1142 Shocking Everyone! Wherever Lightning Belongs! This Is Human Nature!
Demon Son Er Qi smiled faintly and did not say anything.
Chu Feng became even more furious.
"You're playing tricks again. I hate pretentious brats like you the most. If you have a trump card, quickly take it out. Let's compete. If we win, we'll live. If we lose, we'll die. It's such a simple matter. Why do you guys always like to make it so complicated?!"
Demon Son Er Qi seemed to have completely calmed down.
Now that it was done, no matter how regretful he was, it was useless. Demon Son Er Qi calmed down.
As expected of a peerless genius that only appeared once in countless years in the Abyss. Just his temperament alone was worthy of being called a prodigy.
Of course, Chu Feng found it even more unbearable.
Everyone knew each other. Who was he pretending for?!
Demon Son Er Qi seemed to be very enthusiastic about provoking Chu Feng. He was not anxious and merely smiled faintly.
"Chu Feng, I've already said that there are many things that you can't understand. It's just that I don't want to expose myself too early…"
But the next moment, before Demon Son Er Qi could finish speaking, Chu Feng drew his saber and stood up with an impatient expression.
"If you don't want to say it, don't say it. Take it to the grave! Don't pretend in front of me. No one wants to know!"
Boom!
A saber beam suddenly tore through the sky.
Chu Feng's combat power instantly erupted.
The first slash of the Nine Sabers slashed at Demon Son Er Qi without holding back.
"I think all you have left is your stubbornness. In that case, use your mouth to block my saber that's comparable to a peak early-stage Divine Lord!"
Chu Feng sneered.
He spouted nonsense as if he had a way to turn the situation around.
Then I want to see how a threshold Divine Lord like you can withstand my strike!
If you can't block it, die!
On the other side, Demon Son Er Qi was facing Chu Feng's ferocious slash.
The smile on his face gradually became solemn.
Despite talking, when it came to battle, one still had to rely on strength.
He knew very well how monstrous Chu Feng was.
Ordinary early-stage peak Divine Lords might not be his match!
If he wanted to survive this slash, he had to take out some trump cards…
For example…
He took a deep breath.
Demon Son Er Qi flipped his wrist, and an ancient and unique golden key suddenly appeared in his hand.
On the golden key, there seemed to be lightning rumbling and black light flickering.
The Demon Son Er Qi who was holding the golden key, seemed to have gained confidence. He raised his head confidently and looked indifferently at Chu Feng's all-out slash.
A faint voice sounded in the world.
"As the new guardian of the [Lightning] Secret Key of Laws, I can control the power of lightning in the Starting Ground at will. Although my strength is inferior to yours, I have the support of the [Lightning]. What can you do to me?!"
As he spoke, Demon Son Er Qi's body suddenly rose.
He soared into the sky.
The next moment, the golden key in his hand suddenly erupted with an extremely resplendent light that illuminated the entire world.
There was a thunderclap!
In an instant, the originally bright sky was instantly enveloped by dark clouds. Lightning flashed, and lightning bolts as thick as buckets covered the entire sky!
Right on the heels of that.
Under the control of Demon Son Er Qi, the endless power of lightning behind him slowly condensed into the appearance of a towering python. It hissed at the sky, as if it wanted to devour the sky!
The Great Evolution Lightning Python phantom!
It was originally the Guardian Astral Beast of the [Lightning] Secret Key of Laws!
At this moment, it was as if it had been awakened again.
It floated quietly behind Demon Son Er Qi.
Looking at the scene before him, everyone was shocked.
What kind of move was this?
He could actually directly control the power of laws in the Starting Ground?!
They were not weaklings, so they could naturally tell.
The behemoth summoned by Demon Son Er Qi was actually not the true Great Evolution Lightning Python, but the gathering of endless lightning power.
This was even more terrifying.
This meant that Demon Son Er Qi had used some unknown method to directly control a portion of the power of laws in the Starting Ground?!
Not far away, Xun Feng exclaimed.
"It's the [Lightning] Secret Key of Laws!"
"The legendary Guardian Mission in the Starting Ground?!"
"I didn't expect Demon Son Er Qi to have already pocketed the [Lightning] without anyone noticing!"
At this moment, everyone had different expressions.
Even the expressions of the many elders of the Demon Spirit Race changed.
They did not even know that Demon Son Er Qi actually had such a treasure!
One had to know that the reason why the core area was so lively these few days was because the legendary Guardian Mission had been activated?!
All the forces gathered here were here for this!
However, after hunting for a few days, they found nothing.
Not knowing the identity of the Guardian Astral Beasts was the greatest obstacle!
They did not even have a direction to work towards!
It was also because of this that many elders of the Demon Spirit Race were willing to delay for so long with the Demon Hunting Team.
At the very least, the treasures on the Demon Hunting Team could be seen and touched!
Once they could kill the Demon Hunting Team, they would immediately gain something!
But no one expected this.
Beside him, His Highness from the Abyss, who had been keeping a low profile all this time, had actually successfully hunted a Guardian Astral Beast!
Although the lowest requirement for the Guardian Mission required four Secret Keys of Laws, wasn't everything always difficult at the beginning…
If he could possess this Secret Key of Laws… Who could say what would happen after that?
Perhaps he would be extremely lucky and obtain another three Secret Keys of Laws in a row?
Furthermore, even if he could not gather all four Secret Keys, each Secret Key of Law could control the power of laws in the Starting Ground!
Just like Demon Son Er Qi!
He had forcefully summoned a lightning beast comparable to a peak early-stage Divine Lord!
This was because there were no clouds today and the [Lightning] was weak. Therefore, the [Lightning] Guardian Astral Beast condensed was much weaker!
At this moment, Greed rose in everyone's minds.
Only Chu Feng was stunned on the spot.
There was also greed.
But even more… was shock!
He was not shocked that Demon Son Er Qi had the [Lightning] Secret Key of Laws.
From the beginning, he knew that the [Lightning] Guardian Astral Beast had been hunted down. He just did not know who that person was.
Now it was clear.
It was actually Demon Son Er Qi.
It was normal.
According to the information given to him by the sloppy old man, the [Lightning] Guardian Astral Beast was only a mid-level Lord.
With the strength of Demon Son Er Qi and the middle-aged man in shadow, coupled with some luck and means, it was not difficult to succeed.
Chu Feng only felt that Demon Son Er Qi was indeed a top genius of this generation. His luck was really extraordinary!
He could actually encounter a true Guardian Astral Beast just by guessing!
Of course, to Chu Feng, all of this was surprising, but it was far from shocking!
What excited Chu Feng the most… was that he had never known that the Secret Key of Laws could be used like this?!
Controlling the power of laws to condense a Guardian Astral Beast?!
Why didn't anyone tell me?!
The information given by that sloppy old man did not mention these!
Of course, Chu Feng had wrongly accused the sloppy old man.
When he gave the information back then, he had already clearly said that it was just the specific identities of the seven Guardian Astral Beasts. There would be no after-sales services, brother!
At that moment, Chu Feng felt as if the blood in his entire body was boiling.
Because he already had three Secret Keys of Laws!
[Earth], [Wind], and [Mountain]
Did this mean that he could control the power of these three aspects in the Starting Ground?!
The most terrifying thing was that the quality of the Secret Keys of Laws in Chu Feng's hand was extremely high!
Take the [Earth] for example. In the entire Starting Ground, other than the sky, the land was the most vast!
The power of the earth could be said to be endless!
The [Wind] was also quite extraordinary. The breeze that flowed around all the time was the power of the wind!
The last one, [Mountain], was slightly weaker. It could be considered a lackey of the [Earth].
But no matter what, this was the power of a Divine Lord!
Actually, it could be roughly distinguished from the strength of the Guardian Astral Beasts.
The [Mountain] Guardian Astral Beast was only a low-grade lord-level Golden-Eyed Pangolin, but the [Earth] Guardian Astral Beast was a high-grade lord-level Beamon Giant Beast!
At this moment, Chu Feng was indescribably excited.
Didn't this mean that he had three more Divine Lord combatants?!
And the kind that was absolutely loyal?!
He took a deep breath.
Chu Feng suddenly forced himself to calm down.
Because he suddenly realized a problem.
At this moment, everyone was looking at Demon Son Er Qi with greedy and covetous eyes.
Even the allies of Demon Son Er Qi and the members of the Demon Spirit Race were no exception.
Chu Feng suddenly realized that this Secret Key of Laws was definitely a double-edged sword!
While it could increase their strength, it would also attract endless greed!
Not to mention, if he took out three Secret Keys of Laws at once, everyone would probably go crazy!
Including the one in Demon Son Er Qi's hand, it had directly met the bottom line of the Guardian mission!
Who could guarantee how the situation would develop at that time?!
Even the members of the Human Spirit Race who were respectful to him and Yu now might have other thoughts when the time came.
One could never judge a book by its cover. After all, they had only known each other for a short period of time!
There were not many feelings and benefits between them.
Chu Feng was not surprised at all if they did anything.
Among the people present, the only ones Chu Feng could trust completely were the people from the Demon Hunting Team!
They were all the backbone of the humans on Earth!
They were all companions who had fought side by side countless times and walked through life and death together.
They were willing to sacrifice their lives for each other.
Chu Feng did not even dare to trust Shu Wanjuan and Elder Chi Jiao 100%.
What Elder Chi Jiao valued the most was definitely the Heavenly Essence Clan behind him.
Behind Shu Wanjuan was the Heavenly Book Academy and his master, Her Excellency Bing Yao!
These people were friends, but now, they were far from being unreserved.
Therefore, Chu Feng could not guarantee what these people would choose if they knew that he had three precious treasures.
Even if they could stay true to themselves, what about the power behind them?
Once the news was leaked, was the people behind them tempted?
It was all troublesome!
Therefore, the simplest thing was to hide it!
Chu Feng had always understood one thing, which was never to test human nature!
Because human nature could not withstand testing!
He heaved a sigh of relief.
Chu Feng looked at the Demon Son Er Qi, who was showing off in front of him, and made up his mind.
He could expose a Secret Key of Laws appropriately, but he could not expose everything!
Then… the [Earth], right?
After all, too many people knew that he had tortured the Beamon Giant Beast to death.
If one was smart, one might guess if the Beamon Giant Beast was the Guardian Astral Beast.
After all, the probability of such a powerful Astral Beast becoming a Guardian Astral Beast was much higher than other Astral Beasts!
The power of the law of [Earth] was also stronger, and it would undoubtedly be more beneficial to him!
Just as Chu Feng was pondering, a miserable hissing suddenly sounded in his ears.
Chu Feng suddenly woke up.
He suddenly realized that his Demon Slayer had already collided with the Great Evolution Lightning Python phantom summoned by Demon Son Er Qi.
The thoughts of a Divine Lord expert were extremely fast!
From the moment Demon Son Er Qi took out the [Lightning] Secret Key of Laws, all of this had actually happened in an instant.
Looking at the law phantom in front of him, Chu Feng became interested. He could test how strong this guy was first!
How did the mid-grade overlord-level Great Evolution Lightning Python only reach the peak of the early-stage Divine Lord realm after being gathered by the power of laws?
Was it because the [Lightning] was weak today, or was the Demon Son Er Qi too weak?
Chu Feng was very interested in all of this!
While he was thinking, boom!
A shocking thunderclap suddenly resounded through the entire world.
Chu Feng held the Demon Slayer and suddenly stood on the forehead of the Great Evolution Lightning Python. Immediately, electricity shot out in all directions!
This guy actually did not dodge and allowed Chu Feng to hit him.
On the other hand, it was unexpected.
He suddenly swung his huge tail and whipped Chu Feng!
Rumble!
Chu Feng was sent flying far away and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn!"
Chu Feng caught his breath and cursed.
"This guy is not afraid of getting injured at all!"
"The power of the natural order is condensed. Even if it's hit, at most, some of the power of the natural order will dissipate and it will recover in an instant. Its main body's strength won't be damaged at all?!"
"Isn't this an unkillable cockroach?!"
Chu Feng was shocked.
No wonder everyone was desperately searching for the Secret Keys of Laws.
Chu Feng really did not expect this.
In the Starting Ground, the effect of this thing was actually so terrifying?! Who wouldn't be envious of an undying Divine Lord expert?!
Of course, Chu Feng estimated that perhaps it was because he was still too weak and was far from destroying the incarnation of the [Lightning] law.
But no matter what, it was enough to defy the heavens!
How could they fight?!
The enemy was not afraid of being injured at all, and its attack was at the peak of the early-stage Divine Lord realm!
That attack just now had almost caused Chu Feng to die of pain.
If his realm weren't high enough to deflect most of the force, he would probably be severely injured!
Seeing the shock in Chu Feng's eyes, Demon Son Er Qi was overjoyed and smiled faintly.
"Does Brother Chu understand my methods now?"
"I told you, you won't understand."
"Even when I surrounded Brother Chu just now, I had never planned to use such a treasure because it was too precious…"
"If not for the fact that I was forced into a dead end by Brother Chu, I would only slowly continue to search for other Secret Keys of Laws in the dark. This secret will never be exposed!"
"After all, wealth makes one guilty. The greed in others' hearts is limitless…"
As he spoke, Demon Son Er Qi glanced at the people from the Demon Spirit Race not far away with a faint smile, as if he knew very well what these people were thinking.
After a pause, he continued.
"So, Brother Chu, do you still think you can do anything to me now?"
"Although I'm not talented, with the power of this [Lightning], Brother Chu doesn't seem to be a match, right?"
