Chapter 255: Chapter 256: Relentless Suppression (4th Update) (Please Bookmark, Tip, and Recommend)

This scene.

It was as if an ant were being toyed with in the palm of a powerful being, Chu Fengmian was now the true powerhouse.

Even Zhi Lingtian, the Crown Prince, couldn’t escape from Chu Fengmian’s grasp.

This is what a true genius, a true powerhouse looks like, compared to Chu Fengmian, Zhi Lingtian is simply nothing, now being ruthlessly trampled under Chu Fengmian’s feet.

"Ah!"

Captured by a single palm, Zhi Lingtian roared frantically, his spiritual power driven to the limit, wildly unleashing countless martial arts techniques into the sky.

These techniques, astonishingly, were all above the earthly level; Zhi Lingtian’s achievements— the adventures he had come across in his life were too numerous to count.

Had he not encountered Chu Fengmian, Zhi Lingtian might also have ventured out of the Martial Victorious State to the more prosperous Nine Domains and carved out a legend of his own.

But now he had met Chu Fengmian, his bane, all his wondrous adventures meant nothing in front of Chu Fengmian.

From the moment he tried to ambush Chu Fengmian during the initiation assessment, his fate was sealed— today, he was doomed to be stomped under Chu Fengmian’s feet.

"Get over here!"

Chu Fengmian bellowed coldly, his spiritual power hand grabbed Zhi Lingtian and pulled him over in an instant. Regardless of how Zhi Lingtian struggled or resisted, it was all in vain as Chu Fengmian dragged him back to the platform.

Zhi Lingtian had escaped a hundred miles; in anyone’s view, by now he should have made his escape.

Yet now, he was reeled back in with a single move. Zhi Lingtian was the idol of all the young martial artists of the current Martial Victorious State, and yet in the hands of Chu Fengmian, he seemed like an ant, easily pinched and played with.

"Kneel!"

Chu Fengmian commanded, his voice thundering at Zhi Lingtian.

"Impossible!"

Zhi Lingtian shouted back in anger. He was also a peerless prodigy; how could he possibly kneel now?

But before his words even finished, an overwhelming pressure enveloped Zhi Lingtian.

Dragon Might, this was the true Dragon Might. Chu Fengmian’s bloodline was now three times stronger than before; his Dragon Might was frightfully intense.

At the moment the Dragon Might descended, Zhi Lingtian’s face completely froze.

His heart was unreconciled to death, but his body could no longer hold up.

"No! I am a genius! I am to be the next Dean! I cannot possibly kneel!"

Zhi Lingtian roared furiously, his spiritual power beginning to climb steadily, the peerless genius that he was unexpectedly burst forth all his strength amidst such a crisis.

Power increased wildly, he was now actually starting to resist Chu Fengmian’s Dragon Might, as if he were about to break free.

"You can’t hold me! I am a genius, the one destined by the fortunes of heaven and earth! I possess countless opportunities! You won’t trap me!"

A moment of resistance greatly boosted Zhi Lingtian’s confidence, he suddenly bellowed, fully unleashing the power within him.

But to Chu Fengmian, all of this elicited only a cold sneer.

"Prodigy? You dare to call yourself a prodigy with that? You’re merely a frog at the bottom of a well. In front of a true prodigy, you amount to nothing!"

Chu Fengmian sneered, and suddenly, within his body, the hundred drops of ancient Battle Dragon essence blood converged into a formation, making the dragon might emanating from him ten times stronger in an instant.

Before this tenfold dragon might, Zhi Lingtian’s barely gathered power instantly collapsed, and he found himself kneeling before Chu Fengmian.

Indeed, Zhi Lingtian was considered one of the top prodigies within the Martial Victory Kingdom, but in the vast expanse of the Nine Domains, Zhi Lingtian was hardly significant.

The Martial Victory Kingdom was but a small, barren, and peripheral domain within the Nine Domains. Although Zhi Lingtian’s natural talent was high, in a place such as the Seven Great Sects, he would be deemed a minor prodigy at best.

Compared with the truly exceptional geniuses, he fell far short. Chu Fengmian knew that the true monstrous talents within the Seven Great Sects would reach Saint level at fifteen and step into the Realm of Life and Death by twenty. These were the truly terrifying prodigies—aberrations.

Even Chu Fengmian did not dare to call himself an exceptional genius, so what right did Zhi Lingtian have?

Nonetheless, even when compared to those exceptional geniuses, Chu Fengmian’s heart harbored no fear now. Those geniuses had cultivated from a young age, and with countless resources, had become so strong.

But Chu Fengmian had only been reborn and returned just over half a year ago, and now he possessed such strength. With the Battle Dragon Technique, given just one opportunity, a meteoric rise was a possibility.

Zhi Lingtian’s kneeling was practically a complete demolition of his self-confidence. He became maddened, his hair disheveled and wildly flying - hardly resembling a peerless genius.

To force Zhi Lingtian to kneel on the ground was far more difficult than killing him. Murder was easy; subjugation was hard.

Especially for a peerless talent like Zhi Lingtian, with his extremely high self-esteem, making him kneel meant he surely had exhausted all his strength in resistance. To fail despite that was to shatter his confidence utterly.

A genius without confidence—what’s the point in cultivating martial arts? One might as well be a cripple.

"How formidable is Chu Fengmian’s strength, to have reached such a level? Could he truly be a Saint?"

"At the realm of Controlling Wind Tier One, how could it be so terrifying? He must have concealed his true level. Certainly, Chu Fengmian has always hidden his real level, which is why he is so fearsome."

"It seems we’re still far from seeing Chu Fengmian’s full strength. Dealing with the Crown Prince is a breeze for him."

"I suspect that the current Chu Fengmian is already capable of contending with the likes of the Patriarch of the Cheng Family, the Patriarch of the Tang Family, and perhaps even stands unrivaled among the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects."

"It can’t be that terrifying, can it? He’s not even twenty years old."

"It’s possible. Otherwise, how could Chu Fengmian brazenly stir up trouble?"

These comments kept cropping up in conversation, and even the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects, conversing through their Spiritual Sense, were taken aback by Chu Fengmian’s sudden rise—an occurrence none of them had anticipated.

"What kind of background does this kid have to be so formidable?"

"No matter what his background is, the emergence of such a talent isn’t good news for us. If we let him continue to grow, who in the Martial Victory Kingdom will be able to contend with him?"

"We should find an opportunity to kill him, before he becomes utterly invincible."

Though the conversations of the Four Great Sects’ Sect Masters were conducted through their Spiritual Sense, none could escape Chu Fengmian’s ears, and he heard everything clearly.

Among them, Han Xuanbing of the Cold Snow Pavilion, Yan Mang of the Candle Flame Gate, and Fang Xiandao of the Three Immortal Island all expressed their desire to kill Chu Fengmian, only Feng Hua of the Wind God Sect remained silent.

"It appears out of the Four Great Sects, only the Wind God Sect may be spared. As for the others, they’re all doomed!"

A flash in Chu Fengmian’s eyes, and a relentless murderous intent surged through him.
