Chapter 1390: Who On Earth Is He

Something was off.

Something was really off!

An ordinary human cultivator absolutely could not withstand a palm strike imbued with ancient power, especially when he had used two-tenths of his strength. Even a human cultivator at the Nirvana stage of the Ancient Realm would be severely injured!

Yet, this person was completely unharmed?!

Looking at everything before him, Long Tian, who was usually deep and calculating, couldn't hide the shock in his heart. His expression visibly turned serious, and his pupils trembled slightly.

In just a few moments, he had realized the truth.

This Yi Feng was definitely not some insignificant ant. He was at least a cultivator at the Great Perfection stage of the Heavenly Transformation level of the Ancient Realm. To be able to so easily block that palm strike, even if it was with the help of some treasure, he was fully qualified to fight against him!

Instantly!

Long Tian's heart shook violently, and his breathing became heavy.

He truly hadn't expected that there would be such a master in Yunxing. He couldn't help but start to take Yi Feng seriously, his mind filled with countless doubts and suspicions.

If this person was the Lord of Yunxing?

But he didn't have the aura of a Star Lord, the power of the stars blessed by the heavens. He didn't have the imposing presence a Star Lord should have.

If he wasn't the Star Lord...

Then why did he have such cultivation? Why did he suddenly appear and want to fight him? Just who on earth was this person?

All sorts of doubts flooded his mind.

After just one move, he still couldn't gauge the depth of his opponent. Acting rashly wasn't wise. Long Tian could only watch warily, feeling a bit of pressure for the first time.

On the other side.

Seeing this silent stance, Yi Feng grew even more anxious.

He called out again, his words becoming more urgent.

"Lord Star Lord, you must not be serious, right?"

"We agreed to spar. If you don't take it seriously and only use such a weak move, I won't acknowledge your strength. No matter what, I won't kneel!"

Hearing this, Long Tian's brows furrowed slightly.

Arrogant!

This person was truly arrogant!

But he had to admit, he did have some capital to be arrogant. To dare to challenge him so boldly, he was definitely no ordinary person.

If they were to fight, he would have to go all out. But right now, his opponent had no openings. There was no way to strike. Acting rashly would likely expose his own weaknesses, putting him at a disadvantage before the fight even began. This was definitely not a wise move!

With the heavy responsibility of the Demon Clan on his shoulders, he couldn't afford any mistakes!

Facing this sudden, unfamiliar powerhouse, Long Tian felt increasingly troubled.

The situation suddenly became tense, and the atmosphere grew delicate.

In the distance.

Wei Donghai, who had been watching the entire time, had a look of realization in his eyes.

As the saying goes, those involved are confused, while the onlookers see clearly.

He saw much more clearly than Yi Feng!

The Star Lord had shown mercy out of consideration for his status and face, which was why Yi Feng wasn't injured. But Yi Feng hadn't realized this kindness, which was really not right.

Even though the Star Lord was broad-minded, being repeatedly disrespectful was going too far. What if he angered the Lord? What would happen then?

Although Yi Feng's cultivation was strong, he was still a bit naive when it came to human relations!

To ease the tension, Wei Donghai quickly clasped his fists and shouted through a voice transmission.

"Brother Yi!"

"Lord Star Lord is of such high status, how could he really attack you? The Lord has shown you mercy time and again. Being able to block one of the Star Lord's probing strikes is already something to be proud of. You must not push your luck and offend him repeatedly!"

These words were quite tactful, giving both sides a way out.

Under normal circumstances.

After such words, the two sides would surely stop. It was common to take the opportunity to back down, and the two might even become friends, enacting a scene of "no discord, no concord."

In the path of cultivation, human relations were the true way. Having one more friend was always better than having one more enemy.

But at this moment.

Long Tian found these words quite grating!

That palm strike earlier had been a killing move, filled with the intent to kill, and even imbued with ancient power. If he hadn't underestimated Yi Feng at first, thinking he was just a small fry at the Heavenly Rank, he might have even added demonic techniques to it.

Ensuring absolute success was Long Tian's style.

Facing a mere Yi Feng, he had used a move powerful enough to kill an ordinary Ancient Realm cultivator, showing how cautious he was. Moreover, he had to precisely control it to not reveal any killing intent, which took an unimaginable amount of effort!

He had thought for sure that Yi Feng would be turned to dust, but instead, the other party was completely unharmed.

Long Tian was already feeling quite upset.

In addition to his shock, he also felt that the situation was not good. He wished he could immediately kill this unfamiliar Yi Feng on the spot to avoid affecting the bigger picture. If not for the lack of opportunity, he would have already made his move!

After putting in so much effort, and then being told that it was just a probing strike?

Wasn't this adding insult to injury?

You make it sound so easy!

If you have the ability, why don't you try probing him yourself?!

Hearing Wei Donghai's flattering words, Long Tian was filled with anger but had no way to vent it.

What was even more infuriating was that his efforts were being described as mercy in Wei Donghai's mouth?

Failing to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys was one thing, and having his move fail was something he could endure...

These were just momentary lapses. Once he regrouped, he would surely regain his dignity!

But now, after hearing these unintentionally insulting words, which were more piercing than anything else, Long Tian was almost unable to maintain his composure. He felt utterly humiliated, and veins began to bulge on his forehead!

If the various Demon Clan members had been here to witness the entire scene, he might have lost his cool on the spot.

But considering his current identity and the need to continue acting out this charade, Long Tian had no choice but to suppress his anger and stand stiffly, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably!

But Wei Donghai had no idea about any of this. Thinking that the Star Lord was getting angry, he quickly continued to smooth things over from a distance.

"Brother Yi, as cultivators, we should have self-awareness and a sense of reverence. How can a firefly compare to the brilliance of the moon? Let's just call it quits on this match!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Long Tian's fair face turned even darker!

His one move hadn't been able to gauge his opponent's depth, and now hearing these words, he couldn't help but feel that there was some hidden meaning in them!

A firefly and the brilliance of the moon?

Damn it!

A mere Saint, who are you calling a firefly?!

At this point, the killing intent in Long Tian's eyes was almost impossible to suppress!

Finally, Yi Feng also reacted.

As expected.

This Star Lord really was too embarrassed to attack. After all, he was the strongest in the galaxy, and he had to consider his reputation.

It seemed that only by attacking first could he force the Star Lord to use his true strength in battle. Otherwise, this best opportunity to seek death would surely be wasted.

After pondering for a few moments.

Yi Feng nodded slightly, murmuring to himself.

"For the sake of seeking death, I have no choice but to offend!"

After making up his mind.

Yi Feng's eyes shone with starlight, and his right hand clenched into a fist as he took a stance, throwing a straightforward punch directly at Long Tian!

The punch looked very ordinary, not particularly fast, and definitely not some sneaky, underhanded move. It was just a simple, open challenge.

There was no grand display, no celestial phenomena. The movement looked very similar to the palm strike from before.

However.

When that punch was thrown!

Long Tian, who was already fuming, suddenly felt a gale-like pressure rushing towards him. His heart inexplicably turned cold, and a chill ran down his back!

He snapped back to attention.

Looking ahead, his pupils shook violently in shock!

The originally ordinary fist image was actually radiating a terrifying aura that he had never seen before. The phantom of the fist seemed to absorb the power of heaven and earth, as if it had come to life, expanding hundreds of times in size.

In the blink of an eye.

The phantom of the fist had grown to the size of the heavens and the earth, like a blazing sun falling from the sky!
