Chapter 328: Crazy

However, when some of these top-tier kings arrived, they were all taken aback, as the scene on the island was quite different from what they had imagined.

The old grandmaster, the Golden-Winged Roc King, the Crane King, the Peacock King, and the Nine-Lives Cat King were in a tense standoff, yet the main figure remained calm and was conducting business!

It could even be said that the main figure was quite leisurely, introducing his method of nurturing weapons to the evolvers, showing no nervousness and completely unconcerned about the potential king-level battle that might erupt.

“What’s going on?” The top-tier kings who had rushed from another island exchanged bewildered glances, all completely confused. They looked at Chu Feng, wondering how he could maintain such a good attitude when he was supposedly crippled.

He now looked almost like an experienced "salesperson," mesmerizing the surrounding crowd as they gazed at the dagger in his hand.

Chu Feng solemnly presented his weapon-nurturing method, explaining its various wonders: how it could transform decay into marvels, allowing various weapons to advance in rank, and even help major financial groups forge flying swords and other artifacts.

“Why do I feel like he’s turned into a great swindler? What kind of weapon-nurturing method is he promoting, and what’s so special about it?” The newly arrived kings, who didn't understand the situation, were all skeptical.

However, it was clear that the people nearby were listening intently and were quite engaged, because the dagger in Chu Feng’s hand emitted a faint glow, drawing in free-floating energy as if undergoing refinement, and began to shimmer with spiritual radiance.

“Heh, so this is what the Demonic King Chu has come to? You’ve become a peddler, selling daggers? Where is the invincible spirit you had three months ago?” A marine creature from the ocean spoke.

This was a sea monkey, its entire body covered in dense, bronze-like scales that glinted coldly, even on its face, making it appear somewhat terrifying.

Chu Feng remained calm and said, “Monkey, I didn’t kill you back on Dragon Tiger Mountain, and it’s one thing if you don’t know how to be grateful, but now you’ve come here to mock me. Your character is truly terrible.”

Upon hearing these words, the sea monkey immediately became enraged, revealing its ferocious nature and emitting a chilling killing intent.

However, other masters showed surprise and seemed to understand something as they looked towards the not-so-distant figures.

The Palace Master of Jade Void Palace had a peaceful expression, showing not a ripple of emotion.

Many people understood that Chu Feng’s words had a deeper meaning. This was not merely to provoke the ferocious sea monkey, but also to satirize people like the Palace Master of Jade Void Palace.

Back then, Chu Feng had journeyed a thousand miles to Dragon Tiger Mountain, waging a great slaughter and fiercely battling the marine powerhouses, saving a group of top-tier land kings, an act that shook the world.

It could be said that he had bestowed a great life-saving favor upon some people, but some of them later failed him, especially when they didn't invite him to another island recently. If word got out, it would be disheartening.

As evolvers, they were naturally sharp-sensed, and some people looked at the Palace Master of Jade Void Palace and others.

However, this did not provoke the Palace Master of Jade Void Palace to act or to become angry.

“Friends from the marine race, now that you have arrived on land, please adhere to your promises and do not arbitrarily unleash killing intent. We need to cooperate sincerely to confront the calamities that may descend from beyond our domain at any time.”

The Palace Master of Jade Void Palace spoke, and his words were surprisingly impartial and peaceful, leaving no room for criticism.

Then, he looked at Chu Feng, as if he hadn’t heard the stinging words earlier, and sighed softly, “Chu Feng, Jade Void Palace has found some ways to heal your body. I will tell you about them shortly.”

Everyone looked suspicious, showing expressions of doubt.

“Heh, that’s very thoughtful, Palace Master,” Chu Feng said, without saying anything else.

The sea monkey had a volatile temper and a strong killing intent. It glared fiercely at Chu Feng, taking a step forward, intending to kill him. It certainly wouldn’t listen to the Palace Master of Jade Void Palace.

“Don’t be so reckless.”

A woman spoke. She was very tall and had an excellent figure, with long, shimmering aquamarine hair and a pair of tiny dragon horns nestled among her locks. Her beauty was otherworldly, truly breathtaking.

She was on par with the national goddess, a rare beauty possessing a classical charm, yet she wore modern human attire.

Most evolvers didn't know her identity, but all the top-tier kings present knew she was the Dragon Maiden from the East Sea!

All the marine creatures present, whether it was the sea monkey or the mermen, regarded her with respect and obeyed her commands.

The sea monkey, covered in bronze scales, after hearing her rebuke, unusually quieted down and dared not make another move.

“Good monkey, you’re so obedient.” To everyone’s surprise, Chu Feng was unconcerned and completely fearless. He looked at the menacing sea monkey and directly provoked it with his words.

“Kid, are you tired of living?” The sea monkey was furious.

Even the Dragon Maiden’s persuasion wouldn’t stop it now. With a whoosh, it darted forward, intending to tear Chu Feng apart or smack him into a pulp.

A mountain tortoise appeared. It didn’t attack, but merely blocked the way, allowing the sea monkey to strike its golden-patterned shell with a claw, blocking its path as energy surged.

The Kongtong Sect Master appeared, standing perfectly still and blocking the sea monkey’s fierce attack.

This was one of the ten greatest masters of the East, having lived for at least one to two thousand years. Its luck, however, was not good enough; if it had discovered a strange fruit during the subtle celestial and terrestrial changes years ago, with its profound foundation, it would have been enough to dominate the world.

This was a spiritual old tortoise that had lived for an immensely long time.

At this moment, everyone gasped. Chu Feng had accumulated too many good connections; anyone who stepped forward had a significant background and could help him out of trouble!

“Senior, don’t stop it, let it come over. I want to test the strength of my domain,” Chu Feng said. Then he waved at the sea monkey and said, “Monkey, come here.”

Everyone was speechless. Even the Kongtong Sect Master, the old mountain tortoise, opened its mouth but ultimately stepped aside in silence.

“Wah-yah-yah, you’re infuriating your monkey ancestor!” With a rumble, the sea monkey charged forward, its scales gleaming, and extended its large claw towards Chu Feng. The sight was slightly terrifying, the very space around it distorted.

The result was that the scene here, in the next moment, was astonishing. Energy surged violently, the ground glowed, forming mysterious patterns as if cast from molten iron.

With a clang, Chu Feng reinserted the dagger into the ground. Numerous energies could be seen spreading forward, converging on the dagger, making it almost transparent.

The sea monkey’s energy was drawn in by the domain, completely absorbed, and then fed back to nourish the dagger at the center.

This was very strange and astonishing, leaving everyone moved.

“Everyone, look,” Chu Feng introduced, “the dagger’s spiritual radiance is growing, and its quality is improving.”

He was taking a bit of a risk. Today, he had set up two layers of domains here; one was his most proficient weapon-nurturing method.

There was also another type of domain, disassembled from a large offensive domain, including symbols that could make one lose their soul, and runes for drawing in and transferring energy.

The sea monkey was stumbling around there. It didn’t faint, but felt a slight headache, affected by the soul-draining domain symbols.

“Argh…” it yelled, and was about to charge in.

“Monkey, don’t cause trouble. I’m demonstrating the weapon-nurturing method. Please step aside,” Chu Feng said.

The Kongtong Sect Master was about to intervene again, but the Dragon Maiden spoke first. Her expression was solemn as she ordered the sea monkey to retreat, then came closer, staring at the dagger in the domain.

In fact, all the top-tier kings present felt something and realized the astonishing value of this domain.

Because their divine senses were frighteningly sharp, they clearly felt that the dagger was being nourished by some mysterious power, its quality strengthening, and its spirituality growing.

In such a short time, there were already subtle changes. If it were nurtured by that domain for several months or even years, what kind of changes would occur? It would certainly be even more astonishing.

“I believe your words; you can nurture weapons. I have an artifact here, and I wonder if you can nourish it,” the Dragon Maiden spoke, directly offering Chu Feng business.

“No problem, I can turn an ordinary sword into a flying sword. Nurturing spiritual weapons is even easier,” Chu Feng chuckled. Regardless of whether he could truly do it, he definitely had to boast first.

Unexpectedly, the Dragon Maiden actually nodded seriously and said, “Indeed, there are such records on the undersea stone carvings, stating that one can use the power of domains to transform ordinary iron into divine weapons!”

At this moment, many people were shocked and instantly enlightened: Chu Feng’s weapon-nurturing method was far more important than they had imagined!

Forces from all sides could no longer remain calm. Even the Peacock King and the Nine-Lives Cat King were alarmed, wondering if the so-called domains could truly be so heaven-defying.

Some major powers were even more eager. They now had top-tier kings and had even conquered famous mountains, but what they lacked most were spiritual weapons like flying swords.

Now, Chu Feng’s appearance directly revealed the truth, showing them where the light was.

At this moment, even Chu Feng’s enemies and the related financial groups were excited, feeling their blood surge. This was a rare opportunity.

“Brother Chu is truly a rare genius of his generation. According to some ancient records, domains are the hardest to master, arduous and profound. Most people might study them for decades and still not grasp even the basics.”

“Haha, this is truly unexpected. Brother Chu encountered hardships on his path of evolution, but unexpectedly, he carved out another, even brighter path.”

In just this brief moment, the attitudes of some kings underwent a complete 180-degree shift, becoming extremely enthusiastic and showering him with praise.

Not far away, Jiang Luoshen was skeptical, wondering if this was real. Just a short while ago, when Chu Feng first appeared here, he was scorned by others simply because he was crippled and no longer a peerless expert. But in such a short time, everything had changed again?!

This left Jiang Luoshen startled. After Chu Feng was crippled and remained silent for a period, he had unexpectedly carved out another special path and was once again surrounded by admirers.

A group of kings stepped forward, all trying to curry favor. Their goal was clear: they wanted Chu Feng to help them cultivate divine weapons!

Not far away, the Palace Master of Jade Void Palace’s face twitched slightly. This was truly unexpected; even he hadn’t anticipated that Chu Feng could research domains.

The sea monkey was displeased. It knew Chu Feng was doing this on purpose, using it to demonstrate the power of the domain, which had created such a sensational situation.

At this moment, Kong Sheng and a few others, who had been tossed aside, woke up and immediately flew into a rage. They were even more pathetic, also victims of Chu Feng’s efforts to demonstrate the domain’s power. They were so infuriated that their hearts raged, and they almost fainted from anger again.

At this point, Chu Feng finally spoke again, aiming directly at the Nine-Lives Cat King and taking this opportunity to issue a bounty.

“Everyone, I am a person who repays kindness with kindness and grievances with grievances. Whoever can chop off that cat’s tail for me, I will be responsible for nurturing their future weapons to completion.”

“You’re looking for death!” The Nine-Lives Cat King immediately glared, sweeping a cold gaze over Chu Feng, ready to pounce and kill at any moment.

Even many kings were stunned and very surprised. Some believed that Chu Feng’s bounty was likely meaningless; would anyone be willing to act for it?

However, in the next moment, the kings understood that there were powerful individuals who wanted to cooperate with Chu Feng.

The Dragon Maiden immediately took action. Despite being a woman, she was extremely decisive, because she had deeply understood from the undersea stone carvings how extraordinary domain researchers were. If she could gain the friendship of such a person, it might even be possible to open the True Dragon’s Lair in the East Sea later on!

For the dragon race, that matter was too significant!

The Dragon Maiden’s strength was beyond imagination, shocking to the world. She suddenly struck, sending the Nine-Lives Cat King flying sideways and coughing blood.

“Damn!” A king couldn’t help but curse. Someone responded just as Chu Feng finished speaking? They realized they had underestimated the status of domain researchers; such people were immensely useful!

Next, some financial groups were stirring, itching to move, secretly discussing whether to launch an attack, because they now also had supreme experts who had broken free from the six great shackles, not inferior to anyone!

Golden light surged as the Roc King attacked. His speed, if not the fastest in the world, was among the top three. The legendary Roc in myths could soar ninety thousand miles into the sky.

The Cat King roared in anger. The Roc King’s attack almost wounded it again.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! In the next moment, the Old Monster of Changbai Mountain, the Kongtong Mountain Sect Master, and others also moved, charging forward to kill, while the old grandmaster of Wudang Mountain guarded Chu Feng’s side.

People were stunned; the kings trembled in their hearts. They saw some major powers begin to act, pursuing and killing the Cat King.

Financial groups that had researched ancient evolvers, and top-tier major powers, all understood the value and role of domain researchers. Now, many people were taking action.

What’s going on? Gao Yuan, the young sect master of Bajiquan, was also here. He had no idea about the future influence and role of domain researchers and looked utterly bewildered.

Because he didn't understand: was a crippled person, even if they mastered a certain technique, worth all this?

“You said you’d only use energy at the Awakening realm to compete with me?” At this moment, Chu Feng looked at him.

“So what?!” Gao Yuan replied casually, but the next moment, he knew he was in trouble.

Before Chu Feng could say anything, several figures swiftly appeared and directly attacked Gao Yuan. This was ordered by the Dragon Maiden, because she couldn’t remain calm; she was determined to win over Chu Feng and enlist his help in exploring the True Dragon’s Lair!

People tend to follow blindly. When others saw the Dragon Maiden ordering her people to act and investing so much, king-level experts from the land also launched their attacks.

Bang, bang… Gao Yuan was strong, but was instantly besieged, struck directly by punches, and sent flying sideways, blood trickling from his mouth. He felt… so incredibly wronged!

Chu Feng opened his mouth, wanting to tell them that he truly didn’t intend for them to chase and kill Gao Yuan. It was a misunderstanding.

“Meow!” In the distance, the Nine-Lives Cat King was furious, its eyes spitting fire, and also terrified, because a group of people were attacking, led primarily by the Dragon Maiden and the Golden-Winged Roc.

In an instant, it was severely wounded and almost died.

“Hey, everyone, take it easy,” Chu Feng shouted. “I only want the cat’s tail, don’t kill it.” He still harbored anger, wanting to personally deal with the Nine-Lives Cat King later, and was merely venting some frustration for now.

“Meow, meow, meow…” The Nine-Lives Cat King grew even more furious. What did they take it for?

However, it couldn’t help but be terrified, because Chu Feng’s words were extremely effective.

In a matter of moments, several small sections of its tail were successively severed, with a group of people scrambling to do the deed. It was… simply terrifying!

It wanted to escape but couldn’t, because the Golden-Winged Roc King was too fast, not much slower than Chu Feng at his peak.

Combined with the terrifying Dragon Maiden, its situation was utterly tragic.

A group of people were snatching pieces of the Nine-Lives Cat King’s tail. It was exasperated and almost went mad.

Not far away, the Peacock King broke out in a cold sweat.

As for on the ground, Kong Sheng and the others simply played dead, making themselves faint again.
