Chapter 272 - Arriving at the Southern Sea
Chapter 272 Arriving at the Southern Sea
It was precisely because the Heavenly Star Patriarch was exerting pressure that Zhou Feng was able to do as he pleased.
Otherwise, a Divine Ability expert would have already made a move, and Zhou Feng would not be as unrestrained as he was now.
Many people could roughly guess the reason behind the Heavenly Star Patriarch’s actions.
It was rumored that the Heavenly Star Patriarch had once traveled to the Central Plains when he was young.
Only after he failed in the struggle for hegemony did he return to the Southern Border to take over his family’s city.
The Central Plains was the most powerful region of the human race. In the Central Plains, the other races’ members were all slaves, and even dragons could be seen pulling carts. The humans there were all chauvinistic.
It was normal for the Heavenly Star Patriarch to be affected.
Although the Human Emperors’ era had long been gone, their achievements were still hard to erase.
Therefore, it was normal for him to take care of the Human Emperor’s successor.

The Human Emperor’s successor was naturally of more importance than the other races.
Of course, this kind of help was not unlimited.
The Heavenly Star Patriarch only restricted the Divine Ability experts from making a move. He did not care about anything else.
Zhou Feng’s life and death had nothing to do with the Heavenly Star Patriarch.
The Heavenly Star Patriarch wasn’t taking care of Zhou Feng but of his status as the successor of the Human Emperor.
However, just this was enough for Zhou Feng.
Given his ability to survive, it would still be a bit difficult for Purple Mansion cultivators to kill him.
At Heavenly Star City, in the Li Clan…
“Did you hear? That person killed a direct descendant of the Bai Clan!”
“I heard about that too! He even killed his Dao Protector.”
“Is it really that exaggerated?” “Of course! It’s not just exaggerated, it’s almost like a joke. To think a vagabond cultivator would attract such attention!”
At present, Zhou Feng was a hot topic of discussion in the Li Clan.
There was nothing they could do!
Zhou Feng had become a popular figure in Heavenly Star City during this period.
The main reason was that his actions were too exaggerated.
Not only did he kill a direct descendant of the Bai Clan but also his Dao Protector.
Now, the entire Bai Clan had gone crazy, and they had already mobilized the vassal clans to find Zhou Feng.
And because of Zhou Feng’s unclear relationship with Li Rong, the Li Clan paid special attention to Zhou Feng.
Ever since Li Rong had met Zhou Feng, she had not been having a good time within the clan because of him.
Although Li Rong was the patriarch’s daughter, there were many mountains within a large clan.
The patriarch had other children as well. If Li Rong did not have a Divine Ability aunt behind her, her situation would have been even more difficult.
However, it was different. With Zhou Feng’s rise, the clansmen were now much more polite to Li Rong.
At the very least, they did not dare to suppress Li Rong openly.
Everyone knew that Zhou Feng was a madman. Once one provoked him, he would not care about the other party’s status.
He had even killed a direct descendant of the Bai Clan. Did he have any scruples?
What if they bullied Li Rong and this madman found out?
The consequences were simply unimaginable.
A madman was not scary. What was scary was that this madman was ridiculously strong.
‘It’s good that you’re fine!’
Feeling the changes around her during this period, Li Rong once again understood the importance of strength.
The others were now much more polite with her because Zhou Feng was powerful, and she shared a special relationship with him.
Although Zhou Feng was a vagabond cultivator and did not have any backers behind him, his ‘aptitude’ ensured that he would go further and further on the path of cultivation.
If she continued like this, she might not be able to have any other connection with Zhou Feng in her life.
‘At the very least… I have to be able to see his back!
Li Rong gnashed her teeth and forced herself to enter the state of cultivation.
Just as everyone was searching for Zhou Feng…
Zhou Feng had already relied on his passive Bloodline Simulation to change his appearance and aura, and he was currently heading toward the Southern Sea.
In this world, almost all cultivators relied on a person’s aura to recognize them.
Everyone’s aura was different, and it was tough to alter something like this.
Even if one managed to alter it, this change would be minimal.
Therefore, Zhou Feng slipped away under his pursuers’ noses effortlessly.
He got rid of all his pursuers in an instant!
It was not an exaggeration to say that this passive Bloodline Simulation was his salvation.
It allowed him to get rid of a lot of trouble.
‘Southern Sea…!
At this moment, Zhou Feng could already feel a salty and fishy smell. This was the smell of the sea.
As he got closer and closer to the sea, the surroundings became more and more desolate. There weren’t even any traces of humans. It was extremely primitive.
From his information, the Southern Sea was a xenophobic place. Other than the aquatic creatures, almost no other race could survive in this place.
And the ruler of the Southern Sea was the Southern Sea Dragon Clan.
Why did they have to become the Southern Sea Dragon Clan instead of calling themselves the Dragon Clan?
This was because the Southern Sea Dragon Clan didn’t dare to call themselves true dragons. The Southern Sea Dragon Clan only had a trace of the true dragon bloodline.
The Southern Sea Dragon Sovereign was essentially just a Flood Dragon, and his cultivation was only at the peak of the Divine Ability realm.
He had four fierce generals under him, and each of them was also in the Divine Ability realm.
Apart from that, there were also quite a few chieftains of the aquatic tribes who were in the Divine Ability realm.
They seemed to be much stronger than Heavenly Star City in terms of strength alone.
But in reality, the Southern Sea’s experts did not dare to go ashore.
Why? The Dragon King suffering a humiliating defeat in Holy Maiden Green Lotus’ hands not long ago was the perfect example.
This could be considered the human race’s dominance over the other races.
If an expert of the aquatic tribes dared to go ashore, they would very easily be surrounded and attacked.
Usually, only one or two aquatic tribesmen could go ashore to trade.
‘It’s just ahead! In this direction…’
As Zhou Feng got closer and closer to the sea, the Human Emperor Ring on his finger also showed a slight reaction.
This meant that the Human Emperor’s land of heritage was just ahead.
However, according to the map he had gotten from Li Rong, the direction ahead seemed to be the location of the Dragon Palace!
“Could it be that the land of heritage is the Dragon Palace? If that’s the case, it’ll be troublesome!
Zhou Feng suddenly felt that it was a bit tricky.
The Dragon Palace was not a place that ordinary people could enter.
Should he retreat now? Impossible!

The Human Emperor Scripture’s second half was within reach, so how could Zhou Feng retreat now?
If that were the case, he could only take it one step at a time.
In a short while, Zhou Feng arrived at the seaside.
Dense water vapor rushed toward him.
The blue sea looked very calm and did not have many waves.
He was not uncomfortable with the current environment because he was simulating a demonic sea turtle.
The strength of the bloodline simulation was also displayed.
This was a full-scale simulation, not some half-assed technique. Zhou Feng even felt that he could survive in the sea.
‘If memory serves me, I seem to have the passive Underwater Breathing!
With the passive Underwater Breathing and Bloodline Simulation, he could completely pretend to be an aquatic creature.
