Divine-level Base

Chapter 414: Chapter 414: Slaying Mo Hu

"How is this possible? How could this guy’s Power have increased so much? What kind of Martial Technique is this?"

Mo Hu’s expression changed drastically, his mind reeling in shock. He executed a profound and mysterious Step Technique and retreated explosively.

The Divinity’s threefold increase in Power and 50% increase in agility were terrifyingly effective in actual combat, allowing Shu Feng to heavily wound Mo Hu in a single move. This was the terror of a Divine Life Form; the stronger one was, the more terrifying the enhancement from Divinity became. Thus, the further one progressed, the more terrifying the effects of Divinity would be.

Having grievously injured Mo Hu with one strike, a cold light flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes as he advanced again, slashing at Mo Hu once more.

Demon Dog seized the opportunity to rush forward, viciously swiping a claw at Shu Feng’s back.

Demon Bull, wielding a bronze staff, brutally swung at Shu Feng’s waist from the side.

Demon Sheep was even more insidious, whipping a long lash that struck like a venomous dragon toward Shu Feng’s lower body.

"A bunch of little ants. How annoying!"

A vicious glint flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. With a flick of his wrist, his blade sent three streaks of light flashing across the heads of the three Giant Demons.

The heads of the three Giant Demons instantly flew into the air as a spray of blood erupted.

"Fire!"

Mo Hu gritted his teeth and roared the command. He took out a needle tube and pressed it, aiming at Shu Feng.

That needle tube was called the Divine Sand Demon Needle. Each Demon Needle it fired had the special ability to pierce Gang Qi, and they were coated in a potent poison. Once struck, even a Martial Venerable Level expert would suffer unbearable pain and a drop in strength.

In an instant, a rain of needles shot toward Shu Feng like a meteor shower.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

A series of crisp ringing sounds echoed as the dense rain of needles pierced Shu Feng’s Protective Gang Qi and struck his body, only to be deflected away one after another.

Shu Feng’s Defense was already terrifyingly high. With the additional 50% enhancement from his Defense Divinity, it was even more monstrous. The Divine Sand Demon Needles couldn’t even pierce his skin.

’What terrifying Defense! Was he born with Copper Skin and Iron Bones? This monster!!’

Mo Hu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he continued to retreat explosively.

Dozens of Arrows, imbued with terrifying Profound Qi, shot toward Shu Feng like meteors. Mo Hu’s roar had been a signal for his reinforcements to come and extract him.

Shu Feng executed the Flowing Light Saber Technique. Streaks of blade light flashed, forming a dense curtain that slashed at the Arrows, knocking them all away one by one as he charged straight for Mo Hu.

Mo Hu was a terrifying expert of the Martial Venerable Realm. Whether Shu Feng killed him or suppressed him, the benefits would be immense.

If Mo Hu escaped, it would be a huge headache even for Shu Feng. After all, an expert of the Martial Venerable Realm hiding in the shadows was as dangerous as a hidden viper.

"Damn you, Han Feng! Since you’re so aggressive, let’s just die together!! Demonization!!"

A savage, ferocious light flashed in Mo Hu’s eyes. He crushed a medicinal pill in his mouth, and terrifying Demonic Qi surged from his body. He suddenly swelled in size, his muscles began to writhe madly, and his aura started to skyrocket.

"Prison Void Demon Step!"

Shu Feng’s gaze turned cold. He instantly executed the Prison Void Demon Step, one of the Nine Great Divine Techniques of the Prison Skull Sect. He took a single step and appeared behind Mo Hu as if teleporting, then slashed down with his blade.

A terrifying streak of light flashed across Mo Hu’s head and vanished. His mutating head instantly flew from his body, his eyes filled with disbelief. A torrent of blood spewed from his headless neck, splattering across the ground.

Mo Hu never would have imagined that Shu Feng had mastered a Divine Technique like the Prison Void Demon Step. In the Bi Yao Demon Sect, such a Divine Technique would only be bestowed upon a True Disciple after they had performed peerless service, granting them the right to study it.

Shu Feng thought quietly, ’A Martial Technique like the Flowing Light Blade is still too weak! I need to cultivate the most powerful Divine Techniques of the Bi Yao Demon Sect to truly take advantage of my physical constitution.’

A powerful Martial Technique was extremely important for a Martial Artist. With one, even if their cultivation was slightly weaker, they could still kill enemies of a higher cultivation level in actual combat.

The reason the True Disciples of the Bi Yao Demon Sect and the other Five Great Demon Sects could dominate their peers was that not only was their cultivation terrifying and their physical constitution astonishing, but they also mastered various powerful Divine Techniques on par with the Prison Void Demon Step.

As for one of the Prison Skull Sect’s Nine Great Divine Techniques like the Prison Void Demon Step, Shu Feng didn’t dare to reveal it casually. If he were recognized, he would likely be branded a spy from the Prison Skull Sect. Becoming a True Disciple of the Bi Yao Demon Sect would then be even more difficult.

With Mo Hu slain by Shu Feng’s blade, the Warriors brought by the Twelve Giant Demons immediately broke and scattered in all directions.

The Warriors from the Bi Yao Demon Sect seized the opportunity to rush forward and furiously cut down their enemies, killing all the Warriors the Twelve Giant Demons had brought.

Shu Feng personally took action, killing the experts among the Twelve Giant Demons’ Warriors one by one and reaping their souls.

These souls would accumulate, and with enough of them, he could synthesize a Holy Soul. That way, his Thunder Dragon Eel could evolve into a Tier Six Exotic Beast in one fell swoop.

After slaughtering all the Warriors brought by the Twelve Giant Demons, Shu Feng ignored the protests from the major powers within Qiguang City, directly sealed all the city gates, and blocked all outgoing information.

A large ship departed directly from the port and sailed into the Cyan Demon Sea.

「Several days later.」

A large ship sailed through the Cyan Demon Sea.

Sun Yiluo stood on deck with his hands behind his back, gazing quietly into the distance. His adopted son, Sun Yijian, stood behind him.

A small boat came speeding from a small island.

"Lord Sea-Stepping Demon Marshal, please halt! Ahead is Sea Venerable Island, where the Sea Martial Venerable resides. Lord Sea Martial Venerable does not like to be disturbed by visitors."

A handsome youth in white robes with red lips and white teeth called out from the small boat.

Sun Yiluo said coolly, "Then go and inform the Sea Martial Venerable. Just say that I have important matters to discuss with him."

"Yes, Lord Demon Marshal!"

The youth in white smiled respectfully, then returned to the island on his small boat.

Before long, the sea around the island began to churn, and a giant octopus emerged, the part of it visible above the surface alone reaching fifty meters high.

Standing on the giant octopus’s head was a man—the Sea Martial Venerable of the Sea Demon Association.

’So this is a Sea Monster! The Sea Demon Association controls these terrifying Sea Monsters, giving them the power to attack merchant sea routes. They force us to bow our heads and pay them tribute, or risk having our sea lanes cut off.’

Sun Yiluo’s eyes narrowed slightly as he muttered to himself.

Qiguang City was a commercial city that relied mainly on maritime trade. If its sea lanes were cut off, the entire city would quickly wither.
