The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2534 - 2523: Do You Have Any Other Choice?

Ye Chenfeng and Feng Wuji simultaneously held their breath.

Their eyes fixed unblinkingly on the darkness to the right, trying to sense any movement within it.

"Boom!" A thunderous sound echoed.

A tremendously powerful aura suddenly charged out from the darkness, and the surging energy waves slammed into Ye Chenfeng and Feng Wuji, forcing them to stagger six or seven steps backward.

A surge of blood rushed inside their bodies, causing Ye Chenfeng’s face to pale slightly, and a thread of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Feng Wuji’s condition wasn’t much better; his brows tightly furrowed into a "川" shape, blood continuously seeping from the corner of his mouth.

Ye Chenfeng was an Extreme Peak expert.

While Feng Wuji was an Initial Stage Divine Emperor Realm expert.

Just the aura rushing out from the darkness alone caused injuries to Ye Chenfeng and Feng Wuji. So what kind of creature lurked within the hidden darkness?

The breath being spread in the air was growing increasingly heavy.

A light emerged from the right, allowing Ye Chenfeng and Feng Wuji to clearly see the scene there.

Before them stood a beast approximately two meters tall.

The beast resembled an oversized lion but had a pair of eagle-like wings on its back.

Judging by the aura emanating from it, the creature should at least be at the Middle Stage Divine Emperor Realm level.

In the Divine Emperor Realm, crossing a minor stage results in immense changes in power, explaining why its aura alone could injure Ye Chenfeng and Feng Wuji, making them spit blood.

Upon seeing the beast, Feng Wuji’s eyes narrowed suddenly, and he involuntarily murmured, "Chaos Griffon? The beast once under Chang Manlong’s command?"

Upon hearing Feng Wuji’s murmur, the Chaos Griffon’s eyes shot out a piercing light, fixating tightly on Feng Wuji. Speaking in a slightly hoarse voice, it articulated, "Unexpectedly encountering someone who recognizes me in this era? Seems you’re from the Chaos Era?"

"How many years have I been trapped here? Are there still people from the Chaos Era alive? Many of the strong back then said the end of the Chaos Era was imminent. Could it be the Chaos Era never actually faced its doom?"

Chang Manlong was a renowned strong figure in the Chaos Era, having reached the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm and almost approaching the Eternal Life Realm. However, he wasn’t entirely an Eternal Life Realm expert.

The Chaos Griffon was the beast subdued by Chang Manlong.

Due to its rampant behavior, Chang Manlong ultimately sealed it in this location.

The disaster prophesied for the Chaos Era arrived as expected.

Because the Chaos Griffon was sealed here, its full power was locked away, allowing it to avoid the catastrophe of the Chaos Era.

However, only the seal alone couldn’t grant the Chaos Griffon such longevity. Despite its Middle Stage Divine Emperor Realm power, its lifespan ultimately has limits, making survival from the Chaos Era to present not feasible.

One might say that the Chaos Griffon was exceptionally lucky.

Around its seal, the Longevity Spirit Ganoderma grew; an extremely rare and even extinct mystical treasure that was almost unseen even in the Chaos Era.

Consuming the Longevity Spirit Ganoderma continuously extends the consumer’s lifespan without any side effects, with effects accumulating over time.

A significant amount of Longevity Spirit Ganoderma grew around the Chaos Griffon, allowing it to survive till now by consuming them.

As time passed.

The seal’s power weakened, and the Chaos Griffon regained its full strength.

With all the surrounding Longevity Spirit Ganoderma consumed, if the Chaos Griffon cannot find more lifespan-extending treasures, it will face death within a century.

The Chaos Griffon exhibited a black hue throughout its entire body.

It exuded rolling black spiritual energy, similar to Feng Wuji’s spiritual energy. The weakening seal over time released a sinister energy from the Chaos Griffon that gathered in Heaven’s Skeleton Cave for years, facilitating Feng Wuji’s recovery to the Initial Stage Divine Emperor Realm, which isn’t all that strange now.

A black iron chain bound the Chaos Griffon’s neck, densely inscribed with formations, indicating that the chain was no ordinary artifact.

It likely falls within the realm of Immortal Artifacts.

"You two fellows, do you not plan to answer my question? My patience isn’t great."

"If you obediently respond, I may keep you company here for a while, allowing you to live a bit longer."

The Chaos Griffon’s gaze fixated on Ye Chenfeng and Feng Wuji.

The two endlessly extending black claws must originate from this Chaos Griffon.

The Chaos Griffon could enlarge or shrink its body; at its gigantic form, it resembled a mountain, or it could shrink to the size of a small kitten.

Ye Chenfeng sensed the surroundings; he found his aura completely unable to permeate outwards, restrained by a power here. The restraint is extraordinary, and with his current power, leaving here is impossible; moreover, the place entirely restricts the Space Law.

Ye Chenfeng glanced at the Chaos Griffon.

Perhaps leaving relied on hoping for this fellow’s help.

Ye Chenfeng silently pondered, then spoke, "The Chaos Era has long since passed; hardly anyone from that era remains today."

"I see that you’re not in your best condition either. With your abilities, you certainly can’t leave here."

"How about we make a deal?"

"I might help you remove the iron chain around your neck, but during this period, you mustn’t attack me, and when the time comes, you’ll take me with you to leave, alright?"

The Chaos Griffon glared at Ye Chenfeng, "Why should I trust you? You’re just a mere Extreme Peak kid; can you really grant me freedom?"

Ye Chenfeng carelessly shrugged, "Trust me or not. Can you leave here on your own? Do you have any other option right now?"

"Believe in me, and you won’t suffer a loss, with even a hint of hope for freedom. I believe you should make the correct choice."

Seeing Ye Chenfeng straightforwardly negotiating with the Chaos Griffon, Feng Wuji felt an intensely bad premonition; his current strength also wasn’t matched against the Chaos Griffon, so he certainly couldn’t just stand by passively.

"You want to trust an Extreme Peak kid? He absolutely cannot grant you freedom."
