Martial God Asura

Chapter 6536: Suppression

“The sacred item has awakened! The sacred item has awakened! Did the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion succeed?” The Netherworld Sectmembers were overjoyed.

When the dark red aura gushed out from the sacred item, the Netherworld Sectmembers felt a calling from their Netherworld Embryos. There had to be a connection between the two. If it were possible to further evolve the Netherworld Embryo, it would be through the sacred item.

“Jie Tianran lives up to his reputation as the strongest world spiritist in the world of cultivation.” Even Cang Li, who had been guarded against Jie Tianran, had to acknowledge the latter.

The Netherworld Sect had tried many ways to awaken the sacred item, but nothing worked. While the sacred item hadn’t fully awakened yet, they could at least see hope in it now.

Jie Tianran’s voice boomed across the Undying Starfield, “Chu Feng, you exploited a slip-up from the Netherworld Sect to infiltrate my control formation, hoping to stop me from awakening the Netherworld Sect’s treasure. But this isn’t the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect. There is no entity here to enforce fairness between us. Now, you can only watch helplessly as I awaken the Netherworld Sect’s treasure. Do you understand your place now?”

He had intentionally flaunted his progress to taunt Chu Feng.

This was at odds with Jie Tianran’s character. He was a proud person, and he viewed it beneath himself to taunt others. But he had suffered so many setbacks at Chu Feng’s hands that he felt like he had to get even.

He had claimed earlier that the old entity had grown afraid of Chu Feng, but the truth was that he was the one who had grown afraid of Chu Feng. That was why he wanted to prove himself by outdoing Chu Feng here.

He had to thoroughly crush Chu Feng here to expel his inner demon and regain his confidence. This would be extremely beneficial to his future growth.

“You speak as if you have already won, Jie Tianran. I’m still here. What can you do about me?” Chu Feng said as he stood up.

Even though it might seem that the light emanating from the sacred item had trapped Chu Feng, in truth, it was protecting him. This barrier was the basis of his confidence.

“Take a good look. I’ll show you what I can do,” Jie Tianran declared.

His control formation flickered, and the barrier protecting Chu Feng began to weaken. This greatly bolstered the confidence of those from the Netherworld Sect and the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

In their view, Jie Tianran was slowly removing Chu Feng’s grasp over the sacred item.

Chu Feng even heard the mocking laughter of some Netherworld Sectmembers.

“Aren’t you celebrating too early? I’m able to tap into the sacred item’s power because I have grasped some control of it. Jie Tianran doesn’t have the power to remove my control of your sacred item. He can only unravel the barrier because he possesses greater control over the sacred item than I do at the moment. Do you think he’s truly helping you awaken your sacred item? How naive. His goal is to gain full control of the sacred item. All of you will become his puppets,” Chu Feng said.

That was the greatest worry of the Netherworld Sect at hand. None of them could laugh anymore after hearing Chu Feng’s words.

“Chu Feng, you can’t escape your crimes by driving a wedge between us. Today is the day you’re going down,” Baili Xukong declared. His words made it clear that he was standing on the side of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

“Oh?”

Chu Feng raised his hand. He dragged all the Netherworld Sect’s juniors, including Chen Hui, before him using the sacred item’s energy. “You said that I’m going down. Are you intending to forsake your people?”

Chu Feng looked at Baili Xukong.

“Chu Feng, blaspheming our sacred item is already a death sentence. If you obediently surrender, I can still consider leaving you with an intact corpse. Otherwise, we’ll kill you and everyone associated with you,” Baili Xukong said.

“I see. Chen Hui’s life must be unimportant to you. Let’s do this then.”

Chu Feng shot out a formation chain that pierced Chen Hui’s body, but the latter didn’t sustain any injuries. It was a one-sided life binding formation.

Chen Hui’s death would not affect Chu Feng, but if Chu Feng died, Chen Hui would suffer the same plight as well.

“Brother Chu Feng, we’re at least acquainted with each other, no? I-I-I-I haven’t lived long enough yet!” Chen Hui anxiously sent Chu Feng a voice transmission.

“It’s a misunderstanding, Brother Chen Hui. I don’t intend to drag you down. I’m merely using this opportunity to see how much the Netherworld Sect cares about you. If they are willing to abandon you, I suggest you stop risking your life for the Netherworld Sect and join me instead,” Chu Feng replied via voice transmission.

“That fellow named Baili Xukong is Baili Zilin’s father, as well as the leader of the new faction. He wants nothing more than our deaths. Your binding our lives together works to his advantage,” Chen Hui exclaimed.

“Don’t worry, neither of us is dying here,” Chu Feng replied.

“Chu Feng, you’re already a dead man. Stop playing such underhanded games. Why don’t you just step out and face your death like a true man?” Baili Xukong said.

He did hope for Chen Hui’s death, but he couldn’t make it too obvious.

“I’m already a dead man?”

Chu Feng pulled Chen Hui into a formation realm inside his palm before revealing a confident smirk. The Netherworld Sectmembers who didn’t know Chu Feng well might find him laughable. It was futile to threaten Baili Xukong with Chen Hui’s life.

But those familiar with Chu Feng felt their nerves becoming taut. Even Jie Tianran shuddered, as he quickly racked his brain to wonder what was off.

Chu Feng was clearly scheming something.

And indeed, Chu Feng raised his head to look at Jie Tianran. “Jie Tianran, you must think that you’re very clever to exploit my formation to reinforce your control over the Netherworld Sect’s sacred item. It does sound like the perfect plan.

“I can tell you right now that my true goal is neither to hinder the sacred item’s awakening nor to gain full control over the sacred item. I only want to borrow the sacred item’s power to suppress all of you.”

“Suppress all of us?”

The Netherworld Sectmembers were first taken aback by Chu Feng’s declaration, then they found his words utterly hilarious. How could Chu Feng even think about using their sacred item to suppress them? That was ridiculous!

Chu Feng formed a hand seal, and smiles vanished from everyone’s faces.

The sacred item emanated immense pressure that enveloped the Undying Starfield. The weaker ones didn’t suffer as huge of a backlash, but experts like Baili Xukong and the four elders seated on the platforms frowned. Some of them even let out pained groans.

All Heavenly God level cultivators and Heavenly Dragon World Spiritists felt the pressure seeping into them and crushing their bodies and souls, plunging them into unbearable pain. There was only one way to escape this pain, and that was to lower their cultivation.
