Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 1656: Chapter 1657: Feeling Wronged! (Second Update)

At this moment, a figure suddenly approached. Ling Feng turned his head to see Murong Bai striding over.

This guy still looked crestfallen. It was clear that the battle on Absolute Heaven Peak had dealt him a significant blow.

”From what I know, Xu Ming and Helian Xiao have studied these two martial techniques for many years, but they’ve never shown such a sudden enlightenment as they have today. Junior Brother, you are truly extraordinary.”

Murong Bai stood still in front of Ling Feng and said with some empathy.

”It’s just a slight insight, Senior Brother overpraises me.”

Ling Feng pursed his lips and replied modestly.

”Sigh...”

Murong Bai sighed again, looked at Ling Feng, then at Tuoba Yan, and slowly said, ”Junior Brother Ling, Junior Sister Tuoba, I have some things I wish to discuss with you privately. Could I have a moment of your time?”

As he spoke, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face, as if he found it difficult to speak.

Being as smart as Ling Feng, he nodded and smiled, ”Naturally.”

Soon, the three of them went to the room assigned to Ling Feng and sat down.

Murong Bai closed the door and then slowly spoke, ”In fact, I mainly want to talk to you about the Sunset Selection. You two, apart from me and Senior Brother Shi and Brother Gu, are candidates to compete for the top ten spots. As your senior brother, I feel it’s necessary to share my insights from observing Ye Ting and the others’ battles today.”

”Many thanks to Senior Brother for that.”

Ling Feng cupped his hand towards Murong Bai in salute, considering highly of Murong Bai for sharing his experiences despite his failure.

”Sigh, it’s really shameful to admit!”

Murong Bai’s old face turned slightly red, showing an expression of utmost gravity and unspeakable reverence, stating word for word: ”Among those top-tier martial artists in the Outer Sect, you must pay attention to Ao Jue from Yunluo Sacred Land and Ye Ting from Five Thunders Sacred Land. The power of these two has become indescribable.”

”Ao Jue?”

Tuoba Yan couldn’t help but ask, ”From the jade scroll given by the Void Sky Palace Master, it seems Ao Jue was third in the last competition, with Li Yanluo ranked even higher, right?”

”That was ten years ago. Now Ao Jue has already surpassed that. However, in my view, the more formidable one might still be Ye Ting!”

Seeing Murong Bai’s serious and cautious demeanor, Ling Feng became interested in the martial tea gathering at Absolute Heaven Peak.

”Senior Brother Murong, could you roughly describe the actual situation when you sparred?”

Murong Bai revealed a bitter smile on his face, ”We did not spar.”

”Oh?”

Tuoba Yan was a bit puzzled, ”If there was no sparring, why is Senior Brother Murong so exhausted?”

”It’s truly shameful to say...”

Murong Bai sighed once more, ”At our level, no, strictly speaking, at their level of strength, even the slightest gesture causes immense destructive power. Therefore, there was no sparring.”

Before going, he was full of confidence and highly unconvinced that he was just making up numbers in Yee Changge’s eyes.

After going, he was convinced, as people like Shi Haoxuan and Ye Ting were simply beyond his level. He was indeed just making up numbers.

”Upon arriving at Absolute Heaven Peak, we compared our own auras...” Murong Bai clenched his fist, gritting his teeth and said, ”It’s just that I held on for less than a breath before I had to retreat. The reason I was overly exhausted was actually due to being countered by the backlash of the recoil...”

”This...”

Ling Feng’s mouth twitched slightly. No wonder Murong Bai looked like a sullen little wife; this was indeed quite embarrassing!

”Sigh, thinking about it now, I really overestimated myself.”

Murong Bai shook his head and continued, ”The next person to fall was Gongsun Long from the Five Thunders Sacred Land. He only lasted for ten breaths. Then it was Li Yanluo and Brother Gu, who both lasted about fifteen breaths.”

”In the end, Senior Brother Shi, Ao Jue, and Ye Ting were almost equally matched, maintaining the contest for a full fifteen minutes, with none of them falling behind!”

”Fifteen minutes!”

Tuoba Yan’s eyelids twitched. If even a powerhouse like Gu Changfeng could only last about fifteen breaths against Shi Haoxuan and those three at their peak, while the three could fiercely contest for a tea’s time, wouldn’t that mean their level had reached a height almost unattainable by ordinary people?

”Indeed, it was actually because I almost couldn’t handle it and was about to faint that they stopped. In this battle of auras, none of the three of them revealed their depth.”

Murong Bai repeatedly smiled bitterly. He had always considered himself extraordinary, but now he finally understood the gap between himself and those people.

His position as the third in East Spirit Immortal Pond was truly...

Too overwhelming to bear!

At this moment, perhaps the underlying subtext in his heart was: I never knew I was this weak!

”Sigh...”

After speaking, Murong Bai sighed heavily again, but when he raised his eyes to look at Ling Feng, he found that this guy appeared full of fervor, looking surprisingly spirited!

”Too young!”

Murong Bai shook his head, thinking if Ling Feng experienced what he did, he might be even more dejected than him.

”That way, those three in front are virtually unbeatable. Fortunately, among them is our East Spirit Immortal Pond’s Senior Brother Shi, securing one of the top ten spots.”

Murong Bai coolly analyzed, ”Then it comes to the next tier. With my strength, it seems a bit shaky, but Junior Brother Ling, you might still be hiding a lot of strength, possibly giving you a fighting chance. Plus, with Brother Gu, we might snag three of the top five spots.”

”Then it’s up to me and Junior Sister Tuoba. No matter what, we must find a way to make it into the top ten.”

Murong Bai clenched his fists tightly and said in a deep voice, ”I predict that Yee Changge’s strength might be slightly stronger than mine. Furthermore, there’s still Wang Qian, who has not yet revealed his strength. Then there’s Yuan Hua Ji, Yuee HuaQin, He Lingyun, and Zi Zhao Yan. These people are likely strong contenders for the top ten as well...”

After all the setbacks, Murong Bai finally lowered his proud head and admitted his shortcomings.

In summary, it’s difficult for East Spirit Immortal Pond to securely capture five of the top ten slots!

Ling Feng gave a light smile; what Murong Bai said was largely accurate.

However, he was destined to be the man to take the first title.

Besides, East Spirit Immortal Pond had another person whose true strength, if displayed, might blind everyone.

Yeu Linglong!

This strange power girl, once you’ve tasted her strength, you’d know how terrifying she is!

Unbelievable power is hidden within her!

After unfolding his thoughts, Murong Bai took a deep look at Ling Feng and said deeply, ”Junior Brother Ling, although you can completely defeat Lio Donglin, you may try challenging Gongsun Long from Five Thunders Sacred Land. But for the others, your odds aren’t great; try to surrender quickly to conserve strength. Moreover, if you voluntarily surrender, your Luck Dragon will only be slightly plundered, but if you are directly defeated, at least half of your Power of Destiny will be seized!”

”In this Sunset Selection, quite a few people are watching you!”

Murong Bai warned solemnly.

”Mm, I will take care.”

Ling Feng nodded slightly. Although he didn’t take it to heart, he wasn’t about to flaunt arrogance, as Murong Bai’s words were meant in good intention.

It’s just that he didn’t think it necessary to concede to anyone, even when facing Shi Haoxuan.
