"Dammit, how did things turn out like this!?"
Sacred Lord Dark Shadow cursed as he flew.
Before the Crown Prince trial started, he was sent by Nine Darkness Palace to instigate and threaten the surrounding forces to attack the Ocean Smoke Pavilion.
Their goal was to use the Sacred Lords of the other three-star forces to force Zhao Feng to use his last God Slaying Arrow.
Once the God Slaying Arrow was used, only death awaited Zhao Feng.
However, Nine Darkness Palace quickly sent news to Sacred Lord Dark Shadow after the Crown Prince trial ended.
The upper echelon of Nine Darkness Palace told Sacred Lord Dark Shadow that Zhao Feng already had the strength to kill initial-stage Mystic Light Realm cultivators. Adding on the terrifying horde of beasts, he wouldn't even need to fear a group battle.
One had to know that there were strong and weak Sacred Lords, but it was still hard for initial-stage Mystic Light Realm cultivators to kill those of the same cultivation.
Sacred Lord Dark Shadow had to believe the words of the upper echelon of Nine Darkness Palace, so he found an excuse to leave and hid in the shadows.
He didn't expect to see such a terrifying scene.
Even three initial-stage Mystic Light Realm cultivators wouldn't be able to deal with Zhao Feng, the God Slaying Arrow, the disciples of the Ji Family, and the horde of beasts.
Luckily, Nine Darkness Palace sent a message over early, or else he would have died here.
"What speed!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows felt the wind and lightning behind her, as well as the cold killing intent.
Sacred Lord Dark Shadow specialized in escaping, but he couldn't even shake off Zhao Feng right now.
"Dark Night Flowing Shadow!"
The Sacred Lord of Shadows turned into a dark streak of light and instantly shot into the air, traveling tens of thousands of miles.
"Lightning Wings Spatial Flash!"
Zhao Feng circulated the Fire of Wind Lightning and used another spatial flash.
Sacred Lord Dark Shadow was the fastest initial-stage Mystic Light Realm cultivator Zhao Feng had ever met. Zhao Feng wouldn't be able to catch up to him in a short amount of time.
"Sky Locking Bow!"
A golden arrow of Wind Lightning condensed on the dark silver bow in Zhao Feng's hand, and it shot through a part of the limitless ocean with a Whoosh.
Boom!
The next time the golden arrow of Wind Lightning appeared, it pierced through Sacred Lord Dark Shadow's chest.
"Dammit, this brat!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows paused for a moment.
This arrow contained the violent power of wind and lightning, as well as the destructive power of Tribulation Lightning. It was extremely effective against a Sacred Leader's Sacred Body.
After releasing that attack, Zhao Feng used the Lightning Wings Spatial Flash again and closed the distance between them.
An obscure psychic power flashed through the sea of mist.
The Mark of the God Eye had been successfully branded!
When Zhao Feng imprinted the Mark of the God's Eye, the Holy Lord of Shadows was still in pain from the Wind Lightning Arrow. That weak feeling was instantly ignored.
Whoosh!
The Holy Lord of Shadows felt danger, so she ignored her injuries and turned into a streak of dark light that shot into the air.
"Let's see where you can run to!"
Zhao Feng floated in the air and closed his eyes. He sensed the location of the Holy Lord of Shadows and pulled the bowstring.
Swoosh!
A dark purple arrow infused with a soul attack pierced through the air.
Poof!
Zhao Feng could feel that his soul attack had hit the Holy Lord of Shadows.
"How could that be? I'm so far away, but the Sky Locking Bow didn't lock onto me! "
The Holy Lord of Shadows' heart jumped.
He obviously knew about the Sky Locking Bow, but Zhao Feng wasn't chasing after him, and he didn't feel like he was locked onto by the Sky Locking Bow. It was weird that that arrow had hit him.
Just as the Holy Lord of Shadows was thinking:
Another arrow of light flew over.
The Holy Lord of Shadows immediately flew out in an arc, but he was still hit by the arrow.
He didn't feel like he was locked onto, but the arrow still followed him.
"Damn, let's leave!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows didn't dare to stop and continued to run.
However, one after another, the light arrows hit him, leaving him nowhere to hide!
"Dammit, this definitely isn't the Sky Locking Bow. Could it be an ancient divine bow?"
The Holy Lord of Shadows' body was scorched black, and he was in a sorry state. This definitely wasn't the Sky Locking Bow's specialty.
He kept on running, but he was unable to escape from the arrows. In the end, the Holy Lord of Shadows arrived at a teleportation array in a city and teleported to another city.
"I'll take his life first!"
Zhao Feng put away the Sky Locking Bow.
If the distance was too far, the power of the Sky Locking Bow would decrease, and the damage it could do to the Holy Lord of Shadows would increase. If he wasn't able to kill the Holy Lord of Shadows in the end, this weird phenomenon would make him suspicious, and the Mark of the God's Eye might have been wiped away with the help of the upper echelon of Nine Darkness Palace.
It was better to keep him alive since he might be of use in the future.
As long as it wasn't a Sacred King or a Demigod, it would be very hard to detect Zhao Feng's Mark of the God's Eye.
The enmity between Zhao Feng and Nine Darkness Palace had reached a level where only one side would be able to stop.
Right now, Zhao Feng was an important member of the Crown Prince's faction, and Nine Darkness Palace couldn't do anything to him in the open.
Otherwise, it would seem that the Thirteenth Prince wanted to take the position of Crown Prince and use the faction behind him to weaken the Ninth Prince.
Even if the Sacred Emperor and Empress liked the Thirteenth Prince, he would have no chance of becoming the Crown Prince if he did something like that.
At this moment, Zhao Feng and the Ninth Prince were on the same boat.
If something happened to the Ninth Prince and he lost the position of Crown Prince, it would be time for Nine Darkness Palace to kill Zhao Feng.
Whoosh!
Zhao Feng waved the armguard in his hand, and his figure started to fade as a layer of silver light appeared.
Weng ~ Shua!
In the next instant, Zhao Feng appeared in the air above the Ocean Smoke Pavilion.
Sii!
The golden-armored male, the forces of the Ghost Fire Clan, and the Eight Star Tower instantly felt a chill run down their spines.
Many experts were trying to find a chance to escape, but they were scared by Zhao Feng's sudden appearance.
At this moment, the members of the Ocean Smoke Pavilion had escaped, and Supreme Emperor Dark Night, Old Monster Xu, and company were being treated.
Bi Qingyue relaxed when she saw Zhao Feng return.
Everyone was busy outside the Ocean Smoke Pavilion.
Only the forces of the Ji Family, the Eight Star Tower, and the Ghost Fire Clan were left in the sky.
"Zhao Feng, did you take care of the Sacred Lord of Shadows?"
The golden-armored male asked.
The Sacred Lord of Shadows was famed for his ability to hide and escape. It was already very good that Zhao Feng was able to find the Sacred Lord of Shadows.
Since Zhao Feng had returned so quickly, it was hard to say if he had taken care of the Sacred Lord of Shadows.
Ji Lan and those from the Ji Family were also surprised.
"The Ghost Fire Clan will become a subsidiary force of Supreme Emperor Dark Night's assassination organization. Anyone who doesn't listen to orders will be killed. Now, let's talk about the compensation from the Eight Star Tower."
Zhao Feng announced the fate of the Ghost Fire Clan before looking at the golden-armored male.
Although the disciples and Elders of the Ghost Fire Clan were unwilling, there was nothing they could do.
Once a Sacred Lord-level Grand Elder died, even if they didn't join Zhao Feng's forces, other forces would come to deal with them.
"Thank you, Master!"
Supreme Emperor Dark Night sent a message through the Dark Heart Seal.
The Ghost Fire Clan was a force that cultivated the Dao of Ghosts, and they had much more potential than the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan.
This way, his assassination organization would be able to truly develop.
The golden-armored male's heart shook.
Zhao Feng completely ignored what he said and directly talked about compensation.
Furthermore, Zhao Feng personally announced the fate of the Ghost Fire Clan before talking about compensation.
The golden-armored male and the members of the Eight Star Tower felt bitter in their hearts. It would be fine if Zhao Feng offered some compensation.
However, Zhao Feng didn't say anything, so they didn't know how much compensation they should give. If it was too little, Zhao Feng might be unhappy, but if it was too much, they would lose out.
"The Eight Star Tower will take responsibility for all the losses that the Ocean Smoke Pavilion caused this time. Furthermore, the Eight Star Tower will give the Ocean Smoke Pavilion a certain amount of resources every year, including manpower."
The golden-armored male was silent for a while before finally speaking.
"Also, join the Ninth Prince's force."
Zhao Feng spoke after hearing this. His tone was firm and unquestionable.
The expressions of the golden-armored male and the Elders of the Eight Star Tower became grim.
If the Ninth Prince had the same force and strength as the Fourth Prince, the golden-armored male would join without Zhao Feng even needing to say anything.
However, the Crown Prince himself wasn't strong enough, and the Fourth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince, and the Seventh Prince, who were extremely strong, wouldn't just sit there and wait for death.
The Ninth Prince's chances of becoming the Sacred Emperor were extremely low if he continued to be the Crown Prince.
"Fine."
At this moment, only those from the Eight Star Tower were left. They couldn't run away or win, so what else could they do?
The golden-armored male and the Elders of the Eight Star Tower felt extremely frustrated.
"You can leave now."
Zhao Feng straightforwardly said.
Those from the Ji Family took in a deep breath. Just like that, Zhao Feng took in a three-star force and forced another three-star force to join the Ninth Prince.
Zhao Feng brought the members of the Ji Family into the Ocean Smoke Pavilion after dealing with this.
Zhao Feng could tell what Sacred Lord Star Demon wanted, but he didn't know if this was what the Eighth Prince wanted.
However, it was already good enough that the Ji Family could stand behind the Ninth Prince. The Crown Prince's overall strength would finally increase.
Three days later, the Ocean Smoke Pavilion was reorganized and returned to normal. The Eight Star Tower also sent over the promised resources.
Just what Zhao Feng had obtained from the Divine Illusion Dimension and the Imperial Tombs wasn't enough for him to develop such a large force.
"I'll go visit Senior Star Demon in a few days."
Zhao Feng said goodbye to Ji Lan.
Zhao Feng hadn't finished looking through Sacred Lord Star Demon's private stash yet. The Purple Star Tower was a great place to cultivate, and he had the Eyes of Samsara to investigate as well.
Zhao Feng would definitely need to go to the Ji Family.
However, before that, Zhao Feng needed to stay in his territory and prepare everything.
Within the Misty Spatial World:
The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly had used the Hundred Origin Sacred Honey and was in a deep sleep.
The Sky Shaking Golden Ape also showed signs of breaking through under the little thieving cat's care.
After the Crown Prince trial ended, Zhao Feng returned, and an invisible draconic providence surrounded the Ocean Smoke Pavilion.
Zhao Feng went around the Ocean Smoke Pavilion, the Ten Thousand Sacred Clan, and Supreme Emperor Dark Night's assassination force before returning to the Ocean Smoke Pavilion and entering seclusion.
The focus of his seclusion was obviously to cultivate the Soul Recovery Divine Technique and comprehend the Soul Splitting Technique.
A month later. Zhao Feng's Lightning Soul Body was completely purple and glowed with a faint light. It was as if it had a mind of its own and had left the boundaries of a soul body.
There were many reasons for this.
Firstly, when Zhao Feng's soul merged with the God's Spiritual Eye, an unknown change had happened.
Secondly, when his God's Eye evolved, the purple Soul Sea and God Tribulation Lightning symbols merged with his soul, forming his Lightning Soul Body.
Lastly, with the help of many treasures and the Soul Recovery Divine Technique, he had finally reached the 8th level.
"I can start cultivating the first level of the Soul Splitting Technique now."
Zhao Feng's heart moved slightly.
At this moment, his soul had reached the requirements that the person who wrote the Soul Splitting Technique had mentioned, and it even exceeded them.
Although the Soul Recovery Divine Technique hadn't reached the peak yet, the activity of Zhao Feng's soul had already surpassed the description of the 8th level of the Soul Recovery Divine Technique.
"Once I successfully split my soul, I can place the Eye of Death on my soul."
