Chapter 720 - Emperor-Tier Divine Arms

Everyone from the Wind clan was shocked the moment they saw the Profound Golden Soul. It was clear that the item was one of the most important treasures of the Gold clan.

Even Aunt Snow was stunned.

“Hehe, never thought the patriarch would give us the Profound Golden Soul, did you? Why don’t you start running away since you know how strong this treasure is. You won’t be able to escape the moment I use it!” Jin Ba shouted at Aunt Snow.

Aunt Snow was worried, but Feng Zhilin wasn’t afraid at all.

Does the young mistress have something that can deal with the Profound Golden Soul?

Even Long Chen was wondering that, because Feng Zhilin was too calm.

“Hey, brat, let me tell you something good!” Little Cat’s voice drifted from the Primordial Realm.

“What is it?”

The situation was critical. Every single good news might become the chance for Long Chen to turn things around.

“Did you see that treasure? The Profound Golden Soul is filled with the energy of metal. It would amplify the strength of metal-type martial techniques. However, the one in front of us is such a small chunk that the amplification wouldn’t be too strong. Still, it will be enough for the twins to use. More importantly, the Profound Golden Soul can help you cultivate the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal!”

“The Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal?” Long Chen stared at the golden stone floating in front of Jin Xiong greedily. The Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal would be as strong as the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal. But the special property of the Five Emperor Seals was their amplification! By merging two seals together, the destructive powers would be amplified by many folds.

The more complete the Five Emperor Seals were, the stronger they would become!

A regular Emperor-tier martial technique wouldn’t hold a candle to the Five Emperor Seals!

Long Chen now had a dilemma. Both the Martial God Tombstone and the Profound Golden Soul were very useful for him, but he was currently too weak to take them. He could not obtain both items at the same time unless he risked his life by going all-out.

Those who could stand at the top were often crazy. Long Chen decided to be crazy just for today!

Feng Zhilin was still smiling calmly even when she recognized Jin Xiong’s Profound Golden Soul. Jin Xiong felt humiliated by her courage. “Feng Zhilin, leave this place. The Martial God Tombstone is not something the Wind clan can take. Do not blame me for using the Profound Golden Soul to amplify my Golden Eyes of Annihilation enough to truly hurt you!”

He chuckled coldly.

“Young mistress ...” Aunt Snow was worried. She wanted to tell Feng Zhilin that their lives were more important, but she stopped talking when she saw Feng Zhilin’s undaunted face.

Feng Zhilin finally said, “Go ahead and use it. We will soon know who will have to leave this place.”

Her voice was cold and disrespectful towards the two elders from the Gold clan.

Someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage was far stronger than what Long Chen could handle. Feng Zhilin, however, could not only ignore them, she even ignored the Profound Golden Soul.

“Hmph!” Jin Xiong and Jin Ba looked at each other. They knew that they would have to use their full strength in front of the haughty Feng Zhilin today. It was worth it for the sake of taking the Martial God Tombstone from the Wind clan. They were aware that Feng Zhilin was Feng Qing’s favorite, but they had to risk it.

It was actually too early for the final clash between the Nine Great Clans. They had been courteous with one another on the starplate. After years of being in control of their own empires, all three factions were already at each other's throats. They only remained courteous because two factions attacking each other in the open would result in the third faction reaping all the benefits.

This particular opening of the Ancient Graveyard was extremely important. Everyone expected there to be a massive battle near the end of the year, where the Nine Great Clans would kill each other. Jin Xiong and Jin Wu both thought that it was worth moving the final battle forward for the sake of the Martial God Tombstone!

The Five Great Clans were arrogant because they were the true descendants of the Five Emperors. They did not fear anyone.

Jin Xiong gritted his teeth and started controlling the Profound Golden Soul.

“Young mistress!” Aunt Snow pounced towards Jin Xiong recklessly, but Jin Ba blocked her.

“Woman, your opponent is me!”

For the sake of Feng Zhilin, Aunt Snow used all of her strength to fight Jin Ba.

As her name implied, she was an expert in using snow. Cold air enveloped her body, causing the surrounding temperature to drop rapidly. Everyone stared at her with awe as she covered herself with snow and hail.

The battle became fiercer! Before coming to Black Gold City, Feng Qing had instructed Aunt Snow to protect Feng Zhilin at all costs. She was putting her life on the line to protect Feng Zhilin right now, so she used various snow-related martial techniques. Each snowflake was seeped in a frightening amount of bloodlust.

“So this is the rumored snow lady. Your Snowflake Fist is indeed strong, but can these little things cut through my Golden Combat Body?” Jin Ba laughed and stood in front of her. While he was laughing on the outside, he was actually secretly going all-out against the serious Aunt Snow. The floating snowflakes in the air were actually capable of cutting through his technique!

While the two of them fought claw-to-claw, Jin Xiong finally used his technique. He controlled the Profound Golden Soul to float near him before charging towards Feng Zhilin!

Feng Zhilin did not even blink even though he was getting close to her!

Jin Xiong howled as he stared at the Profound Golden Soul with killing intent.

“Die! Golden Eyes of Annihilation!”

Two rays of light shot out of his eyes and fused with the Profound Golden Soul. The Profound Golden Soul shook violently, and the dark, golden runes lit up on it. In just a short period of time, it had vibrated thousands of times.

“Go!” Jin Xiong shouted.

The Profound Golden Soul trembled violently one last time before shooting out the same two rays of light, but this time they were tens of times thicker and were significantly faster!

The Golden Eyes of Annihilation was the famous technique of the Gold clan. It was a technique that became stronger with the user, just like the Wind clan’s Three Thousand Illusions. However, Feng Zhilin hadn't used the Three Thousand Illusions yet!

Feng Zhilin rarely fought, but every time she did, everyone would be surprised by her strength.

Her face was still stoic even when she saw the amplified Golden Eyes of Annihilation.

“Young mistress!” Aunt Snow panicked. Because Feng Zhilin rarely fought in public, even Aunt Snow didn’t know how strong she was. She had only heard Feng Qing telling her that Feng Zhilin was strong.

She turned away from Jin Xiong, which was a huge risk, and ushed to rescue Feng Zhilin.

“Don’t come here!” Feng Zhilin shouted.

At the same time, she waved her hand furiously.

Everything had been normal prior to this, but the moment she waved her right arm, an entire shockwave blew towards Jin Xiong.

Long Chen was shocked.

Feng Zhilin looked like she just swung a long whip, but there’s nothing in her right hand. Where is her whip?

The answer soon became clear.

When the amplified Golden Eye of Annihilation almost hit Feng Zhilin, she waved her arm. Everyone watched the Profound Golden Soul get swatted away even though it was under the control of Jin Xiong!

Everyone was surprised because they knew what it was.

Since the Profound Golden Soul had been moved, the Golden Eyes of Annihilation naturally missed her. Feng Zhilin stood still as the two rays of light flew just two meters away from her and impacted something in the horizon.

Jin Xiong had lost control of the Profound Golden Soul.

Both Jin Xiong and Jin Ba ignored the Profound Golden Soul while their jaws dropped.

Everyone except for Long Chen looked at Feng Zhilin with shock and awe. Even Aunt Snow was surprised. “To think that the Wind clan’s patriarch gave the young mistress the Shapeless Whip ...”

Jin Xiong and Jin Ba recognized the object. The Wind clan’s Shapeless Whip was a well-known artifact, similar to the Gold clan’s Profound Golden Soul. As its name implied, the whip was invisible. The only one who could see it was its owner. The owner of the Shapeless Whip had to use their blood to take control of it.
