Chapter 1555 - 29: Sensation

"Special news, special news! A Human Clan cultivator in Xuanzhou instantly killed the Third Army Corps Commander of the Wentian Army. Someone recorded the scene back then with a memory sphere, and now the auction house is selling crystal spheres with the impression of that scene."

...

Such a shocking piece of news spread from city to city, initially in the Seventy-two States of the north.

Then it began to spread to other states.

Even to the Overseas World.

The disciples of the Heavenly Array Sect sold the memory spheres to the auction house.

And the auction house imprinted the scenes from the memory spheres onto crystal spheres.

Then they began selling them in numerous cities.

This matter caused a tremendous sensation.

...

"Is it true? Was Zhuge Long really killed instantly? He’s a god! To instantly kill a god, what kind of cultivation is that?" Many people exclaimed in shock, unable to believe what they heard.

"The news is absolutely true. And it’s said the one who killed Zhuge Long is a cultivator from our Heavenly Martial Continent." Someone else added.

"A cultivator from the Heavenly Martial Continent? A god from the Heavenly Martial Continent? Aren’t our continent’s Guardian Gods in Central Province now?" Immediately, someone expressed doubt.

"It’s not those Guardian Gods, but a young god, reportedly only in his twenties." An informed individual stated.

"Are you kidding? A god in their twenties? Even if they started cultivating in the womb, they couldn’t reach that realm!" Many people shook their heads in skepticism.

Despite the disbelief, many still couldn’t contain their curiosity.

So they proceeded to the auction house to purchase the crystal spheres.

The content imprinted on the crystal spheres was quite simple, displaying only a few scenes.

These scenes showed Zhuge Long attacking Lin Feng, and then being instantly killed by Lin Feng with one move.

After Zhuge Long’s death,

the scene abruptly ended.

"It’s really Zhuge Long, one of Chu Wentian’s favored generals, a god, and he was just instantly killed like that."

Many people exclaimed in shock.

"Look at the person who killed Zhuge Long. Why does he seem so familiar? Does anyone have an impression of him?" Someone asked, staring at Lin Feng in the crystal sphere, puzzled.

Following this, many people scrutinized Lin Feng closely.

"Why does this person resemble Lin Feng?" Suddenly, a cultivator remarked.

"Lin Feng? Which Lin Feng?" Someone immediately asked in confusion.

"Lin Feng, the leader of the East Sea Cultivator Army," the cultivator replied.

"Didn’t he perish alongside the Demon Saint Heavenly Venerate?"

"At that time, he was indeed swallowed by the space-time reverse flow, logically he should be dead, but it’s not impossible for him to have astonishing methods and returned unharmed."

"It’s indeed Lin Feng; I was fortunate enough to meet him once back then."

...

Soon, the news that Lin Feng was not dead and had returned to the Heavenly Martial Continent quickly spread.

This news caused a huge sensation.

Back then, Lin Feng was a Lord on the Heavenly Martial Continent.

He annihilated the Hao Realm Demon Venerable, battled the Demon Saint Heavenly Venerate, causing significant losses to the Heavenly Demons.

If Lin Feng hadn’t been swallowed by the space-time reverse flow,

the Desire Kingdom would probably have already become a super giant power, and the forces of the Dragon Palace would not dare covet the Desire Kingdom.

And now, Lin Feng was not dead and had returned to the Heavenly Martial Continent.

This news was incredibly heart-shaking.

Wentian City!

Wentian Hall!

At this moment, the atmosphere within Wentian Hall was extremely heavy, as the four major army corps commanders of the Wentian Army collectively sought an audience with Chu Wentian.

Chu Wentian appeared in his thirties, dressed in white, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, extraordinarily handsome.

This person had not been cultivating for long, only five hundred years.

But he had long since stepped into the God Realm.

His current cultivation could be described as unfathomable.

"Who exactly killed Zhuge Long?" Chu Wentian’s expression slightly darkened as he asked.

The First Corps Commander replied, "Reporting to you, sir, according to our investigation, the person who killed Zhuge Long is named Lin Feng, who was the leader of the East Sea Cultivator Army swallowed by the space-time reverse flow during the battle with the Demon Saint Heavenly Venerate two years ago."

Chu Wentian squinted his eyes and said, "I’ve long heard of this person’s reputation; it is truly surprising. For this person to survive after being swallowed by the space-time reverse flow is no ordinary fortune indeed."

The Second Corps Commander said, "Sir, what should we do now? Should we join forces to kill this person and avenge Zhuge Long?"

Chu Wentian said, "Many people are probably eager for us to take action, only to end up with both sides suffering losses."

"Could it be that Zhuge Long’s grudge will be left unsettled?" The Fourth Corps Commander said unwillingly.

"Naturally, it cannot be left unsettled!" Chu Wentian’s eyes flickered with a cold murderous intent as he said, "If this person does not die, where will I, Chu Wentian, place my pride? However, for now, we are not in a hurry to make a move on this person."

"Sir means?" The four major army corps commanders all looked at Chu Wentian.

"This Lin Feng is a once-in-every-ten-thousand-years super genius of the Heavenly Martial Continent, but he also has a rival — that Huangfu Qingtian, who is likewise a once-in-every-ten-thousand-years super genius. They have a ten-year life-and-death battle agreement, approaching within less than a year. The ten-year life-and-death agreement between these two is about to arrive. Huangfu Qingtian, it is said, received a part of the Pangu Taoist and is now about to open the Primordial Secret Realm. If he also obtains the legacy from the Primordial Secret Realm, Lin Feng will surely have no chance in their battle. Since Huangfu Qingtian will make a move, why should we be in such a hurry?"

Chu Wentian’s eyes shone with the glint of intrigue.

"What if Huangfu Qingtian loses in this battle?" The Fifth Corps Commander asked.

Chu Wentian smiled slightly, "Even if this Lin Feng beats Huangfu Qingtian, by that time, he will likely be exhausted, and for us to kill him would be an easy matter."

"Sir is wise!"

All four major army corps commanders saluted Chu Wentian.

...

As Lin Feng headed towards the East Sea Desire Kingdom,

many forces within the Heavenly Martial Continent,

witnessed Lin Feng instantly killing Zhuge Long through the crystal spheres.

Such as the Jiang Family, Heavenly God Hall, Spirit Array Master Holy Temple, Extraterrestrial Life, Heavenly Demon, and others.

The high-ranking officials of these great forces all saw those scenes.

Naturally, some rejoiced while others loathed.

In the depths of an ancient Secret Realm, hovering above the sky, was the Thirty-Three Heavenly Ladder.

By crossing the Thirty-Three Heavenly Ladder,

one could enter the Primordial Secret Realm.

Currently, Huangfu Qingtian had already stepped onto the twenty-first step of the Heavenly Ladder.

Standing beneath the Heavenly Ladder was a mysterious cultivator shrouded in a black robe.

This cultivator brought the news to him that Lin Feng was not dead and had returned to the Heavenly Martial Continent.

"Not dead? That’s interesting... If he were dead, life would be invincible and too boring. Soon, I’ll be able to enter the Primordial Secret Realm and obtain Yuanshi Tianzun’s legacy. When the ten-year life-and-death agreement arrives, watch how I torture you!"

Huangfu Qingtian let out a cold, indifferent laugh.
