Chapter 209: Right Thing At The Right Time
The Phoenix race was Southern Border’s ruler.
Few other races were well known for their strength, and they could even match the sacred grounds.
The Peacock race and Great Golden-Winged Eagle race were the best two among those races, and they were no weaker than any sacred ground.
The Great Golden-Winged Eagle race specialized in speed and attack, while the Peacock race was good in Mighty Prowess of the five elements.
The Rainbow Divine Light was the Peacock race’s strongest heritage art. It was said that only the purest peacock bloodline born with the Five Elements Constitution had the right to cultivate on this Mighty Prowess.
After one mastered this art, they could absorb anything that possessed one of the five elements’ attributes.
Kong Meng was the Peacock that possessed the purest bloodline in the last millennium.
When she had been born, a five-colored cloud had appeared above Peacock Village, its light covering the entire area.
The peacock statue deep in the village had awakened and passed down the heritage art to Kong Meng.
Kong Meng had become the Peacock Princess ever since and was even more respected than most elders.
The reason was very simple—the Peacock race could do with fewer elders or even decision-makers. However, Kong Meng was their only hope to bring glory to the race. Thus, they had to ensure nothing would go wrong!
A five-colored Peacock was said to have slaughtered an Immortal before!
Although Kong Meng was only 20 years old, she was undefeated.
Due to her Rainbow Divine Light, no one in Southern Border could beat her, and even the royal princess had lost to her. She was also ranked the first on Southern Border’s Golden Core List.
Naturally, many other talented cultivators doubted her ability. Thus, seven men from the Golden Core List had teamed together and challenged Kong Meng. In the end, they had been defeated in an instant.
Kong Meng had become well known then!
Some people would even compare her with the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
According to rumors, the Phoenix Queen liked Kong Meng very much and would take her as her goddaughter. Thus, Kong Meng was highly regarded among the Southern Border demons.
She was only standing in front of Qin Yundi smilingly, yet he could feel the pressure suffocating him.
She was a real warrior who had never tasted defeat before. Although her cultivation was suppressed to the Foundation Establishment stage, she was still a very troublesome opponent.
“You... are that person from the Peacock race?”
Qin Yundi started to sweat, and his Yin-Yang Demon-Penetrating Gun was ready for attack.
“This Dharma artifact is really interesting.”
Kong Meng played with Qin Yundi’s gun, and it fell apart with a glowing light.
Boom!
The Yin-Yang Demon-Penetrating Gun self-destructed, and the impact was rather strong. However, it did not hurt Kong Meng at all.
The Rainbow Divine Light had blocked the explosion accurately.
“What a great array formation! Seems like an expert set it.”
Kong Meng smiled and looked at Qin Yundi. “I like this Dharma artifact very much. I’ll not kill you if you give me some of them.”
I’ll not kill you if you give me some of them?
Kong Meng’s tone was rather serious about it.
The relationship between humans and demons was not good to begin with. Although Kong Meng did not wish to exterminate humans, she was ready to engage in battle. Just like how hunters would not empathize with their prey, the demons did not show any mercy at all.
Qin Yundi ground his teeth and said, “You are daydreaming!”
He controlled the remaining 63 Yin-Yang Demon-Penetrating Guns and fired them. The gun barrels shot out a rain of bullets at Kong Meng.
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
...
The sudden attack terrified Jin Yu and He Wushuang. Their guns had already given them nasty wounds, and there was no way for them to hide.
“You cannot beat me,” Kong Meng said confidently. She made a hand seal, and a peacock opened its tail. Then a huge light shield appeared in front of her, blocking all the bullets effortlessly.
“How can that be!?”
Qin Yundi was shocked by what happened. That attack could even penetrate one’s Golden Core Restriction Realm!
With more than 60 simultaneous attacks, even peak Golden Core cultivators had to be extremely careful.
How did she manage to block all the attacks here in the Primordial Battlefield when their cultivation level was suppressed at the Foundation Establishment stage?
“You are really rude,” Kong Meng said calmly and moved her finger.
The Rainbow Divine Light appeared out of nowhere and engulfed dozens of Yin-Yang Demon-Penetrating Guns.
Qin Yundi quickly retreated with the rest of his weapons. He would have lost all his weapons if he did not respond in time.
“She is so strong!”
Qin Yundi felt a chill coursing through his spine.
It was too difficult for him to fight against her!
Maybe only his Senior Brother could handle her!
Jin Yu and He Wushuang were thrilled upon seeing that Kong Meng had the upper hand.
“Human! You should really take a look at the mirror! If there was no level suppression in the Primordial Battlefield, I could destroy you alone! Fairy Kong Meng! Just absorb all the weapons he has. We will tear him apart slowly.”
...
Kong Meng played with the guns in her hand and shook her head. “He let his friend escape first, and this is rather brave. He is not the guy I need right now. I just need the Divine Firmament Saint today!”
Kong Meng said, “Stop struggling and ask your Senior Brother to come here and save you. I’m really interested to see how strong he is!”
Kong Meng’s eyes were glowing with passion.
She was too strong and too lonely!
The Rainbow Divine Light had accompanied her since birth, and her peers could never last more than 10 moves when she trained with them. Thus, Kong Meng did not have a very easy life like everyone’s assumptions.
She really hoped she could meet one opponent that could match evenly with her or even beat her during battle.
Helping Jin Yu was not her top priority here in Eastern Wilderness. She had heard that an extremely talented cultivator was in Eastern Wilderness—the Saint of the Purple Mansion! He had great providence and connections to the Black Dragon Island. He could become a Thearch in the future.
Kong Meng hoped to fight with that Saint!
If her Rainbow Divine Light could be improved because of their battle, it would be much better!
However, Kong Meng did not expect the Primordial Battlefield to bring her such a surprise.
Qin Yundi was much stronger than Kong Meng’s expectations.
Jin Yu and He Wushuang were among the top ten cultivators on the Southern Border Golden Core List. Although they were the lowest-ranked and the power they could currently exert was of the Foundation Establishment stage, they could easily beat a Golden Core cultivator!
However, after taking turns to take on Qin Yundi, they had not even managed to get the upper hand. If Kong Meng had not helped in time, they would have been defeated by now.
Also, for some reason, such a powerful cultivator admired the Divine Firmament Saint, whose name was unknown.
Naturally, this raised Kong Meng’s interest regarding the Divine Firmament Saint. She wished to have a great time while fighting with this Saint!
Qin Yundi scoffed and looked at Kong Meng straight in the eyes. “I have contacted my Senior Brother. If you really think you are strong, just wait in the valley.
“So what if you have defeated me? Your power is nothing compared to my Senior Brother. He can finish you off with a single strike!”
Jin Yu had finished applying medicine to his wound and was looking at Qin Yundi with hatred.
“Fairy Kong Meng, let’s not waste time with this guy. Kill him first!”
Kong Meng glared at him and said, “Are you telling me what to do?”
Jin Yu felt immense pressure and quickly explained, “I’m sorry, Fairy Kong Meng! I didn’t mean to!”
Kong Meng nodded and closed her eyes. She said excitedly, “I can feel a power that is awakening. He’s strong. Strong enough to make my heart beat faster. That is the Divine Firmament Saint? Not bad!”
Upon seeing Kong Meng walk toward the valley, Qin Yundi became nervous and wanted to stop her.
At that moment, a voice echoed from the valley, “Junior Brother Yundi, good job for standing your ground. Just let them in.”
It was a familiar voice!
Qin Yundi quickly let go of all his worries and relaxed.
It’s Senior Brother! He’s awake!
Qin Yundi felt that as long as his Senior Brother was there, he had nothing to worry about.
Southern Border’s geniuses? Peacock Princess?
They are nothing compared to my Senior Brother Shen Tian!
What a proud peacock! Just you wait, my Senior Brother will defeat you in no time!
...
Qin Yundi stored his Yin-Yang Demon-Penetrating Guns and entered the valley.
Kong Meng did not bother if it was a trap and followed after him.
There were about ten young cultivators in the valley... Well, not all were young. There were some old men, and they looked out of place.
Kong Meng ignored all of them and looked at Shen Tian. Her fierce stare softened the moment she saw him, while the Rainbow Divine Light behind her became less intense too. It looked like a beautiful rainbow now.
“Are you the Saint from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground? We will tear you into pieces!”
Jin Yu’s animosity toward the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground had only increased after Qin Yundi injured him.
At the same time, upon seeing that Shen Tian was better looking than him, his hatred increased much more.
He said, “Fairy Kong Meng, please help me to defeat this man! I’ll tear him into—”
Before Jin Yu could finish, Kong Meng glared at him, and he kept quiet.
She was exuding a different kind of aura now. It was soft and even... friendly!?
“Jin Yu! Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus is the one that killed your elder. What does that have to do with the Divine Firmament Saint?
“You have to do the right thing at the right time. I’m only here to have a friendly spar with the Saint.
“Do not focus your anger on the wrong person and put shame on the Feather race.”
Then, she looked at Shen Tian with a blushed expression.
“Are you the Divine Firmament Saint? Could I spar with you?”
