Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 1337 - 1322: Waiting for His Return

"Nine Thunders Combined, Thunder Dragon Birth!"

Shi Feng's figure shot straight up, chasing after Mang Kui's soul. Meanwhile, the Bloodthirsty Thunder Sword in his hand stabbed towards the sky.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of thunderclaps exploded from within Shi Feng, waves of violent thunder wildly erupted from him, and in the blink of an eye, Shi Feng transformed into an enormous dark black Thunder Dragon. Faintly, the roar of a dragon resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

The enormous dark Thunder Dragon soared upwards at an even greater speed, as if a dragon soared through the Nine Heavens.

"This is..." Originally fleeing rapidly, Mang Kui suddenly sensed the energy fluctuations from below and looked down, staring blankly at the rapidly rising giant dark Thunder Dragon.

"This... this really is the power unleashed by a Four-star Half God Realm Martial Artist? This... oh no!" The swift charge of the dark giant dragon instantly caught up with the fleeing soul of Mang Kui and opened its maw to swallow him whole.

"Ah! No! Don't destroy me! Ah! I am willing to be your servant, to recognize you as master." From within the dark giant dragon came Mang Kui's hoarse, elderly, and extremely panicked voice of pleading.

But then, Shi Feng's cold voice followed: "No need, old thing, you can die now!"

"Ah! No!" A scream echoed through the heavens and earth, then abruptly ceased.

The massive dark Thunder Dragon quivered, then dispersed, and chaotic thunder scattered. Shi Feng's blood-red figure reappeared, but Mang Kui's soul body had already been shattered under the power of the dark Thunder Dragon, and was subsequently devoured by Shi Feng.

Devouring a soul of a Six-star Demigod Realm, Shi Feng's recently attained One-star Demigod Realm soul power instantly reached Great Perfection!

Since the last time Jiangg Ning imparted his soul insight experience, and coupled with Shi Feng's own soul power also reaching the One-star Demigod Realm, Shi Feng's understanding of the soul no longer left him completely clueless.

"I never expected to encounter a Six-star Demigod Realm evil spirit this time. It's an unexpected gain. Next time, I'll find another opportunity to reflect on this Soul Dao under the Flame Tree," Shi Feng murmured to himself.

Afterward, Shi Feng slowly turned around, gazing toward the south where the Mysterious Light Giant Tower was located, and softly mumbled:

"The commotion there has already stopped. Could the Four Symbols Great Formation have already broken that mysterious force?"

Saying this, Shi Feng's figure flickered again, swiftly flashing southward.

...

In front of the Mysterious Light Giant Tower, the power of the Four Symbols indeed had disappeared. Under the incomparably powerful Four Symbols Great Formation, that mysterious force had been broken!

With the mysterious force broken, finally, at the lowest level of the Mysterious Light Giant Tower, a Mysterious Light Gate appeared. It seemed that this gate was the entrance to the Mysterious Light Giant Tower.

Apart from the Mysterious Light Gate, all the other levels remained tightly sealed and impermeable! Even without that mysterious force blocking it, there was simply no other accessible entry.

However, given the material strength of the Mysterious Light Giant Tower, even the combined efforts of the Four Symbols Fierce Beasts couldn't break through it by force.

It seems that to enter the Mysterious Light Giant Tower, one can only pass through the first layer's Mysterious Light Gate.

But at this moment, the Four Symbols Fierce Beasts stood side by side in front of the Mysterious Light Gate, blocking the entrance. The ferocious and sinister Four Symbols Fierce Beasts seemed determined not to let anyone in.

The master of the Four Symbols Fierce Beasts, Jiangg Ning, stood proudly atop the bronze chariot behind the four beasts.

At this time, several figures also landed on the ground, standing in front of the Four Symbols Fierce Beasts, and the crowd began to speak to Jiangg Ning, saying:

"Master Jiangg, now that the entrance has appeared, please enter quickly. Once you go in, we'll be able to follow!"

"Yes, yes! Master Jiangg, please hurry up and enter. If you don't go in, then let us through, don't block us."

Faced with the noisy voices, Jiangg Ning's face was cold. She coldly spoke: "I've already said, we'll enter once Shi Feng returns. Whether you go in or leave afterward is up to you."

As soon as Jiangg Ning finished speaking, someone quickly said: "But... Shi Feng has already left. Who knows when he'll come back or if he will even return at all?"

"Exactly! This Mysterious Light Sacred Land is fraught with danger. Who knows if Shi Feng might encounter some peril and not make it back? Do you mean that if Shi Feng never comes back, we should never go in?"

Hearing those words, Jiangg Ning spoke coldly again: "If Shi Feng doesn't come back, then you'll have to wait here!" At this moment, Jiangg Ning's tone was cold and domineering, as if everyone had to heed her wishes.

"This... isn't this just wasting our time!"

"Exactly! The Mysterious Light Sacred Land is full of peril. The longer we stay, the more danger we encounter! I planned to leave as soon as I entered the Mysterious Light Giant Tower, and now..."

"Isn't this somewhat selfish? If you want to wait, then go ahead, but let us pass through the Mysterious Light Gate."

"Yes, if you want to waste time, then do it yourself. Don't waste ours."

For a moment, the crowd began to discuss with dissatisfaction.

Listening to the constant chatter, Jiangg Ning frowned with displeasure. She coldly demanded, "Without me, Jiangg Ning, operating the Four Symbols Great Formation, could you have broken through that mysterious force? Without me, would this Mysterious Light Gate even appear?"

"This... that's a completely different matter!" someone said.

"Indeed, perhaps if we all joined forces, we would have eventually broken that mysterious force."

"Nothing is absolute after all!"

"Yes, without you, we might have already entered the Mysterious Light Giant Tower."

Once again, the voices of disagreement rose.

Hearing these voices, Jiangg Ning felt it was unnecessary to continue arguing with them. Without her, that mysterious force, so formidable, wouldn't have been broken even with everyone combined.

Jiangg Ning sharply addressed the crowd once more: "I'll say it again, until Shi Feng returns, none of you shall think about entering. Speak more, and don't blame me for deploying the Four Symbols Great Formation!"

"Speak more, and don't blame me for deploying the Four Symbols Great Formation!"

...

Jiangg Ning's cold, murderous voice echoed through the land.

With Jiangg Ning's words reverberating, the previously noisy crowd instantly fell silent.

Having heard Jiangg Ning's words, who would dare make a sound? The Jiangg Family's Four Symbols Great Formation was certainly no joke.

At this moment, despite their dissatisfaction, people had no choice but to swallow their grievances!

After saying those words, Jiangg Ning no longer paid attention to anyone. She slightly turned her head towards the direction Shi Feng had left, waiting for the return of that blood-stained figure.
