Chapter 6120: The One Chosen By the People

The crowd alternated their gaze between Chu Feng and the mad woman. The truth was laid before them, but they still found it hard to believe.

How did Chu Feng get acquainted with this vicious woman?

They had never heard about this mad woman helping anyone!

“Young friend Chu Feng, your water runs deeper than I thought,” the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief remarked with a relieved smile.

The other Totem Dragon Clansmen, the Totem Nine Daoists, and the Dragon Breath Clansmen were relieved too. They had been worried when that mad woman first appeared; they feared her more than the Netherworld Sect.

Yet, the person whom they feared turned out to be an ally.

With the mad woman on their side, they could keep their heads up even when the enemy was the Netherworld Sect!

In contrast, the Netherworld Sectmembers had awful looks on their faces. Even Jimo Qianzhou hadn’t expected Chu Feng to be able to find so many helpers.

How could a mere junior be so well-connected?

He glanced at two Netherworld Sectmembers sitting at the corner of the spectator stand, but neither stepped forward to support Baili Zilin.

These two Netherworld Sectmembers were the conservative faction’s Yun Ao and Chen Hui.

“Looks like I have no choice but to make a move,” Yun Ao remarked reluctantly.

“I won’t be making a move,” Chen Hui said stubbornly.

“You can stay out of it, but I have already given them my word.”

Yun Ao stood up and thrust his palm forward.

Boom!

A burst of martial power gushed toward Baili Zilin’s spirit formation gate.

Yun Ao didn’t flaunt his aura, but the crowd still looked over when he made his move. He was bound to draw attention as his martial power was on par with Jimo Qianzhou; the two of them were clearly at the same cultivation level!

“The Netherworld Sect has another Heavenly God!!!” the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief murmured in astonishment.

Two Heavenly Gods from the Netherworld Sect had already stepped forward, but he had a gut feeling this wasn’t the full extent of the Netherworld Sect’s prowess

“Lord Yun Ao has reached Heavenly God?”

“As expected of someone who was offered the role of the Netherworld Marshall many times before!”

Even Netherworld Sectmembers were surprised by Yun Ao’s strength. They knew that Yun Ao had reached rank nine True God level, but they didn’t know that he had made a breakthrough to Heavenly God.

With Yun Ao’s help, Baili Zilin’s support formation underwent a metamorphosis. Huge tsunamis of brilliant golden energy billowed within the formation. It looked divine, but it also looked like it was capable of devouring everything.

“The Netherworld Sect’s foundation is too strong. They have two Heavenly Gods!”

“It isn’t for no reason that the galaxy overlords dare not mess with the Netherworld Sect.”

“Who would dare mess with a power like that?”

This completely overturned the crowd’s perception of the Netherworld Sect. Having two Heavenly Gods was completely different from just having one.

Even the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, known to be the strongest present-era power, only had one Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist—Jie Tianran. Some galaxy overlords didn’t even have a Heavenly God in their ranks, such as the Totem Dragon Clan.

This showed just how powerful the Netherworld Sect was.

Just then, an old but deep voice echoed from the sky.

“Young friend Chu Feng, I hope I’m not late.”

It was coming from an old man with a plain face dressed in a daoist robe.

“Who is that?”

Most people didn’t recognize this old man, but the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief and Chu Feng’s eyes lit up.

“Elder Ouyang?”

This old man was Ouyang Kongyu, one of the hidden experts in the world of cultivation. He had helped Chu Feng treat Jia Lingyi not too long ago.

Chu Feng didn’t expect him to come.

Ouyang Kongyu formed a hand seal and released a surge of spirit power toward Chu Feng’s support formation.

Two powerful energies appeared in Chu Feng’s support formation—one was golden martial power and the other was iridescent spirit power. These two energies didn’t mix, but they weren’t in conflict either. Instead, they seemed to have achieved a state of equilibrium.

Together, they shone even brighter than Baili Zilin’s support formation.

But more importantly, Chu Feng’s support formation was now on par with Baili Zilin’s.

“Elder Ouyang is a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist?”

Chu Feng and the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief were surprised. They had known that Ouyang Kongyu was a hidden expert, but they hadn’t expected him to be this powerful.

“No wonder our Totem Dragon Clan couldn’t move Elder Ouyang,” the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief murmured in self-contempt.

The Totem Dragon Clan had once invited Ouyang Kongyu to be their guest elder, but the latter rejected them. It now made sense why he had turned them down—there was no reason for him to join a power that was weaker than him.

“Ouyang Kongyu! It’s Ouyang Kongyu!”

“He’s a world spiritist who is even older than Jie Tianran. Someone like that came here to support Chu Feng!”

More and more people recognized Ouyang Kongyu.

Few juniors had heard about Ouyang Kongyu, but the sheer strength displayed by the latter made it clear that he was one of the top experts in the world of cultivation. The crowd looked at Ouyang Kongyu with respectful gazes.

There was no need for Chu Feng’s and Baili Zilin’s supporters to continuously channel energy into the support formation. The stronger the individual was, the shorter the time they needed to channel their energy into the support formation.

It didn’t take long for everyone to finish channeling their energy into the support formation.

That cleared up the line of sight.

Chu Feng’s and Baili Zilin’s support formations looked different, but their prowess was on par with each other.

More people were focused on Chu Feng. There was a mix of shock, confusion, and respect in their eyes.

Baili Zilin had the backing of the Netherworld Sect, so it was not surprising for him to obtain so much energy in his support formation.

In contrast, even though Chu Feng had accomplished many astounding feats, many believed that he didn’t have any solid backing. As talented and witty as he was, there was only so much that a junior like him could do.

When faced with a behemoth like the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, he could only hide in the shadows.

While Chu Feng had close friends, it was another question whether they would come here to support him when there was a risk of offending both the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion and the Netherworld Sect.

It would have been reasonable for Chu Feng’s friends to steer clear under such circumstances.

So, the crowd thought that Chu Feng would be mostly fighting alone. Even if he did receive some support, it would likely be from a couple of reckless juniors who didn’t know what they were getting into.

What happened today changed the crowd’s impression of Chu Feng.

Baili Zilin had previously mentioned that this trial tested a person’s character and principles. While Chu Feng’s and Baili Zilin’s support formations looked comparable to each other, there was a vast difference in the underlying meaning.

It was only normal for the Netherworld Sect to back Baili Zilin.

But Huahua, Xia Xingchen, the Totem Dragon Clan, the Totem Nine Daoists, the Dragon Breath Clan, the callous mad woman, and Ouyang Kongyu... this diverse group of people had gathered here to support Chu Feng despite knowing the risks, and many of them were doing this to repay Chu Feng’s favor.

This was testimony to Chu Feng’s character and charm!
