Chapter 257: Arrival

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

"Hu!"

Chu Feng’s exhaled breath was like a white spear. It shot out over a hundred meters high and pierced into the cliffside to form a dark hole.

He felt his practice has borne fruit. His blood energy was boiling, and his spiritual energy was becoming much stronger. He wasn’t a muscular man, but a power as vast as the oceans was contained within his body.

As he circulated his breathing technique, the vast energy would surge up and materialize into mysterious shapes that were his Xingyi Twelve True Forms.

They weren’t merely for intimidation purposes but possessed true destructive potential. The true forms would envelop him with his every move and aid with his lethal attacks.

"Time to set out!"

Chu Feng’s body glowed as life essence flowed throughout his pores.

The energy filled his lungs to the brink of bursting apart!

Chu Feng set off on the 2000-kilometer journey to Mount Yunluo. This distance was almost nothing to him at this point as he could arrive in half an hour at full speed.

But there was no need to go all out at the moment so he took it easy and preserved his strength for the imminent battle.

Nonetheless, his "leisurely" speed, despite far slower than his maximum, was still supersonic and he duly arrived one hour later.

Chu Feng’s expression was calm for he had not used up much energy on the road. It didn’t tax him except while running at four or five times the speed of sound.

Covering 2000 kilometers in an hour was already an astonishing rate for the general public.

Mount Yunluo. Here, green pines and jade cypresses grew in abundance while ancient names could be seen carved on the precipitous cliffs. The atmosphere here was indeed quite extraordinary.

The mountain itself wasn’t very big and it couldn’t be considered particularly vast or majestic. But the ambiance was full of vibrant life—the vegetation was full of vitality, while springs and waterfalls added to the superb scenery.

Chu Feng focused his vision from five kilometers away. He exercised due caution as there might be experts with six severed shackles on the mountain.

He, however, still had the advantage in that his spiritual energy was completely merged with his physical body, allowing him to approach undetected.

This ability became even more pronounced after he had severed his fifth shackle. It was quite difficult for others to sense him.

Chu Feng thus arrived at Mount Yunluo on his own!

He moved in silence and circled around the main peak, traversing the forests and avoiding all lifeforms.

He was scouting the lay of the land in order to deploy the four pillars and kill the kings within.

He didn’t know how many beast kings there were, but there should be a good number of them and definitely including some with six severed shackles.

After careful scouting, Chu Feng withdrew a bronze pillar from the snow-white bottle. The thick pillar was as tall as a man and with various mysterious patterns on them.

He felt satisfied with the pristine jade bottle. With such a spatial bottle in hand, it became much easier to transport heavy metal equipment.

Finally, Chu Feng buried a pillar in each of the four different directions.

At this moment, the area encompassed within began to change, as if the vigor and energy of the region were somehow affected.

Naturally, the changes were undetectable unless the person was observing Mount Yunluo in detail like Chu Feng.

He was certain that the magnetic field alteration had affected the entirety of the main peak.

"Will this cause a ghostly labyrinth?" Chu Feng wasn’t certain, but it was enough if he could prevent the beast kings from detecting danger in advance.

Chu Feng was like a spirit as he retreated from the woods and contacted Lu Tong to inquire about preparations on his side.

"We’ll be ready very soon. The estimated time is this evening. There will be no more Mount Yunluo thereafter." Lu Tong’s words were calm despite the raging murderous intent.

"Very good!" Chu Feng nodded.

Following that, the two arranged the direction from which Lu Tong would attack and where Chu Feng would be stationed. They arranged everything in advance to avoid accidents and friendly fire.

Chu Feng especially pointed out the locations of the four pillars and reminded Lu Tong not to attack them lest they be destroyed in the barrage. Although he felt that the pillars should be able to withstand such damage, it was prudent to avoid taking risks.

"Old man, now that everything is ready, I’ll be waiting to kill the numerous kings!" Chu Feng ended their conversation with such a declaration.

The fresh trees growing within the woods were verdant and full of vitality. Chu Feng selected a limestone and sat cross-legged upon it to build up his energy and spirit prior to the battle. He knew that certain experts would rush out after the attack and that would be the best time for him to make his move.

This was his first great battle after returning from mortal danger. He was raring to start a massacre!

Lu Tong’s management was extremely efficient, allowing the plan to proceed smoothly and in great secrecy.

The afternoon sun was shining brightly upon Mount Yunluo, lighting up the whole summit in a golden glow.

The simple Taoist temple was also basking in the radiant glow.

Qian Yue was somewhat upset because so many king level entities had arrived one after another. All of this for a single Chu Feng; was it really necessary?!

He felt that a small issue had been blown way out of proportion. Chu Feng was merely an ant expert with four severed shackles, someone he could kill with a single kick!

Qian Yue was dissatisfied with white-robed Xu Qing and felt that the man was being overly cautious. So many people had arrived to join in on the chaos.

More importantly, Xu Qing himself hadn’t arrived.

But Qian Yue’s mood changed after seeing the Peacock King arrive. Even such a powerful being such as himself had to admit that this graceful expert was someone worth befriending.

"Sire Peacock King!"

The old badger excitedly greeted in full ceremony.

The Peacock King had still arrived earlier than most of the others despite encountering certain delays on the road.

At this time, he was climbing the mountain with an amiable smile. His whole person was incomparably handsome and perfect.

Like Qian Yue, his long violet hair hung loosely behind his back. His eyes were spirited, and his skin was sparkling and translucent like jade.

He was already quite the senior in age, but he appeared extremely young, looking perhaps no more than 20 years old.

Some of the beast kings were surprised to see that the Peacock King had become even younger than before and his blood energy more vibrant. Apparently, he had made some progress in his cultivation.

The peacock race became quite powerful after the great upheavals and were all extremely handsome after transforming to human form.

The Peacock King was, naturally, the most outstanding of the race. He was confident, graceful, and amiable with no blemish to speak of. He was, perhaps, even more beautiful than the average lady as he slowly walked up Mount Yunluo.

Qian Yue revealed a smile and personally welcomed the distinguished Peacock King. He sensed that the latter’s blood energy was as vast as the oceans and even more powerful than he was.

As an expert of marine race origins, Qian Yue looked up to very few other experts, white-robe Xu Qing being one of them. He viewed this Peacock King before him in an even more favorable light.

He was fairly intimate and active in his attempt to rope in the Peacock King.

The other king level entities were even more respectful. They were all cautious and obedient before this peerless Peacock King, an exceptional tyrant who even dares vie for the Pilgrimage Grounds.

"Everyone went through the trouble to honor us with your presence just to kill a mere Chu Feng. I feel we have truly flattered him too much by involving so many people!" Qian Yue’s third eye was glowing as he spoke.

The other king level entities all revealed odd expressions because Qian Yue was ignoring them completely before the arrival of the Peacock King.

The Peacock King always wore a polite smile and looked nothing like a ferocious beast king battling against the peerless human experts.

"With two peerless experts holding the fort, the rest of us can be considered as having come to join in on the fun and witness the grand occasion where Chu Feng’s head falls to the ground."

"Heh, heh, with King Qian Yue and the Peacock King arriving in person, Chu Feng would surely die in one casual move as soon as he shows himself!" the kings replied in succession.

This was especially true of those who had participated in surrounding Chu Feng that night because most of them had been feeling uneasy ever since.

After witnessing Chu Feng kill ten kings that night, most of them were apprehensive and lived in fear that Chu Feng might, one day, come to them for revenge, but now things were looking good for them. The kings gathered this time were so much more powerful than their previous lineup and would easily be able to destroy Demon King Chu!

Some people were even guessing whether Qian Yue and the Peacock King would try to obtain the peerless breathing technique after capturing Chu Feng.

That evening, the setting sun was a sanguineous red.

Chu Feng opened his eyes and rose from the rock; his essence and spirit had reached their peak. He gazed over at Mount Yunluo and muttered, "It is time."

It was at this time that his communicator rang.

"The fireworks have been ignited. Prepare to watch the show!" Lu Tong informed.

"Great!" Chu Feng hung up with a single word.

At that time, beams upon beams of bright light intersected high above with brilliance akin to a divine rainbow traversing the skies. The light interwove like dense arcs of congregating lightning before shooting down towards Mount Yunluo.

Chu Feng stood on a high mountain and cruelly smiled. The resplendent rays of the setting sun washed over him, making him appear like a demonic god waiting to start a massacre.

Any king who had survived the first wave would have to pass through him before reaching safety. He had been waiting for too long just to kill these kings!

Boom!

The earth and sky shattered as Mount Yunluo exploded, followed by the eventual meltdown of whatever remained of it.

The scene was absolutely terrifying—laser attacks and missiles descended within an instant, turning the whole area into a hellish sea of flames with gushing lava and boiling steam.

The so-called "firecracker" was not small indeed. It was definitely enough to shock the world.

Doubtlessly, the four pillars had been useful. Otherwise, the numerous kings would’ve sensed the danger much earlier and moved to evade it.

Chu Feng knew king level entities were extremely tenacious. There was bound to be some survivors among them who would struggle free.

Boom!

The air exploded as Chu Feng crossed 1500 meters in a single step. He arrived with great speed to block the escape of a certain person, "Die!"

"You… you’re Chu Feng?!" The king level expert was shocked out of his wits. He had never expected everything was caused by Chu Feng.

Chu Feng didn’t reply and threw out a punch with light surging throughout his body. The attack was like a sun shooting through the sky, producing a blinding explosion upon impact which enveloped the victim completely.

This king level entity struggled with all his might but all was in vain.

The fist attack immediately caused the man to explode and gave him absolutely no chance to retaliate. It was a rapid extermination!
