When Lin Feng brought Hu Liena and Ye Lingling to the edge of Di Tian and Zhu Zhuqing's battlefield, the scene before them made the two women's hearts shudder slightly.
On the battlefield, Di Tian's figure was as majestic as a mountain, surrounded by an extremely dense fluctuation of divine power. Every move and every form contained the power to destroy the world. And Zhu Zhuqing, although her figure was light and her movements agile, seemed a little outmatched under Di Tian's tide-like offensive.
The so-called "chicken soup" that Di Tian had consumed when he last met with Lin Feng was actually a part of the gift given by heaven and earth after the Divine Realm's ascension to a Divine Star.
The divine power essence contained in that chicken soup was undoubtedly an opportunity for Di Tian.
Therefore, during this period, Di Tian had long since re-ascended to the god-level. At the time of his breakthrough, because of the majestic foundation he had accumulated, he had directly leaped over the Third-Class God level and reached the peak of a Second-Class God.
Although there was still a slight gap compared to his cultivation during his time as the Dragon God's personal guard captain, as long as he went to the Divine Star, his cultivation speed would increase by a great deal.
An important reason was that the spiritual energy of the Douluo Star could no longer support Di Tian's current cultivation realm.
Although the Douluo Star had been transformed by Lin Feng and was also a treasure land for cultivation, it was still too small compared to the Divine Star. Di Tian already felt the bottleneck of improvement here. Only by going to the Divine Star would it be possible to return to his former peak state.
Therefore, Lin Feng was not too surprised that Di Tian could try to open up such a small-scale plane.
After Gu Yuena retrieved the Dragon God's heart, she had taken the remaining dragon race back to the Dragon Tomb once.
And this space before them was more like it was created in the style of the Dragon Tomb, with a slightly desolate plateau, deep chasms at the edges, and even more blurry bone-shaped objects in the distance.
From this space alone, Di Tian had an indescribable sorrow and reminiscence for the tragic history of the dragon race. The scene of this space was also more like a warning to himself.
On the plateau.
Zhu Zhuqing's figure was like a bolt of lightning, swift and sharp. Her martial soul, the Nether Civet, had been completely integrated into her body. Two cat ears were faintly visible among her hair, and a cat's tail swayed gently behind her, adding a bit of mystery and allure to her.
Having not seen her for many years, Zhu Zhuqing had completely grown up. Her figure was incredibly full, especially her chest, which was even more ample and pert.
Like a mature fruit, it exuded a tempting charm.
Her face was also more exquisite, with a heroic spirit between her brows, completely different from the immature young girl of the past.
When she moved, her waist was as soft as if it had no bones. Together with her full front and her rounded, plump hips, it formed a moving curve that made even Lin Feng unable to resist looking a few more times.
Especially the black bodysuit she was currently wearing, which outlined her figure to the fullest. Every inch of her curves seemed to have been enhanced, making her incredibly alluring.
Her every movement was full of power and beauty, as if she had perfectly integrated the agility of the Nether Civet with the gentleness of a woman.
In terms of the hotness of her figure alone, Zhu Zhuqing was definitely one of the top two among the women Lin Feng had seen.
Di Tian stood in the center of the space, his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent. A faint black halo surrounded his body, a shield formed by the external release of his powerful soul power. Although Zhu Zhuqing's attacks came like a storm, they could never break through this layer of defense.
"Zhuqing's speed has increased again." Hu Liena said in a low voice, a trace of admiration flashing in her eyes.
Ye Lingling nodded and responded softly, "Her Nether Civet martial soul has always been known for its speed. Now that the martial soul is completely integrated with herself, her speed has reached the extreme. However, Uncle Di Tian's strength is unfathomable. I'm afraid Zhuqing will need more tempering to break through his defense."
Lin Feng did not speak, just quietly watched the two on the battlefield. He could feel the unyielding will in Zhu Zhuqing's body, as well as her ultimate pursuit of power. This persistence was precisely the reason for her rapid rise in just a few short years.
Bang!
A muffled sound was heard. Zhu Zhuqing's figure was sent back hundreds of meters by a gentle wave of Di Tian's hand, temporarily stopping on the plateau for a moment. Fine beads of sweat had already seeped from her forehead, and her breathing had become rapid, but her eyes were still firm, without a trace of retreat.
"Not bad. Your speed has reached the extreme, but you still lack in the application of power." Di Tian spoke faintly, his tone carrying a hint of praise. "The advantage of the Nether Civet lies in speed and flexibility, but you rely too much on speed and have neglected the condensation of power. If you encounter an opponent of the same level, you may be at a disadvantage."
"Only speed is unbreakable, and nothing is indestructible. Speed at its extreme is the sharpest spear. But, you must learn to condense. A spear also has a sharpest point."
Lin Feng's words suddenly sounded in Zhu Zhuqing's ear. The familiar and steady voice made her stunned for a moment.
In the heat of the battle, this sudden voice was like a warm spring breeze, brushing across her taut heartstrings.
She turned her head and saw Lin Feng standing at the edge of the battlefield, his eyes full of encouragement and expectation. A joyful smile instantly bloomed on Zhu Zhuqing's face. The smile contained both the happiness of seeing Lin Feng and the determination and confidence for the battle.
Teacher Lin Feng... she cried out silently in her heart, the joy and excitement beyond words.
Naturally, she ignored the two people standing beside Lin Feng. In her eyes, she could only see Lin Feng.
When Hu Liena and Ye Lingling saw Zhu Zhuqing's gaze, they both felt a little strange in their hearts. There are two big people standing right here, and you don't even give a signal? As expected, forgetting friends over a crush is a common human trait.
"Revered One." Di Tian sent a telepathic message.
"Mm. No need to hold back. Let some water go. Continue." Lin Feng replied.
Zhu Zhuqing took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and looked at Di Tian again.
"Ninth Soul Skill—Nether Break-Sky Flash!"
Following Zhu Zhuqing's low shout, her body instantly transformed into a flickering afterimage of faint light. Her speed was so fast that it was as if she had crossed the limits of space.
Several clones instantly condensed by her side. Each clone was like a solid entity, emitting the unique faint light of the Nether Civet, as if they had been summoned from the void, carrying a force that could not be ignored.
These clones were not simple illusions, but a physical attack method formed by Zhu Zhuqing after compressing her own soul power to the extreme.
Her main body, along with the clones, were like nine faint lights in the netherworld, instantly weaving into a deadly attack net.
Zhu Zhuqing formed seals with her hands, and the faint light at her fingertips quickly condensed, turning into sharp Nether Claws, shimmering with a heart-palpitating cold light.
The nine faint lights, the main body and the clones, moved in unison, attacking one after another, like nine stars in a line. With an unstoppable momentum, they rushed straight towards Di Tian. The Nether Claws, set against the faint light, looked even more strange and unpredictable, as if they could tear apart all obstacles.
The eight clones attacked the same position on Di Tian's shield first, like eight meteorites crashing down, erupting in a series of roars.
Di Tian's shield rippled under the fierce attack. The black halo trembled violently, but it never broke. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He clearly had not expected Zhu Zhuqing's ninth soul skill to have such power.
The attacks of the main body and the clones were almost seamless. When the Nether Claws once again attacked that spot on the shield, Di Tian's shield could finally no longer maintain its previous calm and emitted an even more violent hum. The black halo was like a wave in a storm, surging turbulently, as if it could be torn apart by this powerful force at any moment.
"Good! That's more like it!" Di Tian shouted, his praise evident in his voice.
However, it was not over yet. The nine faint lights instantly re-converged into one.
Fast!
A faint light of extreme speed suddenly condensed in front of Di Tian. Zhu Zhuqing's figure seemed to have been reborn from the nine afterimages, becoming the one and only absolute existence. At that moment, time seemed to be stretched, and space also trembled. All power, speed, and will were gathered at that one point.
Boom—
A loud bang shook the entire battlefield. Zhu Zhuqing's Nether Break-Sky Flash, which had condensed the power of nine clones, finally had a direct collision with Di Tian's shield at this moment.
A huge energy fluctuation spread out crazily from the two of them as the center, stirring up violent waves of air. Hu Liena and Ye Lingling only felt a powerful force rushing towards them, forcing them to use their soul power to resist.
Under this all-out attack from Zhu Zhuqing, Di Tian's shield finally showed cracks. The black halo was like glass hit by a giant hammer. The cracks spread rapidly and instantly shattered.
"Good!"
Di Tian retreated quickly, unable to help but praise her. To break the shield condensed by a Second-Class God with divine power, while still not yet a god, such strength was truly astonishing.
"It's not over yet, Uncle Di Tian!"
Amidst the swirling dust, Zhu Zhuqing's figure shot out. Like a civet leaping out of the netherworld, her figure was slightly disheveled, but her eyes were even more determined. Her black bodysuit was covered in dust, but it could not hide her hot figure and the fighting aura she exuded.
"Nether Annihilation Slash!"
Zhu Zhuqing roared, and the soul power around her surged as if it had condensed to the extreme at this moment.
Her hands swung out violently in front of her chest. A brilliant slash of faint light instantly cut across the sky, carrying a world-destroying momentum, directly chasing after the rapidly retreating Di Tian.
This slash was more condensed, sharper than the previous attacks, as if all of Zhu Zhuqing's power, speed, and will were condensed in this one strike.
Wherever the slash passed, space seemed to be torn apart. A deep black crack spread across the battlefield, pointing straight at Di Tian's chest.
Di Tian first glanced at Lin Feng. Seeing that he had no intention of intervening, he also decided to let loose.
Dense black scales rapidly condensed on his right hand, forming a huge black dragon claw.
He let out a low roar, like a dragon's roar from ancient times, shaking the entire space.
"Dragon God Claw!"
A claw swung out, but a huge and illusory dragon claw shadow appeared out of thin air beside Zhu Zhuqing, who was still far from him.
The dragon claw shadow, carrying a majestic divine power, suddenly collided with Zhu Zhuqing's Nether Annihilation Slash. The two forces intertwined, erupting in an even more dazzling light, as if the entire battlefield were submerged in this brilliant splendor.
Zhu Zhuqing only felt a huge force coming at her. After resisting for just a few seconds, her body was sent flying backwards. She spat out a mouthful of blood, which stained the black clothes on her chest red.
Zhu Zhuqing's figure was like a kite with a broken string, thrown back fiercely by that huge force. But a cunning glint flashed in her eyes, as if all of this was within her calculations. Her body drew a graceful arc in the air, flying straight in the direction of Lin Feng.
Seeing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by gentleness. With a flash of his figure, he instantly appeared where Zhu Zhuqing was about to fall. He opened his arms and steadily caught her in his arms in a princess carry.
"Are you alright?" Lin Feng asked softly.
Zhu Zhuqing leaned against Lin Feng's chest, her arms unconsciously wrapping around his neck. Her cheek gently pressed against his chest, feeling the familiar aura.
She shook her head slightly, her voice carrying a hint of stubbornness and shyness. "I'm fine, Teacher Lin Feng. I'm just... just a little exhausted for now. I'll be fine after a rest."
She had not yet dispelled her Martial Soul True Body. Her two cat ears trembled slightly due to the joy in her heart, and the tail behind her even swayed gently. It was only after two and a half seconds that she herself noticed and dispelled her Martial Soul True Body. But this series of physical reactions had already been fully seen by everyone present.
Hu Liena and Ye Lingling exchanged a smile at this moment, came to Lin Feng's side, and looked at Zhu Zhuqing being princess-carried by Lin Feng, a teasing look in their eyes.
"Zhuqing, do you need healing? Lingling is right here. Besides, Brother Xiao Feng's healing ability is top-notch." Hu Liena teased, her eyes full of mockery.
"I think Zhuqing can stay in Brother Xiao Feng's arms for a while longer. In just this short while, her vitality has recovered a lot, and her heart has even started to beat faster." Ye Lingling also joined in the teasing. Her tone was gentle, but the smile in her eyes could not be hidden.
Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks became even redder, and she lowered her head.
At such a close distance, Lin Feng couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the origin of the nickname "Big Kitty." Indeed, when this girl stood and looked down, she definitely couldn't see her own feet.
Greedily taking a breath of the scent on Lin Feng, Zhu Zhuqing reluctantly and gently broke free from his embrace.
Her feet touched the ground, but her eyes still looked at Lin Feng with longing, as if at this moment, all her strength and stubbornness had turned into tender affection.
She whispered softly, "Thank you, Teacher Lin Feng..."
Di Tian walked over at this moment. His eyes carried a bit of praise. He looked at Zhu Zhuqing and said softly, "Zhu Zhuqing, your performance today was outstanding. It showed me your growth and progress. To be able to fight me to this extent, you have enough to be proud of."
Zhu Zhuqing responded, "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle Di Tian. I'm still far from it. I will continue to work hard in the future."
"Di Tian, when do you plan to come to the Divine Star?" Lin Feng placed his hand on Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder, sending a gentle soul power into her to help her recover faster, and at the same time asked Di Tian.
"I..." Di Tian seemed to have a lot to say, but after glancing at the expressions of the three women behind Lin Feng, the corner of his mouth twitched violently.
"This subordinate will go in a few days. Since the Revered One has come, why not go to the Lake of Life with them first? I still have some things to deal with here."
"Alright." Lin Feng nodded.
The three women all smiled and nodded at Di Tian.
The corner of Di Tian's mouth twitched again.
