Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Sea God: What About My Great Big Sea God High Priestess?
Ice and fire of the same origin. Lin Feng had already guessed the identity of the person before him.
With the same origin of ice and fire, mimicking the other five elements, the God of Emotion who controlled the divine power of emotion, Rong Nianbing.
He possessed seven pseudo-super-divine weapons and one super-divine weapon, the Ghost Carving Divine Saber.
Although his god-seat was designated as a first-level god, his own strength had long since reached the God-King realm. This old fox, after having given the god-seat to Douluo II’s Huo Yuhao, could still, in a future God-King war, single-handedly fight two great God-Kings.
Seeing that Lin Feng had withdrawn his offensive, Rong Nianbing let out a breath and wiped away a non-existent cold sweat. "Hoo—so strong, so strong. I am not good at slaughter. Fighting and so on, I am really not good at it."
Lin Feng looked at Rong Nianbing’s exaggerated appearance and couldn’t help but helplessly shake his head.
"Speak. What is the purpose of the God of Emotion’s visit?"
"You recognize me?" Rong Nianbing raised his eyebrows, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes. He then immediately laughed. "It seems Brother Lin Feng’s knowledge is indeed extraordinary, to actually be able to recognize me."
He asked with a gossipy face, "Was it said by the Goddess of Life?"
"Why ask so much? Hurry up and state your purpose. The weather is getting cold. My hands are about to freeze," Lin Feng squeezed his wrist.
The corner of Rong Nianbing’s mouth twitched. So it was really you who had abducted that Goddess of Life from the Divine Realm, right?
He reached out and waved his hand. The two divine sabers, Morning Dew and True Sun, were hidden in the spatial ripples around his body.
"Ahem ahem," Rong Nianbing coughed lightly, restraining the gossipy look on his face. He said with a straight face, "I have come this time, indeed not to be an enemy of you. I was entrusted by the Goddess of Life to secretly give you some assistance. Thinking about it now, you shouldn’t need my help."
"In addition, actually, I had originally planned to go down to the lower realm to see if you had any intention of inheriting my god-seat. From the looks of it now, that’s also out of the question."
"I see your potential is infinite. You control all the elements and have also self-created the ’Innate Soul Evolution Art’. I felt that you might be a suitable candidate. But, you clearly have your own path to walk. I’m afraid this god-seat of mine can’t enter your eyes."
"Sigh~ what a worry."
He stroked his chin. "Do you have any good candidates? Someone who has mastered more of the power of the elements, or whose spiritual power is abnormally formidable, or..." his eyes suddenly lit up, and he changed the subject. "Someone whose cooking skills are particularly good?" His eyes sparkled with a bit of expectation as he looked at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was stunned by Rong Nianbing’s sudden question. The corner of his mouth twitched. "God of Emotion, your standard for choosing a successor is really unique."
"Is it? Hahaha."
He was at a loss for whether to laugh or cry. Very casually, he walked to Lin Feng’s side and, with one hand, hooked Lin Feng’s shoulder, with a look of two good brothers. "Brother, there is something you don’t know. This god-seat of the God of Emotion is in fact not something that can be inherited by simply relying on strength or spiritual power. What it needs is a deep understanding and control of the emotions of all things in the world, as well as a keen insight into the subtle details of life."
"To be honest, it’s really a little difficult to find a successor. I have wandered around this plane, and there isn’t a single suitable one. To be honest, if you hadn’t chosen to create your own god-seat, you could have just taken my god-seat. There wouldn’t even be a divine trial or anything."
"Incidentally, I could have directly given you one of my old partners. You could have picked any one of the seven divine weapons. What a pity."
This fellow’s wicked heart won’t die.
Lin Feng shook the hand that was placed on his shoulder. "We seem to have just met, right? Are you always so familiar?"
Rong Nianbing smiled, as if he didn’t care about Lin Feng’s resistance. On the contrary, he patted his shoulder with even more force. "Isn’t it because I find you pleasing to the eye, Brother Lin Feng? What’s more, in this vast universe, to be able to meet a soul who is both powerful and interesting is a rare fate."
Lin Feng helplessly shook his head, pulled away the arm that was around his shoulder, and with a casual point, a pavilion appeared out of thin air. The two then stepped into it and sat around a stone table. Lin Feng poured a pot of clear tea and poured a cup for each of the two. The fragrance of the tea curled upwards, and the atmosphere also then relaxed with it.
"For the God of Emotion to have come here, it should not be just to inform me of these things. Otherwise, you would not have been peeping here just now," Lin Feng lightly sipped his tea, his gaze sharp as he looked at Rong Nianbing.
Rong Nianbing sighed lightly, his fingers gently stroking the edge of the teacup. He said slowly, "When you had counter-attacked just now, the fluctuation on your body was very strange. For a moment, I couldn’t hold it in and took a glance. Who knew your perception was so keen? In the way of space, I am not as good as you. As for the strength of our divine senses,"
Rong Nianbing thought for a moment. "Perhaps we are on par?"
He continued, "Before I had descended to the lower realm, I had gone to the Goddess of Life’s place for a trip and had left a keepsake for sound transmission, so as to be able to contact her at any time. Just now, not long ago, the Goddess of Life had informed me that you and the Asura had had a fight. Subsequently, she had then proactively applied to the two God-Kings of Goodness and Evil to hold a Divine Realm Committee."
"It was to delay the Asura and the others from descending to the lower realm, and incidentally..."
His action of stroking the teacup paused. He looked at Lin Feng with a deep gaze. "To give you time to deal with the impending Sea God. Counting the time, he is almost about to arrive. At this moment, the Sea God should already be on Sea God Island, gathering news of you."
"I am very curious, Brother Lin Feng," Rong Nianbing’s pupils sparkled, his tone carrying a trace of an inquiry. "After you have killed the Sea God, how do you plan to deal with the pursuit of responsibility from the Divine Realm? After all, the Sea God also has no small status in the Divine Realm."
"Life cannot stop those few God-Kings from descending to the lower realm."
Lin Feng sipped his tea and said indifferently, "Since you already know what has happened, then you should understand that for the two of them, the Sea God and the Asura, I will surely get rid of them."
"As for them wanting to descend to the lower realm, then let them descend. They are just God-Kings. Why should I, Lin Feng, be afraid?"
Rong Nianbing was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "You really are very confident. Those are God-Kings."
Lin Feng also squinted his eyes and laughed. "God of Emotion, you seem to have forgotten that I, Lin Feng, never do things I am not sure of. Since I dare to fight against them, I naturally have my own trump cards."
Hearing this, a trace of curiosity and surprise flashed in Rong Nianbing’s eyes. His body leaned slightly forward, waiting for Lin Feng to continue.
Lin Feng gently put down his teacup, his gaze deep as he looked into the distance. "In this world, strength is not everything. Wisdom, strategy, as well as the grasp of timing are also equally important. Although I, Lin Feng, am untalented, I also ask myself that in these aspects, I am not inferior to anyone."
"What’s more," Lin Feng changed the subject, his tone revealing a strong confidence. "The path that I, Lin Feng, walk is an unprecedented one. What I pursue is also by no means just the ultimate of strength. What I want is to surpass a God-King and to reach the realm that no one has ever reached."
Hearing this, Rong Nianbing’s heart couldn’t help but be shaken.
He was just about to say something but heard Lin Feng continue, "Qing Xuan will not make a move on me. The four great God-Kings, do you think they will deal with me together?"
"It’s hard to say," Rong Nianbing said after thinking for a moment.
"Actually, I am quite curious about your current true strength. Although you are a first-level god, the power in your body is far from being as simple as a first-level god’s. From the exchange with you just now, I can feel that you are holding back."
"Actually, you are very good at fighting, right?"
Looking at the smile on the corner of Lin Feng’s mouth, Rong Nianbing always felt a kind of an inexplicable malice. "No. How is that possible? Actually, I am just a cook. Fighting and so on is what I am worst at."
"A cook who uses seven divine weapons as kitchen knives is indeed impressive. If you have any doubts about my strength, why don’t we have a spar? Just now was not satisfying enough, was it?"
"You also just wanted to come and see my strength, didn’t you? Now is a good chance. Let me also experience the high moves of the God of Emotion."
Rong Nianbing finally stopped his action of stroking the teacup, sipped his tea, and put away his lazy look. He said with a straight face, "As expected of the person whom Life values. You have guessed my intention. If you indeed have such strength, in the future, if a God-King descends to the lower realm, I can watch the battle for you."
"To stop one or two God-Kings is also not impossible."
Lin Feng was the first to stand up. "Then come on. Let’s go to a certain place. It is a small-scale plane that I have established. With the laws of time and space, it has been continuously perfected to this day and is already a complete world. To spar there will not affect the outside world, will not be spied on by the outside world, and we can also do as we please."
Rong Nianbing also followed and stood up, a trace of interest flashing in his eyes. "Oh? The laws of time and space? Brother Lin Feng, you really are full of surprises. Then let’s go. Let me see what your small-scale plane is like. It’s a deal. If I break it, I won’t be responsible for compensation."
Lin Feng thought for a moment. "One move to decide the victory and defeat is enough. The energy release of a God-King level is indeed a little difficult to control. Even in my small-scale plane, it is difficult to completely isolate its influence. Within one move, we can both test out the other’s strength and also not cause too great a destruction."
"But..."
He looked at Rong Nianbing with contempt. "To have broken it and not even to compensate... you, this true tycoon of the Divine Realm, are so stingy?"
Rong Nianbing’s eyes widened. "I am very poor, okay? My family is large. Doesn’t eating cost money?"
The figures of the two flashed and had disappeared from their original spot, leaving only a lonely pavilion and two cups of unfinished tea. When they appeared again, they had already arrived in the small-scale plane that Lin Feng had created.
Clouds and mist lingered, and the worldly primordial qi was abundant. From a barren plain to a mountain forest, from a stream to a waterfall, everything was there.
"A very good place. Does it have a name? Brother, I tell you, I am very good at naming things."
Rong Nianbing looked at the scene before him, sighed with emotion, and took out his seven divine weapons.
A divine light sparkled. The seven peerless divine sabers slowly rotated around his body. The power of the seven elements and emotions surged with them.
The Sigh of the Goddess of Ice and Snow—Morning Dew
The Roar of the God of Fire—True Sun
The Whisper of the Wind of Freedom—Aotian
The Melody of the Earth’s Awakening—Longevity
The Ever-Changing Hexagram of Divine Ingenuity—Xuanji
The Dawn that Pierces Heaven and Earth—Holy Radiance
The Curse of the Eternal Hell—Soul Devourer
Even Lin Feng was shocked by this sudden, divine saber phenomenon, and cursed "rich dog" under his breath.
"Weiyu Grotto-Heaven."
Rong Nianbing nodded. "Not bad. Let’s fight."
"Alright."
The moment his voice fell, the two had at the same time disappeared from their original spot, leaving only one after another of an afterimage and the surging elemental fluctuation in the air. When they had appeared again, Lin Feng and Rong Nianbing were each standing at the two ends of the Weiyu Grotto-Heaven, facing each other from afar, their eyes both sparkling with gravity and a battle intent.
Lin Feng took a deep breath. The ’Innate Soul Evolution Art’ in his body had circulated to its extreme. The power of the elements had gathered around his body, forming one after another of a brilliant halo of light, like a nine-colored divine lotus blooming.
"Yin and Yang transform and create."
The two qis of yin and yang flowed in Lin Feng’s eyes. He whispered softly. Ripples in the space. From the void walked out a figure that was identical to Lin Feng’s. In his eyes, a divine light was also flowing.
Seeing this, a trace of surprise and admiration flashed in Rong Nianbing’s eyes.
"Brother Lin Feng, you’d better be careful. Besides a cook, my profession in my original world was a magician."
The chanting was in an instant.
Rong Nianbing’s seven divine sabers had transformed into flying geese and fly to the high sky.
"The Sigh of the Goddess of Ice and Snow has brought the Staff of the Goddess of Ice and Snow."
"The Roar of the God of Fire has brought the Battle Saber of the God of Fire."
"The Whisper of the Wind of Freedom has brought the rotation of the Wind God’s Wind Bottle."
"The Melody of the Earth’s Awakening has brought the forgiveness of the Goddess of the Earth."
"The Ever-Changing Hexagram of Divine Ingenuity has brought the out-of-control gate of the God of Space."
"The Dawn that Pierces Heaven and Earth has brought the holy sword of the Goddess of Light."
"The Curse of the Eternal Hell has brought the scythe of the God of Death. Release, Seven Prohibitions, Seven Absolutes Curse!"
"Buzz—"
The incantation echoed in every inch of the space of the Weiyu Grotto-Heaven. With the fall of Rong Nianbing’s words, the phenomenon that the seven divine weapons had transformed into had abruptly materialized, and between the seven heaven-and-earth-shaking rays of light, their current figures had been revealed.
The seven divine sabers had transformed into seven bodies that were as tall as three zhang.
With Rong Nianbing as the center, they had raised the weapons in their hands outwards.
The blue-skirted woman had lightly taken a step forward. The Staff of the Goddess of Ice and Snow in her hand had lightly tapped forward. In an instant, the entire Weiyu Grotto-Heaven was as if it had been instantly invaded by a cold winter. Snowflakes had condensed in the air. A faint, frosty mist had filled the space between heaven and earth.
Immediately after, the red warrior had roared angrily. The Flame God’s Battle Saber in his hand had fiercely slashed out. A scorching flame, like an angry dragon, had cut across the long sky. With a heaven-burning and world-destroying momentum, wherever it had passed, the great earth had been scorched. The air was as if it had been ignited. The scorching hot aura had made even the space tremble for it.
The azure figure had on the contrary elegantly rotated. The treasured bottle in its hand had lightly shaken, and a ball of a super-fast-rotating, pure azure wind had whistled out. It had lightly shuttled between the flame and the frost. Wherever it had gone, the wind speed had suddenly increased, forming one after another of an azure wind tornado, which had churned the surrounding elements into a chaos.
The green figure had lightly waved a willow branch. The seven leaves were as if they had a life of their own. They had suddenly detached from the main stem and had transformed into seven green streams of light.
The silver figure had pulled open the great gate before it. A silver light had overflowed from the crack in the door, illuminating everything around. The space at this moment seemed to have become unstable, twisted, and folded. An indescribable power was brewing within.
The golden figure had on the contrary held high a holy sword. The tip of the sword had lightly tapped. Ten thousand rays of a tiny light had in an instant burst out, like the first light of dawn, holy and solemn.
Finally, the black figure had raised the scythe that represented the god of death. With its movement, the space between heaven and earth had suddenly become silent. Even the air was as if it had frozen.
The seven great phenomena had been displayed at the same time. Within the Weiyu Grotto-Heaven, the wind and clouds had changed, and the elements were surging.
He really is letting himself go. He’s directly using his ultimate move. Lin Feng’s thoughts moved slightly. If you break my grotto-heaven, I will surely make you pay for it. I’ll trick you out of a few of your divine weapons.
A monstrous elemental power had gathered around Lin Feng’s body. His figure had not moved, but the space around his body was as if it could not withstand the pressure of this power and had begun to tremble slightly.
Between the eyebrows of these two identical figures, a brilliance had abruptly bloomed. A chaotic color had overflowed from it and had quickly spread to their entire bodies. Lin Feng’s main body and his clone had at this moment quickly returned to one body. His aura had also then undergone a heaven-and-earth-shaking change.
A terrifying pressure had descended from the sky. The nine-colored divine light that had been circling around Lin Feng had abruptly converged, replaced by a deep, obscure, yet containing an endless mystery, a chaotic qi.
"Chaos has just opened, yin and yang are in pairs, all things are glorious."
On Sea God Island.
The Sea God had finally arrived at his own dojo. The first thing was to summon his spokesperson in the human world. But he was shocked and angry to find that his connection with this generation’s Great Priestess had been cut off.
He had continuously probed on Sea God Island with his divine sense, yet he had still been unable to find a trace of the Great Priestess, as if her entire person had disappeared into thin air.
"No? What about my great big Sea God High Priestess?"
