Chapter 278 With such limited strength, are you worthy enough to covet the secrets of this king?

Dry Emperor's voice instantly made the few people present understand Li Xuanfeng's identity.

"Oh? So you are the Peerless King?"

Sword Ape Emperor's gaze locked onto that figure with a mysterious and noble aura.

"Peerless King?"

Mirror Emperor and Void Emperor were first stunned, then their Faces showed wild joy.

Although Blood Devil King didn't speak, his gaze was also tightly fixed on Li Xuanfeng.

No one expected that the Peerless King, who had just been discussed, would suddenly appear at this moment.

They had thought that Li Xuanfeng wouldn't appear in the Ancient Demon Palace, a den of dragons and tigers, but they didn't expect him to be so bold.

"Hahahahaha, good, good, good, I've been looking for you in vain, and now you've delivered yourself to my doorstep!"

Void Emperor's withered Face bloomed with an ugly smile, revealing two yellow teeth. He instantly felt that the top-grade Imperial Dao Weapon was no longer appealing.

Li Xuanfeng's secret to rapidly increasing his strength made him drool. Let alone having the same Breakthrough speed as Li Xuanfeng, even a slight increase in Breakthrough probability would make him incredibly excited.

His Cultivation Base had been stagnant at the Middle Stage of the Emperor Realm for thousands of years. He was clearly only one step away from the Late Stage of the Emperor Realm, yet that step was like a chasm. He couldn't cross it no matter what he tried. As long as he could achieve a Breakthrough, he would be willing to pay any price.

"I didn't expect such good luck. It seems I've come to the right place!"

Mirror Emperor also couldn't help but curl her lips.

Both she and Void Emperor were nearing the end of their Lifespan. Their closed-door Breakthrough had failed, and it was only because the Ancient Demon Palace appeared that they chose to come here to seek an Opportunity.

Either Breakthrough their Realm, or find a treasure medicine that could extend their Lifespan.

However, whether it was finding a Breakthrough Opportunity or snatching a treasure medicine, the hope was slim for them.

After all, too many powerhouses had poured into the Ancient Demon Palace, and even Venerable-level powerhouses were very likely to appear.

In contrast, if they could capture Li Xuanfeng and figure out the secret of his rapid Breakthrough, the difficulty would be much lower.

In the eyes of Mirror Emperor and Void Emperor, the difficulty of this matter lay in how to encounter Li Xuanfeng.

As for capturing him, it wasn't difficult.

Even Blood Devil King, who had once been a generational leader among other King Rank Cultivators and invincible in the King Realm for hundreds of years, was no match for them after breaking through to the Emperor Realm.

Even if Li Xuanfeng was more of a Prodigy than him, what then?

Could he be stronger than these old-brand Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators?

Observing the aura on Li Xuanfeng, he was still at the Peak of the King Realm.

It was indeed incredible that he could kill Xuan Puppet Emperor and Chiyang Emperor, the Sect Master of the Lijiang branch of the Black Fire Cult, both Early Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators whose strength had been greatly reduced after taking two palms from Spirit Emperor. But it wasn't enough to make Mirror Emperor and these old-brand Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators feel troublesome.

They also had methods to interrogate Li Xuanfeng about the secret of his rapid Breakthrough.

Therefore, when they saw Li Xuanfeng actually appear here voluntarily, Mirror Emperor and the others reacted with such excitement.

They all knew that Li Xuanfeng had a bell-shaped Imperial Dao Weapon, but he used a sword more often.

It was obvious that this top-grade Imperial Dao Weapon-level longsword had piqued his interest, making him want to seize it.

Unfortunately, with the three of them, old-brand Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators, present, Li Xuanfeng could neither obtain the longsword nor leave here safely.

"Peerless King…"

Blood Devil King looked at the tall figure standing in the sky above the planet, his eyes flickering.

This was the first time he had seen the person who had replaced him on the King Rank, and Battle Intent suddenly surged in his heart.

He had once been the ceiling of combat power in the King Realm. How could Li Xuanfeng surpass him?

He wanted to see exactly how powerful this person was. This Opportunity could not be missed, otherwise, he would have to find someone to calculate Li Xuanfeng's position next time.

Rumors cannot be fully trusted; true strength is shown in battle!

Blood Devil King's aura condensed, dispelling the thought of leaving.

Li Xuanfeng stood in the sky above the planet, his gaze sweeping over the scene, taking in the expressions of several people.

The three Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators looked excited, seemingly coveting the secrets on his body, believing they could catch him this time.

Blood Devil King was also eager to make a move.

Only Dry Emperor, the weakest Emperor Realm Cultivator present, was full of fear, subtly trying to retreat without a sound.

Regardless of whether Li Xuanfeng could deal with the three Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators, this place was extremely dangerous for him.

However, when Li Xuanfeng's gaze fell on him, he suddenly froze in place, feeling a vast Divine Power imprisoning the surrounding space. With his Early Stage Emperor Realm strength, he couldn't break free for a moment.

Chaos mist emerged from thin air, blocking all his escape routes.

Dry Emperor's heart instantly grew cold.

"Where are you going in such a hurry?"

Li Xuanfeng's voice came. Dry Emperor dared not move, nor could he move.

"I heard you are quite cautious in your actions, always planning before acting, and burning the ashes of those you kill. You don't easily make a move without absolute certainty. This King killed your woman; why haven't you come to seek revenge from this King after all this time?"

Li Xuanfeng's voice echoed through the palace.

"Li Xuanfeng!!!"

Dry Emperor was both shocked and angry, and also a little aggrieved.

Revenge?

Why hadn't he sought revenge from Li Xuanfeng!

He had actively participated when the four super forces surrounded Li Xuanfeng, but he hadn't even seen a shadow of Li Xuanfeng.

After Li Xuanfeng killed the greatly weakened Xuan Puppet Emperor and Chiyang Emperor, the Sect Master of the Lijiang branch, Dry Emperor understood that relying on his own strength, it would be impossible to successfully take revenge in this lifetime.

The fact that he was easily imprisoned by him now explained everything!

Dry Emperor had intended to take advantage of Mirror Emperor and the others attacking Li Xuanfeng to escape, but he didn't expect Li Xuanfeng's first target to be him!

"Tsk tsk, it seems there's a reason why the rumors about you are so exaggerated. To be able to imprison an Early Stage Emperor Realm Cultivator with this Cultivation Base, you indeed have some tricks!"

Sword Ape Emperor looked at Li Xuanfeng with a surprised expression, confirming that he only had the Cultivation Base of a Peak King Realm.

To be able to achieve this with such a Cultivation Base made it incredibly amazed. Peerless King's talent was indeed above Blood Devil King's.

It also developed an unprecedented strong interest in the secrets on Li Xuanfeng's body.

Mirror Emperor and Void Emperor's eyes lit up even more.

Although they felt that many of the rumors about Li Xuanfeng were exaggerated, they also knew that he possessed the strength to kill an Early Stage Emperor Realm Cultivator.

So, seeing this scene was not surprising; rather, they were somewhat excited.

The more of a Prodigy Li Xuanfeng showed himself to be, and the more illogical he was, the more it indicated that the secrets on his body were astonishing!

As long as they could figure out this secret, why would they worry about not being able to Breakthrough their Realm!

"Just a small trick. Want to learn? Come and be this King's mount, and this King might consider teaching you!"

Li Xuanfeng looked at Sword Ape Emperor.

Sword Ape Emperor's Face instantly changed, and Battle Intent surged through his body. A broadsword appeared in his hand, and a Middle-grade Imperial Dao Domain covering 530,000 miles descended from thin air, with endless Sword Qi filling the heavens and earth.

Li Xuanfeng's impoliteness completely exceeded its expectations.

Let alone its coveting of the secrets on Li Xuanfeng's body, the mere suggestion of it becoming a mount was enough to make Sword Ape Emperor murderous.

"Hahaha, rumors say Peerless King is extremely arrogant, and it's true!"

"But Sword Ape Emperor, don't be in a hurry. Before we figure out the secrets on his body, we can't kill him yet!"

Void Emperor laughed loudly.

"A Peak King Realm Cultivator being able to do this is indeed worthy of arrogance. If this Emperor were as much of a Prodigy as him, this Emperor would be even more arrogant!"

Mirror Emperor also couldn't help but laugh.

"Old geezer, with one foot already in the coffin, you're still spouting such big words? Can't kill this King? You make it sound like you can kill this King whenever you want. If this King were your age and still in the Middle Stage of the Emperor Realm, I'd rather find a place to bash my head in and die! Grinning with those two big yellow teeth, like a shriveled, idiotic old ghost crawled out of the ground!"

"And you, pretending to be a charming mature woman, but your body is already starting to smell like an old person. If you're not disgusted, this King feels nauseated on your behalf! And you're more arrogant than this King? Do you even have the qualifications to be arrogant?"

Li Xuanfeng's voice was full of aggression, showing no Face to any of the Emperor Realm Cultivators. Because he spoke so quickly, Void Emperor and Mirror Emperor were first stunned, then their Faces turned extremely gloomy.

"Li Xuanfeng!!!"

Two angry and sharp voices rang out. Li Xuanfeng seemed to have accurately stepped on their tails, making them furious.

Two Middle-grade Imperial Dao Domains descended simultaneously.

One was like a Realm of nothingness, and the other was like a mirrored world composed of mirrors.

Adding Sword Ape Emperor's, a total of three Middle-grade Imperial Dao Domains were fully displayed, intertwining with each other, yet also seemingly overlapping.

Their target was all Li Xuanfeng, so the three Domains did not oppose each other.

"I originally intended to give you a quick death after figuring out the secrets on your body, but now this Emperor has changed her mind. I will make you wish for death but be unable to die!"

Mirror Emperor's Face was distorted with anger.

She hated it when others commented on her appearance. Everyone who dared to comment on her lightly would surely be tortured to death by her.

When she was young, she indeed had some charm, but as her Lifespan neared its end, she had become an old hag. Her current appearance was completely maintained by force.

"This Emperor will make you experience all the Soul tortures!"

Void Emperor's rage was equally uncontrollable, his white beard trembling with anger.

On the contrary, Sword Ape Emperor felt a little better in his heart; he hadn't been cursed so badly.

Blood Devil King in the distance opened his mouth, then swallowed the words that had just reached his throat.

He had originally intended to challenge Li Xuanfeng, but he didn't expect Li Xuanfeng to not even bother with pleasantries, showing no Face at all, precisely hurting the things the three old-brand Emperor Realm Cultivators cared about most, making them furious.

If he had spoken, he probably wouldn't have fared any better.

Whoosh!

A startling beam of light shot out from the bronze mirror, intending to engulf Li Xuanfeng.

Buzz!

An energy millstone descended from thin air, intending to crush Li Xuanfeng into powder.

Swish!

A terrifying Sword Light roared out, slashing towards Li Xuanfeng.

The power of these three attacks was extremely terrifying, but the three Emperor Realm Cultivators did not use their full strength. At least these attacks would not completely obliterate the Physical Body and Soul, just like how they dealt with Blood Devil King earlier.

Although they wished they could kill Li Xuanfeng, if Li Xuanfeng was truly killed by them in one blow, the secret to rapidly increasing one's Realm would be forever out of their reach.

"An Opportunity!"

Dry Emperor, who was imprisoned by Li Xuanfeng in the distance, held his breath.

As long as the three Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators could defeat Li Xuanfeng, he could seize the chance to escape.

On the other side, Blood Devil King's expression was solemn. He had just endured three such attacks, and his Physical Body had been crushed.

No, to be precise, Li Xuanfeng was enduring even more terrifying attacks than he had just endured, because the three Middle Stage Emperor Realm Cultivators had not used their Domains against him earlier!

There was still a huge gap between him and the old-brand Middle Stage King Realm Cultivators.

It seemed slow in description, but everything happened in an instant.

When the three attacks descended simultaneously, the rule restrictions of the three Domains also simultaneously bound Li Xuanfeng.

Sword Ape Emperor's Domain contained endless Sword Qi, intending to cut him into minced meat.

Mirror Emperor's Domain affected the Soul, making Li Xuanfeng feel that the three attacks came from all directions, and each direction's attack seemed real, making it hard to know where to defend.

Void Emperor's Domain unleashed an invisible force, intending to obliterate Li Xuanfeng's spiritual Qi and Divine Sense into nothingness.

Li Xuanfeng's expression remained normal. How could these rules affect him? Chaos mist surged out of thin air, condensing into two giant hands at an indescribable speed, directly meeting the three attacks.

Puff!

The beam of light from the bronze mirror was crushed by the enormous hand, scattering into countless light particles.

Boom!

The energy millstone, which seemed capable of grinding all things into oblivion, was shattered by a punch from the Chaos mist fist.

Clap!

The two large Chaos mist hands, like catching a blade bare-handed, easily clamped down on Sword Ape Emperor's sword-slashing energy, then exerted force, shattering the Sword Light.

"What?!"

Sword Ape Emperor, Void Emperor, Mirror Emperor, Blood Devil King, and Dry Emperor all widened their eyes in disbelief at the same moment.

If Li Xuanfeng could block the three attacks, they could accept it, but to so easily and casually disperse their attacks completely exceeded their expectations.

"With this little strength, you dare to covet the secrets on this King's body?"

The Azure Nether Sword, which already had a crack, appeared in Li Xuanfeng's hand.

"Go all out, let's cripple him first!"

Sword Ape Emperor's expression was solemn, and a faint sense of unease rose in his heart.

Void Emperor and Mirror Emperor didn't speak, but they tacitly agreed to Sword Ape Emperor's suggestion.

Buzz!!!

Three terrifying energies surged, and the three overlapping Domains intertwined, pressing down on Li Xuanfeng together.

"Xiao Qing, let's have one last battle together!"

Energy poured into the Azure Nether Sword, pushing the power of the top-grade King Dao Weapon to its limit.

"Xiao Qing is willing to accompany Master in the final battle!"

The joyful voice of the Sword Spirit rang out.

Li Xuanfeng nodded lightly, took a step, and transformed into lightning.

When he reappeared, he was already behind Sword Ape Emperor.

"Big gorilla, you're also learning to use a sword like a swordsman. Do you even know how to use it?"

Li Xuanfeng's cold voice rang out. Sword Ape Emperor was first startled, then enraged. He wasn't some big gorilla; he was of the Divine Power Ape race!

Puff!

However, just as the angry emotions filled his brain, before Sword Ape Emperor could counterattack or dodge, his head flew into the air.

"Roar!"

A great roar shook the heavens and earth. Sword Ape Emperor's original eight-foot body instantly swelled, transforming into a giant ape ten thousand zhang tall.

The broadsword in his hand also grew to several thousand zhang!

Swish, swish!

However, everything was in vain. Two Sword Lights flashed, and Sword Ape Emperor's connection with his Domain was severed.

His head and the headless ten-thousand-zhang body were also split in half.

Chaos surged, rapidly corroding it.

Fear, like a tide, engulfed Sword Ape Emperor. He knew he was finished; he couldn't remove this Chaos mist.

Li Xuanfeng no longer paid attention to him and appeared behind Void Emperor.

"Old geezer, you want to make this King experience Soul torture? Why don't this King send you on your way first!"

The Azure Nether Sword slashed down vertically.

"Virtualization!"

Void Emperor's expression was greatly alarmed. Sword Ape Emperor being instantly killed had given him a huge mental shock.

"Did this King permit you to virtualize?"

Chaos mist surged in all directions, forming an energy cage that isolated Void Emperor from the outside world.

"What?!"

Void Emperor was greatly shocked. His body, which had already begun to turn transparent, gradually became solid again.

His so-called virtualization was merely disassembling himself into billions of invisible particles, merging into space, and fleeing in all directions. This move could avoid many fatal attacks.

However, the cage formed by the Chaos mist forced countless particles back!

Swish!

The longsword descended, and Void Emperor was split in half.

"Peerless King!"

Feeling his body and Soul being eroded into nothingness bit by bit, Void Emperor discovered that his method of grinding all things into nothingness seemed somewhat inferior compared to Li Xuanfeng's Chaos mist!

He had originally wanted to challenge Li Xuanfeng, but he didn't expect Li Xuanfeng to not even bother with pleasantries, showing no Face at all, precisely hurting the things the three old-brand Emperor Realm Cultivators cared about most, making them furious.
