Xiao Hei was like a child, competing with the dog. He saw the dog devour the sea beasts and bite another one. He chewed it a few times and swallowed it. Now that he was in beast form, he was indeed eating very quickly, but the scene was a little bloody.
Uh … Yuchi Jinmei covered her eyes in fright. She thought Xiao Hei was a cool man, but why did he do such a thing?
Beasts were beastly, even divine beasts were no exception. Xiao Hei had been in human form for a long time, but he couldn't change his beastly nature. Of course, devouring like this had an effect. It could replenish his energy. But the problem was that Little Black's devouring had delayed the process. Don't forget that Du Feng, Yuchi Jinhai, and Yuchi Jinmei were still on his back.
They were brothers, after all. Although Xiao Hei was a bit willful, Du Feng had to help. He used the Sanguine Flying Swords to kill the surrounding mermen, leaving the sea beasts to Xiao Hei. He used his claws to slap them to death while he used his mouth to bite them. He was having a great time eating.
Their progress was slow, but they weren't far from the city walls. Under normal circumstances, the God Emperor sea beasts wouldn't chase them here. Because the City Lord was here, if they chased after them, they would definitely be in danger.
The city lord had been waiting for a chance. As long as the God Emperor sea beasts came near, he would attack without hesitation. One should know that killing a Divine Emperor Realm sea monster was more useful than killing dozens of Divine Emperor Realm mermen.
It was the same the other way around. If Sea City lost a God Emperor, it would be a greater loss than a hundred God Emperors. First of all, God Emperors weren't strong enough. After all, not every god emperor was as fierce as Du Feng. Most of them were only average.
Moreover, it wasn't easy for God Emperors to become God Emperors. Not even one in a hundred would succeed. Those who did, to put it bluntly, needed time. The Divine World needed a lot of talents, and they couldn't wait. This was also the reason why the God Realm welcomed the cultivators from the lower realms.
If the Primordial Celestial Race wanted to stabilize the God World, they would need to cooperate with the human cultivators, as well as the Yao Gods and Demon Gods. It was just like how the City Lord had to protect Du Feng and the other cultivators when they rushed to the city wall.
"Kill!"
Du Feng and the others stopped running after they were chased out. Instead, they turned back to fight. Because they were sure that the Divine Emperor Realm sea monster wouldn't chase them here. Since that was the case, he should go on a killing spree and earn more battle merits.
When the mammoth Fey Immortal was eaten by the Heaven Devouring Snake, everyone was scared out of their wits. However, the Heaven Devouring Snake was not stupid. It immediately dove back into the sea after successfully swallowing it. After all, this place was close to the shore, and the seawater was relatively shallow. If he got any closer, his body would be exposed. At that time, the City Lord standing on the city wall wouldn't be polite anymore.
Without the threat of the Heaven Devouring Snake, everyone could relax. This was especially true for Xiao Hei, who maintained his bestial form and fought with great vigor. His four claws slapped everywhere, and the golden electric arcs on his body whipped everywhere. From time to time, he would spit out a ball of lightning that bombarded the sea.
Du Feng frowned when he saw this because Xiao Hei's way of fighting was somewhat inappropriate. His lightning balls attacked almost indiscriminately, and no one could withstand the explosions. Hence, everyone stayed far away from him, afraid of being accidentally injured. Of course, Xiao Hei was his brother, and it was only right for him to earn more battle merits. Hence, there was no need to stop him.
Even the City Lord had tacitly approved of Xiao Hei's fighting style, so there was no need for Du Feng to stop him. After all, a genius was stronger than a hundred idiots. Frankly speaking, even if Xiao Hei accidentally injured a few Sea City residents, he believed that the City Lord wouldn't hold it against him. The battlefield was so chaotic, who could care about who?
Du Feng didn't stay idle either. He released all one hundred Blood Splitting Flying Swords. He urged them to kill everywhere, specifically looking for soft-bodied sea beasts or Fishmen to kill. This was because the Blood Splitting Flying Swords were brittle and easily shattered when they touched a hard shell. Although the soft-bodied sea beasts were fast and had powerful attacks, their defenses were relatively weak.
Interesting. The City Lord looked at the crystal ball in his hand. According to the information on it, Xiao Hei's battle merits surpassed Du Feng's, and he was ranked first. Du Feng didn't use the sure-kill technique of the Vast Expanse Sword Art, so he was ranked second. As for the third place, it was still the Silver Thunder Nine Diagrams.
The Silver Thunder Nine Diagrams should have been fighting inside with the Silver Thunder Eight Diagrams, but in order to cover his son, the Silver Thunder Ten Diagrams' retreat, he also ran to the coastal position. Then, he used the area-of-effect thunder-attribute technique and began to kill a large number of enemies. His battle merits were also rising rapidly, since he had the drive to surpass Du Feng.
The Thunderclap Ninth Heaven technique was indeed terrifying. It covered a very large area, and basically attacked indiscriminately. Hence, he and Xiao Hei were in a bad situation, and everyone avoided them from afar. However, this also had a weakness, and that was, there would be a break every time the technique was released. During the break, he would use a long metal whip to clean up the surrounding sea beasts, in case of sneak attacks.
Although the killing range of Du Feng's one hundred Blood Breaking Flying Swords was not as wide as the Thunderclap Ninth Heaven, but fortunately, it was continuous and there would be no break. Seeing that the Silver Thunder Nine Diagrams' battle merits were about to surpass him, the result was that they pulled apart again during the break.
Why didn't Du Feng go all out to fight for the first place? With his strength, it would definitely be no problem for him to take the first place.
The reason was very simple, he didn't want to take the first place, and he couldn't let the City Lord help him raise the Three Layers of Cultivation. Because there were too many secrets in his body, and he couldn't let others pry into them. If the City Lord helped him raise the Cultivation by force, his spiritual awareness would definitely take the opportunity to pry into his body. At that time, if the secret was exposed, it would be troublesome.
In the sea of consciousness, Du Tulong was now strong, so he probably wouldn't be discovered. But the secrets of the Underworld Dog, the Wood Spirit Girl, and the Towering Tree in the small world of the necklace, Du Feng also didn't want others to discover them.
Hence, he simply gave this opportunity to Xiao Hei. In any case, they were all his good brothers, and it was not bad to let him raise the Three Layers of Cultivation. He only needed to get second place, and then use his battle merits to exchange for some medicinal pills and technique books.
Du Feng's plan was very good, but things often didn't change according to people's ideas.
"Boom … Boom …"
