Martial God Asura

Chapter 6676: The Elder’s Tear

“Right! Chu Feng is here as well. We targeted him, so the Netherworld God Bestowment must have dragged him into the sacred realm as well. Our Netherworld Embryos are not be strong enough, but he might be able to pull it off!” Lie Shan shot to his feet in excitement.

“Who else can I possibly be talking about?” Cang Li rolled his eyes.

The neutral elders were already accustomed to Lie Shan’s slow-wittedness.

“We need to quickly find Chu Feng and inform him about the Netherworld God Bestowment so that he can challenge the Netherworld God!” Lie Shan said.

“How do you intend to find him? We don’t have our cultivation here. We can’t even sense him,” Cang Li scoffed.

“Ah? What can we do?” Lie Shan groaned.

“Chu Feng isn’t that dumb. I’m sure he can find the Netherworld God through the summoning,” Cang Lu replied.

“What should we do then?” Lie Shan asked.

“We’ll head there as well,” Ting Yun replied.

So, the six neutral elders followed their Netherworld Embryos’ guidance and began making their way toward the Netherworld God.

Their weak Netherworld Embryos had led to their weak bodies in the sacred realm, so their movement speeds were many times slower than usual. However, they had descended at a place that was already in proximity to the Netherworld God.

After trudging across several mountains, they arrived at an empty plain.

They had lost their cultivation, but their eyes remained sharp, and there were no obstacles hindering their vision. They were able to quickly lock onto the powerful entity standing in the middle of the plain.

It was the Netherworld God!

The Netherworld God was nowhere as towering as the humongous silhouette outside—he was only a hundred meters in height, and his body was made of an aura—but his might felt more tangible and fearsome.

He felt like the dominator of this world.

Thus, the six neutral elders fell to their knees and greeted the Netherworld God, “Paying respect to the Netherworld God.”

“Look, it’s Chu Feng!” Lie Shan pointed at another mountain.

A small figure was descending from another mountain. It was indeed Chu Feng.

“How weird. Why does Chu Feng look no different from usual?” Lie Shan exclaimed in surprise.

“That means that Chu Feng’s Netherworld Embryo is strong, or rather, he has almost perfect compatibility with it,” Ting Yun replied.

“Heavens! Doesn’t that make him the first person whose age didn’t regress after entering the sacred realm?” Lie Shan exclaimed.

“Indeed.” Cang Li nodded.

“Chu Feng is truly monstrously talented,” Ting Yun remarked.

“Hold on. Look at his hand. He’s holding a token,” Lie Shan shouted.

The other neutral elders took a closer look and saw a blood-red token in Chu Feng’s grasp, but they were too far away to decipher the words on it.

As Chu Feng stepped into the plain, the token began emanating a blood-red aura.

“Shit! I get it now!” Lie Shan spat.

“What did you get?” Cang Li asked.

“How is it that Chu Feng has that token when none of us do? That token obviously has something to do with the Netherworld God. I can only think of one explanation for this. The Netherworld Sect Bestowment was fully activated not because of Jie Tianran’s talisman papers or a mistake on our part.

“It is Chu Feng! He was the one who fully activated the Netherworld God Bestowment! That is why he received that token, whereas the rest of us didn’t!” Lie Shan exclaimed.

The other five neutral elders fell silent.

The Netherworld Sect had no records about that token, but Lie Shan’s explanation made sense.

“You’re being sharp-witted for once,” Cang Li remarked.

Lie Shan was on the mark about the token.

When the Netherworld God Bestowment locked onto Chu Feng and dragged him into the illusory formation, Chu Feng sensed grave danger, but at the same time, he also realized that there was a method to overcome the danger.

It only took him moments to figure out the method, and that was to completely activate the Netherworld God Bestowment.

He knew nothing about this place beforehand, but the token he received upon entering the illusory formation provided him with thorough knowledge about it.

He learned that the treasure that had locked onto him was the Netherworld God Bestowment, that he was currently in the Netherworld Sect’s sacred realm, and the method to overcome this trial.

Due to the sacred realm limiting his cultivation, Chu Feng didn’t sense the six neutral elders hiding on top of a mountain. He made his way straight toward the Netherworld God.

As he approached the Netherworld God, the latter noticed him as well.

The moment the Netherworld God turned to look at him, his token disintegrated into a wisp of aura. At the same time, a blood-red formation manifested from beneath the Netherworld God’s feet and swiftly expanded until Chu Feng was caught inside it as well.

Under the formation’s influence, Chu Feng’s Netherworld Embryo manifested as an aura entity that was over ten meters tall. Astonishingly, the Netherworld Embryo was identical to Chu Feng.

“His Netherworld Embryo looks exactly like him! It means he is perfectly compatible with it!” Lie Shan’s lower jaw fell agape.

The other neutral elders didn’t utter a word, but their hearts were shaken.

Just then, a huge amount of energy began converging before the Netherworld God to form a sphere of red aura. The Netherworld God was about to make a move.

At the same time, the oppressive might crushing the surroundings intensified.

If Chu Feng hadn’t been protected by his Netherworld Embryo, there was no way his current body could have withstood the oppressive might.

“This is the move that the previous challengers of our Netherworld Sect have all succumbed to,” Lie Shan murmured.

Boom!

Right after he said those words, the sphere of red aura gushed toward Chu Feng, enveloping the surroundings with red light.

The red light only lasted for an instant before receding. Everything reverted to its previous state.

The six neutral elders lost their composure.

Chu Feng remained unharmed despite the previous attack. On top of that, his Netherworld Embryo had grown even larger to twenty meters.

“This is ridiculous! Not only did he withstand the attack, but he’s unharmed?” Lie Shan exclaimed.

Meanwhile, the Netherworld God continued its attack. It didn’t take long for it to dish out nine attacks, and Chu Feng withstood all of them.

Chu Feng remained perfectly composed. He wasn’t worried about failing the trial at all.

However, the six neutral elders were completely astounded.

By the time Chu Feng withstood the ninth attack, his Netherworld Embryo had already expanded to over a hundred meters tall, making it as big as the Netherworld God. While there were still some discrepancies in terms of form and might, they were the same size now.

Each attack from the Netherworld God was stronger than the previous, but Chu Feng continued to emerge unscathed from each hit. This showed just how resilient he was.

“Lie Shan, why are you crying?” Cang Li suddenly asked.

Only then did the other neutral elders notice the tears and snot on Lie Shan’s face.

“I just feel regretful. Chu Feng is a gift from heaven to our Netherworld Sect, but why does his heart not lie with us? Why does he have to be our enemy?”

The other five neutral elders fell silent. They felt the same way.
