I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Behind the Hundred Herbs Sect, the spiritual vein cave that Chu Feng had chosen as his secluded cultivation place was currently shrouded in an energy mist so thick it was impossible to dissipate.

Inside the cave, Chu Feng sat cross-legged, his aura as deep and boundless as the ocean.

As he completely absorbed the last wisp of pure energy, his eyes, which had been closed for three days, suddenly opened!

In an instant, two golden rays of light, seemingly solid, shot out from his eyes, piercing through the cave's stone walls and leaving two bottomless holes in the distant mountainside.

The barrier to the King Realm has long been breached.

The shackles of the Heavenly King Realm were utterly crushed.

At this moment, his cultivation level has already rightfully entered the first level of the Emperor Realm!

Leaping across two major realms!

Chu Feng slowly stood up, feeling the unprecedentedly powerful force within his body, his joints cracking and popping.

He could clearly feel that his strength had increased more than a hundredfold compared to before.

However, there was little joy on his face.

Because he knew that this level of strength was still insufficient in the face of those truly immortal lineages and supreme imperial clans.

Just then, a rapid message talisman pierced through the cave's restrictions and flew to his front.

Chu Feng swept his thoughts across the area, raising a slight brow.

coming.

He took a step forward, and his figure appeared in the sky above the Hundred Herbs Sect.

In the distant starry sky, a gigantic ship, several times larger than the warship Qing Xuanzi had previously traveled on, its entire body gleaming with a chilling light, was tearing through space and charging headlong toward the Hundred Herbs Starfield.

On the deck of the ship, an old man with a sinister face, dressed in a dark gold Taoist robe, stood with his hands behind his back. His aura was several times more terrifying than Qing Xuanzi's; he was clearly a powerful expert at the fourth level of the Venerable Lord Realm!

He was Zhao Heng, the inner sect elder sent by the Taicang Holy Land this time!

In the past two days, the intelligence hall of the Taicang Holy Land has been operating at full capacity and has thoroughly investigated the "background" of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty.

A newly emerging force with no powerful backers. Its strongest member is nothing more than a fire qilin that is suspected to be an ancient divine beast, along with a strange coffin-shaped magical artifact.

Such strength is simply a joke in front of a behemoth like the Taicang Holy Land!

The reason Qing Xuanzi was defeated was entirely due to insufficient intelligence and underestimating his opponent.

Now, Zhao Heng has personally taken action, bringing with him the "Binding God Rope," a special weapon from the Holy Land designed to subdue demonic beasts, and the "Soul-Suppressing Bell," designed to counter attacks on the soul. He is fully prepared.

In his view, this trip was nothing more than crushing a slightly stronger ant.

"You are Chu Feng, the ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty?" Zhao Heng looked down at Chu Feng as if examining an ant.

"Your Taicang Holy Land is truly incorrigible." Chu Feng remained calm, as if he had not seen the oppressive aura emanating from the other party that would terrify even ordinary emperors.

"Hmph, sharp tongue!" Zhao Heng sneered, his eyes full of mockery and disdain. "A mere Emperor Realm cultivator dares to be insolent before me? I've come here today for only one thing."

He paused, then his voice suddenly turned stern: "Hand over that fire qilin and that strange coffin, then cut off your own arms, kneel down and accept your death! I might consider leaving you a whole corpse!"

Chu Feng smiled upon hearing this.

He shook his head, his eyes looking at someone who was a hopeless idiot.

"It seems there's no point in reasoning with someone like you."

Too lazy to waste any more words, he moved his mind, and the ancient, blood-red coffin reappeared in front of him.

"This broken coffin again?" Seeing this, Zhao Heng showed no fear, but rather a hint of greed. "Perfect, today I'll take your magic weapon too!"

Before he finished speaking, he flashed forward and was about to make a move.

However, this time, Chu Feng did not summon the Sword Demon.

"Senior God of Slaughter, I'll have to trouble you this time," he whispered to the other being in his mind.

"Hmph, a bunch of ignorant ants, always disturbing my peace and quiet."

A voice filled with endless killing intent and tyranny resounded from the depths of the Burial Coffin.

The next instant, a blood-red aura, even more terrifying and domineering than when the Sword Demon appeared before, surged into the sky!

The coffin lid slid open on its own.

A figure dressed in a blood-red robe slowly sat up.

Indeed, the Blood Pagoda!

After this period of recuperation and having absorbed the life essence of countless powerful beings, the remnant soul of Xue Futu is now several times more solid than before!

His empty eyes slowly opened and fell on Zhao Heng.

Zhao Heng felt as if his soul had been gripped tightly by an invisible hand in that instant, and a fear originating from the deepest part of his soul began to grow and spread wildly!

"You...you..." He pointed at the Blood Buddha, his voice trembling violently with extreme fear, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Xue Futu ignored him, simply extending a finger and pointing it at Zhao Heng from afar.

There was no earth-shattering power, only a barely visible line of blood that flashed by in an instant.

puff!

Zhao Heng's protective aura, which was strong enough to withstand the full force of a Venerable Lord Realm expert, was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper in front of that blood line and was easily pierced.

A small blood hole appeared between his eyebrows.

Life is slipping away rapidly.

"Who...who are you?" Zhao Heng roared with his last bit of strength.

He never expected that he, with his cultivation at the fourth level of the Venerable Lord Realm, wouldn't even have a chance to make a move.

At this moment, a ripple finally appeared in Xue Futu's empty eyes.

He spoke slowly, his voice hoarse, yet clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.

"They all call me..."

"Blood Floating Pagoda".

boom!!!

The moment Zhao Heng heard that name, his mind went completely blank!

Blood Floating Pagoda!

That person who proved his Dao through killing, slaughtered all gods and demons, and made his name the first forbidden god of slaughter in all the heavens?!

He wasn't... wasn't he already dead?!

Endless horror and fear instantly overwhelmed his reason.

His soul screamed and frantically tried to escape from his dying body, tearing through the void and fleeing without a second thought!

However, a giant hand formed from condensed blood energy had already sealed off this world.

A large hand gently grasped it.

"No--!"

Zhao Heng's soul only had time to let out a desperate scream before it was crushed to pieces by that bloody hand!

"Go back and tell that damned Holy Land Lord of yours." Blood Buddha didn't even look at the dissipating soul, but only spoke calmly to the ship that was already terrified.

"If you dare to come again, I will personally visit your door and wipe out your entire family, Tai Cang."

After saying this, he lay back down in the coffin, a flash of blood appeared, and he disappeared.

The disciples of the Taicang Holy Land on that ship, as if granted a pardon, scrambled and stumbled, steering the ship away as if fleeing into the depths of the starry sea.

"Thank you, senior." Chu Feng bowed respectfully to the Burial Coffin.

"Hmph, kid, this time, you should be able to keep those flies in check for a while," Blood Buddha's voice rang out. "However, your own strength is still too weak. Improve it as soon as possible; those old guys in the Burial Coffin can't always wake up in time."

Chu Feng nodded, and then he devoured Zhao Heng's physical body into the Burial Coffin. Of course, he also removed Zhao Heng's storage ring.

Then, he scanned the room with his divine sense and found that there were quite a few treasures inside, two of which caught his attention.
