Chapter 36 The Dao Palace Deity Defeats Little Peng King
Shi Feng entered the main hall, and everyone present rose to pay their respects.
"Your Highness."
Shi Feng nodded in acknowledgment, his gaze sweeping over Yan Ruyu and the little dragon king in green robes before settling on a man with long, flowing blond hair, his eyes sharp and piercing.
"Is this the Golden-Winged Roc King?"
"Yes."
The little dragon king in green robes introduced himself, "He is a descendant of the Peng King, and his cultivation is unfathomable. He has come to pay a visit after hearing of Your Highness's reputation."
Shi Feng walked slowly forward and sat down next to Yan Ruyu. He noticed that two dazzling beams of light shot out from the eyes of the Golden-Winged Roc King, which were captivating.
Oh? It wasn't just coming for me?
Shi Feng remembered that in the original story, the Golden-Winged Roc King seemed to want to propose to Yan Ruyu.
He looked at Yan Ruyu beside him; her white dress trailed in the dust, like clouds and mist, her black hair dancing lightly.
Her beautiful eyes were hazy, as if covered with a layer of misty water, and her temperament was pure and otherworldly, just like a lotus, elegant and refined, neither seductive nor alluring.
Although the palace was adorned with exotic flowers, rare herbs, pearls, and beautiful jade, dazzling and radiant, they all paled in comparison to Yan Ruyu's graceful figure, becoming mere embellishments.
Even though he had seen many beauties in the Eastern Wilderness, Shi Feng still thought that Yan Ruyu's beauty was the best.
He casually picked up a red fruit from the table: "Two months have passed, and Princess Yan's beauty is even more captivating than before. I had intended to present her with a Youth-Preserving Pill as a gift, but I felt it would be too wasteful. Perhaps in a while, Princess Yan's beauty will reach an even higher level. It would be such a pity to freeze her beauty here."
"A youth-preserving pill?"
Yan Ruyu's beautiful eyes lit up. She had taken it to heart when Shi Feng tried to get Ye Fan to eat it, but she was too embarrassed to ask Shi Feng for it. She didn't expect him to be willing to give it to her.
The little dragon king in blue asked, "I've never heard of the Youth-Preserving Pill. From Your Highness's description, it can freeze one's appearance?"
"Yes."
Shi Feng said, "Whatever you eat will make you look like that before you die."
The men present showed little interest, but the women's eyes sparkled with desire.
This elixir is incredibly attractive to women, who are in the prime of their youth and wouldn't want to freeze their beauty forever?
Shi Feng took out a small porcelain bottle containing the Youth-Preserving Pill and handed it to Yan Ruyu:
"Princess Yan, please don't take it too early, it would be such a waste."
Yan Ruyu smiled and said, "Your Highness can just call me Ruyu. I also want to aspire to the throne of the Great Emperor, so I don't need this pill for now. I won't disappoint Your Highness."
Shi Feng took a sip of the fine wine in his cup and felt the gazes in the palace grow even more intense, not only from the beautiful and charming enchantresses, but also from the Golden-Winged Roc King.
Seeing the intimate interaction between Shi Feng and Yan Ruyu, his gaze sharpened, and he couldn't help but stand up:
"Your Highness is also skilled in alchemy? Could it be that this period of seclusion is for alchemy?"
"I know nothing about alchemy; this Youth Preservation Pill was obtained by chance."
Shi Feng smiled at him, "When I'm in seclusion, I'm naturally cultivating."
The Golden-Winged Roc King's eyes gleamed, and his entire body exuded a demonic aura.
"Your Highness's reputation is renowned far and wide, and your Dao Palace surpasses all others in the four directions. I have long heard of it in the Central Region. Now that Your Highness has stepped into the four directions, I wonder if you could offer me some guidance?"
The little dragon king in green frowned: "Brother Peng, are you trying to provoke His Highness?"
The Golden-Winged Roc King's gaze was intense: "What is provocation? I am merely overjoyed to see Your Highness and wish to spar with you. What do we cultivators have to fear in battle? The path to becoming a Great Emperor is forged through bloodshed."
He believed that Shi Feng might be able to defeat the Four Extremes with the Dao Palace, but the claim that a Dao Palace at its peak could instantly kill the Four Extremes was too over-the-top, and he felt there must be some exaggeration involved.
So what if he is the successor of the Azure Emperor? He firmly believes that he will never be defeated and is destined to become an emperor. Defeating the successor of the Azure Emperor in front of everyone is the first step on his path to becoming an emperor!
"Okay."
Shi Feng smiled and said, "I also want to see the Golden-Winged Roc's ultimate techniques."
The most troublesome thing about the Golden-Winged Roc is its Heavenly Roc Speed.
Unfortunately, his Heavenly Roc Speed was ineffective against Shi Feng's Kunpeng Speed.
"This palace can't withstand our attack. Let's go outside and fight."
"good!"
The Golden-Winged Roc King transformed into a golden light and immediately rushed out of the palace, standing high in the sky, releasing his powerful demonic energy without any concealment.
Instead, Shi Feng sat down and poured himself a cup of wine. While everyone was puzzled, a deity emerged from his body, his whole body golden and exuding a murderous aura, with a face exactly like his.
It is the deity of the lungs of Shi Feng.
"You intend to use the deities of the Dao Palace to fight against the Golden-Winged Roc King?"
The little dragon king in green robes advised, "The Golden Roc's physical body is unparalleled; aren't you being a bit too presumptuous?"
If it were any other deity from a Daoist palace, they would probably be blown apart in a single strike.
"It's alright, the deity I cultivated is different from others."
Shi Feng was not joking. During the Four Extremes Heavenly Tribulation, all the precious materials he had integrated into his body were tempered. A bit of the essence extracted from the weapon was integrated into the spirit of the lungs, the essence of the immortal fire was integrated into the spirit of the heart, and the essence of the Taiyi True Water was integrated into the spirit of the kidneys.
These three deities all underwent incredible changes.
The spirit of the lungs, aided by the heart and kidneys, is forged by water and fire, like a precious sword, its fierce aura soaring to the heavens, invincible.
Yan Ruyu also wanted to persuade Shi Feng, but the deity of the lungs had already soared into the sky and met the Golden-Winged Roc King face to face.
Shi Feng downed the wine in his cup in one gulp, raised the wine pot, and said to everyone with a smile:
"Do you think he can hold out until I finish this pot of wine?"
Outside, the Golden-Winged Roc King sensed the golden aura emanating from Shi Feng and couldn't help but sneer inwardly. To fight him, he actually had to wear armor and treasure clothes for protection. It seemed that the successor of the Azure Emperor was nothing but a hollow name.
"Let's fight!"
His eyes burned brightly, and divine light flowed around him as he charged straight toward Shi Feng with unparalleled speed, like a golden lightning bolt.
Shi Feng raised his hand and unleashed a massive handprint in the void. The pitch-black giant hand descended from the sky, covering all directions, and went straight for the Golden-Winged Roc King.
Golden-Winged Roc King put aside his contempt; he hadn't expected Shi Feng to be able to keep up with his Heavenly Roc Speed.
"The successor of the Azure Emperor is indeed quite capable."
Gold and black clashed, like a tsunami sweeping in all directions.
Yan Ruyu and the others who came out to watch the battle were shocked. They did not expect that Shi Feng's strength was so terrifying, that a Dao Palace deity could actually be on par with the Golden-Winged Roc King.
The two fought relentlessly, their battle causing mountains to crumble and the earth to split. The Golden-Winged Roc King let out a long roar:
"Your physical body is not as strong as my Heavenly Roc True Form!"
Those below exchanged bewildered glances, and even the followers of the Golden-Winged Roc King showed no sign of joy.
Tianpeng's physical body should have been unparalleled in the world, but now, compared with the Dao Palace deities of the same realm, even if he is slightly better, he still loses face.
They looked at Shi Feng, who was still leisurely drinking, and felt even more awe in their hearts.
So unfathomable, truly worthy of being a descendant of the Azure Emperor.
In the sky, the Golden-Winged Roc King's fighting spirit soared even higher, his demonic aura surged, and streaks of sword light shot into the sky:
"One hundred and eight thousand swords!"
Those were divine swords he had meticulously forged from the feathers of the Divine Roc. Rows of them hung in the void, each emitting dazzling sword energy, its sharpness tearing through the air, its killing intent surging like a tide, chilling and awe-inspiring.
Shi Feng lightly picked up a blue lotus with his fingertips. The lotus shadow swayed, and a Daoist charm arose spontaneously. With a few casual strokes, he shattered all the sword energy.
"That's the Azure Lotus Imperial Weapon!"
Someone exclaimed in surprise, but the little dragon king in green robes, with his superior eyesight, corrected him, saying, "That is not an imperial weapon, but a divine form condensed to imitate an imperial weapon. I wonder what kind of secret technique it is that can imitate the appearance of an imperial weapon."
Imperial weapons embody the Emperor's Dao and principles; even if they merely mimic the form, they are enough to crush all enemies.
Three thousand divine swords rang out in unison, their sword energy soaring to the sky as they cleaved and attacked. The endless sword light seemed intent on destroying everything, but Shi Feng, wielding the Azure Lotus Divine Form, easily pierced through it.
A powerful divine force swept across, blasting the Golden-Winged Roc King away. He coughed up blood, staining the sky with blood, and his body began to crack.
Everyone was incredulous. The Golden-Winged Roc King had actually been defeated? Defeated by Shi Feng, a fellow member of the Four Extremes, using the power of a Dao Palace deity?
Shi Feng did not pursue, but stood still: "Golden-Winged Roc King, do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?"
"Again!"
Unwilling to admit defeat, the Golden-Winged Roc King transformed into a giant roc, its golden divine flames blazing fiercely. Behind him, a golden divine bird appeared, entangled with a true dragon.
The Sky Roc Soars Through the Dragon!
It is both an unusual phenomenon and a deadly technique.
"What a coincidence, you're fighting dragons, and so am I."
Shi Feng still held the green lotus in his hand, and dragon-shaped flames shot into the sky.
In the lineage of the Azure Emperor, there is also an Azure Emperor Dragon-Fighting Technique, which is said to be able to fight against Vermilion Birds, Dragons, Kunpengs, and Celestial Phoenixes in the Immortal Realm.
He only grasped the basics, but it was enough to deal with the Golden-Winged Roc King, who was also one of the Four Extremes.
When the Azure Lotus struck, the Golden-Winged Roc King's limbs were severed, and he was almost cleaved into pieces by the Stone Wind.
He fell from the sky and was caught by his own followers, but the Golden-Winged Roc King was ungrateful:
"Get out of the way, I can still fight!"
The followers advised, "My lord, you have already lost. Please stop."
"I haven't lost yet!"
Golden-Winged Roc King wanted to take out the Great Wilderness Halberd that Old Roc King had given him for self-defense, and fought Shi Feng again.
He was very confident that Shi Feng was not as strong as the legends said. If he were truly a Dao Palace Perfection cultivator who could instantly kill the Four Extremes, how could he have fought him to a standstill?
The little dragon king in green robes advised:
"Brother Peng, stop. The one His Highness is fighting is not his true form."
"What?!"
The Golden-Winged Roc King stood up and, following the guidance of the Azure-Clad Little Flood Dragon King, looked into the palace.
With his sharp eyesight, he saw Shi Feng leisurely drinking his wine, and noticing his gaze, Shi Feng even raised a toast to him.
"You're doing pretty well to last until the fifth drink."
He glanced at the Lung God who had just fought him in the sky, then descended and merged into Shi Feng's body.
Truly a deity of the Dao Palace!
The Golden-Winged Roc King's face turned ashen instantly.
"I actually lost to his Dao Palace deity!"
Thinking back to how he had mistakenly believed that the golden aura of the Dao Palace deity was a protective armor, he secretly scoffed at the other party for being nothing special.
Looking back now, it's an absolute joke.
Xiao Peng's face turned pale and then red, extremely embarrassed.
His internal energy was in turmoil, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood. His body swayed, and he fainted.
