Chapter 504: Chapter 453: Born a Robber?
Thud Thud Thud!!
A short while later, after the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Lin Feng caught up to Li Hai.
At this moment, Li Hai’s face turned ashen, cold sweat beading on his forehead - partly due to the pressure from the Heavenly Ladder and partly from being terrified by Lin Feng.
He wanted to run, but his legs felt as if they’d been filled with lead, so heavy that his body trembled slightly under the relentless oppression, leaving him utterly unable to flee.
"Lin Feng, you... what do you want to do?"
Li Hai’s face twisted in displeasure, and he even struggled to speak.
"What do I want to do? Last time in Sky Wind Valley, you wanted to kill me!" Lin Feng stepped onto the same stair as Li Hai and stood beside him, a mocking smile on his lips.
"This...!"
Li Hai’s expression shifted dramatically as he said in a deep voice, "Lin Feng, I was wrong last time! Please let me off this time!"
Li Hai knew he was no match for Lin Feng, and having entered the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace, he did not wish to die here, so he took the initiative to apologize to Lin Feng.
"Let you off? Give me one good reason to do so," Lin Feng said with a laugh.
Hearing this, Li Hai’s mind raced, and he quickly said, "As for the treasures of heaven and earth, everyone competes for them based on their own abilities. You stole the Millennium Stone Milk, I would of course make a move against you, and if I were the one who had stolen the Millennium Stone Milk, you would also make a move against me, wouldn’t you? So, I haven’t committed any grave error. Here, I offer you a sincere apology!"
Li Hai said these words earnestly, with a serious demeanor.
"Oh?"
Lin Feng chuckled upon hearing this; the other party did indeed have a point.
However! Lin Feng had never intended to kill him, but though a death penalty may be spared, a lesser punishment could not!
"Forgiving you is possible!"
Lin Feng nodded his head, and Li Hai breathed a sigh of relief, but Lin Feng’s next words immediately turned his face an iron shade of blue.
"Apart from the clothes you’re wearing, hand over everything else on you!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
"You...!" Li Hai was so angry that he almost spat blood.
"What ’you’? Hand it over, or die!"
Lin Feng shouted coldly, raising a hand and slowly reaching towards Li Hai’s neck.
Li Hai was shocked and just as Lin Feng’s hand was about to touch his neck, Li Hai yelled in panic, "I’ll hand it over, I’ll hand it over!"
Ultimately, Li Hai compromised and handed over his storage ring to Lin Feng.
Li Hai’s shout couldn’t help but cause a stir among the people both ahead and behind them. Upon seeing this, everyone was dumbstruck – Lin Feng was actually robbing people on the Heavenly Ascending Ladder, this sacred place of testing!
Some who had already been robbed by Lin Feng twitched in annoyance.
For heaven’s sake! Was this guy a born robber? Wherever he went, he never forgot to commit robbery, plucking every feather from the passing geese!
After confiscating Li Hai’s Storage Ring, Lin Feng smiled contentedly. Robbing on the Heavenly Ascending Ladder was indeed very simple since people couldn’t even run away if they wanted to!
Lin Feng’s spirit soared once again as he eyed the twenty-odd people ahead of him, his gaze filled with an inexplicable smile. What an opportunity!
To accrue more wealth, Lin Feng certainly wouldn’t miss out. His path to cultivation, whether it be for his physical body, his Cultivation, or even purchasing Meteor to enhance his Star Level, all required Spirit Stones – an endless pit of expenditure.
The more wealth he accumulated, the faster his strength would grow.
Not far ahead of Li Hai was Fang Qingyun. Lin Feng glanced at her graceful figure and started moving towards her once again.
Fang Qingyun, having seen what happened to Li Hai, was already pale. On seeing Lin Feng approach, she had no choice but to hasten her pace and walk faster.
However, her speed was obvious much slower than Lin Feng’s and in no time, she too was caught up by him.
"There’s no need for me to speak any further, right? Be conscious of your situation!"
Lin Feng said indifferently.
"Lin Feng, even if it kills me, I will not hand over the Storage Ring!"
Fang Qingyun, although a woman, was even more forceful than Li Hai, her teeth tightly clenched and her face resolute.
"Is that so?"
Lin Feng mocked, giving Fang Qingyun an up and down look, and laughed, "If that’s the case, then I’ll strip you of your clothes and let everyone admire the body of a beautiful woman!"
Lin Feng had no patience with this woman, who had tried to harm him several times before.
Of course, if she truly was unwilling to hand over the Storage Ring, Lin Feng would forcefully take it; as for stripping off clothes, that was something he couldn’t really do – he was merely using it to intimidate her.
Fang Qingyun froze, and then her face flushed red in an instant.
"Lin Feng, you... you are despicable! Shameless!"
Fang Qingyun’s face turned beet red, and she yelled angrily. The extreme emotion almost caused her to be overwhelmed by the surrounding pressure and be crushed to the ground.
"Are you handing it over or not? If you’re not, I’ll make a move."
Lin Feng attitudinizied as though he would really take action.
In the end, Fang Qingyun relented, handing over her Storage Ring obediently.
Otherwise, if Lin Feng really did strip her of her clothes in front of so many, the proud and high-spirited her would never be able to tolerate it. This would be far more humiliating than killing her a thousand times over.
Having dealt with Fang Qingyun, Lin Feng continued his ascent. However, above the eight-hundredth step of the Heavenly Ladder, the pressure became immense. Almost no abilities could be used, as not only True Yuan was impossible to circulate, even the Star power was suppressed, leaving it unable to be activated. Lin Feng was forced to stop for a short while after each step.
His mighty physical body was struggling under the stress, with his bones creaking.
However, this was still far from Lin Feng’s limit. A faint golden light appeared on his body, and pale golden scales covered him from head to toe.
Huff!
Erupting with his strongest physical state, the pressure on Lin Feng greatly lessened, and he slightly quickened his pace again, proceeding upwards.
All along the way, he left nothing unclaimed, Lin Feng spared not a single person.
