Chapter 177: Chapter 178: Crisis! (1st Update) (Please Favorite, Tip, and Recommend)

"I never expected you to come willingly," he mocked, "but I bet you also never expected that I have a Spiritual Artifact capable of blocking space in my hands."

"I had countless plans to lure you out."

"Now that you’ve delivered yourself to me, the Emperor of Fertility’s stele is ours!"

Cheng Tiangong laughed as he looked at Chu Fengmian.

He and Chu Ning had many schemes to acquire Chu Fengmian’s Emperor of Fertility’s stele.

Whoever obtained the stele could gain the Emperor of Fertility’s treasure, but the greatest treasure of the Emperor of Fertility was not its immense wealth.

Instead, it was an inheritance.

An inheritance from the Emperor of Fertility himself.

As the founding monarch of the Wusheng Kingdom, the Emperor of Fertility’s strength transcended that of even Saints. Only the one who gained his inheritance could claim the truest treasure.

This stele was connected to the Emperor of Fertility’s inheritance.

"With the stele in your hands, it’s nothing but a wasted treasure. Hand it over! You are unworthy of inheriting the Emperor of Fertility’s legacy!"

Chu Ning roared, and in an instant, his fist smashed forward.

With this punch, space itself vibrated, showing a terrifying power close to that of Divine Power.

Saints who reached the Divine Power realm could understand the laws of space and shatter it.

Although Chu Ning’s punch didn’t break the space, it was enough to make it tremble.

This meant his strength was close to reaching the pinnacle of the Yu Feng realm.

Such strength could easily cross fifty levels on the path to heaven.

"Phantom!"

The sharpness of this punch was not something Chu Fengmian could withstand now.

His figure flickered, activating the Phantom movement technique, moving through the forest below, hoping to hide within it.

"It’s useless, this area is sealed by the Sealing Heaven Divine Map. Unless you have reached the pinnacle of Yu Feng realm, no one can escape!"

Cheng Tiangong laughed loudly as he watched Chu Fengmian’s movement.

"Just hand over the Emperor of Fertility’s stele obediently. If you make me feel a bit better, maybe I’ll spare your life and make you our servant."

Cheng Tiangong’s words came out very quickly, each word seemingly imbued with a terrifying Spiritual Power that unsettled the listener.

"Heavenly Drum Thunder Sound!"

The Cultivation Technique practiced by Cheng Tiangong was an extremely special sound technique, capable of incorporating Spiritual Power within spoken words.

A slight misstep could shatter one’s spirit, causing the loss of their martial ambition and halting any further progress in their cultivation realm.

"Dragon Battle in the Field!"

Facing the assault of Heavenly Drum Thunder Sound, Chu Fengmian roared, and a pure Dragon Roar escaped from his lips.

This Dragon Roar was so refined that it was many times purer than that of a Jiao Dragon’s Roar.

Under this Dragon Roar, the damage from the Heavenly Drum Thunder Sound got instantly shattered.

"What Cultivation Technique has this kid practiced to break my Heavenly Drum Thunder Sound with just a Dragon Roar?"

Cheng Tiangong furrowed his brows and a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

"This kid’s technique is the bane of mine; if I don’t kill him today, he will surely become a great threat to me eventually!"

"Brother Cheng, don’t worry, this kid will definitely die today!"

Chu Ning coldly chuckled, his body flickered, turning into a light that chased after Chu Fengmian below.

Within a few breaths, Chu Ning had already chased right behind Chu Fengmian.

When it came to movement techniques, Chu Ning’s method was definitely no match for Chu Fengmian’s Phantom technique.

However, within the small area divided by the Sealing Heaven Divine Map, Chu Fengmian’s movement technique simply could not be fully exhibited.

In such a small area, even if Chu Fengmian tried to escape, he would ultimately be caught by Chu Ning.

"Cang Dominance Fist!"

Spiritual Power surged around Chu Ning, and suddenly a punch smashed forth.

This move, Cang Dominance Fist, was one of the compulsory martial arts techniques for the Chu family disciples. Chu Beige had also once executed this punch.

But compared to Chu Ning’s current power, the force of these two punches was starkly different.

The Cang Dominance Fist, as thrown by Chu Ning, carried an emperors dominating force in its momentum.

A suffocating pressure suddenly enveloped Chu Fengmian.

"What a terrifying punch, is this the real strength of a Chu family disciple?"

Chu Fengmian watched Chu Ning, his expression changing.

The Chu family’s reputation as one of the four great families of the Warrior Victory Academy wasn’t based merely on their heritage.

Compared to Chu Ning, the likes of Chu Beige and Chu Qianjue simply didn’t measure up.

"Red Flame!"

Chu Fengmian roared inwardly, and the Red Flame Sword appeared in his palm, slashing fiercely against that punch.

Facing Chu Ning, Chu Fengmian dared not hold back any longer.

The blade of the Red Flame Sword gathered flames, and with the emission of the Sword Qi, it resembled a towering sea of fire.

This sea of fire, although at a disadvantage against Chu Ning’s punch, temporarily held off his attack.

It gave Chu Fengmian a chance to find an opening, and with a flash, he dodged the punch.

"Red Flame Sword?"

Chu Ning, noticing the long sword in Chu Fengmian’s hands, showed a hint of surprise.

"You have quite a few good items on you, the Red Flame Sword, one of the three Divine Weapons of the Candle Flame Sect, is also in your hands!"

"But soon, once I’ve killed you, this Red Flame Sword will belong to us!"

Chu Ning laughed loudly, launching another punch.

Chu Ning’s Spiritual Power was so robust that each punch smashed violently towards Chu Fengmian.

"Not good!"

Han Yueli, who was nearby, suddenly exclaimed in shock upon seeing this scene.

Under such pursuit, Chu Fengmian wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer and would soon be defeated.

Her exclamation instantly caught Chu Ning’s attention.

"So there’s someone else? It seems you’re with this brat. Well then, since this boy keeps running around, I’ll kill you first!"

Chu Ning laughed loud, no longer paying attention to Chu Fengmian, and charged directly towards where Han Yueli was.

"Die!"

In an instant, another punch was thrown, its power comparable to the eighth level of Divine Sea realm, something Han Yueli couldn’t possibly withstand.

"This is bad!"

Chu Fengmian’s expression changed, Han Yueli was also trapped in this space by the Sealing Heaven Divine Map, unable to escape.

If Chu Fengmian himself could not withstand the punch, and could only flee, Han Yueli’s chances of resisting were even slimmer.

"Sword Intent Peak, Sword is Limitless!"

Chu Fengmian coldly articulated two words from his mouth.

His aura, drastically different from just a moment ago, was now the strongest Sword Intent he could wield.

"Slash!"
