One bird-man, one pit!

Chu Feng's footwork was utterly bizarre. Alternating between the Gale Step, the Flash Step, and the Sound Wave Step, he subjected Dong Zhe to a relentless barrage of wind pillars, strange lights, and eerie sounds.

While the violent wind pillars alone were enough to give Dong Zhe a headache, the strange lights and eerie sounds were what truly caught him off guard. Even the defense of his Force Convergence Art, pushed to its absolute limit, failed to block their piercing attacks.

"Dong Zhe, your time is up!"

Just as Dong Zhe's heart pounded with dread, Chu Feng's words rang in his ear like a thunderclap.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Shielded by two wind pillars, Chu Feng leaped into the air. The tip of the Thunder-Striking Gale Spear in his hand flickered with faint bolts of lightning as he thrust it straight down at Dong Zhe's head!

"Force Convergence Art!"

Dong Zhe roared as well, raising his golden spear to parry Chu Feng's strike.

Clang!

Accompanied by a deafening crash, the long spears in both Chu Feng and Dong Zhe's hands were jarred from their grips simultaneously.

Before touching down, Chu Feng thrust out his Heavenly King Mountain-Splitting Palm with immense force. Reacting with lightning speed, Dong Zhe countered with a dual-palm strike of his own.

Bang!

Their four palms collided heavily together!

"Chu Feng, you dare to clash palms with me? You're dead! Let me show you the overbearing might of the Force Convergence Art!"

A grim smile crossed Dong Zhe's face as he channeled all his strength into his palms.

"Let's see who survives till the end!"

Chu Feng retorted. The moment his voice fell, a crisp rustle echoed behind him as the perfect inverted-triangle shape manifested on his back, and the oppressive aura of the battle python erupted fully.

Chu Feng felt a gravitational force akin to a collapsing mountain press down upon him from Dong Zhe—amounting to at least one hundred and fifty thousand catties of strength!

In the blink of an eye, Dong Zhe's physical outline suddenly expanded by a size, and the force bearing down on Chu Feng surged dramatically.

Four hundred and fifty thousand catties!

Chu Feng distinctly felt this formidable gravity, while simultaneously channeling his internal qi into the Five Elements Qi Seal on his wrist.

Chu Feng instantly poured fifteen thousand catties of force into it.

As that much force was infused into the Five Elements Qi Seal—which resembled a bracelet adorned with a black circular stone talisman on the back of the hand—it suddenly seemed to spring to life, instantly radiating a five-colored glow!

The very next moment, Chu Feng felt the internal qi within his dantian and the strength throughout his entire body surge explosively, multiplying fivefold in an instant!

"True to its reputation as a tenth-grade armament, this Five Elements Qi Seal is just as little sister Jinsheng said: invest one part of strength, and you immediately reap five parts in return! I invested one hundred and fifty thousand catties of force, and now I've gained seven hundred and fifty thousand catties!"

Chu Feng felt boundless elation in his heart.

Seven hundred and fifty thousand catties of force—that equaled Chu Feng's entire personal physical strength combined.

This Five Elements Qi Seal effectively doubled Chu Feng's strength, pushing it to a colossal magnitude of one million five hundred thousand catties!

"Force Convergence Art! Third Stage!"

At that moment, Dong Zhe suddenly bellowed, driving the Force Convergence Art to its third stage.

When the forty-five thousand catties of force from the second stage reached the third stage, it translated to a staggering one million three hundred and fifty thousand catties of gravitational force!

Under this state, both Chu Feng and Dong Zhe unleashed their powers to the absolute limit. Their bodily outlines became extremely exaggerated; not only did they grow several times larger, but their forms even became somewhat distorted!

"Young Master Dong Zhe has unleashed the third stage of the Force Convergence Art. He will surely grind Chu Feng to death!"

"Indeed! No matter how strong Chu Feng is, he absolutely lacks the ability to resist the third-stage Force Convergence Art!"

"Chu Feng is a dead man..."

Before the male clan stewards could finish speaking, they abruptly fell silent together.

Because they saw that, at this exact moment, Dong Zhe's tiptoes were actually lifting slowly off the ground, being carried upward by Chu Feng's palms, gradually pried away from the earth!

"Th-This... How is this possible?"

"Young Master Dong Zhe's Force Convergence Art has reached the third stage, granting his flesh a colossal strength of one million three hundred and fifty thousand catties. How could he possibly be... be lifted?"

"If Chu Feng can lift Young Master Dong Zhe, just how many hundreds of thousands of catties of strength does he possess?"

The stewards who had just been certain of Chu Feng's doom were dumbstruck once more, hardly believing the scene unfolding before their eyes.

Dong Zhe's physical outline was immensely bloated, resembling a giant vat, while Chu Feng stood rooted to the spot as immovable as a mountain. His palms seemed glued to Dong Zhe's, steadily prying the latter's flesh off the ground!

One inch.
Two inches.
One foot.
Two feet!

By now, Chu Feng had hoisted Dong Zhe's body more than two feet above the ice layer!

Under the influence of gravity, Dong Zhe's physical form looked like a large water vat, while Chu Feng's looked like a young elephant.

The current scene looked as though a young elephant—Chu Feng—had used its trunk to hoist a giant water vat—Dong Zhe—up into the air.

Chu Feng stood as steady as a mountain, while Dong Zhe was rendered completely immobile.

"Brother Feng truly possesses the strength to pull up mountains! Even with a gravitational force of one million three hundred and fifty thousand catties, Young Master Dong Zhe is nothing more than a scarecrow in Brother Feng's hands, easily lifted into the air!"

Bai Naizhao was filled with utmost admiration, staring wide-eyed at this breathtaking scene while not forgetting to cast a scornful glance at the stewards.

"Big Brother Chu Feng, you're amazing!"

The gaze Yuzui cast upon Chu Feng was filled with even more pleasant surprise and disbelief. Her tender eyes seemed irresistibly drawn to Chu Feng's figure, completely unwilling to look away.

"Big Brother Chu Feng is truly a titan among titans, capable of pushing the power of my Five Elements Qi Seal to its absolute limit! Big Brother Chu Feng has proven with his actions that not only has he defeated Dong Zhe, but my Five Elements Qi Seal has also surpassed Dong Zhe's Force Convergence Art! Ah, exhilarating, simply exhilarating!"

Jinsheng skipped and hopped about with a look of sheer gratification.

Meanwhile, on the ice a few yards away, Dong Zhe hung suspended in mid-air by Chu Feng, unable to descend and incapable of breaking free. His body was firmly stuck to Chu Feng's tremendous force.

In a state of weightlessness, Dong Zhe found it even harder to control his physical strength and qi. Once his internal qi failed to sustain itself, the effects of the Force Convergence Art would rapidly dissipate, and the Heavenly King phenomenon enveloping his body would likewise vanish into thin air.

One could say that Dong Zhe's combat prowess was currently heading downhill. The longer the delay, the lower his combat power would drop, until eventually, Chu Feng wouldn't even need to strike for Dong Zhe to be defeated without a fight!

"Chu Feng! Even if I, Dong Zhe, must die, I will die fighting; I will not sit idly by and await my doom!"

Dong Zhe suddenly roared. Before his strength completely scattered and his Qi and blood dried up, he unleashed his remaining power. His physical outline expanded once more, and the two Heavenly King phenomena on his body detached from his flesh, launching an attack toward Chu Feng.

"I'm afraid dying won't be that easy for you either!"

As the words left Chu Feng's mouth, the five Heavenly King phenomena enveloping his body simultaneously sprang into action.

The two Heavenly Kings wielding double vajra mallets and a giant flaming sword swept their mallets sideways and brought the giant sword down in a vertical chop, shattering Dong Zhe's two Heavenly King phenomena into nothingness.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly King holding the heavy black iron chain swung the thick chain, hurling it straight around Dong Zhe's neck!

"Ugh!"

With his body glued in mid-air by Chu Feng, Dong Zhe naturally could not evade the attack of the iron chain. Encircled by the qi-condensed chain around his throat, his breath instantly choked in his windpipe.

"Dong Zhe, since you knew my reputation in the Nine Mountains and Eighteen Veins, you still dared to provoke and offend me! Now, I will make you pay the price for your actions!"

With that said, Chu Feng reined in his internal qi, recalling the five Heavenly King phenomena meant to execute Dong Zhe, and slightly relaxed the force in his palms.

The next moment, Dong Zhe's weightless body plummeted downward, only to be caught squarely in Chu Feng's grip.

Without a second word, Chu Feng treated Dong Zhe like a wooden doll, spinning him upside down with his head pointing straight at the ground. Then, with a resounding roar, he drove Dong Zhe fiercely downward into the ice layer!

Crack!

Dong Zhe's skull crashed heavily against the ice. With this single downward plunge by Chu Feng—unleashing the strength of fifty Vajra Battle Rhinoceroses—

The entire massive ice sheet trembled violently!

Amidst the tremor, Dong Zhe's body was driven entirely into the ice, leaving only the soles of his boots exposed on the surface while the rest of his torso was buried deep within.

"Ah!"

Witnessing this horrifying scene, the steward who had just predicted Chu Feng's certain death collapsed to the ground in terror, trembling uncontrollably.

With a flick of his figure, Chu Feng instantly closed the distance to this steward, hauled him up by the collar, and repeated the process. He inverted the steward's body headfirst and, employing the martial technique of a warrior planting a banner, drove him viciously into the ice layer as well.

Crack!
Crack!
Crack, crack, crack!

In the blink of an eye, all five male stewards who had been making a racket earlier met the exact same fate as Dong Zhe.

Six men, six pits!

All six bodies were plunged vertically into the ice, leaving only their feet protruding outside.

Across the vast, desolate ice surface, the twelve feet of the six men stood out as conspicuously as a dozen unhewn tree stumps.

A piercing cold wind swept past, whipping up layers of fine snow across the ice sheet, adding a touch of desolate grandeur to the battle that had just concluded.

"Splendid!"

Jinsheng suddenly leaped up, skipped over to Chu Feng's side, and said, "Big Brother Chu Feng, your method of killing is simply peerless! What is this move called?"

"This move is called: One Jackass, One Pit!"

Chu Feng replied with a faint smile, gradually recalling his internal qi and physical strength as his physique calmed down.

"One Jackass, One Pit? That name is truly matchless! Big Brother Chu Feng, you simply must teach me!"

As she spoke, Jinsheng began mimicking Chu Feng's previous actions, clearly eager to bury someone headfirst into the ice with only their feet sticking out.

"Hehe, then I shall teach you!"

With a light smile, Chu Feng suddenly wrapped his arms around Jinsheng, instantly inverting her delicate little body so that her head pointed toward the ground as well.

"Ah!"

Jinsheng let out a shriek with all her might, her pink, tender arms instinctively wrapping tightly around Chu Feng's waist. Yet, as a result, her delicate little face happened to press right against a sensitive spot on Chu Feng.

"Big Brother Chu Feng, put me down quickly! I don't want to learn this jackass method of yours anymore! If you don't put me down—hehe—your little life will be in my hands! My bite is fierce, I can chew through meat like mud!"

Hanging upside down, Jinsheng cried out loudly.

"Haha, don't try to scare me, I surrender!"

Laughing heartily, Chu Feng immediately flipped Jinsheng right-side up and set her down before him.

After exchanging a few more cheerful banter, the men and women nearby finally snapped out of their stupor.
