Chapter 360: Land of the Fallen God

That day…

Luo Yunyang intentionally spread the word that Li Feng was still alive, calming many in Great Xia Nation. However, this peace was short-lived. Those who held grudges against the Luo Family began to act in the shadows.

“Is Li Feng dead or not? It’s not something that can be proven with just words. If he’s truly alive, let him come out and prove it himself, hehe,” someone sneered.

“That’s right. I’m certain he’s already perished within the dungeon, turned to dust along with that world.”

“Li Feng is completely dead. Stop daydreaming.”

“…”

That day, many rumors unfavorable to Li Feng circulated throughout Great Xia Nation.

“Li Feng has a resurrection skill. Even if he died, so what? He can still come back to life.”

Faced with these attacks, Luo Yunyang was forced to reveal one of Li Feng’s trump cards. He had sensed many eyes watching them.

“What? Li Feng actually possesses a heaven-defying resurrection skill? Such a rare skill, even top factions might not have it,” many said in shock.

“I can confirm that Li Feng does indeed have a resurrection skill,” the Shang Family and other major powers stepped forward and declared.

“A bunch of insignificant scoundrels, only daring to whisper in the dark. If you have the guts, show yourselves,” Luo Yunyang retorted, refusing to back down.

That night, many retreated, no longer daring to spy on the Luo Family, afraid that the God of Slaughter, Li Feng, would suddenly appear.

It was better to believe than to disbelieve. Li Feng’s growth had been too legendary, as if all fortuitous encounters had piled up on him. Mastering a resurrection skill wasn’t surprising.

“Hmm, let’s wait and see. There’s no need to rush,” someone in a position of power said.

However, there were still some insignificant troublemakers, jumping up and down, constantly instigating. They were remnants of the three great families that Li Feng had destroyed.

Now, filled with resentment, they wanted to see the Luo Family suffer.

“Kill!”

Faced with these people, Luo Yunyang didn’t waste words. He directly issued a bounty, offering a hefty reward for their capture. Several experts were tempted.

The result was that for several days, blood flowed freely, and countless heads rolled. Luo Yunyang’s decisive action immediately deterred many.

Of course, some people also said resentfully, “The Luo Family must be feeling guilty. They’re afraid that we’ve inadvertently revealed the truth. Otherwise, why would they spend so much to silence us?”

Luo Yunyang responded forcefully to these rumors, “If you dare to stick your noses where they don’t belong, I dare to chop off your heads.”

His domineering demeanor made some truly believe that Li Feng was still alive.

Only when he was alone did he look worriedly at the sky, murmuring, “I believe you will definitely return.”

…

…

Outside of Sky Blue Star!

This place was not pleasant. The stars were dim, and corpses, blood, axes, and halberds were scattered everywhere. The void was filled with the stench of blood and the aura of slaughter, making it uninhabitable.

At this moment, within a desolate planet…

A small cat was leaping about, each jump covering thousands of feet, cracking the ground beneath its paws. It was a terrifying sight.

It was a black cat with glossy fur, one red eye and one black eye. Dense runes swirled around its body, giving it a mysterious aura.

Strangely, this large cat held a prayer strip in its paw, muttering to itself like an old charlatan.

Boom!

Just as the black cat was about to leap off the planet, dense divine runes appeared in the sky, combining to form terrifying weapons like spears, blades, and halberds, slashing down towards it.

“Oh no, I miscalculated again!”

The black cat cried out, its body radiating a brilliant light. It swatted with its paw, shattering all the weapons.

However, it was also severely injured, forced to the ground, coughing up blood, its fur covered in dust and dirt.

“Tsk, tsk. I’m so unlucky. Before I came, I even went to pray for blessings, but it wasn’t effective at all.”

The black cat muttered to itself discontentedly, “Eighty-one paths to life, and I’ve tried eighty wrong ones. My luck is truly terrible. My reputation as Celestial Cat is ruined here. Fortunately, no one saw it, or I would die of shame.”

As it spoke, the black cat’s body glowed brilliantly. Its wounds began to clot and heal at an astonishing speed.

Soon, the cat’s fur regained its luster. It stood up straight and grumbled, “Finally, I can leave this damned place.”

For a dignified Celestial Cat to be trapped on an ancient star, it would be a laughingstock if word got out.

Hum!

The Celestial Cat took out a copper coin and tossed it forward. It transformed into a streak of light, growing larger along the way, like a blade, with terrifying runes interweaving on its surface, emitting a dazzling light.

Rumble!

Divine runes lit up across the planet, brilliant and wave-like, suppressing the copper coin.

Whoosh!

The copper coin was unstoppable, tearing open a path. The Celestial Cat followed behind, laughing triumphantly, “So what if it’s an ancient star of a fallen god? It still can’t trap this Celestial Cat.”

It was incredibly fast, as swift as lightning, almost rushing out of the ancient star. The divine runes behind it grew even more terrifying, like a monstrous tidal wave, accumulating energy.

However, all of this was no longer the Celestial Cat’s concern. It was about to leave this place, unafraid of the turbulent forces behind it.

Boom!

Just as the Celestial Cat was about to escape the ancient star, the void suddenly shattered. Endless spatial power erupted, accompanied by a terrifying killing force, boundless and horrifying.

“D*mn it, what the h*ll is this?” The Celestial Cat wailed, stopping in its tracks. It was struck by the spatial power and crashed to the ground.

Suddenly, a meteor fell from the sky with astonishing force.

The Celestial Cat cried out again, dodging quickly. With a boom, a large crater formed where it had been.

At the same time, the copper coin flew back, and the only escape route was sealed by the divine runes.

Despair filled its face.

…

…

Inside the crater!

A man suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of golden light flashing within them. “Where is this? A little cat?”

It was Li Feng. The Black Dragon’s self-destruction had ripped through space, and he had fallen into the depths of the spatial turbulence, where he revived, along with Xiao Ling.

Because the spatial turbulence in the depths was too dangerous, he could be annihilated by the terrifying spatial energy at any moment. Even Li Feng wasn’t confident he could survive there for long.

Therefore, after awakening, he immediately used Gravity Bullet to break through the spatial turbulence, arriving at this unfamiliar place, and saw a small black cat.

Li Feng jumped out of the crater and looked around. The place was desolate, with no vegetation on the ground, only yellow mountains surrounding him. It was a scene of utter ruin, as if it had experienced some great calamity.

“Damn you, brat! You ruined my plans! I’m going to make you pay!” The Celestial Cat saw Li Feng immediately, its face contorted in rage.

◈◈◈

Boom!

Fury surged within it. After all its calculations, its plans were ruined by Li Feng, making it lose its temper and attack directly.

Countless bolts of lightning erupted from its body, like a lightning ferret, pouncing towards Li Feng. The space crackled with electricity.

Clang! Clang!

“How bizarre.” Li Feng circulated his breathing technique, activating his armor, and punched back with equal force, unleashing a boundless light.

Having arrived in an unfamiliar environment and seeing an electrifying black cat, he didn’t dare to be careless, using all his strength.

Bang!

The Celestial Cat screamed and flew backward. Midway through its flight, it abruptly stopped, the terrifying inertia erupting with astonishing force, causing the air to explode. It spat out a mouthful of blood, but its fur stood on end in terror. Behind it, a large swathe of divine runes lit up, brilliant and terrifying, emanating a dreadful killing intent.

“Who the h*ll are you? How can you be so powerful?” the Celestial Cat shrieked. It was almost half a step into the Source Level and confident in suppressing any opponent of the same level, but it was sent flying by Li Feng with a single punch.

It could tell that Li Feng was in the same realm, with no Source Power fluctuating around him.

“I should be asking you that. Why did you attack me for no reason? This is our first meeting,” Li Feng said coldly, his mood souring.

He already thought these otherworldly creatures were ferocious, but he didn’t expect to be attacked upon first sight. This further solidified his belief that these otherworldly creatures couldn’t coexist peacefully with Sky Blue Star.

“You brat have the nerve to ask? You ruined my important business! Come here and be my mount, and I might forgive your transgression.”

Li Feng’s words only further enraged the Celestial Cat. It had meticulously planned its escape from this damned planet, but Li Feng had thwarted it, making it seethe with resentment.

“Mount? What arrogance. I happen to be lacking a mount. I think you’ll do nicely,” Li Feng retorted, refusing to be outdone.

“Argh! I, Celestial Cat, have never shed blood in my life, but today I’ll break that rule. I won’t stop until you’re bleeding from every orifice!” the Celestial Cat roared.

Pfft!

A copper coin shot out from its mouth, transforming into a terrifying beam of light. Dense runes interwove on the coin, radiating a terrifying aura as it pressed towards Li Feng.

Li Feng was surprised, looking at the Celestial Cat repeatedly. From its words, he sensed that it wasn’t inherently evil.

But now that it dared to attack him, he didn’t care what it was. He would beat it up first and ask questions later.

Bang!

He swung his longsword, the sword light piercing the heavens. Divine runes lit up in the sky, thunder rumbled, blocking the copper coin.

Swish!

At that moment, a sword light appeared, leaving Li Feng dumbfounded. A cat was holding the Peach Blossom Sword, thrusting towards him.

Peach blossoms fell from the sky, crystal clear and radiating light, forming a massive killing formation. Danger lurked everywhere.

“Heavenly Derivation Sword Technique!”

Li Feng roared, unleashing the Heavenly Derivation Sword Technique. Starlight descended from the sky, unstoppable even by the divine runes, blocking the cat’s sword and formation.

“Heaven and Man as One!” the Celestial Cat cried, leaping and dodging, its movements erratic, leaving a Dao marking in every space it occupied.

Hum!

Light erupted around them, and a Black Tortoise appeared. From its shell, a Bagua Formation emerged, sealing off the area, severing the starlight.

Li Feng’s movements faltered, his sword technique disrupted. He felt extremely uncomfortable.

Bang!

The Celestial Cat attacked again with its sword, like a feline swordsman. Li Feng could only exclaim in disbelief. He struggled to defend, but was still sent flying.

Crackle! Crackle! To his horror, the Peach Blossom Sword crackled with electricity, making his hair stand on end.

“Brat, just be my mount obediently. It’s your honor. So many have wanted to serve me, but I haven’t even spared them a glance,” the Celestial Cat said proudly, boasting even as it attacked.

Perhaps it was right. To be able to fight Li Feng to this extent at the same level, its strength was truly terrifying. It was a formidable prodigy.

But Li Feng wasn’t interested in being a cat’s mount.

“Suppress!” Li Feng roared. A miniature figure flew out from his forehead, merging into his longsword, erupting with terrifying power. The sword light blazed brilliantly.

Boom!

“What kind of monster are you?” the Celestial Cat shrieked again, sent flying, coughing up blood.

“I’m human! You’re the monster,” Li Feng emphasized, attacking again, as mighty as an ancient god, determined to subdue this strange Celestial Cat.

Bang! Bang!

After a fierce exchange, the Celestial Cat was finally pinned to the ground by Li Feng, its head pounded with blows.

Li Feng didn’t kill it because he sensed that the Celestial Cat truly had no killing intent. There might be some misunderstanding.

Hum!

Suddenly, star-like divine runes lit up in the sky, interweaving into terrifying divine light, emanating an aura of destruction.

“Stop, stop, enough! If we don’t stop, we’ll both die here!” the Celestial Cat pleaded, feeling goosebumps all over its body after sensing the change in the sky.

Li Feng also sensed something was wrong. After two more punches, he stopped and asked, “What’s going on here?”

He looked up at the sky, feeling as if some danger was targeting him, ready to unleash a terrifying attack at any moment.

The Celestial Cat, its eyes swollen, looked at Li Feng resentfully and said, “I’m going to be killed because of you.”

Then, it slowly explained, “This is the Land of the Fallen God. A god who cultivated through slaughter died here. His blood spilled across this land. This was a god, a single drop of whose blood could shatter a small world. This ancient star couldn’t bear it and gradually withered, becoming what it is now. There’s no life here, only desolation.”

“Land of the Fallen God…” Li Feng was shocked. Just hearing the name, he knew how terrifying this place was.

To lighten the mood, he asked, “Aren’t you a creature living here? Are you a ghost?”

The Celestial Cat rolled its eyes at him. “You’re the ghost! Your whole family are ghosts! I stumbled in here by accident.”

Li Feng pointed to the sky. “You haven’t explained what’s going on up there.”

“Hmph!”

The Celestial Cat snorted coldly, not bothering to argue with him, and continued, “I’ve been trapped here for a long time. Now that someone’s here to keep me company, I’m happy to talk.”

“This planet has fused with the god’s corpse and blood. The original divine runes of this world have been tainted by runes of slaughter. Strictly speaking, this is no longer an ancient star, but a killing formation, a God’s Killing Formation.”

Its tone became dejected. “A God’s Killing Formation… Even gods fall here. Now, this formation is just beginning to revive, its power not yet fully manifested. It will become more terrifying later. So, we’re both doomed. We can’t get out. We’ll just wait here to die.”

Li Feng was silent for a moment. “You’re not human!”

Celestial Cat: “.@#@$”

It wanted to curse. What kind of person was this guy? Didn’t he know the danger they were in? He was still making fun of it.

“I am a Celestial Cat, from the Divination Clan. No race in the universe can escape my divinations. I’m far more noble than humans.” After a long while, the Celestial Cat spoke indignantly.
