“You sure are strong. According to the strength of the divine clothes you’re wearing, you can bore through a planet. How can you be so cheeky? You haven’t softened a bit!”

Chu Feng hadn’t yet worked off his anger. He had taken a step and visited him, making it so that Wei Tiansheng was so angry his chest could burst, but his lips were still sealed. His spirit was defeated. Indeed, he could neither shout nor hold his own.

Whenever his innards glowed and he transferred his spirit, Chu Feng held nothing back as he used the flying spear to jab at him.

Pft!

Wei Tiansheng coughed out a tooth along with his blood and was about to lose consciousness. This made him feel more ashamed than ever before.

Who was he? The child of Wei Heng and beloved son of the “Ninth in History”. He had been raised from youth not with the goal of becoming a saint, but with the goal of one day becoming a Heaven Illuminator.

Yet today, he was experiencing an incomparably dark day. Even if he survived, his life would forever have a shadow.

Pop!

Chu Feng kicked all of Wei Tiansheng’s teeth out. None could dare believe a saint’s teeth would fall out!

Not only did Chu Feng not give up, he instead became more intense. He would occasionally use the azure flying spear to stab him, making the latter’s spiritual power unable to condense.

At the same time, Chu Feng used the dark, faint shield as a large palm. He spun it around and madly threw it at Wei Tiansheng—the latter was given such a thrashing that he almost didn’t look like a person anymore! His bones broke and his muscles snapped as his body changed shapes.

Up until now, Wei Tiansheng had been as miserable as he had wanted. Flames shot from his eyes, and he wanted to let out a roar through his consciousness.

Yet in the end, he felt a sharp pain between his brows. The point of the spear had stabbed him. His eyesight went black. He had been twisted to death by a sacred device, and his spirit had almost been completely destroyed.

Wei Tiansheng found it truly unbearable, especially when he discovered those metal divine clothes became sparkling and transparent. He could already see the two ladies inside!?

No! One of them was a young man, but how could he be so delicate? Such a pretty mess of a guy was tormenting him!?

Wei Tiansheng couldn’t accept it and become so angry he repeatedly spat blood and his eyes burned with fury. He stared at the young man and thought, was this truly the previous Chu Feng from Earth?

He was practically on the verge of madness. A pure-eyed teenager of all people was trampling his dignity and making him feel so pained he wished he were dead!

If it were an old monster, he could admit defeat, and if it were a saint, he could tolerate it as well—but how could he endure being beaten up like this by a youngster!?

If this person were an adult, it would have been better, but this was completely different. He was only a teenager!?

“No staring!”

Chu Feng put on the divine clothes and stepped over. Wei Tiansheng’s eyes first emitted a red light, then a green light, and then a blue light. This was a manifestation of his blood flow rising, which then turned to fury, and finally turned to derangement.

He fought with all he had to ignite all his blood essence and detonate the source within his body so as to destroy Chu Feng indiscriminately.

“Nephew, it’s useless!” mocked Chu Feng.

By wearing the divine clothes, his perceptivity exceeded even that of an arhat, so naturally, he detected this at the first moment. He directly retreated and used the Heavenly Umbrella to suppress him.

Boom!

This naturally sacred object fell and spun so rapidly it ripped apart the void and formed a black hole. It guided inexhaustible energy inward, causing Wei Tiansheng’s energy to disappear without a trace.

Most importantly, the Heavenly Umbrella suppressed Wei Tiansheng and caused the lower half of his body to disappear in a rising bloody mist. It completely disappeared!

Wei Tiansheng was thoroughly deposed. All of the skills he had acquired through cultivation were stripped away, and in an instant, it was as though he had aged a hundred years. He had originally been quite young, though now his hair was turning white and wrinkles appeared.

“Uncle Ming, you still want to attack?” asked Chu Feng.

“Forget it. I don’t want to see him,” came Uncle Ming’s feeble voice.

Chu Feng wasn’t willing to attack again, either. He released Wei Tiansheng and said, “I’ll give you a chance to say your dying words.”

“My father Wei Heng will personally depose you. He’ll make you wish you were dead!” Wei Tiansheng let out a furious roar. He had been stifled back until now; he was so sullen he couldn’t even utter words. Melancholy filled his chest, and his entire being was about to burst open.

Chu Feng was indifferent as he said, “Wei Juntuo and his eggs? I obliterated his humanity. Sooner or later, I’ll cook him!”

Wei Tiansheng’s mouth was gaping. He wanted to say more, but Chu Feng directly took out a dark red, long blade and didn’t give him the opportunity to speak. “I told you I’d only allow you to say one sentence. Don’t think of saying anything else! Shut up!”

Then he lifted his hand and sliced downward with the blade. This was the Reincarnation Blade. He was going to behead Wei Tiansheng!

Wei Tiansheng was beyond depressed. At the moment before his death, he felt his body burning with hot anger and the flames of resent. He had never seen such a despicable enemy. He didn’t even let him bellow and vent his feelings one last time. He was absolutely disgraceful!

The shield, azure flying spear, and Reincarnation Blade all stopped him from speaking and shook his spiritual power loose.

Although he was struggling, it was useless. He felt a type of terror because his flesh and consciousness were both being annihilated. He was approaching death after being cut by the blade, and his body and soul were both disappearing.

If his cultivation was not lacking, on the basis of his saintly cultivation, he couldn’t die like this even if he were beheaded by the reincarnation blade. Yet now it was different. Chu Feng had destroyed him.

Wei Tiansheng was experiencing the most terrifying thing in his life. He felt his body dissolving bit by bit and vanishing in a puff of smoke. It simply made him want to cry out in terror.

Although he was callous and held no regard for others’ feelings, he was still a living creature. He was beyond terrified as he faced death’s door. He truly didn’t want to die.

Yet he realized with sorrow that even his right to shout had been stripped away.

Wei Tiansheng was finally annihilated and thoroughly dead!

Chu Feng originally wanted to extract some saint blood, but he didn’t do this because he had heard of the saints’ multitudinous methods. There was a possibility they could revive from just one drop of blood. He worried about suffering a setback.

At the same time, he also held a restrained fear of Wei Heng. He feared that as soon as there was a reaction between father and son, there would come a day when the father would use the saint blood to come knocking.

“He’s finally dead,” shouted Xi.

Then a metallic trill rang out as the mech once again changed into a spacecraft. Bursts of light rays filled the sky, and it put away the shield, azure flying spear, and Heavenly Umbrella.

In an instant, a few high-quality Nine Netherworld Stones were also taken into the spacecraft. Because this was the secluded area of the Yin Sparrow race’s saint, there were many Nine Netherworld Stones.

“Go!” shouted Chu Feng with utmost urgency. He felt pressure.

This was because they had accomplished something big here, and he reckoned this would create a stir in the universe. Wei Heng’s son was killed, two quasi-saints met tragic ends, and Yuwen Chengkong and the Nine Yin Sparrow had nearly been subdued. This was big news.

They escaped the Nine Netherworld Planet in a flash. During this process, Chu Feng’s hands quickly made carvings. More than a hundred Nine Netherworld Stones glowed with dense symbols.

Not long afterward, even if the spacecraft escaped that gloomy, cold, and black planet, they wouldn’t be stifled by the Nine Netherworld’s air anymore, nor would their yang energy overflow.

This was because the runes Chu Feng had carved into the high-level Nine Netherworld stones had become useful and concealed the magnificent, blazing qi inside the spacecraft.

Chu Feng said, “Now that the yang energy isn’t being diffused, we’re much safer. Quickly hide! Let the hull lie dormant and move forward in nothingness!”

“What’s the big deal? Are you afraid of those ghosts?” The young lady Xi was unconcerned.

Chu Feng said, “You’ve never seen cruel people. If the ultimate saint Wei Heng appears, then it will be an entirely different matter. You don’t have enough of these sacred items on hand.”

As for the Heaven Illuminators, there was no need to even think about him. They would meet certain death.

Chu Feng guessed and said, “I reckon after the Nine Yin Sparrow and Yuwen Chengkong fled, they definitely alerted Wei Heng. I’d bet he’s on his way now. Who knows, maybe he’s even about to arrive at the Nine Netherworld Planet.”

The spacecraft made several spatial-transitions and moved far away from the star field. This made the young lady Xi and Chu Feng both let out long sighs. They didn’t feel matters to be so urgent anymore.

That was until Chu Feng saw Uncle Ming in the cold storage room. His eyes were a bit irritated. He had been the ancient saint of a magnificent generation, yet in the end, he met with such a tragic fate.

“Uncle Ming!”

Chu Feng’s eyes were reddened, and he almost shed a few tears. He was in a completely different state compared to when he was fighting Wei Tiansheng just now.

All that was left of Uncle Ming was a head with bloodied white hair and muddied, dim old eyes. He was in his late days; the flames of life could burn out at any time.

Luckily, though, he was a saint. Even if he was dying, lower-level evolvers couldn’t compare with him, therefore, he could withstand the yang energy on the ship.

“I have the medicine of the Yang Realm here, but it certainly cannot be used on you.” The young lady Xi shook her head.

She knew that if she were to really feed Uncle Ming that kind of great medicine, it would certainly set the pitiful old man’s head on fire. Not only would he not be saved, but his death would also be hastened.

“Uncle Ming, it’s okay. I will save you!” said Chu Feng.

“You’re a good kid. I’m glad to be able to see you make it this far,” said Uncle Ming. There was a look of gratefulness in his turbid old eyes, but also disappointment and hope.

He saw Chu Feng was full of youthful energy. He was so young, but to his surprise, he could slaughter a saint. It didn’t matter whether or not he relied on external objects; in the end, he could still claim universe-shaking military success.

Uncle Ming realized the time that had belonged to his generation was already over. Perhaps he would disappear from this realm just like his old friends.

“Friends, I’m going to reunite with you. We’ll gather underground and go on an expedition once more. Our extraordinary years, our all-powerful generation... I’m with you all!”

Chu Feng instantly felt matters were not too encouraging after hearing these words. He anxiously yelled, “Uncle Ming, pull yourself together! Yaoyao said she wants you to see her wipe out the Xilin race, cleave through the Deity planet with one hand, and suppress those Heaven Illuminator-level enemies!”

He thought that perhaps Yaoyao was the thing this old man might least be able to give up. He no longer had any other mementos. He had to make him cheer up.

“I believe Yaoyao can do it. You’re not too bad, either!” A luster rose up in Uncle Ming’s eyes. He had more vigor now than before.

Chu Feng said, “That’s a given. Uncle Ming, you have to personally see it all. You fought from antiquity until now. How could you shirk away? You have to live on. I still want you to guide me in my cultivation! You can instruct Yaoyao and train Yaoyao’s fiance, the third in the heavens. You can also teach the ninth in the heavens, Wei Heng. You can definitely still teach me, the one who is so lonely without a rival in the world. Wait for me to emerge, and I’ll help you eliminate Wei Heng!”

Chu Feng’s words made Uncle Ming’s eyes glitter. If he could truly instruct an exceptional talent, if he could one day help Yaoyao and put Wei Heng and the others in balance, then he could die without regrets.

And if Chu Feng could kill Wei Heng and the others, then that would also be his own splendor. It would be a resplendent achievement that would let him die with a smile.

“Alright, I’ll survive!” said Uncle Ming.

After evoking his will to live, Chu Feng hastily grabbed Wei Tiansheng’s spatial bracelet. This was his only spoils.

The items brought by the other two quasi-saints had been completely destroyed by the Heavenly Umbrella. Not a thing was left.

Luckily, Chu Feng had personally dealt with Wei Tiansheng; otherwise, this spatial magic item wouldn’t be left over, either.

“Uncle Ming, look at this spatial magical item that I can’t open with my cultivation. Look at what’s inside. I reckon there’s a lot of medicine. Hurry and temper it a bit so you can reinstate your vigor. Saints can be reborn with just a drop of blood, to say nothing of the whole wise head you have left.

...

After an hour, the airship was full of laughter, and the atmosphere became more lighthearted.

Then Uncle Ming became quiet. He began to seclude himself for healing and cultivation.

“Where shall we go next?” asked the young lady Xi.

Chu Feng replied, “Of course we’re going to the ancestral planet of the Yin Sparrow race. They’re all in the same galaxy. Wouldn’t it be disrespectful if we were to pass by this race’s door without paying a visit?”

“The heart of the struggle...” The young lady Xi murmured first and then said, “But it is indeed an opportunity. The Nine Yin Sparrow and the others retreated. I’m certain they can’t swallow it and want to go move and save their forces. Maybe that ancestral planet is empty, and the saint turned out in full strength. That’s... that’s our chance!”

Chu Feng nodded and said, “Not bad. I bet the galaxy is in a riot. The Yin Sparrow and Xilin races’ experts might turn up. Your spacecraft can disappear into nothingness, so maybe it can take advantage of the Yin Sparrow ancestral planet’s negligent defenses. Destroy their nests in from the void!”

In reality, such an opportunity existed.

In the outside world, many powerful races all felt an anomaly and received reports of an incident with the Yin Sparrow race. There was a large-scale army deployment that covered the Nine Netherworld region.

“Eh? What’s up with the Yin Sparrow race? Could someone really be trying to break through and become a saint? This race really is something. They’re gonna have another saint!”

Soon, some of the secrets were learned and spread to the outside world.

“Perhaps the Nine Yin Sparrow wants to become a saint. According to the rumors, he bought a saint’s source head from Wei Heng. He’s going to use this to make a breakthrough!”

The outside world was in an uproar. Everyone thought the Nine Yin Sparrow was going to become a saint and that the Yin Sparrow race’s large-scale movement was their way of protecting him.

When the Nine Yin Sparrow heard the news, his face contorted and he almost spat out blood. He really didn’t know how the outside world would react when the truth came out soon.

“Our target is the Yin Sparrow race’s ancestral planet. Onward!”

The extremely daring Chu Feng and young lady Xi piloted toward the Yin Sparrow race’s ancestral planet.

“It doesn’t matter. Ever since this race’s ancestors entered the forbidden depths of the Nine Netherworld in their later years, none would ever come out alive again, and this race doesn’t have a Heaven Illuminator expert!”
