However, by the time these top-grade experts arrived, they revealed odd expressions because the situation on the island wasn't what they thought it would be.
The old grandmaster, the Golden-Winged Roc King, and the Crane King were facing off against the Peacock King and the Nine-lives cat. The atmosphere was very tense, but the star of the show was calmly doing business!
It could even be said that the main character was here was extremely leisurely as he introduced his weapon nurturing domain to the other evolved beings. He wasn't the least nervous or worried that a king level battle would erupt.
"What situation is this?"
The top-grade king level experts who had arrived from the other island glanced at each other, baffled. They looked at the crippled Chu Feng and wondered how he was still able to maintain such an attitude.
He seemed like a veteran salesperson tricking the people nearby into staring blankly at the dagger in his hand.
Chu Feng introduced the weapon nurturing art and explained all of its wonders. It was able to turn the decayed into something magical, allowing various weapons to increase in rank and could even help the corporations nurture flying knives, etc.
"Why do I feel that he's transformed into a conman now? What is this weapon nurturing art that he's selling? What's so good about it?" The kings who had just arrived didn't understand the situation and were quite skeptical.
However, they saw that the people in the vicinity were listening attentively and the dagger in Chu Feng's hand was glowing slightly. Free energy was being drawn into the weapon as if it was undergoing a refinement, and soon, it began to flicker with a spiritual glow.
"Heh heh, Demon King Chu, it seems you've been served your just deserts. You've actually become a peddler. Are you trying to sell this dagger? Where's the unrivaled spirit from three months ago?" a marine race expert who had just arrived spoke.
This was a seamonkey covered from head to toe in densely packed and lustrous bronze scales. Even his face was in the same state. He appeared somewhat frightening.
Chu Feng replied calmly, "Monkey, I let you off on Mount Longhu back then. We can let it be if you don't know gratitude, but now you're coming here to taunt me. Your character is truly lacking."
The seamonkey was angered at these words and immediately bared its fangs, releasing a cold killing intent.
However, the other experts revealed odd expressions because they realized some things and glanced at a nearby location.
The Hollow Jade Temple master's expression was calm and showed not a single fluctuation.
Many people understood that Chu Feng's words had certain implications. He wasn't just provoking the violent seamonkey, but also mocking people like the Hollow Jade Temple Master.
Back then, Chu Feng had crossed thousands of miles to arrive at Mount Longhu and fought fierce battles against the marine race experts to save the batch of top-grade experts from the continent. This was something that shook the whole world.
It could be said that he was the benefactor of all these people, but some people treated him unfairly later on. Especially since they didn't invite him to the other island. Everyone would feel utterly disappointed if they heard this news.
All of them were evolved beings, and as such, their senses were naturally very sharp. Some people turned to glance towards the Hollow Jade Temple Master's group.
However, this didn't anger the Hollow Jade Temple Master or make him lose his temper.
"Marine race friends, I request you to keep your promises after arriving at the continent. Don't let your killing instincts flare up rashly. We have to be sincere about cooperation and work together to face the imminent threat of outer-realm beings."
The Hollow Jade Temple Master spoke thus. Unexpectedly, he had said something like that in a calm and neutral manner with which no one could find any fault.
Following which, he turned towards Chu Feng as if he hadn't heard the sarcastic remark just now and sighed. "Chu Feng, the Hollow Jade Temple has found some treatment methods for you. I'll tell you in a while."
Everyone was puzzled and revealed doubtful expressions.
"Heh, thanks to the Temple Master," said Chu Feng curtly. He didn't say anything else.
The seamonkey was inherently violent and possessed intense killing intent. He stared fixedly at Chu Feng with ill-will and stepped forth to make a move. He had no intention to listen to the Hollow Jade Temple Master.
"Don't be so impatient."
A certain lady spoke. She was tall and possessed great figure. Her hair was glowing with a blue radiance and a pair of small dragon horns were poking out from between them.
She was someone at the same level as the national goddess, a rare beauty. She possessed a type of classical charm but was wearing modern clothing.
Ordinary evolved beings might not know her identity, but all the top-grade experts here were aware of the Dragoness from the eastern sea!
All the marine race members here, from the seamonkey to the marine humans, had to obey and listen to her commands.
The bronze-scaled seamonkey calmed down after hearing her words and no longer dared to make a move.
"Little Monkey, you're sure obedient."
What surprised everyone was that Chu Feng paid no need to what just happened. He was completely fearless as he gazed at the vicious sea monkey and mocked it.
"Brat, you must be tired of living!?" The seamonkey was enraged.
At present, he wouldn't even listen to the Dragoness' words anymore. He rushed over with a swoosh and wanted to tear Chu Feng apart or slap him into a pile of flesh.
Thump!
A mountain tortoise appeared. He didn't attack and simply blocked the monkey's claws which struck its gold-patterned shell. The tortoise surging with energy stood in the monkey's way.
The Kongtong sect master appeared and blocked the monkey's violent attack without moving a single inch.
This was one of the top-ten experts of the East who had lived for a couple thousand years. He was only slightly unfortunate. If only he had found a mutant fruit during the earlier hidden upheavals, someone of his talents would've become a hegemon by now.
This was an old spiritual turtle who had lived through the vicissitudes.
At this time, everyone drew in a cold breath. Chu Feng had simply sown too much good karma. Those standing up for him possessed great origins and could help him deal with problems.
"Senior, don't block him. Let him come. I want to test how strong my domain is," said Chu Feng before gesturing to the charging sea monkey, "here monkey, come."
The people were all dumbfounded. Even the old mountain tortoise opened his mouth but ultimately gave way without saying anything.
"Aiyaya, this truly angers your monkey ancestor!"
The seamonkey charged over with a boom. Its scales were glowing as it swiped out with a huge claw towards Chu Feng. The scene was so terrifying that even the air was somewhat distorted.
Weng!
But the scene which ensued shocked everyone. With a sudden eruption of energy, the ground began to glow and form mysterious patterns that were seemingly cast from molten iron.
With a clang, Chu Feng inserted the dagger back into the ground. A large amount of energy could be seen extending forward and gathering into the dagger, making it almost transparent.
The seamonkey's energy was completely drawn in and absorbed by the domain. Following which, it was sent towards the dagger in the middle of the nurturing array.
This was extremely bizarre and shocking. Many people were visibly moved.
"Everyone, come and see. The spiritual halo around this dagger is now increasing and its quality is rising," Chu Feng introduced.
He took some risk and deployed two types of domains here. One was the weapon nurturing domain which he was most familiar with.
The other one was deciphered from a certain major offensive domain. It included the soul stealing symbol and another symbol that could absorb and transfer energy, etc.
The seamonkey was spinning in place but didn't go so far as to collapse. However, he felt pain in his brain as he was affected by the soul stealing symbol.
"Ah…" It cried loudly and was just about to charge once again.
"Little monkey, stop fooling around. Stand to one side while I'm demonstrating the weapon nurturing technique," said Chu Feng.
The Kongtong sect master was just about to make another move when the Dragoness spoke. Her expression was solemn—she rebuked the sea monkey and made him withdraw before advancing closer, staring fixedly at the dagger within the domain.
In truth, all the top-grade king level entities here had sensed that this domain possessed astonishing value.
That was because, with their frighteningly sharp divine senses, they were able to sense that the dagger was being nurtured by an ineffable energy. Its quality was being improved and its spirituality growing.
Some changes had already taken place in such a short time. What changes would occur if the weapon was nurtured for a month or even several years? The results were bound to be shocking.
"I trust that you can nurture weapons. I have a weapon here and I wonder if you can nurture it," the Dragoness spoke and immediately initiated a deal with Chu Feng.
"No problem. I can have ordinary blades become flying knives. It would be somewhat easier if the weapons already possess spirituality." Chu Feng smiled. He had to first blow his trumpet whether or not he could actually do it later on.
Unexpectedly, the Dragoness seriously nodded and said, "True. There certainly are records of such a method by which one could use domains to transform ordinary metal into divine weapons!"
At this time, many people were shaken. They suddenly realized that Chu Feng's weapon murturing art was even more profound than they had imagined!
Everyone became restless. Even the Peacock King and the Nine-lives Cat were astonished—could this so-called domain be so heaven-defying?
Some major powers were quite anxious. They now possessed top-grade kings and had even occupied famed mountains. What they lacked most was spiritual weapons like flying knives, etc.
Now, Chu Feng had appeared and immediately torn apart the window paper, allowing them to see where the light was.
At this time, even Chu Feng's rivals and corporate powers were excited. They felt their blood pumping rapidly because this was a rare opportunity.
"Brother Chu is indeed a genius of our generation. According to some ancient records, the dao of domains are the most difficult to master. They are so complex and abstruse that ordinary people would barely be able to scratch the surface after experimenting for a decade."
"Haha, it's truly unexpected. Brother Chu encountered a tribulation on the path to evolution but you've unexpectedly stepped on an even brighter path."
At this point, many kings began to show a 180-degree turn in their attitudes. They were extremely passionate and full of praise.
In the distance, Jiang Luoshen was suspicious. Was it true? Just a while ago when Chu Feng appeared here, he was the subject of disdain because he had been crippled and was no longer a peerless expert. But everything changed again within such a short time!?
This astonished Jiang Luoshen. Chu Feng passed a period of silence after he was crippled, but now he had stepped on another special path and was, once again, the subject of attention.
A group of kings came forth to build relationships with him. Their aims were clear—they wanted to have Chu Feng help them nurture a divine weapon!
In the distance, the Hollow Jade Temple Master's face twitched slightly. This was too unexpected. Even he hadn't expected Chu Feng would be able to research domains.
The seamonkey was displeased because he knew Chu Feng did everything intentionally. The latter had used him to demonstrate the domain's power and caused such a commotion.
At this time, Kong Sheng and party who had been tossed to one corner broke into a fit of rage. As sacrifices to demonstrate the domain's power, they were even more miserable than the seamonkey. They were absolutely infuriated and almost blacked out from the anger.
At this time, Chu Feng finally spoke once again. He pointed the spear at the Nine-lives Cat and used this opportunity to offer a bounty.
"Everyone, I'm a person who repays favor with favor and enmity with enmity. Whoever cuts off the cat's tail for me, I'll nurture his weapon to the end."
"You're courting death!" The Nine-lives Cat glared at Chu Feng with frosty eyes and was prepared to pounce in for the kill at any moment.
Many kings were stunned. They were astonished because they felt this kind of bounty was meaningless. Would anyone be willing to take action because of this?
But at the next moment, everyone understood that there were experts willing to cooperate with Chu Feng.
The Dragoness immediately made a move. Despite being a lady, she was extremely decisive because she deeply understood how extraordinary those who studied domains were. If she could gain the friendship of such a person, there might not be a problem even if she wanted to open the true dragon lair of the eastern sea.
This was simply too important for the dragon race!
Boom!
The Dragoness' shocking strength exceeded all expectations—her sudden move struck the Ninelives Cat flying while coughing up blood.
Damn! Some kings couldn't help but curse. Chu Feng's words had hardly left his lips when someone had already responded? They realized that they had underestimated the status of a domain researcher. These people had great uses!
Following which, the corporations began to move. They secretly discussed whether or not they should join the attack because they also had extreme experts with six severed shackles among them and weren't weaker than the others.
Chi!
Golden light surged as the Roc King attacked. Even if his speed couldn't be considered first in the world, he should still rank within the top three. The legendary roc was able to travel tens of thousands of kilometers in an instant.
Meow!
The Cat King cried out as the Roc King's attack injured it once again.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The very next moment, the old monster of Mount Changbai and the sect master of Mount Kongtong had also moved. They charged forward while the Wudang grandmaster stayed beside Chu Feng to guard him.
Everyone was petrified and shaken after seeing the several major powers making their move and pursuing the Cat King.
The corporations that had studied the ancient evolved beings and the top-grade powers all understood the value and use of a domain researcher. Many of them began to move.
What situation was this? Gao Yuan from the Baji school was also here. He had no idea what kind of effect a domain researcher would have in the future and was sent into a daze.
That was because he couldn't understand the situation. Chu Feng was only a crippled man who knew a certain technique. Was all of this worth it?
"Didn't you say you wanted to compete against me at the awakened realm?" Chu Feng asked him.
"Yes, what of it!?" Gao Yuan agreed immediately. But he soon understood he had invited disaster.
Chu Feng hadn't even said anything when several people rushed over to attack Gao Yuan. They were ordered to do so by the Dragoness. She couldn't calm down and was fiercely determined to rope Chu Feng in. She wanted to invite him to help her search for the true dragon lair!
People followed along blindly—after seeing the Dragoness make her move and how she was willing to invest so much, the other continental experts started to attack.
Thump! Thump…
Gao Yuan was extremely powerful but he was surrounded by too many people. He was soon struck flying with blood seeping out of the corner of his mouth. He felt… too goddamn wronged!
Chu Feng opened his mouth and wanted to tell everyone that he didn't want them to chase down and kill Gao Yuan. They had all misunderstood.
"Meow!"
In the distance, the Nine-lives Cat had flown into a rage. His eyes were almost spewing out flames, but at the same time, he was also apprehensive because a whole group of people were charging at him with the Dragoness and the Golden Roc King at the van.
He was once again badly injured within the blink of an eye and almost died on the spot.
"Hey, everyone take it easy! I only want the cat's tail. Don't kill him!" Chu Feng shouted. That was because he felt anger in his heart and wanted to deal with the cat himself later on. Right now, he just wanted to vent his anger.
"Meow, meow, meow…" The Nine-lives Cat was furious. What was he being treated as?
But he couldn't help but feel surprised because Chu Feng's words were extremely effective.
Within moments, many segments had been cut off from his tail as experts fought to make their move. This was simply… too terrifying!
He wanted to escape but the Golden Roc King was simply too swift. He wasn't much slower than Chu Feng at his peak.
Add that to the frightening Dragoness, the cat was miserable to the extreme.
The group of people robbed the cat king of his tail and left him enraged to the point of insanity.
In the distance, the Peacock King was drenched in cold sweat.
As for Kong Sheng's group, they immediately pretended to be unconscious and collapsed to the ground.
