The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1473: The Battlefield Opens

"What else can we do now that it's come to this?"

Drucker was furious, stomping his feet and pounding his chest. If he had known Ling Feng was this strong, then even if they had to hold a wager duel, he should have stepped in himself.

But now the Bloodthirsty Soul-Chasing Arrows had already fallen into Ling Feng's hands. What could he do about it?

"Hehe!"

Wen Te smiled faintly and said calmly, "I've received word that Supreme Elder Xu Zhengfeng of the Hall of War has officially handed those three Bloodthirsty Soul-Chasing Arrows to that boy Ling Feng. That means as long as we kill him, we can take the arrows back!"

"Perfect!"

Drucker's face twisted with hatred as he gritted his teeth. "Once the Hunting Battlefield opens, everyone will be randomly teleported. Whoever runs into him, kill him on the spot. Whoever brings back those three Bloodthirsty Soul-Chasing Arrows for me, I will personally grant them one request on behalf of the Ander Clan! Any request!"

Drucker himself could only be considered a fairly decent genius among the barbarians, but the Ander Clan behind him was one of the three great barbarian clans. Gaining a promise from them meant a future filled with power, wealth, and endless glory.

"This matter must not be taken lightly."

Wen Te shook his head slowly. "Clair underestimated that boy and paid the price. Only someone of your level can confidently kill him head-on. As for ordinary early-tier Great Emperors, unless there are at least three of them, they must run immediately if they encounter him."

"Hmph!"

Drucker clenched his fists. Even though he did not want to admit it, Ling Feng's strength was strange and unpredictable, far beyond what his realm suggested.

Even someone like Clair, who was already considered quite strong among early-tier Great Emperors, had fallen because of a single mistake.

"In any case, pass down the order. Among the Hall of War disciples, aside from the two Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes, this Ling Feng must also be closely watched. List him as the number one dangerous target!"

Wen Te's expression turned serious. The Great Emperors inside the tent all nodded. Ling Feng's brutality had already left a deep impression on them.

Naturally, Ling Feng had no idea that he had been labeled as the number one dangerous target by the barbarian experts, receiving the same treatment as the two Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes.

In a way, this showed how highly the barbarians regarded him.

From another angle, it was clear that not long after Supreme Elder Xu had granted those three Bloodthirsty Soul-Chasing Arrows, Wen Te had already learned about it.

There was most likely a spy within the Hall of War!

...

The next morning, both sides advanced toward the center of Red Stone Canyon under the command of their respective leaders. The independent space of the Hunting Battlefield required both commanding leaders to activate it together using divine abilities.

Supreme Elder Xu of the Hall of War and Supreme Elder Shrek of the barbarians rose into the air at the same time and landed atop a massive stone mountain ahead. Each of them formed a hand seal and struck forward simultaneously.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that they had each released a jade token, one green and one white. These two tokens were the key to opening the Hunting Battlefield.

Boom!

The forest trembled as the massive stone mountain split open down the middle. A radiant gate appeared ahead, shooting skyward as powerful space-time fluctuations spread outward.

It was a secret realm similar to the Wuji Cave Heaven, a self-contained world. The space itself was not particularly large. Each side would send one hundred elite fighters into the Hunting Battlefield to fight.

The rules were simple. The battle would continue until one side surrendered or was completely wiped out.

To prevent anyone from hiding and refusing to fight, there was also a time limit of one month.

After one month, whichever side possessed more tokens would be declared the winner.

"Alright, prepare to move out. Remember the plan. After teleporting in, gather in the southeast. The terrain there is higher and easier to control."

Wen Te began issuing orders. The barbarians nodded. Their so-called plan was clearly focused on targeting the two Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes of the Hall of War, along with Ling Feng.

For someone at the Spiritual Sea Realm to make so many Great Emperors wary was something to be proud of.

Of course, not all of them were willing to follow orders. The barbarian camp was roughly divided into two groups.

One group consisted of barbarian clansmen under Wen Te's command. The other was made up of demon clan geniuses, accounting for about one-third of their total number.

Leading them was a young fox woman from the Demonic Fox Clan. She had a graceful figure and a seductive charm, but her strength rivaled Wen Te's. She stood on the same level as the Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes.

On the Hall of War's side, command was held by the eighth of the Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes, the "Wind Master" Song Feilian, and the ninth, the "Thunder Master" Yang Zhen.

Song Feilian was naturally aloof and spoke little, so command largely fell to Yang Zhen.

Before departure, Yang Zhen gathered everyone and laid out their strategy for entering the Hunting Battlefield.

"After random teleportation, head toward the northwest immediately. There's a valley there that is easy to defend and attack from! Your first priority is to reach that valley! Do not act alone, or you'll just hand the enemy easy kills. Understood?"

As he spoke, Yang Zhen glanced at Ling Feng, his gaze carrying a hint of warning.

After all, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down. Ling Feng had stolen the spotlight the previous night and even obtained the highly coveted Bloodthirsty Soul-Chasing Arrows. It was unrealistic to expect no jealousy from others.

Still, since it was personally granted by Supreme Elder Xu, no matter how unwilling they felt, they could only accept it.

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. It seemed like he was going to be targeted by his own side again!

Being too outstanding really was a burden!

That said, a warning was just a warning. Once inside the Hunting Battlefield, everything would depend on the situation. Moving as a group had its advantages, but it also came with risks, especially the danger of being wiped out all at once.

Of course, for weaker members like Feng Ling and Chu Tiange, sticking together was still the safer option.

At some point, Feng Ling moved closer and spoke through voice transmission, "Hey, Ling Feng, don't you think Senior Brother Yang feels a bit off? Going into the valley sounds good, but it could also make us easy to surround. Wouldn't that turn us into trapped prey?"

Ling Feng clicked his tongue and looked at her in mild surprise. He had not expected her to have any sense for strategy!

"What?"

Seeing his expression, Feng Ling grew annoyed. "Do you think I'm stupid or something?"

"Of course not!"

Ling Feng quickly waved his hand and smiled faintly. "No matter what, those Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes understand the terrain here better than we do. Senior Brother Song Feilian didn't object either. Let's just take it one step at a time. We'll decide after entering the Hunting Battlefield. No need to overthink it now."

That was his advice to Feng Ling. As for himself, with his strength, he could act freely. Racking up more kills was what mattered most.

If he stuck with those two Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes, what credit would he even get?

About half an hour later, the teleportation luminous barrier finally stabilized. From high above, Xu Zhengfeng's aged voice echoed through the sky.

"All participants, enter the gate in order and prepare for teleportation! The Hunting Battlefield officially begins! Duration, one month!"
