Heavenly God
With his eyes closed, Lang Yu released his energy to the fullest, feeling the unprecedentedly powerful and unparalleled energy surging within him—the energy of the gods!
A sudden gust of wind arose, swirling wildly around Lang Yu, its howling echoing throughout the entire Ice City. In an instant, sand and stones flew everywhere, creating utter chaos, as if it were the end of the world. At this moment, all the people of Ice City stood in fear, like ants seeing a tiger, so terrified that they were unable to move their bodies!
Fear!
Zhang Xingfeng, with his profound mental cultivation, suppressed his fear. "Fire Blade, just how deep is this person's skill?"
Fire Blade, who had spent a long time in the Divine Realm, replied disdainfully, "He's just a little guy who has just entered the Heavenly God Realm. Oh, right, but this little guy is an unbeatable super expert for you, Big Brother!"
Fire Blade was very arrogant, but it was understandable. Following Old Man Huo, in the Divine Realm, what did he care about a Lower Heavenly God? Moreover, the attack power of a top-level Saint Artifact was enough to deal with Lower Heavenly God.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng's heart skipped a beat. "A Celestial God? My Absolute Space only prevents all gods from attacking me. A Celestial God is far stronger than a god; he can still break through my Absolute Space!" Zhang Xingfeng still remembered some of the content in "Absolute Space." Although Absolute Space is considered a space, its defensive capabilities are limited only by its large amplitude. If the difference in strength between the two is too great, to an unimaginable degree, the opponent's powerful energy will cause the Absolute Space to collapse. In other words, if the gap is too large, Absolute Space is useless!
For example, Zhang Xingfeng is currently only a late-stage Immortal Monarch, and his Absolute Space can withstand the attacks of High-grade Divine Human, but... the gap between a God and a Celestial God is too great! Zhang Xingfeng's Absolute Space cannot withstand the attacks of a Celestial God.
"Fire Blade, what should I do? This Celestial God can break through my Absolute Space, and it seems the situation is out of my control." Zhang Xingfeng frowned.
Fire Blade replied, "Don't worry, although I can't unleash my full power in your hands, once you're in danger, the Saint Artifact will automatically protect its master and unleash Saint Artifact strongest power. At that time, hehe, I can destroy him in an instant."
Zhang Xingfeng smiled wryly, "According to my Immortal Emperor Xiao Lin, this protective function can only be activated when the master is in a life-or-death situation!"
Fire Blade chuckled sheepishly, "Heh heh, there's nothing we can do about it. Only when the master's power is almost gone, close to death, can our Saint Artifact unleash their full power. By the way, this Celestial God has just broken through; his attack power might not even be as strong as a true low-grade Celestial God!"
Lang Yu looked at the people below and was very surprised. Most of these people were from the lower realm, not from the Divine Realm!
"When did Thunder Duke use his treasure to deal with some nobody in the lower realms?" Lang Yu was a little puzzled, but he felt a sense of sympathy for those in the same boat. Now that Lang Yu had been released from prison, his power had greatly increased, and he was in a great mood, so he decided to do something for these unfortunate people in the lower realms who were just as bad as him.
Lang Yu flashed and immediately arrived in the sky above the center of the Ice City.
"Hahahaha... People of the lower realm, work hard and cultivate diligently. Once you reach the realm of a celestial god, you will be able to leave this place!" Lang Yu said kindly.
Countless people were stunned upon hearing this. A god? Many of them weren't even gods, let alone gods?
Zhang Xingfeng immediately felt anxious and asked loudly, "May I ask the heavens, is it true that there is a stone tablet here that says as long as you walk to the southern end of the Despair Star Land, you can also get out?"
Upon hearing this, Lang Yu frowned. He was unaware of this matter. Immediately, Divine Stone covered the entire Despair Star. Then, Lang Yu said, "Yes, it is possible, but to reach the southern end of Despair Star, one's physical cultivation must be very profound, equivalent to the strength of a celestial god!"
"Haha... You all have to work hard. This god has cultivated for billions of years to reach the realm of gods, and only today am I qualified to leave!" Lang Yu was obviously still very excited. Normally, he wouldn't say so much to the people in the lower realm.
With that, Lang Yu prepared to leave!
Seeing Lang Yu turn to leave, everyone in the entire Ice City, including Zhang Xingfeng, breathed a sigh of relief. The God was truly amazing.
Lang Yu suddenly turned around, his eyes gleaming as he stared straight at Zhang Xingfeng.
"You have Saint Artifact!" Lang Yu seemed very excited. Only people in the Divine Realm understood how precious Saint Artifact were.
In the Divine Realm, ordinary deities don't possess many powerful weapons; if they do, they are merely divine artifacts. The truly powerful weapons in the Divine Realm are Saint Artifact, but Saint Artifact are generally only possessed by celestial gods, and even then, a god must become a subordinate of one of the eight celestial lords to be granted a Saint Artifact.
Lang Yu become a god, and he doesn't have any Saint Artifact yet, but now he can sense the aura of Saint Artifact.
Fire Blade immediately said, "This is terrible! Dragon Spirit has never acknowledged you as its master. It's just residing in your body. Since it hasn't acknowledged you as its master, its aura can't be completely concealed. If it were a god, it might not be able to sense it, but a celestial being's Divine Sense is much stronger. It can still sense it. This is really bad!"
Artifacts or Saint Artifact that have recognized a master can completely conceal their aura within their master's body, but Saint Artifact that have not recognized a master cannot completely conceal their aura.
Artifacts or Saint Artifact that have recognized a master can only be obtained by killing the master. However, artifacts or Saint Artifact that have not recognized a master do not require killing the master at all; they can simply be... seized by force!
"Hahahaha... Heaven is really good to me! You silly boy, you have Saint Artifact but didn't recognize it as your master. Now that I've discovered it, give it to me!" Lang Yu laughed loudly, and with a flick of his hands, a powerful force passed through Zhang Xingfeng's body, directly locking onto the Dragon Spirit, attempting to seize it.
Long Ling also began to regret it. "Oh dear, Zhang boy, I should have recognized you as my master. I never thought that this guy would forcibly take you away from me. With his god-like power, he has the ability to forcibly perform the recognition function with me. Oh dear, this is terrible!"
Long Ling persisted, trying to break free from the power of the Heavenly God Lang Yu, but the power of the Heavenly God was so strong that it slowly pulled Long Ling out of Zhang Xingfeng's body.
At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng faced a choice!
The first option is to let the Lang Yu recklessly take away the dragon spirit, since the dragon spirit is not his own and he is no match for the gods. This is the safest and most secure choice.
Secondly, he fought against the gods to protect his master, the Dragon Spirit, and in the final moment of death, he used the Fire Blade to protect his master and destroy his opponent!
Zhang Xingfeng was faced with a difficult choice! The second option was far too dangerous, but he couldn't bear to part with Long Ling, with whom he had developed a deep bond.
"Hahahaha... I never expected it, I never expected that I, Lang Yu, would be so lucky. I discovered a Saint Artifact the moment I broke through to become a Celestial God. Ah, it seems to be a Saint Artifact of the same type as the Despair Prison Realm. Such a Saint Artifact is rare indeed, this is wonderful!" Celestial God Lang Yu became excited and began to increase his power, wanting to seize the treasure as soon as possible.
Lang Yu was still mocking Zhang Xingfeng: "You're such a stupid kid! You have Saint Artifact but you don't recognize it as your master. How foolish!"
"Is that so?" Zhang Xingfeng's icy voice came.
Zhang Xingfeng had made his choice. He chose the second option and was ready to fight! Who cares who it is? Even if it's a god, he'll fight! Zhang Xingfeng immediately unleashed his Fire Element Power, and the Absolute Space was successfully set up.
Instantly, the Heavenly God Lang Yu felt his power being blocked, and he could no longer sense the Dragon Spirit.
He scanned the area with his Divine Sense and discovered that there was a strange space around the other party, within a three-meter radius. His power could not enter this area at all. It was because of the sudden appearance of this strange space that his power was blocked.
The Heavenly God Lang Yu immediately flashed and landed on the ground, about ten feet away from Zhang Xingfeng.
"What is that thing? I've never seen it before." Tian Lang Yu frowned as he looked at the strange space.
Zhang Xingfeng sneered. This was the Old Man Hei's secret technique. How could Lang Yu, a nobody who had just become a god, have ever seen it?
"Even if you are a god, I don't want to make enemies with you. You should leave! You should know that you can't take what belongs to others!" Zhang Xingfeng said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the celestial being Lang Yu was instantly enraged. "You lowly creature from the lower realm, what are you? You're not even a god, yet you dare to speak to me like that! Today, if I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know the might of the celestial beings of the Divine Realm!"
Zhang Xingfeng coldly replied, "Divine Might? Hmph, once you're dead, you'll lose your divine might."
The Heavenly God Lang Yu was immediately enraged. With a wave of his right hand, a beam of light shot towards Zhang Xingfeng!
"Boom!"
In an instant, all the buildings within a hundred feet were completely destroyed, and those huge buildings were reduced to rubble. Fortunately, the other people in Ice City all kept their distance when the God of Heaven arrived in front of Zhang Xingfeng.
Only Zhang Xingfeng and Tian Shen Lang Yu remained within a hundred-zhang radius.
Zhang Xingfeng had no questions. Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng laughed, "Haha... It seems you really are a guy who just broke through to the Heavenly God realm. I guess you haven't even truly consolidated your Lower Heavenly God power yet. Haven't you even fully converted your Divine Essence Power into Divine Power? Haha..."
The Celestial God Lang Yu was startled. "Who are you? How do you know about Divine Essence Power and Divine Power?" Indeed, Lang Yu had just broken through, and his Divine Essence Power had only just begun to transform into Divine Power. Currently, only a small portion of the power in his body was Divine Power, while the majority of his power remained Divine Essence Power. After all, transformation takes time.
However, the Heavenly God Lang Yu immediately laughed, "I don't care who you are. Seeing how strong your defense is, you must have another Saint Artifact. But your skill is too low, so don't blame me for being Lang Yu."
Lang Yu's expression immediately turned solemn.
His hands moved like phantoms, forming various hand seals. Cloud-like seals began to rotate above the head of the celestial god Lang Yu. Even the icy energy within the distant iceberg continuously gathered around Lang Yu. Between Lang Yu's hands was an energy crystal ball, which grew smaller and smaller as the gathered energy became stronger.
With a heavy heart, Lang Yu also integrated a portion of the Divine Power that had just been transformed within his body into the crystal sphere!
"Firm Gold Divine Seal - Collect, Return, Break!" Lang Yu shouted, and the space suddenly fluctuated violently, turning the stones within a hundred-foot radius into stone dust.
Zhang Xingfeng was immediately startled and dodged the attack.
However... the crystal ball in Lang Yu's hand instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning, moving at an astonishing speed. Moreover, when Lang Yu locked onto Zhang Xingfeng with his Divine Sense, the light actually changed direction!
"Boom!"
The enormous energy instantly shattered Zhang Xingfeng's Absolute Space, and only then did Zhang Xingfeng remember that he still had— the Mustard Seed Space!
Zhang Xingfeng's heart immediately stirred, and in a flash, he entered the Mustard Seed Space.
The Heavenly God Lang Yu stared at the scene before him in shock. "What happened? Where is the Saint Artifact? My attack was powerful enough to obliterate him, but... but where is his Saint Artifact? How could Saint Artifact be destroyed under such an attack?"
Lang Yu just saw his attack hit Zhang Xingfeng, and then Zhang Xingfeng disappeared.
"Hoo hoo! Fire Blade, I was so stupid just now, I forgot I had Mustard Seed Space to enter. I finally remembered at the last moment. But speaking of which, this Mustard Seed Space is really good. It has the same function as the Heavenly Universe, no, it has an even more powerful function. It can store everything, and you can also hide in it to save your life!" Zhang Xingfeng said with a grin.
Long Ling sighed, "Yes, it was too dangerous just now. I was almost taken away by that guy. If he had forced me to acknowledge him as his master, I, Long Ling, would have lost my freedom!" It seems that Long Ling really values freedom! Even now, Long Ling is still unwilling to acknowledge Zhang Xingfeng as her master!
"I wonder how that guy is doing now?" Zhang Xingfeng smiled, his Divine Sense slowly drifting out.
The Heavenly God Lang Yu is no fool. If a person dies, the Saint Artifact will definitely appear. Now that the Saint Artifact is gone, it means... the person is still alive!
"Could he possess Saint Artifact like a storage bracelet?" Lang Yu had spent a long time in the Divine Realm and knew that such Saint Artifact allowed people to enter without leaving a trace. Suddenly, Lang Yu sensed Zhang Xingfeng's Divine Sense and immediately smiled.
"Kid, get out here right now! Don't think I don't know you're inside the storage bracelet's space!"
Zhang Xingfeng was taken aback. The other party's idea was not wrong. The Mustard Seed Space was similar to the storage bracelet, only much more powerful in terms of function.
"I won't come out, I just won't come out. What can a god like you do to me?" Zhang Xingfeng replied with his Divine Sense.
The celestial being Lang Yu was filled with hatred and burning with rage. He said, "Fine, fine, fine! If you don't come out, I will kill everyone in this city!" In Lang Yu's eyes, people in the lower realm were like ants, and killing them would not make a difference.
Zhang Xingfeng was stunned. Among those people were his eighteen Immortal Emperor, Lian Yang, and the girl he had a slight crush on who sold herself to save her brother.
Zhang Xingfeng was suddenly faced with another choice!
