Chapter 485: Chapter 443: Crazy Idea_2
If Lin Feng were here, he would certainly recognize among those corpses two familiar faces—Leng Yunfeng from Wuning Country and Jia Yuanji, the Third Prince from Dongsheng Country.
All the corpses had their chests ripped open and their abdomens split; some had long since bled out, becoming mummified, while others had died recently, their crimson blood ceaselessly flowing into the Blood Pool, making the scene extraordinarily brutal.
In the midst of the Blood Pool, a considerable amount of blood had already gathered, churning incessantly. At the center of the blood, a person was sitting cross-legged.
This was a young man around the age of seventeen or eighteen, with a pale complexion and rather handsome looks. However, he had a head of blood-red hair, strikingly conspicuous, even to the extent where his eyebrows were of the same blood-red color, giving off an eerie and sinister sensation.
The youth with the blood-red hair was practicing his cultivation in the blood, absorbing the immense Blood Essence from within it.
At this moment, a black-robed youth stepped forward outside the Blood Pool, facing the youth within and respectfully said with a fist clasped in his hand, "Young Master Blood, just now, we have lost another two!"
Upon hearing the words, the youth with the blood-red hair slowly opened his eyes, which too shone with a piercing blood light.
"In just two days, twenty have perished. What a bunch of trash!"
The youth’s voice was calm, emotionless, as he spoke.
Though the youth with the blood-red hair did not deliver his words with severity, they managed to cause a tremor among the black-robed youths.
The black-robed youths remained silent, for even though they were all unparalleled geniuses from the Blood Luo Hall’s sub-halls of every Domain, in front of this Blood Child from the main hall of Dongsheng’s Blood Luo Hall, they dared not even breathe too heavily.
They knew the fearsomeness of this Blood Child; the Blood Emperor’s own son, an Earth Martial Master of the Ninth Layer, his strength comparable to a warrior of the True Gang Realm’s first level.
"Very well, the emergence of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace is nigh; it is time for us to sweep through the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm!"
The youth with the blood-red hair pondered for a moment, then asked, "In each of your Domains, who are the significant experts we should take note of?"
Upon hearing the inquiry, everyone began to report in succession.
"Chu Zhantian, ranking first on the Hundred Extremes List from the Dragon Region, also possesses the cultivation of the Ninth Layer Earth Martial Master; he cannot be underestimated!"
"There’s also Jiang Taixu from the Cloud Domain, who ranks first on their Hundred Extremes List and should not be treated lightly!"
"And there’s Lei Xiao from the Thunder Domain."
"..."
The black-robed youths continued, each giving a bow as they reported to the youth with the blood-red hair.
At that moment, a tall black-robed youth also clasped his fist and said, "The number one on the Great Thousand Domain’s Hundred Extremes List is named Lin Feng, and he’s quite strong!"
The black-robed people heard this and looked towards the speaking youth, their faces carrying a teasing smile. "Mo Yue, is there even a strong warrior to be found in a minor place like your Great Thousand Domain? What is the cultivation level of this Lin Feng?" one of the black-robed people asked with a sneer.
This tall youth was none other than Mo Yue, the Young Master and a top genius on the Great Thousand Domain Blood Luo Hall’s Hundred Extremes List.
Upon hearing the question, Mo Yue’s face stiffened, and he replied unnaturally, "Martial Master Fourth Layer!"
Pfft!
Each black-robed person held back their laughter upon hearing this, but in front of the youth with the blood-red hair, they dared not let out a sound, turning their faces red with the effort.
A skinny black-robed youth managed to control his laughter, shaking his head saying, "Just like yours, such a level of cultivation can only be considered a young talent in your Great Thousand Domain!"
Mo Yue kept silent; the other was right – both he and Lin Feng, in comparison with the geniuses of other Domains, truly counted for nothing.
"Enough!"
At this time, the youth with the blood-red hair uttered a cold shout, and everyone immediately fell silent.
The youth with the blood-red hair glanced at Mo Yue and said indifferently, "Do not mention such trash as a Martial Master of Fourth Layer; the rest of you, continue."
Mo Yue’s heart trembled as the youth with the blood-red hair calling Lin Feng trash was tantamount to labeling him as trash too, yet he dared not object.
Then, the crowd continued, each introducing the noteworthy experts from their respective Domains.
However, no one mentioned the Xuan Domain, since the youth with the blood-red hair was from there, making the introduction unnecessary.
After a while, having listened to everyone’s reports, the youth with the blood-red hair kept silent.
A short time later, he nodded and said, "It seems that aside from the first ranked individuals on the Hundred Extremes List from the Four Great Domains, there are no other experts worth noting!"
With that said, the youth rose from the Blood Pool, his gaze cold and distant as he looked beyond the mountains.
"Now, follow me to sweep through the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm, rob every talent we encounter, drain them, kill them!" The youth with the blood-red hair’s words were filled with domineering authority, peerlessly arrogant.
"Yes, Young Master Blood!"
The black-robed youths responded thunderously, their bodies filled with boundless killing intent.
...
In the mountains and forests.
Han Yijian and Wu Sheng, after a day and night of healing, aside from Zhu Shaojing who had weaker strength and heavier injuries and had not fully recovered, the other three’s wounds had mostly healed.
Each of them consecutively consumed Purple Nan Fruits, refined the medicinal power, and improved their cultivation.
Lin Feng was sitting cross-legged under a large tree not far away, also cultivating. He circulated the Silent Annihilation Heart Method while condensing Silent Annihilation Sword Qi.
Silent Annihilation Sword Qi was extremely important for Lin Feng. Previously, when pursuing Yu Wenjun and the two others, if it wasn’t for his Sword Qi being completely exhausted, they would not have left unscathed.
Fortunately, due to the significant increase in his cultivation, the speed at which Lin Feng could consolidate Silent Annihilation Sword Qi had greatly increased. In one day and one night, all nine strands of Sword Qi were fully restored.
Lin Feng’s current thought was to consolidate the surge in his cultivation and, if possible, advance his Silent Annihilation Heart Method to the Fifth Layer Realm.
Once the Silent Annihilation Heart Method reached the Fifth Layer, two strands of Silent Annihilation Sword Qi could be condensed within each Spirit Vortex. At that time, he would be able to have eighteen strands of Sword Qi, barely enough to sustain him in a prolonged battle.
Otherwise, with only nine strands of Sword Qi, a few attacks would deplete it all, the consumption was too rapid, making prolonged battles unfeasible.
Another hour passed, and Wu Sheng and the others had finished their cultivation. All four had advanced to a higher level, each breaking through their current realm.
The cultivation of the four had already reached the peak of their respective realms. With the boost from a treasure like Purple Nan Fruit, their breakthroughs were anything but uncertain.
This was also because their cultivations were lower that they could break through. If it were Lin Feng, a hundred Purple Nan Fruits would not likely bring about a breakthrough.
"Lin Feng, thank you for this time!"
Wu Sheng walked up to Lin Feng, clasped his fists, and expressed his gratitude. Not only had Lin Feng saved his life, but he had also given him a Purple Nan Fruit. Such a great kindness, even the usually indifferent Wu Sheng showed gratitude.
"Lin Feng, thanks!
"Lin Feng, if it weren’t for you this time, I would have already left the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm and missed the inheritance of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace!"
Han Qianze, Han Yijian, and Zhu Shaojing came forward to thank him in succession.
Zhu Shaojing, looking at Lin Feng’s still somewhat youthful face, felt complicated. There had been some friction between him and Lin Feng, yet Lin Feng had still reached out to save him and gifted him a Purple Nan Fruit, which made Zhu Shaojing’s feelings quite complex.
Hearing the words of several people, Lin Feng finished his cultivation and slowly opened his eyes.
"It was just a helping hand, no need to mention it!"
Lin Feng smiled slightly and then, after a moment of thought, looked at the four of them and said, "I now wish to propose a cooperative venture with you, are you willing?"
"Cooperate?"
The four of them were startled, asking with confusion, "What cooperation?"
The four were puzzled. Now that Lin Feng was so much stronger than them, what did he need to cooperate with them on?
"Raid the Heavenly Vault Divine Realm, rob everyone!"
Lin Feng stared at Han Yijian and the others, his voice indifferent.
That’s right, Lin Feng, now with greatly increased power, was considering raiding. Why not when those geniuses from the other domains were so wealthy?
The two black-robed youngsters he had slain earlier each had three to four million Low Grade Spirit Stones.
Including those he had absorbed before, wasn’t each one of them carrying several million Low Grade Spirit Stones? These geniuses from other domains were truly damn rich; Lin Feng felt it would be a waste not to rob them.
The only regret Lin Feng had was that he hadn’t managed to take the Storage Ring of Hu Yuanlong, whom he had drained alive.
After Lin Feng spoke, Wu Sheng, Han Yijian, and the others did not speak. They were all stunned, their brains seemingly unable to catch up for a moment.
It took a good five or six breaths for the four to snap back to their senses.
"What? What did you say?"
"Rob everyone?"
"How is that possible?"
"You... you must be joking."
The expressions on their faces were priceless, indescribable, everyone’s mouths agape, wide enough to fit a foul duck egg.
Robbing everyone?
