"A second assassination attempt?"
Zhao Feng paused for a moment, then smiled and said fearlessly, "I do hope that he'll come back."
He had a rough estimate of Supreme Emperor Dark Night's strength. He was at the same level as Demon Emperor Xuan Luo. However, because he was good at assassination, he could kill a Great Emperor with one strike instead of a head-on battle.
However:
Once Zhao Feng was on guard, his eye-bloodline countered this type of assassination.
"Zhao Feng, don't underestimate Supreme Emperor Dark Night's strength. He's ranked on the Black Screen Corner Assassin Rankings. From his ranking, Supreme Emperor Dark Night's strength is at least that of an unrivalled Emperor, and his battle-power is close to that of a Quasi-Sacred Lord. "
Duke Nanfeng shook his head and warned.
He had been ambushed by Supreme Emperor Dark Night while he was in seclusion, so he knew how strong he was.
Quasi-Sacred Lord battle-power?
Zhao Feng's eyebrows rose up. He obviously knew that because of the difference in location, the difference in strength between Emperors was more strict.
In the Ash Gray Sea, a peak Great Emperor was an unrivaled existence below a Holy Master.
However, in the lord dynasty, peak Emperors and Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords were further divided.
In general.
The strength of Emperors was split into four types.
The first type were normal Emperors, such as Emperor Mu Yun and the Cold Moon Emperor.
The second type were peak Emperors, such as Duanmu Qing.
The third type were unrivalled Emperors, such as Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo.
There was something worth mentioning.
The Emperor of Death was almost at the level of an unrivalled Emperor, and some of his forbidden arts even made Sacred Lords wary. However, the Cang Ocean didn't have such a detailed classification.
However, the Emperor of Death's Eye of Death and Dao of the Soul were countered by Zhao Feng.
Even then.
Zhao Feng had to chase after the Emperor of Death for a long time and wear him down before finally killing him. If it was a peak Emperor, it would only take ten breaths.
If it was an unrivalled Emperor that countered Zhao Feng, Zhao Feng might have been the one to lose.
Apart from that.
Apart from these three Emperors, there was another ideal type of battle-power – the battle-power of a Quasi-Sacred Lord!
However, the battle-power of a Quasi-Sacred Lord was on the level of a Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lord. At the very least, they had to be comparable to a Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lord in terms of power, Intent, and other aspects. However, they hadn't completely become a Sacred Lord yet.
Duke Nanfeng had given Supreme Emperor Dark Night an unrivalled Emperor who was close to a Quasi-Sacred Lord.
Of course, this was only a division of "combat power" and had little to do with cultivation.
"If that's the case, then Supreme Emperor Dark Night's strength has almost surpassed the Emperor of Death, Great Emperor Xuan Luo, and myself."
Zhao Feng's eyes flickered.
According to the classification of strength, Zhao Feng's strength definitely surpassed the peak Martial Monarchs. He could be considered an unrivalled Martial Monarch.
After all, he was mainly training his Sacred Lightning Body and Sacred Lightning Dominating Fist when he was fighting Demonic Emperor Xuan Luo, so he didn't use his eye-bloodline.
One thing was certain.
Zhao Feng's strength hadn't reached the level of a Quasi-Sacred Lord. There was a clear difference in soul, power, and Intent.
This meant that Quasi-Sacred Lords would be a big threat to Zhao Feng.
"I'm only half a step away from breaking through, but I'm lucky to be alive. As long as I recover from my injuries, I'll have the battle-power of a Quasi-Sacred Lord. "
Duke Nanfeng sighed.
Hearing that, Zhao Feng and the silver-haired elder looked over in surprise.
Zhao Feng felt that the aura within Duke Nanfeng's body was half a level higher than an Emperor's, and the pressure from his gaze also surpassed peak Emperors by half a level.
This was because Duke Nanfeng was about to successfully break through, but Supreme Emperor Dark Night's assassination stopped him and almost killed him.
Now that he was alive, as long as he recovered from his injuries and recovered his Yuan Qi, he would be comparable to a Quasi-Sacred Lord.
"Your Highness will definitely have good fortune after surviving such a disaster."
The silver-haired elder and company all congratulated him.
Only Duke Nanfeng's expression was slightly dim. He had almost succeeded in breaking through to the Mystic Light Realm mainly because of the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly's Origin pollen.
However, the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly only produced this Origin pollen very few times in its life, and there was a gap of at least one hundred years between each time.
This meant that he might not be able to break through to the Mystic Light Realm next time.
Furthermore.
There was a weird rule when trying to break through to the Mystic Light Realm.
Once the first attempt failed, the chances of success would become lower and lower.
Apparently, this was because the process of breaking through to the Mystic Light Realm would use up some of the Origin of one's soul. Once one failed, this Origin couldn't be recovered.
Therefore.
Any Emperor, whether they were normal Emperors or peak Emperors, would be extremely careful when trying to break through to the Mystic Light Realm.
Unless they had no choice or were confident, they wouldn't try it easily.
Under such circumstances, peerless treasures that could increase the chances of breaking through to the Mystic Light Realm were extremely rare, and they were enough to make the forces of the lord dynasties fight over them.
Only Zhao Feng noticed the slight change in Duke Nanfeng's expression.
"I still have ten portions of the Hundred Origin Sacred Honey. It's best if I can keep three for my Sacred Lightning Body and when I try to break through to the Mystic Light Realm."
Zhao Feng thought.
As his cultivation increased, he felt the value of the Hundred Origin Sacred Honey even more.
Back at Xie Yang Palace, if it wasn't for the fact that he had the substandard God weapon, the Misty Spatial World, Zhao Feng wouldn't have dared to try and obtain the Origin Sacred Honey.
However, it was still extremely dangerous to obtain the Hundred Origin Sacred Honey.
Within the cultivation chamber:
Zhao Feng, the silver-haired elder, and company guarded the Duke for four to five days.
This was the silver-haired old man's suggestion, and it was to guard against Supreme Lord Dark Night's return.
Right now, Duke Nanfeng's injuries hadn't healed yet, and he only had the battle-power of a normal Emperor, so he needed to be protected.
Zhao Feng blamed himself for destroying the Duke's Palace to such an extent.
Over the last four to five days, Duke Nanfeng cultivated without any distractions, and his injuries and Yuan Qi recovered quite a bit.
During this period of time, Supreme Emperor Dark Night didn't return.
With so many experts gathered together, with Supreme Emperor Dark Night's principle of killing in one strike, he naturally wouldn't take the risk.
"Duke, the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly is about to fully recover …."
Before leaving, Zhao Feng waved his hand and handed the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly to the silver-haired elder.
Miao miao!
Within the secret chamber, the little thieving cat and the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly rubbed against each other and reluctantly separated.
At this moment:
A thought appeared in Zhao Feng's mind – could he trade the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly?
However, thinking about it, why would Duke Nanfeng agree to such a precious Ten Thousand Ancient Races Spiritual Pet that could support Duke Nanfeng's heart?
Even if he took out the Hundred Origin Sacred Honey, Duke Nanfeng might not agree to it.
This was just like how the little thieving cat was in Zhao Feng's heart.
"This Zhao Feng …."
Duke Nanfeng looked in the direction that Zhao Feng left in.
The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly in his hand seemed to be very attached to the little thieving cat and Zhao Feng.
Duke Nanfeng could also see how attractive the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly was to Zhao Feng.
"Duke, Black Screen Corner is one of the three super organizations of the underground world, and they usually stay neutral. Who hired an assassin to kill you? "
The silver-haired elder couldn't help but ask.
One could imagine that this would definitely involve the Imperial Court.
Even in the Great Qian Imperial Court, there were many factions and the competition between the factions was centered around a few princes.
Right now, there were only a few princes that had the ability to become the Crown Prince.
Thus, a huge faction was born behind them.
"Before this, I always stayed neutral. The problem is that the Eighth Prince visited a few days ago, and some people don't want me to become a Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lord and affect the balance of the Imperial Court …. "
Duke Nanfeng took a deep breath and furrowed his eyebrows.
The factions within the Great Gan Imperials were extremely complicated, and he couldn't think of anything in a short amount of time.
Within the Duke's Palace:
Zhao Feng moved into a new building that had its own garden, and the environment was even better.
Within the building:
Zhao Feng waved his arm, and a rainbow-colored dumpling appeared in front of him. It was much more tightly bound than before.
The rainbow-colored dumpling seemed to be struggling, but it was very weak.
Zhao Feng's left eye saw the beautiful female in dark green robes within the dumpling.
In reality:
If Zhao Feng really wanted to kill her, this female wouldn't have been able to live until now.
However, he purposely wanted to leave her alive so that he could scout out the situation of Nine Darkness Palace.
This female in dark green robes didn't match the auras of the other four peak Emperors of Nine Darkness Palace, which was why Zhao Feng chose to leave her alive.
Of course.
Zhao Feng wouldn't show any mercy to his enemies.
"Gaze … of … the … God … Eye!"
A surge of purple eye-bloodline power surged from Zhao Feng's left eye and formed a bottomless whirlpool.
A forbidden surge of Soul Dao power appeared in the air.
"Not good!"
Within the rainbow-colored dumpling, Bi Qingyue's body shook, and her body went cold.
Her soul was covered by a cold power and seemed to be locked down. It wasn't under her control and was about to break free.
If she was at her peak, she could still fight back.
However:
She was heavily injured after the battle, mainly due to the effects of the Dream Pollen. Her body and soul became weak, and her battle-power decreased.
In just a breath or two:
A female Yuan Soul with an extraordinary aura was taken out of her body.
"No …!"
Bi Qingyue felt that the Soul Dao eye-bloodline power was like the power of a God, and she couldn't resist it.
Shua!
Bi Qingyue's soul flashed and was sucked into the dimension of Zhao Feng's left eye.
After entering the dimension of Zhao Feng's left eye, Bi Qingyue's soul became even more uncontrollable, and she could be controlled by Zhao Feng.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Zhao Feng circulated some of the power of God Tribulation Lightning and attacked Bi Qingyue's soul.
Bi Qingyue's soul almost fainted.
"Dark Heart Seal!"
A dark purple seal of lightning appeared in Zhao Feng's left eye, and it slowly imprinted itself into the depths of Bi Qingyue's soul along with the aura of God Tribulation Lightning.
The reason why he sucked Bi Qingyue's soul into the dimension of his left eye was to increase the success rate of the Dark Heart Seal.
After all, the other party was a peak Emperor, and her Soul Intent had reached the peak level.
"Please … don't …!"
Bi Qingyue's consciousness was on the verge of fainting, and she even thought about self-destructing her soul.
Unfortunately, her soul seemed to be locked down in the dimension of his left eye, and she couldn't do anything.
Several breaths later:
Zhao Feng's Dark Heart Seal successfully imprinted itself into the depths of Bi Qingyue's soul.
Shua!
With a thought, he sent Bi Qingyue's soul back to her body.
Half a day later:
"Master, my name is Bi Qingyue, and I'm the Pavilion Master of the Ocean Smoke Pavilion. I'm responsible for Nine Darkness Palace's intelligence missions around the continent …."
A calm and elegant female in a palace robe half-knelt in front of Zhao Feng.
