Chapter 272 Encountering an Ambushe on the Way to the Primordial Continent
After leaving the Primordial World, Ling Feng went to the Immortal Slayer World and the Heavenly Dragon World, even though only two years had passed in those two worlds.
However, there is a difference in the flow of time between the two worlds; millions of years have already passed in the primordial world.
In the years since he left, the primordial world has undergone earth-shattering changes.
The once rampant calamity of ferocious beasts has long become a distant historical memory, but its impact has been profound and lasting.
With the end of the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans gradually emerged, demonstrating their formidable strength and ambition.
After a long period of development and accumulation, these three races have become the new dominant forces in the prehistoric world.
The leaders of the three clans were all exceptionally talented individuals who, through their outstanding cultivation aptitude and tireless efforts, all reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
However, at this time they also fell into a bottleneck in their cultivation, and no matter how hard they tried, they could hardly make any further progress.
Just as they were feeling confused and anxious about this, a mysterious message reached their ears:
To break free from these shackles and achieve a breakthrough in cultivation, one must gather the collective fortune of the entire prehistoric continent.
Such temptations are undoubtedly irresistible to the three clan leaders who yearn for greater power.
Thus, a battle for the primordial destiny quietly began.
The dragons were the first to rise to power, and with their innate advantage in the water, they quickly conquered and ruled the vast ocean.
At the same time, the Phoenix Clan and the Qilin Clan were not to be outdone, and the two engaged in fierce competition on the land. In the end, they were evenly matched and each occupied half of the prehistoric continent.
Although the three races have initially divided their spheres of influence, only a few million years have passed since the Great Calamity of the Ferocious Beasts.
The bloody and cruel catastrophe was still vivid in their minds, leaving the three clan leaders with lingering fear.
Therefore, although they have the ambition to dominate, they dare not act too arrogantly and recklessly, lest they repeat the same mistakes.
Thus, the three races maintained a delicate balance through mutual checks and balances.
But how long can this fragile peace last?
Perhaps just a spark could ignite a massive, primordial war.
Ling Feng had no idea that so many twists and turns would occur on the prehistoric continent after he left.
On that day, after leaving Penglai Immortal Island, Ling Feng sped off towards the vast and boundless prehistoric continent without stopping.
Because he only wanted to travel safely and avoid unnecessary entanglements and disputes, he acted very carefully along the way, trying his best to conceal his whereabouts and avoid attracting the attention of others.
However, as the saying goes, "the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease," even though Ling Feng was determined to avoid trouble, trouble, like a shark that has smelled blood, pounced on him.
Back then, the patriarch of the sea serpent clan, Snake Ape, had a fierce battle with Ling Feng. In the end, he was severely injured by Ling Feng with lightning speed and almost lost his life.
Fortunately, he managed to survive.
However, ever since that crushing defeat, Snake Ape has been extremely wary of Ling Feng.
Despite his deep resentment towards Ling Feng, wishing he could tear him to pieces to vent his anger, he knew that with his current abilities, he was no match for Ling Feng when he thought of Ling Feng's terrifying strength—he had seriously injured him with just one move.
Furthermore, even their unfathomable ancestor, the Sea Serpent Clan, remained indifferent and unwilling to offer assistance.
Therefore, in the years that have passed, the snake-gorilla could only choose to swallow its anger, temporarily forget this humiliating experience, and strictly order its people to stay far away from the sea that had once caused them such great harm.
Time flies, and millions of years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Meanwhile, the snake-ape's cultivation level also advanced rapidly during this period, successfully breaking through from the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal to the advanced late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Meanwhile, the dragon race has risen to power, unified the four seas, and become the undisputed overlord of the ocean.
After weighing the pros and cons, the sea serpent clan resolutely chose to submit to the dragon clan in order to secure a place for survival in this turbulent era.
Originally, they had only been under the Dragon Clan's control for a short time, and logically speaking, the Snake Ape never intended to seek revenge against Ling Feng so soon.
However, things don't always go as planned. One day, the snake-gorilla unexpectedly caught a glimpse of Ling Feng's presence!
The unique aura emanating from Ling Feng, this sworn enemy, was etched into the snake's heart and remained unforgettable until his death.
Now that they had discovered clues about their enemy, and more importantly, that Ling Feng was not on the mysterious Penglai Immortal Island, the snake-gorilla suddenly felt as if it had regained enough confidence and strength.
After all, he has the incredibly powerful dragon clan backing him up right now!
In this way, he believed that taking revenge on Ling Feng would become a piece of cake.
Without hesitation, the snake-gorilla immediately sent a message to the dragon clan for help, and then led a large number of its clansmen to intercept Ling Feng's path.
When Ling Feng was suddenly blocked in his path by the snake-gorilla and the large group of sea snakes it led, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
It should be noted that, in the snake-gorilla's understanding, this deep-seated hatred that has lasted for millions of years is only something that happened recently to Ling Feng.
Therefore, Ling Feng naturally recognized the snake-gorilla in front of him at a glance.
What he never expected was that fate would be so coincidental, bringing him right into this very place with his nemesis!
Ling Feng originally didn't want to cause trouble, but the moment he saw the snake-gorilla, he knew that things would definitely not end well today.
Ling Feng's incredibly sharp perception had already discerned the cultivation levels of the snake-axe and his companions.
At this moment, he had already made up his mind and couldn't help but directly question:
"Back then, I let you escape with your life by sheer luck. But today, you dare to block my path, utterly reckless! Do you really think I wouldn't dare take your lives?"
Upon hearing Ling Feng's words, the snake-gorilla's eyes widened in fury, and it roared through gritted teeth:
"Hmph! My son died tragically at your hands, I swear I will not rest until I avenge this! Today, even if it means we both die, I will make you pay for my son's life!"
Faced with such a stubborn person, Ling Feng shook his head helplessly, having lost all interest in continuing the conversation.
Ling Feng casually waved his arm, and in an instant, an incomparably powerful force of law swept towards the snake ape and its companions like a surging torrent.
This force of law arrived so quickly and fiercely that the snake-gorilla and the others had no time to react.
In the blink of an eye, apart from the Snake Ape, a powerful expert who had reached the late stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm and was only seriously injured and on the verge of death, everyone else was instantly blasted into ashes by this terrifying power.
The severely injured snake-gorilla plummeted straight into the icy, bone-chilling seawater like a lifeless, dead snake.
He stared at Ling Feng with a face full of horror and disbelief, his lips trembling as he murmured:
"You...you're actually a Great Luo Golden Immortal!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a mouthful of scarlet blood gushed from his mouth.
"As you can see, if you hadn't deliberately provoked and provoke me, I wouldn't have bothered to seek trouble and annoy you. But who could have predicted that you would be so arrogant and willing to court death!"
When Ling Feng personally admitted that he was a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the snake-gorilla instantly lost all thoughts and courage to resist.
After all, in front of a powerful expert at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, his meager cultivation was simply a huge joke, as insignificant as a drop in the ocean, not even capable of stirring up the slightest ripple.
However, even faced with such a huge disparity in strength, the snake-gorilla was still unwilling to admit defeat so easily, and stubbornly roared at the top of its lungs:
"Hmph! Don't be so arrogant and smug here! So what if you really are at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm? Our ancestor and the incomparably powerful Dragon Clan will never let this go and will make you pay a heavy price!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng felt a chill run down his spine, and his eyes twitched uncontrollably.
Ling Feng didn't pay much attention to the so-called ancestor mentioned by the snake-like ape.
In his view, that ancestor was at most at the early or middle stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and with his current strength, he was not particularly afraid of him.
However, the mysterious and renowned dragon race was one that Ling Feng dared not underestimate in the slightest.
After all, no matter what, the dragon race is undoubtedly one of the three great overlords in the world today, and this weighty status cannot be easily dismissed.
Immediately, Ling Feng grew extremely annoyed by the need to waste words with the snake-gorilla. With a sudden swing of his arm, a powerful force erupted and shot straight towards the snake-gorilla.
Faced with such a fierce and unexpected attack, the snake-gorilla didn't even have time to make any effective resistance.
It could only watch helplessly as that terrifying energy swept in like a storm, then mercilessly devoured it.
However, even in its final moments, the snake-gorilla was unwilling to die so easily.
With its last ounce of strength, it used every trick in the book to plant a mysterious and malevolent mark of death on Ling Feng's body.
This mark seemed like a curse, deeply embedded in Ling Feng's soul.
From then on, wherever Ling Feng went, as long as he remained within a certain range, others could sense that the snake ape had died at his hands.
What's even more terrifying is that once this mark is planted, it will relentlessly haunt Ling Feng, making it impossible for him to escape.
Ling Feng was skeptical of what the snake-gorilla had said before its death.
Although he wasn't sure if the dragons would cause him trouble, he really didn't want to provoke them at the moment.
Therefore, after successfully dealing with the snake-gorilla, Ling Feng dared not delay for a moment. His figure transformed into a dazzling stream of light, and he sped towards the distant prehistoric continent at an astonishing speed.
Not long after Ling Feng left, a violent wave suddenly appeared on the originally calm sea.
Immediately afterwards, a figure exuding boundless majesty slowly rose from the seabed—it was none other than the ancestor of the sea serpent clan!
Almost simultaneously, a deafening dragon roar echoed from the sky.
A massive, majestic five-clawed golden dragon roared in.
It shone with a dazzling golden light, like a blazing sun descending upon the world.
As soon as the two powerful figures appeared, they immediately sensed the intense battle aura lingering in the air.
With a slight sense of their surroundings, they not only discerned the final outcome of the fierce battle but also accurately captured the traces left behind by Ling Feng when he departed.
After exchanging a few thoughts, the two of them simultaneously chased after Ling Feng in the direction he had left.
