Chapter 1148: Chapter 1149: Whoever Steps Forward Dies
"Does this person really dare to kill Cao Yang?"
"So audacious, the people from the Five Mountains Sword Sect probably have never suffered such a loss."
"Exactly, even among the Eight Great Families, when facing the Five Mountains Sword Sect, at most, they would defeat and humiliate but never kill. After all, killing someone means truly tearing apart the facade."
In the Ancient Demon Continent, there has always been a rule that disciples of the major forces cannot kill each other.
Although there are many disputes over competition and pride, at most, one can only defeat and humiliate, not kill.
This rule has always been popular in the Ancient Demon Continent, and no one has ever dared to break it.
After all, this rule was set by the superpowers of the entire Ancient Demon Continent together, and whoever breaks it would be against all the forces.
So when Chu Fengmian defeated Cao Yang, nobody thought much of it, but now that he had killed Cao Yang, everyone’s expression suddenly changed.
"You dare to kill?"
Senior Brother Wang looked at Chu Fengmian with extreme shock; he never expected Chu Fengmian really dared to kill regardless of the rules.
"So what if I kill? Let me tell you, that waste from the Bai family was also killed by me, so what if I kill a disciple of your Five Mountains Sword Sect?"
Chu Fengmian spoke calmly; if he wanted to kill, he would, never caring about any rules.
Heaven and earth are vast, but Chu Fengmian is the greatest rule; whoever provokes him, only death awaits.
"What?"
"Someone from the Bai family?"
"Is it Bai Ying?"
"Bai Ying was also killed by this person?"
Upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, countless onlookers turned their gazes to the direction of Bai Gongzi’s group.
The Bai family this time had come into the Myriad Beast Caverns with seven people, and now, there were only six. According to Chu Fengmian, Bai Ying had already died at his hands?
Countless people looked at Chu Fengmian, seemingly understanding.
Chu Fengmian is a complete madman, which is why he dares to disregard the rules.
A madman like this, logically, should have been taken down long ago.
But now, no one dared to act; although Chu Fengmian was crazy, he also possessed unmatched strength, able to easily destroy Cao Yang and Bai Ying. Even if Senior Brother Wang or Bai Gongzi wanted to kill Chu Fengmian, they would have to pay a high price.
"Is there anyone else who wants to die? Feel free to step forward."
Chu Fengmian swept his gaze across the disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, his eyes showing a hint of disdain.
As his gaze swept across, the eyes of those Five Mountains Sword Sect disciples showed anger. When had the people of the Five Mountains Sword Sect ever suffered such a loss?
"And if we step forward? Kid, don’t be too arrogant! Wait until the strong of our Five Mountains Sword Sect arrives..."
A disciple of the Five Mountains Sword Sect couldn’t help but speak up, just as he stepped forward, a Sword Light flashed.
The body of this Five Mountains Sword Sect disciple was directly ripped apart, his life essence completely devoured, dead in an instant.
The Sword Light was so fast that even Senior Brother Wang couldn’t stop it, and the disciple was killed by Chu Fengmian.
"Anyone else?"
Chu Fengmian devoured the life essence of the Five Mountains Sword Sect disciple, sending it all to the Divine Tree. Although ordinary immortal realm life essence didn’t have much effect on the Divine Tree.
But these Five Mountains Sword Sect disciples were geniuses, nurtured by the Sect with countless resources. Their life essence was not inferior to that of quasi-emperors.
After the Divine Tree devoured it, the power clearly became stronger, but for further advancement, this amount of life essence was far from enough.
At least, killing all these hundreds of people might be enough.
Feeling the strengthening power of the Divine Tree, Chu Fengmian’s lips curled into a smile. Now he hoped that a few more ignorant fools would come to die.
Then Chu Fengmian would kill them so that their life essence could be devoured by the Divine Tree.
However, after witnessing Chu Fengmian kill another person, those Five Mountains Sword Sect disciples were extremely furious but dared not speak, with many even retreating, fearing Chu Fengmian would strike again.
These two instances of action were enough to prove that Chu Fengmian found it easy to kill them, leaving them with no resistance.
And for them, the identity they relied on the most, the Five Mountains Sword Sect disciple, meant nothing in front of Chu Fengmian.
"Do you think Wang Qianzhong will make a move?"
"Probably not. Although Wang Qianzhong’s strength can rival this kid, dealing with him would require a huge price, and they have intentions toward the treasure of the Devouring Beast, not willing to go all out. But once someone possesses the treasure, that might change."
"The Five Mountains Sword Sect definitely won’t swallow this anger, but now they are not willing to go all out."
"This kid is only arrogant for now. Most strong ones aren’t willing to waste energy on dealing with him, which is why he can be arrogant."
There are those present who could fight Chu Fengmian or even surpass him in strength, but no one is willing to step up.
After all, the treasure of the Devouring Beast is of utmost importance, and everyone is conserving energy, preparing to vie for it.
"Chu Fengmian, I’m Wang Qianzhong. Once the treasure is won, I’ll come for your head."
The senior brother from the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Wang Qianzhong, looked at Chu Fengmian, shouted coldly, and turned to leave for another place.
As for the martial artists in that place, they were driven away; after all, except for Chu Fengmian, others were wary of clashing with the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
Chu Fengmian sat alone in the best spot, with no one daring to contest it, as many martial artists kept their distance.
Not to mention Chu Fengmian’s madness, if one stood too close, they could get caught in the crossfire once the Bai family and the Five Mountains Sword Sect acted, leaving a large area around Chu Fengmian devoid of people.
Other martial artists who had just arrived were curious about the scene before them, but they didn’t make a move on Chu Fengmian; instead, they chatted with others.
The lack of action from others proved that Chu Fengmian is not someone easy to provoke.
This made Chu Fengmian sigh; his personality has always been one of retribution. If other martial artists don’t act, then he won’t take the initiative to kill them.
However, this also meant there was no life essence for the Divine Tree.
"Fourth Prince, this is the place where the treasure of the Devouring Beast is located."
