Powers of the Holy Land are not interested in royal authority. The existence of that Holy Land is even more ancient than the history of the Sky White Sacred Dynasty!”

As he spoke, Wen Tingguang suddenly frowned, ”Damn it, you interrupted me and now I’ve forgotten where I was.”

Ling Feng rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, ”You were saying, the Holy Land opened four passages to the God Demon Battlefield.”

”Right, right, right.” Wen Tingguang chuckled, ”In a few days, it’ll be time for the passages to open, which happens once every fifty years. Normally, the opportunity to enter the God Demon Battlefield should be given to young talents among the First Grade sects of the Sky White Empire after careful selection. However, considering how you helped Miss Lan escape the fate of being married off to the Tianyang Empire last time, the Sect Master has decided to directly give you a spot.”

”How about it, aren’t you excited?”

Wen Tingguang clapped Ling Feng on the shoulder, laughing heartily.
