Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

Chapter 425: Chapter 424: 4 Peng Kings

”It’s time to go all out.” Seeing the Crocodile King unleash its full power, a glint flashed in Ling Fei’s eyes. His backward-flying body suddenly stabilized, and he immediately injected the Blood Qi from within him into the Treasure Sword. The next moment, his body flashed, streaking across the Void like a meteor as he thrust toward the giant crocodile ahead.

Ling Fei’s heart and sword became one. The Dragon Qi in his body erupted, making him like a raging dragon as he charged the Crocodile King with his Spirit Sword.

BANG!

From a distance, a Sword Rainbow streaked across the Void. Its speed was extreme, so fast that it even stunned the Crocodile King for a moment.

’How did he get so fast? Wasn’t he injured?’ The Crocodile King was astonished, and its Heart Spirit carefully scanned him.

’His aura has grown stronger, too.’ With a brief scan, it discovered that Ling Fei’s aura was indeed strengthening.

’This is bad...’ The Crocodile King quickly realized something was wrong.

But before it could react, the sword light had already clashed with its descending giant palm.

BANG!

The sword light flashed, piercing straight through the giant palm the Crocodile King had manifested.

The next moment, the sword light pressed its advantage and shot toward the Crocodile King’s main body. The earlier clash hadn’t affected Ling Fei’s momentum in the slightest.

’So fast! Such a powerful strike!’ The Crocodile King’s face was a mask of shock, and waves of turmoil crashed within its heart.

This sword strike from Ling Fei was immeasurably stronger than the one he had used in his battle against Xu Zitao.

After all, in his fight against Xu Zitao, Ling Fei had only used a top-tier Spirit Sword.

This time, however, he was using a Profound Spirit Treasure. His combat power had clearly increased by thirty percent; one could only imagine how powerful this strike was.

How could the Crocodile King, which lacked a Profound Spirit Treasure of its own, possibly contend with Ling Fei?

’Retreat!’ When the giant palm created by its Divine Technique was shattered, a thought flashed through the Crocodile King’s mind, and it decided to withdraw.

”Thinking of retreating now? Too late!” Just as the Crocodile King prepared to withdraw, a low voice came from Ling Fei’s lips.

AOWOOO!

The next moment, a dragon’s cry rang out, shaking the heavens and the earth.

As the cry sounded, invisible sonic waves instantly invaded the mind of the Crocodile King before him.

’A dragon’s cry?!’ As the sound reached it, the Crocodile King’s soul trembled. It felt a suppressive pressure originating from its very bloodline.

Just as its soul trembled, the dragon’s cry invaded its mind.

The sonic waves invaded its mind, immediately creating a storm within it. Its soul felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and its Heart Spirit froze.

In the instant its Heart Spirit froze, Ling Fei’s Long Sword flashed and pierced the Crocodile King’s head. The terrifying Power unleashed from the blade raged out, causing the beast’s head to explode.

”AHHH! AHHH!” As its body exploded, a shocking shockwave swept out. But amidst it, the Crocodile King’s roar could still be heard.

It was its Nascent Soul that had escaped, and it was letting out a piercing wail.

It was a miniature Crocodile King, about a foot long, seemingly formed from condensed black Essence Qi.

An astonishing Power radiated from its body.

’The Nascent Soul!’ Seeing this, a glint flashed in Ling Fei’s eyes. He spun around and attacked again.

Celestial River Sword!

SWISH! SWISH!

Ling Fei attacked relentlessly, unleashing one Celestial River Slash after another, enveloping the Crocodile King’s Nascent Soul.

BANG!

Caught in the Sword Aura, the Crocodile King had no time to retaliate before its Nascent Soul was torn to shreds by the streams of Sword Qi.

And just like that, a Crocodile King of the Nascent Soul Realm had fallen.

Even at the moment of its death, it was utterly shocked.

This human clearly had not reached the Nascent Soul Realm, yet he had displayed such astonishing Power. How could it not be shocked?

Unfortunately, with its Nascent Soul annihilated, it was now truly and completely dead.

The nearby Quasi-Nascent Soul Realm Ancient Crocodiles were filled with terror, all of them retreating, not daring to step forward.

Elsewhere, Lian Shuang’s sword strikes were fierce, forcing the other Crocodile King into a constant retreat.

Shangguan Wan’Er was surrounded by numerous Ancient Crocodiles, but having already stepped into the Half-step Nascent Soul Realm, her strength had also increased immensely.

’First, I’ll help kill that Crocodile King.’ Ling Fei’s gaze sharpened, and he decided to assist Lian Shuang in killing the other one.

Only by killing the Crocodile Kings could they leave this place safely.

SCREE!

Just as Ling Fei was about to help Lian Shuang, a shrill cry rang out. His gaze shifted toward the sound, and he saw a flock of black-feathered Pengs with a dark sheen flying toward the North Spirit Ancient River. Their wings were spread wide, and a quick count revealed nearly five hundred of them in the distant Void.

”Hundreds of Demon Pengs!”

”This is bad! Four of them are at the Nascent Soul Realm!” Suddenly, Ling Fei’s expression grew solemn, and he sent a telepathic message to Lian Shuang and Shangguan Wan’Er.

Four Great Pengs at the Nascent Soul Realm flew at the forefront. Their wingspans were a hundred meters wide, and their enormous bodies were a shocking sight to behold.

”Four Great Pengs at the Nascent Soul Realm?” Lian Shuang’s expression also grew heavy, her face showing deep concern.

At that moment, the Crocodile King she was fighting flashed and retreated repeatedly, clearly intending to wait for the four Great Pengs to arrive before attacking together.

”That foolish Winged Crocodile couldn’t even handle a single Quasi-Nascent Soul Realm human.” The four black Great Pengs flew in and stopped about eight hundred meters from Ling Fei. The one with the most powerful aura among them stared ahead with cold, bell-like eyes.

”That human seems very strong,” a Great Peng King beside it said. ”That roar just now was like a dragon’s cry, utterly soul-shaking. The Winged Crocodile King must have had its soul stunned, allowing the human to kill it in a single move. We can’t be careless. If our souls are stunned, the consequences will be unthinkable.”

”Mm.” All four Great Peng Kings nodded.

”We’ll attack with Divine Techniques from a distance and wear these humans down.”

They had all reached the Nascent Soul Realm and possessed high intelligence. Naturally, they weren’t foolish enough to charge in blindly.

”That’s right. As long as we kill them, we can get their Plaques and enter the core area. There, we’ll not only be able to absorb denser Heaven and Earth Qi to cultivate, but we might also have the chance to obtain a wisp of the Peng Ancestor’s Essence Qi. If that happens, we could advance even further, perhaps even gaining the ability to take human form!”

At this last thought, all four Great Pengs grew extremely excited.

If they could obtain the Peng Ancestor’s Essence Qi, even a single wisp would allow them to continuously evolve.

”Then, let the killing begin!” the lead Great Peng said in a sinister tone.

”Alright!” Immediately, a glint flashed in the eyes of the four Great Pengs. A dark light flickered on their outstretched wings as mystical patterns began to spread across them.

WHOOSH!

The four Great Pengs extended their wings, which sliced through the Void like sharp blades as they swept horizontally toward Ling Fei and his two companions.

When four Nascent Soul Realm Great Pengs attacked, the momentum of their giant, sweeping wings was immense. Each strike was powerful enough to crush an ordinary Cultivator.

The nearby Ancient Crocodiles scattered and fled, not daring to linger. They knew they could not withstand the shockwaves from an attack by a Nascent Soul Realm existence.

Four pairs of Peng Wings swept toward them, kicking up a hurricane. The terrifying fluctuations of power caused even Ling Fei to frown.

”Yiyi!” Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit plunged into the Dragon Bone Space, intending to awaken Yiyi to help him fight.

Otherwise, it would be nearly impossible for them to escape from four Nascent Soul Realm Great Pengs and the remaining Crocodile King.

But inside the Dragon Bone Space, Yiyi was still deep in slumber. Its body was wreathed in five-colored Light Patterns, and it seemed to be in the final stages of restoration, about to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

’No response?’ This made Ling Fei frown.

’I’ll have to risk it all!’ At this point, Ling Fei could no longer wait for Yiyi. He had no choice but to give it his all and face this perilous situation himself.
