The soil in the fifth field was sparkling and lush with plants. Chu Feng's heart skipped a beat. He had indeed been traumatized by the explosion.
As expected, the lightning exploded with a boom. Sweet potatoes emerged from the soil one after another and whizzed out, transforming into silver lightning which began to bombard the area.
His flesh was lacerated and his hair stood on end. Many parts of his body were charred black as arcs of electricity surged through every inch of his skin.
If it weren't for the astonishing amount of energy he had gained after becoming a king level entity, an ordinary person would've long since been reduced to ashes.
"How unlucky!"
Silver light interweaved in the area as sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes danced in the air. Chu Feng had nothing to say.
He only wanted to curse. What the hell was this? Even the eggplants, tomatoes, and sweet potatoes had turned into spirits? Even someone as powerful as him couldn't endure such a chaotic bombardment.
If he were to survive and one day tell others about today's experience, he would probably be laughed at. Almost dying from a sweet potato explosion was simply too embarrassing.
Chu Feng endured the pain and once again used his spiritual energy to move his body. He staggered off the ground in an attempt to escape the fifth field.
The sweet potatoes bounced around and smashed into his body. This kind of suffering was hard to imagine. He felt as though he was about to be cooked alive.
He could clearly smell the fragrance of roasted meat. This wasn't Schiller's, but rather his own.
His faith had wavered. Could it be that he was suffering retribution for roasting king level entities all the time?
Swoosh!
Finally, he broke free from the fifth stepped field and landed on the mountain above. With a bang, he smashed here and couldn't get up for a long time.
"I've escaped?!" Chu Feng was filled with joy. He lay on the ground, not wanting to move at all. He took in large gulps of fresh air greedily.
At this time, the fragrance of the earth and vegetation entered his nose. He felt an unprecedented sense of comfort.
The first thing Chu Feng did was to circulate his breathing technique. Crackling sounds rang out continuously from within his body. That was because the electric arcs were still there and hadn't been completely discharged. They were running amok within his body.
Many parts of his body were numb and almost roasted.
Fortunately, the breathing technique had a miraculous effect on his injuries. He quickly suppressed the pain, and the energy in his body began to repair his injuries.
After a while, he sat up and looked down at the terraced fields below. He frowned deeply. There, purple gold eggplants, dark green cucumbers, scarlet tomatoes, golden pumpkins, and silver sweet potatoes were jumping merrily with dense lightning.
He could already tell that these were rare and strange crops. The plants were real, but the fruits were produced from lightning.
He really wanted to curse out loud. The ancient great powers were too vile, using fruits and vegetables to torment their descendants, and it was even so fatal.
Those plants were very special. They could gather lightning and produce lightning fruits. When hung on the plants, their power was astonishing.
He reckoned that this wasn't even the strongest power. As the world recovered, these plants would probably become even more astonishing and form five lightning fields.
"Inheritance?!"
Chu Feng heard Yellow Cattle's voice transmission and saw a stone tablet in the safe zone. As expected, there was a similar notification.
"There's a hidden lightning technique?"
There were words on the stone tablet, telling the later generations that only by withstanding the lightning and not dying would one be able to obtain the Heavenly Master Demon Subduing Art.
"The ancient heavenly masters often used lightning to subdue demons. Is this the so-called demon subduing art?"
He frowned as he stared at the words on the back of the stone tablet. One had to stay in the terraced fields and silently comprehend the power of lightning in order to obtain the inheritance.
He had just escaped, yet he still had to enter a land of death?
Chu Feng sat down cross-legged and used his breathing technique to recover. At the same time, he looked down for Schiller. The most important thing at the moment was to kill this old bastard.
The other party hadn't come up. Could it be that he had been struck to death?
He couldn't be at ease without seeing Schiller's corpse. This was a ruthless character and wouldn't die so easily.
"Don't tell me this madman happened to know the secret and is comprehending the demon subduing art?" Chu Feng was startled.
With a swoosh, he couldn't sit still any longer. He used his spiritual energy to move himself into the air and looked down. As expected, he saw something strange.
A hazy ball of light had formed in the field with the golden pumpkin. Schiller was sitting there, completely motionless. He was about to turn into a pile of charcoal, but he wasn't dead yet.
At this time, the lightning was no longer striking him. Instead, it had transformed into a screen of light and enveloped him.
"Is this old monster trying to defy the heavens?!" Chu Feng was astonished and then nervous. If Schiller didn't die and obtained the demon subduing art, then he would be in big trouble.
With a swoosh, he braced himself and dived down. Once again, he endured the lightning strikes and arrived at the field where Schiller was. There, he used his flying knife to slash at it.
Clang!
The screen of light was as hard as metal. Sparks flew everywhere as the flying knife slashed at it, but it didn't break.
At the same time, Chu Feng noticed Schiller's state. He had lost his right hand, and now his left hand was resting on a pumpkin seedling. It was as if he was comprehending something. Although his face was charred black, he seemed to be very satisfied.
Chu Feng tried several times, but to no avail. With a swoosh, he left the field and arrived at the first terraced field while enduring the pain of being struck by lightning. He sat down cross-legged and tried to comprehend it.
This was a form of torture. His body was in great pain as the purple lightning coiled around him, almost piercing through his flesh.
He didn't know how Schiller had done it. Perhaps it was an accident, or perhaps he really was extraordinary. Chu Feng felt a sense of urgency.
He held an eggplant seedling in his left hand. The joints in his body crackled as if he was being tempered by lightning. However, it was really effective.
That was because his left hand could produce lightning after severing his fourth shackle. Now that he was comprehending here, it had an astonishing catalytic effect.
Strands of veined patterns appeared and blossomed from the eggplant seedling, taking shape in the palm of his hand.
"This is the demon subduing art?" Chu Feng was astonished.
Legend had it that the heavenly masters of ancient times liked to use talismans to subdue demons. They would throw them out to summon lightning.
Could this be a talisman? Chu Feng was suspicious.
However, it was obviously different from the rumors. He didn't need to draw any talismans himself. These veined patterns appeared on his left palm and condensed into an imprint.
Boom!
He raised his hand and shot out a bolt of lightning from his palm. It struck the ground in the distance, causing the earth and rocks to collapse.
He was astonished to find that the lightning in the field had stopped attacking him. It had actually become gentler.
"It's that easy?" Chu Feng's expression was odd.
He held the eggplant seedling in his hand and captured the strands of veined patterns. He then tried to construct them and they appeared on his palm. Actually, he didn't know the principles behind them.
Was this the so-called comprehension? He was seriously doubtful.
However, Chu Feng didn't care about this. He once again held another eggplant seedling and examined whether it contained different veined patterns.
In the end, he found that all the seedlings in this field were the same. They all had the same veined pattern which appeared clearly on his left palm.
With a swoosh, Chu Feng jumped onto the second terrace. Very soon, he obtained a different type of veined pattern from the cucumber seedling. This made the imprint on his left palm a bit more complicated.
"Isn't this too fast?!"
In truth, if Yellow Cattle were here, he would naturally be able to dispel his doubts. The reason he could comprehend so quickly was because he had obtained the ability to produce lightning after severing his fourth shackle.
Following that, everything went surprisingly smoothly. He obtained more and more veined patterns in succession and a strange lightning symbol appeared on his left palm.
If he didn't use it, there would be nothing there. Once he tried to generate electricity, the symbol would become extremely dazzling and appear.
"It increased my control over electricity by several times!" Chu Feng was astonished.
Now that he had condensed lightning in his left hand, it was much more powerful than before. His power had increased by several times. It was very likely that he would be able to kill ordinary king level entities in one strike!
"This is only the beginning, yet the power of lightning has already doubled. How abnormal." Chu Feng was shaken. The Heavenly Master Demon Subduing Technique was indeed extraordinary.
In ancient times, the beast races were most afraid of lightning. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this technique a demon subduing technique.
In the distance, Schiller was shocked and furious. He had just finished comprehending the lightning patterns on the pumpkin field when all the lightning disappeared. This caused him to feel regretful and apprehensive.
Now, the other four fields had returned to normal. There was no more lightning.
"You've obtained the complete inheritance?!" He stared at Chu Feng unwillingly.
"Go to hell!" Chu Feng shouted. Although his body was charred black and riddled with scars, he was still much stronger than Schiller. The latter had long since become half-crippled.
Boom!
His left palm lit up as lightning runes appeared. A blinding beam of light shot out towards Schiller with a speed even faster than a flying sword.
Schiller was shocked and furious. He understood that the other party had obtained the demon subduing technique from Mount Longhu. This was a terrible situation for him.
He had guessed that this so-called demon subduing technique was a test. Only by comprehending this trial and obtaining the secret inheritance would one have a chance to occupy Mount Longhu.
Boom!
Schiller naturally couldn't just sit and wait for death. Even if he was on the verge of death, he still wanted to fight for his life.
As they attacked, the entire area collapsed. The five terraced fields sank inexplicably as all the crops withered.
Boom!
Earth and stone collapsed, and a large crater appeared in this area. Many broken weapons and skeletons were revealed, all of them ancient.
Chu Feng was astonished. There were many large skeletons of beasts beneath the five terraced fields. According to the ancient people, they were naturally demons.
"How is this possible?!"
Schiller's eyes went wide as he saw some human skeletons. His face was full of shock as he saw some western armor.
It was the Radiant Armor that belonged to the knights of the Holy See.
How many years ago were these people from ancient times? Schiller was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"Eh?!" All of a sudden, he saw a skeleton that was still emitting a faint light. It was definitely the remains of a knight far stronger than him.
His eyes widened as he trembled.
That was because the broken armor on the knight was a relic from the era when the Holy See first appeared. It was an item from over two thousand years ago.
Did the Holy See launch an expedition to the east two thousand years ago when the Holy See first appeared? This completely overturned his understanding. Even someone as powerful as Schiller didn't know about this.
"Die!"
Chu Feng attacked once more, blasting out lightning.
Schiller didn't dare to meet the attack head-on. He felt that he would most likely die if he were to be hit. His current state was too poor.
He rushed towards the remains of the powerful knight. There was a sword hilt with a three-inch long broken blade emitting a silvery radiance.
He suspected that it was left behind by a supreme ancient weapon!
He decided to take a gamble. If he fought against Chu Feng, he would die without a doubt. Moreover, he couldn't escape at the moment because he was in a terrible state.
If that sword hilt was a legendary supreme weapon, it might be able to turn the tide of the battle.
Schiller was extremely fast. He grabbed the hilt of his sword and turned around to face Chu Feng.
Boom!
He was struck by lightning. With a pop, the lower half of his body exploded.
Pfft!
