One Leaf Covers the Sky

Half an incense stick of time passed.

The fierce beasts gathered around Liu Feng, watching the heavenly tribulation in the distance.

Every time a bolt of heavenly lightning descended, their hearts would leap in their chests!

It was too terrifying!

If Liu Feng were not so important, they would have long since fled in a panic.

"When will Liu Feng be finished?"

Demon Spirit was so frightened that he could no longer maintain his human form, reverting into a ghost fire.

Di Tian frowned and glanced at him, just about to speak.

Liu Feng's aura shifted, and a lingering rhythm of laws manifested upon his body.

The Laws of Heaven and Earth!

Feeling the might of heaven and earth at such close range allowed him to master a new law, following his mastery of the Laws of Nature!

And the Laws of Heaven and Earth had also granted him a "divine skill."

"Di Tian, I want to go over there..."

Liu Feng pointed toward the direction of the heavenly tribulation and said softly.

"!!!"

The fierce beasts nearly had their eyeballs pop out of their sockets upon hearing this.

Are you tired of living?!

Di Tian frowned slightly. "Reason?"

Liu Feng raised one hand, and a pale green light appeared above it.

It enveloped him and the fierce beasts nearby.

In an instant, the beasts could no longer sense the aura of the heavenly tribulation in the distance at all.

Naturally, the fear that their lives were in danger also faded rapidly.

"!!!"

The fierce beasts fell into silence once more.

Their eyes were truly bulging, their faces twitching—they wanted to laugh, but were afraid of being disappointed!

Even Di Tian could not remain calm; he opened his mouth several times before finally asking.

"You... can isolate aura?"

Liu Feng smiled lightly. "It's more than that! The skill I realized is called One Leaf Covers the Sky! It is a method to deceive the heavens! It is as if one is isolated from the world."

"Although we are still here, to the heavenly tribulation, we have already vanished."

"Of course, it can also be used to mask only a portion of one's aura, lowering the difficulty of the tribulation."

Liu Feng only revealed a portion of the effects of One Leaf Covers the Sky.

This was the benefit for the fierce beasts, but in battle, it naturally had other uses.

"..."

Di Tian and the other fierce beasts all fell silent.

They looked at each other, their smiles becoming increasingly uncontrollable, yet none of them made a sound.

An atmosphere of jubilation began to build.

"Hahaha...!!!"

Lord Bear was the first to burst into uncontrollable laughter.

The other fierce beasts followed suit, laughing until tears streamed down their faces!

Liu Feng's divine skill was practically a divine gift for them!

What the fierce beasts feared most was the heavenly tribulation, and with Liu Feng's One Leaf Covers the Sky, the power of the tribulation could be greatly reduced!

Zi Ji rushed to Liu Feng's side in an instant, scooped him up, and kissed him several times with force.

"Little Liu Feng, you are simply amazing!"

"Amazing! Big sister loves you to death!"

Zi Ji expressed her feelings fervently.

Three-Eyed Golden Lion stood stunned for a moment before reacting; she pushed Zi Ji away with her fleshy paw and bared her teeth at her with a low growl.

A rare smile appeared on Di Tian's face; the significance of One Leaf Covers the Sky to the fierce beasts was too great!

His plan to cultivate Liu Feng was truly worth it!

Once Liu Feng became a god, perhaps he would truly bring hope to the soul beasts!

"Liu Feng, you have done well."

Di Tian offered his praise.

Liu Feng smiled, "Shall we set off now? It's the perfect time to test the effects."

Di Tian hesitated, glancing toward the heavenly tribulation in the distance.

Zi Ji suppressed the pouncing Three-Eyed Golden Lion with one hand and chuckled, saying:

"Liu Feng, why bother with that Snow Empress? Her heavenly tribulation is too terrifying; what will you do if you get struck while approaching?"

"If she dies, she dies. We can just use the heavenly tribulation of another Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast for the experiment."

Zi Ji said dismissively.

Liu Feng shook his head; he had already realized that Sea God Tang San was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Since that was the case, he certainly wouldn't let the other party have their way.

It wasn't just the Snow Empress; he would also interfere with the Ice Empress, who was slated to sacrifice herself according to the plan.

Since Sea God Tang San could not directly intervene in the lower realm, he would not sit idly by!

The excuse was easy enough to find: he and the Snow Empress were on good terms!

Sea God Tang San didn't know his true situation, and aside from fuming in frustration, he dared not do anything in the lower realm.

Di Tian said in a deep voice, "All of you, move back. I will take Liu Feng there myself."

The other fierce beasts said no more, though they watched Liu Feng with worry, they did not leave the area.

Liu Feng activated One Leaf Covers the Sky, forming a massive, leaf-shaped projection of light above their heads.

Only then did he follow Di Tian into the spatial rift.

Beneath the tribulation clouds, the Snow Empress had already withstood the fourth round of the heavenly tribulation. Her body was drenched in blood, and her pristine white clothes were stained red and black, making her look utterly wretched.

Her aura had grown weak as she gazed at the tribulation clouds, which seemed to have expanded once more.

She was certain she could not withstand the fifth round of the heavenly tribulation!

"I don't understand..."

The Snow Empress sighed. Even with the fortune of the Emperor Auspicious Beast and Liu Feng offsetting the pressure, the power of the heavenly tribulation had nearly doubled!

A faint electric current crackled in the air, causing her hair to drift upward.

A new round of the heavenly tribulation was about to descend!

"Hiss...!"

A spatial rift suddenly tore open more than a hundred meters away.

Di Tian and Liu Feng appeared within her line of sight.

"!!!"

The Snow Empress's eyes widened in shock.

Did they not fear being implicated by the heavenly tribulation by running into its range?

Especially for a fierce beast like Di Tian, this might even trigger his own tribulation.

"Do you want to die?" the Snow Empress asked bluntly.

"Leave quickly! The heavenly tribulation is coming!"

The Snow Empress urged them anxiously.

The next instant, Liu Feng released a green leaf toward her, which hovered above her head.

In the moment she was stunned, the entire world was illuminated once again by the tribulation lightning!

"Boom...!"

Countless bolts of lightning connected heaven and earth, turning the space into a forest of thorns.

She looked toward Di Tian with concern, worried that they would be dragged into her plight.

But...

Though the lightning was dense, not a single bolt could touch Di Tian's side!

"What is going on?"

The Snow Empress was stunned again.

Could it be that the heavenly tribulation was only targeting her?!

In an instant, a thick bolt of heavenly lightning slammed into her body.

She plummeted heavily, closing her eyes and waiting for death to arrive.

Yet, the darkness she imagined did not come.

It was only... painful!

The lightning strike was agonizing, but it was far from enough to kill her!

Snow Empress opened her eyes, unleashing her ultimate technique, Emperor Cold Heaven, to withstand the heavenly tribulation while glancing toward Di Tian with a look of confusion.

Yet, she saw Liu Feng smiling at her...

Smiling?

She suddenly realized that the power of this new round of heavenly tribulation seemed far weaker than she had anticipated!

It was not even as strong as the first round!

"!!!"

Snow Empress immediately broke into a smile as well.

With the power of the tribulation greatly diminished, it seemed she would not have to die!

"Rumble...!"

As if insulted by being underestimated, the heavenly tribulation roared in fury.

It immediately unleashed a heavenly lightning strike even more terrifying than the previous one!

Over a dozen thick pillars of lightning crashed down simultaneously.

Yet, they were still easily blocked by Snow Empress!

In the God Realm, Sea God Tang San widened his eyes at the sight.

"Why?! I provided divine power to the heavenly tribulation to catalyze its might, so why was I rejected?!"

Sea God Tang San found it hard to believe; although he did not govern the heavenly tribulation, he was still capable of interfering with it.

He could have easily raised the power of Snow Empress's tribulation to its theoretical limit.

But now, the power of the tribulation had instead dropped to that of an ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

"What is going on?" Sea God Tang San prepared to investigate the situation.

A cold voice rang out behind him.

"Sea God, are you interfering with the lower realm?"

"!!!"

Sea God Tang San jumped in fright and hurriedly turned around.

He saw God of Destruction staring at him coldly, a sinister grin playing on his lips.

"..."

Sea God Tang San swallowed hard and said sheepishly, "Listen to my explanation, Destruction..."
