Chapter 1255 – Ancient God in One Step

The seventh Divine Stage was the symbol of an Ancient God!

At this moment, the nearby sky was roiling and churning while the earth rumbled and groaned as if in response to Zhao Feng’s agitation.

“Can it succeed?”

Zhao Feng took in a deep breath, the anticipation in his mind replaced with concern and worry.

The most his resources could allow him to reach was Rank Six. Could this seventh Divine Stage successfully be formed?

Of course, he couldn’t interfere even if he wanted to.

“The God Eye’s transformation still isn’t over….” Zhao Feng softly muttered.

At this moment, his soul was fused with the world. It could control everything within a range of more than one million li, and this range was still increasing.

…

The seventh Divine Stage began to form in the Ancient Dream Realm. In the Spiritual Race, around Zhao Feng’s palace, that God energy was so clear thateveryone could now sense it.

“He’s still breaking through!”

“It’s not over yet?”

Mighty waves were raging in everyone’s mind. This was simply too absurd!

“Why are there no phenomena?” Zhang Yutong’s gaze was extremely gloomy as he felt an ill foreboding in his heart.

“I just knew that Brother Feng wouldn’t fail.” In the distance, Zhao Yufei was crying tears of joy.

In the sky, the Spiritual Race Ancient Gods were rather stunned.

“This kid is still breaking through into the Heavenly Divine Realm, and yet there are no phenomena? The dimension he’s in has this kind of ability?” the black-robed Ancient God questioned. Even he was a little interested in Zhao Feng’s mysterious dimension.

“I’d really like to see just what’s happening in that kid’s dimension!” A different Ancient God was also extremely curious.

“I hope you don’t disappoint me….” A faint smile emerged on Ancient God Floating Spirit’s face.

He still supported Zhao Yufei and Zhao Feng being together. After all, while other partners might bring more benefit to the Spiritual Race, none of them could bring happiness to Zhao Yufei.

…

Several days later, in the Ancient Dream Realm, through the mysterious strength of the dreamy mist, the image of the seventh Divine Stage barely managed to stabilize.

“The Divine Stage just barely managed to succeed in creating its structure…!” Zhao Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

 Whoosh!

Suddenly a part of the dreamy mist flowed into the seventh Divine Stage. This dreamy mist transformed into energy that would fill the Divine Stage – the same kind of energy used for the previous six Divine Stages.

“Oh, that’s right; my God Eye energy also counts as part of my potential!” Zhao Feng’s mind was given a jolt of surprise.

What was even more surprising was that this Divine Stage formed from his God Eye energy had exactly the same qualities as the other six Divine Stages; it contained Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Divine Power, bloodline energy, life energy, physical energy, and all the other kinds.

Time moved forward. The seventh Divine Stage gradually solidified and began to gleam with a dazzling light.

“Seven Divine Stages… Ancient God!”

It was impossible to describe the mood Zhao Feng was currently in. Reaching Rank Six of the Heavenly Divine Realm in a single step was already enough to create a legend, but becoming an Ancient God was simply unheard of!

 Whoosh! Whoosh!

The five-colored Yuan Qi whirlpool continued to expand and madly spin. At the same time, the range that Zhao Feng’s soul could control was also expanding.

Zhao Feng felt a strange response from his soul. The Ancient Dream Realm was his body, and somewhere in it, his heart was fiercely trembling.

 Kabooom!

A massive howl suddenly came from the black forest. The images of the seven Divine Stages floated in the air, shining in their transparent and crystalline brilliance as the most striking existences in this world.

Zhao Feng’s mind was completely focused on the seventh Divine Stage.

“The seventh Divine Stage is complete, but it’s more unstable than the previous six!”

The higher a Divine Stage, the more difficult it was to form it. Even with the help of the God’s Spiritual Eye, barely managing to form the seventh Divine Stage was already an incredible feat.

Now, Zhao Feng would have to rely on himself to stabilize this Divine Stage so he could continue on to even higher ranks.

 Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Yuan Qi whirlpool and Divine Stage images slowly began to disperse.

Zhao Feng’s eyes fell upon his own body. His hair and left eye were still that dazzling dream-like silver.

“The left eye’s transformation is nearly over!”

Zhao Feng could sense the progress.

 Buzz! Bzzz!

HIs dazzling and enchanting left eye was slowly turning. The dreamy mist around his body was slowly retracting back into the left eye. The moment all the dreamy mist was absorbed back into the left eye, his silver left eye stopped moving.

 Swish!

Zhao Feng’s soul flew right back into his body. Countless pieces of information immediately barraged his mind.

“Seven Divine Stages!”

Zhao Feng clenched his fists, his body feeling like it had become an ancient giant, bursting with endless power and strength and feeling like it could swallow up the stars.

“This is the power of seven Divine Stages?”

 Swish!

Restraining his excitement, Zhao Feng sent his mind into the left eye’s dimension. The mysterious golden ball had now completely transformed into a small sphere of dream-like silver. Several dazzling lines had drawn out a simple eye on this ball.

“What’s so special about this dream-like silver God’s Spiritual Eye?”

As Zhao Feng began to think, his hair began to dance on its own, rippling with various colors.

Just when he was going to further inspect the God’s Spiritual Eye, he suddenly sensed something.

“Mm? True God Lightning Tribulation?” Zhao Feng’s expression shifted.

The formation of seven Divine Stages and the strange transformation of the God’s Spiritual Eye had made him momentarily forget about the terrifying lightning tribulation.

“But I suppose I should call it Ancient God Lightning Tribulation now, right?” Zhao Feng chuckled to himself.

 Whoosh!

Zhao Feng drew a wisp of Divine Power from the Divine Stage. This single wisp of Divine Power was many times stronger than his Five Elements Tribulation Lightning Divine Power.

 Swish!

By fusing various Intent energies into it, this Divine Power was further strengthened.

“Let me see what this Ancient God Lightning Tribulation is all about!” Zhao Feng looked up to the sky and whistled.

 Brrrooom!

A few moments later, dark clouds crackling with lightning covered the sky. This terrifying and oppressive aura made all living creatures in a radius of tens of thousands of li flee for their lives.

 Boom! Crack!

The lightning in the dark clouds was intensifying, roaring and thundering like ancient lightning dragons.

“What powerful Tribulation Lightning energy!” Zhao Feng’s heart trembled.

If this was an ordinary True God Lightning Tribulation, he could successfully pass it by just closing his eyes and doing nothing. However, this Tribulation Lightning possessed astounding power. Even as a Quasi-Ancient God, he needed to commit all his power to resist it.

As long as he could endure this God Tribulation, he would become an Ancient God in both name and reality!

 Brrrooom!

A huge lightning dragon suddenly rumbled out of the clouds, countless tiny arcs of electricity emerging from its head like it was breathing out a lightning mist.

“Sacred Lightning Body!”

Zhao Feng’s body was immediately covered in layers of five-colored lightning that made him seem like a ball of electricity, dazzling and full of energy.

 Boom! Bang!

The enormous lightning bolt struck Zhao Feng.

This bolt of Tribulation Lightning alone was enough to heavily wound a Rank Six True God and instantly obliterate a Rank Five True God. Fortunately, Zhao Feng was absolutely confident in the ability of his Sacred Lightning Body and Lightning Soul Body to resist this Tribulation Lightning.

Zhao Feng had chosen this forest to counter lightning, but the surrounding terrain was instantly blasted into ash.

His body floated motionless in the air like a mountain of lightning. There was even a point where Zhao Feng’s body managed to absorb some of the Tribulation Lightning energy. His soul also absorbed some of this power.

“This is an impressive tempering effect!”

Zhao Feng discovered that both his soul and body had been tempered after being struck by lightning. This effect was many times the effect he received from using the Tribulation Lightning God Crystals.

Because he had reached the Ancient God level in a single step, Zhao Feng’s cultivation was extremely unstable. There were many aspects in which he had still not reached the Ancient God standard. However, this Tribulation Lightning was helping him temper and solidify these aspects.

Meanwhile, the low-quality God Crystal vein underground had already been drained of energy. But now, with Zhao Feng as the intermediary, the Tribulation Lightning energy was being poured into this God Crystal vein.

He had planned out everything before making his breakthrough into the Heavenly Divine Realm. This Tribulation Lightning needed to be stored away and used well.

 Brrrooom!

The heavens rumbled with thunder and seethed with lightning. The second bolt of Tribulation Lightning instantly descended, even stronger and more terrifying than the first! Everything around Zhao Feng was immediately evaporated.

Then came the third, the fourth… each one stronger than the last!

Zhao Feng’s body was already shattered and scorched black. Fortunately, he had an inextinguishable constitution. His recovery abilities were also extremely powerful, such that they were barely able to keep up with the damage being done.

 Swish!

Zhao Feng put on the Spacetime Robe. The Spacetime Robe was a supreme-quality divine artifact, so it wouldn’t be destroyed by the Tribulation Lightning, and its defensive attributes could reduce the explosive power of the Tribulation Lightning.

Wearing the Spacetime Robe and circulating his Divine Power, Zhao Feng once more clashed with these ancient lightning dragons.

…

Half a day later, the rumbling began to fade. The dark clouds scattered, leaving the sky clear and bright. Down below, a burned body with every inch of its body blasted and torn gave off black smoke as it lay within a massive and scorched pit.

Ten-some days later, Zhao Feng finally finished recovering from his wounds. Through the baptism of the Tribulation Lightning, his body had been remolded and his cultivation level stabilized.

“Rank Seven Ancient God…!” As Zhao Feng stood up, his heart was bursting with joy and excitement.

It took a long time for him to calm down.

Put simply, a tree that stood out from a forest would be the first to be blown down by the wind. Directly attaining Rank Five True God would make him famous throughout the Ziling Zone, Rank Six True God would be a miracle, but Rank Seven Ancient God would give the world far too much of a shock. If he made this known, he might end up facing a disaster, not a blessing.

 Whoosh! Whoosh!

Zhao Feng’s aura slowly began to weaken into an extremely ordinary state. At the same time, Zhao Feng also took out several God Sealing Stones, using their Sealing Intent to suppress the Divine Stages over his dantian.

Gradually, Zhao Feng managed to even more perfectly conceal his energy.

…

In the Spiritual Race, the crowd was still gathered around Zhao Feng’s palace. In truth, even more people were now thronged around it.

“He’s still not coming out?”

“Just what’s happened with that kid?”

The disciples were all extremely curious. The events of Zhao Feng’s breakthrough into the Heavenly Divine Realm were far too unusual.

“That God energy disappeared a long time ago, but that kid still hasn’t come out!” Zhang Yutong’s expression was wavering and uncertain.

In the sky, the Spiritual Race Ancient Gods were also losing their patience.

“What if we go in and force that kid out?” the black-robed Ancient God proposed.

He was far too curious about Zhao Feng’s high-level dimension.

He had barely spoken when he sensed a spatial ripple from the palace.

 Thump!

The palace gates flew open.

“So noisy!” Zhao Feng glanced at the pile of letters of challenge, scanned the countless people gathered around the palace, and then faintly smiled.
