The King of the Gods
Chapter 187: The Sea of Wine
The egg was the size of a fist and it was a dull grey color. The shell had a carving on it that looked simple yet deep at the same time.
Zhao Feng held a gray egg and he felt it was just a stone with no life in it. However, if he calmed down and looked at it with his left eye, it was like he was holding a beating heart.
After examining it for a while, Zhao Feng still knew nothing.
He first put in a bit of his True Strength, but there was no answer. Zhao Feng realized that egg shells had a strong resistance to True Force.
He suddenly recalled that in some ancient records, it was said that one could use their blood to sign the covenant.
However, this is just a – rumor Zhao Feng doesn't know how to do.
He stopped for a second. Then, he bit his finger and sprayed a few drops of his blood onto his shell.
The egg was still motionless, but Zhao Feng felt that his blood made the carving on the egg even more beautiful.
Improving his eyesight several hundredfold, Zhao Feng caught faint signs of the responding egg.
"Is my blood that rubbish?"
Zhao Feng could clearly see that only one-thousandth of his blood was being absorbed by the egg shell.
Then, he had a flash of insight and decided to give it a try with the strength of his bloodline.
According to the Blood Corpse Protector, Zhao Feng had an ancient bloodline that even made the adherents of the Red Moon Religion wary. This time, Zhao Feng carefully dropped a stream of faint blue blood that was as thin as a rope onto an egg.
It came in without a fight.
Zhao Feng was overjoyed!
However, the next moment, his expression changed dramatically.
Wu~ Weng~~~~
The faint blue blood within him was being sucked out - it seemed to enter a bottomless pit.
Grey eggs are like a newborn baby in desperate need of nutrients.
In just two short breaths, over half of the bloodline strength within Zhao Feng had been sucked out, making him feel weak after losing so much bloodline power.
"Stop! Stop!”
Zhao Feng circulated his left eye, and the blue abyss in the dimension of his left eye spun.
The power of his bloodline came from his left eye and after all it was controlled by him. Zhao Feng forcefully broke off the relationship with the egg.
Hu!
Zhao Feng easily sat on the ground with a pale face. His mental energy is low as well.
Even though he had broken his ties, over half of the blue blood was still sucked into the gray egg.
The carvings on the eggs had bloodlines flowing through them, looking beautiful and sinister.
Peh Peh's! Peh Peh's!
Zhao Feng heard a heartbeat emerge from within the egg like new life was being created.
After a long wait, the gray egg stopped moving. The only thing that changed was his life aura becoming stronger.
Zhao Feng sat cross-legged on the ground and he gulped down a lot of Spiritual wine as well as ate some treasures. He was immediately overwhelmed with a hot feeling.
… He has paid a heavy price to recover the strength of his bloodline.
"There are still five days until the trial difficulty becomes much more difficult."
Zhao Feng felt that time was running out.
According to what had happened, the difficulty would level up another level every ten days.
Zhao Feng had spent five days to get the egg, leaving him five days to prepare.
However, the recovery of his bloodline strength was slower than the wheat he had imagined.
Even though he had eaten a lot of treasures and his True Strength bulged until his cultivation reached the peak of the 3rd Sky, the recovery of his bloodline strength was still slow.
As he recovered, Zhao Feng did not notice the ring beside him.
Blood carvings on the gray eggshells faded and small cracks that could not be seen with the naked eye appeared.
Under normal circumstances, this change would not escape Zhao Fengs sight. But the latter focused on restoring the strength of his lineage and not on examining the gray eggs.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
Zhao Fengs mental energy had reached its peak again and his bloodline strength had mostly recovered.
"There are still two more days until the start of a new pursuit."
Zhao Feng inserted a gray egg into his interspatial bracelet and did not notice the mini crack on the surface of the gray egg.
The most important thing to do right now is to prepare for the next chase.
Four hours later.
Zhao Feng arrived at the origin of the Ice Snake Dragon River - a frozen pond.
The wind near the pond froze like a cold blade.
Zhao Feng came this time to see if the frozen pond could handle another black metal monster or not.
After a while, Zhao Feng shook his head – the result was the same as last time.
The area where those mysterious blue crystal tears had been occupied by the first two black metal monsters.
If he used the teardrops again, his temperature would reach a point where even those in the 4th and 5th Heavens of the Ascended Realm would find it hard to resist.
The same plan cannot be used.
"I have to think of another plan." Zhao Feng muttered.
He immediately recalled Beast King Yao in the tall tower forest.
“King Beast Yao in the high tower forest should be able to fight the black metal monster, and with my ice arrow, we can kill that monster, but it will be dangerous.”.
Zhao Feng entered the forest, but after searching for hours, he was still unable to find Beast King Yao.
Somewhere in the forest, Zhao Feng saw a charred hole in the ground; it seemed like a great battle had taken place here.
Zhao Feng once again denied this plan.
He decisively left the tall tower forest and arrived near the sea of wine.
The sea of wine was also a forbidden zone in the Sky Boundary Island.
Zhao Feng almost lost his life the last time he was here.
“If I see correctly, there is “Vine King” in the middle of the Vine Ocean and it has incredible power. It seems to be one with the entire ocean. ”
Zhao Feng stood far away and gave this conclusion after checking for a long time.
If he was right, the entire sea of wine was only part of the "Wine King" itself.
If so, then this area was definitely one of the most frightening existences.
The reason he said 'one' was because Zhao Feng had seen an even more terrifying creature.
When he had first scouted the Sky Boundary Island, Zhao Feng had discovered a mountain. That huge mountain was actually a "Mountain Monster" who was sleeping soundly.
Zhao Feng couldn't even predict how powerful it was, but from its deep aura, it seemed like it could kill those in the True Spirit Realm as easily as stepping on an ant.
Until the worst became the worst, Zhao Feng did not want to offend the "Mountain Monster".
Therefore, he chose a sea of wine instead. He had been here once before and was a little familiar.
For the next day, Zhao Feng scanned the area near the sea of wine with his left eye.
At this moment, there were only two people left in the entire Sky Boundary Island: Zhao Feng and Bei Moi.
Zhao Feng's left eye looked at the latter many times from afar, but Bei Moi focused on escaping and not finding Zhao Feng.
“This guy's luck is too good…. He was wearing a unique shirt and had that pumpkin..”.
Zhao Feng clicked his tongue.
Bei Moi could withstand chasing two black metal monsters until here.
Time passed quickly and the third chase was about to begin.
Both Zhao Feng and Bei Moi had made their preparations.
On the thirty-eight day of the trial.
Whong! Whong!
A flashing white door appeared on Zhao Feng's left and right at the same time, and from there, there was a blurry figure that emitted a terrifying aura.
"What's!? There is more than one!”
Zhao Feng sensed two deadly auras.
Two black metal monsters then appeared ten yards to his left and right.
Run on!
Zhao Feng used his bloodline strength, becoming a transparent figure that flew towards a place above the sea of wine.
The battle plan had been simulated thousands of times in Zhao Fengs mind to accommodate any changes.
The only difference was that there were two black metal monsters, not this one time.
Sou--- Sou-
Two black metal monsters flapped their wings and attacked Zhao Feng.
Zhao Fengs blue hair flew in the wind as he inspected the sea of wine below. His figure became a fish that swam through the cracks and would sometimes use the strength of his bloodline and use the 'Burning Wind Stance' to destroy parts of the vines to make way for him.
When Zhao Feng staked out the Boundary Sky Island earlier, he realized that these vines had little resistance to his Wind Lightning Palm.
It was a 'Burning Wind Stance' that could fight against these vines.
Zhao Feng used his illusory fish movement skill to the maximum and, using his left eye to scan the surroundings, had obtained relative safety.
However, the two black metal monsters that were chasing him were both large in stature and neither agile nor as fast as Zhao Feng.
The two black metal monsters were immediately enveloped by boundless vines, but since they were in the True Spirit Realm, their attacks instantly destroyed hundreds and thousands of vines.
Zhao Feng did not expect normal vines to hold back monsters in the True Spirit Realm.
The goal was to pull the black metal monster into the middle and the plan went quickly.
The black metal monster fell into the middle area of the sea of wine.
Beng - Sou - Sou
Zhao Feng took out his Luohou Bow and fired three or four ice arrows near the two monsters.
The black metal monsters were not injured by the ice arrows, but they caused their bodies to stiffen slightly at a critical point.
Beng! Pa! Pa…..
From the middle of the sea of vines came whistling sounds and dozens of dark green vines as thick as buckets were shuffled in the air.
“Wuu..”.
Zhao Feng felt that the entire sea of wine was a living being. Every one of the ten vines possessed strength comparable to the True Spirit Realm.
Fortunately, he had planned his retreat beforehand, and in fact, the Vine Kings attack was only aimed at the black metal monsters that posed a threat to him.
When Zhao Feng had retreated half a mile away, the two black metal monsters had been engulfed by a sea of wine and could not be seen.
Hu~
Zhao Feng let out a long and relieved breath.
Yet.
Before he could calm down, he felt something snare at his left wrist.
What's that!
Zhao Feng jumped in fear as cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Glancing, the movement seemed to have originated from within his interspatial bracelet….
