Biting the hand that feeds him
At this moment, Zhuowen was somewhat regretful. At that time, he only ate the algae to satisfy his hunger. After eating it, he didn't pay attention to the changes in his Divine Soul.
After all, he couldn't use his Divine Sense, so how could Zhuowen pay attention to his Divine Soul?
This time, if it weren't for absorbing the Disaster Crystal, Zhuowen wouldn't have noticed the sudden strengthening of his Divine Soul.
"It seems that I can only find an opportunity to explore the Ness Lake!"
At that time, there was a lot of algae at the bottom of the lake. He just casually grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his mouth, but there was still a lot left. If he could absorb all of the algae, perhaps Zhuowen's Divine Sense really could undergo a transformation.
Zhuowen calmed his mind and began to concentrate on absorbing the energy of the Disaster Crystal. Now, it was useless to regret. He had to first confirm whether absorbing the Disaster Crystal would allow him to break through the seal and use his Divine Power.
Three days later, Zhuowen looked at the half-full box of Disaster Crystal in front of him and somewhat dejectedly put down the Disaster Crystal in his hand.
In these three days, he had absorbed almost half of the Disaster Crystal. He did feel that the Divine Power in his body was growing, but whenever he wanted to circulate his Divine Power, he felt powerless.
He knew that his Divine Power was growing with the help of the Disaster Crystal, but he couldn't use it at all.
Zhuowen opened the window and looked at the sky. With his current level of Array Formations, he could barely see that the whole sky was formed by a powerful Array Formation, but this Array Formation was too powerful. He couldn't see through it, let alone break it.
"Unless I can find the core of this Array Formation, it's basically impossible to break it." Zhuowen muttered in a low voice.
"Hm?"
The moment Zhuowen lowered his head, he immediately noticed a sneaky figure looking in his direction from the entrance of an alley below.
Perhaps noticing Zhuowen's gaze, this person hurriedly shrank back into the alley and didn't dare to come out again.
Zhuowen revealed a pondering look, then the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer and he closed the window.
Soon, Zhuowen found a piece of paper in the corner of the door.
Picking it up, there was only one sentence inside: "You have already been targeted. If you want to save yourself, come to the forest in the western part of the city tonight."
Zhuowen thought for a moment, then burned the note.
Within the Marquis of Jinyun's Estate, Feng Lingmei looked at the middle-aged man before her and said, "Uncle Chen, you're saying that our people were discovered by Zhuowen?"
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Zhuowen did discover the people who were tailing us. I'm afraid that he will suspect us."
"Hmph, if you suspect me, then so be it!
Father will come out of seclusion very soon. That weapon can only display its greatest power in father's hands. At that time, we will send someone to have Zhuowen name a price. Our Jinyun Marquis' residence will take the treasured sword on his body. "Feng Lingmei coldly said.
"Elder Sister, Father has already come out of seclusion!" Feng Lingyu ran out from the hall and said happily.
Feng Lingmei said happily, "Really?
I'll go see my father now! "
… …
Within the inn, Zhuowen slowly opened his eyes. He then opened the window and indifferently looked at a pair of heavily armored soldiers walking down the street.
In front of the soldiers, Feng Lingmei and a sturdy middle-aged man were riding a tall horse side by side.
Feng Lingmei raised her head and smiled sweetly at Zhuowen, "Senior Zhuowen, can you come down for a chat?"
Zhuowen's face was expressionless. Soon after, he silently walked down the inn and came to the street.
Within the inn, everyone was already in a state of panic. Everyone silently stood within the inn, not daring to act rashly. Because the person who came today was the Marquis of the Jinyun Marquis' residence, Feng Yong.
The Jinyun Marquis' residence's power in Mo Luo City was second only to the City Lord. Moreover, the difference was not big. They were the most favorable competitors for the new City Lord. Their power in Mo Luo City was deeply rooted.
Feng Yong looked down at Zhuowen from high above. His gaze fell on the Glorious Amethyst Galaxy Sword on Zhuowen's back and said indifferently, "I heard that this brave warrior saved my two daughters. I am truly grateful."
"Men, come and bring the prepared gifts!"
Soon after, more than ten soldiers came from behind Feng Yong. They carried more than ten large chests and opened all of them.
Inside the chests were embroidered clothes, satin, precious jewels, jewelry, and many other things that Zhuowen had never seen before. Moreover, Zhuowen also found two chests of calamity crystal cores.
These two chests did not contain calamity crystal stones, but calamity crystal cores that were even more precious than calamity crystal stones.
Generally speaking, calamity crystal cores should only be taken out from the bodies of powerful strange beasts. And the strange beasts in the trial grounds were all very powerful. In this world where even divine power could not be used, everyone was just a group of mortals. How did they obtain these calamity crystal cores?
When Feng Yong took out his rewards, many people on both sides of the street revealed envious expressions.
Zhuowen only cupped his hands indifferently and said, "Then, many thanks to the Marquis."
"Haha, brave warrior is too polite!"
Feng Yong laughed and immediately pointed to the Glorious Amethyst Galaxy Sword on Zhuowen's back and said, "I heard that the long sword on the back of brave warrior can cut through iron like mud. Can you let this Marquis take a look?"
Zhuowen sneered in his heart and waved his hand, "Marquis, it's not that I don't want to let you see, but I can't easily take off this long sword. Once I take it off, it will definitely draw blood."
Feng Yong nodded and immediately grabbed a soldier beside him. With a tear of his hands, he tore the soldier in half and said with a smile, "Now that it's drawn blood, I think brave warrior can take it off, right?"
Zhuowen slightly frowned and shook his head, "When I said draw blood, it's not like what the Marquis is doing now!"
Feng Yong's eyes became cold and he said indifferently, "It seems like brave warrior is looking down on this Marquis. You don't want to give this Marquis face, right?"
Feng Lingmei quickly said with a smile, "Senior Zhuo, you might not know my father's hobby. He likes all kinds of divine weapons. What's the harm in letting him see it?
If you don't mind, you can also name a price. Our Marquis Jinyun's Mansion is one of the top forces in Moluo City. "
Zhuowen sneered even more in his heart. This Feng Lingmei was openly threatening him. He had saved Feng Lingmei's entire caravan before, but this woman was now repaying kindness with enmity.
Feng Lingmei and Feng Yong looked down at Zhuowen from high above. In their opinion, this Zhuowen would submit.
"Get lost!
What I hate the most in my life is being threatened. "Zhuowen said coldly.
At this moment, the street was terrifyingly quiet. Everyone was looking at Zhuowen strangely. Even Feng Yong and Feng Lingmei had the same expression.
"Haha, you really refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
Feng Yong was so angry that he laughed. Unfortunately, just as he laughed, the front leg of the horse he was sitting on was cut off. It knelt on the ground with a plop. Feng Yong's body stiffened and he jumped off the horse in a sorry state.
When Feng Yong came back to his senses, Zhuowen's Glorious Amethyst Galaxy Sword had already landed on his right arm.
Puchi!
Feng Yong's right arm was instantly cut off. Feng Yong screamed. When he wanted to retreat, Zhuowen changed the direction of his sword and cut off both of Feng Yong's legs.
Feng Yong didn't expect that Zhuowen would attack without even saying a word. In addition, the Glorious Amethyst Galaxy Sword was too sharp. Although he used his inner Qi to resist, it was simply like an egg hitting a rock.
The surrounding heavy-armored soldiers reacted one after another and surrounded Zhuo Wen.
Zhuowen frowned. He lifted Feng Yong and said coldly, "All of you, get lost. Otherwise, your Marquis will really die in my hands."
Feng Yong also realized that something was wrong. He quickly shouted at the soldiers to stay away.
Carrying Feng Yong, Zhuo Wen left the place in an extremely carefree manner, and the heavy armored soldiers could only watch as Zhuo Wen disappeared from their line of sight.
This was a woodshed. Feng Yong looked at the youth in front of him in fear. His whole body trembled. He didn't expect this kid to be so unbridled and powerful.
After Zhuowen stopped the bleeding from Feng Yong's wounds, he tied him up.
Although Feng Yong's legs were cut off and it was difficult for him to walk, he still tied him up just in case.
Night fell. After the third watch, Zhuowen left the woodshed and came to the forest in the west of the city.
"You really came on time. I didn't expect you to capture the Marquis of the Jinyun Marquis Mansion the moment you arrived in Moluo City."
A cold voice came from the forest in front of him. A graceful figure walked out from the depths of the forest.
The person who appeared in front of Zhuowen was a woman with black hair and eyes. She was dressed in black and had a demonic aura around her.
This woman's beauty was inferior to Yun Chuyu's, but she had a unique charm. She was like a leopard in the rainforest. She had a demonic and wild beauty.
"Witch Yu Shan?" Zhuowen said in a deep voice.
When he received the paper, Zhuowen had already guessed it.
"I didn't expect you to be able to enter the fifteenth floor. You really surprised me!
However, I'm a little puzzled. How did Wei Shuo set his eyes on you?
That guy's taste is very picky. He definitely won't make up the numbers. "Yu Shan looked at Zhuowen from head to toe and smiled.
Zhuowen smiled faintly and said, "The reason I came to the fifteenth floor was because Brother Mo Fan asked me to find you. As for whether you believe me or not, it's none of my business."
"That's right. That Wei Shuo did trick me. However, he's not much better. At this moment, that Wei Shuo should also be in this strange world!"
Yu Shan's beautiful eyes narrowed. She said in a deep voice, "You're saying that Wei Shuo also entered this place of his own accord?
That's impossible. This is not a good place. That Wei Shuo would never enter this place. "
"I was the one who pulled that guy in. Otherwise, that guy wouldn't have obediently come in by himself," Zhuowen said indifferently.
"You?"
Yu Shan looked at Zhuowen carefully again. She began to seriously examine the young man in front of her.
When she was at Dongyu Square, she remembered that this person was only a Calamity True God. Although she couldn't use her divine sense now, she could see that Zhuowen's cultivation was definitely not above the Void Sky Realm.
Although the trial grounds were special, she knew very well how strong Wei Shuo was. No matter how strong the divine sense of a cultivator below the Void Sky Realm was, it couldn't be that much stronger, let alone be a match for Wei Shuo.
