Chen Feng could feel the strength of his body.
His body was as hard as a steel plate, and his firm muscles contained immense power.
The breakthrough of the [Red Sun Nine Heavens Painting] actually brought a huge change to his physique. This was something that Chen Feng had not expected.
He was much more resistant to attacks than many warrior classes right now.
Just then, only then did Chen Feng notice that 24 days had passed since he entered the [Soul Suppressing Pagoda], and two days had passed on the outside.
While his body was being transformed, Chen Feng did not feel hungry although he had not eaten for so many days.
However, he recalled that his sister was still outside, and he wondered how she was doing.
Just as Chen Feng was preparing to leave, he suddenly noticed that the [Ice Crystal Phoenix Egg] had changed!
The eggshell that was originally covered in ice still had traces of ice on it. The [Ice Crystal Phoenix Egg] emitted traces of heat instead.
“It mutated?”
Chen Feng mumbled and picked up [Ice Crystal Phoenix Egg] to take a look at it.
A line of comments appeared in front of Chen Feng.
“The [Ice Crystal Phoenix Egg] has undergone a qualitative change due to an unknown reason. It has now become the [Mystic Fire Phoenix Egg].
[MysticFire Phoenix Egg]
Introduction: Mystic Fire Phoenix egg. It will need a few more years before it can hatch for you to obtain a powerful pet. (Due to the mutation, it will need to hatch from scratch.)
“It will need to hatch from scratch?”
Chen Feng frowned slightly after he finished reading the introduction of the [Mystic Fire Phoenix Egg], he frowned slightly.
Initially, the phoenix egg was about to hatch, but it had suddenly mutated. It would now have to hatch from scratch…
Initially, he had planned to have one more pet to ensure his safety before heading to Mount Kunlun. Now, he did not know how long it would take for it to hatch.
Chen Feng shook his head slightly. He placed the [Mystic Phoenix Egg] in the [Soul Suppressing Pagoda] and vanished in the air.
....
After coming out of the pagoda, he looked at his sister’s closed door.
It seemed that his sister was yet to fully figure out the [Delaying Eye].
Chen Feng picked up his phone and opened the online forums to see if anything had happened in the past two days.
After opening the forums, the first post at the top instantly attracted Chen Feng’s attention.
“Incredible! The Fist King of America, Zachary, is battling against the top mercenary—?Vulture!”
Chen Feng clicked on it after looking at the title and immediately saw a video with the words “Fist King Zachary vs top mercenary?Vulture.”
He clicked on the video.
The muscular man in the video was none other than the Fist King, Zachary. His eyes were narrowed, and there was a cold glint in his eyes as he stared at the top mercenary—?Vulture.
He followed his gaze.
A bearded man with a gun in his hand and a black felt hat was also staring intently at Zachary.
Both of them got into their respective positions and watched each other as they prepared to attack.
Zachary’s muscles and bones suddenly trembled intensely, and the sound of bones cracking could be heard from his entire body.
The next moment, Zachary swung his legs to the ground and shot forward like a bullet. Zachary lunged at?Vulture, who was standing opposite him like a tiger descending from a mountain.
At the same time, Zachary raised his right hand, and his fingers pressed together as he pointed downwards. At this moment, his right hand transformed into a ferocious tiger’s claw as he struck it towards?Vulture’s head.
A powerful gust of wind immediately appeared out of nowhere and quickly swept towards?Vulture. A demonic presence immediately filled the air.
When?Vulture saw Zachary pouncing towards him, he could not help but be shocked. The strong gust of wind that had suddenly appeared caused his face to hurt. In his state of daze, he seemed to see a ferocious tiger pouncing towards him.
Vulture knew that Zachary was a close-combat fighter. He had long thought of a way to deal with Zachary. That was the reason why he had fought against him so brazenly.
However, he did not expect that Zachary to unleash such a unique attack. This was beyond?Vulture’s expectations, and he was secretly shocked.
“Thunder Flash Perplexing Track!”
Vulture was not an ordinary person. He could be considered a top-notch mercenary. Of course, he would not be frightened by Zachary’s pounce. He unleashed a skill at once.
Suddenly, a ball-shaped object that looked like a grenade appeared in his hand. He threw it out, and in the next moment, a blinding light appeared around Vulture, making it impossible for Zachary to see where he was. The sand under Vulture’s feet rose, and it did not disperse for a long time. Vulture’s figure disappeared in the sand.
“Boom!”
Zachary threw himself into the sandstorm without any hesitation. The sandstorm was immediately shaken by the impact of his pounce as the sand drifted in all directions.
“Is this a skill to block sight?” Zachary was shocked.
Right then, t sand did not disperse. Instead, it enveloped Zachary thirty meters away from the center of the circle. Zachary’s line of sight was immediately blocked.
Those who were watching the video posted comments to cheer for the top players of their respective countries.
“Zachary, do your best and smash him!”
“Vulture, keep it up! You can kill him!”
Comments flooded the screen.
“Tsk, this isn’t a competition to see who has more comments…”
After that, the screen was completely covered in comments. Chen Feng was speechless. The comments almost filled up the entire screen. How could he watch the battle between the two top players when he could not see anything? He turned off the comments decisively and began to watch the battle carefully.
Just then, Vulture, who was hidden in the sand, seemed to have released a power associated to the control of the earth element. As he activated the skill, a huge and heavy force pressed towards Zachary.
Zachary immediately felt as if the space around his body had been frozen. A huge force pressed down on him from all directions. The earth-element power in the sand was about to pounce on him.
“Hmph!” Zachary sneered.
All the muscles on his body bulged, and a cracking sound rang out An aura spread out from his body, forcing away the earth-type power that was rushing toward him.
However, since Vulture was hidden in the sand, Zachary could not accurately determine its location.
Zachary carefully sensed the fluctuations around him. His eyes shone brightly as he scanned his surroundings. It was as if his gaze could pierce through layers of sand.
“Dark Binding!”
Suddenly, a cold voice filled with hostility rang out from the sand.
Zachary then felt a dark magical wave coming from his left.
Immediately after, the sand and dust in the surroundings surged wildly, and loud hisses rang out as powerful hidden dark magic bubbled within the earth-element forces.
Several pitch-black chains as thick as an arm shot out from the dust and wrapped around Zachary.
Zachary immediately noticed the attribute fluctuation that had erupted from Vulture’s body when he attacked him.
Zachary instantly activated his SS-rank talent [Absolute Brute Force].
His form resembled that of a giant tiger stomping around on the ground.
A loud boom rang out as he dashed to the left at lightning speed.
The black chains, which were formed from dark attributes and wrapped around Zachary, suddenly missed their target, and Vulture immediately cried out in alarm from within the sand.
Plop! The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground rang out from the dust. The next moment, the sand covering the ground seemed to have lost its power. They failed to clump together and quickly dissipated.
Two figures slowly appeared. One of them was standing whereas the other was lying on the ground. They seemed to be unconscious.
The video ended.
After watching the video, Chen Feng shook his head slightly. The difference between the abilities of the top players in the world was huge. However,?Vulture clearly had a long-range advantage, yet he chose to fight Zachary in close combat instead. He could not understand why he chose to do so.
“Ring ring ring…”
Suddenly, the phone rang.
