Chapter 476: Still Want to Fight?

Jiang Feng didn't answer Duan Zhang, just put the book away and spoke lightly.

"This book is mine."

His tone was very flat, as if stating something obvious.

Upon hearing this, the several white-robed people behind him exchanged glances, their faces changing.

Duan Ping was the first to jump out, speaking indignantly.

"In this entire underground palace, this book is the most valuable; what right do you have to just speak up and take it?"

"You really think our Duan family is easy to bully!"

The other white-robed people also nodded, their eyes full of hostility.

Jiang Feng ignored Duan Ping, merely looking at Duan Zhang and speaking coldly.

"Do you Duan family have any objections?"

His gaze was very calm, yet it carried an invisible pressure.

Duan Zhang, however, had withdrawn his smile, his expression turning indifferent.

He looked at Jiang Feng, his tone carrying a hint of courtesy, but more so probing.

"Mr. Jiang, as a Kunlun Descendant with unmatched strength, my Duan family does not wish to be your enemy."

He paused, then continued.

"But the inheritance of the Great Law Martial Ancestor is of great significance to my Duan family. For this underground palace, the Duan family has devoted decades of effort, and many have died."

He said this while stepping forward two paces, his tone becoming sincere.

"How about this: Mr. Jiang can take the original, and my Duan family will make a copy—would that work?"

Duan Zhang finished speaking, looked at Jiang Feng, and waited for his reply.

In his view, being able to give the original to Jiang Feng was already a concession by the Duan family.

But Jiang Feng said nothing.

Duan Zhang's eyes grew slightly colder, and his tone turned a bit firmer.

"Mr. Jiang, my master, the National Teacher, is also a Martial Ancestor Strongman. Our past grudges, I can treat as if they never happened, but this Dharma is of utmost importance; I hope Mr. Jiang can give the Duan family some face."

His words were spoken politely, but the threat was obvious.

Jiang Feng looked at him, the corner of his mouth curling into a cold smile.

"This Dharma has nothing to do with your Duan family."

His voice wasn't loud, but each word was crystal clear.

"The rule of the Great Law Martial Ancestor is: whoever obtains the book becomes the successor."

He paused, then looked at Duan Zhang with a teasing expression.

"Your Duan family can't even open the Second Door—what right do you have to claim this inheritance?"

He said this without mercy, and Duan Zhang's face sank instantly.

Duan Ping was even more furious, his face turning red as he shouted.

"What are you?! Dare to speak to our Eldest Son like that!"

The other white-robed people also stepped forward, hands resting on their weapons.

Duan Zhang raised his hand, stopping Duan Ping.

He looked at Jiang Feng, the last trace of courtesy in his eyes disappearing.

"Looks like you, Mr. Jiang, want to fight the Duan family to the end?"

His voice was cold, as if making a final confirmation.

Jiang Feng looked at him and spoke lightly.

"Just with these good-for-nothings, you also want to attack me?"

His tone carried a hint of contempt, completely disregarding Duan Ping and the few white-robed people.

Duan Zhang smiled without speaking, the corner of his mouth curling into a strange smile.

The next moment, Duan Ping leading the four white-robed people moved simultaneously.

They formed hand seals with both hands, their speed astonishing.

Four beams of light shot from their hands, meeting in midair to form a huge light net.

The light net descended from the sky, covering Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng's expression changed instantly.

Not because the light net was particularly strong, but because he sensed a special power attached to it.

That power was not Duan Ping's, nor that of the other white-robed people.

But came from the underground palace itself.

The underground palace left by the Great Law Martial Ancestor was responding to their attack.

Or rather, the seal of the underground palace had been activated.

Jiang Feng suddenly looked up, seeing the star pattern on the ceiling of the underground palace begin to flash wildly.

Those stars were no longer still, but began to spin, faster and faster.

The entire underground palace trembled, the murals on the walls began to glow, and the diagrams on the floor started to turn.

A terrifying pressure surged from all directions, weighing down on everyone.

Duan Zhang stood outside the light net, a triumphant smile on his face.

"Mr. Jiang, do you think the Duan family's decades of research were just for looking around outside the underground palace?"

His voice echoed within the underground palace.

"Although we can't open the Second Door, we have studied the underground palace's seal thoroughly."

He paused, his tone carried a few points of mockery.

"Inside here, you're facing not only my Duan Family's people, but also the seal left by the Great Law Martial Ancestor. Do you think you can win?"

Jiang Feng didn't speak, his gaze swept over the surroundings.

The light net drew ever closer, the distance to him less than two meters.

The star pattern above his head spun faster and faster.

Beams of light shot down from the stars, landing on the ground and forming a huge cage.

Duan Ping and several white-robed people stood outside the cage, their hands continuing to form seals, maintaining the operation of the light net.

"Kunlun Descendant? That's all!"

Duan Ping sneered.

Jiang Feng looked at them, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

He didn't rush to attack, but closed his eyes.

He opened his perception fully, to feel the rhythm of the Underground Palace seal's operation.

The rotation of those stars formed a complete picture in his mind.

He saw it.

The Underground Palace's seal and the book left by the Great Law Martial Ancestor share the same origin.

Both are constructed based on the spacetime law.

And this book is now in his hand.

Jiang Feng opened his eyes, a Cold Smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

He took the book from his bosom, opened the first page.

The ancient characters began to glow, a dark blue light surged from the pages, echoing with the light in the Underground Palace.

Duan Zhang's face changed dramatically.

"Oh no! He's using that book!"

Duan Ping also panicked, shouting loudly.

"Quick! Increase the power!"

Several white-robed people desperately channeled their inner strength, the light net's light grew stronger, pressing down on Jiang Feng.

But it was already too late.

Jiang Feng lightly tapped the page with his finger, a dark blue light shot out from the book, straight to the heavens.

That beam of light struck the star pattern above his head, the entire pattern instantly stopped spinning.

The Underground Palace's trembling stopped, the murals on the walls no longer glowed, and the ground's formation diagram also dimmed.

All seals failed in an instant.

The light net lost the support of the Underground Palace's seal, its power greatly diminished.

Jiang Feng raised his hand and waved, a strong wind swept over, the light net instantly shattered, turning into specks of light that dissipated in the air.

Duan Ping and several white-robed people each spat out a mouthful of blood, stumbling back several steps.

Their faces turned deathly pale, their eyes filled with Shock.

"This... this how could it be possible..."

Duan Ping's voice was trembling.

Duan Zhang's face also completely changed, he looked at the book in Jiang Feng's hand, his eyes full of shock and fear.

He never expected that Jiang Feng would Mastery the power of that book so quickly.

Nor did he expect that the book could actually control the Underground Palace's seal.

Jiang Feng closed the book, put it away in his bosom, looked at Duan Zhang, and said lightly.

"I said before, this method has nothing to do with your Duan Family."

His voice was very calm, but exuded an undeniable authority.

"Now, do you still want to argue?"
