Chapter 221 The True Tribulation
"We have it. And ironically, it is his son that made the pill. I am sure that it will be up to your satisfaction." Go Haizing handed a jade box to the man in front of Liu Feng.
"Ah! I can see the look on his face when I show him his dear son\'s head. He will be too stunned to even fight." the man laughed as he grabbed the pill in the box and tossed it into his mouth without even hesitating.
All of a sudden, Liu Feng could see frost starting to build up on the left side of his face, where there was no skin at all. The ice was forming a makeshift layer.
Soon, his face turned from one of a terrifying sociopath to one who seemed like he was wearing an ice mask.
"Finally. After so long, I can feel some quiet. The sound of those goddamn bugs was deafening. Thank god they are finally gone." the man said and then locked his eyes on Liu Feng.
"You made quite the pill, boy. I should really thank you. But I wonder, how do you feel now that you have given your father\'s enemy something your father also desperately needs?" the man laughed.
Then, he looked at the audience.
"Twenty years ago, I came to this rundown kingdom that you call home. Such rats you all are. This stench so unbearable that I wanted to vomit. But this boy\'s father here dragged me to this hole. And I will make sure you will regret it all. I should get rid of this latrine pit of a kingdom." the man declared and he stepped closer to Liu Feng.
For a moment, Liu Feng could not feel anything at all. His mind went blank.
And then, he saw that his position changed. His arms were not moving, his body felt like it had just gone through a grinder, and he was at the edge of the arena.
With one small punch, that man almost killed Liu Feng. In fact, that punch would be enough to cripple his dantian if it weren\'t for the robe that was protecting him. The robe that was given to him by Min Wan.
Cough!
Liu Feng spit out blood and looked at the slowly approaching man. His heart was filled with terror. This was not an opponent that he could face.
"System, are there any things that I can buy which can teleport me the hell out of here?" he desperately asked.
[No such item available in the shop. Please level up to avail more items.]
"I know that I have to level up, you goddamn- I need the get out of here." Liu Feng stopped himself and started focusing on the situation at hand.
Liu Man was not with him because he did not want the whole world to know that a tiger cub was with Liu Feng. Even if most could not recognize the fact that this was the white tiger, there could be some, and that would only bring trouble.
"I should have known that this would happen." Liu Feng looked past the man and at Go Haizang. Now, Go Haizang no longer had his disguise on. He no longer looked like Master Mu. He was someone else entirely.
With a bald face, and scars all over them, he looked like a classic goon.
"And what is with that ancient blood requirement? I wonder what all that is about." Liu Feng thought back to what had happened a few minutes ago.
"No. I need to think straight. What can I do now." Liu Feng snapped back to reality.
With the system reward, he was now in the eighth layer of the Nascent Soul realm. If he was just in one higher layer, then he could have tried to make himself a suicide bomb by doing the impossible: trying to attempt a tribulation here.
But that would not be possible because he needed to get to the ninth layer to try and break through to the Xiantian Realm.
"Damn it. Wait, system, do you have any items that can increase my cultivation by one layer?" he asked once more, desperately.
The man was nearing him, but the theatrics that he had displayed were slowly delaying Liu Feng\'s own death by a few minutes.
Ping!
[Host has been loaned one fruit of despair by the system on the condition that host completes story quest.]
[Story quest: Survive]
Liu Feng saw this and smiled. In his hand, a fruit and a jade box appeared.
"Haha! I also want to see what you can do by recovering a little bit." the man laughed him off. As someone much stronger than Liu Feng, he did not see Liu Feng as a threat.
"Thank god he is arrogant." Liu Feng did not delay any longer and he gulped the fruit first.
Ping!
[Host has reached peak of Nascent Soul Stage.]
And then, he opened the jade box. The golden brilliance of the pill shone throughout the arena, and everyone could see what he was doing.
"A pity, he thinks that he can use the Xiantian Advancement Pill now." someone sighed.
Even the man sneered. This pill would only work on those in the peak of the Xiantian Stage. Why would it work on someone who was at the seventh layer of the Nascent Soul stage?
"Wait a minute. Why is he in the eighth layer? No! His cultivation increased again. He is at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage? Wait a minute! He will undergo tribulation now? Don\'t you dare-"
The man did not understand what happened, but he knew that Liu Feng suddenly reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
He could not dally any longer. He disappeared and stood in front of Liu Feng holding his neck.
"Spit it out, you son of a bitch!" the man spat out.
"Too late." Liu Feng smiled.
Rumble.
