Chapter 567 A Sudden Request, [Bloodfire Crown]

hum!
Inside the steel building at Fortress No. 7.

The platinum light shone even brighter in his mind, and Chen Feng naturally withdrew his gaze.

The Colossus of the Shield has largely recovered from its injuries and has begun another phase of transformation.

With Yan Changkong stationed nearby and the Thai Kingdom withdrawing its troops, there is no need to worry too much for the time being.

"But the core of the earth..."

Narrowing his eyes, Chen Feng thought of what he had learned from the mental link with the Colossus of Aegis.

Judging from the feedback, this is some kind of energy core that is more advanced than the power of the earth's veins.

It can also be understood as a highly concentrated substance of the earth's vein power.

Only continents with abundant ley line energy can gather essence and give birth to such an energy core.

In the current world of calamity, the other party did not sense the item.

"Perhaps we should wait until we return to Earth to figure out a solution."

Shaking his head, Chen Feng felt a bit of a problem.

Such high-level energy treasures can only be obtained by chance, and it is unknown whether Earth or other secret worlds possess them.

With this in mind, he temporarily suppressed his plan to investigate further.

His spirit naturally sank into his heart, and he once again entered the world of resonance.

hum! !

The pure and bright legend is imprinted high in the sky, like the sun.

The pristine white steps rise from the earth, stretch across the sky, and reach the dome.

Looking back, thousands upon thousands of steps have already been climbed.

[Fist of Limits], [Body of Immense Power], [Extreme Speed], [Fearless Heart], [Cloak of Calamity].

The five heavenly ladder challenges have all become the past, transformed into manifestations of the world's will bestowed upon them.

And at this moment.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look ahead.

The highest throne, the World Throne, sits atop the clouds, beyond our reach.

And below that.

Hundreds of steps descend, leading to a wide platform suspended in mid-air.

We should have stepped forward and climbed up to the top.

but.

However, an invisible barrier isolates everything, blocking all paths.

It stretches out like an insurmountable chasm, impossible to bypass no matter what.

The burning blood and fire transformed into patterns, seemingly engraved on the barrier, bright and pulsating.

"Crown of Blood and Fire"

With a deep gaze, Chen Feng used his senses to sketch out the entirety of this massive barrier.

A golden crown ablaze with blood and fire.

According to Wu Yunhai, even within the High Wall Alliance, only a handful of people throughout history have been able to break through this barrier.

boom! !

Without hesitation, Chen Feng immediately gave it a try.

A powerful punch erupts, igniting flames and illuminating the world.

but.

The explosions reverberated, shaking the world.

The barrier formed by the [Crown of Blood and Fire] remained exceptionally stable, without even a ripple.

"really."

With a slightly lowered gaze, Chen Feng realized that the difficulty of this level was indeed as expected.

Perhaps it's because from the very beginning of his journey to transcendence and his ascent of the martial arts ladder, he surpassed ordinary people.

These heavenly ladder challenges, which embody the will of the world, are also more difficult than those faced by other martial arts practitioners who have transcended worldly boundaries.

He is now close to being sacred, yet he is still unable to forcefully break through it and overcome the barrier by violence.

There has never been such a case in the entire history of the High Strength Alliance.

hum! !

Trying again, Chen Feng unleashed his Burning Universe Force.

A giant comet suddenly appeared in the Heavenly Ladder World, briefly replacing the light of the legendary imprint.

At the same time, a near-perfect projection of the mind appeared, transforming into a burning flame that merged with the comet's punch.

Boom! !
A deafening explosion rang out, and the ladder to heaven shook.

A ripple finally appeared on the surface of the golden barrier with its blood-fire patterns, like ripples spreading across the surface.

The comet's polar impact seemed to forcefully shake the will of the manifested world.

Bang! !

However, in the next instant...

The comet exploded, and human figures flew backward.

Amidst the sonic booms, Chen Feng could be seen falling down a hundred steps, landing at the fifth level of the [Cloak of Calamity].

Two charred marks were rubbed into the pristine white steps, with burning blood and flames clinging to Chen Feng's body.

A slight stinging sensation came over him, and Chen Feng slightly bent his knees to steady himself.

His internal energy erupted once more, and his golden body's protective aura remained unbroken.

hum!
In the end, the blood and fire dissipated, completely extinguished.

Chen Feng looked up again at the huge barrier in the distance, his brows furrowed slightly, his expression somewhat gloomy.

That attack just now was comparable to a divine strike.

Even so, it still didn't work.

Even the blood and fire patterns on the surface of the barrier seemed to possess some kind of will, almost harming itself.

"If the burning blood and fire were not rootless, I would not have been able to extinguish it so easily."

"Could it be that this barrier is truly as rumored, impossible to break through with brute force?"

Feeling doubtful, Chen Feng thought of Wu Yunhai's last words.

There was a hint of uncertainty in his tone, and a deliberate recollection.

According to the few words left behind by the martial arts saint of the High Wall Alliance.

To truly overcome this obstacle, it seems the only way is through victory in some kind of war and a successful revenge achieved through blood and fire.

Only in this way can perfection be achieved.

At that time, the barrier will disappear, and the crown will be held.

Only one step remains to reach the Throne of the World.

With a flicker in his eyes, Chen Feng began to have many thoughts.

In the end, he did not try to force his way through the barrier. He took one last look at the [Bloodfire Crown] that had transformed into a barrier, blocking the Heavenly Ladder.

"Come again next time."

"We will definitely break through this barrier!"

hum! !

The sky was azure, and several gray-black aircraft streaked across the sky.

The lingering shockwaves persisted for a long time, and for several days in a row, air forces rushed from the north of the ancient empire to support Fortress No. 7.

As a result, squads of elite cyborgs and Imperial soldiers appeared to fill the fortress's manpower gaps, repair building walls, and reinforce and maintain artillery emplacements.

Another massive buoy followed, carrying advanced metal materials and certain precious biological drugs to complete the handover.

pat!

The door opened, and the burly Pandor lowered his head slightly, looking at the Imperial soldier who was shorter than him.

"Lord Pandor!"

The two-meter-tall imperial soldier immediately saluted, his attitude one of reverence.

Even after being injected with biological serum to modify his physique, he knew how insignificant and fragile he was compared to the person in front of him.

"These are for Lord Flamebringer: a total of twelve life energy potions and three high-grade rainbow stones."

"Some other items have been transported by the air force to a wilderness area 40 kilometers to the north and handed over."

Imperial soldiers reported the incident proactively, but Pandor was already used to it.

These days, the imperial soldiers and cyborgs bring a lot of items each time, and their words are basically the same.

"it is good."

With a deep nod, Pandor accepted the large metal box brought to him by the soldiers.

After saying a few words, he closed the door and placed the items outside Chen Feng's bedroom.

"My lord, everything has arrived."

"Ah."

Nodding slightly, Chen Feng opened his eyes. Several empty medicine bottles and jars were visible around him, containing the energy potions he had taken over the past few days.

The ancient empire showed some sincerity and didn't delay for too long.

Thanks to this.

【Steelbow LV8: 10/100】

[Divine Awakening Technique: Burning the Universe - Star Realm (31%→32%→33%)+]

As the steel bones absorbed nutrients once more, the progress of the Divine Awakening Technique continued to advance.

By carefully sensing the inner world of his body, Chen Feng could also perceive that the perfect expansion was coming to an end, and the sacred transformation was about to complete its final crucial stage.

"From this perspective, the driving force behind the expansion of the spiritual world is closely related to the seeds of life."

"Once the Divine Awakening Method completes its breakthrough, the Divine Transformation will also be finished."

Having clearly grasped his own situation, Chen Feng seemed to be deep in thought.

He then gestured for Pandor to come inside and watch as new supplies were delivered.

The celestial spirit in his mind laughed and nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad."

"These Imperials do have some integrity; the repair supplies I requested were basically delivered to the vicinity of the wilderness."

Her other intelligent clone is still inside the Windrider, currently taking inventory of other handover supplies.

Those are all resources for repairing the Windrush.

Because the fortress was difficult to enter and exit easily, Chen Feng simply had the Empire transport the supplies to a designated location, and then Yan Changkong would pick them up.

They weren't worried about being targeted by the Empire for a thorough investigation.

His temporary residence at Fortress No. 7 is itself a deterrent.

Moreover, Yan Changkong was quite powerful, and with the help of the arrangements and cover left by the Colossus of Aegis, he was able to evade the Empire's detection.

"How long do you estimate it will take to repair the [Windrush]?"

Chen Feng immediately asked, as this concerned whether they could return to Earth.

"It'll be soon. The other people you summoned are quite reliable and they're very quick."

"If the subsequent handover of supplies goes smoothly, it can be completed within a month."

"Moreover, to tell you the truth, I have roughly detected the weak signal emitted by the [Radiant], and I am confident that I can build a stable jump node."

Xingling said confidently, and Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Because the Colossus of Aegis is undergoing a transformation, it is difficult for it to act easily.

So in the past few days, he summoned two resurrected heroic spirits to assist the celestial spirits in repairing the Ark.

So far, everything is going smoothly and is moving closer to the expected outcome.

"Alright, I'll get back to work."

The Protoss gave one last message and then disappeared again.

Chen Feng didn't say much, and planned to continue absorbing new resources to accelerate his transformation.

dong dong!

However, a knocking sound suddenly rang out.

The gray fortress-like building welcomed guests once again.
As his senses swept over him, Chen Feng saw several familiar faces.

A team of elite cyborgs served as guards, and Xu Linshan, the fortress's highest commander, actually came to visit with several high-ranking lords.

The Imperial Major General Noel, who had led the way a few days ago, was also in the group.

“Mr. Pandor, we would like to pay a visit to Lord Flame.”

"I don't know."

The voice asking the question reached my ears from afar, and it was exceptionally clear in my perception.

Sensing the seriousness of Xu Linshan and the others, Chen Feng seemed to be deep in thought.

"Let them in."

He spoke calmly and walked into the living room with its steel floor.

The imposing Pandor obeyed the order and stepped aside to make way.

Seeing this, Xu Linshan and the others breathed a sigh of relief and then went into the house one after another.

"I wonder if you, Lord Yan, are finding the place comfortable?"

The figures took their seats one by one, and Xu Linshan asked politely.

"good."

With a slight nod, Chen Feng waved his hand, his intention subtly influencing reality, causing several cups of warm water to float over and land on their respective tables.

With a simple gesture, he made everyone's eyes narrow, because this was an ability different from other abilities that controlled flames.

"So, Lord Flamebringer has awakened Nen power?"

Xu Linshan exclaimed in admiration, "Another high-ranking lord plans to add new information to the intelligence report."

Chen Feng did not deny it upon hearing this; he was already used to being misunderstood.

Moreover, compared to explanation.

He was more concerned about the reason for their sudden visit.

"General Xu must have come on some important business, right?"

Chen Feng got straight to the point, not wanting to waste time with unnecessary words.

His attitude was not surprising.

The group of people who came exchanged glances, and then nodded to Xu Linshan, who looked old, and put down his water glass.

"I have indeed come here today with an important matter that I wish to inform Lord Yan Zhe."

"Have you ever heard of the Kuroshio, Yan Zhe?"

"Oh?"

Chen Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, surprised that the group had come to inquire about this matter.

Pandor, standing to one side, also turned cold, his mind filled with images of past dark apocalypses and wars of civilization.

"It seems that you are indeed knowledgeable and well-informed about this matter."

Judging from Chen Feng's expression, he guessed what was going on.

Xu Linshan then sighed.

"According to some records, the Black Tide is the natural enemy of all civilizations. It will destroy everything and no one can stop it."

"I thought this day was still far away, or even just a legend, but I never expected it."

He smiled helplessly, his expression somewhat bitter.

Chen Feng sensed something was wrong and noticed a heavy look on the faces of the group.

Why did General Xu suddenly say that?

"It seems you are unaware of this."

Sighing and shaking his head, Xu Linshan gestured to the Imperial Major General beside him, Noel, to report the intelligence.

"According to the investigation, the reason why the Taido Kingdom suddenly withdrew its troops in the last fortress war was because the Black Tide descended and attacked several main city areas in the south of the Taido Kingdom."

"Therefore, Serik and others had to withdraw troops from the legion to defend and hold the line, which barely stabilized the situation."

Simple words, yet they made the atmosphere in the room heavy and still for several breaths.

With a slight flicker in his eyes, Chen Feng knew that the fortress's high command had been trying to find out the reasons for Thailand's withdrawal of troops in order to guard against the resumption of war in the future.

And now, this result
"Based on the current situation, the Kuroshio Current appears to be expanding and is spreading throughout Thailand."

"Therefore, we have come to visit with only one request."

Speaking again, Xu Linshan looked at Chen Feng and said solemnly, "If the fortress also encounters a similar crisis, I humbly request Your Excellency Yan Zhe's generous assistance."

With a heavy tone, Chen Feng raised an eyebrow slightly.

The Black Tide is an indiscriminate spatial descent. Although the fortress is located on the border, it is entirely possible for evil gods and angels to bypass it.

Their eyes met, as if he sensed her doubt.

Xu Linshan sighed and then looked out the window: "It's not that we are afraid of death, but the key nodes of the Iron Curtain are also in the fortress, which is related to the defense line of the entire southern empire."

"Moreover, the [Imperial Heart] is still under repair, and it will be difficult to activate [High-Dimensional Teleportation] in the short term. No one can guarantee that the Black Tide will not suddenly appear during this period."

At this point, the other high-ranking lords all looked on nervously.

Having roughly grasped the meaning, Chen Feng thought of the [Iron Curtain] effect that the Celestials had mentioned.

This is a special device within its range that can block physical attacks of a certain intensity from a spatial perspective. It was originally created to guard against the Kuroshio Current.

A brief silence followed, and he pondered to himself.

Chen Feng thought of the several warships that the Thai Kingdom had successfully attacked, and wondered if the Empire had repaired the corresponding vulnerabilities.

Unaware of his thoughts, she mistakenly assumed he was going to refuse.

Xu Linshan and the others exchanged glances, and finally spoke earnestly again, making their request once more.

"The Empire has learned of this and is dispatching a large force."

"We are not asking you to stay and fight to the death, but we hope that if the Black Tide really occurs, the situation will reach its worst point."

"You can shelter some of the embers and take them away."
