Chapter 0510: Meeting Li Yifeng
Li Yifeng was very happy to see Huang Long, but despite his joy, there was a slight strangeness in his eyes. He couldn’t figure out how Huang Long had made those two peerless warriors and over a dozen higher gods fall back. Even the silver-haired giant Zhero had a complex expression.
“Huang Long, it’s best you let us go. We’re from the Arnold Family in the Heavenly Realm!” one of the peerless warriors said, his expression calming down after initial panic.
The Heavenly Realm was the most mysterious among the six supreme divine realms, and the Arnold Family was the foremost family there. Its status in the Heavenly Realm was comparable to Lu Ning’s in the Netherworld; in some ways, it even had greater influence. Behind the Arnold Family stood the Master of Fate.
The other peerless warrior also regained his composure.
“From the Arnold Family?” Huang Long asked.
“That’s right,” the warrior replied proudly.
“Oh, and so what?” Huang Long replied indifferently. The expressions of those two warriors and the over a dozen higher gods changed instantly. Then, a glow appeared around the two warriors, and invisible divine forces began to emanate, stirring the surrounding space. The other higher gods did the same.
In the Heavenly Realm, most divine-level warriors practiced the laws of fate, and these two warriors and the higher gods were no exception. Those invisible forces were precisely the powers of fate. Unlike other types of divine powers, the powers of fate were formless and colorless—precisely why the Heavenly Realm was the most mysterious of the six supreme divine realms.
The two warriors simultaneously roared and soared into the air, attacking Huang Long from both sides. Their plan was to launch a sudden attack, severely injure Huang Long, and then escape amidst the chaos.
With their sudden attack, Bradd, Yamo, and the others reacted quickly, their faces filled with anger. Just as they were about to act, Huang Long’s voice rang out: “No need!”
Bradd, Yamo, and the others stopped.
Huang Long stood there, calmly watching the two warriors attack him.
“Ode of Fate!”
The two warriors snarled and unleashed powerful, formless, colorless forces of fate. At the same time, mysterious energies also attacked Huang Long. These mysterious energies were not soul attacks, but even Bradd and the others standing behind Huang Long felt a sense of sorrow toward fate!
These mysterious energies affected the mind!
Seeing that Huang Long still stood there motionless, leaving no time for Zhero to intervene, Li Yifeng exclaimed in alarm, “Brother Huang Long, be careful!”
Yet as soon as his voice faded, the two attackers struck. Seeing Huang Long’s reaction, they felt delighted, but their smiles vanished instantly—their attacks seemed to vanish into an endless sea. By the time they reached Huang Long, the mighty power of fate had disappeared. At that moment, they saw Huang Long raise his right hand, pinch his thumb and middle finger together, and gently flick them, causing the space ahead to crumble. Two screams rang out, followed by the two men flying backward. Dozens of higher-ranking divine warriors who had attacked afterward also flew backward. Tens of thousands of miles away, they suddenly erupted in flames and turned into ashes, drifting to the ground. Li Yifeng and Zhe Luo’s eyes widened. For a long time, they remained in a state of disbelief. With just a wave of his hand, Huang Long had eliminated two peerless warriors from the Arnold family and dozens of higher-ranking gods. Bradd and the others remained calm, as they were used to such things. Huang Long said nothing, and everyone stood quietly. “Huang, Brother Huang Long!” After a long while, Li Yifeng regained his composure, staring at Huang Long in shock before saying in a trembling voice, “Have you already reached the state of Great Perfection?!” A Great Perfection higher-ranking god?! It takes a hundred thousand years to become a Great Perfection higher-ranking god?! At the thought of this, Li Yifeng trembled inwardly. Zhe Luo also stared at Huang Long in horror. As an envoy of the Supreme God, he had seen many great battles, but this was the first time he had been so shocked. Had this Huang Long truly reached Great Perfection?! But was a Great Perfection higher-ranking god really that powerful?! No matter how strong a Great Perfection higher-ranking god was, it couldn’t possibly eliminate two peerless warriors with just a wave of his hand! Peerless warriors weren’t just ordinary “Blue Sea Beasts” to be slaughtered at will! Blue Sea Beasts were the lowest-tier divine beasts with no offensive power. “Great Perfection?” Huang Long paused briefly before nodding. “Sort of!” Sort of?! Li Yifeng and Zhe Luo exchanged glances, unsure of what Huang Long meant. “Let’s go!” Huang Long said, then took off into the air. Bradd and the others followed. Li Yifeng and Zhe Luo also snapped out of their daze and flew after him. “Brother Huang Long, you really hit me hard!” Li Yifeng said with a pained expression. “I was locked up in the Supreme God’s space by my father to train hard. I thought I’d be far ahead of you this time, but I never expected you to not only surpass the level of peerless warriors but also become a Great Perfection higher-ranking god!” Li Yifeng looked deeply hurt. Although Huang Long said it was “sort of” Great Perfection, Li Yifeng took it as humility and was already convinced that Huang Long had reached that state.
“Hehe, you’re not bad either. You’re already at the peak of level seven; it won’t be long before you break through to level eight,” Huang Long said with a smile.
Li Yifeng looked gloomy. “Stop comforting me. It’s not that easy to break through to level eight. Who knows, it might take billions of years before I can do it!”
Li Yifeng was telling the truth. Some peak-level seven warriors couldn’t break through even after trillions of years, remaining stuck at that level.
The higher one climbed among the Upper Gods, the harder it became to advance to the next level.
Zhero, the silver-haired strong man beside Li Yifeng, was in a state of confusion with mixed emotions. Earlier, he had wanted to “see” Huang Long’s twelve divine avatars and challenge them, but now Huang Long had easily destroyed two peerless warriors without even summoning those avatars!
Recalling how Huang Long had turned two Arnold family warriors and over a dozen Upper Gods to ashes with just a flick of his finger, he trembled deep in his heart.
“What kind of divine fire is that?!” he wondered in shock.
Although a Perfect Upper God combined nine major traits of a certain law and possessed nine primal forces, strengthening the power of their divine fire, it was still impossible to burn peerless warriors to complete ashes!
No matter how much Zhero guessed, he couldn’t connect Huang Long to the Supreme God. As all the gods agreed, without a Supreme God essence, one could never become one—maximally, they could only reach perfection.
In the end, Zhero could only attribute that terrifying divine fire to Huang Long having encountered some kind of miracle, causing the fire to mutate and gain such power.
Suddenly, Li Yifeng seemed to think of something funny and burst into laughter. Seeing the puzzled looks around him, he said, “I wonder what expression Bishop will have when he sees Brother Huang as a Perfect Upper God!”
Shock? Panic?
Everyone laughed.
“Brother Huang, who is this girl?” When the laughter stopped, Li Yifeng stepped beside Huang Long and lowered his voice to ask. It seemed only then that Li Yifeng became curious about the identities of Huang Long’s family members and Ya Mo and the others.
Li Yifeng had never met Huang Long’s family members or Ya Mo before.
Following Li Yifeng’s gaze, Huang Long saw his fourth sister and smiled. “This is my fourth sister, Huang Yi!” After that, he introduced Huang Long’s family members and Ya Mo to Li Yifeng.
When Li Yifeng heard Huang Long introduce the members of the Huang family, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes, then his face lit up with joy as he said, “So it’s Uncle and Aunt!” He then introduced himself, “I’m Li Yifeng.” Adding on, “I’m also a brother of Brother Huang Long!” Whether intentionally or not, his gaze drifted toward Huang Yi.
Huang Yi said, “My second brother has spoken of you before.” With that, she smiled brightly, like a radiant flower, leaving Li Yifeng stunned. Seeing this, Huang Yi smiled even more. This Li Yifeng was quite interesting. She had heard from Huang Long before about him, knowing that he was the son of the Lord God of the Netherworld.
The silver-haired giant Zhero nudged Li Yifeng. Only then did Li Yifeng return to reality. Sensing the strange looks from everyone, his face turned red as he chuckled, “So it’s Sister Huang Yi.”
The silver-haired giant Zhero rolled his eyes. What do you mean, “so it’s”?
Huang Long smiled and gave Li Yifeng a meaningful look before saying, “How did you two meet the people from the Arnold family?”
Hearing Huang Long ask, Li Yifeng calmed himself down and replied gloomily, “Zhero and I heard about your arrival at the Planar Battlefield, so we searched everywhere for you. But instead of finding you, we ran into those two from the Arnold family!”
Then, Li Yifeng explained their identities. Both of them were of high status—one was an envoy of the Lord God of Fate, and the other was the younger brother of the current head of the Arnold family. He had a grudge with Li Yifeng’s elder brother, so after spotting Li Yifeng, he took his anger out on him and attacked them both immediately.
Since Li Yifeng was the son of the Lord God, they didn’t dare kill him, but they could still give him a lesson.
Li Yifeng stopped speaking there. The rest was easy to imagine. If it weren’t for Huang Long and the others arriving, Li Yifeng would have suffered greatly.
“Damn it! From now on, whenever I meet someone from the Arnold family, I’ll kill them all!” Li Yifeng snapped angrily. “If they have the guts, let them take it out on my elder brother! It’s my brother who stole their women—what does it have to do with me?” The thought annoyed him. In fact, Li Yifeng knew that if he had the same strength as his elder brother, those people wouldn’t dare attack him like this!
Bulad and the others exchanged glances. Li Yifeng’s elder brother had “stolen” someone’s woman?! They never expected that to be the reason why those two top fighters from the Arnold family attacked Li Yifeng.
Just as Huang Long was about to speak, a sound of breaking through the air came from afar. Huang Long and the others looked over.
“Haha, Li Yifeng, I didn’t expect you brat to dare come to the Planar Battlefield too!” A mocking laugh rang out as the person approached.
