Martial God Asura

Chapter 6624: Trap

Jie Tianran’s eyes reddened, and his veins popped. He had never appeared so unseemly before. His killing intent toward Chu Feng was stronger than ever. He had had enough of being one-upped by Chu Feng whenever he accomplished something.

He couldn’t understand why this kept happening, but it maddened him.

His anger stoked the unease of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion’s elders. They dared not breathe loudly, fearing that Jie Tianran would vent his rage on them if they caught his attention at this sensitive moment.

But Jie Tianran didn’t vent his emotions. He closed his eyes instead.

When he reopened his eyes, his breathing had stabilized. It only took moments for him to get a grip on himself.

“You’re a stubborn grime that refuses to be washed away, Chu Feng, but the final victor will still be me,” Jie Tianran murmured.

...

Meanwhile, Chu Feng and the others were on their way back to the Ancestral Martial Galaxy.

An elder had noticed the changes in God’s Era through their warship’s observation formation, and he informed Chu Feng and the others right away.

Currently, Chu Feng and the others were standing before the observation formation.

When the crowd saw the contrast between Chu Feng and Jie Tianran’s figures in the phenomenon, with one looking like a god and the other a mortal, they swiftly turned to Chu Feng with heated eyes.

They thought that Chu Feng had gotten something huge from God’s Era. Otherwise, it didn’t make sense for him to appear in God’s Era’s silhouette, and in such a stunning fashion at that.

“Aren’t you a secretive one? You’re even hiding things from us now. You didn’t clue us in after doing something huge.” The Martial Cultivator Commerce Guild’s leader walked up to Chu Feng and slapped his back with a beaming smile.

The others also looked at Chu Feng excitedly. They thought that he must have done something to induce this phenomenon. They waited for him to speak up, curious to know what he had done or gotten from God’s Era.

“Big brother, could it be because you received the qualification to enter God’s Era?” Little Fishy asked.

The first thing Chu Feng did upon arriving at the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was to find the peculiar energy hidden among the power fragments. Later, he realized that the peculiar energy was actually the qualification to obtain God’s Era’s power.

Little Fishy had tried to comprehend that peculiar energy as well, but she failed.

Chu Feng succeeded, but nothing happened right away.

“It could be,” Chu Feng replied.

“God’s Era’s qualification?”

The crowd looked over with curious eyes. Chu Feng told them what happened.

“As expected of Chu Feng,” Ling Xiao remarked with a smile, even though it was just the qualification.

All of them had observed God’s Era’s power when it descended upon the Seven Realms Galaxy, but not a single one had noticed what Chu Feng saw. The chances were that Jie Tianran had also overlooked the qualification.

Otherwise, the phenomenon wouldn’t have shown Chu Feng towering over Jie Tianran.

“Our young master is truly incredible.”

The others from Seven Realms Sacred Mansion also heaped compliments on Chu Feng that came from the bottom of their hearts. They might not have joined Chu Feng on that journey, but as world spiritists, they could imagine the difficulty involved.

“Hm?”

The crowd suddenly widened their eyes.

The remaining two bundles of power rose from the palm of God’s Era’s silhouette, but they didn’t fly straight toward the Seven Realms Galaxy as the first one had.

Instead, they revolved around the silhouette erratically, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, sometimes brilliant like suns and sometimes melding into space.

“Look! Something is happening with God’s Era!”

The world spiritists on the warship immediately activated their observation-enhancing means. They instinctively understood that a secret must be hidden in the revolution of the two powers, and they wanted to do their part to help Chu Feng.

But Chu Feng turned around and returned to his room. “Don’t bother studying it. It’s a feint.”

All the world spiritists stiffened up. His words were like a pail of cold water dampening their hot-bloodedness.

“Chu Feng, could the initial part be a feint, but the secret lies in what comes after?” Ling Xiao anxiously asked.

“It’s not impossible, but based on what I have seen thus far, the chances of that happening are very low. It’s already grueling to observe these transformations, so there should be some clues woven into this as well, but I’m unable to discern anything at all. This seems to be an intentional measure to exhaust us. That’s why I don’t advise you all to waste too much time and energy on this,” Chu Feng replied before entering the palace.

Little Fishy, the guild leader, the lunatic, and even Ling Xiao followed him as well.

Most world spiritists also stopped observing the phenomenon. They had come to trust Chu Feng’s judgment after all that had happened. God’s Era appeared to be toying with those who coveted its power but lacked the capability for it.

If not for Chu Feng’s advice, they would have probably observed the phenomenon from the start to the end, wasting their time and effort.

But some continued to observe the phenomenon. It was not that they didn’t trust Chu Feng’s judgment, but they were reluctant to give up on this potential fortuitous encounter, even if it was a mirage. The odds might not be in their favor, but they still dreamt of making it big.

...

The Seven Realms Sacred Mansion had also noticed the changes in God’s Era.

A while later, Jie Tianran stopped his observation and instead tasked some elders who specialized in observation to continue.

He could tell this was a trap and didn’t want to squander more energy on it, though he told the elders to continue observing in case there were clues woven into it.

Jie Tianran intended to leave the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

“Didn’t you just command those Saint-tier elders to return to deal with your grandson?” the old entity inside Jie Tianran’s body asked.

“There is still time. I have more important things to attend to now. I won’t make it in time if I don’t go now,” Jie Tianran said as he took out a compass.
