The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1222: Even Greener Than the Great Grasslands

"Zining, step back for now. Let me have a few words with Mr. Ling."

The Venerable of the Desolate Sea took several steps forward. A terrifying aura surged outward and pressure like the weight of several ancient mountains pressed down from above.

Ling Feng's expression shifted slightly. This man's strength might fall short of the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor, yet without using his Chaotic Rebirth, even if he joined forces with Xiao Bai and the Despicable Donkey, they still might not be a match.

A peak Human Emperor was absolutely not someone to underestimate.

Ling Feng endured the crushing pressure. His legs trembled faintly, yet his spine remained straight like a spear planted in the earth.

"You do have a bit of backbone."

The Venerable of the Desolate Sea let out a cold laugh. "Mr. Ling, this old man recognizes your talent and is giving you one final chance. From today onward, you will join my Murong Clan. For the rest of your life, and even beyond your life, you will serve the Murong Clan."

"In addition, regarding what you did to Zining, this old man can overlook it. However, since you have damaged her reputation, you must take responsibility. You will marry the girl Zining, then join the Murong Clan. If you do this, I will spare your life. As for the qualification to enter the Sea of Miracles, you shall have it."

"What? Brother Murong, you!"

"Grandfather!"

Lu Baichuan and Murong Zining were both stunned. They stared at the Venerable of the Desolate Sea in disbelief.

Even Ling Feng thought he had misheard. This old man must have gone senile.

However, Ling Feng's response shocked everyone even more.

"Sorry, I can somewhat accept the other conditions, but marrying that hideous freak? Go find someone else!"

Ling Feng showed disdain. "She stripped in front of a crowd, anyone who marries her would have a head greener than the great grasslands!"

"You!"

Murong Zining was furious to the point of nearly spitting blood. "Ling Feng, you are shameless beyond belief!"

"Hehe."

Only then did Lu Baichuan start laughing maliciously. Since Ling Feng refused to appreciate the kindness shown to him, he sealed his fate. Today, death awaited him without question.

"Brat, Brother Murong cherishes talent, so he offered you a path to survive. Since you insist on seeking your own death, you cannot blame anyone else!"

Lu Baichuan's expression twisted into something cruel and distorted. In his mind, he could already see Ling Feng's blood spraying across the ground.

"Old filth, I have not even settled my accounts with you yet!"

A cold gleam flashed in Ling Feng's eyes. "If I want you dead today, no one will be able to save you!"

Under Ling Feng's chilling gaze, Lu Baichuan shivered involuntarily. He forced a tough tone but sounded hollow. "You have no place to act wild with the Murong City Lord standing right here!"

The Venerable of the Desolate Sea drew in a deep breath. His patience had clearly run dry. "Brat, I have already given you a chance. Since you refuse to cherish it, this old man will give you a lesson you will never forget!"

"And what exactly are you supposed to be?"

Ling Feng's aura flared. He shook the Eradicator of Realms in his hand. A flash of white light erupted. Ling Feng shouted, "Xiao Bai, Unleash All Eight Swords!"

The white light condensed into a human figure. The sword soul Xiao Bai immediately took hold of the Eradicator of Realms and began channeling the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art!

The moment Ling Feng's voice fell, dazzling radiance erupted behind him. It looked as if a blazing sun had risen at his back!

At the very center of that radiance were eight terrifying streams of sword qi. Eight distinct colors shimmered together. Within an instant, all eight sword forms had completed their activation.

"Scorching Sky Blaze!"

"Earth-Water Army Breaker!"

"Earth's Judgment!"

"Ten Thousand Swords Returning to One!"

"Ten Thousand Woods Earth-Sinker!"

"Ice Seal Severing Blade!"

"Heaven and Earth Gale!"

"Shocking Thunder Bolt!"

...

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several sharp sounds sliced through the air. The eight sword lights, each with a distinct form, burst skyward. They linked in the air to form a circular pattern. The handle pointed upward, the tips pointed down. Each sword shadow matched a Sword of Attribute.

Even Ling Feng's eyelids twitched. The Unleash All Eight Swords of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art was far more formidable than he had imagined!

In the blink of an eye, the eight swords soared. Their sword qi surged with overwhelming force. The violent pressure reached the clouds. Everyone nearby felt their hearts clench and their skin sting.

Lu Baichuan's face turned deathly pale. Fear of death surged so violently that he could not control himself. Without a word, he turned and tried to hide behind the Venerable of the Desolate Sea.

The Venerable of the Desolate Sea's expression was as dark as stagnant water. "Impudence! How dare you act this way in my presence!"

He had no real intention of saving Lu Baichuan. However, if a junior killed Lu Baichuan right under his watch, it would be a humiliation he could not afford to bear. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

In an instant, he raised his hand and formed a massive handprint. It clawed toward the eight sword lights.

The power of the void exploded. The Venerable of the Desolate Sea actually tore open space and redirected the sword qi to the distant sea hundreds of li away.

Even with his formidable strength, he did not dare take the eight swords head on. This alone proved how terrifying their power was.

Seeing the destructive sword qi vanish, Lu Baichuan finally let out a breath. He sneered. "You overreaching fool. How dare you act arrogant before the Murong City Lord. Kneel down and accept your death, you wretched beast!"

The next instant, something unexpected occurred!

A black shadow dropped from above. The moment Xiao Bai attacked, Ling Feng had already released the black donkey.

While the Venerable of the Desolate Sea focused entirely on Xiao Bai's sword qi, Despicable Donkey launched its own attack without hesitation.

He would never dare ambush a peak Human Emperor, but ambushing a mere body takeover old monster with at best half-step Human Emperor strength was effortless for him.

Crack!

A crisp crack sounded. Lu Baichuan's head was twisted off by the Despicable Donkey. Before the Venerable of the Desolate Sea reacted, Lu Baichuan's corpse had already fallen into a pool of blood.

"Wretched beast, how dare you!"

The Venerable of the Desolate Sea roared and struck out with his palm. Despicable Donkey had already long escaped.

Moments later, a massive shadow darkened the sky. Ling Feng had released a spindle-shaped flying vessel at some point. It lifted into the sky with Tuoba Yan aboard.

The black donkey leapt onto the vessel seconds later, clearly ready to flee.

"Laughable!"

The Venerable of the Desolate Sea let out a frigid laugh. "Brat, do you think you can escape? Three Human Emperors wove a prison of heaven and earth. You think you can break the barrier. Foolish dream..."

Before he finished speaking, the flying vessel transformed into a streak of light. It passed directly through the barrier formed by the three Human Emperors. In an instant, it vanished completely.

"Murong old filth, wait right there. The fate of that black-robed old filth will be yours as well!"

Ling Feng's wildly arrogant threat echoed from the sky. It entered the ears of everyone present before slowly fading into the wind.
