The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1369: Earth Emperor Pool

"Shut your filthy mouth!"

Feng Ling fixed Lu Tianyi with a cold stare. Her aura burst forth and surged outward like a violent wave.

Lu Tianyi had already lost a front tooth from the blow. He trembled with rage and shouted, "Damn it, you bitch. I gave you a little face and you dare push your luck. I am a direct disciple!"

He had seen Feng Ling before and always thought she was just an ordinary inner sect disciple, so he never bothered to show her any respect.

"So what if you are a direct disciple? If you keep spewing filth, I will still beat you!"

Feng Ling's temper was already at the brink of exploding.

"Junior Brother Lu!"

At that moment, a burly man strode forward and pressed a hand on Lu Tianyi's shoulder. He then cupped his fists toward Feng Ling and said calmly, "Junior Sister Feng Ling, Junior Brother Lu has just entered the inner sect and does not understand the rules yet. I hope you will not take it to heart. Junior Brother Lu, hurry up and apologize to Senior Sister!"

Lu Tianyi froze. Only then did he realize that he had kicked a steel plate. He quickly backed down and said, "Sorry, sorry. I spoke without thinking. I hope Senior Sister will forgive me."

"Hmph!"

Feng Ling snorted coldly. She glanced at the burly man and said through clenched teeth, "For Senior Brother Zhuo's sake, I will let you off this time. Get lost!"

"Thank you, Junior Sister!"

Senior Brother Zhuo grabbed Lu Tianyi and, with a flash of movement, headed straight toward the entrance of the Earth Emperor Pool.

"Hmph! Arrogant jerk, how is it that you make enemies wherever you go?"

After the two of them had gone far away, Feng Ling finally shot Ling Feng an annoyed glare, looking as though she might explode at any moment.

"Maybe he is jealous that I am better looking than him."

Ling Feng shrugged lightly. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, though no one knew what he was planning.

"Junior Brother Ling Feng, I advise you not to act recklessly."

Seeing his expression, Li Fei let out a soft sigh and said slowly, "That Zhuo Yang is ranked forty-eighth on the Creation Star Ranking. He is not easy to deal with. When we fight over the cultivation ground later, try not to clash with them."

Ling Feng gave a small shrug, clearly not taking her words to heart.

Li Fei could only smile helplessly. The group soon arrived at the entrance of the Earth Emperor Pool. At the front stood an old man in white robes, suspended in midair. His gaze swept over the crowd as he raised his voice and shouted, "The Earth Emperor Pool is about to open. I will only say the rules once!"

"First, when competing for cultivation grounds, stop once a winner is decided. Anyone who harms fellow disciples will be executed according to the law!"

"Second, after entering the Earth Emperor Pool, you only have the first hour to seize cultivation grounds. After one hour, no one is allowed to fight for territory anymore. You must focus on cultivation. Anyone who violates this rule will be stripped of the right to enter the Earth Emperor Pool for life!"

"Third, after ten days, you must leave the Earth Emperor Pool on your own. No delays are allowed! Anyone who overstays will be thrown into the Black Abyss for half a year!"

As the old man in white finished speaking, many of the disciples who were here for the first time could not help but grow solemn.

The rules inside the Earth Emperor Pool were indeed harsh. However, this was also to ensure that every disciple could gain something inside. If the fighting never stopped, then in ten days, only a handful of people would be able to cultivate in peace.

"All right. Now hand over your Earth Emperor Tokens. One token per person. Do not even think about trying to sneak through."

As the old man in white finished speaking, the massive gate in front slowly opened. Dazzling golden light shot out from within, followed by an incomparably dense surge of heaven and earth spiritual energy that rushed toward them, causing everyone to feel refreshed.

"So this really is a treasure land!"

Ling Feng rubbed the bridge of his nose. Within that pure heaven and earth spiritual energy, he could clearly sense the endless vitality of the five elements, the subtle rotations of yin and yang, and the power of various laws that was almost tangible. No wonder cultivating in the Earth Emperor Pool greatly increased one's chances of making a breakthrough.

"Stop staring and move!"

Li Fei gave a soft rebuke and did not hesitate at all. She immediately charged into the flow of people. Her goal was to at least secure a mystic-tier cultivation ground and, if possible, push for an earth-tier cultivation ground.

So her first move was to head straight toward the earth-tier cultivation ground zone.

Ling Feng raised his brows. Activating the Boundless Sword Steps, he followed closely behind Li Fei. Feng Ling and Yan Guying were right behind him. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

The moment they passed through the luminous barrier outside the Earth Emperor Pool, a burst of intense white light flooded their vision, making it almost impossible to see anything.

After the brief blindness faded, what appeared before them was a scene of flowing waters and drifting clouds, like a paradise on earth!

"This is the Earth Emperor Pool?"

Ling Feng took a deep breath. The dense heaven and earth spiritual energy had almost condensed into droplets. When it touched his skin, it felt cool and faintly moist.

Ahead, mountains rose one after another, covered in lush forests as far as the eye could see.

The glow of dusk hung over the mountain peaks, scattering the last light of the setting sun.

The sunset was blood red and the dusk dreamlike, making it hard to resist sinking into the quiet beauty of the evening glow and forgetting to leave.

It was beautiful, beautiful like a paradise.

Faintly, one could see pavilions and towers scattered across the landscape. These pavilions were the places where the disciples would cultivate in seclusion, which were known as the cultivation grounds.

Each pavilion was built atop a spirit vein, where spiritual energy was the most abundant.

At the outermost ring, there were thirty two yellow-tier cultivation grounds. Next came sixteen mystic-tier cultivation grounds, then four earth-tier cultivation grounds, and finally one sky-tier cultivation ground.

So even though Ling Feng and Li Fei's group looked quite strong at first glance, it would not be easy for them to compete for an earth-tier cultivation ground.

"Arrogant jerk, what are you spacing out for? Hurry up and grab an earth-tier cultivation ground."

Feng Ling shot Ling Feng an annoyed look. Ling Feng curled his lips and activated his movement art, sticking close behind Li Fei.

Li Fei pointed toward the pavilions ahead and called out, "Junior Brother Ling Feng, the four of us will work together and seize an earth-tier cultivation ground as quickly as possible. As long as we can hold it for one hour, we should be fine."

Ling Feng raised his brows slightly and said calmly, "Senior Sister, where is the Great Emperor Spiritual Domain you mentioned before?"

Li Fei shook her head with a wry smile. "The Great Emperor Spiritual Domain lies even deeper than the sky-tier cultivation ground. It is surrounded by a barrier formed from heaven and earth spiritual energy, which we call the spiritual barrier. Only Great Emperor level experts can break through the spiritual barrier and enter the Great Emperor Spiritual Domain to cultivate."

"However, since the Earth Emperor Pool is only open to disciples, over the past several thousand years, only the Young Emperors ranked in the top three of the Creation Star Ranking have had a chance to cross the spiritual barrier and enter it. Even then, not every generation's top three Young Emperors possesses that level of strength."

"So that is how it is?"

Ling Feng lifted his brows. At that moment, a surge of powerful wind stirred beside him. A purple figure shot out from the back of the crowd like lightning. In the blink of an eye, that figure had already reached the front and claimed the only sky-tier cultivation ground.

"That is Senior Brother Chu Tiange. He has already taken the sky-tier cultivation ground. Our only target now is the earth-tier cultivation ground."

Li Fei had already expected this outcome, so she did not feel disappointed. She sped up again and rushed toward the earth-tier cultivation ground.

Ling Feng pursed his lips slightly as his gaze followed Chu Tiange's back. He had to admit that this man was truly powerful, and not just powerful in an ordinary sense.

If he were to face him head on, without using Chaotic Rebirth, Ling Feng was not confident that he stood much of a chance.
