Chapter 501: An Exceptional Volume
Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

Li Chengfeng, a wealthy and acclaimed prodigy from the Xilin clan, was now dead. He had been killed by Chu Feng within the sea region and had become a drizzle of bloody rain, falling into the vast ocean.

For a moment, those on the island were wide-eyed and incredibly shocked. The Xilin clan wasn't an ordinary clan—they were a top-notch race within the universe.

Many of those present couldn't even comprehend comparing themselves to Li Chengfeng as there were great disparities. Yet now he had been slaughtered by Chu Feng, who smashed him apart midair with his bare fists!

"Has the Xilin clan deteriorated over the years?" Some couldn't believe it.

This was because when they are mentioned, one would always think of strong, peerless geniuses. They had outstanding innate talents and had produced terrifying prodigies.

Above all, the Xilin clan originated from the Earth with their bloodline being founded on the planet.

Chu Feng was also born here, but relatively speaking he wasn't the descendant of a pureblood in the eyes of foreigners. He could only be considered as an offspring from a strong race, but with a mottled bloodline.

It was exactly because of this that before the fight had started many had thought Chu Feng was inferior to Li Chengfeng due to his lineage and insufficient innate qualities.

But now they watched the scene with a glimmer in their eyes, each and every one of them astonished.

"It's not that the Xilin clan is weak, it's that this Chu Feng is too difficult to deal with. Although he comes from a now-depreciated planet, he is, after all, a descendant of experts from back then!"

"I have a theory. Perhaps he has achieved atavism and thus the power of his bloodline has become stronger. As a result, he can suppress the purebred Xilin clan!"

There was a hubbub upon the island. Divine sons and saintesses from different galaxies were all visibly moved—this was a result brought about by pure combat without any other tricks.

If it had been the battle of Mount Tai, then there would've still been people questioning about it. But now they drew in breaths of cold air. There was nothing more compelling than a prodigy from one of the top-notch races, the Xilin clan, being killed by Chu Feng.

"Ah…"

A roar came from the sea. It sounded like a mournful howl from a wounded wild beast.

It turned out to be the young man dressed in silver armor with delicate facial features. Before Chu Feng and Li Chengfeng had started their fight, he had irreverently provoked the native so that he wouldn't escape and fight a decisive battle instead.

At the time, he was laidback and contented and had not taken Chu Feng seriously. He had jested cheerfully with Li Chengfeng and disregarded Chu Feng.

But now he was full of grief. He was so angered that his blazing eyes had almost popped out. His hair flew up frantically and dazzling radiance flickered on his silver armor.

He held a large shiny halberd in his hand brimming with a burning murderous intent as though it were suffused with fluctuating divine light. It was extremely terrifying.

"You killed my little brother!"

The entire Xilin clan was incredibly gifted. They had cold and tenacious dispositions, and each and every one of them was rather difficult to deal with. Yet now this man was trembling and his state of mind was a little out of control.

"'I'll kill you too!" This was Chu Feng's reply. He was even more domineering than the Xilin clan.

The man held an icy stare. He didn't come over but he let go of the large halberd in his hand. He transformed into a bolt of bright lightning, breaking through the sound barrier and erupting into an awe-inspiring splendor. Exceptionally glaring, it advanced towards Chu Feng.

This was a spiritual art!

The average person would've focused on controlling small, sharp blades, yet to one's surprise, he handled a large halberd. It was beyond common sense.

Needless to contemplate, his spiritual power was awfully powerful and surpassed that of an ordinary person.

Boom!

The sound of a blast resonated through the air as a burst of whist mist came forth. The large shiny, sharp halberd was glowing with flames and pummeled towards Chu Feng's head with terrifying energy.

Chi!

Chu Feng also pulled out a sword. It was quite small and short in comparison. A cascade of brilliant red light filled the whole sky like a red waterfall as it shot out and blocked the big halberd.

Clang Clang Clang...

Sparks flew out in all directions. A blinding light burst forth from the violent showdown between the two.

People were momentarily dazzled. The large shiny halberd transformed into a fierce white tiger, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. The sea parted where it passed as the immense volume of water evaporated away, almost exposing the bottom of the sea.

This was a terrifying spiritual art capable of bestowing life upon this big halberd. Its transformation into a ferocious animal was a horrifying sight to behold.

"I visualized a white tiger and used starlight to refine its consciousness. It carries outstanding spiritual art as well as the soul of a ferocious beast. This way it can handle weapons. It's not something a person like you who comes from an unorthodox background can compare to."

The man dressed in silver armor muttered. A beam flourished from between his eyebrows and the imprint of a white tiger came into view, branded on his forehead. It seemed incredibly menacing.

This was his true form, and it too had signs of turning into a white tiger. It was ever more fierce and carried an aura of terror!

It was clear that he was once a prodigy in the visualization realm who had crippled himself in order to cross the border. His spiritual power was his strongest attribute.

Chu Feng also knew Xilin clan—the Imperial Sword technique. But now it seems that his was relatively trivial when compared to that of the Xilin clan.

Wielding his brilliant red sword, he stood off against the big shining halberd. He slashed, turned, thrust and so on, but all his techniques and skills weren't as good as his opponent's.

"Today I, Li Chengyun, will not only kill you, but I'll also massacre your whole family to avenge my brother!" The man dressed in silver armor said with a chill.

At this moment, his transformation was terrifying. He was no longer delicate and was now showing signs of beastification. His whole body was filled with a silver radiance, especially on his face, as he turned into a white tiger.

Then, his back became arched and the shape of a tiger became prominent, snarling as he became ever more realistic. His entire figure was wrapped in a piercing white light and was showing signs of turning into a white tiger.

Those on the island took in gulps of cold air. This was a technique from the visualization realm. Normally, one wouldn't be able to recover so quickly after debilitating one's own cultivation to cross the border.

But this Li Chengyun was almost capable of using some visualization techniques.

However, it wasn't enough. Although he visualized a white tiger, he wasn't able to complete it in the end.

"Bang!"

Chu Feng swung his fist. He was aware that his knowledge of spiritual arts was paltry and not anything complex, so he didn't use it as his main approach. Instead, he put his physical arts to use.

He tread carefully—the Demon Ox Fist and Demon Flood Dragon Fist were both profound secret techniques. He decisively put them to use, using physical arts to combat against spiritual art.

Yellow Ox had once said that these two fighting techniques would level up alongside his progress through the realms. After he had entered the carefree realm they would advance with him and their intensity would rapidly increase.

Therefore at the moment Chu Feng hadn't used a mix of the fighting techniques but had only shown one set.

Only with actual combat could he test the methods. This was precisely the moment for him to temper his fighting techniques and see how great the power of the Demon Ox Fist was.

Bang!

Chu Feng used his body to withstand the large shiny halberd. He threw his fist at it amidst an overflow of energy. This brought about a horrifying shock wave and a huge explosion broke out in the sea.

"So you want to kill my whole family? Then I'll send you all to hell first!" Chu Feng shouted.

This was only the first strike, but he could already feel that Demon Ox Fist was not the same as before. Its power had increased and it could now handle the big halberd.

Following this, the sea was shaken as he brandished his fist. It was as though a primordial ox was roaring and howling, crushing the ground into pieces and making the sea evaporate.

"The power has increased, but it's not quite a fundamental change," frowned Chu Feng. Though he was in midst of an intense battle he was still pondering over this.

Rumble!

Using energy forms fused with the fighting technique, he wanted to directly bury the opponent to death. In just a split second, he shot out thirty-odd rugged boulders.

Li Chengyun's complexion shifted. He didn't dare to take this blow and fell back rapidly, controlling the big halberd from far away. He dodged the energy forms, looking for a chance to launch a ferocious attack.

At this point, he suddenly began to cry out loudly, issuing a terrifying sound which carried with it an penetrative spiritual power. He launched a frantic spiritual attack against Chu Feng.

This was because Li Chengfeng knew just how terrifying Chu Feng's energy forms were, and that it was already on the dark horse rankings. He couldn't let the latter put them to full use and had to obliterate him in the spiritual domain.

"Spiritual cage, suppress!" He shouted.

One after another, beams of dazzling white light flew out from between his eyebrows. They each transformed into light pillars and formed a spiritual cage. It disregarded space and arrived in an instant to seal Chu Feng's consciousness.

"This is a spiritual art of the Xilin clan!" Someone cried out in alarm far away.

Chu Feng had goosebumps all over his body—he had a feeling this spiritual art was going to be hard to deal with. Quickly he altered his breathing technique so that his physical body and his spirit were breathing as one. His body shone as it became divine and immaculate, and his blood energy and spirit condensed into one in order to protect his body!

Although he hadn't learned much spiritual art and his knowledge was relatively shallow, he had still grasped some of its principles. The physical body sustained the mind and spirit, and as it was rich in blood it could protect the spirit.

At this moment, his physical body was fully occupied and his spirit was circulating the breathing technique, emitting a splendorous radiance as though a sun were burning within him.

Chu Feng was calm now. He felt as though his body and mind were unprecedentedly powerful. He had no fear for his opponent's spiritual attacks!

In addition, when he attempted a counterattack, the white light pillars forming the prison outside his body immediately broke, causing Li Chengfeng to cry out in agony.

"You…" Li Chengfeng was shocked.

This was because he could feel the other person's spirit and blood energy grow terrifyingly intense. Just what methods had this native learned for him to create such a sign?

"Could it be that you obtained our mother planet's techniques?!" He astonished.

The breathing technique on their mother planet was the Xilin clan's greatest regret. They had learned many earth-shattering secret techniques but had not had a chance with that breathing technique.

Yet that was the one which was most precious. To master that breathing technique would mean obtaining everything else. They would be able to derive all arts, including spiritual arts.

In the end, they had only found incomplete volumes. They contained only a small part of the method, and it was information other supreme groups had also managed to obtain.

"I see, I've figured it out. I can actually imitate the spiritual prison he formed just now," Chu Feng realized at this point.

It was also at this point that he grew stumped for words. Because everything became clear only after he had used the breathing technique the Yellow Ox had taught him.

"Dao Induction? No, more like Robbery Induction!" Chu Feng muttered to himself. [1]

Using this breathing technique, he analyzed the basics of other person's spiritual art in an instant. He was practically stealing the secret method.

"That's wrong too. I still need to comprehend it myself and develop my own spiritual technique instead of following his old ways."

Chu Feng began to comprehend more and more. At this moment he thoroughly understood the importance of breathing techniques. It was no wonder that ancient almighty masters had said, one can abandon all apart from breathing techniques as they were fundamental!

Secret methods could be deducted from high-quality breathing techniques themselves.

And it was at this time that Chu Feng, who was still putting his physical Kung Fu to use, pumped his great fist into the sky. It made waves jolt and undulate as mist flooded into the high skies.

Now, the shadow of the ox in the Demon Ox Fist disappeared, but its powers increased further.

"Yes, Yellow Ox had once said that in total there are seven fighting techniques, including Demon Ox Fist and Demon Flood Dragon Fist. They originated from seven branches atop a strange tree, and the seven great masters had cut a branch off each. From within they comprehended wondrous theories, and each obtained a fighting technique."

Chu Feng realized that back then the great master from the Demon Ox race had managed to receive this technique, and had naturally developed the Demon Ox Fist. As Chu Feng was human, it would, of course, be different as the fighting technique evolved and returned to its origins.

He was instantly convinced that the seven fighting techniques would together make an earth-suppressing supreme technique!

Even now, he could feel the difference. He had roughly grasped a terrifying physical fighting technique and it was incredibly frightening!

Chu Feng had gained immense benefits in the spiritual realm and physical realm almost at the same time!

He absent-mindedly became aware that the breathing technique Robbery Induction had made both his physical Kung Fu and spiritual art evolve!

At this moment Li Chengfeng had lost all hope as his spiritual prison was collapsing. His spiritual power was rapidly weakening and there was no way to recover it.

"How can I lose?!" Li Chengfeng found it hard to accept because he could almost use part of his spiritual energy from the visualization level.

Yet now his mind had taken serious damage!

"It must be that kind of breathing technique, you… actually obtained it!" He was falling back with a terrified expression on his face.

But Chu Feng had just learned of the World's End Near at Hand and there was no way he would give up this opportunity. His opponent's spirit was subsiding and weakening, so this was the perfect opportunity to kill him.

Bang!

Chu Feng attacked, transforming into a thunderbolt. With a flash, he busted out his brand new physical fighting technique and blasted Li Chengyun apart with great violence, turning him into a bloody mist.

"Kill!"

The remaining two Xilin young experts were astonished. They had guessed some things from Li Chengfeng's words. Their eyes grew feverish as they became filled with murderous intent, and rushed towards Chu Feng.

[1] Dao and Robbery have the same pronunciation.
