Martial God Asura

Chapter 6718: Entering Heavenly God Level

Countless realms floated in the vast world of cultivation. Each one emanated a faint light, but they were nowhere near enough to light up the vastness of space. Darkness was the dominant color in endless space.

Yet, space was being overwhelmed by nine-colored lightning at this very moment.

Jie Tianran stood still on the spot, staring at the blinding nine-colored lightning around him. His face was twisted, and his cheeks were twitching. His eyes reflected unprecedented shock.

The world of cultivation was believed to be boundless, but it oddly looked finite when nine-colored lightning filled its entire space.

“Something is wrong, Jie Tianran. That nine-colored lightning carries your grandson’s aura!” the old entity inside Jie Tianran’s body remarked nervously.

“Is that little bastard still alive?” Jie Tianran voiced out his deepest worry.

“Not only so, but he also seems to have made a breakthrough as well. This is the phenomenon that appears whenever he makes a breakthrough in his cultivation. Xianhai Yu’er’s breakthrough induced a phenomenon that enveloped a galaxy. This phenomenon is only stronger than that of Xianhai Yu’er’s. If your grandson has reached Heavenly God level, he might be even stronger than Xianhai Yu’er,” the old entity said.

“Hmph. There’s nothing to fear if that’s all there is to it. My spirit power is comparable to rank seven Heavenly Dragon. Someone who has just reached Heavenly God level can’t be a match for me, unless he can raise his cultivation by six ranks,” Jie Tianran sneered.

“Most prodigies can only raise their cultivation by a rank at Heavenly God level. Even the most talented ones can only raise their cultivation by three ranks. Six ranks? That is unheard of. It is unthinkable,” the old entity said. “But what if he doesn’t stop at rank one Heavenly God? What if he advances straight to rank two or even rank three?”

Jie Tianran frowned. He still wouldn’t fear Chu Feng if he had only reached rank two Heavenly God level, but considering Chu Feng’s means, he couldn’t say the same if he reached rank three.

...

Meanwhile, inside God’s Era, Eggy had already returned to her World Spirit Space. Chu Feng was still lingering outside the palace, but his consciousness had entered his dantian world.

He was standing before the two lightning beasts. They didn’t feel as distant as before, especially now that he had a deeper understanding of them.

“I’m surprised, Chu Feng. While I didn’t think you would face any trouble reaching Heavenly God level, I didn’t expect you to accomplish it so easily. Your solid foundation has served you well. You can thank us for that hahaha!” The red lightning beast laughed heartily.

Chu Feng was overjoyed as well. While he had already experienced the power of a Heavenly God through the Monster Slayer Sword and the blue aura, those were external means. It wasn’t the same as wielding his own power.

“Elders, I wouldn’t have been able to reach this level without your help. Thank you.” Chu Feng bowed respectfully.

“Now that you know that your Heavenly Lightning Bloodline is at Imperial God Tier, do you feel that we aren’t of any help to you?”

Chu Feng quickly replied, “Elder, I have never thought that. If anything, I owe you a lot. You have saved me many times. If not for your backing, those who seek to plunder my bloodline would have succeeded a long time ago. I am extremely grateful for your protection.”

He meant those words from the bottom of his heart.

The two lightning beasts nodded, particularly the red lightning beast. It had been watching Chu Feng’s journey and thus understood his character.

However, it chose to maintain some distance, remarking, “Chu Feng, don’t think we’ll help you just because you utter some nice words. I stand by my words. Your bloodline might be strong, but it’s all for naught if you aren’t strong enough to exert its true strength. You need to advance a step at a time steadily. Without a solid foundation, you’ll never reach the peak of the world of cultivation. We’re looking for someone who can do that.

“What awaits you outside is our final trial for you. If you can clear this trial, we’ll divulge our background to you. It’ll allow you to grow even faster when you enter the Ninth Galaxy. If you can’t clear this trial, our support for you will end here. You’ll have to do it on your own from now on.”

Right after the red lightning beast said those words, Eggy raged, “What do you mean by trial? Aren’t you just putting us in a spot?!”

“It’s fine, Eggy. It’s just a Jie Tianran. I’ll slaughter him,” Chu Feng replied calmly.

He had always believed that he could defeat Jie Tianran by himself, which was why he was unfazed when the lightning beasts refused to offer more support to him. Excitement, along with anger, blazed in Chu Feng’s eyes.

“Jie Tianran, it’s time to put an end to our grudge.”

...

Jie Tianran had barely regained his composure when his eyes began quivering anxiously once more.

He noticed that God’s Era’s second gate and third gate had disappeared. Only the first gate remained, but it had receded into God’s Era’s silhouette and turned transparent.

He saw countless figures standing inside the gate—the Netherworld Sect’s army. They were safe and sound, and those who had suffered injuries were all healed up.

Boom!

The nine-colored lightning crackled thunderously, and the surrounding space quaked as if an army of a billion lightning soldiers were marching through the area. The nine-colored lightning had begun converging toward where Jie Tianran was.

Boom!

A nine-colored lightning bolt raced toward God’s Era’s silhouette.

It was so blinding that Jie Tianran had to close his eyes. The ensuing explosion was so loud that it made his ears ring.

When the lightning and ringing finally faded, Jie Tianran hurriedly opened his eyes, only for his pupils to narrow, his mouth to fall agape, and his breathing to hasten. His legs caved in, and he nearly fell on his bottom.

Chu Feng had reappeared in his line of sight, but that was not all. He was sitting on the golden throne, looking at him as if he was a fool being played like a fiddle. The area around the throne was cloaked in nine-colored lightning.

Jie Tianran couldn’t believe his eyes. He sweated profusely despite the coldness of space.

“Could it be that he...”

Despite his disbelief, the facts were laid before his eyes. God’s Era’s aura had assimilated into Chu Feng, and the two had become one. Chu Feng had attained the power of God’s Era.

“He succeeded? Jie Tianran, you fool! You paved the way for your grandson! He only cleared the trial, obtained God’s Era’s final power, and made a breakthrough to Heavenly God level because you dragged him into the first gate!” the old entity inside Jie Tianran’s body roared.

The Netherworld Sectmembers also witnessed the scene.

“Our young master has advanced to Heavenly God level! That’s why we are still alive. He must have cleared God’s Era’s trial!”

They had thought that they were doomed, but in a twist of fate, they had survived the ordeal, and Chu Feng had obtained God’s Era’s final power. This surprise made them lose control of their emotions.

“Impossible! Impossible! There’s no way you could have obtained God’s Era’s final power. It must be a lie. Chu Feng, don’t think that you can fool me like that! I won’t be duped so easily!” Jie Tianran roared as he swung his Demon Slayer Saber at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng did not attempt to dodge the attack, knowing that his safety was guaranteed here.

As expected, the attack unraveled the moment it came into contact with God’s Era’s silhouette. It was unable to breach God’s Era’s defenses.

“How is this possible?” Jie Tianran lost his spirit.

He had been harboring a final sliver of hope that Chu Feng was just putting on a strong front, but he completely lost it the moment he saw God’s Era’s silhouette protecting Chu Feng.

“You still don’t get it, Jie Tianran? Despite having devoted yourself to pursuing God’s Era, you still haven’t figured out what it is? Are you unable to see through it, or are you simply unwilling to face the truth?” Chu Feng looked at Jie Tianran with a mocking gaze.

Even his voice sounded divine, which further confirmed that he had become one with God’s Era.

Jie Tianran’s lips twitched uncontrollably. He had a bad feeling about this, but he still asked, “What do you mean?”

“Jie Tianran, you thought that my father was lowly and unworthy of my mother. That’s why you were so determined to kill my father and me. Let me tell you now that the power you have been pursuing thus far, God’s Era’s final power, is none other than the Heavenly Bloodline inside me.”

The nine-colored lightning around Chu Feng descended from the golden throne, and its brilliance inundated the surroundings once more.

God’s Era’s silhouette morphed into an imposing giant, who, like Chu Feng, looked upon Jie Tianran in contempt.
