Peerless Martial God Chapter 2168: Start From The Beginning!

Chapter 2168: Start From The Beginning!
Back around the platforms, the Diviner was standing in the air. The Diviner, as well as everyone else could clearly see what was going on there. The emperors had arrived first, and were soon followed by cultivators of the Di Qi layer.
“Is that the Destiny Technique?!” whispered an old man, looking at the scenery. He knew that everything here was fake, an illusion. However, for the people in there, it all looked real.
“They’re fighting at the lowest level, their cultivation level is oppressed. They also don’t have any spells or strength.”
“They have nothing anymore. They have to rise again, they’re starting from scratch. That’s the most rudimentary and yet the most complex part of the Meeting. Many people will get eliminated,” the watchers were discussing.
The crowd from Godly Clouds City could also see the Diviner’s fake world. It was just like everything was happening before them.
In the illusionary world, many fighters bumped into beasts, many others were annoyed to have lost their special powers. Some people were torn apart by powerful beasts.
“Ah…” a horrible shriek spread in the air, the crowd shivered. They looked at the top of a pillar, where someone slowly collapsed and their Qi disappeared.
“Dead?” When the crowd saw that, they frowned in shock. Wasn’t it an illusion? Why was that person dead? Their real bodies hadn’t even gone into the illusion!
“Powerful illusions are connected to the real world. The Diviner is so powerful that he can create such things!” others admonished them, looking at that person. Their hearts sped up. A genius had fallen already! Many people imagined what would have happened to them if they had been there…
“I warned all the participants that they could fall here. If they thought that it didn’t matter, that they would, at most, be eliminated, they weren’t determined enough. People have to understand that they can die,” said the Diviner calmly.
The crowd’s hearts skipped a beat. People who participated in the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds were geniuses, and determined. Only one person had fallen so far…

Inside the illusionary world…
Lin Feng was in a forest, where he realized that the biggest problem wasn’t that his cultivation level was restrained, it wasn’t that his physical strength was restrained either, the biggest problem was that his memories were blurry. His spells, skills, and techniques were all blurred. If he wanted to obtain strength again, he had to start from scratch. It was as if his brain had turned into a completely blank page.
Of course, a blank page was perfect to draw upon.
A strong wind started blowing, and some bestial Qi filled the air. Before, such a bestial Qi would have seemed extremely weak in front of Lin Feng. However, at that moment, he had the impression it was powerful. A great roc appeared and looked at him coldly. It looked thirsty for blood!
Oh no, a Tian level beast, and I have no spell, skill or technique!, thought Lin Feng, looking at the beast coldly. He started running, not wanting to fight at all. A moment before, he was asking himself questions about cultivation and how to pass the exam. Now he was just thinking about how to survive!
The great roc flew at him, shrieking. Lin Feng sensed the oppressive energies.
His eyes turned dark, and everything became distinct around him. That was the power of his spirit! He could only use the most original strength which his spirit granted him. He condensed pure Qi in his arms and continued flying away. However, the great roc was faster and caught up with him, opening its talons.
“Brother Lin Feng!” In the outside world, Yao Yao was shaking. How dangerous! Was the great roc going to rip Lin Feng to pieces?
Lin Feng suddenly stopped, turning and moving sideways, and the talons passed him by. Lin Feng grabbed the great roc’s leg, and punched its abdomen using pure Qi. The bird cawed furiously as a hole appeared in its guts. But then it pushed Lin Feng from above and Lin Feng was driven down to the ground.
However, he quickly crawled back up, turning his head and looking at the injured great roc. The great roc opened his wings, rose up and flew away. Blood dripped as it flew away.
Lin Feng took a deep breath. How dangerous! He hadn’t thought the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds would be so complicated. Of course, Lin Feng was still convinced he could pass. Even though he had no spells, techniques or skills, he had experience. Rising back would be no problem!

Lin Feng continued walking, even more determined now. Even though Tian level cultivators could fly, Lin Feng didn’t dare at this time, as there were too many dangerous beasts in the forest. If he drew the beasts’ attention, even ten lives wouldn’t be enough.
Tian level cultivators can condense pure Qi. Apart from pure Qi, they can also use intent to fight. Even if I understand only one type of intent, it should be easy, thought Lin Feng as he continued walking. Quickly, he bumped into another powerful beast, a demon fox. It looked into his eyes, Lin Feng had the impression he had fallen into an illusion.
At that moment, the fox stared at Lin Feng, Lin Feng suddenly saw a celestial woman. It was Meng Qing. He surprisingly could see Meng Qing there.
Lin Feng bit his lips to draw blood. Meng Qing, the Snow Clan… his eyes became ice-cold. As the fox was attacking him, he took a step backwards, raised his fist and then punched out in the direction of the fox’s head.
Lin Feng’s clothes were torn apart. A burning wound appeared on his hip. He had almost been killed!
The fox collapsed. Lin Feng tore the fox’s thorax violently, he lifted it and absorbed the strength it contained. He continued on, still determined. He had to understand the mechanisms of the Diviner’s world. Therefore, even in the event of danger, he had to find solutions. Problems would arise if he didn’t become strong quickly enough in comparison to other people.
Lin Feng continued walking in the forest aimlessly. He didn’t need a target destination, he needed strength. He encountered many dangers, and his clothes were soon completely shredded, but he still continued on relentlessly.

Lin Feng saw a monumental earthworm in the forest. It could spit fire, but it was extremely slow. Lin Feng moved like the wind, swift and agile, like a petal. That was the intent he had studied these days. He landed before the earthworm and pure fire Qi attacked the earthworm’s body. However, the attack didn’t kill it!
“What an incredible defense!” At the same time, he jumped away, and a wind made of sword strength shot towards the earthworm’s back. The earthworm roared in fury.
Lin Feng attacked it a few times before the sword pure Qi crashed into the earthworm’s only eye.
After a short time, Lin Feng managed to kill the earthworm. He headed into a cave and sat down cross-legged. He said to himself, “I can condense pure Qi, I should create a skill or a technique. That would help me break through.”
When Lin Feng was a Tian level cultivator, he used to use the cosmos-burning sun technique, and Tian level scriptures. Even though he could create a similar technique quickly because he had experience, he wanted to make an even more powerful technique. He wanted to absorb the strength of the earth and sky, condense pure Qi and break through. That way, he’d be able to face the other cultivators!
The geniuses were probably doing the same as him. Sooner or later, battles were going to start, and their lives would be in peril!
