NOVEL NEXT Chapter 144 Well then, let's collect some interest first!
```
At this moment, Die Wu, standing behind Lei Wuji, was also waiting for Ye Feng's arrival; she wanted to see him slain by Lei Wuji with her own eyes.
```
```
The Human Race must not be permitted to have such an exceptionally gifted genius. Since their Ancient Demon Race was unable to kill him, they would naturally seek to do so through another's hand.
```
```
It's also because this human didn't know how to keep a low profile, causing enemies to emerge everywhere. Now, including herself atop Tian Huang Mountain peak, there were six people, all of whom were his adversaries.
```
```
Despite her own insufficiency in strength, once the trio from the Six-eyed Flying Fish broke through, they should also be capable of killing Ye Feng.
```
```
After all, to geniuses of their caliber, the gap between the Emperor Realm and the Heavenly Saint Realm is as vast as a chasm between heaven and earth.
```
```
Just like how a prodigy from the Eternal Clan could slay Transcendent Professional Experts from the Depths of Starry Sky when in the Heavenly Saint Realm, but after their breakthrough to the Emperor Realm, defeating Martial God Realm experts would be possible, yet killing them would be quite difficult.
```
```
Beyond the Emperor Realm, every step is an obstacle; being able to conquer opponents across two major realms already places one amongst the most exceptional geniuses in the Starry Sky.
```
```
As for slaying them, she had never heard of an Emperor having killed a Martial God Realm expert.
```
```
Perhaps it had happened before but it certainly had never been revealed.
```
```
The trio from the Six-eyed Flying Fish were also awaiting a breakthrough, waiting for Ye Feng's arrival.
```
```
After all, they wanted to witness the clash between Ye Feng and Lei Wuji, which might yield some gains from the fight.
```
```
Another reason was that the three of them were all waiting to swoop in for any spoils; after all, Ye Feng surely held great secrets.
```
```
If they could obtain these secrets, their power might surge dramatically, and even if they didn't surpass the Eternal Clan, they would become the number one entity of their realm among all the races!
```
```
"Quick, we're almost at the mountain peak!"
```
```
"Haha, I can't believe we're the first group here. Let's quickly find a place to make our...breakthrough!"
```
```
Just then, a variety of Foreign Spirits appeared atop the mountain peak and prepared to make their breakthrough.
```
```
"Boom, crack!"
```
```
All of a sudden, thunder roared, and those Foreign Spirits were struck by purple lightning, their bodies exploding instantaneously, their blood raining down on the peak of Tian Huang Mountain.
```
```
Die Wu's eyelids twitched frantically as she watched the arcs of electricity flaring around Lei Wuji and swallowed a gulp of saliva.
```
```
In a single encounter, just one, those Foreign Spirits had all perished.
```
```
And Lei Wuji hadn't even moved an inch.
```
```
He was too strong!
```
```
Impossibly strong!
```
```
Thinking this, a wild joy flickered in Die Wu's eyes, the Human Race member was surely doomed!
```
```
...
```
```
At the same time, members of the one hundred races such as the Heaven Tearing Divine Bull, the Nine-colored divine sparrow, and the Star Wolf stood below the mountain peak, not daring to step further.
```
```
It was clear they sensed the fall of the Foreign Spirits who had arrived before them.
```
```
"I told you, haste brings no good fortune!"
```
```
Lang Jie slowly let out a deep breath, quickly calming the fear in his heart.
```
```
"The Lei Clan and the Ling Clan have really sent more people!"
```
```
Fierce unparalleled spoke, his face showing a look of 'as expected.'
```
```
"And it's those two again, Lei Wuji and Ling Feng. Even amongst their own clans, they are among the few undisputed in the Heavenly Saint Realm. Now, Ye Huang is likely out of options."
```
```
Niu Bahai's voice boomed, and neither Fierce Unparalleled nor Lang Jie contradicted him. Unlike Lei Kong and Ling Jie, Lei Wuji and Ling Feng were already famous; their strength was universally acknowledged.
```
```
Once they broke through to the Emperor Realm, they would surely shine in the Depths of Starry Sky.
```
```
...
```
```
"Luo Qingcheng?"
```
```
Elsewhere, Luo Qingcheng was heading in the direction of Tian Huang Mountain, when she heard someone calling her. With some confusion, she turned to see a group of several people emerging from another path.
```
It was Ye Feng who led a group of members of the Martial God Temple from the Human Race.
"Long time no see!"
Wu Changkong had held back for a while, and finally blurted out these words, immediately causing a few suppressed laughs among the members of the Martial God Temple behind him.
Their senior brother was truly unique—as fond of someone as he was, he still wouldn't confess his feelings and instead came out with such a sentence upon meeting them.
On the other side, Luo Qingcheng tilted her head, looking at him with confusion, not understanding what was going on with him.
"Well, let's join forces!"
"Speaking of which, I didn't see your name on the Beast God Rank."
"Hmm, I just came out of a Secret Realm!"
Hearing Luo Qingcheng's words, everyone was startled and then their eyes showed a hint of envy.
Although they were not familiar with the situation in Beast God Mountain, they too had encountered a member of the Foreign Race who had emerged from a Secret Realm with unprecedented strength.
That also made them realize that there were indeed great opportunities around the periphery of Beast God Mountain, apart from the Starry Sea and Tian Huang Mountain.
Wu Changkong's gaze fell on Luo Qingcheng, who had just broken through to the King's Realm before entering, but who had now reached the peak of Level Nine Heavenly Saint Realm.
This had not even been half a month—the speed of her progress could truly be called miraculous.
"Congratulations, Junior Martial Sister Luo!"
Wu Changkong was genuinely happy for Luo Qingcheng, before he suddenly changed the subject and asked,
"By the way, Junior Martial Sister Luo, do you know who that Ye Huang from the first place on the Beast God Rank is?"
Luo Qingcheng blinked and then turned to look at the Beast God Rank.
When she saw the nine-digit score at the top of the Beast God Rank, her eyes widened adorably with amazement.
"It's Ye Feng!"
Upon hearing Luo Qingcheng's words, the hearts of everyone from the Martial God Temple instantly steadied!
In the previous few days, the name of Ye Huang had already spread among the Foreign Races, so that originally when they encountered members of the Foreign Race, they would turn and run, if they were not avoiding them altogether.
After all, the strength of the Foreign Races generally surpassed theirs.
But when they encountered the Foreign Races again, these Foreign Spirits not only refrained from looking at them coldly or attacking, but they even started to strike up conversations with them.
In their conversations, they frequently asked if they knew Ye Huang.
This allowed them to learn about Ye Huang's feats. When they found out that he had slain two top experts of the Foreign Race and caused another three top experts to flee with serious injuries, everyone was shocked.
Although they had heard about that peerless genius from the Holy Institute before entering Beast God Mountain, they still couldn't match Ye Feng with Ye Huang, no matter what.
Not until the moment they learned from Luo Qingcheng's mouth that Ye Huang was actually Ye Feng did an immense shock cover their hearts.
How could it be that only you from the Human Race are so remarkably prodigious!
Soon, their group entered Tian Huang Mountain, and as Tian Huang Mountain surfaced, its information was imprinted into their minds.
The effects of breakthroughs at the mountain peak, mid-mountain, and foothills differed, with the peak being the best location to make a breakthrough.
They also harbored ambitions—not expecting to reach the peak as it was crowded with strong individuals, but a foothold in the mid-mountain would already be quite an achievement.
Meanwhile, at the moment when they stepped into Tian Huang Mountain, Lei Wuji, who was at the peak, suddenly opened his eyes.
A bolt of lightning took form from his eyes, turning into a ferocious Thunder Dragon, followed immediately by the sound of a dragon's roar echoing in the void.
"So be it~ Since that Ye Feng hasn't arrived, I might as well collect some interest!"
Clearly, he had detected the presence of the Human Race!
The next second, his figure vanished from the peak of the mountain in an instant.
